Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging machines, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine powder packaging machine with an integrated drying system. Background Technology

[0002] Existing Chinese herbal medicine powder packaging machines adopt a modular design, mainly composed of core components such as a hopper, feeding mechanism, precision metering device, film winding mechanism, and sealing device. During operation, the operator first pours the Chinese herbal medicine powder into the hopper, which is equipped with a stirring device. The stirring blades are continuously rotated by a motor, effectively preventing the powder from absorbing moisture and clumping or forming bridging. The feeding mechanism typically uses either a screw feeder or a vibrating feeder. The screw feeder propels the powder through a rotating screw, while the vibrating feeder uses electromagnetic vibration to transport the material. Both can precisely control the powder flow rate. The metering device uses a high-precision sensor in conjunction with a PLC control system to achieve accurate metering. The film winding mechanism automatically pulls the composite packaging film, forming it into a cylindrical shape via a forming device. The metered powder fills the film cylinder through the feeding pipe, and finally, the heat sealing device completes the longitudinal and transverse sealing, forming a well-sealed bagged product.

[0003] During use, the existing hoppers rely solely on stirring blades to prevent powder from clumping. However, Chinese medicine powders are prone to absorbing moisture, especially in humid environments. Stirring can only prevent powder from clumping inside the hopper, but it cannot process powder that has clumped before entering the hopper. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problem that the stirring rod cannot break up the clumps of Chinese medicine powder in the above or existing technologies, this utility model is proposed.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A sieving component, including a packaging machine body, wherein a stirring assembly is provided on the top of the packaging machine body, a sieving grid is provided inside the stirring assembly, a connecting slider is fixedly installed on the top of the sieving grid, a connecting plate is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting slider, an inner inclined block is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate, and a double-headed lifting block is provided on the outside of the stirring assembly; a drying component, including a fixing pipe, wherein the fixing pipe is located inside the stirring assembly, an air supply pipe is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing pipe, a micro air pump is provided on the left side of the stirring assembly, and a heating box is fixedly installed at the bottom of the micro air pump.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the integrated drying system for packaging Chinese medicine powder of this utility model, the stirring assembly includes a hopper for storing materials.

A feeding port for feeding is fixedly installed on the top of the sealing cover. A bracket is fixedly installed on the left side of the sealing cover. A motor is fixedly installed on the right side of the bracket. A stirring rod for stirring the Chinese medicine powder is fixedly installed at the bottom of the drive shaft of the motor.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the traditional Chinese medicine powder packaging machine of the integrated drying system of this utility model, the double-headed lifting block is disposed inside the inner inclined block, and the double-headed lifting block is fixedly installed outside the drive shaft of the motor.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the traditional Chinese medicine powder packaging machine of the integrated drying system of this utility model, the screening grid is slidably installed inside the hopper, the sealing cover and the connecting slider are provided with grooves at corresponding positions, and the connecting slider is slidably installed inside the grooves opened inside the sealing cover.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the integrated drying system for traditional Chinese medicine powder packaging machine of this utility model, the connecting plate is provided with holes at corresponding positions of the feed inlet, and the feed inlet is slidably installed in the holes provided inside the connecting plate.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the integrated drying system for packaging Chinese medicine powder of this utility model, the fixed tube is fixedly installed on the inner side of the bracket, the micro air pump is fixedly installed on the left side of the bracket through the mounting block, the connecting plate and the sealing cover are provided with holes at the corresponding positions of the fixed tube, and the fixed tube is slidably installed inside the holes opened inside the connecting plate and the sealing cover.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model's integrated drying system for packaging traditional Chinese medicine powders are as follows:

[0013] 1. By using the inner inclined block and the double-headed lifting block, the double-headed lifting block rotates with the drive shaft of the motor and intermittently contacts the inclined surface inside the inner inclined block, achieving the effect of making the screening grid move up and down. This allows the powder to be vibrated and screened, separating the agglomerated powder from the dry powder. At the same time, the powder attached to the outer surface of the agglomerated powder can be separated by vibration.

[0014] 2. Through the heating box structure, a micro air pump is used to fill the inside of the hopper with heat by blowing a breeze, which achieves the effect of drying the powder.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Example 1, referring to Figures 1-4This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a traditional Chinese medicine powder packaging machine with an integrated drying system, which can achieve the effect of separating agglomerated powder through vibration screening. It includes a screening component and a packaging machine body 10. A stirring component 11 is provided on the top of the packaging machine body 10. A screening grid 12 is provided inside the stirring component 11. A connecting slider 13 is fixedly installed on the top of the screening grid 12. A connecting plate 14 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting slider 13. An inner inclined block 15 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate 14. A double-headed lifting block 16 is provided on the outside of the stirring component 11.

[0024] Specifically, when the drive shaft of motor 115 rotates, it drives the double-headed lifting block 16 to rotate. When the double-headed lifting block 16 rotates, it contacts the inclined inner wall of the inner inclined block 15. Since the inner wall of the inner inclined block 15 has an inclined slope, the double-headed lifting block 16 will intermittently lift the inner inclined block 15, so that the connecting plate 14 can drive the connecting slider 13 to move up and down reciprocally. This allows the screening grid 12 to move up and down reciprocally inside the hopper 111. The reciprocating movement causes the powder to vibrate, thereby screening the powder and screening the dry powder into the hopper 111. The clumped powder will remain inside the screening grid 12 and will not affect the screened powder.

