Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medicinal material cleaning and drying technology, specifically relating to a drying mechanism of a medicinal material cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Medicinal materials refer to natural medicines derived from plants, animals, or minerals, used for the prevention and treatment of diseases and the regulation of physiological functions. They must meet national drug standards and are the raw materials for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Medicinal materials must be dried after washing, mainly because washing leaves them with a large amount of moisture. If this moisture is not removed in time, they are prone to mold, insect infestation, or discoloration during storage and transportation, leading to deterioration and unusability. At the same time, drying facilitates the long-term storage, transportation, and subsequent processing of medicinal materials.

[0003] Currently, after cleaning the medicinal herbs, the herb washing machine blows air directly onto the herbs from above during the conveying process to dry them. However, the bottom of the herbs is difficult to reach by the airflow, and the herbs tend to pile up. This results in incomplete drying of the bottom of the herbs, poor air circulation between some herbs, and uneven drying effect, which in turn affects the overall drying quality and efficiency of the herbs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying mechanism for a medicinal herb washing machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as incomplete drying of the bottom of the medicinal herbs and poor air circulation between some of the herbs.

[0006] Preferably, the material feeding assembly includes a cylinder fixedly connected to the support frame, the movable end of the cylinder being inserted into the interior of the support frame and fixedly connected to a connecting plate, and a plurality of material feeding plates being fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting plate.

[0007] Preferably, the cross-section of the feeding plate is rhomboid, and the feeding plate is made of rubber.

[0008] Preferably, the longitudinal section of the flipping plate is triangular.

[0009] Preferably, the support frame has several ventilation slots on its front and rear sides.

[0010] Preferably, a guide frame is fixedly installed on the left side of the conveyor, and the guide frame is inclined from right to left.

[0011] Preferably, the front and rear sides of the turning plate are provided with baffles that are fixedly connected to the support frame.

[0012] Preferably, a slide table is fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the connecting plate, and a slide rail is slidably connected to the inner side of the slide table. The two ends of the slide rail are fixedly connected to the baffle.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. This utility model achieves the turning of medicinal materials on the conveyor belt by using a rotating shaft, connecting rod and turning plate in combination, avoiding the problem of incomplete drying caused by the accumulation of medicinal materials and the inability to turn them over, thereby improving the overall drying quality and efficiency of medicinal materials.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a drying mechanism for a medicinal herb washing machine. The drying mechanism includes a conveyor 1, a support frame 2 fixedly installed on the top of the conveyor 1, and drying fans 5 fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the support frame 2. The air outlet of the drying fans 5 extends into the interior of the support frame 2. A motor 3 is fixedly installed on the front side of the support frame 2. The output shaft of the motor 3 passes through the interior of the support frame 2 and is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 11 via a coupling. The other end of the rotating shaft 11 is connected to the support frame 2 via a bearing seat. Several connecting rods 12 are fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 11. A turning plate 9 is fixedly installed on the other end of the connecting rods 12. The longitudinal section of the turning plate 9 is triangular. A material-feeding assembly is provided on the left side of the turning plate 9. The material-feeding assembly includes a cylinder 4 fixedly connected to the support frame 2. The movable end of the cylinder 4 passes through the interior of the support frame 2 and is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 14. Several material-feeding plates 15 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the connecting plate 14. The cross-section of the material-feeding plates 15 is rhomboid and the material-feeding plates 15 are made of rubber.

[0024] Specifically, when the motor 3 starts, it can drive the rotating shaft 11 to rotate through the output shaft. The rotating shaft 11 can drive the turning plate 9 to rotate through the connecting rod 12. The rotation of the turning plate 9 can scoop up and turn the medicinal materials on the conveyor 1, thereby avoiding the problem of incomplete drying caused by the accumulation of medicinal materials and the inability to turn them over, thus improving the overall drying quality and efficiency of the medicinal materials.

[0025] When the cylinder 4 is started, it can drive the connecting plate 14 to move back and forth. The connecting plate 14 can drive the material-pushing plate 15 to move back and forth. The material-pushing plate 15 can push the medicinal materials back and forth, so that the medicinal materials can be evenly dispersed on the conveyor 1, and thus the medicinal materials can be fully contacted with the hot air.

