Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of Rhodiola rosea production technology, specifically relating to a Rhodiola rosea slice drying device. Background Technology

[0002] Rhodiola rosea, a perennial herb belonging to the genus Rhodiola in the family Crassulaceae, has a stout, conical, fleshy, brownish-yellow root with numerous fibrous roots at the root neck. The rhizome is short, thick, and cylindrical, covered with numerous imbricate, scale-like leaves. It can be used medicinally to replenish qi and clear the lungs, improve intelligence and nourish the heart. It is a widely used traditional Chinese medicine and needs to be sliced ​​and dried before use. In modern production, the root neck is thoroughly cleaned, most of the fibrous roots are removed, and the remaining part is sliced. After slicing, it is sun-dried or oven-dried to evaporate the moisture, preventing spoilage during storage. However, when drying slices, they need to be laid out on a drying platform, such as a wire mesh or flat plate. At this time, the slices are exposed to the outside world. During drying, flying insects and other organisms in the air will come into contact with the slices, causing the dirt and bacteria they carry to adhere to the slices. The bacteria can cause the slices to mold and rot. Moreover, during the drying process, only one side of the slice can be directly exposed to sunlight. In reality, it is done manually to turn the slices over to prevent the other side from being exposed to the drying platform and causing moisture to evaporate in time and mold. This method is not only physically demanding for workers, but also inefficient. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Based on this, this application provides a Rhodiola rosea slice drying device to solve the technical problems in the prior art where flying insects and stains can easily come into contact with the slices during the drying process, and manual turning is inefficient, resulting in reduced slice cleanliness and mold growth.

[0004] The technical solution to the above-mentioned technical problems in this application is as follows: A device for drying Rhodiola rosea slices, comprising: The outer frame has two parts, and the two outer frames are hinged together and can be interlocked. The tiling assembly is provided in two parts, with each of the two tiling assemblies being respectively disposed on two outer frames. The tiling assembly enables the slice to come into contact with air. The insect-proof component is provided in two parts, with each part disposed on one of the two outer frames. The two parts are located on the outer side of the two outer frames when they are engaged, and allow air circulation. A support assembly, wherein the outer frame is rotatably mounted on the support assembly.

[0005] Preferably, the tiling component includes a grid, which is disposed within the outer frame.

[0006] Preferably, one of the outer frames is provided with an elastic part, which can drive the tiling component on the outer frame to move along the depth direction of the outer frame.

[0007] Preferably, the elastic part includes at least one slide rod, the tiling assembly is disposed at the end of the slide rod located inside the outer frame, and a tension spring is disposed between the end of the slide rod located outside the outer frame and the outer frame.

[0008] Preferably, the insect-proof component includes a mesh screen, which is disposed on the outside of the two outer frames when they are fastened together.

[0009] Preferably, the insect-proof component further includes an outer ring disposed on the outer side of the outer frame and a strap, with the mesh covering the outer ring, and a groove provided on the outer side of the outer ring, the strap being able to press the edge of the mesh into the groove.

[0010] Preferably, the support assembly includes a frame and placement portions disposed on the upper sides of both ends of the frame, and the two ends of the outer frame can be mounted on the placement portions.

[0011] Preferably, the placement part includes two hinged semicircular grooves that can be interlocked, and the two ends of the outer frame can be mounted on the semicircular grooves.

[0012] Preferably, one of the outer frames is provided with a throttle handle at both ends, and each of the two throttle handles is provided with a bearing. The bearings can be mounted on the placement part and rotate along the axis of the throttle handle.

