Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aging and storage technology of dried tangerine peel, and in particular to a device for aging and storing dried tangerine peel. Background Technology

[0002] The benefits of aging Huajuhong (a type of tangerine peel) mainly include enhancing its medicinal efficacy, reducing its dryness, improving its taste, and increasing its quality and economic value. However, it needs to be stored under appropriate conditions for at least one year or even more than five years. If the storage environment is not suitable, Huajuhong may rot and be damaged.

[0003] Existing storage methods mostly involve using containers such as wooden barrels, cloth bags, and bamboo baskets to ensure that the Citrus reticulata peel meets the basic storage requirements. The method usually involves placing the Citrus reticulata peel into the container and using breathable fillers such as straw to reduce contact between the peels. Quicklime, peppercorns, and specially made bamboo charcoal are also placed inside the container. However, this method can easily lead to insufficient air contact for the Citrus reticulata peel. In fact, the Citrus reticulata peel at the bottom may gradually become sealed during the aging process, resulting in different aging effects for Citrus reticulata peel in different locations within the same container. It may even lead to rotting and mold growth due to insufficient air contact and moisture removal, thus contaminating all the Citrus reticulata peel in the container. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem that the existing storage methods used for aging tangerine peel are difficult to ensure that all tangerine peel in the same container experiences the same aging environment. During long-term storage, the tangerine peel at the bottom may gradually become moldy due to the gradual changes in the storage environment, which will gradually affect all the tangerine peel in the container.

[0005] To solve the existing technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a storage device for aging and storing tangerine peel, including a storage barrel, a cover is provided on the top of the storage barrel, a support rod is provided on the top of the cover, a shielding cover is connected to the cover through the support rod, a through pipe is provided inside the cover, a number of corrugated storage trays are evenly distributed axially on the surface of the through pipe, a perforation is opened on the surface of the through pipe between every two corrugated storage trays, the corrugated storage trays are divided into raised parts and recessed parts, wherein the recessed parts are storage parts, the raised parts are dividing parts, and a connecting hole is opened at the dividing part of the corrugated storage trays.

[0006] Furthermore, the wave storage trays are arranged in an alternating manner, with the wavy protrusions and recesses of every two adjacent wave storage trays aligned, so that the recesses of the wave storage trays have the maximum storage space.

[0007] Furthermore, the surface of the tube has several perforations located between the two wave storage trays, and each perforation is aligned with the recessed portion of the wave storage tray near the bottom of the perforation, ensuring that the air supplied by the perforations can directly contact the orange-red substance located on the surface of the wave storage tray.

[0008] Furthermore, a surrounding plate is provided at the edge of the wave storage tray. The surrounding plate can prevent the orange peel from falling outward and prevent the orange peel from sticking to the inner wall of the storage tank, thus ensuring that the orange peel is fully exposed to the air to the maximum extent.

[0009] Furthermore, the through-pipe communicates with the outside through the gap between the cap and the shielding cover, and a bottom plate is provided at the bottom of the through-pipe to seal the through-pipe. The diameter of the bottom plate is smaller than the inner diameter of the storage tank, ensuring that outside air can directly enter the through-pipe through the gap between the cap and the shielding cover due to the presence of the support rod.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the storage tank is provided with a protrusion in a triangular shape, and the bottom plate of the pipe abuts against the protrusion, leaving a gap between the bottom plate of the pipe and the storage tank.

[0011] Furthermore, the gap between the bottom plate of the tube and the storage bucket is filled with insect repellent and desiccant such as Sichuan pepper, desiccant and humectant, and will not come into direct contact with the tangerine peel.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. The through-pipe connects to the outside through the gap between the cap and the shielding cover. The bottom of the through-pipe is equipped with a base plate that seals the through-pipe. The diameter of the base plate is smaller than the inner diameter of the storage tank. This ensures that outside air can directly enter the through-pipe through the gap between the cap and the shielding cover due to the support rod. The air is then transmitted to the corrugated storage trays through the perforations on the surface of the through-pipe, directly contacting the tangerine peel and ensuring that each tangerine peel enjoys the same storage conditions.

