Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of processing technology of Chinese herbal medicine Polygonatum, and in particular relates to a device for processing and drying Chinese herbal medicine Polygonatum. Background Technology
[0002] Polygonatum rhizome, a traditional Chinese medicine, is the tuber of a natural medicinal plant. Due to its high medicinal value, its cultivation has been increasingly promoted in the industry. The production and processing of Polygonatum rhizome first requires processing, including sun-drying the matured rhizome. This natural sun-drying process is used to process the rhizome.
[0003] The current method of drying the Chinese medicinal herb Polygonatum sibiricum involves placing it on drying racks (the main structure of which includes a metal frame and a metal mesh fixed to it) in the drying yard. However, in actual production, a large quantity of processed Polygonatum sibiricum requires drying, necessitating a large number of drying racks in the drying yard. The drawback of this method is the need for numerous drying racks, which results in a very large workload for daily maintenance and cleaning.
[0004] Therefore, in actual work, existing technologies often design drying racks to be multi-layered. The multi-layered structure of the drying rack increases the space utilization rate, but the drawback is that the Chinese medicine in the lower layer of the multi-layered structure is blocked by the Chinese medicine in the upper layer, resulting in an unsatisfactory drying effect, especially in seasons with weak sunlight intensity, such as winter.
[0005] Therefore, in actual work, especially in seasons with weak sunlight, the method of laying flat to dry is still adopted.
[0006] Meanwhile, the existing drying rack structures are mostly single, naked racks. In actual production, especially in spring when there is a lot of dew at night, a layer of oilcloth is often covered on the dried Polygonatum at night to reduce the moisture from the dew (water vapor in the air) and protect the medicinal herb.
[0007] There are many drying racks for drying Solomon's seal in the drying yard, so the amount of work involved in covering them with cloth is very large. After covering them with cloth, heavy objects are needed to press the cloth down to prevent it from being blown off by the wind.
[0008] Obviously, the existing drying racks are only suitable for small-scale drying. However, the industrial processing of the Chinese herb Polygonatum requires drying a large quantity of Polygonatum. Therefore, a drying rack that can conveniently cover and protect the Chinese herb while increasing the amount of herb that can be dried is of great significance for improving the efficiency of drying and processing Polygonatum. Utility Model Content
[0009] Based on the above background, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a device for processing and drying the traditional Chinese medicine Polygonatum sibiricum.
[0010] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0011] A device for processing and drying the traditional Chinese medicine Polygonatum sibiricum includes a support structure, on the top of which a fixed mesh frame structure is fixedly installed;
[0012] Below the fixed space frame structure are several sliding space frame structures that are pushed and pulled towards the sides.
[0013] In the stowed state, the sliding space frame structure overlaps with the fixed space frame structure;
[0014] It also includes a telescopic cover structure mounted on a support structure, the telescopic cover structure including a retractable protective cover.
[0015] Preferably, the support structure includes support track sections spaced apart on both sides, and support connecting beam sections are welded between the two ends of the support track sections;
[0016] Support beams are fixedly installed at both ends of the connecting beam of the bracket.
[0017] Preferably, the protective cover includes a plurality of integrally formed V-shaped telescopic units;
[0018] The bottom of the V-shaped telescopic unit is supported by a bracket structure, and at both ends of the bottom of the bracket structure are rollers that roll on the support track.
[0019] Preferably, the bracket structure includes a transverse support rod supported on a V-shaped telescopic unit, with vertical support rods detachably installed at both ends of the transverse support rod, and rollers fixedly installed at the bottom of the vertical support rods.
[0020] Preferably, the fixed grid structure includes a fixed frame fixedly installed between the support track sections, and a metal mesh is fixedly connected to the fixed frame.
[0021] Preferably, two pairs of push-pull space frame structures are provided below the fixed space frame structure; one pair of push-pull space frame structures is pushed and pulled to one side.
[0022] The other pair of push-pull space frame structures are set to push and pull towards the opposite side.