[0013] Preferably, a sleeve is provided at one end of the outer frame, a spring is provided inside the sleeve, one of the throttles slides inside the sleeve, and a locking block is provided on the throttle, and a locking groove is provided on the semi-circular groove on the corresponding side.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following advantages: This application provides a Rhodiola rosea slice drying device. A flattening component is connected to an outer frame. Two outer frames are then opened, with one frame laid flat. The cut Rhodiola rosea slices are laid flat on the flattening component within this frame. After the slices are fully covered, the other outer frame is rotated, causing it to snap onto the first frame. At this point, the other flattening component presses down on the slices, clamping them together to prevent warping during drying and ensuring the slices remain flat after drying. Two insect-repellent components are located on the outer sides of the two outer frames, blocking flying insects while ensuring air circulation. The outer frame can then be placed in sunlight for drying. After one side of the slices has been exposed to sunlight for a certain period, the outer frame 100 is rotated on the support assembly to flip the slices, bringing the other side into the sunlight's reach, thus promptly drying the cut surface and accelerating moisture evaporation. This device effectively blocks flying insects during the drying process, preventing them from affecting the slices' cleanliness. Alternatively, the clamping of the two flattening components can keep the slices flat during the drying process, preventing warping or deformation. Attached Figure Description

[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of this application. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 In one specific embodiment of this application, A device for drying Rhodiola rosea slices, comprising: The outer frame 100 is provided in two parts, and the two outer frames 100 are hinged together and can be interlocked. The tiling assembly is provided in two parts, with each of the two tiling assemblies being respectively disposed on two outer frames 100. The tiling assembly enables the slice to come into contact with air. The insect-proof component is provided in two parts, and the two insect-proof components are respectively disposed on the two outer frames 100. The two insect-proof components are respectively located on the outside of the two outer frames 100 in the snap-fit ​​state, and can allow air circulation. A support assembly, wherein the outer frame 100 is rotatably mounted on the support assembly.

[0021] The flattening component can be a net, a flat plate with ventilation holes, or a device or facility capable of flattening the slices. The insect-proof component can be a net cover, a gauze curtain, a dustproof cloth, or a device or facility capable of covering the slices to prevent flying insects from attaching. The support component can be a support frame or scaffolding.

[0022] Connect the flattening component to the outer frame 100, then open both outer frames 100, so that one outer frame 100 is laid flat. Lay the cut Rhodiola rosea slices flat on the flattening component in this outer frame 100. After it is fully covered, rotate the other outer frame 100 so that it snaps onto this outer frame 100. At this time, the other flattening component will press on the slices. By clamping the slices with the two flattening components, the slices are prevented from warping during the drying process and remain flat after drying. At this time, the two insect-repellent components are located on the outside of the two outer frames 100 respectively. With air circulation ensured, they block flying insects. Then, the outer frame 100 can be placed in the sun for drying on the support assembly. During the drying process, after one side of the slice has been exposed to sunlight for a certain period of time, rotate the outer frame 100 so that the outer frame 100 rotates and flips on the support assembly, so that the other side of the slice is turned into the sunlight, thereby timely drying of the cut surface and accelerating moisture evaporation.

[0023] Furthermore, after the two outer frames 100 are fastened together, the fastening state needs to be kept stable. Therefore, a collar 170 is provided on the other side of each of the two outer frames 100. The axis of the collar 170 is parallel to the length direction of the outer frame 100. After the two outer frames 100 are fastened together, the axes of the two collars 170 will be on the same straight line. At this time, the pin can be inserted into the two collars 170, thereby fixing the ends of the two outer frames 100 and preventing them from opening.

[0024] The above methods effectively prevent flying insects from damaging the slices during the drying process, thus ensuring their cleanliness. Furthermore, the clamping of the two flattening components keeps the slices flat during drying, preventing warping or deformation. The entire outer frame can be flipped over, allowing all slices to be turned over manually, improving efficiency and ensuring the cut surfaces are promptly dried under sunlight.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the tiling component includes a grid 200 disposed within the outer frame 100.

[0026] The grid 200 is connected inside the outer frame 100. When the slice is laid flat on the grid 200, more of the part of the slice that contacts the grid 200 can be exposed to the air. When the two outer frames 100 are fastened together, the two grids 200 can clamp the slice from both sides and maintain air contact. With air flow, moisture evaporation is accelerated, and sunlight is reduced. During drying, as much sunlight as possible can be irradiated onto the slice.

[0027] However, when slicing Rhodiola rosea, slices of varying thicknesses are cut as needed. Therefore, the spacing between the two tiling components needs to be adjusted when clamping the slices together. In a preferred embodiment, one of the outer frames 100 is provided with an elastic part, which can drive the tiling component on the outer frame 100 to move along the depth direction of the outer frame 100.