[0025] Furthermore, the mixing assembly 11 includes a hopper 111 for storing materials. The hopper 111 is fixedly installed on the top of a support frame provided on the top of the packaging machine body 10. A sealing cover 112 is fixedly installed on the top of the hopper 111 by bolts and nuts. A feed inlet 113 for feeding is fixedly installed on the top of the sealing cover 112. A bracket 114 is fixedly installed on the left side of the sealing cover 112. A motor 115 is fixedly installed on the right side of the bracket 114. A stirring rod 116 for stirring the Chinese medicine powder is fixedly installed at the bottom of the drive shaft of the motor 115.

[0026] The feed inlet 113 allows the traditional Chinese medicine powder to be injected into the hopper 111. The design of the hopper 111 and the sealing cover 112, which are installed with bolts and nuts, allows the entire sieving and drying component to be disassembled and the inside of the hopper 111 to be cleaned. The drive shaft of the motor 115 drives the stirring rod 116 to rotate, which can stir the sieved powder and prevent it from clumping again.

[0027] Preferably, the double-headed lifting block 16 is disposed inside the inner inclined block 15, and the double-headed lifting block 16 is fixedly installed outside the drive shaft of the motor 115. The screening grid 12 is slidably installed inside the hopper 111. The sealing cover 112 and the connecting slider 13 are provided with grooves at corresponding positions, and the connecting slider 13 is slidably installed inside the grooves provided inside the sealing cover 112. The connecting plate 14 and the feed inlet 113 are provided with holes at corresponding positions, and the feed inlet 113 is slidably installed inside the holes provided inside the connecting plate 14.

[0028] It should be noted that by using the double-headed lifting block 16 set inside the inner inclined block 15, the double-headed lifting block 16 can follow the transmission of the motor 115 drive shaft through the ramp of the inclined surface, driving the inner inclined block 15 to move up and down reciprocally, thereby enabling the screening grid 12 to pass through the screen. The groove opened inside the sealing cover 112 limits the connecting slider 13, which can ensure the stability of the reciprocating motion of the screening grid 12. At the same time, the feed port 113 sliding inside the opening of the connecting plate 14 can avoid motion interference.

[0029] In use, firstly, the hopper 111 is connected to the outer side lugs of the sealing cover 112, and then the sieving and drying components are installed to the hopper 111 using bolts and nuts. After assembly, the herbal powder can be injected into the feed inlet 113. The powder will first enter the sieving grid 12, driving the motor 115 to start rotating the stirring rod 116. As the drive shaft of the motor 115 rotates, it will drive the double-headed lifting block 16 to rotate. The double-headed lifting block 16 will contact the ramps with different inclination angles on the inner wall of the inner inclined block 15. This allows it to be lifted. After lifting, when it comes into contact with a slope with a large angle, it will reset due to gravity. This achieves the up-and-down reciprocating motion of the inner inclined block 15. The inner inclined block 15, through the connecting plate 14 and the connecting slider 13, will drive the screening grid 12 to move up and down, screening the powder inside the screening grid 12. The screened powder will enter the hopper 111 and be stirred by the stirring rod 116 to avoid secondary agglomeration. The agglomerated powder will remain inside the screening grid 12 for further processing.

[0030] Example 2, refer to Figure 5 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the previous embodiment, this embodiment provides a drying component for a traditional Chinese medicine powder packaging machine with an integrated drying system, based on embodiment 1. This solves the problem that the powder stored inside the sieve grid 12 after sieving is still in a clumping state. The drying component includes a fixed pipe 20, which is disposed inside the stirring assembly 11. An air supply pipe 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed pipe 20. A micro air pump 22 is disposed on the left side of the stirring assembly 11. A heating box 23 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the micro air pump 22.

[0031] Specifically, the micro air pump 22 generates a gentle breeze that allows heat to slowly enter the interior of the hopper 111 and fill the interior of the hopper 111, thereby processing the agglomerated powder without causing dust to spread.

[0032] Furthermore, the fixing tube 20 is fixedly installed inside the bracket 114, and the micro air pump 22 is fixedly installed to the left side of the bracket 114 via the mounting block. The connecting plate 14 and the sealing cover 112 are provided with holes at the corresponding positions of the fixing tube 20, and the fixing tube 20 is slidably installed inside the holes opened inside the connecting plate 14 and the sealing cover 112. The heating box 23 is provided with a heating rod inside, and the top and bottom of the heating box 23 are provided with air pipes. The end of the air supply pipe 21 away from the fixing tube 20 is fixedly installed to the top of the micro air pump 22.

[0033] Heat is generated by a heating rod inside the heating box 23 and transported through a fixed pipe 20 and an air supply pipe 21 to enter the hopper 111. Meanwhile, the fixed pipe 20, which slides inside the hole in the connecting plate 14 and the feed inlet 113, can avoid motion interference.

[0034] During use, before packaging and injecting the powder, heat is first generated by the electric heating rod inside the heating box 23. This heat is then driven by the micro air pump 22, which delivers the heat generated by the heating box 23 to the inside of the hopper 111 through the fixed pipe 20 and the air supply pipe 21. After the inside of the hopper 111 is preheated, the powder can be injected. Since the heat entering the hopper 111 is in a gentle breeze, powder will not splash. The heat filling the hopper 111 ensures that the powder inside is dry. Secondly, when the sieving grid 12 reciprocates, it dries any agglomerated powder. Under the action of vibration, the agglomerated powder gradually dries from the outside to the inside. Accompanied by vibration, the powder gradually falls off the outer surface until it falls into the inside of the hopper 111 from the inside of the sieving grid 12.

[0035] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
