[0041] A clam dehydration device, see Figure 1-Figure 7, including a machine base 1, a belt conveyor assembly 2 for conveying clam meat is arranged in the machine base 1, the belt conveyor assembly 2 includes two left and right connecting shafts 21 rotatably connected in the machine base 1, two front and rear conveyor belts 22 are sleeved between the two connecting shafts 21 through a pulley, and conveyor rollers 23 are evenly spaced along the movement trajectory between the two conveyor belts 22. The gap between two adjacent conveyor rollers 23 is less than 1 cm, so as to prevent the clam meat from falling from the gap between the conveyor rollers 23 and promote the smooth discharge of moisture on the surface of the clam meat. A servo motor is installed on the left rear side of the machine base 1. The motor 24, the output shaft of the servo motor 24 is connected to the rear end of the left connecting shaft 21, and the servo motor 24 can drive the left connecting shaft 21 to rotate, so that the conveyor belt 22 drives the conveyor roller 23 to rotate to convey the clam meat to the right. A hot air dryer 3 is installed on the top right side of the base 1 (the number of hot air dryers 3 can be configured according to actual needs), and a material guide frame 4 is connected to the top left side of the base 1. The bottom of the material guide frame 4 is a left-high and right-low inclined design, which is convenient for the clam meat to slide naturally to the right under the action of gravity. The top of the material guide frame 4 is a flat design. A lower hopper 5 is installed on the left side of the top of the material guide frame 4, and a partition plate 8 is connected to the lower right side of the material guide frame 4. The partition plate 8 is located on the upper side of the conveying roller 23 and contacts therewith. The partition plate 8 is used to separate the conveying roller 23 into two independent conveying areas in front and behind. A screen 6 is installed in the material guide frame 4 in an inclined manner with the left side higher and the right side lower, so that the clam meat can slide to the right naturally under the action of gravity. An upper and lower material guide plate 7 is connected to the material guide frame 4. The two material guide plates 7 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the screen 6, and are used to guide the clam meat of different sizes after being screened by the screen 6 to the conveying roller 2 respectively. 3, two independent front and rear conveying areas, the lower right side of the guide frame 4 is symmetrically connected to the front and rear with the partition plate 8 as the center. The baffle 9 is located on the outside of the conveyor belt 22 to block the clam meat and prevent the clam meat from moving out to the conveying area of ​​the conveying roller 23.

[0042] See also Figure 5The paving mechanism includes a rotating shaft 101 rotatably connected between the two baffles 9, the rotating shaft 101 passes through the partition plate 8, and two front and rear spiral blades 102 are connected to the rotating shaft 101. The two spiral blades 102 are installed opposite to each other. The two spiral blades 102 are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the partition plate 8. The spiral blade 102 is located on the upper side of the conveying roller 23, and the gap between the spiral blade 102 and the conveying roller 23 can only accommodate the bottom layer of clam meat to pass through, ensuring that the clam meat can be evenly distributed and avoiding the accumulation or overlapping of the clam meat during transportation. The rotating shaft 101 is connected to the connecting shaft 21 on the left side through a belt transmission component I103. The belt transmission component I103 consists of two pulleys and a belt. The two pulleys are respectively connected to the rotating shaft 101 and the connecting shaft 21 on the left side, and the belt is sleeved between the two pulleys.

[0043] See also Figure 6 The intermittent material blocking mechanism includes a material blocking plate 111, a slotted plate 112, a driving motor 113, a disc 114 and a lever 115. A slide groove is provided in the middle of the top of the material guide frame 4, and a material blocking plate 111 that moves up and down is slidably connected in the slide groove. The material blocking plate 111 is in a T-shape, and the bottom of the material blocking plate 111 extends into the material guide frame 4 and contacts the screen 6. The material blocking plate 111 is located on the right side of the lower hopper 5 and on the left side of the upper material guide plate 7. The upper front part of the material blocking plate 111 is connected with a slotted plate 112, and the slotted plate 112 is located at the material guide frame 4. On the outside of the frame 4, a driving motor 113 is installed on the right front side of the top of the material guide frame 4, and the driving motor 113 is located on the right side of the material baffle plate 111. A disc 114 is connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 113, and a lever 115 is connected to the eccentric position of the front side of the disc 114. The lever 115 is located in the groove of the slotted plate 112. Two front and rear guide rods are connected to the upper part of the material guide frame 4. The front guide rod penetrates the slotted plate 112 to provide guidance for the slotted plate 112, and the rear guide rod penetrates the material baffle plate 111 to provide guidance for the material baffle plate 111.

