Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing technology, specifically a conveying device for processing traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] In the Chinese herbal medicine processing industry, the transportation of medicinal materials is crucial for ensuring production continuity and processing quality. Currently, most common herbal medicine conveying devices on the market are fixed structures, and their conveying angle and position are difficult to adjust flexibly according to the needs of different processing steps. For example, in multiple processing steps such as washing, slicing, and drying of medicinal materials, the feeding height and position of different equipment vary. Traditional conveying devices, because they cannot adjust the tilt angle, often require additional transfer equipment or manual handling to connect the steps, which not only increases labor costs but also reduces production efficiency and is difficult to adapt to diverse processing scenarios.

[0003] Meanwhile, during the transportation of Chinese medicinal herbs, localized temperature increases are prone to occur due to friction in the conveying components and the influence of ambient temperature. Some components of these herbs are highly sensitive to temperature; high temperatures may lead to the loss of active ingredients or alteration of medicinal properties, affecting the quality of the final product. Most existing conveying devices lack specific temperature control structures, and relying solely on natural heat dissipation is insufficient to meet the transportation needs of temperature-sensitive herbs, especially during continuous long-term operation, where temperature control is even less effective. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a conveying device for processing Chinese medicinal materials, characterized in that it comprises:

[0005] The support part includes a support movable plate, which is movably mounted on the support base plate;

[0006] The conveying unit is disposed on the bearing movable plate. The conveying unit includes a conveying cylinder disposed on the bearing movable plate. A conveying hopper is provided at one end of the conveying cylinder, and a conveying outlet is provided at the other end of the conveying cylinder. A conveying shaft is rotatably disposed inside the conveying cylinder.

[0007] The circulation section is located outside the conveying cylinder. The circulation section includes a circulation pipe that surrounds the outer surface of the conveying cylinder. One end of the circulation pipe is connected to the bottom of the circulating water tank through a circulation shell, and the other end of the circulation pipe is located at the top of the circulating water tank. An impeller is rotatably arranged inside the circulation shell, and the impeller is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the circulation motor.

[0008] Furthermore, the conveying shaft is mounted on the output shaft of the conveying motor via a conveying coupling, and a conveying side plate is detachably mounted on the end of the conveying cylinder via bolts.

[0009] Furthermore, a circulating drain pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the circulating water tank, and a solenoid valve is installed on the circulating drain pipe.

[0010] Furthermore, filters are installed at both ends of the circulation pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, both the conveying cylinder and the circulation pipe are made of copper.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom of the supporting base plate is provided with multiple rollers for movement.

[0013] Furthermore, a first bearing movable shaft is rotatably mounted on the bearing base plate, and a bearing screw is threaded onto the first bearing movable shaft. A bearing adjustment block is fixedly mounted on one end of the bearing screw, and the other end of the bearing screw is rotatably mounted on a second bearing movable shaft, which is rotatably mounted on the bearing movable plate.

[0014] The advantages of this utility model compared with the prior art are:

[0015] 1. This utility model achieves flexible adjustment of the conveying angle through the structural design of the bearing unit. The first and second bearing movable shafts on the bearing base plate form a linked structure. The operator can rotate the bearing adjustment block to drive the bearing screw to extend or retract, thereby changing the tilt angle of the bearing movable plate and synchronizing the tilt angles of the conveying and circulating parts. This design effectively solves the problem that traditional fixed conveying devices cannot adapt to differences in the feeding height and position of different processing equipment. It allows for seamless connection of multiple processes such as washing, slicing, and drying without additional transfer equipment or manual handling, significantly reducing labor costs and improving production continuity and operational efficiency.

[0016] 2. This invention establishes a targeted temperature control system through a circulation section. A circulation pipe surrounding the outer surface of the conveyor cylinder, along with a circulating water tank and a circulating motor, forms a cooling water circulation loop. When the circulating motor drives the impeller to rotate, cooling water continuously flows within the circulation pipe, quickly removing heat generated by friction within the conveyor cylinder and preventing localized temperature increases during transport. Compared to traditional natural heat dissipation methods, this active cooling structure can more efficiently control the ambient temperature during transport, making it particularly suitable for continuous, long-term operation scenarios.

[0017] 3. Both the conveying cylinder and the circulation pipe of this utility model are made of copper. Copper has excellent thermal conductivity, which can accelerate the transfer of heat from the conveying cylinder to the circulation pipe. Combined with the continuous heat dissipation of the circulating water, the temperature control effect is further improved. This design effectively solves the problem of loss of effective components or alteration of medicinal properties of temperature-sensitive Chinese medicinal materials due to high temperatures during transportation, thus ensuring the processing quality of the Chinese medicinal materials.

The bearing movable shaft two 305 is rotatably mounted on the bearing movable plate 302.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the conveying unit 2 is mounted on the supporting movable plate 302. The conveying unit 2 includes a conveying motor 201, a conveying coupling 202, a conveying hopper 203, a conveying cylinder 204, a conveying outlet 205, a conveying shaft 206, and a conveying side plate 207. The conveying cylinder 204 is fixedly mounted on the supporting movable plate 302. One end of the conveying cylinder 204 is provided with a conveying hopper 203. The conveying hopper 203 and the conveying cylinder 204 have hollow interiors and are interconnected. The other end of the conveying cylinder 204 is fixedly provided with a conveying outlet 205. The conveying outlet 205 has a hollow interior and is connected to the conveying cylinder 204. The conveying shaft 206 is rotatably mounted inside the conveying cylinder 204. The conveying cylinder 204 and the circulation pipe 105 are both made of copper. The conveying shaft 206 is mounted on the output shaft of the conveying motor 201 via the conveying coupling 202. The conveying motor 201 is fixedly mounted on the bearing movable plate 302. The end of the conveying cylinder 204 is detachably mounted with a conveying side plate 207 via bolts.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the circulation section 1 is located outside the conveying cylinder 204. The circulation section 1 includes a circulating water tank 101, a circulating motor 102, a circulating housing 103, a circulating drain pipe 104, and a circulating pipe 105.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the working principle of the conveying device for processing Chinese medicinal materials disclosed in this utility model is as follows:

[0030] According to the processing requirements of medicinal materials, the operator rotates the bearing adjustment block 303. The rotation of the bearing adjustment block 303 drives the bearing screw 306 to rotate. The rotation of the bearing screw 306 thereby adjusts the tilt angle of the bearing movable plate 302. While the tilt angle of the bearing movable plate 302 is changed, the tilt angle of the conveying part 2 and the circulation part 1 are also changed, so as to realize the angle and position adjustment of the medicinal material conveying, which improves the applicability.

[0031] During the transport of medicinal materials, the materials to be transported are placed into the conveying hopper 203, and the conveying motor 201 is turned on. The rotation of the conveying motor 201 drives the conveying shaft 206 to rotate through the conveying coupling 202. The rotation of the conveying shaft 206 moves the medicinal materials, thus achieving the transport of the materials. The medicinal materials are finally discharged from the conveying outlet 205. During the transport process, the circulation motor 102 is turned on. The rotation of the circulation motor 102 drives the impeller to rotate, which in turn drives the cooling water in the circulating water tank 101 to circulate from the circulating outer shell 103, the circulating pipe 105, and the circulating water tank 101 to cool the conveying cylinder 204, removing the heat generated during the transport of the medicinal materials and ensuring that the temperature does not affect the medicinal properties of the materials. To further improve the cooling performance, a mixture of ice and water can be added to the circulating water tank 101 to achieve ice-water circulation and further enhance the cooling performance.
