DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] Embodiment 1, as Figures 1 to 5The oatmeal drying device shown in the figure includes an oven body 100, an electric heating box 101 is installed at the rear end of the oven body 100, an exhaust box 102 is installed on the top of the oven body 100, oven doors 103 are hinged on both sides of the front end of the oven body 100, and a plurality of material boxes are movably installed inside the oven body 100, and each material box is arranged equidistantly from top to bottom. The electric heating box 101 can adopt electric heating radiation or electric heating blasting to keep the inside of the oven body 100 at the required temperature for drying oatmeal, and the exhaust box 102 can be used to exhaust moisture during the drying process; The material box includes an outer frame 110, a circular material chamber 111 and a stirring mechanism. The outer frame 110 is fixed to the upper and lower sides of the circular material chamber 111. The middle of the circular material chamber 111 is rotatably connected with a ring plate 112. The outer frame 110 is used to fix the circular material chamber 111, and the circular material chamber 111 is used to hold oatmeal that needs to be dried. At the same time, the upper and lower sides of the circular material chamber 111 are fixed to the outer frame 110, so that the ring plate 112 can be stably rotatably connected to the middle of the circular material chamber 111. The stirring mechanism includes a vertical roller 113, a horizontal roller 114 and a plurality of stirring rods 115. The vertical roller 113 is rotatably installed at the center of the circular material chamber 111. The horizontal roller 114 horizontally penetrates the vertical roller 113 and is rotatably connected to the vertical roller 113. One end of the horizontal roller 114 is fixedly connected to each stirring rod 115. The other end of the horizontal roller 114 rotates through the ring plate 112 and is fixedly connected with a conical friction wheel 116. The lower side of the circular material chamber 111 is processed with an annular friction table 117 matching the conical friction wheel 116. When the vertical roller 113 rotates, the horizontal roller 114 rotates with it and makes the ring plate 112 rotates around itself, and through the friction between the conical friction wheel 116 at the end of the transverse roller 114 and the annular friction table 117 processed by the circular material cavity 111, the conical friction wheel 116 drives the transverse roller 114 to rotate relative to the ring plate 112 and the vertical roller 113, thereby causing the multiple stirring rods 115 at the end of the transverse roller 114 to rotate. In this way, the multiple stirring rods 115 can not only rotate with the vertical roller 113 in the circular material cavity 111, but also rotate with the transverse roller 114, so as to fully stir the oatmeal in the circular material cavity 111 and improve the uniformity of the oatmeal when drying; A plurality of transmission mechanisms corresponding to the vertical rollers 113 are also provided inside the oven body 100. The vertical rollers 113 can be driven to rotate through the transmission of the transmission mechanisms.

[0019] Before using the device, take out each material box, and put the oatmeal to be dried into the circular material cavity 111 of the material box, then put the material box into the oven body 100, close the oven doors 103 on both sides, and then start drying the oatmeal; During the drying process, the electric heating box 101 is first started to heat up the interior of the oven body 100 and maintain the temperature at the drying temperature required for the oatmeal. Then, the vertical rollers 113 of each material box are rotated through various transmission mechanisms, so that the oatmeal in each circular material cavity 111 is fully stirred, so that the oatmeal is dried more evenly.

[0020] As a further description of the front end limit of the material box and the transmission mechanism in this embodiment, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, both sides of each outer frame 110 are processed with a positioning platform 120 extending forward and backward, each positioning platform 120 is provided with a through slot extending forward and backward, and the oven body 100 is installed with a plurality of positioning rods 121 matching each through slot, and the front end of the positioning rod 121 is threadedly connected to a limit pin 122; The lower end of the vertical roller 113 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 130 that rotates and penetrates the bottom of the circular material chamber 111, and the lower end of the rotating rod 130 is fixedly connected to a first friction wheel 131; The transmission mechanism includes a first mounting frame 132, a first belt pulley 133, a second mounting frame 134, a second friction wheel 135 and a second belt pulley 136. The first mounting frame 132 is fixed to the rear side of the oven body 100, and the first belt pulley 133 is rotatably mounted on the first mounting frame 132. The second mounting frame 134 is fixed to the rear side of the oven body 100, the second friction wheel 135 is rotatably mounted on the front end of the second mounting frame 134, the second friction wheel 135 corresponds to the first friction wheel 131, the second belt pulley 136 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the second friction wheel 135, and the first belt pulley 133 and the second belt pulley 136 are connected by belt transmission; The first pulleys 133 installed on the multiple first mounting frames 132 are fixedly connected by a vertical connecting rod 137. A motor 138 is installed at the bottom of the oven body 100. The vertical connecting rod 137 rotates through the oven body 100 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 138.

