Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of sesame drying equipment technology, and more particularly to an airflow drying device for sesame processing. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the common processing machinery for drying sesame seeds usually involves placing the sesame seeds on a conveyor belt. During the conveying process, hot air is used to dry the sesame seeds, removing their moisture and making them crisper. However, when transported by conveyor belt, the sesame seeds tend to pile up, preventing the sesame seeds in the center from directly contacting the airflow. This results in inconsistent drying effects between the sesame seeds in the middle and those on the outside. A single drying cycle cannot meet the requirements, necessitating multiple processing cycles, which reduces production efficiency and affects the quality of the finished product. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to address the above-mentioned technical deficiencies by providing an airflow drying device for sesame processing. By circulating and stirring the sesame seeds and conveying them sequentially, and by utilizing the structural design of the drying tank, in conjunction with the jetting component, stirring component and fastening component to form a circulating blowing drying, the drying quality of sesame seeds is greatly improved, the number of processing times is reduced and the work efficiency is increased.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention includes:
[0005] The machine casing has multiple drying tanks arranged sequentially along the feeding direction of the machine casing, and each drying tank has a heat source chamber below it. The middle of the drying tank is equipped with a height-adjustable jet component, which can generate horizontal airflow to both sides. A stirring component and a fastening component are arranged sequentially above the drying tank.
[0006] Preferably, the drying tank has a groove in the middle that communicates with the heat source cavity, and the cross-section of the drying tank is semi-circular.
[0007] Preferably, one end of the jetting component is provided with an air inlet, and multiple air outlets are symmetrically provided on both sides above the jetting component, and the upper surface of the jetting component is adapted to the surface shape of the drying tank.
[0008] Preferably, an air inlet pipe is provided in front of the heat source cavity on the chassis, and the position of the air inlet pipe is higher than the position of the air inlet when it is not in operation.
[0009] Preferably, a first hydraulic cylinder is provided below the jet component.
[0010] Preferably, the mixing assembly includes a pair of mounting plates and a rotating shaft; a second hydraulic cylinder connected to the housing is provided above the mounting plate; both ends of the rotating shaft are respectively connected to the mounting plate as rotating shafts, and a mixing plate and a cleaning plate are respectively provided on the rotating shaft.
[0011] Preferably, the stirring plate includes a left plate and a right plate; there is a gap between the left plate and the right plate; the left plate has a plurality of first notches at equal intervals; the right plate has a plurality of second notches at equal intervals, and the width of the second notches is smaller than the width of the first notches.
[0012] Preferably, the mounting plate is T-shaped, and both ends of the rotating shaft are provided with pulleys. The mounting plate is provided with a motor connected to the pulleys.
[0013] Preferably, the fastening assembly includes a support plate and covers mounted on the support plate at equal intervals; a third hydraulic cylinder connected to the chassis is provided above the support plate; the lower part of the cover is semi-circular and the upper part has a rectangular channel, and the front and rear of the cover are provided with displacement grooves.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0015] 1. First, the sesame seeds are roasted at high temperature and stirred during the roasting process, which effectively ensures the drying efficiency of the sesame seeds and avoids the situation of different humidity caused by traditional piling. At the same time, the spray nozzle is used to circulate and blow the sesame seeds to further improve the drying effect. No multiple processing is required, which effectively improves work efficiency.
[0016] 2. By raising the stirring plate vertically and extending the spray nozzle, the drying tank is divided into two chambers, left and right. At the same time, the high-temperature airflow generated by the spray nozzle blows the sesame seeds to tumble back and forth in the drying tank, which effectively improves the drying efficiency, ensures the consistency of sesame moisture content, and improves the quality of the finished product.
[0017] 3. This technical solution has a compact structure, and each part can process sesame seeds separately. By processing in batches, the drying efficiency is guaranteed. At the same time, compared with the traditional conveyor belt structure, it avoids the occurrence of accumulation. Furthermore, it uses the drying trough to transfer heat, forming a roasting process, and then uses airflow to dry, thus ensuring the quality of the finished product. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of the invention.
[0029] Specific implementation method one: Combining Figure 1-9 As shown, the airflow drying device for sesame processing includes: a housing 1, multiple drying troughs 2 arranged sequentially along the feeding direction of the housing 1, and a heat source chamber 3 provided below each drying trough 2. A height-adjustable jet component 4 is provided in the middle of the drying trough 2, which can generate horizontal airflow to both sides. A stirring component 5 and a fastening component 6 are arranged sequentially above the drying trough 2.
[0030] In operation, sesame seeds are fed into the drying trough 2 in batches. The heat source chamber 3 roasts the sesame seeds through heat conduction from the drying trough 2, while the stirring component 5 oscillates back and forth to stir and turn the sesame seeds, preventing them from piling up and causing inconsistent drying results. Each heat source chamber 3 corresponds to one drying trough 2. By controlling the temperature of each heat source chamber 3, different roasting processes can be achieved. After one roasting period, the locking component 6 moves downward to form a relatively closed cavity with the drying trough 2. Then, the jet component 4 extends upward and generates a horizontal high-temperature airflow, blowing the sesame seeds to tumble and dry within the cavity. At the same time, the gas is discharged from the top, forming a complete process. Then, the locking component 6 moves upward to reset, and the stirring component 5 moves the sesame seeds to the next drying trough 2 to continue the operation. This avoids the problem of multiple filling operations required by traditional equipment, effectively improving work efficiency and the processing quality of sesame seeds.
