Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of slicers, and specifically relates to a slicer. Background Technology

[0002] Slicing Chinese medicinal herbs with a slicer facilitates drying, pulverizing, storage, and weighing for prescriptions. It also allows liquid adjuvants to penetrate the herbs during processing, increasing the contact area with the solvent. Furthermore, it makes it easier to extract the active ingredients during decoction. Compared to powdered herbs, sliced ​​herbs are less likely to scorch during decoction and are easier to filter. The sliced ​​herbs also retain a certain degree of their appearance and shape, making them easy to identify visually.

[0003] When slicing some medicinal materials, it is necessary to ensure that the materials are softened evenly and thoroughly. When slicing some hard medicinal materials, it is often difficult to distinguish the internal hardness. If the material is too hard, it is easy for the material to crumble during slicing, which is not only wasteful but also troublesome to handle. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a slicing machine that avoids the phenomenon of flaking when slicing harder materials, thus improving the slicing effect of medicinal materials.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a slicer, including a worktable, a hinged cutting table rotatably connected to the worktable, a cutter fixedly connected to one side of the hinged cutting table, a material placement processing table fixedly connected to the top of the worktable, the material placement processing table having a placement cavity, an insertion detection auxiliary pin slidably connected inside the material placement processing table, a pressure sensor for detecting the movement pressure of the insertion detection auxiliary pin being provided inside the material placement processing table, and the cutter being opposite to the placement cavity.

[0006] The material cutting table has an internal groove, and a sliding table is slidably connected within the internal groove.

[0007] One end of the insertion detection auxiliary pin is fixedly connected to the sliding table, and the other end of the insertion detection auxiliary pin extends through to the outside of the material cutting processing table.

[0008] The pressure sensor is fixedly installed in the internal groove, and the detection end of the pressure sensor is opposite to the sliding table.

[0009] The cutting table is equipped with a protective cover, which is located outside the insertion detection auxiliary needle.

[0010] The protective cover is fixedly connected to a fixing plate, and the cutting table is provided with a fixing slot, into which the fixing plate is inserted.

[0011] The workbench is equipped with an alarm device for alarm purposes, and the alarm device is connected to the pressure sensor signal.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] A hinged cutting table is rotatably connected to the worktable, and a cutter is fixedly connected to one side of the hinged cutting table. The cutter can be used to slice materials. A material placement and processing table is fixedly connected to the top of the worktable. The material placement and processing table has a placement cavity, in which the material to be sliced ​​can be placed. An insertion detection auxiliary needle is slidably connected inside the material placement and processing table. The material moves towards the insertion detection auxiliary needle. A pressure sensor is installed inside the material placement and processing table to detect the pressure of the insertion detection auxiliary needle. When the insertion detection auxiliary needle is inserted into the material, if the material is hard, the insertion detection auxiliary needle is not easy to insert, and the pressure detected by the pressure sensor is at a higher value. This softens the material, avoiding direct slicing and preventing the phenomenon of flaking when slicing hard materials, thus improving the slicing effect of medicinal materials.

[0014] The parts of the device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Please see Figures 1-4The present invention provides the following technical solution: a workbench 1 is included, a hinged cutting table 11 is rotatably connected to the workbench 1, a cutter 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the hinged cutting table 11, a material placement and processing table 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 1, the material placement and processing table 2 has a placement cavity 22, an insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is slidably connected inside the material placement and processing table 2, a pressure sensor 5 for detecting the movement pressure of the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is provided inside the material placement and processing table 2, and the cutter 12 is opposite to the placement cavity 22.

[0021] In this implementation scheme: A hinged cutting table 11 is rotatably connected to the workbench 1. A cutter 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the hinged cutting table 11. When not in use, the cutter 12 can be lowered through the hinged cutting table 11, so that the cutter 12 is not exposed, improving the safety of the slicer. The cutter 12 can be used to slice materials. A material placement and processing table 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 1. The material placement and processing table 2 has a placement cavity 22, in which the material to be sliced ​​can be placed. An insertion detection auxiliary pin 3 is slidably connected inside the material placement and processing table 2. The material is moved toward the insertion detection auxiliary pin 3. The cutting table 2 is equipped with a pressure sensor 5 for detecting the movement pressure of the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3. When the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is inserted into the material, if the material is hard, the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 will not be easy to insert, and the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 5 will be at a higher value. This can soften the material and avoid the phenomenon of flaking when slicing hard materials directly, thus improving the slicing effect of the medicinal material. By setting the pressure sensor 5 to a normal use threshold, if the detected value exceeds the threshold range during use, the operator can be prompted that the medicinal material needs to be processed, that is, replaced with a new medicinal material for slicing.

[0022] The cutting and processing table 2 has an internal groove 23, and a sliding table 4 is slidably connected inside the internal groove 23; when the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is inserted into the material, the sliding table 4 can slide inside the internal groove 23.

[0023] One end of the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is fixedly connected to the sliding table 4, and the other end of the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 extends through to the outside of the material placement and cutting table 2. The pressure sensor 5 is fixedly installed in the internal groove 23, and the detection end of the pressure sensor 5 is opposite to the sliding table 4. The material is moved toward the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3. The material placement and cutting table 2 is equipped with a pressure sensor 5 for detecting the movement pressure of the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3. When the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is inserted into the material, if the material is hard, the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 will not be easy to insert, and the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 5 will be at a high value. This allows the material to be softened or the material to be replaced for slicing.

[0024] A protective cover 6 is inserted into the cutting table 2. The protective cover 6 is located outside the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3. A fixing plate 61 is fixedly connected inside the protective cover 6. The cutting table 2 has a fixing slot 21, and the fixing plate 61 is inserted into the fixing slot 21. When the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is not used, the fixing plate 61 of the protective cover 6 can be inserted into the fixing slot 21 to restrict the position of the protective cover 6, so that the protective cover 6 can protect the outside of the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3. When the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is used, the protective cover 6 can be pulled out to the outside.

[0025] The workbench 1 is equipped with an alarm for alarm purposes. The alarm is connected to the pressure sensor 5. The pressure sensor 5 can be a spring type. By setting the normal operating threshold of the pressure sensor 5, if the detected value exceeds the threshold range during use, the alarm can prompt the operator that the medicinal material needs to be processed, that is, replaced with a new medicinal material for slicing.

[0026] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: A cutter 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the hinged cutting table 11. When the cutter 12 is not in use, it can be lowered through the hinged cutting table 11, so that the cutter 12 is not exposed, improving the safety of the slicer. The cutter 12 can be used to slice materials. A material placement and processing table 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the worktable 1. The material placement and processing table 2 has a placement cavity 22, in which the material to be sliced ​​can be placed. An insertion detection auxiliary pin 3 is slidably connected inside the material placement and processing table 2. The material is moved toward the insertion detection auxiliary pin 3. 2 is equipped with a pressure sensor 5 for detecting the movement pressure of the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3. When the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 is inserted into the material, if the material is hard, the insertion detection auxiliary needle 3 will not be easy to insert, and the pressure detected by the pressure sensor 5 will be at a higher value. This can soften the material and avoid the phenomenon of flaking when slicing hard materials directly, thus improving the slicing effect of the medicinal material. By setting the pressure sensor 5 to a normal use threshold, if the detected value exceeds the threshold range during use, the operator can be prompted that the medicinal material needs to be processed, that is, replaced with a new medicinal material for slicing.
