Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of agricultural product processing, and in particular to a drying device for Trichosanthes kirilowii. Background Technology

Among these, the Trichosanthes kirilowii placement device is an important piece of equipment required for drying.
[0003] The part of Trichosanthes kirilowii that needs to be dried is mainly its spherical outer skin. During the drying process, the spherical outer skin is usually cut into crescent shapes. Compared with ordinary root-shaped, seed-shaped, and sliced products, crescent-shaped Trichosanthes kirilowii is easily blown away by the circulating hot air during the drying process and moves away from the designated drying position. This results in a longer drying time and a lower drying effect. Utility Model Content

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0027] This application provides a Trichosanthes kirilowii drying device, which includes a plurality of drying units 100, which are linearly stacked in sequence to form the Trichosanthes kirilowii drying device;
[0028] The drying unit 100 includes a frame 110, on which a support plate 120 and a partition plate 130 are installed in the middle. There is a gas flow channel 140 between the support plate 120 and the partition plate 130 for gas to pass through. In the use state or the assembly state, the support plate 120 is on top of the partition plate 130, and the side of the support plate 120 away from the partition plate 130 is used to place the gourd peel.
[0029] The support plate 120 has several through holes 121. The through holes 121 have several spikes 122 at the opening edge of the support plate 120 away from the partition plate 130. The ends of the spikes 122 are away from the through holes 121. The partition plate 130 has several vent holes 131. A portion of the partition plate 130 inside the vent holes 131 is bent away from the support plate 120 to form a stop piece 132. The area of the support plate 120 away from the partition plate 130 is connected to the gas flow channel 140 through the through holes 121. The area of the partition plate 130 away from the support plate 120 is connected to the gas flow channel 140 through the vent holes 131.
[0030] The frame 110 has a first connecting end 111 and a second connecting end 112 that are far apart from each other. The first connecting end 111 and the second connecting end 112 are detachably connected. In the assembled state, the first connecting end 111 of one drying unit 100 can be connected to the second connecting end 112 of another drying unit 100 to form a stack of drying units 100. The partition plate 130 of the top drying unit 100 and the support plate 120 of the bottom drying unit 100 of two adjacent drying units 100 form a placement area for placing Trichosanthes peel.
[0031] The following section will provide further details based on specific usage scenarios.
[0032] In the specific application scenario of this application embodiment, for ease of description, the application scenario is limited to the case where only two drying units 100 are stacked to form a drying device. Of course, the drying device formed by stacking more sets of drying units 100 is still applicable.
[0033] In use, the operator stacks several drying units 100 to form a complete Trichosanthes kirilowii drying device. Then, the operator places the cut crescent-shaped Trichosanthes kirilowii peels onto the drying device. During this process, there are no requirements for the specific placement position or angle of the Trichosanthes kirilowii peels.
[0034] It should be understood that during the drying process of Trichosanthes kirilowii peel, the heated and regulated circulating hot airflow passes through the drying device and several Trichosanthes kirilowii peels in a direction that is basically parallel to the airflow direction of the support plate 120.
[0035] After the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel is placed on the support plate 120, there are generally two main distribution states of the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel. First, the outer side of the crescent-shaped Trichosanthes kirilowii peel is in contact with the support plate 120. When an external airflow blows towards the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel, the peel tends to sway. Second, the inner side of the crescent-shaped Trichosanthes kirilowii peel faces the support plate 120 and partially contacts it. When the external airflow is strong, the peel tends to move horizontally along the direction of the airflow on the support plate 120.
[0036] When placing the drying device, the operator should point the end of the stop plate 132 away from the partition plate 130 towards the direction of the incoming airflow. That is, the direction of the stop plate 132 away from the partition plate 130 is opposite to the direction of the airflow blowing towards the drying device. When the hot airflow blows towards the drying device, the crescent-shaped Trichosanthes kirilowii peel tends to move and roll on the support plate 120. After the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel moves, it will touch the spikes 122 on the edge of the through hole 121 of the support plate 120. Several spikes 122 touch the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel and form a locking mechanism, thereby preventing the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel from moving further and maintaining the relative position of the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel on the support plate 120. This reduces the stacking of Trichosanthes kirilowii peel and improves the drying effect and drying efficiency.
