Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine storage technology, and in particular to a multi-stage anti-stagnant flow funnel storage compartment for traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] In the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) industry, the storage of liquid TCM (such as decoctions and extracts) has always been a crucial step. However, traditional TCM funnel storage containers still have the following shortcomings: 1. Traditional TCM funnel storage containers lack an effective anti-stagnant flow structure. When liquid TCM is left to stand, it is prone to sedimentation and stratification due to differences in component density. During the retrieval process, due to the influence of the container structure, TCM is prone to accumulate at the bottom or outlet of the funnel, forming stagnant flow. This is especially true for compound TCM, where stagnant flow leads to an imbalance in the proportion of different components taken out. 2. Traditional TCM funnel storage containers do not have a filtration structure. After the TCM is decocted or prepared, the dregs are very easy to mix into the liquid, which not only reduces the quality of the TCM but also frequently clogs the outlet, increases the difficulty of retrieval, and reduces work efficiency. Therefore, we have introduced a multi-stage anti-stagnant flow TCM funnel storage container. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-stage anti-stagnant flow traditional Chinese medicine funnel storage compartment, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, several partitioned medicine storage chambers are set with an inclined structure that is lower in the front and higher in the back. Using gravity, the Chinese medicine automatically slides forward and gathers near the medicine outlet pipe, avoiding the accumulation of Chinese medicine residue in the rear of the medicine storage chamber.

[0012] Preferably, the sealing structure includes a sealing cover, a rubber sealing plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sealing cover, the upper end of the rubber sealing plate has a plurality of second screw holes that pass through vertically, and the plurality of second screw holes all extend to the lower end of the second screw holes, and the upper end of the sealing cover has a third screw hole that passes through vertically at each of the four corners.

[0013] Preferably, the sealing cap is located on the medicine storage compartment body, the second screw hole is movably sleeved in the medicine storage compartment body, and the lower end of the second screw hole is in contact with the upper end of the partition plate.

[0014] Preferably, the outer surfaces of the four bolts are threaded into the corresponding four third screw holes and extend into the corresponding four first screw holes.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the micro vibration motor of the anti-stagnant flow structure is working, the sealing cover will not be displaced or loosened due to vibration, thus preventing the Chinese medicine from spilling or being contaminated during the vibration process.

A handle is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting edge. A filter screen is embedded in the lower part of the inner wall of the sleeve frame. The outer surface of the threaded tube is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the corresponding second threaded hole.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the filter screen is made of 304 stainless steel, which can intercept the dregs in Chinese medicine, effectively improve the purity of Chinese medicine, and prevent the dregs from clogging the medicine outlet pipe.

[0018] Preferably, the spiral guide plate is configured with a structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom to match the conical structure at the bottom of the funnel body, and the sleeve is movably fitted into the upper part of the funnel body.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the filter screen needs to be cleaned or replaced, it can be disassembled simply by lifting the frame upwards.

[0020] Preferably, the lower end of the micro vibration motor is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sealing cover, and several fixing rings are respectively fixedly sleeved on the corresponding funnel body.

When the Chinese medicine flows slowly or stagnates in the funnel body, the micro vibration motor can be activated to loosen the Chinese medicine attached to the inner wall of the funnel body and the spiral guide plate, effectively avoiding the problems of component precipitation and stratification and imbalance of the dosage ratio, and ensuring the stability of the efficacy.

[0023] 2. In this utility model, the filter screen on the inner wall of the frame in the funnel structure can effectively intercept the dregs of the medicine and improve the purity of the Chinese medicine. The structure of the spiral guide plate, which is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, is adapted to the conical structure at the bottom of the funnel body, so that the Chinese medicine is evenly dispersed during the downward flow, avoiding concentrated accumulation and overflow, ensuring smooth flow of the Chinese medicine, and improving storage and retrieval efficiency.

[0024] 3. In this utility model, the partition plate inside the medicine storage structure divides the medicine storage compartment into multiple partitioned medicine storage chambers with a lower front and a higher back. The Chinese medicine naturally slides forward and gathers near the medicine outlet pipe, making it convenient to take out as needed and reducing the time required for taking out the medicine. The sealing structure, through the sealing cover and rubber sealing plate, combined with the tightening of bolts, ensures that the sealing cover will not be displaced or loosened due to vibration, thus preventing the Chinese medicine from spilling out or being contaminated during vibration.

[0035] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0036] A multi-stage anti-stagnant flow traditional Chinese medicine funnel storage compartment includes a base plate 1, with support seats 2 fixedly sleeved at the four corners of the lower end of the base plate 1, a medicine storage structure 3 fixedly connected to the upper end of the base plate 1, a sealing structure 4 movably sleeved at the upper end of the medicine storage structure 3, bolts 5 threadedly connected at the four corners of the upper end of the sealing structure 4, and several funnel structures 6 threadedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the sealing structure 4.

