Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medicinal material drying technology, and more specifically, it relates to an outdoor medicinal material drying device. Background Technology
[0002] When processing medicinal herbs, the herbs that have been washed or steamed need to be cut into small pieces and then dried in the sun before further processing. Generally, a tray is used to place the herbs. The herbs are poured into the tray and spread out using a sweeping tool for drying. After drying, the herbs are collected and stored.
[0003] Based on the above, the currently used drying devices mainly rely on manual operation to distribute medicinal materials, which is inconvenient for evenly distributing the materials, lacks the function of even distribution, results in uneven drying, and lacks the function of regulating airflow, making it inconvenient to control the flow direction and flow rate to achieve controllable air drying. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an outdoor medicinal herb drying device. This addresses the issues raised in the background section regarding existing drying devices, which primarily rely on manual operation to distribute medicinal herbs, making it inconvenient to evenly arrange and distribute the herbs, lacking a uniform distribution function, resulting in uneven drying, and lacking the function to regulate airflow, making it difficult to control the flow direction and speed for controlled air drying.
[0005] The purpose and efficacy of this utility model's outdoor medicinal herb drying device are achieved through the following specific technical means:
[0006] An outdoor medicinal herb drying device includes a storage rack with three rows of auxiliary rollers rotatably arranged in the middle; a top track fixedly installed on the top of the storage rack, with T-shaped wheels rotatably installed on the inner walls of both sides of the top track; two sets of upright plates fixedly installed on the top rear side of the top track, with a feeding hopper fixedly installed on the top of the upright plates, and a distribution channel integrally provided at the bottom of the feeding hopper, the distribution channel having an outwardly protruding arc structure in the middle, and side baffles fixedly installed on both sides of the distribution channel; a distribution impeller rotatably arranged between the two sets of side baffles, the distribution impeller fitting into the middle of the distribution channel; and a drying tray fitted between the two T-shaped wheels.
[0007] Furthermore, a driven gear is fixedly provided at one end of the shaft of the distribution impeller.
[0008] Furthermore, a linkage gear is rotatably provided between the side baffle and the vertical plate, and the linkage gear meshes with the driven gear.
[0009] Furthermore, a side rack is fixedly provided on one side of the drying tray, and the side rack can mesh with the linkage gear.
[0010] Furthermore, both sides of the bottom of the drying tray have protruding structures; handles are fixedly installed at the front and rear ends of the drying tray.
[0011] Furthermore, a flow-limiting frame is fixedly installed on the front side of the storage rack and the top track. Airflow louvers are rotatably installed in the flow-limiting frame, and the sides of the airflow louvers can contact each other. A driven worm gear is fixedly installed at the top of the rotating shaft of each airflow louver. A control worm is rotatably installed on the top of the flow-limiting frame, and the control worm is connected to the driven worm gear. A rocker arm is installed at one end of the control worm.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] This invention uses a distribution impeller to transport medicinal materials, which can distribute them evenly. The drying tray is pushed backward, and the side rack drives the linkage gear to rotate. The linkage gear drives the driven gear to rotate, and the driven gear drives the distribution impeller to rotate. The rotation speed of the distribution impeller is directly proportional to the moving speed of the drying tray. The distribution impeller then transports the medicinal materials downward and evenly into the drying tray, resulting in a good automatic distribution effect.
[0014] The auxiliary rotating rollers can be set up to dry multiple drying trays at the same time; the drying trays can be placed directly above each row of auxiliary rotating rollers for display and drying; in addition, the rear end of the drying tray can be extended backward and a counterweight can be set on the front side of the inside of the drying tray to maintain the stability of the drying tray, so that the drying tray can also be dried individually.
[0015] A flow-limiting frame can control the airflow direction and speed. Rotating the control worm gear drives the driven worm wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the airflow louvers to rotate. This allows adjustment of the louver angle and self-locking, thereby controlling the airflow. It can use wind power to dry the air or block the airflow to prevent it from being blown away. The worm gear transmission can self-lock to maintain the angle of the airflow louvers. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
[0024] Example 1:
[0025] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 As shown:
[0026] This utility model provides an outdoor medicinal herb drying device, including a storage rack 1, with three rows of auxiliary rollers 101 rotatably arranged in the middle of the storage rack 1; a top track 2 is fixedly arranged on the top of the storage rack 1, and T-shaped wheels 201 are rotatably arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the top track 2; two sets of upright plates 3 are fixedly arranged on the top rear side of the top track 2, and a feeding hopper 4 is fixedly arranged on the top of the upright plate 3. A distribution channel 401 is integrally arranged at the bottom of the feeding hopper 4. The distribution channel 401 has an outwardly protruding arc structure in the middle, and side baffles 5 are fixedly arranged on both sides of the distribution channel 401; a distribution impeller 6 is rotatably arranged between the two sets of side baffles 5, and the distribution impeller 6 is fitted in the middle of the distribution channel 401; and a drying tray 9 is fitted between the two T-shaped wheels 201.
