[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the connecting component 6 includes a blanking plate 61, a first I-shaped plate 62 and a second I-shaped plate 63, the right end of the belt conveyor 3 is fixedly connected to the blanking plate 61, the three openings set on the left panel of the freezing bin 4 are fixedly connected to the first I-shaped plate 62, the three openings set on the right panel of the freezing bin 4 are fixedly connected to the second I-shaped plate 63, the side where the placement frame 41 and the first I-shaped plate 62 are close to each other are symmetrically provided with inclined surfaces up and down, and the side where the placement frame 41 and the second I-shaped plate 63 are close to each other are also provided with inclined surfaces up and down, and when the placement frame 41 rotates around the rotating shaft, it will not touch the adjacent first I-shaped plate 62 or second I-shaped plate 63.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4-Figure 6As shown, the closing assembly 7 includes a guide rod 71, a first sealing plate 72, an electric push rod a73, a fixed block a74, a sliding frame 75, a second sealing plate 76, an electric push rod b77 and a connecting plate 78. Three pairs of guide rods 71 ​​are welded and fixed to the outer wall of the left panel of the freezing bin 4 from top to bottom in an interval manner. The first sealing plate 72 is slidably connected between each pair of guide rods 71. Three electric push rods a73 are installed on the outer wall of the left panel of the freezing bin 4 from top to bottom in an interval manner by bolts. The ends of the telescopic rods of the three electric push rods a73 are fixedly connected to the adjacent first sealing plates 72. Four fixed blocks a74 are welded and fixed at intervals on the outer wall of the right panel of the freezing bin 4, and a sliding frame 75 is slidably connected between two adjacent fixed blocks a74. Three second sealing plates 76 are welded and fixed at intervals from top to bottom between the two sliding frames 75. The second sealing plates 76 can close the adjacent openings. Two electric push rods b77 are fixedly connected to the upper side of the outer wall of the right panel of the freezing bin 4, and a connecting plate 78 is fixedly connected between the ends of the telescopic rods of the two electric push rods b77. The front and rear ends of the connecting plate 78 are respectively fixedly connected to the two sliding frames 75.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the tilting mechanism 8 includes a fixed seat 81, a slide bar 82, a return spring 83, an extrusion block 84, a rocker 85, an extrusion rod 86 and a push rod 87. The outer walls of the front and rear panels of the freezing bin 4 are welded and fixed with three pairs of fixed seats 81 at intervals from top to bottom. The fixed seats 81 are slidably connected with slide bars 82. Reset springs 83 are connected between the slide bars 82 and the adjacent fixed seats 81. An extrusion block 84 is fixedly connected between the left ends of two adjacent slide bars 82. The ends of the rotating shafts on the front and rear sides of the three placement frames 41 are fixedly connected with rockers 85. The extrusion blocks 84 are each provided with an inclined groove, and the rocker 85 cooperates with the adjacent extrusion blocks 84 through the inclined groove. An extrusion rod 86 is welded and fixed on the left side of the extrusion blocks 84. The extrusion rod 86 consists of a vertical rod part in the middle and an inclined rod part symmetrically symmetrically up and down. A push rod 87 is welded and fixed on the right side of the belt conveyor 3 front and back.

[0031] Initially, the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 32 is in a fully retracted state, that is, the belt conveyor 3 is at the lowest position, the staff starts the electric push rod a73 located at the lowest side, the telescopic rod of the electric push rod a73 retracts, thereby driving the first sealing plate 72 located at the lowest side to move upward, and then opens the opening adjacent to it, the staff then starts the two hydraulic cylinders 32, the piston rods of the two hydraulic cylinders 32 extend synchronously, thereby pushing the belt conveyor 3 to move upward, the unloading plate 61 moves upward with the belt conveyor 3 until it is aligned with the first I-shaped plate 62 located at the lowest side, the two hydraulic cylinders 32 are closed, and when the belt conveyor 3 moves upward, the push rod 87 also moves upward accordingly, thereby contacting and aligning with the inclined rod portion provided at the lower part of the extrusion rod 86 located at the lowest side. It squeezes, causing the squeezing rod 86 to move to the right. Under the guidance of the sliding rod 82 and the fixing seat 81, when the squeezing rod 86 moves to the right, it can only push the squeezing block 84 to move horizontally to the right, thereby driving the rocker 85 to rotate upward with the rotating shaft as the center, and then driving the placement frame 41 located at the lower side to rotate clockwise around the rotating shaft and tilt at a certain angle, so that the placement frame 41 is in a state where the left is higher and the right is lower. At this time, the return spring 83 is compressed, and the placement frame 41 located at the lower side is also aligned with the adjacent first I-shaped plate 62. The staff starts the belt conveyor 3, and the belt conveyor 3 transports the fruits and vegetables to the unloading plate 61. Since the unloading plate 61, the first I-shaped plate 62 and the placement frame 41 are all in a tilted and aligned state, the fruits and vegetables can be smoothly moved along the unloading plate 6 1 and the first I-shaped plate 62 slide into the placement frame 41 and are blocked by the second I-shaped plate 63. When the placement frame 41 is filled with a layer of fruits and vegetables, the belt conveyor 3 is closed, and the electric push rod a73 located at the lowest side is started again. The telescopic rod of the electric push rod a73 extends to push the first sealing plate 72 to reset, and the adjacent openings are closed. The above operation is repeated to fill the remaining two placement frames 41 with fruits and vegetables, and then the hydraulic cylinder 32 is continuously controlled to make the belt conveyor 3 drive the push rod 87 to move upward to a position where it is out of contact with the squeezing rod 86 located at the uppermost side. At this time, the three placement frames 41 are all in a horizontal state, and the freezing chamber 4 is started. The freezing chamber 4 freezes the fruits and vegetables at low temperatures so that the water in the fruits and vegetables exists in the form of ice. After the low-temperature freezing time is sufficient, it is started again. The vacuum pump 5 is started, and the vacuum pump 5 draws the inside of the freezing bin 4 into a vacuum state. The vacuum environment can significantly reduce the boiling point of water, so that ice can directly sublimate into water vapor at a lower temperature. The frozen water on the fruits and vegetables directly sublimates into water vapor, and is then extracted by the vacuum pump 5, so as to achieve the freeze-drying effect on the fruits and vegetables. When the freeze-dried fruits and vegetables need to be taken out, the two electric push rods b77 are started, and the telescopic rods of the two electric push rods b77 are synchronously retracted, thereby driving the two sliding frames 75 to move upward synchronously through the connecting plate 78, thereby causing the three second sealing plates 76 to move upward to open the three openings opened on the right panel of the freezing bin 4, and the staff then starts the hydraulic cylinder 32, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 32 is retracted, thereby driving the belt conveyor 3 to move downward.As a result, the top rod 87 contacts the uppermost squeezing plate, causing the uppermost placement frame 41 to rotate and tilt. At this time, the fruits and vegetables on it will slide out of the freezing chamber 4 along the second I-shaped plate 63. The staff only needs to collect the freeze-dried fruits and vegetables at the second I-shaped plate 63. Similarly, when the belt conveyor 3 continues to move downward, the fruits and vegetables on the other two placement frames 41 can be collected.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, it also includes a slide rail 91, a mounting plate 92, a mounting seat 93, a bidirectional screw rod 94, a motor 95 and a lever 96. Three slide rails 91 are welded and fixed at intervals from top to bottom on the inner walls of the front and rear panels of the freezing bin 4, and a mounting plate 92 is slidably connected between the two slide rails 91 at the same height. Three mounting seats 93 are welded and fixed at intervals from top to bottom on the inner walls of the left and right panels of the freezing bin 4, and a bidirectional screw rod 94 is rotatably connected between the two mounting seats 93 at the same height. Motors 95 are installed on the three mounting seats 93 on the right side by bolts, and the output shaft ends of the three motors 95 are fixedly connected to the right ends of the adjacent bidirectional screw rods 94. Multiple levers 96 are fixed at intervals on the three mounting plates 92. The lever 96 is made of silicone material, and will not cause damage to the fruits and vegetables when it is moved.