[0014] 2. The bottom of the storage bucket is set with a raised section in a triangular shape. The bottom plate of the pipe abuts against the raised section, leaving a gap between the bottom plate of the pipe and the storage bucket. The gap is filled with insect repellent and moisture-proofing agents such as peppercorns, desiccants, and humectants, and will not directly contact the tangerine peel, thus avoiding contamination of the tangerine peel during the aging process.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0021] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the aging and storage device for Citrus reticulata includes a storage tank 1. The top of the storage tank 1 is equipped with a cover 2, and the top of the cover 2 is equipped with a support rod 3. The cover 2 is connected to a shielding cover 4 through the support rod 3. The top of the shielding cover 4 is equipped with a handle for easy handling by the operator. A through-tube 5 is installed inside the cover 2. The through-tube 5 passes through the cover 2 and communicates with the outside through the gap between the cover 2 and the shielding cover 4. The bottom of the through-tube 5 is equipped with a bottom plate that seals the through-tube 5. The diameter of the bottom plate is smaller than the inner diameter of the storage tank 1, ensuring that outside air can directly enter the through-tube 5 through the gap between the cover 2 and the shielding cover 4 due to the support rod 3. The bottom of the storage tank 1 is provided with a protrusion in a triangular shape. The bottom plate of the through-tube 5 abuts against the protrusion, leaving a gap between the bottom plate of the through-tube 5 and the storage tank 1. The gap between the bottom plate of the through-tube 5 and the storage tank 1 is filled with insect repellent and moisture-proofing agents such as pepper, desiccant, and humectant, and will not directly contact the Citrus reticulata.

[0022] A number of corrugated storage trays 6 are evenly distributed axially on the surface of the tube 5. The corrugated storage trays 6 are staggered, and the corrugated protrusions and concave parts of every two adjacent corrugated storage trays 6 are aligned, so that the concave parts of the corrugated storage trays 6 have the maximum storage space. A baffle is provided at the edge of the corrugated storage trays 6. The baffle can prevent the citrus from falling outward and prevent the citrus from sticking to the inner wall of the storage tank 1, so as to maximize the exposure of the citrus to the air.

[0023] The wave storage tray 6 is divided into a raised part and a recessed part. The recessed part is the storage part, and the raised part is the partition part. A connecting hole 8 is opened at the partition part of the wave storage tray 6. A perforation 7 is opened on the surface of the tube 5 between every two wave storage trays 6. There are several perforations 7 on the surface of the tube 5 between two wave storage trays 6. Each perforation 7 is aligned with the recessed part of the wave storage tray 6 near the bottom of the perforation 7, ensuring that the air delivered by the perforation 7 can directly contact the orange-red on the surface of the wave storage tray 6.

[0024] Working principle description: First, the operator can separate the storage bucket 1 from the rest of the structure through the top handle of the cover 4. During this process, the cover 4 drives the sealing cover 2 through the support rod 3. At the same time, the sealing cover 2 drives the through pipe 5 and the corrugated storage tray 6 set on the surface of the through pipe 5. After the corrugated storage tray 6 leaves the storage bucket 1, the operator can place the citrus on the storage part surface of the corrugated storage tray 6 and ensure the stability of the citrus by the enclosure. Then, the operator can put the required insect repellent and desiccant into the storage bucket 1.

[0025] After all the tangerine peel has been placed, the operator restores the storage bucket 1 to the state of covering the rest of the structure. At this time, outside air can enter the connecting pipe 5 through the gap between the sealing cap 2 and the shielding cap 4. The air then enters the interior of the wave storage bucket 1 through the perforations 7 on the surface of the connecting pipe 5 and comes into contact with the tangerine peel on the surface of the wave storage tray 6. In addition, the insect repellent and desiccant previously added by the operator can continue to act upward along the connecting hole 8 to ensure that the internal environment of the storage bucket 1 can maintain suitable aging conditions for the tangerine peel for a long time.

[0026] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
