[0017] The embodiment of the present application discloses a condiment drying device. By adopting a pressing and extruding mechanism 1, the water in the raw material can be quickly separated by extrusion. Combined with the air-drying treatment in the prior art, the drying efficiency can be improved. At the same time, by setting up a juice processing mechanism 2, the juice squeezed out by the pressing and extruding mechanism 1 can be further processed to separate the water in the juice, and the rest is retained and re-merged into the raw material, thereby fully retaining the raw material.

[0018] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. Example

[0019] Reference Figures 1 to 9 The present invention provides a condiment drying device, comprising a pressing and extruding mechanism 1, which is used to squeeze the condiment raw material to squeeze out juice from the raw material. By directly squeezing, the water in the raw material can be quickly separated, and combined with the air drying process in the prior art, the drying efficiency can be improved.

[0020] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The pressing and extruding mechanism 1 includes an extruding barrel 101, an extruding flat plate 102, an extruding cylinder 103 and an extruding bottom plate 104. The extruding barrel 101 is used to hold seasoning raw materials. The extruding flat plate 102 is vertically slidably arranged in the extruding barrel 101. The extruding cylinder 103 is arranged above the extruding barrel 101. The output end of the extruding cylinder 103 is vertically downward and connected to the extruding flat plate 102. The extruding bottom plate 104 is arranged below the extruding flat plate 102.

[0021] It is worth pointing out that referring to Figure 5 An extrusion groove 112 is provided on the extrusion bottom plate 104 , and the shape of the lower end surface of the extrusion flat plate 102 is adapted to the extrusion groove 112 .

[0022] In the above-mentioned extrusion mechanism 1, when the output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 is in a retracted state, the extrusion plate 102 is located above the extrusion cylinder 101 and is out of contact with the extrusion cylinder 101. There is a certain gap between the extrusion plate 102 and the extrusion cylinder 101 to facilitate the input of the seasoning raw materials. When the seasoning raw materials need to be extruded, the output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 extends downward, driving the extrusion plate 102 to move downward until the extrusion plate 102 is pressed on the extrusion bottom plate 104, thereby extruding the seasoning raw materials and squeezing out the water therein.

[0023] The technical solutions in the above embodiments of the present application have at least the following technical effects or advantages: In this embodiment, a pressing and extruding mechanism 1 is provided to quickly separate the water in the raw material by direct extrusion, and combined with the air drying process in the prior art, the drying efficiency can be improved. Example

[0024] The condiment drying device in this embodiment is based on the first embodiment, and further includes a juice processing mechanism 2 and a mixing and stirring mechanism 3. In this embodiment, the pressing and extruding mechanism 1 is used to extrude the condiment raw materials to squeeze out juice from the raw materials, the juice processing mechanism 2 is used to collect and process the squeezed juice and separate the water in the juice, and the mixing and stirring mechanism 3 is used to mix the separated juice with the squeezed raw materials.

[0025] By means of the juice processing mechanism 2 provided above, the juice squeezed out by the pressing and squeezing mechanism 1 can be further processed, the water in the juice can be separated, and the rest can be retained and re-merged into the raw material, thereby fully retaining the raw material.

[0026] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 The juice processing mechanism 2 includes a collecting hopper 201, an evaporation box 202, a heater 203, a first collecting box 204 and a second collecting box 205. The collecting hopper 201 is located in the extrusion cylinder 101, and the collecting hopper 201 is located below the extrusion bottom plate 104. The collecting hopper 201 is used to collect the juice squeezed out by the pressing and extruding mechanism 1. The collecting hopper 201 is connected to the evaporation box 202 through a pipeline. The evaporation box 202 receives the juice transported by the collecting hopper 201. The heater 203 is arranged in the evaporation box 202. The heater 203 is used to boil the juice in the evaporation box 202 to form steam. The first collecting box 204 is connected to the evaporation box 202, and the second collecting box 205 is connected to the evaporation box 202.

