[0017] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.
[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a screening device for the production of Chinese herbal medicine slices includes a base 1, on which a transmission mechanism is provided. The transmission mechanism includes two rollers 2 and a conveyor belt 3. The two rollers 2 are respectively arranged on both sides above the base 1, and the conveyor belt 3 covers the two rollers 2.
[0019] The combination of conveyor belt 3 and roller 2 here is mainly used for the assembly line transport of Chinese herbal medicine slices.
[0020] The conveyor belt 3 is provided with a support column 4 on one side. The support column 4 is vertically arranged and its lower end is fixed to the base 1. A sorting unit is provided on the support column 4.
[0021] The sorting unit includes a guide plate 6, a limiting plate 5, and a connecting unit. The limiting plate 5 is connected to the connecting unit through the guide plate 6. The limiting plate 5 is an equilateral triangle. One side of the limiting plate 5 is connected to the guide plate 6. The length of the guide plate 6 is greater than the side length of the limiting plate 5. The guide plate 6 is symmetrical about one of the perpendicular bisectors of the limiting plate 5.
[0022] The connecting unit includes a fixing member 7, a screw 8, and a connecting plate 9. The support column 4 has a vertical groove with a T-shaped cross-section. The width of the groove opening is smaller than the width of the groove bottom. The fixing member 7 is fixed to the guide plate 6. The screw 8 passes through the fixing member 7 and extends into the T-shaped groove. The end of the screw 7 passes through the connecting plate 9. The screw 8 is threadedly connected to the connecting plate 9. The connecting plate 9 is rectangular, and its width is equal to the width of the groove.
[0023] Preferably, there are two support pillars 4, which are located on both sides of the conveyor belt 3. There are two connecting units, and the two support pillars 4 are connected to the guide plate 6 through the connecting units.
[0024] Preferably, the fixing member 7 is disposed on the side of the guide plate 6 near the support column 4, and the side of the fixing member 7 near the limiting plate 5 is provided with a groove, and the tail of the screw 8 is located in the groove.
[0025] Preferably, a receiving box 10 is provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 3, and the receiving box 10 is located below the connection between the guide plate 5 and the limiting plate 6.
[0026] During the screening process, roller 2 drives conveyor belt 3 to transport Chinese herbal medicine slices. When the slices are transported to the end of limiting plate 5, if the thickness meets the standard, they will continue to move between conveyor belt 3 and limiting plate 5. If the thickness exceeds the standard, i.e., the thickness of the slices is greater than the distance between limiting plate 5 and conveyor belt 3, they will be blocked by limiting plate 5. Under the continuous drive of conveyor belt 3, the slices will move along the side of limiting plate 5 and move out of the range of conveyor belt 3, thus falling out. The compliant and non-compliant medicinal slices fall into the receiving box 10. During the conveyor belt 3, there will be no interference between them. That is, when the non-compliant medicinal slices move laterally, even if they encounter the compliant ones, they will not push the compliant ones out of the range of the conveyor belt 3. This is because the compliant medicinal slices are pushed by the conveyor belt 3 while being pushed by the non-compliant ones. This causes them to move diagonally forward with reference to the non-compliant ones, thus breaking away from the push of the non-compliant ones and entering below the limiting plate 5.
[0027] Here, the guide plate 6 serves to guide the medicinal slices, allowing them to fall more accurately into the receiving box 10.
[0028] Here, the fixing component 7 is set on the guide plate 6, while the connecting plate 9 is located in the groove of the support column 4. In fact, the connecting plate 9 can only move along the direction of the groove in the groove of the support column 4 and cannot rotate. The screw 8 is used to connect the fixing component 7 and the connecting plate 9, so that the guide plate 6 can be fixedly installed on the support column 4. By loosening the screw 8, the height of the guide plate 6 can be adjusted at any height, that is, the height of the limiting plate 5 can be adjusted to match different height screening requirements.
[0029] Compared with existing technologies, this screening equipment for the production of Chinese herbal medicine slices can adjust the height of the limiting plate 5 according to the actual height standard, thereby screening the slices on the conveyor belt 3 by thickness and removing substandard slices laterally. During the screening process, it can ensure that the qualified and substandard materials do not interfere with each other and pass smoothly, ensuring the continuity of the screening work and improving work efficiency.
[0030] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
