Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medicinal material drying technology, specifically a Chinese herbal medicine drying device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing, drying medicinal materials is a crucial step in ensuring efficacy and extending shelf life. Traditional drying methods mostly rely on natural air drying or simple drying rooms. The former is greatly affected by weather and environment, resulting in low drying efficiency and a high risk of mold growth and loss of active ingredients. The latter generally suffers from insufficient precision in temperature and humidity control, easily leading to localized overheating or uneven drying, which affects the quality of the medicinal materials. With the standardized development of the traditional Chinese medicine industry, the requirements for controllability, efficiency, and intelligence in the drying process are increasing. Existing equipment still has room for improvement in terms of thermal energy utilization efficiency, precise control of drying parameters, and automated continuous operation capabilities, making it difficult to fully meet the standardized and high-quality drying needs of modern traditional Chinese medicine production.

[0003] Application number CN202023112398.8 discloses a drying device for traditional Chinese medicine materials, belonging to the field of traditional Chinese medicine processing technology. Addressing the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as excessive noise from vibration drying and the tendency of ordinary turning to flip the medicinal materials to the outside, this device incorporates a turning plate located above a mesh heating conveyor belt, with protective baffles at the edges of the mesh heating conveyor belt. The device includes a drying hood, an annular mesh heating conveyor belt, and a conveyor belt drive wheel. The drying hood is connected to a heating pipe through which hot air is introduced. Multiple hollow tubes are positioned in the middle of the mesh heating conveyor belt, and each hollow tube is connected to a turning plate. A gear is connected to the middle of the turning plate, and a conveyor belt is mounted on the gear. The conveyor belt is driven by a drive mechanism. Protective baffles are provided at the edges of the mesh heating conveyor belt; multiple sets of protective baffles are provided, with each set of protective baffles connected at the ends. It can dry Chinese medicinal materials that need to be dried and reduce the problem of scattering during the turning process. However, the device has a shortcoming: it is not able to turn the medicines that need to be dried during use. As a result, the medicines inside the device are still damp after a period of use, which leads to low efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model is a Chinese herbal medicine drying device, including a support frame assembly 1, a drying dish assembly 3 is installed on the top of the support frame assembly 1 through a braking assembly 2, a stirring assembly 4 is installed on the top of the support frame assembly 1, and the stirring assembly 4 is set on the drying dish assembly 3.

[0026] The stir-frying assembly 4 includes a rotating rod device 401, a mounting frame 402 in the middle of the rotating rod device 401, a second rotating mechanism 403 on the top of the mounting frame 402, a bevel gear 404 at the output end of the second rotating mechanism 403, bevel gears 405 on both sides of the first bevel gear 404, the two bevel gears 405 meshing with the first bevel gear 404, one bevel gear 405 being located on the top of the stir-frying hammer 406, and the other bevel gear 405 being located on the top of the stir-frying spatula 407.

[0027] By installing a stirring component 4 on the device, the device can be stirred and pounded in different ways during the drying process, which can fully dry the excess moisture and improve the drying efficiency.

[0028] The support frame assembly 1 includes a support frame 101, a middle layer mounting frame 102 fixed in the middle of the support frame 101, a top layer mounting frame 104 mounted on the top of the support frame 101, limit slide rails 103 on both sides of the top of the middle layer mounting frame 102, and a drying device 105 mounted in the middle of the middle layer mounting frame 102. The support frame 101 in the support frame assembly 1 bears the overall weight, the middle layer mounting frame 102 fixes the drying device 105 and provides a mounting base for other components, and the top layer mounting frame 104 supports the rotating rod device 401 through the limit ring to ensure the stable operation of the stir-frying component 4. After the drying device 105 is started, it directly delivers heat into the drying container 304.

[0029] The braking assembly 2 includes a rotating mechanism 201, which is mounted on the top side of the middle mounting bracket 102 via a bracket. There are two rotating mechanisms 201, which are symmetrically arranged. The output end of the rotating mechanism 201 is provided with a screw 202. A movable screw block 203 is provided in the middle of the screw 202. A translation plate 204 is installed on the top of the movable screw blocks 203 on both sides. The two sides of the translation plate 204 are slidably mounted on the top of the limiting slide rail 103 via limiting sliders 205. When the two symmetrically arranged rotating mechanisms 201 in the braking assembly 2 are started synchronously, they will drive the screw 202 to rotate, causing the movable screw blocks 203 sleeved on the screw 202 to move along the axial direction of the screw 202, thereby driving the translation plate 204 on the top to move. The translation plate 204 slides along the limiting slide rail 103 via the limiting sliders 205 to ensure the stability of the movement direction.

[0030] The drying container assembly 3 includes hinge support rods 301. There are two sets of hinge support rods 301, with two rods in each set. The bottom of the two hinge support rods 301 are respectively hinged to the two ends of the translation plate 204. The middle of one hinge support rod 301 is hinged to a positioning connecting rod 303. The top of the two hinge support rods 301 are installed on the outer wall of the drying container 304 through limit bolts 302. The positioning connecting rod 303 is hinged to the top side of the middle layer mounting frame 102. When the translation plate 204 moves, the drying container 304 is driven to move through the hinge support rods 301 hinged at both ends. At the same time, the positioning connecting rod 303 limits the rotation angle of the hinge support rods 301, so as to realize the adjustment of the position or tilt angle of the drying container 304.

[0031] The two ends of the rotating rod device 401 are set on the top of the top mounting frame 104 through limiting rings. The turning hammer 406 and the turning shovel 407 are set inside the drying container 304. The second rotating mechanism 403 on the mounting frame 402 is started to drive the first bevel gear 404 at the output end to rotate. Since the first bevel gear 404 meshes with the second bevel gear 405 on both sides, it can drive the turning hammer 406 and the turning shovel 407 to rotate. The two movements are superimposed so that the turning hammer 406 and the turning shovel 407 simultaneously realize the revolution around the rotating rod device 401 and their own rotation in the drying container 304, so as to turn the medicinal materials in all directions to avoid local overheating or uneven drying.