[0028] The elastic element can be a spring, a spring sheet, or a device or facility that can move the tiling assembly along the depth direction of the outer frame 100. In use, the tiling assembly in the horizontally placed outer frame 100 can be fixed inside the outer frame 100. Rotating the open outer frame 100 will cause the elastic element to move away from the horizontally placed outer frame 100, thus avoiding interference when the operator places the slice on the tiling assembly. After placement, the other outer frame 100 can be rotated to achieve the snap-fit ​​process. During this process, the elastic element will move above the slice, causing the tiling assembly to press against the slice. As the two outer frames snap together, the slice will press against the tiling assembly, allowing the tiling assembly to undergo appropriate displacement within the outer frame 100 due to the elastic element's movement. This prevents excessive clamping of the slice and deformation. The elastic element itself uses its elasticity to ensure the tiling assembly remains in contact with the slice, preventing the slice from wobbling or flipping between the two tiling assemblies and overlapping during the movement of the outer frames.

[0029] By means of the above method, after the slices are laid, one of the tiling components can be appropriately displaced according to the thickness of the slices, so that the two tiling components can clamp the slices while avoiding damage to the slices, thus meeting the needs of slices of different thicknesses.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment: the elastic part includes at least one slide bar 110, the tiling assembly is disposed at the end of the slide bar 110 located inside the outer frame 100, and a tension spring 120 is disposed between the end of the slide bar 110 located outside the outer frame 100 and the outer frame 100.

[0031] When the outer frame 100 rotates and engages with another outer frame 100 (the horizontally placed outer frame 100 mentioned above), under no-load conditions (i.e., when no slices are laid), the two tiling components are in close contact with each other. At this time, the tension spring 120 is in its initial state (when not under load, the coils of the tension spring are generally tightly closed without gaps). When the slices are loaded, the two outer frames 100 are opened, and the slices are laid on the tiling components. As the outer frame 100 rotates, it can drive the slide rod 110 and the tiling components to move. When the tiling components contact the slices, the two outer frames 100 are not fully engaged. Therefore, as the two outer frames 100 continue to engage, the slices, pressing against the tiling components, will push the slide rod 110 to slide away from the slices on the outer frame 100. At this time, the tension spring 120 is stretched, and the tension spring 120 provides a pulling force to the slide rod 110, so that the tiling components can always contact the slices, thereby satisfying the clamping effect of slices of different thicknesses.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment: the insect-proof component includes a mesh 310, which is disposed on the outside of the two outer frames 100 in the snap-fit ​​state.

[0033] By attaching the mesh 310 to the outside of the outer frame 100, that is, the side away from the slice, when the two outer frames 100 are fastened together, the two meshes 310 can be located outside the two flat components, covering the slice and thus preventing flying insects from entering and affecting the slice.

[0034] Over time, dust and impurities carried in the air will accumulate on the mesh 310, so it is necessary to clean the mesh 310 to avoid affecting its breathability. Therefore, in this application, the insect-proof component also includes an outer ring 320 disposed on the outside of the outer frame 100 and a strap 340. The mesh 310 covers the outer ring 320, and a groove 330 is provided on the outside of the outer ring 320. The strap 340 can press the edge of the mesh 310 into the groove 330.

[0035] The outer ring 320 is then fixed to the outside of the outer frame 100. The mesh 310 is then covered on the outer ring 320 and tied from the side of the outer ring 320 with the straps 340, thus completing the installation of the mesh 310. After a period of use, the mesh 310 can be removed by untying the straps 340, making it easy to clean and replace the mesh 310. This allows the cleaning process of the mesh 310 to be kept away from the outer frame 100, thereby preventing the inside of the outer frame 100 and the flat assembly from getting dirty.

