Problems solved by technology

Experiments have proved that this method of separating the freeze-drying chamber into a vacuum chamber and an atmospheric pressure microwave chamber by using wave-transparent materials reduces the probability of discharge to a certain extent. One side of the freeze-drying chamber is a metal conduction plate, two sides are metal plates, and one side is a wave-transparent material. In this way, the microwave is reflected by the three metal chamber walls in the freeze-drying chamber in a vacuum environment, causing the microwave field to be uneven. Uneven drying, low yield and poor quality
At the same time, the feed belt and return belt of the belt conveyor system are in the same freeze-drying chamber, which increases the difficulty and cost of manufacturing, high failure rate in operation, and difficult implementation

Abstract

A continuous microwave freeze-drying devices comprises a vacuum water-trapping system (1), a microwave shield plate (2), a microwave bin (6) and a freeze-drying bin (5) located in the microwave bin (6), wherein the treeze-drying bin (5) comprises an upper bin opening, a left bin wall, a right bin wall and a bottom bin wall, and the left, right and bottom bin walls are all made from nonmetal wave transmitting materials, such as polyrfluortetrethylene, polyethylene, polypropylene or quartz glass. The device solves the technical problem of freeze-drying failure caused by glow discharge of microwave under freeze-drying environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of freeze-drying equipment, in particular to a continuous freeze-drying device using microwaves as a heat source. Background technique [0002] Freeze-drying technology is a method of freezing the water-containing material first, and then directly converting the moisture in the material from the solid phase to the gas phase in a high vacuum environment to obtain a dry product, also known as sublimation drying. The traditional freeze-drying method generally uses a hot plate or an infrared radiation plate to provide sublimation heat, which is widely used in food, medicine, new material processing and other fields, but its drying rate is low, the cycle is long, the equipment is complicated, the manufacturing cost is high, and the power consumption is high. Huge, seriously restricting the further development of freeze-drying technology. [0003] Microwave freeze-drying is a new technology that combines high...
