Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Polygonatum steaming technology, and in particular to a Polygonatum steaming device. Background Technology
[0002] Polygonatum is a perennial herb used in both medicine and food. It is sweet and neutral in nature, and enters the spleen, lung, and kidney meridians. It has the effects of replenishing qi and nourishing yin, strengthening the spleen and moistening the lungs, and benefiting the kidneys. It is widely used in the fields of traditional Chinese medicine and food processing. Because raw Polygonatum has a certain degree of irritation, direct use in medicine or consumption may cause adverse reactions. Therefore, it is often necessary to steam it. The purpose of steaming Polygonatum is to remove its irritating components, increase the dissolution rate of effective components, and at the same time change the taste and medicinal properties of Polygonatum, making it more suitable for clinical use and daily consumption.
[0003] Currently, the commonly available steaming devices for Polygonatum sibiricum have many shortcomings. On the one hand, most of the existing devices have an externally designed ramp, which occupies extra space when not in use. This not only affects the layout of the work area but may also obstruct the movement of operators, reducing space utilization. On the other hand, the existing trolley and steaming tray connection usually relies solely on sliding friction, lacking an effective limiting structure. During handling or steaming, the steaming tray is prone to sliding, shifting, or even falling, causing Polygonatum sibiricum to spill and affecting the normal operation of the steaming process. In addition, when using sliding friction to push the steaming tray into the trolley, operators need to overcome significant resistance, which undoubtedly increases the labor intensity of workers and reduces work efficiency. This problem is particularly prominent when handling a large number of Polygonatum sibiricum steaming tasks.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new apparatus for steaming Polygonatum to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a steaming device for Polygonatum sibiricum.
[0006] The Polygonatum steaming device provided by this utility model includes: a box body, a trolley inside the box body, slide rails fixedly connected at equal intervals on both sides of the trolley, a steaming tray for holding Polygonatum slidably connected above the slide rails, a limiting component for limiting the position of the steaming tray and the trolley installed at one end of the steaming tray, a door rotatably connected to one side of the box body, a ramp rotatably connected to the bottom of the side of the box body near the door for the trolley to enter the box body, and a rotating component installed at the bottom of the box body for automatically opening and closing the ramp in coordination with the opening and closing of the door.
[0007] Preferably, the limiting component includes: a post, a connecting rod, a spring, a transmission block, a trapezoidal push block, a handle, and a U-shaped slider. Posts are slidably connected to both ends of the steaming tray, and the posts are inserted into the trolley. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to one end of each of the two posts facing each other. A spring is fitted onto the outer wall of one end of each of the two connecting rods facing away from each other. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the post, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steaming tray. A transmission block is fixedly connected to one end of each of the two connecting rods facing away from each other. Both transmission blocks are slidably connected to the other connecting rod. A trapezoidal push block is slidably connected inside the steaming tray between the two connecting rods. A handle is fixedly connected to one side of the steaming tray, and a U-shaped slider is slidably connected inside the handle. The U-shaped slider is fixedly connected to the trapezoidal push block.
[0008] Preferably, the rotating assembly includes: a first rotating rod, a first conical wheel, a second rotating rod, and a second conical wheel. The first rotating rod is fixedly connected to the rotating connection between the door and the box body. The first conical wheel is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first rotating rod. The second rotating rod is fixedly connected to the rotating connection between the inclined platform and the box body. The second conical wheel is fixedly connected to the end of the second rotating rod near the first rotating rod. The first conical wheel and the second conical wheel are meshed together.
[0009] Preferably, each of the two transmission blocks has an inclined groove at the middle of one of its facing ends that cooperates with the trapezoidal push block, and both transmission blocks are in contact with the trapezoidal push block.
[0010] Preferably, the top of the second rotating rod is level with the top of the inclined plane.
[0011] Preferably, the diameter ratio of the first conical wheel to the second conical wheel is 1:2.
[0012] Preferably, a groove is provided at the bottom of the inner side of the door, and the groove has the same size as the inclined platform.
[0013] Preferably, the top of the slide rail is equidistantly connected to multiple sets of rotating rollers, and the bottom of the steaming tray is evenly provided with multiple sets of through holes for steam circulation.
[0014] Compared with related technologies, the Polygonatum steaming device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] Improve space utilization:
[0016] In terms of space utilization, the linkage between the ramp and the door is achieved through a rotating component. When the door is closed, the ramp can automatically retract into the cabinet, effectively solving the problem of traditional external ramps occupying too much space. This design not only optimizes the layout of the work area, reduces obstacles to the movement of operators, and reduces safety hazards in the workshop, but also greatly improves the space utilization rate, making the work environment cleaner and more orderly, and facilitating the placement of equipment and the operation of personnel.
