Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field related to the production of hibiscus flower tea. More specifically, it particularly relates to a conveying system and method for drying and processing hibiscus flowers. Background Art

[0002] Hibiscus flower tea is brewed from hibiscus flowers and belongs to the category of flower tea. It is also known as roselle tea. It has the effects of beauty, slimming, and blood pressure reduction, and is especially suitable for women to drink. Hibiscus flowers contain rich nutrients such as protein, fat, tartaric acid, and citric acid, which are beneficial to balancing blood lipids, enhancing calcium absorption, promoting digestion, detoxifying and diuretic, and can relieve the sense of fatigue in the body. It has a relieving effect on people who drink excessively. After being washed, hibiscus flowers need to be conveyed into a dryer for drying. However, the production of hibiscus flower tea in the prior art has the following defects: In the prior art, since the hibiscus flowers are just washed, the hibiscus flowers are likely to stick to the conveyor belt or a large number of hibiscus flowers stick together, making it difficult to disperse the hibiscus flowers, which affects the efficiency of subsequent drying and processing of the hibiscus flowers.

[0003] In the prior art, when the conveying system for drying and processing hibiscus flowers conveys the hibiscus flowers, there is a situation where the hibiscus flowers are unevenly distributed, and some hibiscus flowers are piled up together, resulting in the piled hibiscus flowers not being able to be heated evenly, thereby affecting the efficiency of subsequent drying and processing of the hibiscus flowers.

[0004] In the prior art, when the conveying system for drying and processing hibiscus flowers conveys the hibiscus flowers, in order to disperse the piled hibiscus flowers, a vibrating conveyor is usually used to convey the hibiscus flowers in a vibrating manner; however, the hibiscus flowers may be damaged or deformed due to extrusion, collision, or friction during the conveying process, thereby affecting the quality of the hibiscus flowers.

Several pairs of connecting blocks are connected between the upper side of the movable plate and the lower side of the guiding member. On the inclined surface on the upper side of the guiding member, there are several V-shaped blocks. At both ends of each V-shaped block, there is a dial plate rotatably provided. Inside both ends of each V-shaped block, there is a slide plate slidably provided. Inside the V-shaped block, a first air chamber and two second air chambers are separated by the two slide plates. On the outer walls at both ends of the V-shaped block, there are several first spray holes. On the outer walls of both dial plates, there are several second spray holes. An elastic tube is connected between one side of the slide plate and one end of the dial plate.

[0008] Further technical solution, several fixing blocks are provided on the upper side of the fixing plate, and several movable blocks are provided on the lower side of the movable plate. The upper side of the fixing block is in sliding contact with the inclined surface on the lower side of the movable block. Inside the connecting block, there is a telescopic connecting tube. The inside of the first elastic airbag is communicated with the inside of the guiding member through the telescopic connecting tube. A heater is installed inside the guiding member. A first connection port is provided for communicating the inside of the guiding member with the first air chamber.

[0009] Further technical solution, the inside of the elastic tube is communicated with the inside of the dial plate. A solenoid valve is provided for communicating the inside of the elastic tube with the first air chamber. A first spring is connected between one side of the slide plate and one side of the second air chamber.

[0010] Further technical solution, several of the V-shaped blocks are in a group at the same height, and several groups of the V-shaped blocks are distributed at intervals along the inclined surface of the guiding member. Adjacent groups of the V-shaped blocks are staggeredly distributed.

[0011] Further technical solution, a chute is provided on the inclined surface on the upper side of the fixing block. A slider is slidably provided inside the chute. The slider is fixedly connected to the inclined surface on the lower side of the movable block. A second spring is connected between one side of the slider and one side of the chute.

[0012] Further technical solution, several avoidance openings are provided on the first elastic airbag. The fixing block and the movable block are located inside the avoidance openings. A first one-way valve is provided on one side of the first elastic airbag.

[0013] For a further technical solution, a limiting block is fixedly provided on each of the two side walls of the feeding trough. One side of the two limiting blocks close to each other is of an inclined surface structure, and the lower sides of the two limiting blocks are respectively in sliding contact with the upper sides of the two ends of the guiding member.