[0026] In addition, the triangular cross-section of the turning plate 9 can better cut into the bottom of the medicinal materials, ensuring that each part of the medicinal materials can be fully turned over, avoiding the drying dead corners caused by the inability to turn the medicinal materials over.

[0027] The rhomboid cross-section rubber feeder 15 can reduce its obstruction effect on medicinal materials and avoid damage to them, thereby improving the quality of the finished medicinal materials.

[0028] It should be noted that the drying fan 5 in this application is prior art. The drying fan 5 forces the hot air generated by the heater (usually generated by electric or gas energy) through the air outlet into the support frame 2, so that the hot air can penetrate the medicinal material layer evenly, promote the evaporation of moisture inside the medicinal material, thereby removing the moisture in the medicinal material and preventing the medicinal material from becoming moldy.

[0029] Motor 3 is a servo motor 3 equipped with an encoder. The number of rotations and rotation angle of the output shaft of motor 3 are controllable and highly accurate. Those skilled in the art can set it according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0030] The cylinder 4 in this application is a power actuator that converts the pressure energy of compressed air into mechanical energy. It can be connected to an external air pipe and a solenoid valve and drives the piston to perform linear reciprocating motion by controlling the gas in and out. It can be used in conjunction with a magnetic switch, a proximity switch or a photoelectric switch to achieve precise control of the extension and retraction displacement of the piston rod of the cylinder 4. Those skilled in the art can set it according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0031] In this embodiment, several ventilation slots 6 are provided on the front and rear sides of the support frame 2.

[0032] Specifically, the ventilation slot 6 facilitates air circulation, avoids local heat accumulation, and ensures uniform drying of medicinal materials.

[0033] In this embodiment, a guide frame 7 is fixedly installed on the left side of the conveyor 1, and the guide frame 7 is inclined from right to left.

[0034] Specifically, the inclined guide frame 7 can collect and guide the dried medicinal materials, so that the medicinal materials can smoothly slide into the designated collection container or the next processing stage, thereby improving the continuity and efficiency of medicinal material processing.

[0035] In this embodiment, baffles 8 are provided on the front and rear sides of the flipping plate 9 and are fixedly connected to the support frame 2.

[0036] Specifically, the baffle 8 can prevent the medicinal materials from splashing off the conveyor 1 during the turning process, and also guides the medicinal materials so that they can be transported along a predetermined path.

[0037] In this embodiment, slides 13 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the connecting plate 14, and slide rails 10 are slidably connected to the inner side of the slides 13. The two ends of the slide rails 10 are fixedly connected to the baffles 8.

[0038] Specifically, the combined use of the slide table 13 and the slide rail 10 enables the connecting plate 14 to slide stably under the drive of the cylinder 4, thereby improving the operational stability of the entire feeding assembly.

[0039] The working principle of this utility model:

[0040] After being cleaned by the washing machine, the medicinal materials are conveyed to the conveyor 1. The conveyor 1 can transport the medicinal materials into the interior of the support frame 2. At the same time, the drying fan 5 forces the hot air generated by the heater into the interior of the support frame 2 through the air outlet, so that the hot air can penetrate the medicinal material layer evenly and promote the evaporation of moisture inside the medicinal materials.

[0041] During the drying process of medicinal materials, the motor 3 can drive the rotating shaft 11 to rotate through the output shaft. The rotating shaft 11 can drive the turning plate 9 to rotate through the connecting rod 12. The rotation of the turning plate 9 can scoop up and turn the medicinal materials on the conveyor 1, thereby avoiding the problem of incomplete drying caused by the accumulation of medicinal materials and the inability to turn them over.

[0042] After the medicinal materials are turned over, the cylinder 4 can drive the connecting plate 14 to move back and forth, the connecting plate 14 can drive the material-pushing plate 15 to move back and forth, and the material-pushing plate 15 can push the medicinal materials back and forth, so that the medicinal materials can be evenly dispersed on the conveyor 1, and thus the medicinal materials can be fully contacted with the hot air.

[0043] The dried medicinal materials can fall into the inside of the guide frame 7. The guide frame 7 can collect and guide the dried medicinal materials, so that the medicinal materials can smoothly slide into the designated collection container or the next processing stage, improving the continuity and efficiency of medicinal material processing.

[0044] Finally, the following points should be noted: In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connection, or internal connection between two components, or direct connection.
