The first vibration component 17 includes a sieve plate 171 located at the bottom of the drying chamber 10. Two first vibrators 172 are provided on the outer wall of the sieve plate 171.

[0031] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when black goji berries need to be dried, the staff first adjusts the PLC controller, and then starts the pneumatic feeder 142 to draw the black goji berries in through the second feed pipe 143 and send them into the drying chamber 10 through the first feed pipe 141.

[0032] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 ,5 As shown in Figures 6, 7, and 8, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the auxiliary device 20 includes a fixed column 21 disposed on the top wall of the drying chamber 10. Multiple discharge ports 22 are embedded in the outer wall of the fixed column 21. A rotating component 23 is embedded in the inner bottom wall of each discharge port 22. A lifting groove 24 is embedded inside the fixed column 21. A lifting component 25 is provided on the inner bottom wall of the lifting groove 24. A top-moving block 26 is provided at the actuating end of the lifting component 25. An auxiliary component 27 is provided at the top of the top-moving block 26. The auxiliary component 27 has a top-moving block 28 at its actuating end. The rotating component 23 includes a motor 231 embedded in the bottom wall of the discharge port 22. The actuating end of the motor 231 has a conical block 232. The lifting component 25 includes an electric telescopic rod 251 located in the bottom wall of the lifting groove 24. The actuating end of the electric telescopic rod 251 is connected to the bottom of the top-moving block 26. The auxiliary component 27 includes a linkage rod 271 located at the top of the top-moving block 26. The top of the linkage rod 271 is connected to the bottom of the top-moving block 28.

[0033] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the black goji berries first enter the fixed column 21 through the feed inlet 13, and then reach the first filter plate 32 through the discharge outlet 22. Then, the operator starts the motor 231, which drives the conical block 232 to rotate, so that the black goji berries fall onto the first filter plate 32 more quickly.

[0034] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 , 7 As shown in the figure, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the material dispensing device includes a limiting component 31 disposed on the top wall of the drying chamber 10. The actuating end of the limiting component 31 is provided with a first filter plate 32. The bottom of the first filter plate 32 is provided with two connecting rods 33. The bottom of the two connecting rods 33 is provided with a second filter plate 34. The bottom of both the first filter plate 32 and the second filter plate 34 is provided with a second vibration component 35. The limiting component 31 includes four limiting rods 311 elastically connected to the top wall of the drying chamber 10. The bottom of the four limiting rods 311 is connected to the top of the first filter plate 32. The second vibration component 35 includes four second vibrators 351 disposed at the bottom of the first filter plate 32 and the second filter plate 34. The filter opening of the first filter plate 32 is larger than the filter opening of the second filter plate 34 and the top is concave.

[0035] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the operator then starts four second vibrators 351. The second vibrators 351 filter the berries smaller than the filter opening of the first filter plate 32, and the black goji berries fall onto the second filter plate 34. The black goji berries smaller than the filter opening of the second filter plate 34 fall onto the sieve plate 171. Then, when the black goji berries in the drying chamber 10 reach the specified amount, the PLC controller stops the pneumatic feeder 142 and the motor 231, and starts the hot air blower 121. The hot air blower 121 blows hot air from... The conveyor pipe 122 delivers air into the air inlet 16, then into the drying chamber 10. Hot air passes through the arc plate 18 to first dry the black goji berries on the first filter plate 32, then the black goji berries on the second filter plate 34, and finally the black goji berries on the sieve plate 171. Simultaneously, the PLC controller activates the first vibrator 172 to vibrate the black goji berries on the sieve plate 171, ensuring the black goji berries are evenly dried by the hot air. The PLC controller compares the temperature and humidity inside the drying chamber 10 according to the set values ​​and automatically adjusts the airflow or temperature of the hot air blower 121. After drying is complete, the PLC controller cuts off the power to the equipment. Then, the operator opens the cover of the discharge port 15 and manually activates the electric telescopic rod 251. Because there is a metal connection between the first filter plate 32 and the second filter plate 34, and the tops of the first and second actuating blocks 26 and 28 are connected to metal parts, the electric telescopic rod 251 pushes the first actuating block 26, thus drying the black goji berries. The moving block 26 pushes the metal part of the second filter plate 34, and at the same time drives the linkage rod 271 to push the moving block 28 to push the metal part of the first filter plate 32. The limiting rod 311 and the two connecting rods 33 limit the first filter plate 32 and the second filter plate 34. Then, under the push of the electric telescopic rod 251, the black goji berries of the first filter plate 32 and the second filter plate 34 slide onto the screen plate 171 and then flow out of the discharge port 15 from the screen plate 171. Finally, the electric telescopic rod 251 is returned to its original position.

[0036] All electrical components in this invention are triggered to operate by a PLC controller.

[0037] When drying black goji berries is required, the pneumatic feeder 142 is started to draw the black goji berries into the drying chamber 10 through the second feed pipe 143 and the first feed pipe 141. The black goji berries first enter the fixed column 21 through the feed inlet 13, and then reach the first filter plate 32 through the discharge outlet 22. The motor 231 is started, driving the conical block 232 to rotate, causing the black goji berries to fall onto the first filter plate 32 more quickly. The second vibrator 351 is then started, vibrating to filter berries smaller than the filter opening of the first filter plate 32. The first filter plate 32 is connected to the drying chamber 10 via a spring. The black goji berries fall from the top of the first filter plate 32 onto the second filter plate 34. Those smaller than the filter opening of the second filter plate 34 fall onto the sieve plate 171. When the amount of black goji berries in the drying chamber 10 reaches the specified quantity, the PLC controller stops the pneumatic feeder 142 and the motor 231, and starts the hot air blower 121. The hot air blower 121 sends hot air from the conveying pipe 122 into the air inlet 16, and then into the drying chamber 10. The hot air passes through the arc-shaped plate 18 to first dry the black goji berries on the first filter plate 32, then the black goji berries on the second filter plate 34, and finally the black goji berries on the sieve plate 171. Simultaneously, the PLC controller activates the first vibrator 172 to vibrate the black goji berries on the sieve plate 171, ensuring that the black goji berries are evenly dried by the hot air. The PLC controller compares the temperature and humidity inside the drying chamber 10 according to the set values ​​and then automatically adjusts the airflow or temperature of the hot air blower 121. After drying is complete, the PLC controller cuts off the power to the equipment. Then, the operator opens the cover of the discharge port 15 and activates the electric telescopic rod 251. Because there is a metal connection between the first filter plate 32 and the second filter plate 34, the filter screen is located in the middle. The top moving block 26 and the top moving block... The top of filter plate 28 is connected to a metal part, so the electric telescopic rod 251 pushes the actuating block 26, which actuates the metal part of the second filter plate 34. At the same time, the linkage rod 271 drives the actuating block 28 to actuate the metal part of the first filter plate 32. The limiting rod 311 and the two connecting rods 33 limit the first filter plate 32 and the second filter plate 34. Then, under the push of the electric telescopic rod 251, the black goji berries on the first filter plate 32 and the second filter plate 34 slide onto the screen plate 171 and flow out of the discharge port 15 from the screen plate 171. Finally, the electric telescopic rod 251 is returned to its original position.
