Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medicinal material processing technology, specifically relating to a simple drying room for removing soil from Atractylodes macrocephala. Background Technology

[0002] Atractylodes macrocephala is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb, the dried rhizome of the plant Atractylodes macrocephala in the Asteraceae family. It is warm in nature, bitter and sweet in taste, and enters the spleen and stomach meridians. It has the effects of strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi, drying dampness and promoting diuresis, stopping sweating, and calming the fetus. It is one of my country's major medicinal herbs, mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Anhui, Hubei, and Hunan provinces. Due to its high medicinal and economic value, demand for Atractylodes macrocephala is increasing, leading to its growing artificial cultivation.

[0003] A significant portion of artificial cultivation of Atractylodes macrocephala is done on a small scale by individual farmers. After harvesting, the Atractylodes macrocephala requires multiple heating and processing steps. Due to the typically small scale of these operations and cost considerations, farmers usually do not purchase expensive ovens for heating and processing, but instead use simple drying rooms. Existing drying rooms typically consist of three fixed side walls and one removable side wall. A firewood inlet is located on one of the fixed side walls. A support platform is set up within the space enclosed by the four side walls, and a bamboo board is placed on the support platform. The space under the bamboo board is the firewood combustion zone. In use, the dug-up Atractylodes macrocephala, still covered in soil, is first spread on the bamboo board. After heating for a period of time, the removable side wall is opened, and the Atractylodes macrocephala is turned over using a hoe or broom to remove as much of the dry soil adhering to it as possible, thus improving the heating effect. Since there is only one bamboo board, the amount of Atractylodes macrocephala piled on it is usually large, resulting in a thick stack. Therefore, it is impossible to ensure that every piece of Atractylodes macrocephala is turned over, and turning is time-consuming, laborious, and inefficient in removing soil.

[0004] Furthermore, after the first heating, the lower layer of the stacked Atractylodes macrocephala, being closer to the fire source, has fewer fibrous roots, while the upper layer, being farther from the fire source, retains a significant number of fibrous roots. Therefore, before the next heating, the upper and lower layers of Atractylodes macrocephala need to be swapped to remove the large number of fibrous roots remaining in the upper layer after heating. Originally, the upper and lower layers were stacked on the same bamboo board. After heating, the Atractylodes macrocephala was usually collected by directly pulling it out with a hoe. However, this would mix the original upper and lower layers together, necessitating individual sorting to separate the Atractylodes macrocephala with more fibrous roots from those with fewer, spreading the Atractylodes macrocephala with more fibrous roots on the lower wire mesh board and the Atractylodes macrocephala with fewer fibrous roots on the upper wire mesh board, which is very time-consuming. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems of inconvenient removal of soil adhering to Atractylodes macrocephala and inconvenient sorting of Atractylodes macrocephala in traditional drying rooms, this utility model provides a simple drying room that facilitates soil removal from Atractylodes macrocephala.

[0006] The simple drying chamber for removing soil from Atractylodes macrocephala described in this utility model includes two side walls, a rear wall, and a front wall. The front wall is a rotating door. A firewood inlet is provided on one of the side walls for adding firewood and charcoal for burning. The chamber also includes support hooks, a mesh panel, and handles. The support hooks are arranged in several rows on the rear wall, with at least two support hooks in each row arranged horizontally. A row of mounting holes is provided on each of the two side walls, with the two rows of mounting holes corresponding to each other. Horizontal support rods are detachably inserted into the mounting holes, and the support rods are located on the side of the rotating door. The mesh panel includes a fixed frame and a wire mesh installed on the fixed frame. The fixed frame is composed of a front plate, two side plates, and a rear plate connected together. The front plate is located on the front wall side, and the rear plate is located on the rear wall side. One end of the mesh panel is detachably hooked into the mesh hole by the support hook, and the other end rests on the support rod. An insertion hole is provided on the front plate, and the handle is detachably inserted into the insertion hole. The length of the mesh panel is less than the length of the side wall, and the sum of the length of the mesh panel and the length of the handle is greater than the length of the side wall. The area below the bottom mesh panel is the firewood burning zone.

