Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of plant-based medicinal slice production technology, and in particular relates to a spreading and drying device for the production of plant-based medicinal slices. Background Technology
[0002] Herbal decoction pieces, also known as prepared herbal medicine pieces, are Chinese medicinal materials that have been processed according to the theories and methods of traditional Chinese medicine and can be directly used in clinical practice. This concept indicates that there is no absolute boundary between Chinese medicinal materials and prepared herbal medicine pieces. Prepared herbal medicine pieces include some sliced Chinese medicinal materials processed at the place of origin, raw medicinal material pieces, and pieces that have been cut or roasted. When processing prepared herbal medicine pieces, they need to be dried in the sun, and drying equipment is commonly used for this purpose.

Detailed Implementation
[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0026] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A drying device for producing herbal slices includes a base 10, a rotating disk 11 rotatably mounted on the end face of the base 10, a sleeve 12 mounted on the end face of the rotating disk 11, a one-way threaded rod 43 rotatably mounted inside the sleeve 12, a first motor mounted inside the sleeve 12 at one end of the one-way threaded rod 43, the output shaft of the first motor being connected to the one-way threaded rod 43, a plurality of sliding rods 15 being threadedly slidably mounted on the outer surface of the one-way threaded rod 43, the plurality of sliding rods 15 extending outward from the sleeve 12, a plurality of sliding grooves being provided on the outer surface of the sleeve 12, the plurality of sliding grooves being slidably engaged with the plurality of sliding rods 15, a fixing rod 14 being fixedly mounted below each of the plurality of sliding rods 15 on the outer circumference of the sleeve 12, a mounting plate 16 being rotatably mounted at one end of each of the plurality of fixing rods 14, and the plurality of sliding rods 15 being fixedly mounted on the outer circumference of the sleeve 12. Each of the five mounting plates 5 has a connecting piece slidably mounted on one end. Multiple connecting pieces are connected to the bottom end face of the mounting plate 16. Each end face of the mounting plate 16 is provided with a drying net plate 17. When the angle of the drying net plate 17 needs to be adjusted, the first motor is started first. The output shaft of the first motor drives the one-way threaded rod 43 to rotate. The one-way threaded rod 43 drives the sliding rod 15 on the outer surface to slide. After the sliding rod 15 moves upward, it drives the connecting piece at one end to move, and the connecting piece drives the mounting plate 16 to move upward. Because the mounting plate 16 is rotatably connected to the fixed rod 14, the mounting plate 16 rotates along the fixed rod 14, and one end of the sliding rod 15 slides along the connecting piece. After the mounting plate 16 rotates, it drives the drying net plate 17 on the end face to rotate, thereby changing the angle of the drying net plate 17 and improving the drying efficiency.
[0027] Further reference Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 6 Each of the multiple drying racks 17 has a support base 18 at its bottom. By setting the drying racks 17, the height of the drying racks 17 can be raised and moved, allowing air to enter from one side of the drying racks 17, thereby improving drying efficiency. Each of the multiple drying racks 17 has a positioning rod 19 on its end face, which can be fastened to the support base 18. Each of the multiple support bases 18 has an elastic clip 20 inside, which can be fastened to the positioning rod 19. By setting the elastic clip 20, the multiple drying racks 17 can be stacked, and the connection between two drying racks 17 can be strengthened, thereby improving stability. A rainproof structure is slidably set on the top of the multiple drying racks 17.
