Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing technology, and in particular to a feeding mechanism for extracting the essence of traditional Chinese herbs. Background Technology

[0002] In order to remove insoluble impurities and solid residues and ensure the purity and effectiveness of the extract, the residue of Chinese herbal medicines needs to be filtered out before the essence extraction. Filtering out the residue is an important step to ensure that the extraction process of Chinese medicine is efficient, pure and reliable.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent CN221846146U, which discloses a feeding device for extracting traditional Chinese medicine, relating to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine processing. This invention includes a curved pipe with a filter plate inclined at the upper left and lower right. A feed pipe is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the curved pipe, positioned directly above the filter plate. A discharge pipe, aligned vertically with the feed pipe, is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the feed pipe. A tension plate is located at the left end of the curved pipe, and a pull rope is fixed between the tension plate and the left end of the filter plate. Springs are located at both the front and rear of the curved pipe. This invention uses the filter plate positioned directly below the feed pipe to filter the residue from the traditional Chinese medicine. Simultaneously, the tension plate, via the pull rope, moves the filter plate up and down, thus shaking the traditional Chinese medicine, solving the problems of insufficient filtration and easy clogging of the medicine.

[0004] The above-mentioned traditional Chinese medicine extraction feeding device has the following shortcomings: the effect of filtering out the residue is not ideal. During the filtration process, the residue may enter the curved pipe along with the Chinese herbal medicine and be injected into the extraction device through the curved pipe. The residue may enter the extract liquid and introduce impurities, affecting the quality and purity of the final product. Therefore, it is necessary to design a feeding mechanism for extracting the essence of traditional Chinese medicine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a feeding mechanism for extracting the essence of traditional Chinese medicine.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A feeding mechanism for extracting essence from traditional Chinese medicine includes a feeding pipe with a screening box inside. Slide grooves are formed on both sides of the feeding pipe. A filter plate is provided at the bottom of the screening box. A fixed plate is fixedly connected to one end of the screening box. A fixed frame is fitted onto the fixed plate and rotatably connected to the fixed plate. Slider blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the fixed frame and are disposed within the slide grooves. The sliders are slidably connected to the feeding pipe. A movable disk is fixedly connected to one slider on the side away from the fixed frame. A fixed shaft is provided inside the movable disk. A roller is rotatably connected to one end of the fixed shaft. A rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed shaft away from the roller. A U-shaped frame is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the feeding pipe. A motor is fixedly connected to the U-shaped frame, which is fitted onto the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft rotates. By connecting a U-shaped frame and setting up a screening box and filter plate, the raw materials of traditional Chinese medicine are screened, allowing the residue to be discharged through the filter plate while the Chinese medicine remains in the screening box. During the filtration process, the screening box and filter plate move back and forth to prevent the raw materials from accumulating on the surface of the filter plate and causing blockage. This effectively solves the problem mentioned in the background technology that the filtration effect of the residue is not ideal. In the process of filtering the residue, the inclined filter plate may allow the residue to enter the curved pipe along with the Chinese medicine during the filtration process. If the residue enters the extraction device through the curved pipe, it may introduce impurities into the extract, affecting the quality and purity of the final product. This technology achieves the technical effect of effectively separating the residue and the Chinese medicine, reducing the entry of impurities into the extraction device, ensuring the purity and quality of the extract, preventing the filter plate from clogging, maintaining smooth filtration, and improving the stability and continuity of equipment operation.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the feeding pipe is provided with a feeding port.

[0009] Preferably, a slag discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the feed pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the screening box is provided with a push plate inside, and a handle is fixedly connected to one side of the push plate. The handle passes through one side of the screening box and is slidably connected to the screening box. The handle has a hole, and a pin is provided in the hole. A limiting plate is sleeved on the bottom end of the pin, and the limiting plate is fixedly connected to the fixing frame.

[0011] Preferably, the push plate has two guide rods fixedly connected to the side near the handle, the guide rods passing through the screening box and slidably connected to the screening box.

[0012] Preferably, the push plate is fixedly connected to a connecting plate on the side away from the handle, the connecting plate is fitted with an insert plate, the insert plate is rotatably connected to the connecting plate, the insert plate is fitted with a sleeve plate, the shafts at both ends of the sleeve plate pass through the screening box, the sleeve plate is connected to the screening box, and the insert plate is slidably connected to the sleeve plate.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] By setting up a screening box and filter plate to screen the raw materials of traditional Chinese medicine, the residue is discharged through the filter plate while the Chinese medicine remains in the screening box. During the filtration process, the screening box and filter plate move back and forth to prevent the raw materials from accumulating on the surface of the filter plate and causing blockage. This effectively solves the problem mentioned in the background technology that the filtration effect of the residue is not ideal. In the process of filtering the residue, the inclined filter plate may allow the residue to enter the curved pipe along with the Chinese medicine during the filtration process. The residue enters the extract through the curved pipe and may introduce impurities, affecting the quality and purity of the final product. Thus, this technology can effectively separate the residue and Chinese medicine, reduce the impurities entering the extraction device, ensure the purity and quality of the extract, prevent the filter plate from clogging, maintain smooth filtration, and improve the stability and continuity of equipment operation.