[0036] Furthermore, when the binding strap 340 binds the mesh 310, the binding strap 340 can be embedded into the groove 330, pressing the edge of the mesh 310 into the groove 330, thereby increasing the curvature of the edge of the mesh 310, increasing the friction after binding, and preventing the mesh 310 from slipping off the side of the outer ring 320 when exposed to wind or human touch, thus improving the firmness of the mesh 310.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment: the support assembly includes a frame 400 and placement portions disposed on the upper sides of both ends of the frame 400, and both ends of the outer frame 100 can be mounted on the placement portions.

[0038] The placement area can be a beam, a platform, or other devices and facilities that can support both ends of the outer frame 100. After the slices are laid out, the two interlocking outer frames 100 can be moved to the placement area by manual handling and erected. The frame 400 is used to lift the two outer frames 100 off the ground, allowing air to flow through the upper and lower sides of the outer frame 100, thus drying both the top and bottom of the slices.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment: the placement part includes two hinged semicircular grooves 410 that can be interlocked, and the two ends of the outer frame 100 can be mounted on the semicircular grooves 410.

[0040] By opening the two semicircular slots 410, the end of the outer frame 100 can be placed into one of the semicircular slots 410. Then, by rotating the other semicircular slot 410, the end of the outer frame 100 can be fastened in it, thereby limiting the side of the end of the outer frame 100 and preventing the outer frame 100 from slipping out of the placement part. The end after the two semicircular slots 410 are fastened can be locked by a latch.

[0041] During the drying process, after the two outer frames 100 are fastened together, the two sides of the slice cannot be exposed to sunlight at the same time. If it is not turned over, the moisture on one side of the slice will evaporate quickly, while the moisture on the other side will evaporate more slowly, which will prolong the overall drying time. Therefore, in order to speed up the drying efficiency, in this application, one of the outer frames 100 is provided with a handle 130 at both ends, and a bearing 140 is provided on each of the two handles 130. The bearings 140 can be mounted on the placement part and rotate along the axis of the handle 130.

[0042] When setting up the two 100 frames, align the two handles 130 with the semicircular grooves 410 at both ends of the frame 400, so that the bearings 140 are embedded in them. Then, fasten the other semicircular groove 410, so that the bearings 140 are located in the space formed by the two semicircular grooves 410. During drying, by rotating the handles 130, the bearings 140 can be used to make the two fastened outer frames 100 rotate on the frame 400, so that different sides of the slices can be rotated to the position where they can be exposed to sunlight, so that both sides of the slices can be exposed to sunlight. At the same time, the rotation can also accelerate the surrounding air flow, so that the moisture can be carried away by the air more quickly, thus speeding up the drying efficiency and effect.

[0043] In a preferred embodiment: a sleeve 150 is provided at one end of the outer frame 100, a spring is provided inside the sleeve 150, a handle 130 slides inside the sleeve 150, and a locking block 160 is provided on the handle 130, and a locking groove 420 is provided on the semi-circular groove 410 on the corresponding side.

[0044] Initially, the locking block 160 is engaged in the slot 420, and the handle 130 cannot be rotated. When it is necessary to flip the two interlocking outer frames 100, the operator can manually pull the handle 130 outward. The handle 130 will slide outward in the sleeve 150 and compress the spring. The handle 130 will then drive the locking block 160 to slide out of the slot 420, no longer restricted by the slot 420, and the handle 130 can then rotate smoothly. After the outer frame 100 is flipped to achieve the slicing and flipping, the handle 130 is released. Under the force of the spring, the handle 130 retracts into the sleeve 150, and the locking block 160 will then engage in the slot 420 again, thus fixing the state of the outer frame 100. For example, see reference. Figure 6 The slots 420 on the two semicircular grooves 410 are on the same straight line. That is, after the locking block 160 comes out of one of the slots 420, it will be aligned with the other slot 420 after rotating 180 degrees. After the upper surface has been exposed to sunlight for a certain period of time, pull out the handle 130, rotate it 180 degrees, and release the handle 130. The locking block 160 will then be locked into the slot 420, thus completing the fixed state.

[0045] By using the above method, the slices can be flipped over and dried while maintaining their state, thus preventing the outer frame 100 from constantly flipping over and causing safety hazards when exposed to strong airflow (wind).

[0046] The above embodiments merely illustrate several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