[0044] See also Figure 2 and Figure 7 The shaping mechanism includes a cover body 151 connected to the top of the machine base 1, the cover body 151 is located between the baffle 9 and the hot air dryer 3, the lower part of the cover body 151 is rotatably connected with a pressure roller 152 evenly spaced from left to right, the pressure roller 152 passes through the partition plate 8 and rotates with the partition plate 8, a reduction motor 153 is installed on the top of the machine base 1, the reduction motor 153 is located on the front side of the cover body 151, the output shaft of the reduction motor 153 is connected to the leftmost pressure roller 152, and the two adjacent pressure rollers 152 are connected through the belt drive component III 154. The belt drive component III 154 consists of two pulleys and a belt. The two pulleys are respectively connected to the front sides of the two adjacent pressure rollers 152, and the belt is sleeved between the two pulleys.

[0045] The clam meat is poured into the lower hopper 5 and dropped onto the inclined screen 6 through the lower hopper 5. The clam meat will slide to the right under the action of gravity and be blocked by the blocking plate 111. The driving motor 113 is controlled to drive the disc 114 to drive the lever 115 to rotate. As the lever 115 rotates, it can slide in the groove of the slotted plate 112 and push the slotted plate 112 to move up and down. The slotted plate 112 moves up and down and drives the blocking plate 111 to move up and down. After the blocking plate 111 moves up and disengages from the screen 6, it no longer blocks the clam meat, so that the clam meat on the screen 6 can slide freely to the right. After the blocking plate 111 moves down and contacts the screen 6, it blocks the clam meat again, thereby realizing intermittent delivery of the clam meat and avoiding accumulation and overlapping due to excessive delivery of the clam meat. In the process of the clam meat sliding to the right along the inclined screen 6, the clam meat larger than the mesh size of the screen 6 will be intercepted by the screen 6 and guided to the front conveying area of ​​the belt conveyor assembly 2 through the upper guide plate 7; while the clam meat smaller than the mesh size of the screen 6 will directly pass through the mesh and fall to the inner bottom of the guide frame 4, and be guided to the rear conveying area of ​​the belt conveyor assembly 2 through the lower guide plate 7, thereby realizing the size classification of the clam meat, avoiding the mixing and dehydration of clam meat of different sizes, and thus improving the quality consistency of the product. The belt conveyor assembly 2 can deliver the clam meat on it to the right into the hot air dryer 3 for dehydration (the hot air dryer 3 is a prior art and will not be described in detail here), and deliver the clam meat dehydrated to a certain extent from the hot air dryer 3 to the right. The connection shaft 21 on the left side rotates through the belt transmission assembly I103 to drive the rotating shaft 101 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating shaft 101 drives the spiral blades 102 to rotate. Since the two spiral blades 102 are installed opposite to each other, the rotation of the two spiral blades 102 can push the clam meat falling on the conveying roller 23 away from the partition plate 8, thereby achieving uniform dispersion of the clam meat, avoiding accumulation and overlapping of the clam meat, and increasing the contact area between the clam meat and the hot air, thereby improving the dehydration efficiency and quality of the clam meat. The reduction motor 153 is controlled to drive the pressure rollers 152 connected thereto to rotate. All the pressure rollers 152 can be rotated through the belt drive assembly III 154. The rotation of the pressure rollers 152 cooperates with the conveying rollers 23 to roll the clam meat to shape the screened clam meat so that the shape of the clam meat is more uniform, thereby realizing shaping first and then dehydration. By shaping first and then dehydrating, the shape of the dehydrated clam meat can be made more uniform and even, thereby improving the quality of the product.

[0046] See also Figure 7-10The baffle plate 111 and the slotted plate 112 are both provided with a material-diverting mechanism, which includes a lifting frame 121, a material-diverting plate 122, a fixing plate 123 and a push rod Ⅰ125. The upper rear side of the baffle plate 111 and the front side of the slotted plate 112 are both connected with the lifting frame 121. The right side of the lifting frame 121 is slidably connected with left and right material-diverting plates 122 that can be separated from each other through a guide rod. The front material-diverting plate 122 is located on the front side of the partition plate 8, and the rear material-diverting plate 122 is located on the rear side of the partition plate 8. The material-diverting plate 122 is located between the spiral blade 102 and Between the cover body 151, the thickness of the lower part of the material stripping plate 122 gradually decreases from top to bottom, so as to facilitate insertion between adjacent clam meat to separate the clam meat. The tops of the two baffles 9 are connected to a fixed plate 123, and the fixed plate 123 is provided with two left and right guide grooves 124. Push rods I125 are slidably connected in the four guide grooves 124. The four push rods I125 correspond to the four material stripping plates 122 one by one. The push rods I125 are fixedly connected to the corresponding material stripping plates 122. The two guide grooves 124 on the fixed plate 123 are arranged in an inverted figure eight shape.