[0017] Improve the stability of the steaming tray:
[0018] Regarding the stability of the steaming tray and ease of operation, the limiting component greatly improves the stability of the connection between the steaming tray and the trolley. When the steaming tray is pushed into the trolley, the insertion of the column can be achieved by simply squeezing the U-shaped slider, which makes the steaming tray and the trolley precisely positioned. Compared with the traditional connection method that relies solely on sliding friction, this device effectively avoids the steaming tray from sliding, shifting, and falling during transportation or steaming, ensuring the smooth progress of the Huangjing steaming process and reducing losses caused by material spillage.
[0019] Improve work efficiency:
[0020] The rotating rollers at the top of the slide rails transform the sliding friction between the steaming trays and the cart into rolling friction. This significantly reduces the resistance that operators need to overcome when pushing the steaming trays, thus greatly reducing labor intensity and improving work efficiency. The advantages are even more pronounced when handling a large number of Solomon's Seal steaming tasks, effectively saving labor and time costs. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0030] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 7 A device for steaming Polygonatum sibiricum includes: a box body 1, a trolley 2 inside the box body 1, slide rails 3 fixedly connected at equal intervals on both sides of the trolley 2, a steaming tray 4 for holding Polygonatum sibiricum slidably connected above the slide rails 3, a limiting component for limiting the steaming tray 4 and the trolley 2 at one end of the steaming tray 4, a door 5 rotatably connected to one side of the box body 1, a ramp 6 rotatably connected to the bottom of the side of the box body 1 near the door 5 for the trolley 2 to enter the box body 1, a rotating component for driving the ramp 6 to automatically open and close in coordination with the opening and closing of the door 5 at the bottom of the box body 1, multiple sets of rotating rollers 19 rotatably connected at equal intervals on the top of the slide rails 3, and multiple sets of through holes for steam circulation evenly opened on the bottom of the steaming tray 4.
[0032] It should be noted that when the operator pushes the steaming tray 4 into the trolley 2, the friction between the steaming tray 4 and the rotating roller 19 causes the rotating roller 19 to rotate, which greatly reduces the resistance to pushing the steaming tray 4 in.
[0033] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The limiting assembly includes: a pin 7, a connecting rod 8, a spring 9, a transmission block 10, a trapezoidal push block 11, a handle 12, and a U-shaped slider 13. Pins 7 are slidably connected to both ends of the steaming tray 4, and the pins 7 are inserted into the trolley 2. A connecting rod 8 is fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the two pins 7. A spring 9 is fitted onto the outer wall of the opposite ends of the two connecting rods 8. One end of the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the pin 7, and the other end of the spring 9 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the steaming tray 4. The opposite ends of the two connecting rods 8 are respectively fixedly connected to… Each has a transmission block 10, and both transmission blocks 10 are slidably connected to the other connecting rod 8. Inside the steaming tray 4, a trapezoidal push block 11 is slidably connected between the two connecting rods 8. A handle 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the steaming tray 4. A U-shaped slider 13 is slidably connected inside the handle 12. The U-shaped slider 13 is fixedly connected to the trapezoidal push block 11. The middle of the opposite end of each of the two transmission blocks 10 is provided with an inclined groove 18 that cooperates with the trapezoidal push block 11. Both transmission blocks 10 are in contact with the trapezoidal push block 11.
[0034] It should be noted that when the trapezoidal push block 11 approaches the handle 12, the trapezoidal push block 11 will squeeze the two transmission blocks 10 through the inclined groove 18, causing them to move away from each other. The design of the inclined groove 18 increases the contact area between the trapezoidal push block 11 and the transmission block 10, preventing the sharp edges of the transmission block 10 from reducing the service life of the trapezoidal slider.
[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The rotating assembly includes: a first rotating rod 14, a first conical wheel 15, a second rotating rod 16, and a second conical wheel 17. The first rotating rod 14 is fixedly connected to the rotating connection between the door 5 and the box 1. The first conical wheel 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first rotating rod 14. The second rotating rod 16 is fixedly connected to the rotating connection between the inclined platform 6 and the box 1. The second conical wheel 17 is fixedly connected to the end of the second rotating rod 16 near the first rotating rod 14. The first conical wheel 15 and the second conical wheel 17 are meshed together. The horizontal plane at the top of the second rotating rod 16 is flush with the horizontal plane at the top of the inclined platform 6. The diameter ratio of the first conical wheel 15 to the second conical wheel 17 is 1:2. A groove is provided at the bottom of the inner side of the door 5. The groove has the same size as the inclined platform 6.
[0036] It should be noted that the diameter ratio of the first conical wheel 15 and the second conical wheel 17 is 1:2, and the rotation angle of the door 5 is twice the rotation angle of the inclined platform 6.