[0023] Preferably, the support beam is fixedly connected with bottom slide rails that cooperate with the push-pull grid structure, and the bottom slide rails protrude toward the corresponding side positions;
[0024] The push-pull grid structure rolls on the bottom slide rail.
[0025] Preferably, the push-pull mesh frame structure includes a push-pull frame, on which a metal mesh is fixedly connected.
[0026] Preferably, the bottom of the push-pull frame is fixedly equipped with a plurality of bottom pulleys that roll on the bottom slide rail.
[0027] Preferably, the protective cover is made of a flexible material.
[0028] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0029] 1. A fixed space frame structure is fixedly installed on the top of the support structure; several sliding space frame structures are set below the fixed space frame structure, each sliding towards the side; in the stored state, the sliding space frame structures overlap with the fixed space frame structure.
[0030] In this way, during the work process, for example at night to reduce the soaking of Polygonatum by dew, the sliding mesh frame structure is folded back to overlap with the fixed mesh frame structure, while during the day to increase the drying effect of sunlight, the sliding mesh frame structure is pushed and pulled out to the left and right sides respectively. In this way, a single drying device can be used to increase the amount of Chinese medicine dried while ensuring the drying effect.
[0031] Furthermore, this drying rack structure has lower material costs and requires fewer drying racks compared to traditional single-structure drying racks, making subsequent cleaning and maintenance more convenient and efficient.
[0032] 2. The four push-pull mesh frame structures are implemented, with two pushing and pulling to the left and two pushing and pulling to the right, so that a total of four drying surfaces can be formed by one drying device. This method increases the drying area and improves the drying efficiency, including the amount of drying capacity.
[0033] 3. During the drying process, the protective cover is pushed to its shortest position (at which time all rollers and bracket structures are in a compact state), while at night, the protective cover is pushed and pulled open to its longest position. During this process, the rollers slide and move on the support track.
[0034] This method of covering and protecting Solomon's seal for drying is convenient, requiring only a push-pull operation. Furthermore, the advantage of this method is that, due to the use of a bracket structure and rollers, the entire cover is in a fixed state, making it less likely to be blown off by the wind.

[0047] Example 1
[0048] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a device for processing and drying the traditional Chinese medicine Polygonatum odoratum includes a support structure 1, on the top of which a fixed mesh frame structure 2 is fixedly installed; below the fixed mesh frame structure 2, there are several push-pull mesh frame structures 4 that are pushed and pulled to the side; in the stored state, the push-pull mesh frame structures 4 overlap with the fixed mesh frame structure 2.
[0049] In this way, during the working process, for example at night to reduce the soaking of Polygonatum by dew, the sliding mesh frame structure 4 is folded back to overlap with the fixed mesh frame structure 2, while during the day to increase the drying effect of sunlight, the sliding mesh frame structure 4 is pushed and pulled out to the left and right sides respectively. In this way, the amount of Chinese medicine dried can be increased while ensuring the drying effect through a single drying device.
[0050] Furthermore, this drying rack structure has lower material costs and requires fewer drying racks compared to traditional single-structure drying racks, making subsequent cleaning and maintenance more convenient and efficient.
[0051] Specifically, the support structure 1 includes support track sections 11 spaced apart on the left and right sides, with support connecting beam sections 12 welded between the two ends of each support track section 11; support beam sections 13 are fixedly installed at both ends of each support connecting beam section 12. The bottom of the support beam section 13 is fixedly installed on the ground (if an existing fixed installation method is used, a mounting base is welded to the bottom of the support beam section 13, and the mounting base is anchored to the ground by screws).
[0052] Example 2
[0053] like Figure 1-7 As shown, based on the structure of embodiment 1, the fixed mesh frame structure 2 includes a fixed frame 21 fixedly installed between the support track parts 11, and a metal mesh 22 (the metal mesh 22 is a stainless steel mesh used on the drying racks disclosed in the prior art) is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 21.