[0027] In the juice processing mechanism 2, the first collecting box 204 is used to collect steam with a boiling point lower than that of water, and the second collecting box 205 is used to collect water vapor.

[0028] Further, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The mixing and stirring mechanism 3 includes a stirring assembly 31, which is used to hold the squeezed raw material and the evaporated juice raw material to provide space for mixing the two. The stirring assembly 31 includes a mixing and stirring box 311 and a stirring shaft 312, which is arranged in the mixing and stirring box 311, and is connected to a stirring motor. The bottom end of the stirring shaft 312 is connected to a stirring blade 313.

[0029] Furthermore, the mixing and stirring mechanism 3 also includes a first material picking up component 32 and a second material picking up component 33. The first material picking up component 32 is used to pick up the raw materials extruded in the pressing and extruding mechanism 1 and transfer them to the stirring component 31, and the second material picking up component 33 is used to pick up the materials evaporated by the juice processing mechanism 2 and transfer them to the stirring component 31.

[0030] Among them, refer to Figure 5 The first material lifting assembly 32 includes a first material lifting shovel 321, a first material lifting guide rail 322, a first collecting bucket 324, a first telescopic cylinder 325 and a first collecting pipe 326. The first material lifting shovel 321 is used to shovel the extruded raw materials. The first material lifting shovel 321 is located in the extrusion cylinder 101 and above the extrusion bottom plate 104. The first material lifting slide 323 is slidably provided on the first material lifting guide rail 322. The first material lifting slide 323 is connected to the first material lifting shovel 321. The first material lifting guide rail 32 2 is located in the extrusion cylinder 101 and above the first material lifting shovel 321. The first collecting bucket 324 is used to hold the shoveled raw materials. The first collecting bucket 324 is located in the extrusion cylinder 101 and below the extrusion bottom plate 104. The output end of the first telescopic cylinder 325 is connected to the first collecting bucket 324. The upper end of the first collecting pipe 326 is connected to the first collecting bucket 324. The other end of the first collecting pipe 326 extends to the stirring assembly 31 to guide the extruded raw materials into the stirring assembly 31.

[0031] In the above-mentioned first material lifting assembly 32, when the output end of the first telescopic cylinder 325 is in a retracted state, the first collecting bucket 324 is located below the raw material, located at the center below the extrusion bottom plate 104. At this time, the first collecting bucket 324 is located above the side of the collecting bucket 201 to avoid affecting the collection of juice into the collecting bucket 201. At the same time, when the output end of the first telescopic cylinder 325 is in an extended state, the first collecting bucket 324 moves to the bottom of the raw material, so that the first collecting bucket 324 can hold the scooped raw material.

[0032] At the same time, when the first material lifting component 32 is in action, the first telescopic cylinder 325 extends out, driving the first collecting bucket 324 to move to the bottom of the collecting bucket 201. At this time, the first collecting bucket 324 is located below the inclined extrusion bottom plate 104, and then the first material lifting slide 323 moves along the first material lifting guide rail 322, thereby driving the first material lifting shovel 321 to move. The middle part of the first material lifting guide rail 322 is recessed downward for a section, and the recessed section is adapted to the extrusion groove 112, so that the first material lifting shovel 321 is inserted from the edge of the extrusion groove 112 into the bottom of the extrusion groove 112, and moves along the bottom of the extrusion groove 112, thereby lifting the extruded raw material in the extrusion groove 112 and driving it to the bottom of the extrusion groove 112 in the inclined state, so that the lifted raw material falls into the first collecting bucket 324, and the raw material enters the mixing box 311 of the stirring component 31 along the first collecting pipe 326.

[0033] Further, refer to Figure 2 The second material starting component 33 includes a second collecting pipe 331 and a third collecting pipe 332. One end of the second collecting pipe 331 is connected to the evaporation box 202, and the other end is connected to the mixing and stirring box 311 extending to the stirring component 31, so as to introduce the remaining juice of the juice processing mechanism 2 into the stirring component 31. One end of the third collecting pipe 332 is connected to the first collecting box 204, and the other end is connected to the mixing and stirring box 311 extending to the stirring component 31.

