[0015] In use: The main body of the Chinese herbal medicine cleaning machine consists of a cleaning tank, a conveyor belt, a circulating water pump, a spray pipe, and a water storage tank 2. During cleaning, the raw materials of Chinese herbs are placed on the conveyor belt and enter the cleaning tank with the belt. The circulating water pump draws clean water from the water storage tank 2 and forms a high-pressure water flow through the spray pipe to spray and rinse the raw materials. At the same time, the water in the tank of the cleaning machine body 1 is discharged through the drain outlet 3 and filtered through the filter box 6 before being reintroduced into the water storage tank 2 for recycling. With the help of the water flow impact and the conveyor belt, the machine can efficiently clean the mud and impurities on the surface of the raw materials of Chinese herbs, ensuring the cleaning effect while saving water resources.
[0016] Preferably, the limiting frame 7 is a U-shaped integrated structure, and the shape and size of the rectangular groove on its inner wall are adapted to the coarse filter screen 8, the fine filter screen 10 and the fine filter screen 11. The three sets of limiting frames 7 are symmetrically distributed at equal intervals on the inner wall of the filter box 6.
[0017] In actual use, the coarse filter 8, fine filter 10 and fine filter 11 in the inserted limiting frame 7 are pulled out in sequence for replacement and cleaning. At the same time, sealing strips are glued to the surfaces where the limiting frame 7 and the coarse filter 8, the fine filter 10 and the fine filter 11 intersect to ensure the sealing effect between them.
[0018] Preferably, the water purification pipe 13 is provided with a threaded structure, the shape and size of which are adapted to the threaded groove of the ball valve 12 mounting port.
[0019] In practical use, the threaded structure on the surface of the water purification pipe 13 makes it easy to connect to the mounting port on one side of the ball valve 12, thus facilitating the disassembly and reassembly of the ball valve 12 and the water purification pipe 13. At the same time, a sealing structure such as a sealing ring is connected at the connection between the two.
[0020] Preferably, a rectangular groove is provided on the top of the fixing box 14, the shape and size of which are adapted to the side block 15, and threaded grooves are provided at the intersection of the fixing box 14 and the side block 15, the shape and size of which are adapted to the knurled bolt 16.
[0021] In practical use, hold the knurled bolt 16 and unscrew the knurled bolt 16, which is threaded in the groove between the fixed box 14 and the side block 15, so that the side block 15 is disengaged from the fixed box 14.
[0022] Preferably, two sets of fixing boxes 14 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the surface of the filter box 6.
[0023] In actual use, the fixed box 14 connected to both sides of the filter box 6 is used to stabilize and fix the box cover 17 at the top of the filter box 6.
[0024] Preferably, the bottom of the sealing gasket 18 is provided with two rectangular protrusions, the shape and size of which are adapted to the rectangular cavity between the coarse filter 8, the fine filter 10 and the fine filter 11.
[0025] In practical use, the sealing gasket 18 abuts against the top of the limiting frame 7, the coarse filter screen 8, the fine filter screen 10 and the fine filter screen 11, as well as the opening end of the filter box 6, thereby filling the gap at the intersection of the filter box 6 and the box cover 17 and maintaining the sealing of the connection between the two.
[0026] Working principle: When processing Chinese herbal medicine raw materials, the raw materials to be cleaned are placed into the cleaning tank of the cleaning machine body 1. Then, the switch of the cleaning machine body 1 is turned on to start operation. The high-pressure nozzles on the cleaning machine body 1 spray and wash the raw materials conveyed by the conveyor belt. After rinsing, the wastewater generated is discharged through the drain outlet 3. The discharge of wastewater is controlled by the drain valve 4. After the wastewater is discharged through the drain outlet 3, it enters the filter box 6 through the drain valve 4 and the connecting pipe 5. It is then filtered through the coarse filter screen 8, fine filter screen 10 and fine filter screen 11 inserted in sequence in the filter box 6. The coarse filter screen 8 is made of stainless steel. The filter screen 10, with a mesh size of 1-2mm, is used to intercept medicinal herb fragments and large pieces of silt in the wastewater; the fine filter screen 10, made of food-grade nylon mesh with a mesh size of 0.2-0.5mm, is used to remove fine sand particles and fibrous roots; the fine filter screen 11, made of food-grade polypropylene mesh with a mesh size of 50-100μm, is used to filter suspended solids and colloidal impurities; the purified water after filtration through the filter box 6 is returned to the water storage tank 2 through the clean water pipe 13 under the control of the ball valve 12, so that the circulating water pump installed on the surface of the cleaning machine body 1 can control the clean water in the water storage tank 2 to clean the Chinese herbal raw materials in the cleaning machine body 1 through the high-pressure nozzle; After processing is completed, hold the knurled bolt 16 and unscrew the knurled bolt 16 threaded into the groove between the fixed box 14 and the side block 15. Following the above operation, unscrew the knurled bolts 16 at both ends of the box cover 17 in sequence, thereby holding the handle at the top of the box cover 17 and pulling the box cover 17 upwards, causing the side block 15 connected to its bottom to disengage from the fixed box 14. This causes the sealing gasket 18 abutting against the top of the limiting frame 7, coarse filter 8, fine filter 10, and fine filter 11 to detach from their surfaces. Then, pull out the coarse filter inside the limiting frame 7 in sequence. 8. Replace and clean the coarse filter 8, fine filter 10, and fine filter 11. In addition, when installing the new coarse filter 8, fine filter 10, and fine filter 11, the appropriate mesh size of the coarse filter 8, fine filter 10, and fine filter 11 can be selected according to the particle size of the impurities on the surface of the Chinese herbal raw materials that need to be cleaned later. Repeat the above operation and re-insert the coarse filter 8, fine filter 10, and fine filter 11 into the inner wall of the limiting frame 7 in the filter box 6, so as to facilitate the subsequent treatment of the wastewater generated by the Chinese herbal raw materials placed in the washing machine body 1 for cleaning.