[0031] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 4-5 As shown, the drying tank 2 has a chute 201 in the middle that communicates with the heat source chamber 3, and the cross-section of the drying tank 2 is semi-circular, which can gather sesame seeds in the center position, making it convenient to roast the sesame seeds. The width of the chute 201 is equal to the width of the jet component 4.
[0032] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the front end of the jet component 4 is provided with an air inlet 401, and the interior is a hollow structure. On the upper sides of the jet component 4, there are multiple air outlets 402 that communicate with the internal structure. The upper surface of the jet component 4 is adapted to the surface shape of the drying tank 2 to form a semi-circle. In the non-working state, the jet component 4 is retracted in the heat source cavity 3, which only serves to support and seal, so as to avoid affecting the stirring component 5 to stir the sesame seeds and roast the sesame seeds. When airflow is needed to blow the sesame seeds to tumble and dry, the jet component 4 moves upward and exposes the air outlets 402. At the same time, after the displacement, the high temperature airflow can smoothly enter through the air inlet 401 and be blown out through the air outlets 402, generating a horizontal airflow to blow the sesame seeds to tumble and improve the drying effect.
[0033] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, an air inlet pipe 301 is provided in front of the heat source cavity 3 on the casing 1. The distance between the center of the air inlet pipe 301 and the center of the drying tank 2 is smaller than the distance between the air inlet hole 401 and the center of the drying tank 2. In the non-working state, the air inlet hole 401 is located below the air inlet pipe 301 and is in a non-connected state. When the jet component 4 moves upward and extends, the air inlet pipe 301 is connected to the air inlet hole 401, and high-temperature airflow can be transported.
[0034] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 4As shown, a first hydraulic cylinder 403 is provided below the jet component 4, which is used to push the jet component 4 to adjust its up and down displacement.
[0035] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 2 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the stirring assembly 5 includes a pair of mounting plates 501 and a rotating shaft 502. A second hydraulic cylinder 503 connected to the housing 1 is provided above the mounting plate 501. The mounting plates 501 are located on the front and rear sides of the housing 1. The two ends of the rotating shaft 502 are connected to the mounting plates 501 as rotating shafts. A stirring plate 7 and a cleaning plate 8 are provided on the rotating shaft 502. The stirring plate 7 and the cleaning plate 8 are arranged at 180 degrees. The second hydraulic cylinder 503 can drive the rotating shaft 502 to move upward as a whole, thereby reserving the extension distance of the spray component 4. The stirring plate 7 swings back and forth in the drying tank 2 to turn the sesame seeds and avoid accumulation. When it is necessary to transport the sesame seeds to the next drying tank 2, the rotating shaft 502 rotates, which is achieved by the cleaning plate 8.
[0036] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 8 As shown, a brush is installed in the middle of the cleaning plate 8, and the working surface of the brush extends beyond the working surface of the cleaning plate 8, thereby achieving better cleaning operations.
[0037] Preferred embodiments, in conjunction with figures and Figure 9 As shown, the stirring plate 7 includes a left plate 701 and a right plate 702; there is a gap between the left plate 701 and the right plate 702 to facilitate the passage of sesame seeds and their leakage during rotation; the left plate 701 has multiple first notches 703 at equal intervals; the right plate 702 has multiple second notches 704 at equal intervals, and the width of the second notches 704 is smaller than the width of the first notches 703. Through the staggered arrangement of the two, different flow-diversion effects can be formed during forward and reverse rotation, improving the stirring effect and ensuring the uniformity of heating of the sesame seeds.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting plate 501 is T-shaped to facilitate the layout of the power unit. Both ends of the rotary shaft 502 are provided with pulleys 504, and adjacent rotary shafts 502 are connected by belts. At the same time, the mounting plate 501 is provided with a motor 505 that is connected to the pulleys 504 on the end rotary shafts 502 to realize power transmission.
[0039] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 2-3As shown, the fastening assembly 6 includes a support plate 601 and a cover 602 installed at equal intervals on the support plate 601. The cover 602 is welded to the support plate 601. A third hydraulic cylinder 603 connected to the housing 1 is provided above the support plate 601. The cover 602 is controlled by the extension and retraction of the third hydraulic cylinder 603. The lower part of the cover 602 is semi-circular. After docking with the drying tank 2, it forms a cavity similar to a circle, which facilitates the sesame seeds to form an elliptical movement trajectory in the direction of the horizontal airflow, which is convenient for drying the sesame seeds. The upper part of the cover 602 has a rectangular channel to facilitate the airflow discharge. The front and rear of the cover 602 are provided with displacement grooves 604 to avoid interference with the rotating shaft 502 and facilitate the fastening of the cover 602. Specific Implementation Method Two
[0041] Combination Figure 1-5 As shown, for the heating of the heat source cavity 3, pipes can be arranged in front of and behind the heat source cavity 3 respectively to achieve the heating by conveying high temperature airflow. When the drying tank 2 needs to have a higher temperature, it can also be heated by liquid. When using liquid heating, two downward-extending plates need to be welded at the slide 201 to seal the air inlet and prevent liquid from entering the jet component 4.
[0042] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of the present invention and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