[0037] When the outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii tumbles, the end of the stop plate 132 of the partition plate 130 of the other drying unit 100 at the top of the support plate 120 will abut against the outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii, preventing the outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii from tumbling further, thereby reducing the stacking of the outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii, and improving the drying effect and drying efficiency.
[0038] The coordinated arrangement of the support plate 120 and the partition plate 130, along with their accessories, reduces the movement and stacking of the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel. In the specific application scenario of this application, there is an unobstructed gas flow channel 140 between the support plate 120 and the partition plate 130. When hot air flows in the gas flow channel 140, the air on the support plate 120 of the upper drying unit 100 and the lower drying unit 100 tends to enter the gas flow channel 140 through the vent holes 131 and the through holes 121, thereby forming a local airflow near the gas flow channel 140. This increases the number of times the hot air passes between the Trichosanthes kirilowii peels, improving the drying effect and drying efficiency.
[0039] In summary, the embodiments of this application reduce the movement and stacking of the Trichosanthes kirilowii peel during the drying process by setting the spikes 122 and the stop plate 132 to prevent the movement of the peel. Furthermore, the setting of the gas flow channel 140 increases the time and frequency of contact between the heat flow and the peel, thereby improving the drying effect and efficiency.
[0040] Two adjacent drying units 100 are fixed by connecting the first connecting end 111 and the second connecting end 112 on the frame 110. In some possible implementations of this application, the first connecting end 111 is located on the side of the support plate 120 away from the partition plate 130, and an insertion hole 113 is provided on the end face of the first connecting end 111. The second connecting end 112 is located on the side of the partition plate 130 away from the support plate 120, and a plug-in 114 is fixedly connected to the end face of the second connecting end 112. In the assembled state, the plug-in 114 of the top drying unit 100 is inserted into the insertion hole 113 of the bottom drying unit 100. The support plates 120 of several drying units 100 are parallel to each other, and the connection method is simple and easy to operate.
[0041] After being punched, a standard flat sheet is formed into a partition plate 130 with ventilation holes 131. During the punching process, part of the partition plate 130 that was originally inside the ventilation holes 131 is bent downward to form a stop piece 132. In some possible implementations of this application embodiment, similarly, after the standard flat sheet is punched, a tapping tool can be used to tap the through hole 121 in the support plate 120. After the screw of the tapping tool enters the through hole 121, the tapping tool is lifted upward, causing the inner wall of the through hole 121 to deform. Part of the tissue on the inner wall of the through hole 121 flows upward and accumulates at the edge of the opening of the through hole 121. As the tapping tool continues to pull out, some of the tissue becomes larger burrs to form spiky bodies 122. The formation of the pile 123 can increase the height of the engagement between the spiky bodies 122 and the outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii, thereby further reducing the movement range of the outer skin. At the same time, the setting of the pile 123 can also block the outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii, reducing the movement and stacking of the outer skin during the drying process, thus improving the drying effect and drying efficiency. In particular, the central axis of the spiky body 122 can form an acute angle with the surface of the bearing plate 120, thereby improving the stability of the engagement between the spiky body 122 and the outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii.
[0042] In some possible implementations of the embodiments of this application, the support plate 120 is also provided with a plurality of limiting holes 124. The plurality of limiting holes 124 and a plurality of through holes 121 on the support plate 120 are distributed alternately. In the aforementioned manufacturing process of the support plate 120, the limiting holes 124 can be understood as holes on the support plate 120 that have not been tapped. There are no barbs 122 outside the limiting holes 124. The setting of the limiting holes 124 not only improves the heat flow of the support plate 120, but also allows a portion of the crescent-shaped outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii to easily enter from both ends, thereby restricting the relative position of the outer skin of the Trichosanthes kirilowii and improving the drying effect and drying efficiency.
[0043] In some possible implementations of this application, the partition plate 130 is inclined to the support plate 120, and the direction of the angle opening formed by the partition plate 130 and the support plate 120 is opposite to the direction of the angle opening formed by the stop plate 132 and the partition plate 130. From the perspective of the hot air flow direction, the height of the placement area gradually decreases along the aforementioned flow direction, which further reduces the phenomenon of Trichosanthes kirilowii peel stacking. At the same time, the height of the gas flow channel 140 gradually increases along the aforementioned flow direction, which makes the top and bottom of the stacked Trichosanthes kirilowii peel have more hot air, thus improving the drying effect and drying efficiency of the stacked part.
[0044] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