[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 of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-7 A feeding mechanism for extracting the essence of traditional Chinese medicine includes a feeding pipe 1, a screening box 2 inside the feeding pipe 1, and grooves 3 on both sides of the feeding pipe 1. A filter plate 201 is provided at the bottom of the screening box 2. A fixing plate 12 is fixedly connected to one end of the bottom of the screening box 2. A fixing frame 11 is fitted onto the fixing plate 12 and is rotatably connected to the fixing plate 12. Slider 4s are fixedly connected to both sides of the fixing frame 11 and are disposed in the grooves 3. The slider 4s are slidably connected to the feeding pipe 1. A movable disk 5 is fixedly connected to one slider 4 on the side away from the fixing frame 11. A fixed shaft 6 is provided inside the movable disk 5. A roller 7 is rotatably connected to one end of the fixed shaft 6. A rotating shaft 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed shaft 6 away from the roller 7. A U-shaped frame 9 is fixedly connected to one outer wall of the feeding pipe 1. A motor 10 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped frame 9 and is fitted onto the rotating shaft 8. The rotating shaft 8 is connected to the U-shaped frame 9. By setting up a screening box and filter plate, the raw materials of traditional Chinese medicine are screened, allowing the dregs to be discharged through the filter plate while the medicinal herbs remain in the screening box. During the dregs filtration process, the screening box and filter plate reciprocate to prevent the raw materials from accumulating on the surface of the filter plate and causing blockage. This effectively solves the problem mentioned in the background technology that the dregs filtration effect is not ideal. Furthermore, during the filtration process, the inclined filter plate may allow the dregs to enter the curved pipe along with the medicinal herbs, and then be injected into the extraction device. The dregs entering the extract may introduce impurities, affecting the quality and purity of the final product. Therefore, this technology achieves effective separation of dregs and medicinal herbs, reduces impurities entering the extraction device, ensures the purity and quality of the extract, prevents filter plate blockage, maintains smooth filtration, and improves the stability and continuity of equipment operation.

[0025] In this utility model, the top of the feeding pipe 1 is provided with a feeding port 13, through which raw materials are injected into the screening box 2.

[0026] In this utility model, a slag discharge pipe 14 is provided at the bottom of the feed pipe 1, through which the filtered slag is thrown out.

[0027] In this utility model, a push plate 15 is provided inside the screening box 2. A handle 16 is fixedly connected to one side of the push plate 15. The handle 16 passes through one side of the screening box 2 and is slidably connected to the screening box 2. An insertion hole 17 is provided on the handle 16. A pin 18 is provided in the insertion hole 17. A limiting plate 19 is sleeved on the bottom end of the pin 18. The limiting plate 19 is fixedly connected to the fixing frame 11. When the pin 18 is inserted into the limiting plate 19, the position of the handle 16 and the screening box 2 can be restricted, preventing the push plate 15 from moving inside the screening box 2 and preventing the screening box 2 from tilting when moving back and forth.

[0028] In this utility model, the push plate 15 is fixedly connected to two guide rods 20 on the side near the handle 16. The guide rods 20 pass through the screening box 2 and are slidably connected to the screening box 2. When the push plate 15 moves, it will drive the guide rods 20 to move through the holes in the screening box 2, ensuring the stability of the push plate 15 when it moves.

[0029] In this utility model, a connecting plate 21 is fixedly connected to the push plate 15 on the side away from the handle 16. The connecting plate 21 is fitted with an insert plate 22, which is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 21. The insert plate 22 is fitted with a sleeve plate 23, and the shafts at both ends of the sleeve plate 23 are inserted into the screening box 2. The sleeve plate 23 screens the box 2, and the insert plate 22 is slidably connected to the sleeve plate 23. When it is necessary to discharge the Chinese herbal medicine in the screening box 2, the handle 16 is pushed to move the push plate 15. The push plate 15 will drive the connecting plate 21 to move. The connecting plate 21 will drive the insert plate 22 to gradually tilt and move inside the sleeve plate 23, so that both the insert plate 22 and the sleeve plate 23 can tilt, exposing the opening of the screening box 2. This allows the screening box 2 to tilt and discharge the Chinese herbal medicine in the screening box 2, allowing the Chinese herbal medicine to enter the extraction device.

[0030] Working principle: During use, the raw materials are injected into the screening box 2 through the feed inlet 13, keeping the pin 18 within the insertion hole 17 and the limiting plate 19. An external power supply is used. The motor 10 is started via PLC. The output of the motor 10 drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate, which in turn drives the fixed shaft 6 to rotate. The fixed shaft 6 then drives the roller 7 to move. The roller 7 moves within the moving disc 5, continuously pressing against it, causing the moving disc 5 to reciprocate. The movement of the moving disc 5 drives the slider 4 to move along the chute 3. The movement of the slider 4 drives the fixed frame 11 to move, which in turn drives the fixed plate 12 to move. The fixed plate 12 then drives the screening box 2 to move. This movement of the screening box 2 causes the raw materials inside to tumble and collide, preventing accumulation on the surface of the filter plate 201. This allows for faster separation of the medicinal residue and the herbs. The residue passes through the filter plate... Plate 201 is discharged and finally discharged through slag outlet pipe 14. After the slag filtration is completed, the screening box 2 is moved towards the bend closest to the feed pipe 1. The motor 10 is turned off, and the pin 18 is removed from the insertion hole 17 and the limiting plate 19. The screening box 2 is tilted with the intersection of the fixing frame 11 and the fixing plate 12 as the center. Then, the handle 16 is pushed, which will drive the push plate 15 to move. The push plate 15 will drive the connecting plate 21 to move. The connecting plate 21 will drive the insertion plate 22 to move and tilt with the intersection of the sleeve plate 23 and the screening box 2 as the center. The tilting of the insertion plate 22 will cause the sleeve plate 23 to tilt, gradually opening the opening of the screening box 2. The push plate 15 continues to move, which can discharge the Chinese herbal medicine in the screening box 2 and inject it into the extraction device through the feed pipe 1. Then, the handle 16 is returned to the initial position, and the pin 18 is inserted into the insertion hole 17 and the limiting plate 19.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