[0054] Below the aforementioned fixed space frame structure 2, there are two pairs of push-pull space frame structures 4; one pair of push-pull space frame structures 4 is pushed and pulled to the left; the other pair of push-pull space frame structures 4 is pushed and pulled to the right.
[0055] Specifically, four pairs of bottom slide rails 5 are fixedly installed on the support beams 13 respectively (the two sides of the bottom slide rails 5 are fixedly installed on the support beams 13 by fixing rods 51 respectively). Specifically, since one pair of push-pull mesh structures 4 are set to push and pull to the left and the other pair of push-pull mesh structures 4 are set to push and pull to the right, the design of the two pairs of bottom slide rails 5 is as follows: the two pairs of bottom slide rails 5 protrude to the left and the two pairs of bottom slide rails 5 protrude to the right.
[0056] The four sliding space frame structures 4 are arranged such that two slide to the left and two slide to the right, with the four structures staggered in height. That is, the pair of sliding space frame structures 4 that slide to the left are spaced apart vertically, and similarly, the sliding space frame structures 4 that slide to the right are spaced apart vertically.
[0057] The aforementioned push-pull grid structure 4 rolls and slides on the bottom slide rail 5 (a groove is provided on the bottom slide rail 5).
[0058] Specifically, the push-pull mesh frame structure 4 includes a push-pull frame, on which a metal mesh 22 (the metal mesh 22 is a stainless steel mesh) is fixedly connected.
[0059] Meanwhile, two pairs of bottom pulleys 41 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the sliding frame, which roll on the bottom slide rail 5.
[0060] During operation, the sliding frame can be easily pushed in the corresponding direction by pushing and pulling it.
[0061] Example 3
[0062] like Figure 1-7 As shown, this embodiment, based on the structure of embodiment 2, includes a telescopic cover structure 3 installed on the support structure 1. This is necessary to prevent nighttime moisture (dew) from wetting the plant tubers (Polygonatum) being dried, as all push-pull mesh frame structures 4 are pushed and pulled and in a retracted state at night. The telescopic cover structure 3 includes a retractable protective cover 31. The protective cover 31 is made of a flexible material, such as a flexible rainproof tarpaulin. During operation, the protective cover 31 can be opened to its longest state by pushing and pulling; in the retracted state, the telescopic cover is at its shortest length.
[0063] Specifically, the protective cover 31 includes several integrally formed V-shaped telescopic units; at the same time, the bottom of each V-shaped telescopic unit is supported by a bracket structure 33, and the bottom ends of the bracket structure 33 are respectively equipped with rollers 32 that roll on the support track 11 (correspondingly, a matching long groove is opened on the support track 11).
[0064] Specifically, the bracket structure 33 includes a transverse support rod 332 supported on a V-shaped telescopic unit. Both ends of the transverse support rod 332 are detachably mounted with vertical support rods 331 (the top of the vertical support rod 331 is fixedly mounted on the transverse support rod 332 by a screw, in that the upper and lower ends of the screw are respectively threaded into the threaded slots opened on the transverse support rod 332 and the vertical support rod 331). The bottom of the vertical support rod 331 is fixedly mounted with a roller 32.
[0065] During operation, when the cover is in the drying state, push the cover 31 to its shortest state (at this time, all rollers 32 and bracket structure 33 are in a compact state). At night, push and pull the cover 31 to its longest state. During this process, the rollers 32 slide and move on the support track 11.
[0066] This method of covering and protecting Solomon's seal for drying is convenient, requiring only a push-pull operation. Furthermore, the advantage lies in the fact that the entire cover 31 remains fixed due to the bracket structure 33 and rollers 32, making it less likely to be blown off by the wind. In contrast, the traditional method of using tarpaulins requires multiple people to operate, and covering a large number of drying racks in a drying area is labor-intensive. Moreover, the tarpaulin method also needs to prevent the tarpaulin from being blown off by the wind.
[0067] With the above structure, the cover operation and opening process only requires pushing the cover 31 to complete the cover operation.
[0068] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
