Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine processing equipment, specifically a continuous production equipment for drying and slicing Gastrodia elata. Background Technology

[0002] Gastrodia elata, a traditional Chinese medicine, is the dried tuber of the orchid Gastrodia elata plant. It has the effects of calming wind and stopping spasms, suppressing liver yang, and dispelling wind and unblocking meridians. The processing workflow for Gastrodia elata involves raw material feeding, washing, steaming and softening, slicing, drying, and packaging to ensure the medicinal components and quality of the Gastrodia elata. Gastrodia elata processing usually involves slicing first, followed by drying. Because fresh or pre-treated Gastrodia elata is softer, it is easier to slice into uniformly thick and regularly shaped pieces. After slicing, the surface area of ​​the material increases significantly, resulting in more even heating and faster moisture evaporation, which can significantly shorten drying time and reduce energy consumption. However, slicing and drying usually require two different machines, reducing work efficiency. Therefore, a continuous production line for drying and slicing Gastrodia elata is needed.

[0003] Based on this, a special slicing device for Gastrodia elata was disclosed through patent search application number CN201811528591.4. In this invention, by designing and installing a storage tube, etc., it is convenient to cover the feed tube with dust when the device is not in use, and prevent dust from entering the inside of the feed tube and adsorbing with Gastrodia elata. This solves the problem that dust can easily enter the inside of the existing special slicing device for Gastrodia elata through the feed tube.

[0004] The aforementioned patented device has the following shortcomings when in use: traditional devices typically only have a slicing function, and traditional devices require two steps: first slicing, then transferring the slices to the drying equipment. There is a time interval between manual transfer and waiting for drying, which interrupts the production process. The longer the interval between slicing and drying, the more serious the oxidation, reducing the operator's work efficiency.

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, a continuous production equipment for drying and slicing Gastrodia elata is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0020] 1. This application discloses a continuous production equipment for drying and slicing Gastrodia elata. The user simultaneously activates multiple sets of first hydraulic cylinders, which drive the platform body to rise and move the platform body to the outside of the box body. The user places the steamed and softened whole Gastrodia elata on the top surface of the platform body and places the Gastrodia elata under the disc cutter. At the same time, two sets of second hydraulic cylinders are activated, and the drive motor inside the drive box is activated. The drive motor drives the disc cutter to rotate. The two sets of second hydraulic cylinders drive the disc cutter to press down towards the Gastrodia elata, so that the disc cutter can cut the Gastrodia elata.

[0021] 2. Users can adjust the position of the disc cutter according to the slicing needs. The user starts the first motor, which drives the first threaded rod to rotate forward or backward.

[0044] In summary, the working principle is as follows: This application discloses a continuous production equipment for drying and slicing Gastrodia elata. Gastrodia elata processing typically involves slicing first, followed by drying. Because fresh or pre-treated Gastrodia elata, such as softened by steaming, is relatively soft, it is easily sliced ​​into uniformly thick and regularly shaped pieces. The user simultaneously activates multiple sets of first hydraulic cylinders 33, which drive the platform body 31 upwards and move it to the outside of the box body 11. The user places the softened whole Gastrodia elata on the top surface of the platform body 31 and below the disc cutter 27. Simultaneously, two sets of second hydraulic cylinders 21 are activated, driving the support block 22 and the disc cutter 27 to descend. At the same time, the drive motor inside the drive box 26 is activated, causing the disc cutter 27 to rotate. The two sets of second hydraulic cylinders... The pressure cylinder 21 drives the disc cutting blade 27 to press down towards the Gastrodia elata, thus enabling the disc cutting blade 27 to cut the Gastrodia elata. The user can adjust the position of the disc cutting blade 27 according to the slicing needs. The user starts the first motor 23, which drives the first threaded rod 24 to rotate forward or backward. The first threaded rod 24 drives the moving block 25, the drive box 26, and the disc cutting blade 27 to move. The disc cutting blade 27 moves horizontally to the left or right along the support block 22. After the disc cutting blade 27 is adjusted to the designated position, the drive motor is turned on to rotate the disc cutting blade 27. At the same time, the two sets of second hydraulic cylinders 21 are turned on to drive the disc cutting blade 27 to press down. The disc cutting blade 27 is used to cut the entire Gastrodia elata at different positions to meet the needs of different customers.

[0045] After the Gastrodia elata cutting is completed, the cut Gastrodia elata remains on the top surface of the platform body 31. The user retracts the two sets of second hydraulic cylinders 21, causing the disc cutting blade 27 to move away from the platform body 31. At the same time, the user activates multiple sets of first hydraulic cylinders 33, which retract, causing the platform body 31 to retract into the box body 11. At this time, the second motor 16 is activated, driving the second threaded rod 17 to rotate in the opposite direction. The second threaded rod 17 drives the sliding block 18 to move horizontally to the left along the limiting groove 111. The sliding block 18 then drives the sealing cover 14 to move horizontally until the sealing cover 14 completely closes the top opening of the box body 11. At this time, the user can activate multiple sets of heating rods 112, which activate the heating mode. The hot air in the box body 11 dries the Gastrodia elata on the top surface of the platform body 31, and the Gastrodia elata... The water generated during drying flows through multiple sets of drainage holes 32 and falls to the bottom of the box body 11. After the gastrodia elata on the platform body 31 is dried, multiple sets of heating rods 112 are turned off, and the second motor 16 is turned on to drive the second threaded rod 17 to rotate in the forward direction. The second threaded rod 17 drives the sliding block 18 to move horizontally to the right along the limiting groove 111. The sealing cover 14 moves away from the box body 11 until the opening of the box body 11 is fully opened. Multiple sets of first hydraulic cylinders 33 are then turned on. The first hydraulic cylinders 33 extend and drive the platform body 31 to move upward until the first hydraulic cylinders 33 drive the platform body 31 and the gastrodia elata out of the box body 11, making it easy for the user to remove the gastrodia elata from the platform body 31. This integrated design allows the gastrodia elata to be dried from slicing in one go without interruption, reducing time loss between processes. The equipment can perform the work of drying after slicing, improving the working efficiency of the device.

[0046] After the device is finished using it, the user needs to treat the wastewater at the bottom of the tank body 11. Connect the outlet pipe on one side of the water pump 15 to the hose, move one end of the hose to a place where drainage is possible, turn on the water pump 15, and the water pump 15 will quickly suck out the wastewater at the bottom of the tank body 11 through the pipe. The water pump 15 will also send the sucked wastewater through the hose to the designated drainage point until the wastewater inside the tank body 11 is completely sucked out. Then turn off the water pump 15. This operation makes it easier for the user to clean and maintain the inside of the tank body 11 and improves the practicality of the device.
