Description

Technical Field

[0002] Chestnut, also known as chestnut, is a deciduous tree plant of the genus Castanea in the Fagaceae family, 15 to 20 meters tall. Its fruit is called chestnut, which is brown and covered with a thorn ball. The academic name of the thorn ball is chestnut shrub.

A gap is arranged between the side of the partition 22 and the inner wall of the preservation box 3. The partition 22 can achieve sealed preservation of the chestnuts in the preservation box 3 by absorbing the condensed water vapor in the air. In order to prevent the partition 22 from being unable to move, the frost that affects the sliding of the partition 22 is melted by the arrangement of the heating ring 24.

[0042] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0043] Put the chestnuts into the feeding basket 6, and pull the slide plate 7 out of the freezing box 1, start the water pump 8, and spray the sterile water at the bottom of the freezing box 1 into the feeding basket 6. The surface of the chestnuts will be contaminated with a layer of water, and under the action of the cooling fan 18, a layer of ice crystals will be formed very quickly, that is, the chestnuts are frozen and wrapped. When the chestnut wrapping is completed, turn off the water pump 8, and slide the slide plate 7 back into the freezing box 1 to separate the upper and lower chambers of the freezing box 1.

[0044] The motor 15 is started to drive the sliding shaft 11 to rotate. The sliding shaft 11 is screwed with the mounting frame 10, so that it can slide toward the mounting frame 10 while rotating. The sliding sleeve 14 is always sleeved on the outer side of the sliding shaft 11 and does not slide out. The rotation of the sliding shaft 11 drives the reel 12 to rotate, and the reel 13 is wound up, which pulls up one end of the feeding basket 6. The chestnuts in the feeding basket 6 will continuously enter the storage box 3 from the outlet hole 2. In order to improve the convenience of chestnut introduction, a slope is provided on one side of the feeding basket 6 to facilitate the movement of the chestnuts during the pouring process.

[0045] When the chestnuts enter the preservation box 3, the telescopic member 21 is activated to drive the partition 22 to be pressed down, so that the chestnuts are confined in the closed space formed by the partition 22 and the bottom of the preservation box 3, which reduces the evaporation of water and is conducive to the preservation of the chestnuts.

[0046] The above are only preferred specific implementations of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
