Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding device technology, specifically to an automatic feeding and packaging equipment for preventing the sticking of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Background Technology
[0002] After the production of Chinese medicinal herbs is completed, they need to be repackaged. Automated feeding and packaging equipment is the key equipment to improve production efficiency and ensure the consistency of repackaged weight. However, in practical applications, many Chinese medicinal herbs are prone to adhesion, clumping and blockage during the conveying and feeding process due to their own physical characteristics (such as containing sugar, starch or oil, or having a moist surface and fuzz after cutting). Examples include high-sugar and high-viscosity herbs such as Rehmannia glutinosa and Polygonatum sibiricum.
[0003] Currently, common vibratory feeding equipment typically uses a single vibratory motor to drive the feed trough, utilizing the vibration effect to move the material forward. However, this type of traditional equipment has significant drawbacks when processing easily sticky Chinese herbal medicine pieces: First, a single vibration mode is often insufficient to effectively break up clumps of medicinal slices. The material tends to adhere to the inner wall of the feeding trough, eventually forming a stubborn sticky layer. This not only wastes material but also affects the uniformity and accuracy of feeding. Secondly, due to increased pressure and narrower channels at the final discharge port, materials are more prone to bridging and blockage, leading to interruptions in material feeding and requiring manual intervention to clear the blockage. This severely disrupts the continuity of automated production and reduces packaging efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings in the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a continuous, stable and non-clogging feeding and packaging equipment for Chinese herbal medicine slices that are prone to sticking, absorbing moisture and clumping.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to achieve the above-mentioned objectives is as follows: an automatic feeding and packaging equipment for preventing the sticking of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, comprising a feeding box, a feeding frame, a guide frame, a first vibrating motor, a second vibrating motor, and an airflow mechanism. The feeding frame is elastically connected inside the feeding box and is inclined at an angle of 1-3°. The first vibrating motor is fixedly connected to the feeding frame and vibrates horizontally. One end of the feeding frame has a discharge port, and the feeding box has a discharge port corresponding to the discharge port. The guide frame is elastically connected to the feeding box corresponding to the discharge port. The second vibrating motor is fixedly connected to the guide frame and vibrates vertically. The airflow mechanism is provided on the feeding box and includes an airflow nozzle, which is fixedly connected to the guide frame.
[0006] In the above technical solution, the top of the feeding box is provided with a feeding port, and a feeding hopper is fixedly connected to the feeding port to facilitate the feeding of Chinese herbal medicine pieces.
[0007] In the above technical solution, the top of the feeding frame is an open structure so that the Chinese herbal medicine pieces can be completely inserted into the feeding frame, and a guide ramp is provided in the feeding frame corresponding to the discharge port, which can guide the Chinese herbal medicine pieces to the discharge port.
[0008] In the above technical solution, an anti-sticking layer is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feeding frame to reduce the adhesion of Chinese herbal medicine pieces. At the same time, multiple sets of flexible scrapers are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the anti-sticking layer. When the feeding frame vibrates, the flexible scrapers can swing to peel off the adhered Chinese herbal medicine pieces. Furthermore, the anti-stick layer is made of polytetrafluoroethylene coating, the flexible scraper is made of silicone strip, and the top end of the flexible scraper is fixedly connected to the anti-stick layer.
[0009] In the above technical solution, the specific installation structure of the feeding box is as follows: Multiple sets of first connecting platforms are fixedly connected inside the feeding box. Each set of first connecting platforms is fixedly connected to a first spring, and the top of the first spring is fixedly connected to the feeding frame.
[0010] In the above technical solution, the specific installation structure of the guide frame is as follows: A second connecting platform is fixedly connected to the feeding box corresponding to the material guide frame. A second spring is fixedly connected to both the second connecting platform and the discharge port. The second spring is fixedly connected to the material guide frame.
[0011] In the above technical solution, the specific structure of the airflow mechanism is as follows: The airflow mechanism also includes an airflow pump, an air filter, and a connecting hose. The airflow pump and the air filter are fixedly connected to the feed box, and the air filter, the airflow pump, and the airflow nozzle are connected in sequence through the connecting hose.