[0014] For a further technical solution, a second elastic airbag is connected between each of the two ends of the guiding member and the two side walls of the feeding trough.

[0015] For a further technical solution, a second connection port is communicated between the inside of the second elastic airbag and the inside of the limiting block. A plurality of spray nozzles are inclined on one side of the two limiting blocks close to each other, and all the spray nozzles face the upper inclined surface of the guiding member. A second one-way valve is provided at one end of the second elastic airbag.

[0016] A conveying method for drying and processing hibiscus flowers includes the following steps: S1: Feeding. Workers place the cleaned hibiscus flowers into the feeding trough. S2: Stirring and dispersing. Utilize the vibration of the feeding trough to vibrate and disperse the piled-up hibiscus flowers, reduce the occurrence of piled-up hibiscus flowers, and is beneficial to improving the drying of hibiscus flowers. S3: Shaking and air-drying. The feeding trough moves back and forth to shake the hibiscus flowers back and forth. By using the back-and-forth movement of the feeding trough to repeatedly squeeze the two elastic airbags, the gas in the two elastic airbags is continuously ejected towards the middle, thereby buffering the vibrating hibiscus flowers, reducing the damage of hibiscus flowers, and air-drying the hibiscus flowers. S4: Vibrating and conveying. Utilize the eccentric wheel vibration mechanism and the connecting rod to drive the feeding trough to vibrate, and the vibration of the feeding trough drives the hibiscus flowers to move, so as to convey the hibiscus flowers into the dryer.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The conveying system for drying hibiscus flowers of the present invention, through the setting of guide members and feed troughs, utilizes the vibration of the feed trough and guide members in conjunction with the upper inclined surface of the guide members, so that the hibiscus flowers are shaken and moved downward along the inclined surface of the guide members, so as to facilitate the vibration dispersion of the hibiscus flowers and move them toward the direction of the dryer, thereby reducing the accumulation of hibiscus flowers. Furthermore, through the setting of guide members, connecting blocks, movable plates, movable blocks, fixed blocks, sliders, and chutes, during the process of the guide members moving up and down, the movable blocks are in contact with the inclined surfaces of the fixed blocks and the sliders slide in the chutes, thereby causing the guide members to move up and down and move horizontally. The horizontal movement of the guide members to shake the hibiscus flowers back and forth is conducive to further dispersing the hibiscus flowers and further reducing the accumulation of hibiscus flowers. Finally, by setting the second elastic airbag, the limit block and the nozzle, the guide member moves back and forth horizontally in the feeding trough to repeatedly squeeze the two second elastic airbags, so that the gas in the two second elastic airbags is continuously ejected through several pairs of nozzles. The gas ejected from the several nozzles is used to cushion the up and down vibrating hibiscus flowers, thereby reducing the degree of damage to the hibiscus flowers caused by the up and down vibration of the guide member, and shaking the hibiscus flowers to dry them.

