Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of medicinal material processing equipment, specifically a Chinese medicinal material dehydrator. Background Technology

[0002] Chinese medicinal herbs typically contain a large amount of water after harvesting. If they are not dehydrated in time, they are prone to mold and rot, leading to the loss of active ingredients and affecting the quality and efficacy of the herbs. Therefore, dehydration is a crucial step in the processing of Chinese medicinal herbs.

[0003] Currently, commonly used equipment for dehydrating Chinese medicinal herbs mainly includes natural drying equipment. Natural drying equipment relies on the natural environment, is greatly affected by weather, has low dehydration efficiency, and is easily contaminated by dust and impurities.

[0004] In addition, Chinese medicinal herbs release a special medicinal odor during the dehydration process. Traditional equipment lacks effective odor control devices, which can easily lead to an unpleasant odor permeating the working environment and affecting the comfort of operators. At the same time, if the wastewater generated during dehydration is not treated properly, it may also cause local environmental pollution.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a Chinese medicinal herb dehydration equipment that combines efficient dehydration, uniform drying, odor treatment, and wastewater collection functions to solve the problems of low efficiency, incomplete treatment, and significant environmental impact in existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dehydrator for Chinese medicinal herbs to solve the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a Chinese herbal medicine dehydrator, comprising a fixed platform and a mounting box, wherein a drive motor and a dehydration device are mounted on the mounting box, and the drive motor is connected to the dehydration device via a belt drive; the dehydration device comprises a base, an insulation box plate and an inner cylinder, wherein the insulation box plate is mounted on the top of the base, and the inner cylinder is rotatably mounted in the middle of the insulation box plate;

[0008] The heat-conducting channels are symmetrically opened in the inner wall of the heat insulation box near the inner cylinder. A heater is installed at one end of the base cavity to heat the heat-conducting channels. Drainage holes are evenly distributed on the inner cylinder. A sealing glass is installed on the front end face of the inner cylinder to make the inner cylinder completely sealed.

[0009] The rear end of the insulation box panel is hinged to have an opening and closing door, a ventilation device is installed on the opening and closing door, a ventilation fan is installed inside the ventilation device, and an exhaust filter pipe is installed on the top of the ventilation fan.

[0010] Preferably, the mounting box is located on top of the fixed platform, and shock-absorbing feet are installed between the four bottom corners of the mounting box and the fixed platform;

[0011] The bottom of the insulation box is equipped with a sewage discharge hopper, and the sewage that seeps through the seepage holes flows to the sewage discharge hopper. The sewage discharge hopper is connected to a sewage pipe, which leads directly to the sewer.

[0012] Preferably, a triangular support frame is provided at the front end of the inner cylinder, and a drive shaft is installed at the front end of the triangular support frame. Both the drive shaft and the drive motor are equipped with pulleys, so that the drive motor drives the drive shaft through the belt.

[0013] Preferably, the ventilation fan draws the gas in the inner cylinder to the exhaust filter pipe for discharge to the outside, maintaining the balance of internal and external air pressure; the exhaust filter pipe includes a fixed pipe and a filter pipe, the fixed pipe is fixedly installed on the ventilation device, the filter pipe is screwed to the top of the fixed pipe, and the filter pipe is equipped with filter cotton containing medicine inside; the ventilation device is equipped with a heat-insulated handle, which can be used to easily open and close the door.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This solution combines the dual functions of centrifugal dehydration and heating drying: the inner cylinder rotates at high speed driven by the motor, quickly throwing off the surface moisture of the Chinese medicinal materials through centrifugal force, achieving initial dehydration; at the same time, the heating machine continuously provides heat through the heat conduction channel attached to the inner cylinder in a ring, uniformly drying the Chinese medicinal materials and further removing internal moisture, solving the problems of incomplete dehydration and the need for secondary processing in traditional equipment, and greatly improving the dehydration efficiency and effect.

[0016] The design of the heat-insulating box reduces heat loss, ensures uniform temperature inside the inner cylinder, and avoids damage to the effective components of medicinal materials caused by local overheating. At the same time, the sealing structure of the sealed glass and the opening and closing door reduces the intrusion of external dust and impurities, ensuring the cleanliness of Chinese medicinal materials during the dehydration process and helping to maintain the stability of the quality of medicinal materials.

[0017] Wastewater treatment and odor control: The water splashed out from the inner cylinder flows into the wastewater discharge hopper through the seepage holes and is directly discharged into the sewer through the wastewater pipe, without contacting the outside world, thus avoiding local pollution caused by wastewater accumulation and large-scale odor spread;

[0018] The ventilation device uses a ventilation fan to draw the hot and humid gas inside the inner cylinder to the exhaust filter pipe. The filter cotton containing the medicine inside the filter pipe can effectively absorb and neutralize the medicine smell, greatly reducing the impact of odor on the surrounding environment and improving the comfort of the working environment.

