Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces technology, and in particular to a quality inspection device for the production of fermented decoction pieces. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) decoction pieces, fermentation is required to transform the TCM's active ingredients from large molecules into smaller molecules, such as amino acids, that can be absorbed by the human intestines. This transforms TCM into a new type of drug with rapid absorption and quantitative therapeutic effects. Before fermentation, the shape, size, color, and surface characteristics of the TCM decoction pieces must be inspected to check for defects such as mold, insect infestation, oiliness, and spoilage.

[0003] A device for quality inspection and quantification of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) decoction pieces, with publication number CN221445879U, includes a base, a top plate fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the base, a quality inspection machine fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the top plate, a detection lens at the output end of the quality inspection machine, and an LED light fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the top plate. In this device, a pharmacist places the TCM decoction pieces onto a fixed plate, then uses a handle to control a silicone head fixedly mounted on the lower surface of a scraper to contact the TCM decoction pieces, dispersing any piled pieces onto the fixed plate and allowing them to fall into the placement opening. Excess pieces are scraped onto a long plate by the scraper. The pharmacist operates the quality inspection machine to control the lens for recording and testing.

[0004] The aforementioned existing technology can avoid picking each piece of Chinese herbal medicine from piles, reducing the labor intensity of workers and improving the efficiency of quality inspection. However, it still requires workers to use a scraper to disperse the herbs into the trough, which is not convenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the need for workers to use scrapers to disperse the medicinal slices into the trough, which is inconvenient to use. Therefore, this invention proposes a quality inspection device for the production of fermented medicinal slices.

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

[0007] Design a quality inspection device for fermented medicinal slices production, including a base, a circular frame fixedly installed on the top of the base, a plurality of medicinal slice placement openings located within the circular frame on the top of the base, a cylinder concentric with the circular frame rotatably installed on the top of the base via a drive assembly, an arc-shaped scraper for rotating and pushing the medicinal slices fixedly installed on the outer wall of the cylinder, and the outer end of the arc-shaped scraper slidably connected to the circular frame;

[0008] The inside of the herbal slice placement opening is provided with a pop-out component, which is used to push out the herbal slices inside the herbal slice placement opening;

[0009] A gantry frame is fixedly installed on the top of the base, and a detection lens is fixedly installed on the bottom of the top plate of the gantry frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a mounting plate fixedly installed in the base, a motor fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting plate, the output shaft of the motor passing through the mounting plate and fixedly connected to a rotating shaft located above the mounting plate, the upper end of the rotating shaft passing through and rotatably connected to the base, and the upper end of the rotating shaft being fixedly installed in a cylinder by fasteners.

[0011] Furthermore, the pop-up component includes a lifting plate that is installed in the base via a lifting assembly. Several top columns are fixedly installed on the upper end of the lifting plate, and the upper ends of the top columns penetrate the base and are respectively inserted into several food slice placement openings.

[0012] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a pair of guide tubes and a driving component fixedly installed in the base. Guide columns are inserted into the inside of the pair of guide tubes, and a lifting plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the pair of guide columns. The output shaft of the driving component is fixedly connected to the lifting plate.

[0013] Furthermore, an arc-shaped silicone head is fixedly installed at the bottom of the arc-shaped scraper, and the bottom of the arc-shaped silicone head is slidably connected to the upper end face of the machine base.

[0014] Furthermore, a pair of lighting lamps are fixedly installed on the bottom of the top plate of the gantry frame, located on both sides, with the lighting direction of the pair of lighting lamps facing several food slice placement openings.

[0015] The present invention proposes a quality inspection device for the production of fermented medicinal slices, which has the following advantages: the device drives the arc-shaped scraper to rotate counterclockwise and clockwise alternately through the drive component, so that the medicinal slices move back and forth in the middle while rotating. This not only automatically spreads the medicinal slices poured into the circular frame into several medicinal slice placement openings, so that the detection lens can take pictures and inspect the medicinal slices, but also eliminates the need for manual leveling.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] 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.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-4 As an embodiment of this utility model, a quality inspection device for the production of fermented medicinal slices is disclosed, including a base 1. A circular frame 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1. A plurality of medicinal slice placement ports 3 located inside the circular frame 2 are opened on the top of the base 1. A cylinder 5 concentric with the circular frame 2 is rotatably installed on the top of the base 1 through a drive assembly 4. An arc-shaped scraper 6 for rotating and pushing the medicinal slices is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the cylinder 5. The outer end of the arc-shaped scraper 6 is slidably connected to the circular frame 2.

[0023] The drive component 4 drives the cylinder 5 to rotate clockwise, which in turn drives the arc scraper 6 to rotate clockwise. This causes the outer arc surface of the rotating arc scraper 6 to push the pile of beverage pieces to rotate around the cylinder 5 inside the circular frame 2. As the beverage pieces at the bottom move, they gradually align with several beverage piece placement openings 3 and fall into the beverage piece placement openings 3. At the same time, the beverage pieces that do not enter the beverage piece placement openings 3 move closer to the circular frame 2 along the outer arc surface of the arc scraper 6.

