Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medicine cutting machine technology, and in particular to a medicine cutting machine protection device. Background Technology

[0002] In the traditional Chinese medicine processing industry, the herb-cutting machine is a key piece of equipment, responsible for cutting medicinal materials into appropriate sizes. Its efficiency and cutting quality directly affect the benefits and quality of Chinese medicine production. However, during operation, the high-speed rotating blades of the herb-cutting machine pose significant safety hazards. Improper operation or negligence by workers can easily lead to accidents. Traditional herb-cutting machine protective shells are usually fixed structures. While these can prevent accidental contact with the blades to some extent, during equipment maintenance, workers need to spend a lot of time and effort removing the protective device to clean, replace, or adjust the blades, resulting in prolonged downtime and low maintenance efficiency.

[0010] According to the protective device for a medicine cutter described in this utility model, the upper surface of the second movable frame is provided with a through groove, and the position of the rotating frame is located inside the through groove. The through groove restricts the rotation range of the rotating frame and ensures that the rotating frame rotates within a predetermined path.

[0011] According to the present invention, a protective device for a medicine cutting machine is provided on the inner side of the main body of the medicine cutting machine. A rotating blade is installed on the inner wall of the medicine inlet. The rotating blade is located inside the protective shell. The built-in rotating blade can automatically cut the medicinal materials, improve production efficiency, and the blade is placed inside the protective shell to avoid accidental injury and effectively reduce potential accidents.

[0012] Beneficial effects:

[0013] The protective device for the herb cutter in this technical solution covers the rotating blades of the herb cutter body with a protective shell to prevent workers from accidentally touching the blades and to prevent herbs from splashing out. A motor rotates the protective shell to one side, exposing the rotating blades of the herb cutter body. This allows maintenance personnel to easily clean, replace blades, or adjust the equipment without removing the protective shell, improving maintenance efficiency. Simultaneously, LED spotlights move above the rotating blades to provide ample illumination for operation or maintenance, facilitating worker access. Furthermore, the angle of the LED spotlights can be adjusted by extending and retracting a pneumatic telescopic rod to ensure good illumination of key areas of the blades, accommodating maintenance or operation needs from different angles.

A motor 4 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of component 3. A gear 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of motor 4. A gear 6 is meshed with the outer surface of gear 5. A lead screw 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of gear 6, converting rotary motion into linear motion and ensuring that the component moves within a predetermined trajectory. The lead screw consists of a screw body and a nut. When the lead screw rotates, the nut moves linearly along the thread, thereby driving the connected component to move and achieving position adjustment. At the same time, lead screw 7 and lead screw 2 have the same structure, but the thread direction is opposite. A moving frame 8 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of lead screw 7. One end of the movable frame 8 is fixedly connected to a protective shell 9, which covers the blade to prevent accidental contact by workers and avoid accidents. It is made of impact-resistant plastic or metal and mechanically covers the high-speed rotating blade, forming a safe area. Gear 3 10 is meshed with the outer surface of gear 5. A lead screw 2 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of gear 3 10. The outer surface of lead screw 2 11 is threaded with a movable frame 2 12. A pneumatic telescopic rod 13 is hinged to the upper surface of movable frame 2 12, using pneumatic pressure to control the extension length and quickly adjust the angle of the lighting device. The telescopic rod 13 consists of a cylinder body, piston, and rod. Air is supplied to the cylinder to push the piston to move, thereby causing the telescopic rod to extend or shorten to achieve position adjustment. The output end of the pneumatic telescopic rod 13 is hinged to a rotating frame 14, and the lower end of the rotating frame 14 is fixedly connected to an LED spotlight 15, which provides sufficient and clear lighting during maintenance. The spotlight 15 consists of an LED light source, a lamp holder, and a power supply. A stable current is provided through the drive circuit to light up the LED light source, emitting light with a specific color temperature and brightness for illumination. The LED spotlight 15 is located above the protective shell 9.

[0023] One end of lead screw 7 and lead screw 11 is rotatably connected to fixed plate 2, and the other end of lead screw 7 and lead screw 11 is fixedly connected to limit plate. A protective cover is fixedly connected to the outer surface of fixed plate 2. Gear 1 5, gear 2 6 and gear 3 10 are located inside the protective cover. A guide frame 16 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the main body 1 of the medicine cutter. The outer surface of guide frame 16 is slidably connected to protective shell 9. An identification box 17 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the main body 1 of the medicine cutter. An identification plate is placed inside the identification box 17.

A through groove 18 is provided on the upper surface of moving frame 2 12. The rotating frame 14 is located inside the through groove 18. A medicine inlet is provided on the inner side of the main body 1 of the medicine cutter. A rotating blade is installed on the inner wall of the medicine inlet. The rotating blade is located inside the protective shell 9.

[0024] Specifically, a protective shell 9 covers the rotating blades of the main body 1 of the herb cutter, preventing workers from accidentally touching the blades and also preventing herbs from splashing out. Motor 4 rotates gear 5, causing gear 6, which meshes with gear 5, to rotate screw 7. This moves the protective shell 9, threaded to screw 7, to one side, exposing the rotating blades of the main body 1. This allows maintenance personnel to easily clean, replace blades, or adjust the equipment without removing the protective shell 9, improving maintenance efficiency. Simultaneously, as motor 4 rotates gear 5, gear 3 10 rotates screw 2 11, causing the movable frame 2 12, threaded to screw 2 11, to move with LED spotlight 15. The LED spotlight 15 moves above the rotating blades, providing ample illumination for operation or maintenance, facilitating worker work. Furthermore, the angle of the LED spotlight 15 can be adjusted by extending and retracting the pneumatic telescopic rod 13, ensuring good illumination of key areas of the blades and facilitating maintenance or operation from different angles.

[0025] Working Principle: During use, the protective shell 9 covers the rotating blades of the main body 1 of the herb cutter, preventing workers from accidentally touching the blades and also preventing herbs from splashing out. When maintenance is required, the motor 4 rotates gear 5, causing gear 6, which meshes with gear 5, to rotate screw 7. This moves the protective shell 9, which is threaded to screw 7, to one side, exposing the rotating blades of the main body 1 of the herb cutter. This allows maintenance personnel to easily clean, replace blades, or adjust the equipment without removing the protective shell 9, improving maintenance efficiency. Simultaneously, when the motor 4 rotates gear 5, gear 3 10 rotates screw 2 11, causing the movable frame 2 12, which is threaded to screw 2 11, to move with LED spotlight 15. The LED spotlight 15 moves above the rotating blades, providing sufficient illumination for operation or maintenance, facilitating maintenance by workers. Furthermore, the angle of the LED spotlight 15 can be adjusted by extending and retracting the pneumatic telescopic rod 13, ensuring good illumination of key areas of the blades and facilitating maintenance or operation from different angles.
