Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of artemisia processing technology, specifically relating to an artemisia drying folding rack. Background Technology
[0002] Artemisia argyi is a perennial herb belonging to the genus Artemisia in the family Asteraceae. It is widely distributed in East Asia and is an important element of traditional Chinese medicine and folk culture. Its stems and leaves contain volatile oils, flavonoids, and other components, and have the effects of warming the meridians and dispelling cold, removing dampness and relieving itching. It is often used in moxibustion, insect repellent, and festival customs.
[0003] In the processing of mugwort, the first step is to wash the harvested mugwort to remove surface dirt and impurities. The washed mugwort is then dried to remove moisture, facilitating subsequent processing and storage. However, currently, most drying racks used for drying mugwort are fixed, non-detachable structures. After use, the racks cannot be disassembled, folded, or moved for storage, limiting their use and making them inconvenient and practical – a problem that needs to be addressed. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a folding rack for drying mugwort, which can realize convenient assembly and disassembly between the material trough and the support, and the two supports can be moved and folded, so as to solve the above problems.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a folding rack for drying mugwort, comprising a material trough and a square frame support at the left and right ends of the bottom of the material trough. The top of the material trough is open, and positioning blocks are fixedly provided at both ends of the bottom. Two limiting blind grooves, spaced vertically apart, are provided on the lower parts of the front and rear sides of each positioning block. A positioning through groove is provided on the upper frame of the support corresponding to the positioning block. Guide plates are fixedly provided on the bottom of the upper frame of the support on both the front and rear sides of the positioning through groove. Guide through grooves are provided at both the upper and lower ends of each guide plate, and a rotatable connection is provided on the side of the middle furthest from the positioning through groove. The device includes a lead screw with a rotating handle fixedly connected to the end of the lead screw away from the guide plate. A movable plate is threaded onto the lead screw, and horizontal plates are fixedly connected to both the upper and lower ends of the movable plate. The two horizontal plates correspond one-to-one with the two guide slots on the same side of the guide plate and are inserted through them. The left and right ends of the bottom of the material trough abut against the top of the upper frame of the corresponding bracket. The positioning block is inserted through the positioning slot. The horizontal plates correspond one-to-one with the limiting blind slots on the same side and are inserted through them. The front frames of the two brackets and the rear frames of the two brackets are connected by a scissor folding mechanism. Casters are installed on the front and rear sides of the bottom of the lower frame of the two brackets.
[0006] Preferably, the positioning block is adapted to the corresponding positioning through slot.
[0007] Preferably, the horizontal plate is adapted to the corresponding guide groove and limiting blind groove.
[0008] Preferably, the scissor folding mechanism includes several folding units, each of which consists of two folding arms that cross each other and are hinged together at the intersection point. The intersection point of the folding unit closest to the support is hinged to the corresponding side of the support, and the ends of the folding arms of adjacent folding units are hinged together in sequence.
[0009] Preferably, the material trough is provided with a material rack, which is an inverted V-shaped structure formed by two inclined plates. The bottom end of the inclined plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the material trough, and the top end is fixedly connected to the top end of another inclined plate. Each inclined plate is formed by several arc-shaped plates and several flat plates connected in an alternating manner. Several through holes are provided on the arc-shaped plates and flat plates.
[0010] Preferably, the caster is a brake-type swivel caster.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When drying is required, the casters can be used to quickly move the bracket to a suitable position. Then, the two brackets are moved back to back, and with the cooperation of the scissor folding mechanism, the two brackets can be separated and unfolded until the distance between the two brackets matches the length of the material trough. Next, the material trough is placed on the two brackets, and the positioning block is aligned with the corresponding positioning slot and inserted into place, thus achieving the initial positioning and installation of the material trough. Afterwards, by rotating the screw through the handle, under the threaded connection between the screw and the moving plate and the guiding action of the guide plate on the horizontal plate, the rotational movement of the screw can be converted into the overall movement of the moving plate and the corresponding horizontal plate, causing the horizontal plate to move towards the positioning block until the horizontal plate is inserted into the corresponding limit blind slot, and the positioning block is inserted and fixed, thus completing the further locking and installation of the material trough. Finally, the mugwort is spread on the material trough for drying. When the material is no longer needed after drying, first reverse the screw by turning the handle to disengage the horizontal plate from the corresponding limit slot, thus releasing the locking of the positioning block. Then move the material trough upwards until the positioning block is pulled out of the corresponding positioning slot. The material trough can then be detached from the bracket for separate storage. Next, move the two material racks relative to each other, and with the help of the scissor folding mechanism, the two brackets can be folded together. Finally, use the casters to move it to a suitable position for storage. This allows for convenient assembly and disassembly of the material trough and the bracket, as well as the mobility and folding of the two brackets. It can accommodate material troughs of various lengths, making it more convenient for drying mugwort, as well as for disassembling, moving, folding, and storing it after drying. Overall, it is more flexible, convenient, and practical to use. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0014] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a folding rack for drying mugwort includes a material trough 1 and a square frame bracket 2 located at the left and right ends of the bottom of the material trough 1. The top of the material trough 1 is open, and positioning blocks 3 are fixed on both the left and right ends of the bottom. Two limiting blind grooves 4 are provided on the lower part of the front and rear sides of the positioning blocks 3, which are distributed vertically and vertically. A positioning through groove 5 is provided on the upper frame of the bracket 2 corresponding to the positioning block 3. Guide plates 6 are fixed on the bottom of the upper frame of the bracket 2 on both the front and rear sides of the positioning through groove 5. Guide through grooves 7 are provided on both the upper and lower ends of the guide plates 6. A screw rod 8 is rotatably connected to the side of the middle away from the positioning through groove 5. A rotating handle 9 is fixedly connected to the end of the screw rod 8 away from the guide plate 6. A moving plate 10 is threaded onto the screw rod 8. Horizontal plates 11 are fixedly connected to both the upper and lower ends of the moving plate 10. The two horizontal plates 11 correspond one-to-one with the two guide through grooves 7 on the guide plate 6 on the same side and are inserted through each other. The bottom left and right ends of the material trough 1 abut against the top of the upper frame of the corresponding bracket 2. The positioning block 3 is inserted through the positioning slot 5. The horizontal plate 11 corresponds to the limit blind slot 4 on the same side and is inserted. The front frame of the two brackets 2 and the rear frame of the two brackets 2 are connected by the scissor folding mechanism 12. Casters 13 are installed on the bottom front and rear sides of the lower frame of the two brackets 2. When drying is required, the casters 13 can be used to quickly move the bracket 2 to a suitable position. Then, move the two brackets 2 back to back. With the cooperation of the scissor folding mechanism 12, the two brackets 2 can be separated and unfolded until the distance between the two brackets 2 matches the length of the material trough 1. Next, place the material trough 1 on the two brackets 2 and align the positioning block 3 with the corresponding positioning slot 5 to achieve the initial positioning and installation of the material trough 1. Afterward, rotate the screw 8 by the handle 9. Under the threaded connection between the screw 8 and the moving plate 10 and the guiding action of the guide plate 6 on the horizontal plate 11, the rotation of the screw 8 can be converted into the overall movement of the moving plate 10 and the corresponding horizontal plate 11. This causes the horizontal plate 11 to move towards the positioning block 3 until it is inserted into the corresponding limiting blind slot 4. The positioning block 3 is then inserted and fixed, completing the further locking and installation of the material trough 1. Finally, spread the mugwort on the material trough 1 to dry. When the material is no longer needed after drying, first reverse the screw 8 by turning the handle 9 to disengage the horizontal plate 11 from the corresponding limit blind groove 4, thus releasing the locking of the positioning block 3. Then move the material trough 1 upwards until the positioning block 3 is pulled out from the corresponding positioning through groove 5. The material trough 1 can then be detached from the bracket 2 and stored separately. Next, move the two material racks 2 relative to each other. With the cooperation of the scissor folding mechanism 12, the two brackets 2 can be folded together close to each other. Then, use the casters 13 to move it to a suitable position for storage. In this way, the material trough 1 and the bracket 2 can be easily disassembled and assembled, the two brackets 2 can be moved, and the two brackets 2 can be folded together. It can be adapted to material troughs 1 of various lengths, which is more conducive to the drying and use of mugwort, as well as the disassembly, movement, folding and storage after drying. The overall use is more flexible, convenient and practical.
[0015] In this embodiment, the positioning block 3 is adapted to the corresponding positioning slot 5 to ensure that the positioning block 3 is smoothly inserted into the position and cooperates to realize the positioning and installation of the material trough 1.
[0016] In this embodiment, the horizontal plate 11 is adapted to the corresponding guide groove 7 and the limiting blind groove 4 to ensure that the horizontal plate 11 is smoothly inserted into place and to achieve the locking installation of the material trough 1.
[0017] In this embodiment, the scissor folding mechanism 12 includes several folding units. Each folding unit consists of two folding arms 14 that cross each other and are hinged together at the intersection point. The intersection point of the folding unit close to the support is hinged to the side of the corresponding support 2. The ends of the folding arms 14 of adjacent folding units are hinged together in sequence, so that the two supports 2 can be unfolded far apart or folded close together, which is convenient for use and storage.
[0018] In this embodiment, the material trough 1 is equipped with a material rack 15, which is an inverted V-shaped structure formed by two overlapping inclined plates 16. The bottom end of the inclined plate 16 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the material trough 1, and the top end is fixedly connected to the top end of another inclined plate 16. Each inclined plate 16 is formed by several arc-shaped plates 17 and several flat plates 18 connected in an alternating manner. Several through holes 19 are opened on the arc-shaped plates 17 and flat plates 18, so that the mugwort can be spread on the two inclined plates 16 during actual drying, which can effectively improve the space utilization and accelerate the loss of moisture. At the same time, the inclined plate composed of arc-shaped plates 17 and flat plates 18 makes the bearing surface curved, which can increase the gap between the mugwort and the inclined plate 16. The cooperation with the through holes 19 can further enhance the ventilation effect, thereby making the overall drying effect better, which is more conducive to improving the drying efficiency and quality, and making it more practical.
[0019] In this embodiment, the caster 13 is a conventional brake-type swivel wheel with a braking function, which is convenient for fixing the bracket 2 during drying.
[0020] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