[0033] When the three placement frames 41 are filled with fruits and vegetables and the freezing chamber 4 is started, the staff starts the motor 95 again. The motor 95 drives the bidirectional screw rod 94 to rotate, thereby pushing the mounting plate 92 to make left and right reciprocating motion under the guidance of the slide rail 91, and then drives the lever 96 to move the fruits and vegetables on the placement frames 41, so that each surface of the fruits and vegetables can be more fully in contact with the cold air, thereby enhancing the freezing effect of the moisture in the fruits and vegetables. When the fruits and vegetables need to be taken out of the placement frame 41, since the placement frame 41 is in a state where the left is higher and the right is lower, the distance between the lever 96 and the placement frame 41 becomes larger, thereby not affecting the fruits and vegetables from sliding to the right away from the placement frame 41.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Fig. 9As shown, it also includes a limit plate 101, a fixed block b102, a blocking frame 103, a turntable 104, a torsion spring 105, a column 106, a sleeve 107 and a linkage rod 108. The limit plate 101 is symmetrically welded and fixed on the left side of the freezing bin 4. The limit plate 101 is sequentially provided with three V-shaped parts from top to bottom, and the three V-shaped parts correspond to the three openings provided on the left panel of the freezing bin 4 respectively. The three belt conveyors 3 are symmetrically welded and fixed on the right side of the three belt conveyors 3. The blocking frame 103 is rotatably connected between the two fixed blocks b102. The blocking frame 103 is 3 is composed of a long axis and short axes uniformly arranged thereon, and the short axes are made of flexible material. Turntables 104 are welded and fixed at both ends of the blocking frame 103. Torsion springs 105 are connected between the two turntables 104 and the adjacent fixed blocks b102. Columns 106 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the two turntables 104 away from each other. Sleeves 107 are welded and fixed symmetrically on the right side of the belt conveyor 3. Linkage rods 108 are slidably connected in the two sleeves 107. The right end of the linkage rod 108 contacts the adjacent limit plate 101, and the left end of the linkage rod 108 contacts the adjacent column.

[0035] When the staff drives the hydraulic cylinder 32 to move the belt conveyor 3 upward, the sleeve 107 moves upward with the belt conveyor 3, thereby driving the linkage rod 108 to move upward, so that the linkage rod 108 contacts the inclined surface of the V-shaped part on the limit plate 101, thereby pushing it to the left. The linkage rod 108 moves to the left, and the turntable 104 rotates clockwise by pushing the column 106, thereby driving the blocking frame 103 to rotate clockwise, blocking the right end of the belt conveyor 3, and preventing fruits and vegetables from sliding into the unloading plate 61 due to vibration when the belt conveyor 3 moves upward. Finally, it falls from the right end of the discharge plate 61, causing waste of fruits and vegetables. At this time, the torsion spring 105 is tightened, and when the belt conveyor 3 moves upward to a position to cooperate with the next discharge plate 61, the linkage rod 108 also moves upward to the next V-shaped part on the limit plate 101, and loses the limit of the limit plate 101. The linkage rod 108 can slide to the right. At this time, under the resetting action of the torsion spring 105, the interception frame rotates counterclockwise to reset, thereby releasing the blocking of the right end of the belt conveyor 3, and the fruits and vegetables can be transported to the discharge plate 61 by the belt conveyor 3.

[0036] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