[0018] The present invention discloses a conveying system for drying hibiscus flowers. Through the arrangement of V-shaped blocks, paddles, slides, and elastic tubes, the guide member moves downward to drive several pairs of connection blocks and movable plates to move downward. The movable plates move downward to squeeze the first elastic airbags, so that the gas in the first elastic airbags enters the guide member through several telescopic connecting tubes. The gas in the guide member enters several first air cavities through several first connecting ports respectively. The gas in the first air cavity pushes two slides to slide in the two ends of the first air cavity respectively. The movement of the two slides drives the movement of the two elastic tubes. The movement of the two elastic tubes pushes the two paddles to swing to both sides. The two paddles swing to both sides to paddle and disperse the hibiscus flowers, thereby reducing the accumulation of hibiscus flowers. Then, through the arrangement of the heater, the first spray hole, the second spray hole, and the electromagnetic valve, the heater is started to heat the gas in the guide member. The hot air in the guide member enters the first air cavity through the first connecting port, pushing the two slides to slide. The sliding of the two slides makes the two ends of the first air cavity gradually communicate with the several first spray holes, so that a part of the hot air in the first air cavity is sprayed out through the several first spray holes to air-dry the hibiscus flowers. The two solenoid valves are opened, so that the hot air in the other part of the first air cavity enters the two paddles through the two solenoid valves and the elastic tube respectively, and the hot air in the two paddles is sprayed out through a plurality of second spray holes. The hot air sprayed out of the plurality of second spray holes has a buffering effect on the hibiscus flowers that are dispersed by the paddles, thereby reducing the degree of damage to the hibiscus flowers caused by the swing of the paddles, improving the effect of the paddles on the dispersion of the hibiscus flowers, and reducing the moisture carried by the hibiscus flowers, which is conducive to improving the subsequent uniform drying of the hibiscus flowers. Finally, the hibiscus flowers on the guide can be fully dispersed by the staggered distribution of the two adjacent groups of V-shaped blocks. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0036] A conveying method for drying and processing hibiscus flowers includes the following steps: S1: Loading, the staff places the cleaned hibiscus flowers into the feeding chute; S2: Stirring and dispersing, using the vibration of the feeding chute to vibrate and disperse the piled-up hibiscus flowers, reducing the piled-up hibiscus flowers, which is beneficial to improving the drying of hibiscus flowers; S3: Shaking and air-drying, the feeding chute moves back and forth to shake the hibiscus flowers, and repeatedly squeezes the two elastic airbags by the back-and-forth movement of the feeding chute, so as to continuously spray the gas in the two elastic airbags towards the middle, thereby buffering the vibrating hibiscus flowers, reducing the damage of hibiscus flowers, and air-drying the hibiscus flowers; S4: Vibration conveying, using the eccentric wheel vibration mechanism and the connecting rod to drive the feeding chute to vibrate, and the vibration of the feeding chute drives the hibiscus flowers to move, so as to convey the hibiscus flowers into the dryer.

[0037] In the initial state, the inclined upper side of the guide member 20 faces the washing machine, and the inclined lower side of the guide member 20 faces the drying machine.

[0038] The specific usage method of the present invention: First, after the hibiscus flowers are washed, they need to be transported into the drying machine for drying. The staff places the washed hibiscus flowers on the inclined upper side of the guide member 20. The control system manipulates the eccentric wheel vibration mechanism 12 to start. When the eccentric wheel vibration mechanism 12 starts, it drives the first movable frame 15 to move back and forth through the transmission rod 16. The back-and-forth movement of the first movable frame 15 drives several pairs of connecting rods 14 to swing back and forth. The back-and-forth swinging of several pairs of connecting rods 14 drives the second movable frame 17, the feeding trough 18, and the guide member 20 to vibrate up and down. By utilizing the up-and-down vibration of the feeding trough 18 and the guide member 20 and the upper inclined surface of the guide member 20, the hibiscus flowers are jittered and moved downward along the inclined surface of the guide member 20, so as to make the hibiscus flowers vibrate and disperse and move towards the direction of the drying machine, reducing the accumulation of hibiscus flowers.

[0039] Secondly, the feeding trough 18 vibrates up and down. The two limit blocks 19 are used to limit the two ends of the guide member 20 in the vertical direction, so that the feeding trough 18 and the guide member 20 can vibrate up and down simultaneously. When the guide member 20 moves downward, the guide member 20 drives several pairs of connecting blocks 25 and the movable plate 23 to move downward. The downward movement of the movable plate 23 drives several movable blocks 30 to move downward. Through the sliding contact between the lower side of the movable block 30 and the upper inclined surface of the fixed block 29, the downward movement of the movable block 30 is guided by the inclined surface of the fixed block 29, so that the movable block 30 moves downward and horizontally to one side. When the movable block 30 moves downward and horizontally to one side, the slider 32 slides in the chute 31, and the sliding of the slider 32 compresses the second spring 33 to generate an elastic force. When the guide member 20 moves upward, the guide member 20 drives several pairs of connecting blocks 25 and the movable plate 23 to move upward. The upward movement of the movable plate 23 drives several movable blocks 30 to move upward. Through the sliding of the slider 32 in the chute 31, the movable plate 23 moves upward and horizontally to the other side to reset. Therefore, during the up-and-down movement of the guide member 20, when the movable block 30 contacts the inclined surface of the fixed block 29 and the slider 32 slides in the chute 31, the guide member 20 moves up and down and horizontally back and forth. The horizontal back-and-forth movement of the guide member 20 shakes the hibiscus flowers back and forth, which is beneficial to further disperse the hibiscus flowers and further reduce the accumulation of hibiscus flowers.