[0027] Among them, a driven gear 7 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft of the distribution impeller 6.
[0028] Among them, a linkage gear 8 is rotatably arranged between the side baffle 5 and the vertical plate 3, and the linkage gear 8 meshes with the driven gear 7.
[0029] Among them, a side rack 901 is fixedly installed on one side of the drying tray 9, and the side rack 901 can mesh with the linkage gear 8.
[0030] The bottom of both sides of the drying tray 9 has a protruding structure; handles are fixedly installed at the front and rear ends of the drying tray 9.
[0031] Among them, a flow-limiting frame 10 is fixedly installed on the front side of the storage rack 1 and the top track 2. An airflow louver 1001 is rotatably installed in the flow-limiting frame 10, and the sides of the airflow louver 1001 can contact each other. A driven worm gear 1002 is fixedly installed at the top of the rotating shaft of the airflow louver 1001. A control worm 1003 is rotatably installed on the top of the flow-limiting frame 10, and the control worm 1003 is connected to the driven worm gear 1002 in a transmission connection. A rocker arm is installed at one end of the control worm 1003.
[0032] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the medicinal materials are simply dehydrated and poured into the feeding hopper 4; the drying tray 9 is placed in the T-shaped wheel 201, and the drying tray 9 is pushed backward. The side rack 901 drives the linkage gear 8 to rotate, the linkage gear 8 drives the driven gear 7 to rotate, and the driven gear 7 drives the distribution impeller 6 to rotate. The rotation speed of the distribution impeller 6 is directly proportional to the moving speed of the drying tray 9, and then the distribution impeller 6 is used to convey the medicinal materials downward and evenly distribute them into the drying tray 9.
[0033] Then, use the handle to pull out the drying tray 9 from the back and place it above each row of auxiliary rotating rollers 101 for display and drying.
[0034] Alternatively, the rear end of the drying tray 9 can be extended backward, and a counterweight can be set on the front side of the inside of the drying tray 9 to maintain the stability of the drying tray 9, so that the drying tray 9 can also be used for drying.
[0035] Example 2:
[0036] Based on Example 1, the flow-limiting frame 10 can be selectively installed as needed; after installation, rotating the control worm gear 1003 drives the driven worm wheel 1002 to rotate, and the driven worm wheel 1002 drives the airflow louver 1001 to rotate, which can adjust the angle of the airflow louver 1001 and perform self-locking, thereby controlling the airflow, using wind power to dry or block the airflow to prevent it from being blown away by the wind, and the worm gear transmission can self-lock to maintain the angle of the airflow louver 1001.
[0037] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:
[0038] In this utility model, when using the medicinal materials, cut them into pieces, wash or steam them. At this time, the medicinal materials retain moisture. After simply dehydrating the medicinal materials, pour them into the feeding hopper 4.
[0039] Place the drying tray 9 in the T-shaped wheel 201 and push the drying tray 9 backward. The side rack 901 drives the linkage gear 8 to rotate, the linkage gear 8 drives the driven gear 7 to rotate, and the driven gear 7 drives the distribution impeller 6 to rotate. The rotation speed of the distribution impeller 6 is directly proportional to the moving speed of the drying tray 9. The distribution impeller 6 then conveys the medicinal materials downward and evenly distributes them into the drying tray 9.
[0040] Pull out the drying tray 9 from the rear and place it above each row of auxiliary rotating rollers 101 for display and drying; alternatively, extend the rear end of the drying tray 9 backward and set a counterweight inside the front of the drying tray 9 to maintain the stability of the drying tray 9, so that the drying tray 9 can also be dried individually.
[0041] The rotation of the control worm gear 1003 drives the driven worm wheel 1002 to rotate, which in turn drives the airflow louver 1001 to rotate. This allows the angle of the airflow louver 1001 to be adjusted and self-locked, thereby controlling the airflow. This allows the use of wind power for drying or blocking the airflow to prevent it from being blown away. The worm gear transmission enables self-locking to maintain the angle of the airflow louver 1001.
