Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of epimedium dehydration technology, and in particular to a dehydration machine for processing epimedium with uniform heating. Background Technology

[0002] A dehydrator for processing Epimedium is a device used to remove moisture from Epimedium (also known as goat's eye herb). In the processing of traditional Chinese medicine, dehydrators help remove excess water from Epimedium to facilitate storage, preservation, and subsequent processing. This equipment is typically automated, highly efficient, and easy to operate, maintaining the medicinal efficacy and quality of the herb. Using a dehydrator can significantly improve the drying efficiency of Epimedium, reduce labor costs, and prevent the herb from spoiling or becoming moldy.

[0003] Existing dehydrators for processing Epimedium mainly dry the Epimedium by heating the inside of the dehydration drum. However, in drum-type dehydrators, during rotation, gravity may cause some Epimedium to be pressed to the bottom, resulting in uneven heating and affecting the dehydration effect.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a dehydration machine for processing Epimedium that provides uniform heating, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a dehydrator for processing Epimedium that ensures uniform heating. Through stirring and rotation, the Epimedium is heated evenly during the heating process, avoiding localized overheating or uneven heating.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a dehydrating machine for processing Epimedium with uniform heating, comprising a dehydrating cylinder and two triangular supports, wherein multiple heating tubes are fixedly arranged inside the interlayer between the inner wall and the outer wall of the dehydrating cylinder, a stirring mechanism is provided at the center of the front end face of the dehydrating cylinder, and round shafts are fixedly arranged in the middle of both sides of the dehydrating cylinder, and seated bearings are fixedly arranged at the upper ends of the two triangular supports respectively, and the two seated bearings are respectively fixedly sleeved on the shaft bodies of the two round shafts;

[0007] The stirring mechanism includes a motor, which is fixedly mounted on the front end of the dewatering cylinder. The output end of the motor passes through the front end of the dewatering cylinder and extends into the interior. A long rod is fixedly mounted on the output end of the motor. The rear end of the long rod is rotatably mounted at the center of the rear inner wall of the dewatering cylinder via a bearing. Multiple stirring rods are fixedly mounted on the long rod, and stirring blades are fixedly mounted on one end of each stirring rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the plurality of heating tubes are evenly distributed along the circular surface of the interlayer, and the plurality of stirring rods are evenly distributed along the shaft of the long rod.

[0009] Furthermore, a second motor is fixedly installed at the upper end of one of the two triangular brackets, and a pulley is fixedly installed at the output end of the second motor.

[0010] Furthermore, a pulley is fixedly provided at one end of one of the two circular shafts, and a belt is connected between the two pulleys.

[0011] Furthermore, the dewatering cylinder has an inlet at the upper end of its rear end face and an outlet at the lower end of its rear end face.

[0012] Furthermore, a vacuum pump is fixedly installed in the middle of the upper part of the dehydration cylinder, and a pressure relief port is provided below the vacuum pump at the upper part of the dehydration cylinder.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This utility model proposes a dehydrator for processing Epimedium with uniform heating. Compared with existing dehydrators for Epimedium processing, this equipment heats the inner wall of the dehydration cylinder through multiple heating pipes evenly distributed in the inner wall jacket. Then, a motor drives a long rod to rotate, which in turn drives multiple stirring rods mounted on the long rod to rotate. The stirring blades stir and tumble the Epimedium in the dehydration cylinder, thereby achieving uniform heating.

[0015] 2. This utility model proposes a dehydrator for processing Epimedium with uniform heating. Compared to existing dehydrators for Epimedium processing, this dehydrator is driven by a motor to rotate a pulley, which in turn drives a circular shaft to rotate via belt transmission, thereby rotating the entire dehydration drum. This achieves continuous tumbling and uniform heating of the Epimedium inside. Simultaneously, a vacuum pump adjusts the dehydration drum to a negative pressure state. Under this negative pressure environment, the moisture in the heated Epimedium is rapidly extracted, thus achieving efficient drying. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Reference Figures 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of a dehydrating machine for processing Epimedium with uniform heating, comprising a dehydrating cylinder 1 and two triangular supports 5. Multiple heating tubes 10 are fixedly installed inside the interlayer between the inner and outer walls of the dehydrating cylinder 1. A stirring mechanism 2 is provided at the center of the front end face of the dehydrating cylinder 1. Round shafts 3 are fixedly installed at the middle of both sides of the dehydrating cylinder 1. Bearings 4 with seats are fixedly installed at the upper ends of the two triangular supports 5 respectively. The two bearings 4 are fixedly sleeved on the shafts of the two round shafts 3 respectively. Multiple heating tubes 10 are evenly distributed along the circular surface of the interlayer. A motor 6 is fixedly installed at the upper end of one of the two triangular supports 5. A pulley is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 6. A pulley is fixedly installed at one end of one of the two round shafts 3. A belt connects the two pulleys. A feed inlet 8 is opened at the upper end of the rear end face of the dehydrating cylinder 1. A discharge outlet 9 is opened at the lower end of the rear end face of the dehydrating cylinder 1. A vacuum pump 7 is fixedly installed at the middle of the upper end of the cylinder body of the dehydrating cylinder 1. A pressure relief port is opened below the vacuum pump 7 at the upper end of the cylinder body of the dehydrating cylinder 1.

