[0028] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0029] To facilitate easy replacement and cleaning of the grinding structure during use, and to improve the cleanliness and hygiene of the grinding process, such as... Figure 1-6 As shown, the present invention provides a Chinese herbal medicine raw material grinding machine, which includes a base 1, a vertical plate 2, a top plate 3 and a grinding cylinder 20. The vertical plate 2 is provided at the top of the base 1 near the center. The top plate 3 and the extension plate 19 are respectively connected to one side of the top end and one side of the bottom end of the vertical plate 2. A push rod motor 4 is installed at the bottom of the top plate 3 through a fixed seat. The power output end of the push rod motor 4 is connected to a first lifting plate 5.

[0030] A second lifting plate 6 is provided at the lower end of the first lifting plate 5. A servo motor 9 is provided at the bottom of the second lifting plate 6 via a mounting base. The drive shaft of the servo motor 9 is connected to an upper grinding mechanism. A lower grinding mechanism is provided at the top of the extension plate 19. The upper grinding mechanism consists of an upper grinding plate 10, an annular protrusion 11, a sleeve block 12, a limiting sleeve 13, a fixing rod 14, a first positioning protrusion 15, a telescopic rod 16, a second cylindrical spring 17, and a vertical block 18. Vertical blocks 18 are provided at both ends of the top of the upper grinding plate 10. A limiting sleeve 13 is provided on the inner side of the vertical block 18. The upper end of the grinding plate 10 is provided with an annular protrusion 11. A sleeve block 12 is provided at the bottom of the annular protrusion 11 near the center. A fixing rod 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the annular protrusion 11. A reserved hole is provided at the other end of the annular protrusion 11. A telescopic rod 16 is sleeved in the reserved hole. A second columnar spring 17 is connected to the outer wall of the telescopic rod 16. The other end of the second columnar spring 17 is connected to the inner wall of the annular protrusion 11. The ends of the telescopic rod 16 and the fixing rod 14 are respectively located in the corresponding limiting sleeves 13. A lower grinding plate 21 is provided at the bottom of the grinding cylinder 20.

[0031] When in use, when it is necessary to disassemble the upper grinding plate 10, apply a force to the telescopic rod 16 at the center of the upper grinding plate 10, so that the telescopic rod 16 disengages from the corresponding fixed rod 14, thereby separating the annular protrusion 11 from the upper grinding plate 10.

[0032] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the present invention also includes a second positioning groove 26 at one end of the lower grinding plate 21, a second positioning protrusion 22 at one end of the inner wall of the grinding cylinder 20, and the second positioning groove 26 being sleeved on the outside of the second positioning protrusion 22.

[0033] In use, the second positioning protrusion 22 cooperates with the second positioning groove 26 to facilitate the positioning of the lower grinding plate 21 in the grinding cylinder 20. During disassembly, the lower grinding plate 21 can be picked up by the external suction cup and an upward force can be applied to the lower grinding plate 21 to remove it for easy replacement and cleaning.

[0034] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the present invention also includes a first positioning protrusion 15 at one end of the top of the fixed rod 14 and the telescopic rod 16, and a first positioning groove 27 is provided on the inner wall of the limiting sleeve 13 near the top, and the first positioning protrusion 15 is located in the corresponding first positioning groove 27.

[0035] In use, the first positioning groove 27 cooperates with the first positioning protrusion 15 to facilitate the limiting of the radial movement between the fixed rod 14 and the telescopic rod 16 and the limiting sleeve 13.

[0036] For example, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the present invention also includes a locking stud 25 at the bottom edge of the extension plate 19, and mounting holes are provided at the bottom of the extension plate 19 and at corresponding positions of the locking stud 25, with the locking stud 25 passing through the corresponding mounting holes.

[0037] During use, tightening the nut at the bottom of the locking stud 25 facilitates the locking connection between the grinding cylinder 20 and the extension plate 19.

[0038] For example, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the present invention also includes a fastening screw provided on one side of the sleeve 12 through a reserved hole, and the sleeve 12 and the output shaft of the servo motor 9 are fastened together by the screw.

[0039] In use, the connection between the sleeve 12 and the output shaft of the servo motor 9 can be easily made using screws.

[0040] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the present invention also includes a telescopic column 8 provided at the top of the second lifting plate 6 near the corner, and a through hole provided at the top of the first lifting plate 5 corresponding to the telescopic column 8. The top of the telescopic column 8 passes through the corresponding through hole, and a first columnar spring 7 is connected to the outside of the telescopic column 8. The top of the first columnar spring 7 is welded to the bottom of the first lifting plate 5.

[0041] In use, the first cylindrical spring 7, the telescopic column 8, and the second lifting plate 6 enable the second lifting plate 6 to float in a certain vertical direction when subjected to force.

[0042] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the present invention also includes spherical protrusions for grinding on the bottom of the upper grinding plate 10 and the top of the lower grinding plate 21.

[0043] When in use, the spherical protrusions allow the upper grinding plate 10 and the lower grinding plate 21 to effectively grind the Chinese medicinal materials located between them when they are close together.

[0044] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the present invention also includes a counterweight 24 installed by screws on the top of the base 1 away from the extension plate 19, and reinforcing ribs 23 provided at the corners where the bottom ends of the extension plate 19 connect to the upright plate 2.

[0045] During use, the counterweight 24 can be used to counterweight one side of the top of the extension plate 19 to prevent the grinding machine from tipping over during use. The reinforcing rib 23 can effectively improve the overall strength of the connection between the extension plate 19 and the vertical plate 2.

[0046] In use, this invention facilitates the positioning of the lower grinding plate 21 within the grinding cylinder 20 by engaging the second positioning protrusion 22 with the second positioning groove 26. The herbal raw materials to be ground are placed on the upper side of the lower grinding plate 21 at the bottom of the grinding cylinder 20. Both the push rod motor 4 and the servo motor 9 are powered by an external power source and controlled by an external control mechanism. When the push rod motor 4 operates, it moves the upper grinding plate 10 to a suitable position. When the upper grinding plate 10 reaches the grinding position, the servo motor 9 drives the sleeve block 12, the annular protrusion 11, and the upper grinding plate 10 to rotate. The engagement of the upper grinding plate 10 with the lower grinding plate 21 facilitates the grinding of the herbal raw materials located on the upper side of the lower grinding plate 21.

[0047] The first cylindrical spring 7, the telescopic column 8, and the second lifting plate 6 allow the second lifting plate 6 to float vertically under pressure, ensuring that the upper grinding plate 10 remains in close contact with the medicinal materials during the grinding process, which is beneficial for the grinding work.

[0048] When it is necessary to disassemble the upper grinding plate 10, simply apply a force upward to the center of the grinding plate 10 to the telescopic rod 16, which will cause the telescopic rod 16 to disengage from the corresponding fixed rod 14, thereby separating the annular protrusion 11 from the upper grinding plate 10. The lower grinding plate 21 can then be picked up by the external suction cup, and an upward force can be applied to the lower grinding plate 21 to remove it. During use, this grinding machine allows for convenient replacement and cleaning of the grinding structure as needed, which helps to improve the cleanliness and hygiene of the grinding process.