[0037] The working principle of the Polygonatum steaming device provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0038] The limiting process of steaming tray 4 and trolley 2:
[0039] The operator evenly places the polygonatum to be steamed into the steaming tray 4, and then places the steaming tray 4 above the slide rails 3 on both sides of the trolley 2. At this time, the rotating rollers 19, which are equidistantly connected to the top of the slide rails 3, contact the bottom surface of the steaming tray 4, forming a rolling friction support. When the operator pushes the steaming tray 4 into the trolley 2, the friction between the steaming tray 4 and the rotating rollers 19 causes the rollers 19 to rotate, which greatly reduces the resistance to pushing the steaming tray 4 in, significantly reduces the labor intensity of the workers, and allows the steaming tray 4 to slide easily and smoothly into the trolley 2 along the slide rails 3. Continue pushing the tray 2 into the interior until the insert 7 is close to the side wall of the tray 2. The operator then grips the handle 12 on one side of the steaming tray 4 and squeezes the U-shaped slider 13, which is slidably connected inside the handle 12, to move it towards the handle 12. The U-shaped slider 13 is fixedly connected to the trapezoidal push block 11 inside the steaming tray 4. Therefore, the movement of the U-shaped slider 13 will cause the trapezoidal push block 11 to move closer to the handle 12. Since both transmission blocks 10 are in contact with the trapezoidal push block 11, and the middle of one end of each transmission block 10 has a part that cooperates with the trapezoidal push block 11... During movement, the inclined groove 18 and the trapezoidal pusher 11 will press the two transmission blocks 10 together, causing them to move away from each other. The transmission blocks 10 are fixedly connected to the connecting rod 8, so the movement of the transmission blocks 10 drives the connecting rods 8 to move closer together. The connecting rods 8 are fixed to the inserts 7, which in turn causes the inserts 7 to be moved closer together. During this process, the inserts 7 compress the spring 9 sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 8 and gradually retract into the steaming tray 4. After the steaming tray 4 is completely pushed into the trolley 2, the operator releases the pressure on the U-shaped slider 13. At this time, the... The compressed spring 9 generates a reset motion due to its own elastic potential energy. The elastic force of the spring 9 pushes the insert 7 outward and inserts it into the corresponding insertion hole pre-set on the side wall of the trolley 2. The extension motion of the insert 7 drives the connecting rod 8 and the transmission block 10 connected to it to move in the same direction. During the movement, the transmission block 10 squeezes the trapezoidal push block 11, causing it to return to its initial position. The reset of the trapezoidal push block 11 then drives the U-shaped slider 13 to reset synchronously. Thus, the steaming tray 4 and the trolley 2 are stably limited, ensuring that the steaming tray 4 will not slide or shift during the subsequent steaming process.
[0040] The coordinated movement process of inclined platform 6 and gate 5:
[0041] The operator opens the door 5, which is rotatably connected to one side of the housing 1, and rotates the door 5 180° along the rotation axis of the housing 1. During the rotation of the door 5, the first rotating rod 14, which is fixedly connected to the rotating connection of the door 5, rotates synchronously 180°. The first conical wheel 15, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first rotating rod 14, also rotates 180°. Since the first conical wheel 15 is meshed with the second conical wheel 17, and the diameter ratio of the first conical wheel 15 to the second conical wheel 17 is 1:2, according to the gear transmission principle, in the same transmission time, the first conical wheel 15 rotates at a larger angle, and the second conical wheel 17 rotates at a smaller angle. Therefore, the first conical wheel 15 drives the second conical wheel 17 to rotate 90°. The second conical wheel 17, through the second rotating rod 16 fixedly connected to it, drives the inclined platform 6 to rotate synchronously 90° until the bottom surface of the inclined platform 6 contacts the ground, forming a sloping passage from the ground to the interior of the housing 1. At this point, the operator can use the ramp of the inclined platform 6 to easily push the trolley 2, which is loaded with the Solomon's seal steaming tray 4, into the box 1. After the trolley 2 is completely inside the box 1, the operator closes the door 5. During the closing process, the door 5 drives the first rotating rod 14 to rotate again, which in turn drives the first conical wheel 15, the second conical wheel 17, and the second rotating rod 16 to rotate in sequence, causing the inclined platform 6 to rotate 90° in the opposite direction and be retracted into the box 1. Since the bottom of the inner side of the door 5 has a groove of the same size as the inclined platform 6, and the top of the second rotating rod 16 is flush with the top of the inclined platform 6, the inclined platform 6 can fit perfectly into the groove when the door 5 is closed, achieving a non-conflicting and tight fit between the door 5 and the inclined platform 6, ensuring the airtightness of the box 1, and providing a stable space environment for the subsequent steaming of Solomon's seal. At this point, the operator can start the steaming device to steam the Solomon's seal in the box 1.
[0042] Remove the Polygonatum rhizome:
[0043] After steaming, the high-temperature steam inside the chamber 1 is first discharged through the inherent exhaust device of the chamber 1. Then, the door 5 is opened and the inclined platform 6 is unfolded through the above process, and the trolley 2 is pushed out. The insertion post 7 is disengaged from the trolley 2 by the cooperation of the handle 12 and the U-shaped slider 13 and other components, and the steaming tray 4 is taken out. Then, the Solomon's seal is taken out.
[0044] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