[0047] When the baffle plate 111 and the slotted plate 112 move upward, the material shifting plate 122 is driven upward by the lifting frame 121, and the upward movement of the material shifting plate 122 drives the push rod Ⅰ125 to move upward. Under the guiding action of the two guide grooves 124 arranged in an inverted eight-shaped shape on the fixed plate 123, the push rod Ⅰ125 on the left and right sides move away from each other while moving upward, so that the material shifting plates 122 on the left and right sides move away from each other while moving upward. The material shifting plates 122 on the left and right sides move away from each other and can shift the adjacent clam meat apart to achieve the dispersion of the clam meat, so that the clam meat is separated by a certain interval, further avoiding the accumulation and overlapping of the clam meat, and further increasing the contact area between the clam meat and the hot air, thereby further improving the dehydration efficiency and quality of the clam meat. After the material stripping plate 122 moves up, it is separated from the clam meat, and the separated clam meat is sent to the right by the belt conveyor assembly 2 into the hot air dryer 3 for dehydration. When the material blocking plate 111 and the slotted plate 112 move down, the material stripping plate 122 is driven downward by the lifting frame 121, and the downward movement of the material stripping plate 122 drives the push rod I 125 to move downward. Under the guiding action of the two guide grooves 124 arranged in an inverted eight-shaped shape on the fixed plate 123, the push rods I 125 on the left and right sides move downward and approach each other, so that the material stripping plates 122 on the left and right sides move downward and approach each other, and the material stripping plates 122 on the left and right sides move downward and approach each other so that they can be inserted between adjacent clam meat to separate the clam meat.

[0048] See also Fig.11The left side of the machine base 1 is rotatably connected with a brush roller 131, which is in contact with the conveyor belt 22 and the conveyor roller 23. The brush roller 131 is connected to the connecting shaft 21 on the left side through a belt transmission component II 132. The belt transmission component II 132 consists of two pulleys and a belt. The two pulleys are respectively connected to the brush roller 131 and the connecting shaft 21 on the left side, and the belt is sleeved between the two pulleys.

[0049] The connection shaft 21 on the left side rotates to drive the brush roller 131 to rotate through the belt drive component II 132. The rotation of the brush roller 131 can remove impurities adhering to the conveyor belt 22 and the conveyor roller 23, so that the conveyor belt 22 and the conveyor roller 23 remain clean, thereby effectively reducing the problem of reduced conveying efficiency caused by the accumulation of impurities, and can keep the clams clean during the conveying process, which helps to improve the conveying efficiency and maintain good sanitary conditions.

[0050] See also Fig.12 A blocking mechanism is provided in the material guide frame 4, and the blocking mechanism includes a blocking plate 141, a slotted inclined plate 142 and a push rod II 143. Two guide rods are symmetrically connected to the upper part of the left inner wall of the material guide frame 4. The blocking plate 141 is slidably connected to the guide rod and can move left and right. The blocking plate 141 is located on the upper side of the screen 6 and on the left side of the material baffle plate 111. Two slotted inclined plates 142 are symmetrically connected to the left side of the material baffle plate 111. Push rods II 143 are connected to the front and rear sides of the material baffle plate 111, and the two push rods II 143 are respectively located in the grooves of the two slotted inclined plates 142.

[0051] The blocking plate 111 moves up and disengages from the screen 6 to release the clams, and drives the slotted inclined plate 142 to move up. The slotted inclined plate 142 moves up and pushes the push rod II 143 to move leftward, thereby causing the blocking plate 141 to move leftward. After the blocking plate 141 moves leftward, the gap between the blocking plate 141 and the screen 6 is reduced. At this time, the gap between the blocking plate 141 and the screen 6 can only allow the clams on the lowest layer of the screen 6 to pass through, while the clams on the upper layer are blocked by the blocking plate 141, which prevents the clams on the upper layer from sliding directly onto the conveying roller 23 without being screened by the screen 6 after the blocking plate 111 moves up, thereby ensuring that the clams are effectively screened by the screen 6 to improve the screening effect of classifying the clam meat by size. When the baffle plate 111 moves downward and contacts the screen 6 to block the clams, it drives the slotted inclined plate 142 to move downward. The slotted inclined plate 142 moves downward and pushes the push rod II 143 to move rightward, thereby causing the blocking plate 141 to move rightward. After the blocking plate 141 moves rightward, the gap between the blocking plate 141 and the screen 6 increases. At this time, the clams on the upper layer can slide to the lower right and contact the baffle plate 111 and be blocked by the baffle plate 111.

[0052] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4The inlet and outlet of the hot air dryer 3 are both connected with insulation curtains 31 from front to back. The insulation curtains 31 can effectively prevent the hot air inside the hot air dryer 3 from being lost to the external environment, so as to maintain the temperature inside the hot air dryer 3 stable, thereby improving the dehydration efficiency and energy utilization rate. The insulation curtains 31 are made of glass fiber cloth.