[0032] A transmission gear 4011 is installed on the outer wall of the rotating rod device 401. A transmission belt 4012 is provided on the outer side of the transmission gear 4011. A drive gear 4013 is provided on the other end of the inner side of the transmission belt 4012. The drive gear 4013 is located at the output end of the rotating mechanism 4014. The rotating mechanism 4014 is installed on the top of the top mounting frame 104 by a bracket. After the rotating mechanism 4014 in the stir-frying assembly 4 is started, it drives the drive gear 4013 at the output end to rotate. The drive gear 4013 drives the transmission gear 4011 to rotate through the transmission belt 4012, thereby causing the rotating rod device 401 to rotate around its own axis.

[0033] This Chinese herbal medicine drying device is supported by a frame assembly 1. The drying device 105 serves as the core heat source for drying the herbs. The position and angle of the drying container assembly 3 are adjusted using a braking assembly 2, and the stirring assembly 4 agitates the herbs within the drying container 304, ultimately achieving uniform drying. Within the frame assembly 1, the support frame 101 bears the overall weight, the middle mounting frame 102 secures the drying device 105 and provides a base for other components, and the top mounting frame 104 supports the rotating rod device 401 via a limiting ring to ensure stable operation of the stirring assembly 4. Once the drying device 105 is started, it directly supplies heat to the drying container 304. When the two symmetrically arranged rotating mechanisms 201 in the braking assembly 2 start synchronously, they drive the screw... Rotating rod 202 causes the movable screw block 203 sleeved on screw 202 to move axially along screw 202, thereby driving the top translation plate 204 to move. The translation plate 204 slides along the limiting slide rail 103 via the limiting slider 205 to ensure stable movement. When the translation plate 204 moves, it drives the drying container 304 to move via the hinge support rod 301 hinged at both ends. At the same time, the positioning connecting rod 303 limits the rotation angle of the hinge support rod 301, ultimately realizing the adjustment of the position or tilt angle of the drying container 304. After the stir-frying component 4's transfer machine 3 4014 starts, it drives the output end drive gear 4013 to rotate. The drive gear 4013 drives the transmission gear 4011 to rotate via the transmission belt 4012, thereby causing the rotating rod device 401 to rotate. Rotating around its own axis, the rotating mechanism 403 on the mounting frame 402 starts, driving the output bevel gear 404 to rotate. Since the bevel gear 404 meshes with the bevel gears 405 on both sides, it can drive the turning hammer 406 and the turning spatula 407 to rotate. The superposition of the two movements causes the turning hammer 406 and the turning spatula 407 to simultaneously revolve around the rotating rod device 401 and rotate on their own axis within the drying container 304, turning the medicinal materials in all directions to avoid local overheating or uneven drying. In the working process, the equipment is first initialized and the medicinal materials are placed. The stability of each component of the support frame assembly 1 is checked, and it is ensured that the rotating mechanism 201 of the braking assembly 2, the rotating mechanism 403 and the rotating mechanism 4014 of the turning assembly 4 are in a power-off standby state. Subsequently... The rotating mechanism 201 is started, which drives the screw 202 to rotate. This causes the moving screw block 203 to move the translation plate 204 along the limiting slide rail 103. Then, the drying container 304 is adjusted to a position that is convenient for feeding materials through the hinge support rod 301. The Chinese medicinal materials to be dried are poured into the drying container 304, and the amount of medicinal materials is controlled not to exceed 2 / 3 of its volume. Then, the drying container 304 is reset and the drying is started. The rotating mechanism 201 is started again to adjust the position of the moving screw block 203 in the opposite direction, so that the translation plate 204 drives the drying container 304 to reset and face the drying device 105 on the middle mounting frame 102. The power supply of the drying device 105 is turned on and the temperature is set according to the type of medicinal materials. The drying program is started so that the drying device 105 releases heat into the drying container 304.Once the temperature inside the drying container 304 reaches the set value, the second and third rotating mechanisms 4 of the stir-frying assembly 4 are simultaneously activated. The third rotating mechanism 4014 drives the drive gear 4013 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission gear 4011 via the transmission belt 4012, causing the rotating rod device 401 to rotate around its own axis. This causes the stir-frying hammer 406 and the stir-frying shovel 407 to revolve around the rotating rod device 401. The second rotating mechanism 403 drives the first bevel gear 404 to rotate, which in turn drives the stir-frying hammer 406 and the stir-frying shovel 407 to rotate on their own axes via the meshing bevel gear 405. The combined motion of these two movements causes the stir-frying hammer 406 to lightly pound the loose medicinal materials, while the stir-frying shovel 407 to stir and mix them. During the drying process, this process is repeated every 15-30 seconds. Check the drying status of the medicinal materials every minute. If some parts of the materials are too dry, adjust the tilt angle of the drying container 304 by using the first rotating machine 201 to move the materials to a cooler area. If the materials are clumped, increase the speed of the second rotating machine 403 to enhance the loosening effect of the stirring hammer 406. When the moisture content of the materials reaches the target value, first turn off the drying device 105 and keep the stirring component 4 running for 5-10 minutes to utilize residual heat for temperature equalization. Then turn off the second rotating machine 403 and the third rotating machine 4014. Next, start the first rotating machine 201 and adjust the drying container 304 to a position that facilitates material discharge. Remove the dried materials. Finally, disconnect the power supply to all equipment, clean the residual debris in the drying container 304, and check whether the stirring hammer 406, stirring spatula 407, and other parts are worn. This completes one drying operation.