[0040] At the same time, the guide member 20 moves horizontally, and the lower sides of the two limit blocks 19 are respectively in sliding contact with the upper sides of the two ends of the guide member 20, and the side of the two limit blocks 19 close to each other is inclined, which can prevent the hibiscus flower from being out of contact with the guide member 20 during the back and forth movement of the guide member 20, which is conducive to positioning the hibiscus flower on the upper side of the guide member 20. The guide member 20 moves horizontally to one side in the feeding trough 18 to squeeze the second elastic airbag 24, so that the gas in the second elastic airbag 24 enters the limit block 19 through the second connecting port 34, and the gas in the limit block 19 is sprayed out obliquely toward the upper side of the guide member 20 through a plurality of nozzles 36, and the guide member 20 moves horizontally to the other side in the feeding trough 18, and the second elastic airbag 24 has elasticity, so that the second elastic airbag 24 restores its shape, so that the external gas is replenished into the second elastic airbag 24 through the second one-way valve 35. Therefore, the guide member 20 moves back and forth horizontally in the feeding trough 18 to repeatedly squeeze the two second elastic air bags 24, so that the gas in the two second elastic air bags 24 is continuously ejected through the plurality of pairs of nozzles 36. The gas ejected from the plurality of nozzles 36 is used to cushion the up and down vibrating hibiscus flowers, thereby reducing the degree of damage to the hibiscus flowers caused by the up and down vibration of the guide member 20 and shaking the hibiscus flowers to dry them.

[0041] Then, the guide member 20 moves downward to drive several pairs of connection blocks 25 and movable plates 23 to move downward, and the movable plates 23 move downward to squeeze the first elastic airbag 22, so that the gas in the first elastic airbag 22 enters the guide member 20 through several telescopic connecting tubes 26. The gas in the guide member 20 enters several first air cavities 42 through several first connecting ports 41 respectively, and the gas in the first air cavity 42 pushes two slide plates 43 to slide in the two ends of the first air cavity 42 respectively, and the movement of the two slide plates 43 drives the movement of the two elastic tubes 46, and the movement of the two elastic tubes 46 drives the two paddle plates 38 to swing to both sides, and the two paddle plates 38 swing to both sides to pry and disperse the hibiscus flowers, thereby reducing the accumulation of hibiscus flowers. Among them, the sliding of the slide plate 43 compresses the first spring 45 to generate elastic force, and under the elastic force of the first spring 45, the slide plate 43 and the elastic tube 46 can be moved and reset, and the movement and reset of the elastic tube 46 drives the paddle plate 38 to swing and reset, so that the two paddle plates 38 can swing back and forth during the up and down vibration of the guide member 20. The gas in the first elastic airbag 22 is replenished through the first one-way valve 27, so that when the movable plate 23 moves up and down, the gas in the first elastic airbag 22 can be continuously transported to the guide member 20, and the first elastic airbag 22 is elastic and can buffer the up and down movement of the feeding trough 18.