[0012] In the above technical solution, the airflow nozzle is installed as follows: nozzle seats are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the guide frame, and multiple sets of airflow nozzles are fixedly connected to the nozzle seats. The airflow nozzles face the bottom surface of the guide frame, and an airflow channel is provided inside the nozzle seats. The nozzle seats are fixedly connected to the connecting hose.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The feeding frame tilted at 1-3°, in conjunction with the first vibration motor, allows the medicinal slices to be loosened, dispersed, and slowly moved towards the discharge port under the combined action of gravity and horizontal vibration. This effectively avoids large-scale accumulation and jamming in the feeding frame. The second vibration motor, which vibrates vertically, acts on the guide frame to excite the medicinal slices that have entered the final outlet channel in a vertical direction. This can strongly break up "bridging" and blockage phenomena, ensuring that the medicinal slices can flow out continuously, stably, and evenly, thus guaranteeing the continuity and accuracy of packaging and metering. 2. An anti-stick layer (PTFE coating) is installed on the inner wall of the feeding frame. This material has extremely low surface energy and excellent lubricity, which can significantly reduce the adhesion between the beverage slices and the wall surface from the source. In addition, a flexible silicone scraper is installed on the anti-stick layer. When the feeding frame vibrates horizontally, the scraper swings accordingly, which can actively scrape off and peel off the beverage slices that are even stuck to the wall surface, thus achieving dynamic self-cleaning. 3. It also includes an airflow mechanism, which pressurizes air through an airflow pump and sprays it through an airflow nozzle to the guide frame, thereby blowing off the fine medicinal pieces that may adhere to the surface of the guide frame. This further disperses the falling medicinal pieces, preventing them from re-aggregating and sticking together at the outlet. In conjunction with vertical vibration, it completely solves the outlet blockage problem. Attached Figure Description

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] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an automatic feeding and packaging device for preventing sticking of Chinese herbal medicine slices includes a feeding box 100, a feeding frame 200, a guide frame 300, a first vibration motor 201, a second vibration motor 301, and an airflow mechanism. First, the feeding box 100 is elastically connected to the feeding frame 200. Specifically, multiple sets of first connecting platforms 202 are fixedly connected inside the feeding box 100. Each set of first connecting platforms 202 is fixedly connected to a first spring 203. The top of the first spring 203 is fixedly connected to the feeding frame 200. The feeding frame 200 is inclined at an angle of 1-3°. Furthermore, the first vibration motor 201 is fixedly connected to the feeding frame 200. The first vibration motor 201 vibrates horizontally. Furthermore, the top of the feeding box 100 is provided with a feeding port, and in order to facilitate the feeding of Chinese herbal medicine pieces, a feeding hopper 101 is fixedly connected to the feeding port. The top of the feeding frame 200 is an open structure so that the Chinese herbal medicine pieces can be completely entered into the feeding frame 200. One end of the feeding frame 200 is provided with a discharge port 204. At the same time, a guide ramp 205 is provided in the feeding frame 200 corresponding to the discharge port 204. The Chinese herbal medicine pieces can be guided to the discharge port 204 through the guide ramp 205. Furthermore, an anti-stick layer 206 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feeding frame 200. In this embodiment, the anti-stick layer 206 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene coating. This material has extremely low surface energy and excellent lubricity, which can significantly reduce the adhesion between the beverage slices and the wall surface from the source. At the same time, multiple sets of flexible scraper strips 207 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the anti-stick layer 206. In this embodiment, the flexible scraper strips 207 are made of silicone strips. The top end of the flexible scraper strips 207 is fixedly connected to the anti-stick layer 206. In this way, when the feeding frame 200 vibrates, the scraper strips swing accordingly, which can actively scrape off and peel off those beverage slices that are even stuck to the wall surface, realizing dynamic self-cleaning. Secondly, a discharge port 102 is provided on the feeding box 100 corresponding to the discharge port 204, and a guide frame 300 is elastically connected to the feeding box 100 corresponding to the discharge port 102. Specifically, a second connecting platform 302 is fixedly connected to the feeding box 100 corresponding to the guide frame 300. A second spring 303 is fixedly connected to both the second connecting platform 302 and the discharge port 102. The second spring 303 is fixedly connected to the guide frame 300. A second vibration motor 301 is fixedly connected to the guide frame 300. The second vibration motor 301 is vertically vibrating. Chinese medicinal herbs can be added into the feed frame 200 through the feed hopper 101. Then, the first vibration motor 201 can drive the feed frame 200 to vibrate. At this time, the herbs are loosened, dispersed and slowly moved towards the discharge port 204 under the combined action of gravity and horizontal vibration, which can effectively avoid large-scale accumulation and jamming in the feed frame. The vertical vibration of the second vibration motor 301 can act on the guide frame 300, thereby exciting the beverage slices that have entered the final outlet channel in the vertical direction. This can strongly break the "bridging" and blockage phenomenon, ensuring that the beverage slices can flow out continuously, stably and evenly, and guaranteeing the continuity and accuracy of packaging and metering. Finally, the feeding box 100 is also equipped with an airflow mechanism, which includes airflow nozzles 401, an airflow pump 402, an air filter 403, and a connecting hose 404. Specifically, the airflow pump 402 and the air filter 403 are fixedly connected to the feeding box 100. Nozzle seats 405 are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the guide frame 300. The nozzle seats 405 have airflow channels inside, and multiple sets of airflow nozzles 401 are fixedly connected to the nozzle seats 405. The airflow nozzles 401 face the bottom surface of the guide frame 300. 403, air pump 402, and nozzle seat 405 are connected in sequence via connecting hose 404. In this way, the air pump 402 can pressurize and deliver air to the air nozzle 401 to blow off the fine medicinal pieces that may adhere to the surface of the guide frame 300. This can further disperse the falling medicinal pieces and prevent them from re-aggregating and sticking together at the outlet. In conjunction with vertical vibration, it can completely solve the problem of outlet blockage. The air filter 403 can filter the air so that the air nozzle 401 sprays clean air and avoids contamination of the Chinese medicinal pieces.
