Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of spray dryers, in particular to a drying device for honey solidification production. BACKGROUND

[0002] In a food production process, honey is often made into a dry powder, which has the advantages that: honey contains a large amount of water, and is easy to change if not properly stored; it is easy to transport; the taste is more delicate; the nutritional ingredients in the honey can be more stably preserved; and the like. Due to these advantages, honey is often dried and processed into a powder during industrial use. When drying, a spray drying method or a freeze drying method is often used. The spray drying method uses a centrifugal spray dryer. The centrifugal spray dryer is connected with a cyclone separator and a fan at the rear. The fan discharges the airflow in the dryer through the cyclone separator.

[0003] When the spray drying method is used to make dry honey powder, additives are added to the honey, which is then sprayed into a mist in the centrifugal spray dryer. The mist of honey is in contact with hot dry gas entering the dryer, and the contact surface area of the mist of honey and the hot air is greatly increased, so that the water in the honey evaporates rapidly, and the honey quickly becomes powder or fine particles. However, in this process, due to the large volume of the dryer, the low thermal conductivity, and the movement state of the hot gas in the dryer, the mist of honey before complete drying will stick to the inner wall of the dryer and continue to be heated and dried by the hot gas flow. The honey sticking to the wall will be burnt, and the sticking phenomenon can be improved by changing the flow trajectory and flow rate of the gas in the dryer, or by modifying the structure and material of the drying tower. However, these methods are difficult to cope with honey with adjusted additives that change the viscosity or other properties, and are difficult to change the drying speed. Therefore, in order to reduce the sticking phenomenon during honey drying for different properties of honey, a drying device for honey solidification production is proposed. SUMMARY

[0024] As Figures 1-6As shown, the embodiment proposes a drying device for honey solidification production, which comprises a drying cylinder 1, rotating clamping grooves 3, a wind direction adjusting mechanism, a wall sticking cleaning mechanism, a sealing cover 4 and a gas feeding mechanism. The lower part of the drying cylinder 1 is provided with a collecting cone 2, which is connected with the cyclone separator outside. The rotating clamping grooves 3 are provided with multiple, which are circumferentially arranged on the side of the drying cylinder 1. The wind direction adjusting mechanism is provided with multiple, which correspond to the rotating clamping grooves 3 one by one, and is rotatably arranged in the rotating clamping grooves 3. The wind direction adjusting mechanism is used for adjusting the hot air direction fed into the drying cylinder 1. The wall sticking cleaning mechanism is provided with multiple, which is rotatably arranged on the wind direction adjusting mechanism and is arranged inside the drying cylinder 1. The wall sticking cleaning mechanism is used for conveniently cleaning the honey sticking to the wall. The sealing cover 4 is fixedly arranged above the drying cylinder 1. The gas feeding mechanism is arranged on the side of the drying cylinder 1 and is connected with the multiple wind direction adjusting mechanisms. The gas feeding mechanism is used for feeding hot air into the wind direction adjusting mechanism. The hot air is fed into the wind direction adjusting mechanism through the gas feeding mechanism. The wind direction adjusting mechanism feeds the hot air into the drying cylinder 1. The blowing direction of the hot air flow can be adjusted through the wind direction adjusting mechanism. Through the rotation of the four wind direction adjusting mechanisms at the same time, the flow path of the hot air flow in the drying cylinder 1 can be adjusted, and the diameter of the hot air flow rotation is affected, thereby affecting the distance between the honey moving with the air flow and the wall sticking cleaning mechanism. The distance can be adjusted according to different honey and different additive addition ratios, thereby reducing the occurrence of wall sticking. At the same time, through the wall sticking cleaning mechanism, the honey can be prevented from sticking to the inner wall of the rotating clamping groove 3 or the drying cylinder 1, which is not convenient for cleaning. The wall sticking cleaning mechanism is arranged between the multiple wind direction adjusting mechanisms to prevent the honey from sticking to other objects. The honey sticking to the wall can be conveniently cleaned on the wall sticking cleaning mechanism.

The air outlet of the air blower 18 is communicated with the bottom of the air supply pipeline 16. The air guide pipe 19 is communicated with the top of the air supply pipeline 16. A plurality of hoses 20 are connected to the air guide pipe 19. The hoses 20 are communicated with the middle part of the air supply frame 5. The air blower 18 supplies air into the air supply pipeline 16. The air is heated by the heaters 17 in the air supply pipeline 16, and then is supplied to the hoses 20 through the air guide pipe 19. The hoses 20 supply the hot air into the air supply frame 5. When the air supply frame 5 is driven to rotate by the output end of the driving cylinder 7, the hoses 20 move with the air supply frame 5.