[0024] Driven by the drive component 4, the cylinder 5 and the arc-shaped scraper 6 rotate counterclockwise, thereby causing the inner arc surface of the rotating arc scraper 6 to push the pile of beverage pieces to rotate around the cylinder 5 in the circular frame 2, so that the beverage pieces at the bottom gradually fall into the beverage piece placement port 3. At the same time, the beverage pieces that have not entered the beverage piece placement port 3 move closer to the cylinder 5 along the inner arc surface of the arc scraper 6.

[0025] By alternating between counterclockwise and clockwise rotation of the arc-shaped scraper 6, the medicinal slices move inward and outward while rotating, thereby ensuring that the medicinal slices are evenly and fully distributed in several medicinal slice placement openings 3.

[0026] The inside of the herbal medicine placement port 3 is provided with a pop-out component 7, which is used to push out the herbal medicine pieces inside the herbal medicine placement port 3.

[0027] A gantry frame 8 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1, and a detection lens 9 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the top plate of the gantry frame 8.

[0028] After the medicinal slices are spread out into several medicinal slice placement slots 3, the detection lens 9 takes pictures of the medicinal slices in several medicinal slice placement slots 3 so that the pictures can be observed and analyzed later to determine whether there is mold or other defects on the surface of the medicinal slices and whether the quality of the medicinal slices meets the requirements. After taking pictures, the medicinal slices in the medicinal slice placement slots 3 are pushed out by the pop-out component 7, so that the quality-inspected medicinal slices can be scooped up and unloaded. How to observe and analyze the pictures is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] Specifically, the drive assembly 4 includes a mounting plate 41 fixedly installed inside the base 1. A motor 42 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting plate 41. The output shaft of the motor 42 passes through the mounting plate 41 and is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 43 located above the mounting plate 41. The upper end of the rotating shaft 43 passes through and is rotatably connected to the base 1. The upper end of the rotating shaft 43 is fixedly installed inside the cylinder 5 by fasteners. Preferably, the motor 42 is a forward and reverse rotating motor. The motor 42 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 41 by fasteners. The output shaft of the motor 42 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 43 by a coupling. A bearing is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 43, and the outer wall of the bearing is fixedly connected to the base 1. The front and rear ends of the mounting plate 41 are fixedly connected to the base 1. The outer wall of the cylinder 5 is provided with a threaded hole, and a screw is threaded into the threaded hole. The outer wall of the rotating shaft 43 is provided with a positioning hole, and the inner end of the screw is inserted into the positioning hole. The rotating shaft 43 is driven to rotate by the motor 42, and the rotating shaft 43 drives the cylinder 5 to rotate.

[0030] Furthermore, the pop-out component 7 includes a lifting plate 72 that is lifted and installed in the base 1 via a lifting component 71. A plurality of top columns 73 are fixedly installed on the upper end of the lifting plate 72. The upper ends of the plurality of top columns 73 penetrate the base 1 and are respectively inserted into a plurality of beverage slice placement openings 3. The lifting component 71 drives the lifting plate 72 to rise and fall, thereby driving the plurality of top columns 73 to rise, so that the upper end surface of the top column 73, which was originally aligned with the bottom of the beverage slice placement opening, rises to a height that is flush with the upper end surface of the base 1, thereby pushing the beverage slice out of the beverage slice placement opening.

[0031] Furthermore, the lifting assembly 71 includes a pair of guide tubes 711 and a driving component 712 fixedly installed in the base 1. Guide columns 713 are inserted into the inside of the pair of guide tubes 711. The upper ends of the pair of guide columns 713 are fixedly connected to the lifting plate 72. The output shaft of the driving component 712 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 72. Preferably, the driving component 712 is a cylinder.

[0032] The lifting plate 72 is guided by the guide tube 711 and the guide column 713, so that the lifting plate 72 can only be raised and lowered but not rotated. The lifting plate 72 is raised and lowered by the extension and retraction of the output shaft of the cylinder, which is the driving component 712.

[0033] It should be noted that an arc-shaped silicone head 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the arc-shaped scraper 6, and the bottom of the arc-shaped silicone head 10 is slidably connected to the upper end face of the base 1. The arc-shaped silicone head 10 pushes the beverage slice to move, and at the same time, one end of the beverage slice enters the beverage slice placement port while the other end is located on the base 1. When the beverage slice gets stuck, the bottom of the arc-shaped silicone head 10 deforms upward and indents, sliding over the stuck beverage slice, thus preventing the arc-shaped scraper 6 from damaging the stuck beverage slice when it rotates.

[0034] In some embodiments, a pair of lighting lamps 11 located on both sides are fixedly installed on the bottom of the top plate of the gantry frame 8. The lighting direction of the pair of lighting lamps 11 is towards several food slice placement openings 3. Preferably, the lighting lamps 11 are LED lamps. The lighting lamps 11 illuminate the food slices, making the food slice photos taken by the detection lens 9 brighter and clearer.

[0035] Working method: During operation, after pouring a number of medicinal slices into the circular frame 2, the motor 42 is started to drive the cylinder 5 and the arc-shaped scraper 6 to rotate, pushing the pile of medicinal slices to move around the circumference of the cylinder 5 while moving back and forth inwards, thereby spreading the medicinal slices into the medicinal slice placement opening 3. Then, the medicinal slices are photographed through the detection lens to determine whether there are quality problems such as mold on the medicinal slices, so as to carry out quality inspection.

[0036] 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.