[0007] After the initial heating of the drying chamber, the rotating door is opened, and the handle is inserted into the hole on the top layer of the mesh plate. The handle is then pulled upwards to detach the mesh plate from the support rods. The support rods on both sides of the mesh plate are then removed. Using the support hooks as the pivot point, the mesh plate is quickly and forcefully lifted upwards and then rapidly lowered. At this point, the Atractylodes macrocephala detaches from the mesh plate and suspends in mid-air. Under gravity, the Atractylodes macrocephala falls onto the mesh plate and collides with it or other Atractylodes macrocephala, shaking off the dry soil adhering to it. After several vibrations, most of the soil is removed, thus improving the subsequent heating effect. After the vibration is complete, the handle is released, and the end of the mesh plate near the rotating door falls onto the mesh plate below. At this point, the mesh plate is tilted. The Atractylodes macrocephala can then be easily collected by using a hoe along the slope. This layer of Atractylodes macrocephala... The top layer, furthest from the heat source, retains more fibrous roots. After removing the Atractylodes macrocephala from this layer, remove it from the support hook and take it out of the drying room. Then, proceed to the next layer of Atractylodes macrocephala to remove soil and collect the remaining roots. Continue until the bottom layer of Atractylodes macrocephala is cleaned and collected. The bottom layer of Atractylodes macrocephala is closer to the heat source and has fewer fibrous roots. After the collected Atractylodes macrocephala has been left to rest for a predetermined time, spread the Atractylodes macrocephala from the top layer of Atractylodes macrocephala onto the bottom layer of Atractylodes macrocephala and place the layer in place. Then spread the Atractylodes macrocephala from the bottom layer of Atractylodes macrocephala onto the top layer of Atractylodes macrocephala and place the layer in place. After the positions of each layer of Atractylodes macrocephala are exchanged, close the rotating door and reheat. This process removes as many fibrous roots as possible from the bottom layer of Atractylodes macrocephala, resulting in fewer roots overall. It also eliminates the need for individual sorting of Atractylodes macrocephala, saving the sorting step.

[0008] Furthermore, the support positions on the support rods and the support hooks of the supporting mesh are at the same height. This ensures that the placed mesh is horizontal, improving the baking and drying effect.

[0009] Furthermore, the support hook includes a horizontal bar and a vertical bar. One end of the horizontal bar is mounted on the rear wall, and the other end is connected to the vertical bar. The diameter of the vertical bar is smaller than the mesh opening diameter of the mesh panel. This facilitates the installation and removal of the mesh panel.

[0010] Furthermore, the spacing between adjacent mounting holes in each row is 10-15cm. This ensures that after a certain thickness of white powder is stacked on the lower mesh plate, it can adhere closely to the upper mesh plate, improving the baking and drying effect.

[0011] Furthermore, there are two horizontally arranged sockets on the front panel, with a distance of 50-80cm between them. This allows for easy operation; after inserting the grips into the sockets, one person can grip the grips with both hands, or two people can each grip one grip and work simultaneously.

[0012] Beneficial effects: This utility model of drying room is suitable for small-scale farming operations. It allows for quick lifting and lowering of the mesh plate, causing the Atractylodes macrocephala to detach from the mesh plate before falling back onto it and colliding with it or other Atractylodes macrocephala, thus shaking off any adhering dry soil. This is very convenient. After vibration, the mesh plate is lowered, tilted, making it easy to collect the Atractylodes macrocephala by shoveling it down the slope. It also allows for easy repositioning of Atractylodes macrocephala previously located on different mesh plates before heating, eliminating the need for sorting and maximizing the removal of fibrous roots, resulting in fewer fibrous roots overall. By ensuring that the support positions on the support rods and hooks of the mesh plate are at the same height, it can... To improve the baking and drying effect, the screens are placed in a roughly horizontal position. The support hooks are designed with a diameter smaller than the mesh openings to facilitate installation and removal. A spacing of 10-15cm between adjacent holes in each row ensures that a certain thickness of bleached product stacked on the lower screen adheres to the upper screen, further enhancing the baking and drying effect. Two horizontally arranged insertion holes on the front panel, spaced 50-80cm apart, allow for easy operation. One person can use both hands to grip the handles, or two people can each use one handle simultaneously. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0014] The technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below through embodiments, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the embodiments described.

