[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely to represent selected embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The specific embodiments are as follows:

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a dripping device for the cutting blade of a traditional Chinese medicine pelleting machine includes a pelleting machine 1 and a cutting section 2. The pelleting machine 1 has a container box 3 on its top, a threaded groove 6 on its front side, a mounting bracket 10 threaded inside the threaded groove 6, a spraying and covering mechanism 4 threaded at the bottom of the mounting bracket 10, a dripping mechanism 5 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the container box 3, and both the spraying and covering mechanism 4 and the dripping mechanism 5 are located above the cutting section 2. A filling pipe 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the container box 3, and the container box 3 is filled with an aqueous ethanol solution. The number of threaded grooves 6 is ten. There are ten threaded slots 6, with each pair of threaded slots 6 forming a group. Each group of threaded slots 6 is equidistantly distributed on the front of the container box 3. The mounting frame 10 is L-shaped and is threadedly connected to the threaded slots 6 and the spraying covering mechanism 4 by bolts. The mounting frame 10 has four holes for mounting bolts, which are threadedly connected to the water pump 40 and the threaded slots 6 through the bolts. There are ten threaded slots 6, with each pair of threaded slots 6 forming a group. The arrangement height of each group is different, which can change the installation height of the mounting frame 10, thereby changing the coverage angle and area of ​​the atomizing nozzle 43, and can be adjusted accordingly as needed.

[0030] In addition, the container box 3 can be fixed to the pellet making machine 1 by means of threaded connection, welding, lap joint, etc. The installation position is flexible and can be adapted to the model of the pellet making machine 1, which is convenient for loading, unloading and replacement.

[0031] The spraying and covering mechanism 4 includes a water pump 40, which is threadedly installed on the bottom of the mounting bracket 10. A water inlet pipe 41 is fixedly connected to the water inlet of the water pump 40, and the other end of the water inlet pipe 41 passes through the container box 3 and extends into the interior of the container box 3. A water supply pipe 42 is fixedly installed on the water outlet of the water pump 40, and an atomizing nozzle 43 is threadedly installed on the end of the water supply pipe 42 away from the water pump 40. The atomizing nozzle 43 is located above the cutting section 2. The dripping mechanism 5 includes a water supply pipe 50, which is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the container box 3. The end of the water supply pipe 50 away from the container box 3 is fixedly installed with… There is a control valve 51, and a dripping pipe 52 is fixedly installed at the end of the control valve 51 away from the water supply pipe 50. A dripping head 53 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the dripping pipe 52. The dripping head 53 is located directly above the cutting section 2. Both the spraying and covering mechanism 4 and the water supply pipe 50 are mechanisms used to transport the water-containing ethanol liquid inside the container tank 3 to the cutting tool of the cutting section 2. The liquid supply methods of the two are slightly different. The control valve 51 can control the opening and closing of the water supply pipe 50, and works with the dripping pipe 52 and the dripping head 53 to continuously drip wet the cutting tool of the cutting section 2. It has the characteristics of smooth liquid delivery and low liquid consumption, and is suitable for long-term automatic production without human supervision.

[0032] It should be noted that the method of drawing water-containing ethanol liquid through water pump 40 and water pipe 41 and then spraying it through water pipe 42 and atomizing nozzle 43 has a larger coverage area and can cover the entire cutting section 2. It is suitable for lubricating the cutting section 2 blades when the pelleting machine 1 is first started, reducing blade wear, improving the smoothness of the pellets and reducing the residual roughness of the pellets. However, compared with the dripping method, the liquid consumption rate is higher and the liquid inside the container tank 3 needs to be replenished regularly.

[0033] The container box 3 has a liquid level observation window 9 on its back. The pellet making machine 1 has a controller panel 8 fixedly installed on its top. The spraying and covering mechanism 4 is electrically connected to the controller panel 8. The container box 3 has a glass liquid level observation window 9 at the center of its back, which serves as a seal and observation window. The staff can observe the amount of water-containing ethanol liquid inside the container box 3 in real time so as to replenish it in time. The controller panel 8 can control the start and stop of the water pump 40 to control the duration and interval of spraying water-containing ethanol liquid.

[0034] Working principle: By installing a spraying and covering mechanism 4 and a dripping mechanism 5 on the container box 3, the water-containing ethanol liquid in the container box 3 is continuously or periodically sprayed onto the blade of the cutting part 2. While lubricating the blade and reducing wear, it can also form an isolation film to effectively prevent the medicine strip from sticking to the blade. This avoids problems such as medicine strip breakage, irregular pill shape or surface burrs caused by adhesion during the cutting process, and ensures that the roundness and smoothness of the pills meet the quality standards.

[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
