[0027] 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.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, a small Chinese medicine powdering machine includes a base 1 and a motor 6. A vertical rod 2 is fixedly connected to the surface of the base 1, and a support arm 5 is slidably connected to the upper surface of the vertical rod 2. The motor 6 is fixedly installed on the support arm 5.

[0030] The output shaft surface of motor 6 is provided with blades 13 for crushing medicinal materials;

[0031] Material box 8, which is mounted on base 1 via a rotating mechanism, is used to hold medicinal materials;

[0032] A cover plate 7 is slidably fitted on the output shaft surface of motor 6, and the cover plate 7 cooperates with material box 8;

[0033] The output shaft surface of the motor 6 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 19 by bolts. At least two blades 13 are provided, and each blade 13 is fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting base 19.

[0034] The surface of the upright 2 is provided with a limit mechanism for adjusting the height of the support arm 5;

[0035] The limiting mechanism includes a pressure plate 3, which is slidably connected to the surface of the upright 2. A limiting shaft is fixedly connected to the surface of the upright 2. The support arm 5 is slidably connected to the surface of the limiting shaft by a spring. A fixing bolt 16 is threadedly connected to the surface of the support arm 5. The fixing bolt 16 passes through the pressure plate 3 and is rotatably connected.

[0036] During operation, the hand-held support arm 5 slides the motor 6 until the motor 6 drives the cover plate 7 to adhere to the material box 8. Continue pressing down the motor 6 so that the blade 13 on the surface of the motor 6 is at the bottom of the material box 8, but not in contact. At this time, rotate the fixing bolt 16 so that the fixing bolt 16 drives the pressure plate 3 to adhere to the surface of the upright 2, fixing the height of the motor 6. Then start the motor 6, so that the motor 6 drives the blade 13 to crush the medicinal materials in the material box 8. Because the cover plate 7 is a sliding design, medicinal materials can be added midway to continue grinding while the motor 6 is running. By setting the blade 13 on the cover plate 7, after the motor 6 is raised, the blade 13 is hidden inside the cover plate 7, effectively avoiding the situation where the blade 13 cuts the worker's hand and causes injury, greatly improving the safety during use. Finally, when the blade 13 is used for a long time, the sharpness of the blade 13 will decrease and become dull, affecting the normal cutting function. It can be quickly disassembled and replaced by the bolts on the surface of the mounting base 19.

[0037] A spring is fixedly connected to the surface of motor 6, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to cover plate 7. A clamping plate 21 is fixedly connected to the surface of the output shaft of motor 6.

[0038] During operation, the spring can firmly press the cover plate 7 against the surface of the material box 8. When the motor 6 is lifted, it will lift the cover plate 7 at the same time. At this time, manually moving the cover plate 7 up and down will cause the cover plate 7 to vibrate by impacting the cover plate 7 through the spring and the clamping plate 21. This not only has a limiting effect to prevent the blade 13 from contacting the cover plate, but also helps to remove the powder adsorbed on the surface of the cover plate 7, the blade 13, and the sealing ring 18.

[0039] A sealing ring 18 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cover plate 7. The sealing ring 18 is hollow and its cross-section is approximately triangular. During operation, the sealing ring 18 can improve the sealing effect between the cover plate 7 and the material box 8, preventing the leakage of medicine during powdering. Because the sealing ring 18 is approximately triangular, when the side with the larger angle contacts the material box 8, the internal gas distribution will change when the material box 8 squeezes this side, causing a deformation protrusion on the side near the blade 13, which blocks the gap between the material box 8 and the cover plate 7, further improving the sealing effect. At the same time, when the sealing ring 18 is removed from the material box 8, the sealing ring 18 resets. Through the change of tension and relaxation, the medicine powder adsorbed on the surface of the sealing ring 18 can be dislodged, avoiding waste of medicine and preventing it from falling onto the table, which is convenient for subsequent cleaning.

[0040] The rotating mechanism includes a support plate 12. There are two support plates 12, which are symmetrically designed about the central axis of the base 1. Each support plate 12 has a U-shaped groove on its surface. The material box 8 is fixedly connected to both sides of the material box 8. The connecting shaft 9 is movably connected in the U-shaped groove. The surface of the connecting shaft 9 is threaded. The surface of the connecting shaft 9 is connected to a knob 11 through the thread. The bottom of the material box 8 is arc-shaped and the material box 8 is made of magnetic material. A magnetic ring 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the base 1.

[0041] During operation, after the medicinal materials are ground into powder, turn the knobs 11 on both sides of the material box 8 to disengage the knobs 11 from the support plate 12. At this time, the material box 8 can rotate, making it easy to pour out the powder in the material box 8. The design of the "U"-shaped opening groove allows the material box 8 to be disassembled and cleaned, greatly improving the practicality of the device. The magnetic ring 15 on the surface of the base 1 ensures that the material box 8 is always in a vertical position, preventing the center of gravity from changing and causing it to tip over after the knobs 11 are loosened. At the same time, the arc-shaped design of the bottom of the material box 8 reduces cleaning dead corners.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] Please see Figure 5 As shown in the first embodiment, as another implementation of this utility model, an anti-slip pad 22 is fixedly connected to the surface of the base 1. The anti-slip pad 22 is made of rubber. During operation, the anti-slip pad 22 can improve the stability of the base 1 and prevent the base 1 from moving due to vibration generated after the motor 6 starts.