The medicine storage structure 3 includes a medicine storage compartment body 31, with several partition plates 32 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the medicine storage compartment body 31. Several partitioned medicine storage cavities 33 are formed inside the medicine storage compartment body 31 through the several partition plates 32. First screw holes 34 are opened at the four corners of the upper end of the medicine storage compartment body 31. Several medicine outlet tubes 35 are fixedly connected to the lower part of the front end of the storage compartment 31. A first switching valve 36 is movably installed on the outer surface of each medicine outlet tube 35. The lower end of the storage compartment body 31 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the base plate 1. Several partitioned storage chambers 33 are designed with a front-low, rear-high inclined structure. Several partition plates 32 are distributed in pairs at equal distances. The positions of the medicine outlet tubes 35 and the positions of the partitioned storage chambers 33 are distributed in pairs. The sealing structure 4 includes a sealing cover 41. A rubber sealing plate 42 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sealing cover 41. Several second screw holes 43 are opened on the upper end of the rubber sealing plate 42, and these second screw holes 43 extend to... At the lower end of the second screw hole 43, and at the four corners of the upper end of the sealing cover 41, there are three through screw holes 44. The sealing cover 41 is located on the medicine storage compartment body 31. The second screw hole 43 is movably fitted inside the medicine storage compartment body 31, and the lower end of the second screw hole 43 is in contact with the upper end of the partition plate 32. The outer surfaces of the four bolts 5 are respectively threaded into the four corresponding third screw holes 44 and extend into the four corresponding first screw holes 34. The funnel structure 6 includes a threaded tube 61 and a sleeve 66. A connecting tube 62 is inserted and fixedly connected to the upper end of the threaded tube 61. A second switch valve 63 is movably installed on the outer surface of the connecting tube 62. A pinch valve is inserted and fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting tube 62. The funnel body 64 has a spiral guide plate 65 fixedly connected to the lower part of its inner wall. The upper end of the sleeve 66 is fixedly connected to a connecting edge 67, and the outer surface of the connecting edge 67 is fixedly connected to a handle 68. The lower part of the inner wall of the sleeve 66 is embedded with a filter screen 69. The outer surface of the threaded tube 61 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the corresponding second threaded hole 43. The spiral guide plate 65 is designed with a structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom to match the conical structure at the bottom of the funnel body 64. The sleeve 66 is movably fitted inside the upper part of the funnel body 64. The lower end of the micro vibration motor 71 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sealing cover 41, and several fixing rings 75 are respectively fixedly fitted onto the corresponding funnel body 64.

[0038] It should be noted that this utility model is a multi-stage anti-stagnant flow traditional Chinese medicine funnel storage compartment. In use, hold the handle 68 on the connecting edge 67 and movably attach the sleeve 66 to the upper part of the funnel body 64. Open the second switch valve 63 on the outer surface of the connecting pipe 62 and pour the traditional Chinese medicine to be stored into the sleeve 66. The filter screen 69 embedded in the lower part of the inner wall of the sleeve 66 will intercept the dregs in the traditional Chinese medicine, completing the filtration. Under its own gravity, the traditional Chinese medicine slides down along the spiral guide plate 65 on the lower part of the inner wall of the funnel body 64. Because the spiral guide plate 65 is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and matches the conical structure at the bottom of the funnel body 64, the traditional Chinese medicine is continuously dispersed during its descent, avoiding concentrated accumulation. It then enters the storage structure 3 through the connecting pipe 62 and the threaded pipe 61. If the traditional Chinese medicine is found to flow slowly or stagnant within the funnel body 64, the micro-function in the anti-stagnant flow structure 7 is activated. The output of the micro vibration motor 71 drives the vibration head 72 to vibrate. The vibration is transmitted to the fixing ring 75 through the first connecting plate 73 and the second connecting plate 74, thereby causing the funnel body 64 to generate high-frequency micro-amplitude vibration, loosening the Chinese medicine attached to the inner wall of the funnel body 64 and the spiral guide plate 65, restoring the smooth flow of the Chinese medicine. The Chinese medicine passing through the funnel structure 6 enters the medicine storage compartment body 31 through the threaded tube 61. Due to the partition of the partition plate 32 in the medicine storage compartment body 31, the Chinese medicine flows into the corresponding partition medicine storage chamber 33. Since the partition medicine storage chambers 33 are all inclined structures with a lower front and a higher back, the Chinese medicine will naturally slide forward and gather near the medicine outlet pipe 35 for easy subsequent use. As needed, the first switch valve 36 on the outer surface of the corresponding medicine outlet pipe 35 is opened. Under the action of gravity, the Chinese medicine in the partition medicine storage chamber 33 flows out from the medicine outlet pipe 35, completing the use operation.

[0039] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
