Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing technology, and in particular to an integrated equipment for cleaning and drying traditional Chinese medicine. Background Technology

[0002] Before being used, Chinese medicinal herbs need to undergo specific processing, including washing, drying, peeling, slicing, or powdering. The washing and drying processes are particularly important. For washing Chinese medicinal herbs, a washing machine is required. The washing machine includes a water spraying mechanism and a soaking mechanism, as well as a transport mechanism for the Chinese medicinal herbs, thus realizing two cleaning methods: soaking and rinsing. After washing, the Chinese medicinal herbs also need to be dried to improve their preservation effect.

[0003] Currently, after rinsing, Chinese medicinal herbs are generally dried naturally or using a fan. This method is relatively slow, and because the herbs cannot be actively turned over, the drying effect of the fan or natural air drying is not good. Therefore, in order to improve the drying efficiency of Chinese medicinal herbs, an integrated equipment for washing and drying Chinese medicinal herbs has been designed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address this problem, this application provides an integrated equipment for cleaning and drying Chinese medicinal herbs.

[0005] The integrated washing and drying equipment for Chinese medicinal materials provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: An integrated washing and drying equipment for Chinese medicinal materials includes an integrated box. One side of the integrated box is a washing chamber, and the other side is a drying chamber. A through groove is opened between the washing chamber and the drying chamber. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the bottom of the drying chamber. An installation rod is inserted into the upper end of the rotating rod. A support plate with several holes on its surface is fixedly connected to the lower end of the installation rod. A limiting ring is also fixedly connected to the upper end of the support plate. A fixing plate is rotatably connected to the upper end of the installation rod. A hot air fan is installed on the fixing plate. The drive assembly is fixedly installed at the lower end of the integrated box and is used to drive the mounting rod and rotating rod to rotate, thereby accelerating the drying process of Chinese medicinal materials.

[0006] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a first gear, a rotating rod fixedly connected to the upper end of the first gear, a half gear that can mesh with the first gear on one side, a stepper motor fixedly connected to the middle of the lower end of the half gear, and the stepper motor fixedly installed at the lower end of the integrated box.

[0007] Preferably, a torsion spring is fixedly connected to the upper end of the first gear, and the upper end of the torsion spring is fixedly connected to the lower end wall of the integrated box.

[0008] Preferably, two cleaning pipes are fixedly installed inside the cleaning chamber, the two cleaning pipes are distributed vertically, and a feeding plate is fixedly installed at the lower end of each cleaning pipe, and the feeding plate has mesh holes.

[0009] Preferably, a collection box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning chamber, and a filter screen is fixedly installed on the collection box.

[0010] Preferably, a conveying pipe is fixedly connected to one side of the collection box, and a cleaning pipe is fixedly connected to the upper end of the conveying pipe.

[0011] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects: In this invention, by using a rotatable support plate, a limiting ring, and a hot air blower, the Chinese medicinal materials can be rotated by the support plate while being dried by the hot air blower. This allows the materials piled on one side to be dispersed for easier drying. Furthermore, as the support plate rotates the materials, it also causes them to move continuously, generating centrifugal force to shake off the clean water from the materials, thus facilitating drying and improving drying efficiency.

[0014] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0015] This application discloses an integrated device for washing and drying Chinese medicinal herbs. (Refer to...) Figure 1-4A Chinese herbal medicine washing and drying integrated equipment includes an integrated box 1, with a washing chamber on one side and a drying chamber on the other side. A through groove is provided between the washing chamber and the drying chamber. A rotating rod 2 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the drying chamber. An installation rod 3 is inserted into the upper end of the rotating rod 2. A support plate 4 with several holes on its surface is fixedly connected to the lower end of the installation rod 3. A limiting ring 5 is also fixedly connected to the upper end of the support plate 4. A fixing plate 6 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the installation rod 3. A hot air blower 7 is installed on the fixing plate 6. The hot air blower 7 can dry the Chinese herbal medicines that enter the support plate 4. The drive assembly is fixedly installed at the lower end of the integrated box 1 and is used to drive the mounting rod 3 and the rotating rod 2 to rotate, thereby accelerating the drying process of Chinese medicinal materials. Specifically, the drive assembly includes a first gear 8, the upper end of which is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 2. A half gear 10 that can mesh with the first gear 8 is provided on one side. A stepper motor 11 is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower end of the half gear 10. The stepper motor 11 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the integrated box 1.

[0016] Stepper motor 11 drives half gear 10 to rotate, half gear 10 drives first gear 8 to rotate, which in turn drives upper rotating rod 2 and mounting rod 3 to rotate. Mounting rod 3 drives support plate 4 to rotate, and also drives Chinese medicinal materials to rotate, so that the Chinese medicinal materials piled on one side can rotate and disperse for drying.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper end of the first gear 8 is fixedly connected to the torsion spring 9, and the upper end of the torsion spring 9 is fixedly connected to the lower end wall of the integrated box 1. The torsion spring 9 is used to drive the first gear 8 to separate from the half gear 10 and then return to its original state, so that the upper support plate 4 rotates intermittently clockwise and counterclockwise, thereby driving the clustered Chinese medicinal materials to disperse, so as to facilitate the drying of the Chinese medicinal materials.

[0018] Two cleaning pipes 12 are fixedly installed inside the cleaning chamber, and the two cleaning pipes 12 are distributed vertically, as follows: Figure 2 As shown, each cleaning pipe 12 has a discharge plate 15 fixedly installed at its lower end. The discharge plate 15 has mesh holes for discharging cleaning water.

[0019] A collection box 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning chamber to collect mud and water, thus saving water resources. A filter screen is fixedly installed on the collection box 14 to filter impurities in the mud and water. A conveying pipe 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the collection box 14, and a cleaning pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the conveying pipe 13. The filtered water can be conveyed to the cleaning pipe 12 for recycling, thus saving water resources.

[0020] The implementation principle of the integrated washing and drying equipment for Chinese medicinal materials in this application embodiment is as follows: The Chinese medicinal materials to be washed are put into the washing chamber from the top and roll down along the two feed plates 15. During the rolling and dropping, the washing pipe 12 continuously sprays clean water to wash the Chinese medicinal materials, washing away the residual impurities and dirt. The washed water falls into the lower collection box 14 and is filtered by the filter screen, so that the clean water can be recycled several times, saving a certain amount of water resources. After washing, the Chinese medicinal materials enter the support plate 4 along the lower feed plate 15 and the through groove. Then, the hot air fan 7 is started to blow the water into the support plate 4. The Chinese medicinal herbs are dried, and the stepper motor 11 is started at the same time. The stepper motor 11 drives the half gear 10 to rotate, which in turn drives the first gear 8 to rotate. The first gear 8 drives the upper rotating rod 2 and the mounting rod 3 to rotate. The mounting rod 3 drives the support plate 4 to rotate, and also drives the Chinese medicinal herbs to rotate. This rotation disperses the Chinese medicinal herbs piled on one side to facilitate drying. At the same time, the intermittent rotation also generates a certain centrifugal force, which shakes off the residual cleaning water on the Chinese medicinal herbs, thereby accelerating the drying process. After drying, the mounting rod 3 is pulled from the top to remove the support plate 4 and the Chinese medicinal herbs.