[0025] Specifically, the user pours the epimedium into the dehydration cylinder 1 through the feed inlet 8. Multiple heating tubes 10 in the inner wall interlayer are electric heating tubes, providing power to ensure the herbs inside the dehydration cylinder 1 are heated. The inner wall of the dehydration cylinder 1 is made of thermally conductive metal. Then, motor 2 6 drives a pulley to rotate, which in turn drives a pulley on the circular shaft 3 to rotate, causing the entire dehydration cylinder 1 to rotate. This causes the epimedium inside to continuously tumble during rotation, contacting the inner wall for more even heating. Since the circular shaft 3 is supported by a bearing 4, the bearing 4 may wear out over time, requiring the user to replace it periodically. To prevent instability caused by centrifugal force, motor 2 6 is usually set to low speed. Furthermore, motor 1 201 is connected to an external power source via an electric slip ring to ensure stable power supply to the dehydration cylinder 1 during rotation. The feed inlet 8 and discharge outlet 9 employ a rotary mechanical seal structure to prevent vacuum leakage.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-5 The stirring mechanism 2 includes a motor 201, which is fixedly mounted on the front end face of the dehydration cylinder 1. The output end of the motor 201 passes through the front end face of the dehydration cylinder 1 and extends into the interior. A long rod 202 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the motor 201. The rear end of the long rod 202 is rotatably mounted at the center of the rear inner wall of the dehydration cylinder 1 through a bearing. Multiple stirring rods 203 are fixedly mounted on the rod body of the long rod 202. A stirring blade 204 is fixedly mounted on one end of each stirring rod 203. The multiple stirring rods 203 are evenly distributed along the rod body of the long rod 202.

[0027] Specifically, motor 201 drives the long rod 202 to rotate, thereby causing multiple evenly distributed stirring rods 203 on its rod to rotate inside the dehydration cylinder 1. The length of the stirring rods 203 is designed to be shorter than the inner wall of the dehydration cylinder 1 to avoid scratching the cylinder wall during rotation. When the stirring rods 203 rotate, they drive the stirring blades 204 to tumble and stir the Epimedium inside the dehydration cylinder 1. The stirring blades 204 have a trapezoidal design, similar to a shovel, which helps to tumble the Epimedium more effectively. In addition, motor 201 rotates at a low speed to prevent high-speed rotation from damaging the Epimedium.

[0028] Working Principle: The user first opens the feed inlet 8 and pours the Epimedium into the dehydration cylinder 1, then closes the cover of the feed inlet 8. Next, the power is turned on, and motor 1 (201), motor 2 (6), heating tube 10, and vacuum pump 7 begin to work. First, the multiple heating tubes 10 arranged between the inner wall layers of the dehydration cylinder 1 heat the inner wall, raising the temperature and thus heating the Epimedium inside the dehydration cylinder 1. Simultaneously, motor 1 (201) starts working, driving the long rod 202 to rotate around the bearing as a fulcrum at the center of the rear inner wall of the dehydration cylinder 1, which in turn drives multiple stirring rods 203 on the rod to rotate inside the cylinder. As these stirring rods 203 rotate, they stir and tumble the Epimedium inside through the stirring blades 204, ensuring that it is heated evenly. At the same time, the motor 6 drives the pulley to rotate, and through the belt transmission between the two pulleys, the round shaft 3 rotates around the bearing 4, thereby driving the entire dehydration cylinder 1 to rotate. This allows the epimedium inside to be rotated additionally by the rotation of the dehydration cylinder 1 while the stirring blade 204 is turning over, thus achieving a fully and evenly heated effect.

[0029] Secondly, during the above steps, the vacuum pump 7 creates a negative pressure inside the dehydration cylinder 1. Under this negative pressure, the moisture inside the epimedium is rapidly drawn out after heating, thus achieving efficient dehydration. After the program is complete, the user turns off the power, and the equipment stops working. Then, the discharge port 9 is adjusted downwards and opened, allowing the dehydrated epimedium to be discharged through the discharge port 9.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