[0034] The technical solutions in the above embodiments of the present application have at least the following technical effects or advantages: In this embodiment, a juice processing mechanism 2 and a mixing and stirring mechanism 3 are provided. The juice processing mechanism 2 collects the squeezed juice and separates the water in the juice. The mixing and stirring mechanism 3 mixes the separated juice with the squeezed raw material, thereby fully retaining the raw material. Example

[0035] This embodiment is based on the second embodiment, and further refers to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The extrusion cylinder 101 includes, from top to bottom, a large diameter portion 1011, a reduced diameter portion 1012 and a small diameter portion 1013. The large diameter portion 1011 and the small diameter portion 1013 are both vertical cylindrical structures, and the reduced diameter portion 1012 is a vertical truncated cone cylinder structure. The upper end diameter of the reduced diameter portion 1012 is larger than the lower end diameter. The extrusion cylinder 103 is located above the large diameter portion 1011, and a base 105 is provided at the bottom of the small diameter portion 1013. The left end of the upper surface of the base 105 is hinged with a first supporting cylinder 106, and the output end of the first supporting cylinder 106 is connected to the left end of the lower surface of the extrusion bottom plate 104. The right end of the upper surface of the base 105 is hinged with a second supporting cylinder 107, and the output end of the second supporting cylinder 107 is hinged to the right end of the lower surface of the extrusion bottom plate 104.

[0036] It should be noted that when the output ends of the first supporting cylinder 106 and the second supporting cylinder 107 are both in a contracted state, the extrusion bottom plate 104 is located in the small diameter portion 1013, and the extrusion bottom plate 104 is in a horizontal state; When the extrusion bottom plate 104 is located in the small diameter portion 1013 and moves, the first supporting cylinder 106 and the second supporting cylinder 107 have the same extension length, so that the extrusion bottom plate 104 is kept in a horizontal state; When the extrusion bottom plate 104 is located in the diameter-changing portion 1012 and moves, the first supporting cylinder 106 and the second supporting cylinder 107 have different extension lengths, so that the extrusion bottom plate 104 is in an inclined horizontal state; When the extrusion bottom plate 104 is located in the large diameter portion 1011 and moves, the extension lengths of the first supporting cylinder 106 and the second supporting cylinder 107 are the same, so that the extrusion bottom plate 104 is kept in an inclined horizontal state.

[0037] Further, refer to Figure 3 The output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 is connected to an extrusion seat 108, and a plurality of movable cylinders 109 are hinged at the lower end of the extrusion seat 108. An extrusion rod 110 is movably inserted in the movable cylinder 109. The lower end of the extrusion rod 110 is hinged to the extrusion plate 102, and an extrusion spring 111 is arranged on the outside of the extrusion rod 110. Under the elastic force of the extrusion spring 111, the extrusion rod 110 is in a maximum extension state to keep the extrusion plate 102 in a horizontal state.

[0038] When the output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 extends, the extrusion plate 102 is kept in a horizontal state, so that the extrusion plate 102 presses the extrusion bottom plate 104 horizontally; When the extrusion bottom plate 104 becomes inclined, the extrusion flat plate 102 also becomes inclined, and the extrusion flat plate 102 is always pressed on the extrusion bottom plate 104 .

[0039] In this embodiment, the small diameter portion 1013 receives the raw material. After the raw material falls into the small diameter portion 1013, the output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 extends to drive the extrusion plate 102 to press the extrusion groove 112 on the extrusion bottom plate 104. At this time, the extrusion plate 102 only covers the extrusion groove 112 to prevent the raw material from escaping from the extrusion groove 112. Then the extrusion plate 102 and the extrusion bottom plate 104 move upward. After the two move to the variable diameter portion 1012, the first support cylinder 106 and the second support cylinder 107 extend. The speeds are different, causing the extrusion bottom plate 104 to tilt, and the extrusion flat plate 102 also changes with the angle of the extrusion bottom plate 104 and tilts accordingly. After the extrusion flat plate 102 and the extrusion bottom plate 104 move to the large diameter portion 1011, the first supporting cylinder 106 and the second supporting cylinder 107 stop, and the output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 extends downward, thereby squeezing the raw material so that moisture is squeezed out. Since the extrusion flat plate 102 and the extrusion bottom plate 104 are in an inclined state, the squeezed moisture can be collected relatively smoothly.