[0015] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a simple drying chamber for removing soil from Atractylodes macrocephala includes two side walls 2, a rear wall 1, and a front wall. The front wall is a rotating door 3. A firewood inlet is provided on one of the side walls 2 for adding firewood and charcoal for burning. The chamber also includes support hooks 4, a mesh panel 5, and handles 6. The support hooks 4 are arranged in several rows, for example, four rows, on the rear wall 1, with two hooks 4 in each row arranged horizontally. A row of mounting holes is provided on each of the two side walls 2, with the two rows corresponding to each other. Specifically, there are four mounting holes in each row, for example, with a spacing of 15cm between the two mounting holes. A horizontal stainless steel support rod 7 is detachably inserted into each mounting hole, located on the side of the rotating door 3. The mesh panel 5 includes a fixed frame and an iron frame welded to the fixed frame. The wire mesh frame is welded from a front plate, two side plates, and a rear plate, all made of stainless steel. The front plate is located on the front wall side, and the rear plate is located on the rear wall 1 side. One end of the mesh plate 5 is detachably hooked onto the mesh opening by a support hook 4, and the other end rests on a support rod 7. Two through-holes are opened on the front plate, arranged horizontally, with a distance of 60cm between them. The handle 6 is a stainless steel tube, detachably inserted into the hole (the diameter of the handle 6 is slightly smaller than the hole diameter, which can be adjusted as needed). The length of the mesh plate 5 is less than the length of the side wall 2, and the sum of the lengths of the mesh plate 5 and the handle 6 is greater than the length of the side wall 2 (i.e., ensuring that after the handle 6 is inserted into the hole, the hand grip of the handle 6 is outside the opened rotating door 3, preventing burns from reaching into the drying chamber). The lengths of the front, rear, and side plates are determined according to the size of the drying chamber, and the widths of the front, rear, and side plates are all 3-5cm, preferably 4cm.

[0016] Specifically, the support positions on the support rods 7 and the support hooks 4 of the supporting mesh panel 5 are at the same height, meaning that the mesh panel 5 is roughly horizontal after placement. The support hook 4 includes a horizontal rod 41 and a vertical rod 42. One end of the horizontal rod 41 is mounted on the rear wall 1, and the other end is connected to the vertical rod 42. The diameter of the vertical rod 42 is smaller than the mesh aperture of the mesh panel 5. Both the horizontal rod 41 and the vertical rod 42 are made of stainless steel and are connected by welding. The length of the portion of the horizontal rod 41 extending beyond the side wall 2 is 3-5 cm, preferably 4 cm, and the length of the vertical rod 42 is 1-2 cm, preferably 2 cm. Below the bottom mesh panel 5 is the firewood combustion zone, and the height of the firewood combustion zone (the height of the bottom mesh panel 5 from the ground) can refer to existing technology.

[0017] In practical use, the following explanation will be based on a two-layer mesh panel 5 (e.g.) Figure 1-2As shown in the diagram, first open the rotating door 3, then insert support rods 7 into the two side walls 2 respectively. Then, hang one end of the lower mesh plate 5 on the two support hooks 4 and place the other end on the two support rods 7, making the mesh plate 5 roughly horizontal. Next, spread the harvested Atractylodes macrocephala on the lower mesh plate 5. Then, place the upper mesh plate 5 and spread Atractylodes macrocephala in the same way. Then close the rotating door 3. Next, light firewood on the ground below the lower mesh plate 5 for heating. After heating for the predetermined time, stop heating, open the rotating door 3, insert the two handles 6 into the two holes on the upper mesh plate 5, lift the upper mesh plate 5 upward away from the support rods 7, and then pull out the support rods 7. Then, forcefully and quickly raise the upper mesh plate 5, and then quickly lower it, so that the Atractylodes macrocephala falls back onto the upper mesh plate 5 due to gravity after leaving the upper mesh plate 5, and collides with the upper mesh plate 5 or other Atractylodes macrocephala, thereby shaking off the dry soil attached to the Atractylodes macrocephala. After repeated vibration operations, the soil can be removed to the maximum extent. Then, release the grip on rod 6, and the end of the upper mesh plate 5 furthest from the support hook 4 will fall onto the lower mesh plate 5, causing the upper mesh plate 5 to tilt. Use a hoe to pluck the Atractylodes macrocephala from the end of the support hook 4 towards the rotating door 3 for collection. After collection, remove the upper mesh plate 5 from the support hook 4 and move it out of the rotating door 3. Continue the vibration to remove soil and tilt collection operation of the lower mesh plate 5 in the same manner. After placing the collected Atractylodes macrocephala from the upper and lower mesh plates 5 outside the drying room for a predetermined time, spread the Atractylodes macrocephala from the upper mesh plate 5 onto the lower mesh plate 5, and vice versa. After placing each mesh plate 5 in place, reheat, and then repeat the same steps. After this heating treatment, the Atractylodes macrocephala is dried, soil-free, and its fibrous roots are removed, eliminating the need for sorting.

[0018] Unless otherwise specified, all technologies mentioned above refer to existing technologies.

[0019] As described above, although the present invention has been shown and described with reference to specific preferred embodiments, it should not be construed as limiting the present invention itself. Various changes in form and detail may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
