Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of decoction device technology, and in particular to decoction machine. Background Technology

[0002] Dried tangerine peel (Chenpi) has the effects of regulating qi and strengthening the spleen, drying dampness and resolving phlegm, and is widely used in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. With the improvement of people's health awareness, the demand for health products and medicines related to dried tangerine peel is constantly increasing, and the dried tangerine peel industry is showing a rapid development trend. It is not only sold in traditional Chinese medicine stores and hospitals, but is also gradually entering the health product market and food market. This requires a large number of efficient and high-quality production equipment to meet market demand. As a key piece of equipment for decocting the medicinal liquid of dried tangerine peel in the process of making dried tangerine peel pills, the importance of the decoction machine is becoming increasingly prominent.

[0003] Dried tangerine peel is obtained by drying the peel of citrus fruits. It has a relatively low density and many tiny pores on its surface. These pores are filled with air, which causes some of the tangerine peel to float on the water surface due to the buoyancy of the air. This affects the quality and efficacy of the decoction. At the same time, the dregs left after decoction will remain at the bottom of the decoction pot and are inconvenient to clean.

[0004] In response to the technical problems that some dried tangerine peel floats on the water surface, affecting the quality of decoction, and that the dregs of the decoction remain at the bottom of the decoction pot, making it inconvenient to clean, this application proposes a decoction machine.

[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. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 An embodiment of this utility model provides a decoction machine, including a base 1, a decoction barrel 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a sleeve 3 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the decoction barrel 2, a support rod 4 slidably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 3, a spring 5 fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the sleeve 3, the top of the spring 5 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support rod 4, a fixing ring 6 provided on the outer wall of the support rod 4, a placement frame 9 fixedly connected to the top of the fixing ring 6 at its bottom, L-shaped slots 8 provided on both sides of the inner wall of the fixing ring 6, and protrusions 7 fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the support rod 4, the protrusions 7 being located on the inner wall of the L-shaped slots 8.

[0025] Specifically, after the medicine liquid is drained, the placement frame 9 can be rotated to move the protrusion 7 on the support rod 4 into the L-shaped groove 8 in the fixing ring 6, so that the protrusion 7 moves from the horizontal groove in the L-shaped groove 8 to the vertical groove. Then the placement frame 9 is moved up and removed. Subsequently, the placement frame 9 and the decoction pot 2 are cleaned. The protrusion 7 is slightly larger than the L-shaped groove 8 and has a certain elasticity. The sleeve 3 and the support rod 4 have good sealing performance, so that the medicine liquid cannot enter the inside of the sleeve 3. At the same time, the spring 5 has high temperature resistance, so that the spring 5 will not be affected by the decoction in the decoction pot 2.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-3The decoction pot 2 is rotatably connected to a lid 10. The lid 10 is fixedly connected to a support column 11. The inner wall of the support column 11 is rotatably connected to a screw 13. The outer wall of the screw 13 is threadedly connected to a lifting cylinder 14. The outer wall of the lifting cylinder 14 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support column 11. The top of the pressure cap 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting cylinder 14. The top of the screw 13 is fixedly connected to a handwheel 12 for driving the screw 13 to rotate. The pressure cap 15 is located at the bottom of the lid 10. The pressure cap 15 and the outer wall of the placement frame 9 are both provided with multiple holes. The outer diameter of the pressure cap 15 and the placement frame 9 are the same. The right end of the decoction pot 2 is fixedly connected to a water outlet pipe 16. The top of the lid 10 is equipped with a pressure relief valve 17.

[0027] Specifically, after the dried medicinal materials such as tangerine peel are processed, their density is relatively low, making them easy to float on the water surface. Therefore, the pressure cap 15 is placed on the placement frame 9, pressing the placement frame 9 into the water to decoct the medicinal materials such as tangerine peel. The size of the pressure cap 15 is just right to cover the placement frame 9. The holes on the placement frame 9 and the pressure cap 15 allow water to come into contact with the medicinal materials such as tangerine peel through the placement frame 9. After the decoction is completed, the internal steam is released by opening the pressure relief valve 17 to prevent the pressure from being too high to open the lid 10. A valve is installed on the water outlet pipe 16 to control the opening and closing of the water outlet pipe 16.

[0028] Working principle: In use, first add water to the decoction pot 2, then put the dried tangerine peel or other Chinese medicinal herbs to be decocted into a specially made non-woven bag, tie the opening, and place it in the placement frame 9. Then, close the pot lid 10, and turn the handwheel 12 on top of the lid 10. The handwheel 12 drives the screw 13 to rotate, which in turn drives the lifting cylinder 14 to move downwards. The lifting cylinder 14 then drives the pressure cap 15 to move downwards, which then covers the placement frame 9 and causes the placement frame 9 to move downwards. This causes the placement frame 9 to move the support rod 4 downwards, compressing the spring 5. At this time, the placement frame 9 moves the decoction... The medicine bag is located in the middle of the decoction pot 2. Then, the heating device inside the base 1 is activated by the controller to heat the decoction pot 2. After the decoction is finished, the handwheel 12 is turned in the opposite direction, which drives the screw 13 to rotate. The screw 13 then drives the pressure cover 15 to move upward through the lifting cylinder 14. At this time, the compressed spring 5 rebounds the support rod 4, which drives the placement frame 9 to move upward. This allows the dregs of the decoction in the placement frame 9 to rise to the top of the decoction pot 2. Then, the pot lid 10 is opened to facilitate the cleaning of the rising dregs. The liquid can be discharged through the water outlet pipe 16.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
