Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing technology, and in particular to a mixing device for quantitative dispensing of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Background Technology
[0002] A mixing device for quantitative dispensing of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces is a device that can accurately dispense different traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces according to a certain dosage and mix them evenly together. One type is the four-head spiral dispensing machine, which has the following structure:
[0003] 1. Storage device: It consists of multiple independent silos for storing different Chinese medicinal herbs separately;
[0004] 2. Quantitative dispensing device: It mainly consists of four sets of spiral propellers and their driving mechanisms. Each set of spiral propellers includes a spiral shaft and spiral blades. The spiral shaft is usually driven by a servo motor. The servo motor can accurately control the speed and number of rotations of the spiral shaft, thereby accurately controlling the amount of Chinese herbal medicine slices dispensed.
[0005] The material enters the screw propeller from the storage device through the hopper. Under the push of the screw blades, it is quantitatively transported to the packaging container below. During this process, various Chinese herbal medicine pieces come out from the same hopper to complete the mixing of Chinese herbal medicine pieces.
[0006] Staff members set the parameters for quantitative dispensing of Chinese herbal medicine slices through the control panel. If, during the operation of the device, staff members lean over to check the material loading and conveying inside the device, they may accidentally touch the buttons on the control panel due to being too close to the device, causing changes in the device parameters. This can lead to deviations in the proportion of Chinese herbal medicine slices and affect the final product quality. Utility Model Content
[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a mixing device for quantitative dispensing of Chinese herbal medicine slices. It solves the technical problem that when operators set the quantitative dispensing parameters of Chinese herbal medicine slices through the operation panel, if they are too close to the device during operation and are looking at the material filling and conveying inside the device, they may accidentally touch the buttons on the operation panel, causing changes in the device parameters, which will lead to deviations in the proportion of Chinese herbal medicine slices and affect the final product quality.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0009] A mixing device for quantitative dispensing of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces includes a housing. A shield is provided on the outside of the housing to cover the operation panel. A moving mechanism for moving the shield is provided at one end of the housing corresponding to the shield. The moving mechanism includes a guide rail plate and a slider. The guide rail plate is located outside the housing, and the slider is slidably connected to the outside of the guide rail plate. The slider is located outside the shield. A limiting block is provided at one end of the shield near the slider to restrict the downward movement of the shield. A groove is formed on one side of the shield corresponding to the limiting block, and the limiting block is slidably connected to the inside of the groove.
[0010] Preferably, the side of the baffle corresponding to the slide groove has a moving groove, and a limiting plate is slidably connected inside the moving groove. The limiting plate is fixedly installed outside the limiting block and is used to limit the moving range of the limiting block.
[0011] Preferably, a spring for supporting the limiting block is fixedly connected inside the slide, and the spring is fixedly connected to the outside of the limiting block.
[0012] Preferably, both ends of the guide rail plate are rotatably connected with bolts, and the outer shell has threaded holes on one side corresponding to each bolt, with the bolts threaded into the inside of the threaded holes.
[0013] Preferably, the outer side of the baffle plate has a slot, the slider is engaged inside the slot, the side of the baffle plate corresponding to the slot has a through hole, the inside of the through hole is rotatably connected to a bolt, the outer side of the slider has a screw hole, and the bolt is threaded into the inside of the screw hole.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. After setting the parameters for the quantitative dispensing of Chinese herbal medicine slices through the operation panel, push the limit block to make it enter the interior of the chute. Then, move the baffle down to cover the operation panel, isolating the operator from the operation panel and preventing parameter changes due to accidental button presses. This avoids imbalances in the proportion of Chinese herbal medicine slices due to parameter deviations, ensuring the quality of subsequent products and reducing the production of unqualified products.
[0016] Second, when the baffle moves upward to a certain position, one end of the limit block pops out of the slide groove under the action of the spring, preventing the baffle from moving downward and keeping the operation panel in an operable state, thereby improving the convenience of operation.

[0023] This application provides a mixing device for quantitative dispensing of Chinese herbal medicine pieces. It effectively solves the technical problem that if the operator sets the quantitative dispensing parameters of Chinese herbal medicine pieces through the operation panel, and the operator leans over to check the filling and conveying of materials inside the device during operation, the operator may accidentally touch the buttons on the operation panel due to being too close to the device, causing the device parameters to change, resulting in deviations in the proportion of Chinese herbal medicine pieces and affecting the final product quality.
