The front and rear sides of the slider of the first electric linear module 503 and the right side of the lower surface of the mounting plate 4 are provided with second hinges 504, and the corresponding upper and lower second hinges 504 are connected by the transmission rod 505.
[0028] In this embodiment, the battery 502 provides power to the controller 501 and the first electric linear module 503, causing the slider of the first electric linear module 503 to move the lower second hinge 504 left and right, causing the lower second hinge 504 to move the upper second hinge 504 up and down through the transmission rod 505, and causing the upper second hinge 504 to move the right end of the mounting plate 4 up and down.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the screening mechanism 9 includes a filter screen 901 and a collection tray 902. The filter screen 901 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the drying tray 7 near the middle. The left side of the filter screen 901 is open on the upper side of the left side wall of the drying tray 7.
[0030] In this embodiment, the filter screen 901 is used for placing Chinese herbal medicines for drying. When the filter screen 901 vibrates, impurities in the Chinese herbal medicines fall into the collection tray 902 through the filter screen 901, thereby achieving the effect of separating impurities in the Chinese herbal medicines.
[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the turning mechanism 10 includes a second electric linear module 101, a plow 102, and a rectangular opening 103. The second electric linear module 101 is fixedly installed on the right side of the drying tray 7. The plow 102 is fixedly installed on the right side of the slider of the second electric linear module 101, and the plow 102 is inserted into the upper side of the filter screen plate 901. A rectangular opening 103 is provided on the right side wall of the drying tray 7 corresponding to the plow 102.
[0032] In this embodiment, the slider of the second electric linear module 101 drives the plow 102 to move back and forth on the upper surface of the filter screen 901, thereby turning over the Chinese herbal medicines on the upper surface of the filter screen 901. The rectangular opening 103 meets the needs of the plow 102 to move back and forth.
[0033] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the lower surface of the plow 102 is movably attached to the upper surface of the filter screen 901.
[0034] In this embodiment, the plow 102 moves back and forth stably and can thoroughly turn over the Chinese herbal medicines on the upper surface of the filter screen 901.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the collecting mechanism 11 includes a limiting frame 111 and a collecting frame 112. The limiting frame 111 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base plate 1, and the collecting frame 112 is placed inside the limiting frame 111.
[0036] In this embodiment, the limiting frame 111 is used to place the collection frame 112, and the collection frame 112 is used to collect the Chinese herbal medicines on the upper surface of the filter screen 901, which greatly improves the collection efficiency of the dried Chinese herbal medicines.
[0037] In use, the drying device is moved to the desired location using rollers 2, and the herbs to be dried are placed on the upper surface of the filter screen 901 in the sieving mechanism 9. Based on the angle between the sun and the filter screen 901, the battery 502 in the adjusting mechanism 5 provides power to the controller 501 and the first electric linear module 503, causing the slider of the first electric linear module 503 to move the lower second hinge 504 to the left. This causes the lower second hinge 504 to move the upper second hinge 504 downwards via the transmission rod 505, which in turn causes the right end of the mounting plate 4 to move downwards. The left end of the mounting plate 4 rotates along the first hinge 302 in the support mechanism 3, causing the mounting plate 4 to tilt the filter screen 901 in the drying tray 7 via the spring damping shock absorber 6. This allows for drying at multiple angles. During the drying process, the vibration motor 8 drives the drying tray... 7. Vibration: The drying tray 7 causes the Chinese herbal medicines on the upper surface of the filter screen 901 to vibrate, which can separate impurities on the Chinese herbal medicines during the drying process. The shaken-off impurities fall into the collection tray 902 through the filter screen 901. In conjunction with the slider of the second electric linear module 101 in the turning mechanism 10, the plow 102 moves back and forth on the upper surface of the filter screen 901, achieving the effect of turning the Chinese herbal medicines on the upper surface of the filter screen 901. After the Chinese herbal medicines are dried, the adjusting mechanism 5 is reset, and the adjusting mechanism 5 moves the right end of the mounting plate 4 upward along the support mechanism 3. At this time, the mounting plate 4 drives the drying tray 7 to tilt to the left through the spring damping shock absorber 6, so that the drying tray 7 drives the Chinese herbal medicines on the upper surface of the filter screen 901 to tilt. The Chinese herbal medicines fall into the collection frame 112 of the collection mechanism 11 along the filter screen 901, which is convenient for collecting the Chinese herbal medicines, greatly improving the drying efficiency and making it easy to use.
[0038] In summary, this drying device for Chinese herbal medicines can separate impurities during the drying process, offering more functions and enabling drying from multiple angles for better results. Furthermore, it facilitates the collection of the herbs after drying, greatly improving drying efficiency and making it easy to use.