[0040] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, when the raw materials are added, the extrusion bottom plate 104 is located in the small diameter portion 1013. At this time, the side wall of the extrusion bottom plate 104 is in close contact with the inner wall of the small diameter portion 1013. At the same time, the groove wall of the extrusion groove 112 is inclined. Therefore, the raw materials added to the extrusion cylinder 101 will be gathered in the extrusion groove 112, and the extrusion bottom plate 104 always remains in a horizontal state in the small diameter portion 1013, so that it can move relatively smoothly.

[0041] When the extrusion bottom plate 104 moves to the variable diameter portion 1012, the extrusion bottom plate 104 is in an inclined state. Since the size of the variable diameter portion 1012 is larger than the small diameter portion 1013, the inclination of the extrusion bottom plate 104 will not squeeze and damage the inner wall of the variable diameter portion 1012, that is, the variable diameter portion 1012 has enough space for the extrusion bottom plate 104 to change its posture.

[0042] Therefore, based on the arrangement of the variable diameter portion 1012 and the small diameter portion 1013, the extrusion bottom plate 104 can be changed into an inclined state, so that it is convenient to collect the juice after squeezing out the juice, and it is also convenient to take out the extruded raw materials.

[0043] The technical solutions in the above embodiments of the present application have at least the following technical effects or advantages: In this embodiment, the extrusion cylinder 101 includes, from top to bottom, a large diameter portion 1011, a variable diameter portion 1012 and a small diameter portion 1013. The extrusion bottom plate 104 remains in a horizontal state in the small diameter portion 1013. The side wall of the extrusion bottom plate 104 is in close contact with the inner wall of the small diameter portion 1013, so that it is convenient for the raw material to be put into the extrusion bottom plate 104. In this state, the extrusion flat plate 102 covers the extrusion bottom plate 104 to prevent the raw material from escaping. Then, the extrusion flat plate 102, the raw material and the extrusion bottom plate 104 move together to the large diameter portion 1011 and change to an inclined state. The raw material is squeezed in the inclined state, so that the juice is easy to collect and the extruded raw material is also easy to take out. Example

The air drying mechanism 4 is used to air dry the mixed raw materials to dry the adjusted product. The air drying mechanism 4 includes a circulating air supply component 41, a drying and filtering component 42, and a heating component 43. The circulating air supply component 41 is used to input airflow into the mixing and stirring mechanism 3, and at the same time, to extract the air in the mixing and stirring mechanism 3, so that the air continuously circulates between the circulating air supply component and the mixing and stirring mechanism 3. The drying and filtering component 42 is arranged at the air inlet end of the circulating air supply component 41 to filter out moisture in the circulating airflow, and the heating component 43 is arranged at the air outlet end of the circulating air supply component 41 to increase the temperature of the circulating airflow.

[0045] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 The mixing and stirring mechanism 3 is provided with an air inlet 301 and an air outlet 302, and the air inlet 301 and the air outlet 302 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0047] The technical solutions in the above embodiments of the present application have at least the following technical effects or advantages: In this embodiment, by providing an air drying mechanism 4, a dry hot air flow can be blown toward the mixing and stirring mechanism 3, so that the moderate raw materials in the mixing and stirring mechanism 3 can be further dehydrated.