[0028] Further reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The rainproof structure includes a mounting block 21 located at one end of the top of the sleeve 12. A bidirectional threaded rod 26 is rotatably mounted inside the mounting block 21. A second motor is mounted on one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 26 outside the mounting block 21, and the output shaft of the second motor is connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 26. Two threaded sliders 27 are slidably mounted on the outer surface of the bidirectional threaded rod 26, extending to both sides of the mounting block 21. Each of the two extended ends of the two threaded sliders 27 is equipped with a connecting block 28. Multiple connecting blocks 28... One end of the mounting block 21 is provided with a first storage box 24. The bottom of each of the two first storage boxes 24 is provided with a folded first water-blocking cloth 29. The bottom of each of the two first water-blocking cloths 29 is provided with a first counterweight 30. The bottom of each of the two first counterweights 30 is slidably provided with a first limiting block 25. Both ends of the mounting block 21 are provided with a stop block 22. One end of each of the two stop blocks 22 is provided with a first top block 23. Multiple first top blocks 23 are provided corresponding to the first limiting blocks 25. A humidity sensor 40 is provided on the end face of the mounting block 21.
[0029] The humidity sensor 40 can detect weather conditions. When rainy weather arrives, it sends a signal to the second motor and starts the second motor. After the second motor starts, it drives the bidirectional threaded rod 26 to rotate. The bidirectional threaded rod 26 drives the external threaded slider 27 to move relative to each other, so that the threaded slider 27 drives the external connecting block 28 to move relative to each other. The multiple connecting blocks 28 drive the first storage box 24 at the bottom to move. The first storage box 24 moves along the bidirectional threaded rod 26. When the first storage box 24 approaches the stop block 22, the first top block 23 on one side of the stop block 22 will contact the first limiting block 25. As the first storage box 24 continues to move, the first top block 23 pushes the first limiting block 25, so that the first limiting block 25 is separated from the outer surface of the first storage box 24. At this time, the first counterweight 30 falls downward because it loses the support of the first limiting block 25, and pulls down the folded first water-blocking cloth 29 by gravity, covering the first water-blocking cloth 29 on both sides of the drying net board 17.
[0030] Further reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The first storage box 24 is provided with an extension plate 31 on the top. A folded second water-blocking cloth 33 is provided on one side of the extension plate 31. A fixing plate 32 is provided at one end of the second water-blocking cloth 33. The fixing plate 32 is fixedly connected to the mounting block 21. When the first storage box 24 moves, it will drive the extension plate 31 on the top to move, so that the extension plate 31 moves away from the fixing plate 32. During the movement, the extension plate 31 will pull one end of the second water-blocking cloth 33, stretching the second water-blocking cloth 33 out and covering the top of the drying net plate 17 to prevent rainwater from damaging the slices.
[0031] The first storage box 24 has second storage boxes 34 at both ends. The outer surface of each second storage box 34 has a protrusion 35 that slides into the outer surface of the first storage box 24. Each second storage box 34 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 12. A third water-blocking cloth 36 is folded onto one side of each of the two second storage boxes 34. A second counterweight 37 is located at the bottom of the third water-blocking cloth 36. A second limiting block 38 is slidably mounted on the outside of the second counterweight 37. A second top block 39 is located on one side of the second limiting block 38 on the outer surface of the first storage box 24. When the first storage box 24 moves, it will cause the second top blocks 39 on both sides to move. When the second top blocks 39 move, they will contact the second limit block 38. After the second limit block 38 moves along the second storage box 34, it will detach from the second storage box 34. At this time, the second counterweight block 37 at the bottom of the third water-blocking cloth 36 loses the support of the second limit block 38 and falls downward. When the second counterweight block 37 falls, it will pull one end of the third water-blocking cloth 36, extending the third water-blocking cloth 36 to both sides of the drying net 17, thereby covering the drying net 17.
[0032] Further reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The base 10 has a rotatable gear ring 42 inside. A drive gear 41 is provided on one side of the gear ring 42 on the outer circumference of the rotating disk 11. The drive gear 41 is meshed with the gear ring 42 for transmission. A third motor is provided on the end face of the base 10. The output shaft of the third motor is connected to the gear ring 42 for transmission. By starting the third motor, the gear ring 42 can be driven to rotate, which in turn drives the drive gear 41 to rotate. The drive gear 41 then drives the rotating disk 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the top sleeve 12 and the drying net 17 to rotate. This allows the device to rotate over time, enabling the drying net 17 to adjust to the position of the sun and improve the drying quality.