[0024] Example
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the technical solution in this application embodiment effectively solves the technical problem that when staff set the parameters for quantitative dispensing of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces through the operation panel, if, during the operation of the device, staff lean over to check the material loading and conveying inside the device, they may accidentally touch the buttons on the operation panel due to being too close to the device, causing changes in the device parameters, resulting in deviations in the proportion of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces and affecting the final product quality. The overall idea is as follows:
[0026] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a mixing device for quantitative dispensing of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, including a shell 1. A shield 2 for covering the operation panel is provided on the outside of the shell 1. A moving mechanism for moving the shield 2 is provided at one end of the shell 1 corresponding to the shield 2. The moving mechanism includes a guide rail 3 and a slider 4. The guide rail 3 is provided on the outside of the shell 1, and the slider 4 is slidably connected to the outside of the guide rail 3 and the outside of the shield 2.
[0027] The end of the baffle plate 2 near the slider 4 is provided with a limiting block 5 to restrict the downward movement of the baffle plate 2. The side of the baffle plate 2 corresponding to the limiting block 5 is provided with a groove 6, and the limiting block 5 is slidably connected inside the groove 6.
[0028] The shield 2 has a movable groove 7 on one side corresponding to the slide 6. The movable groove 7 communicates with the interior of the slide 6. A limiting plate 8 is slidably connected inside the movable groove 7. The limiting plate 8 is fixedly installed on the outside of the limiting block 5 and is used to limit the movement range of the limiting block 5.
[0029] The inside of the slide 6 is fixedly connected to a spring 9 for supporting the limiting block 5, and the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the outside of the limiting block 5.
[0030] Both ends of the guide rail plate 3 are rotatably connected with bolts 10. The outer shell 1 has a threaded hole 11 on one side corresponding to each bolt 10, and the bolt 10 is threaded into the inside of the threaded hole 11.
[0031] The outer side of the baffle plate 2 has a slot 12, and the slider 4 is engaged inside the slot 12. The side of the baffle plate 2 corresponding to the slot 12 has a through hole 13, which communicates with the inside of the slot 12. The inside of the through hole 13 is rotatably connected to a bolt 14. The outer side of the slider 4 has a screw hole 15, and the bolt 14 is threaded into the inside of the screw hole 15.
[0032] Shielding plate 2: After setting the quantitative dosing parameters of Chinese herbal medicine slices, the control panel is shielded, which improves the safety of device operation and avoids parameter changes due to accidental touch of the control panel;
[0033] Moving mechanism: The slider 4 cooperates with the guide rail 3 to enable the shielding plate 2 to move up and down along the guide rail 3, thereby shielding and revealing the operation panel.
[0034] Limiting block 5, spring 9 and slide 6: When the baffle 2 moves upward to a certain position, one end of the limiting block 5 pops out of the slide 6 under the action of the spring 9, blocking the baffle 2 from moving downward and keeping the operation panel in an operable state.
[0035] Moving groove 7 and limiting plate 8: to prevent the limiting plate 8 from failing to properly limit the position due to the limiting block 5 disengaging from the sliding groove 6;
[0036] Bolt 10 and threaded hole 11: facilitate the installation and disassembly of guide plate 3. When it is necessary to repair or replace guide plate 3 or other components, guide plate 3 can be disassembled by disconnecting the connection between bolt 10 and threaded hole 11, which improves the maintenance convenience of the device.
[0037] Slot 12, bolt 2 14 and screw hole 15: Slot 12 can position the slider 4 on the baffle plate 2. Then, through the cooperation of bolt 2 14 and screw hole 15, the connection stability between slider 4 and baffle plate 2 is further strengthened, preventing slider 4 from detaching from baffle plate 2 during movement, thus improving the overall stability and reliability of the device.
[0038] Working principle:
[0039] First, after setting the parameters for quantitative dispensing of Chinese herbal medicine slices through the operation panel, push the limiting block 5 to enter the interior of the slide 6. At this time, the spring 9 is compressed. Then, the baffle 2 can be moved downward to block the operation panel. During this process, the limiting block 5 is blocked by the guide rail plate 3 and cannot move.
[0040] The second step is to move the baffle 2 upwards when the parameters need to be set again until the limit block 5 can move outwards under the action of the spring 9. At this time, the limit block 5 is located on the upper surface of the guide plate 3, and the baffle 2 cannot move downwards due to the obstruction of the limit block 5.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