[0028] Example:

[0029] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0030] A dehydrator for Chinese medicinal herbs includes a fixed platform 1 and a mounting box 2. The mounting box 2 is located on top of the fixed platform 1, and shock-absorbing feet are installed between the four corners of the bottom of the mounting box 2 and the fixed platform 1. The shock-absorbing feet reduce the vibration and noise during the operation of the equipment and improve the operating experience.

[0031] The mounting box 2 is equipped with a drive motor 3 and a dehydration device 4. The drive motor 3 is connected to the dehydration device 4 via belt drive. The dehydration device 4 includes a base 5, a heat insulation box plate 6, and an inner cylinder 7. The heat insulation box plate 6 is located on the top of the base 5, and the inner cylinder 7 is rotatably located in the middle of the heat insulation box plate 6.

[0032] The heat-conducting channels 12 are symmetrically opened in the inner wall of the heat insulation box plate 6 near the inner cylinder 7. A heating machine 11 is installed at one end of the inner cavity of the base 5. The heating machine 11 provides heat to the heat-conducting channels 12, and the heat-conducting channels 12 are circumferentially attached to the inner cylinder 7, continuously providing drying heat to the inner cylinder 7.

[0033] The inner cylinder 7 has evenly distributed seepage holes 8, and the bottom of the insulation box plate 6 is equipped with a sewage discharge hopper 10. The sewage seeping down the seepage holes 8 flows to the sewage discharge hopper 10. The sewage discharge hopper 10 is connected to a sewage pipe, which leads directly to the sewer to reduce the odor from the sewage.

[0034] The inner cylinder 7 is provided with a triangular support frame at the front end, and a drive shaft 9 is installed at the front end of the triangular support frame. Both the drive shaft 9 and the drive motor 3 are equipped with pulleys, so that the drive motor 3 drives the drive shaft 9 through the belt; a sealing glass is installed on the front end face of the inner cylinder 7.

[0035] The rear end of the insulation box panel 6 is movably installed with an opening and closing door 13 via a hinge. Opening the opening and closing door 13 allows medicinal materials to be put into or taken out of the inner cylinder 7.

[0036] A ventilation device 14 is installed on the opening and closing door 13. The ventilation device 14 is connected to the inner cylinder 7. A ventilation fan is installed inside the ventilation device 14. An exhaust filter pipe 16 is installed on the top of the ventilation fan. The ventilation fan draws the gas in the inner cylinder 7 to the exhaust filter pipe 16 for discharge to the outside, maintaining the balance of internal and external air pressure.

[0037] The exhaust filter pipe 16 includes a fixed pipe and a filter pipe. The fixed pipe is fixedly installed on the ventilation device 14, and the filter pipe is screwed to the top of the fixed pipe. The filter pipe is filled with filter cotton containing medicine, which can greatly reduce odor and reduce the impact of medicine smell on the surrounding environment. The filter pipe can be quickly disassembled and replaced by twisting it, which is very convenient.

[0038] The ventilation device 14 is equipped with a heat-insulated handle 15, which allows the door 13 to be opened easily.

[0039] Working principle: After the drive motor 3 starts, it transmits power to the drive shaft 9 through the pulley and belt. The drive shaft 9 drives the inner cylinder 7 to rotate in the middle of the insulation box plate 6.

[0040] When the inner cylinder 7 rotates at high speed, the water in the Chinese medicinal materials is thrown out through the seepage holes 8 on the inner cylinder 7 under the action of centrifugal force, achieving preliminary dehydration. The thrown-out water is collected through the sewage discharge hopper 10 at the bottom of the insulated box plate 6 and discharged into the sewer through the sewage pipe;

[0041] The heating element 11 inside the base 5 is working, and the heat generated is transferred to the inner cylinder 7 through the heat conduction channel 12. The heat conduction channel 12 is attached to the inner cylinder 7 in a circumferential manner, which can continuously provide drying heat to the inner cylinder 7, so that the Chinese medicinal materials are dried while being centrifuged and dehydrated, and further remove moisture.

[0042] The ventilation fan in the ventilation device 14 draws the hot and humid gas inside the inner cylinder 7 to the exhaust filter pipe 16. After being filtered by the filter cotton containing the medicine in the filter pipe, the gas is discharged to the outside, thereby maintaining the air pressure balance inside and outside the inner cylinder 7 and reducing the impact of the medicine smell on the surrounding environment.
