Detailed Implementation

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a stir-frying machine for preparing traditional Chinese medicine, including a support base 1, a support plate 2 fixedly connected to one end of the top of the support base 1, an electric heating furnace 4 set on the top of the support base 1, a servo motor 5 mounted on the outer wall of the top of the support plate 2 via a fixed frame, a rotating shaft 6 fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 5 via a coupling, a stir-frying pan 7 fixedly connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 6, the stir-frying pan 7 being located directly above the electric heating furnace 4, a hemispherical cover 8 set inside the stir-frying pan 7, the hemispherical cover 8 being rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 6, a sealing plate 9 embedded in the inner bottom of the hemispherical cover 8, a locking screw 12 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sealing plate 9 away from the servo motor 5, the other end of the locking screw 12 moving through the stir-frying pan 7 and threadedly fitted with an internally threaded locking sleeve 13, a limit rod 15 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the hemispherical cover 8, and a matching limit groove 16 opened on the top of the stir-frying pan 7 corresponding to the limit rod 15. A reinforcing rib 3 is provided between the support base 1 and the support plate 2, and the reinforcing rib 3 is fixedly connected to the support base 1 and the support plate 2. The setting of the reinforcing rib 3 can effectively strengthen the connection between the support base 1 and the support plate 2. The servo motor 5 is electrically connected to an external power supply through a PLC controller. The TB6600 PLC controller can effectively control the speed and direction of the servo motor 5, which can effectively ensure that the device can drive normally. The top of the hemispherical cover 8 is rotatably inserted with a locking bolt 10. An internal threaded fixing sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the plate wall of the sealing plate 9. The locking bolt 10 passes through the hemispherical cover 8 and is threaded into the internal threaded fixing sleeve 11. The hemispherical cover 8 and the sealing plate 9 can be easily connected by the locking bolt 10 and the internal threaded fixing sleeve 11. The end of the internal threaded locking sleeve 13 is fixedly sleeved with a toggle block 14. The setting of the toggle block 14 can effectively make the internal threaded locking sleeve 13 more convenient to rotate.

[0018] Specifically, when using this utility model, in the initial state, the internal threaded locking sleeve 13 is loosened by the actuating block 14, thereby releasing the lock between the hemispherical buckle plate 8 and the stir-fry pan 7. Then, the hemispherical buckle plate 8, together with the sealing plate 9, is rotated at a certain angle, so that there is a certain gap between the hemispherical buckle plate 8 and the stir-fry pan 7 to facilitate the placement of Chinese medicinal materials into the interior of the stir-fry pan 7. After the materials are added, the hemispherical buckle plate 8 is rotated as shown in the attached figure. Figure 1As shown in the figure, the limiting rod 15 is located inside the limiting groove 16 and abuts against the hemispherical buckle plate 8 to avoid gaps between the hemispherical buckle plate 8 and the stir-fry pan 7. Then, the angle between the hemispherical buckle plate 8 and the stir-fry pan 7 is locked by turning the internal thread locking sleeve 13. When frying herbs, the electric heating furnace 4 will be turned on to heat the frying pan 7. When it is necessary to turn the herbs over, the servo motor 5 will be turned on. The output of the servo motor 5 can drive the rotating shaft 6 to rotate clockwise. The rotating shaft 6 will drive the frying pan 7 to rotate clockwise. At this time, when the hemispherical buckle plate 8 rotates clockwise, it will be driven to rotate synchronously through the abutment of the limit rod 15. At this time, the frying pan 7 will drive the herbs inside to turn over. And the sealing plate 9 on the hemispherical buckle plate 8 can effectively prevent the herbs from falling during the turning process. After the stir-frying of the herbs is completed, the speed of the servo motor 5 is slowly reduced until it stops. After it stops rotating, the stir-frying pan 7 moves as if attached by gravity. Figure 1 In the state shown, loosening the internal thread locking sleeve 13 unlocks the hemispherical buckle plate 8. As the hemispherical buckle plate 8 drives the sealing plate 9 to rotate, the Chinese medicinal materials inside the stir-fry pan 7 can be pushed out, achieving non-contact discharge. Furthermore, the hemispherical buckle plate 8, which is adapted to the inner circular wall of the stir-fry pan 7, can scrape off the Chinese medicinal materials adhering to the inner wall of the stir-fry pan 7, avoiding the residue of Chinese medicinal materials. In addition, the remaining Chinese medicinal materials inside the stir-fry pan 7 can be completely placed on the sealing plate 9 as the hemispherical buckle plate 8 rotates.

[0019] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