[0021] When installing the material box, the positioning platforms 120 on both sides of the outer frame 110 are aligned with the positioning rods 121, so that the material box can be sent into the oven body 100 along the positioning rods 121, and as the material box is sent in, the first friction wheel 131 installed on the rotating rod 130 of the vertical roller 113 will abut against the second friction wheel 135 installed on the second mounting bracket 134, so that the material box can no longer be sent in. At this time, the rear end of the material box is limited, and at the same time, the limiting pin 122 is screwed into the front end of the positioning rod 121, so that the front end of the material box is limited, so that the limiting of the material box is completed; When the transmission mechanism is operating, the motor 138 is started to rotate the vertical connecting rod 137, so that the first pulleys 133 of each first mounting frame 132 can rotate synchronously. Since the first pulley 133 and the second pulley 136 are connected by belt transmission, the second pulley 136 will drive the second friction wheel 135 of the second mounting frame 134 to rotate. Since the first friction wheel 131 abuts the second friction wheel 135, under the action of friction force, the rotation of the second friction wheel 135 can cause the first friction wheel 131 to rotate, and then the rotating rod 130 and the vertical roller 113 are rotated, so that the oatmeal is fully stirred.

[0022] Embodiment 2 is based on embodiment 1 and is a further improvement made on embodiment 1, so that the material box can also reciprocate back and forth to improve the uniformity of the oatmeal during drying. Figure 6 As shown, the second mounting frame 134 is provided with a first spring seat 200, the second friction wheel 135 is rotatably mounted on the front end of the first spring seat 200, and a plurality of second spring seats 201 are also mounted on the side of the oven body 100, and a third pulley 202 is rotatably mounted on the end of each second spring seat 201, and the first pulley 133, the second pulley 136 and the third pulley 202 are connected together through a belt transmission; A base frame 210 is installed at the bottom of each circular material cavity 111, and one of the oven doors 103 is installed with a plurality of electric telescopic rods 211, each electric telescopic rod 211 corresponds to the base frame 210 of each circular material cavity 111, and a push plate 212 is provided at the movable end of each electric telescopic rod 211.

[0023] like Figure 6 As shown, the first pulley 133, the second pulley 136 and the third pulley 202 are in a belt tensioning state due to the elastic action of the first spring seat 200 and the second spring seat 201, so that when the material box is fed in, the elastic force of the first spring seat 200 will not push the material box out of the positioning rod 121 due to the limiting pin 122. After closing the oven door 103, people start each electric telescopic rod 211, so that the movable end of the electric telescopic rod 211 reciprocates and extends according to the set frequency; When the push plate 212 extends backward to push the base frame 210 to move backward, the first friction wheel 131 pushes the second friction wheel 135 to move backward, elastically compressing the first spring seat 200. At the same time, the second spring seat 201 adaptively elastically deforms to keep the belt tight, so that the first friction wheel 131 can always rotate through the belt drive, so as to keep the second friction wheel 135 able to rotate driven by the first friction wheel 131; When the push plate 212 is retracted forward, the first spring seat 200 elastically returns to its original position, and the second friction wheel 135 pushes the first friction wheel 131 to return to its original position forward. At the same time, the second spring seat 201 adaptively elastically deforms to keep the belt tight, so that the first friction wheel 131 can always rotate through the belt drive, so as to keep the second friction wheel 135 able to rotate driven by the first friction wheel 131; In this way, not only can the material box vibrate back and forth to vibrate the oatmeal, but during this process, the second friction wheel 135 can be driven by the first friction wheel 131 to keep rotating, so that the oatmeal in the circular material cavity 111 can be fully stirred, thereby realizing the function that the oatmeal in the circular material cavity 111 can be vibrated back and forth and fully stirred, thereby greatly improving the uniformity of the drying of the oatmeal.

[0024] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, in order to prevent moisture from being retained in the oven body 100 during the drying process, further improvements are made, and the specific improvements are as follows: The oven body 100 is also equipped with a humidity sensor and a controller. When the humidity sensor detects that the humidity in the oven body 100 reaches a preset value, the controller controls the exhaust box 102 to start and discharge the moisture in the oven body 100 .

[0025] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone familiar with the technology may modify or change the above embodiments without violating the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes made by those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field without departing from the spirit and technical ideas disclosed by the present invention should still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
