Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine production equipment technology, and in particular to a cleaning structure for the outer pot of a decoction pot. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of traditional Chinese medicine, herbs are decocted using a decoction pot. The decoction pot consists of an outer pot, an inner pot housed within the outer pot, and a lid covering the inner pot. The inner pot has an outward-flared rim that covers the upper part of the outer pot, and the lid has pinching protrusions. The decoction pot is designed for reuse; it needs to be cleaned after each use before being used again. Currently, cleaning is done manually, which is labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention aims to provide a cleaning structure for the outer pot of a decoction pot that can perform closed cleaning of the outer pot, so as to replace manual cleaning.

[0004] The specific technical solution of this utility model is: a cleaning structure for the outer pot of a decoction pot, the decoction pot including an outer pot and an inner pot inserted inside the outer pot, characterized in that it includes a frame, the frame being equipped with a cleaning fluid supply system and an outer pot cleaning chamber; the outer pot cleaning chamber is equipped with a cleaning fluid output structure, the outer pot cleaning chamber including an outer pot cleaning chamber body, an outer pot cleaning chamber cover for covering the outer pot cleaning chamber body, and an outer pot cleaning chamber switch structure for driving the opening and closing of the outer pot cleaning chamber cover; the outer pot cleaning chamber cleaning fluid output structure supplies cleaning fluid through the cleaning fluid supply system. In use, the outer pot is placed inside the outer pot cleaning chamber, and cleaning fluid is output through the outer pot cleaning chamber cleaning fluid output structure for cleaning. This achieves closed-loop cleaning of the outer pot, which is environmentally friendly.

[0005] Preferably, the top of the outer pot cleaning cavity is open, forming an upper opening. The upper end of the front sidewall of the outer pot cleaning cavity has a side opening, which communicates with the upper opening. The outer pot cleaning cavity cover includes a top plate covering the upper opening and a side sealing plate covering the side opening. This allows for convenient access when the robotic arm carries the decoction pot from the side.

[0006] Preferably, the outer pot cleaning chamber is provided with a plurality of outer pot cleaning chamber limiting rods, and an outer pot cleaning chamber supporting block for supporting the outer pot is provided on one side of the space enclosed by the outer pot cleaning chamber limiting rods.

The lower end of the outer pot cleaning cavity side plates is provided with an outer pot cleaning cavity outward flange, which is fixed to the outer pot cleaning cavity cavity by the outer pot cleaning cavity limiting rod fixing screw. This design offers good structural strength and reliable connection.

[0009] Preferably, the periphery of the surface where the outer pot cleaning chamber body connects to the outer pot cleaning chamber cover is provided with an outer pot cleaning chamber sealing groove. When the outer pot cleaning chamber cover is placed on the outer pot cleaning chamber body, the periphery of the outer pot cleaning chamber cover passes through the outer pot cleaning chamber sealing groove. This provides good sealing performance when the cover is on and prevents leakage.

[0010] Preferably, the outer pot cleaning chamber switch structure includes an outer pot cleaning chamber horizontal rotating shaft disposed on one side of the outer pot cleaning chamber and an outer pot cleaning chamber switch cover motor that drives the outer pot cleaning chamber horizontal rotating shaft to rotate, and the outer pot cleaning chamber cover is fixed on the outer pot cleaning chamber rotating shaft.

[0011] Preferably, the cleaning fluid output structure of the outer pot cleaning chamber includes a central riser and several edge risers connected to the cleaning fluid supply system. The edge risers are equipped with several nozzles distributed vertically. The edge risers are located at the edges of the outer pot cleaning chamber, with the nozzles opening towards the center of the chamber. The central riser has a first outlet at its top. In use, the outer pot is inverted and fitted onto the central riser, with the edge risers located outside the outer pot.

[0012] Preferably, the first liquid outlet of the outer pot cleaning chamber is a slit structure and there are at least three of them, which are distributed circumferentially along the central riser of the outer pot cleaning chamber. This results in good cleaning effect and high efficiency.

[0013] Preferably, the top of the central upright of the outer pot cleaning chamber is a closed structure, and the first liquid outlet of the outer pot cleaning chamber simultaneously penetrates the top wall and the peripheral wall of the central upright of the outer pot cleaning chamber.

[0014] Compared with the existing technology, the advantages of this utility model are: it can perform closed-loop cleaning of the outer pot; it is labor-saving and environmentally friendly. Attached Figure Description