[0048] When using the condiment drying device in this embodiment, the raw material is first put into the extrusion cylinder 101. At this time, the extrusion bottom plate 104 is located in the small diameter portion 1013 and is in a horizontal state. After the raw material falls into the extrusion groove 112, the output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 extends, driving the extrusion plate 102 to press on the extrusion groove 112 on the extrusion bottom plate 104. At this time, the extrusion plate 102 only covers the extrusion groove 112 to prevent the raw material from escaping from the extrusion groove 112. Then, the output ends of the first supporting cylinder 106 and the second supporting cylinder 107 are synchronously extended, and the output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 is synchronously retracted. The extrusion flat plate 102 and the extrusion bottom plate 104 are kept in a horizontal fitting state and moved upward. After moving to the variable diameter portion 1012, the extension speeds of the first supporting cylinder 106 and the second supporting cylinder 107 differ, the extrusion bottom plate 104 becomes inclined, and the extrusion flat plate 102 also tilts accordingly. The extrusion flat plate 102 and the extrusion bottom plate 104 always keep in a fitting state. After the extrusion flat plate 102 and the extrusion bottom plate 104 move to the large diameter portion 1011, the extrusion flat plate 102 and the extrusion bottom plate 104 keep in a tilted fitting state, and the first supporting cylinder 106, the second supporting cylinder 107 and the extrusion cylinder 103 stop.

[0049] Then, the output end of the extrusion cylinder 103 extends out, and the extrusion plate 102 squeezes the extrusion bottom plate 104 to squeeze out juice from the raw material. The squeezed juice flows along the inclined extrusion bottom plate 104 to the collecting bucket 201, and the juice flows along the pipeline between the collecting bucket 201 and the evaporation box 202 to the evaporation box 202. In the evaporation box 202, the heater 203 heats the juice. The temperature of the juice is first less than 100 degrees to avoid the formation of water vapor, so that the part of the juice with a boiling point lower than that of water forms steam first, and this part of the steam is collected by the first collecting box 204. Then, the heater 203 heats the juice to 100 degrees, boils the water to form water vapor, and this part of the water vapor is collected by the second collecting box 205.

[0050] Then, the output end of the first telescopic cylinder 325 in the first material lifting assembly 32 extends, so that the first collecting bucket 324 moves and is above the collecting bucket 201 to collect the raw materials. Then, the first material lifting slide 323 moves along the first material lifting guide rail 322, thereby driving the first material lifting shovel 321 to move. The middle part of the first material lifting guide rail 322 is recessed downward for a section, and the recessed section is adapted to the extrusion groove 112, so that the first material lifting shovel 321 is inserted into the bottom of the extrusion groove 112 from the edge of the extrusion groove 112 and moves along the extrusion groove 112. The bottom moves, thereby taking out the extruded raw materials in the extrusion groove 112 and driving them to the bottom of the extrusion groove 112 in an inclined state, so that the taken out raw materials fall into the first collecting bucket 324, and the raw materials enter the mixing and stirring box 311 of the stirring component 31 along the first collecting pipe 326, and the remaining juice in the evaporation box 202 is introduced into the mixing and stirring box 311 of the stirring component 31 through the second collecting pipe 331, and the steam condensate collected in the first collecting box 204 is also introduced into the mixing and stirring box 311 of the stirring component 31.

[0051] Finally, the stirring component 31 is activated, and the stirring motor is started, driving the stirring shaft 312 and the stirring blades 313 to rotate, thereby stirring the raw materials in the mixing box 311 so that the raw materials are mixed evenly. At the same time, the air-drying mechanism 4 inputs a dry hot air flow into the mixing box 311 to further remove moisture from the raw materials.

[0052] In summary, the present embodiment provides a pressing and extruding mechanism 1, which can quickly separate the water in the raw material by extrusion. Combined with the air-drying process in the prior art, the drying efficiency can be improved. At the same time, by providing a juice processing mechanism 2, the juice squeezed out by the pressing and extruding mechanism 1 can be further processed to separate the water in the juice, and the rest is retained and re-merged into the raw material, thereby fully retaining the raw material.

[0053] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.

[0054] What has been described above is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent substitutions or changes according to the technical scheme and concept of the present application within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present application.