[0042] Meanwhile, the control system operates the heater 13 to start, and the heater 13 starts to heat the gas inside the guide member 20. The hot gas inside the guide member 20 enters the first air chamber 42 through the first connection port 41, pushing the two sliding plates 43 to slide. The sliding of the two sliding plates 43 gradually connects both ends of the first air chamber 42 with a number of first spray holes 39, so that a part of the hot gas inside the first air chamber 42 is ejected through the number of first spray holes 39 to air-dry the hibiscus flowers. And the two solenoid valves 47 are opened, so that another part of the hot gas inside the first air chamber 42 enters the two deflector plates 38 through the two solenoid valves 47 and the elastic tubes 46 respectively. The hot gas inside the two deflector plates 38 is ejected through a number of second spray holes 40, and the hot gas ejected from the number of second spray holes 40 buffers the hibiscus flowers that are toggled and dispersed, reducing the degree of damage to the hibiscus flowers caused by the swinging of the deflector plates 38 and improving the effect of toggling and dispersing the hibiscus flowers, and reducing the moisture carried by the hibiscus flowers, which is beneficial to improving the subsequent uniform drying effect on the hibiscus flowers. And the adjacent two groups of V-shaped blocks 37 are staggeredly distributed, which can fully toggle and disperse the hibiscus flowers on the guide member 20.

[0043] Finally, the feeding trough 18 and the guide member 20 vibrate, causing the hibiscus flowers on the guide member 20 to continuously move towards the inside of the dryer, so as to facilitate the drying process of the hibiscus flowers. A conveying system for drying and processing hibiscus flowers according to the present invention, through the settings of the guide member 20 and the feeding trough 18, by using the vibration of the feeding trough 18 and the guide member 20 in cooperation with the upper inclined surface of the guide member 20, the hibiscus flowers vibrate and move downward along the inclined surface of the guide member 20, so as to facilitate the vibration and dispersion of the hibiscus flowers and move towards the dryer direction, reducing the accumulation of hibiscus flowers. Through the settings of the guide member 20, the connecting block 25, the movable plate 23, the movable block 30, the fixed block 29, the slider 32 and the chute 31, during the up and down movement of the guide member 20, the movable block 30 contacts the inclined surface of the fixed block 29 and the slider 32 slides in the chute 31, so that the guide member 20 moves up and down and horizontally. The horizontal movement of the guide member 20 shakes the hibiscus flowers back and forth, which is beneficial to further disperse the hibiscus flowers and further reduce the accumulation of hibiscus flowers. Finally, through the settings of the second elastic airbag 24, the limiting block 19 and the spray port 36, the guide member 20 horizontally moves back and forth in the feeding trough 18 to repeatedly squeeze the two second elastic airbags 24, so that the gas inside the two second elastic airbags 24 is continuously ejected through a number of pairs of spray ports 36, and the gas ejected through the number of spray ports 36 buffers the hibiscus flowers that vibrate up and down, reducing the degree of damage to the hibiscus flowers caused by the up and down vibration of the guide member 20, and performing a shaking and air-drying effect on the hibiscus flowers.

[0044] A conveying system for drying and processing hibiscus flowers according to the present invention, through the settings of V-shaped blocks 37, dial plates 38, sliding plates 43, and elastic tubes 46, when the guiding member 20 moves downward, it drives a plurality of pairs of connecting blocks 25 and movable plates 23 to move downward. The downward movement of the movable plate 23 squeezes the first elastic airbag 22, so that the gas in the first elastic airbag 22 enters the guiding member 20 through a plurality of telescopic connecting tubes 26. The gas in the guiding member 20 enters a plurality of first air cavities 42 through a plurality of first connection ports 41 respectively. The gas in the first air cavities 42 pushes the two sliding plates 43 to slide respectively at both ends of the first air cavities 42. The movement of the two sliding plates 43 drives the movement of the two elastic tubes 46. The movement of the two elastic tubes 46 pushes the two dial plates 38 to swing to both sides. The two dial plates 38 swing to both sides to disperse and separate the hibiscus flowers, reducing the accumulation of hibiscus flowers. Further, through the settings of the heater 13, the first spray holes 39, the second spray holes 40, and the solenoid valves 47, when the heater 13 is started, it heats the gas in the guiding member 20. The hot gas in the guiding member 20 enters the first air cavities 42 through the first connection ports 41, pushing the two sliding plates 43 to slide. The sliding of the two sliding plates 43 gradually connects both ends of the first air cavities 42 with a plurality of first spray holes 39, so that a part of the hot gas in the first air cavities 42 is ejected through the plurality of first spray holes 39 to air-dry the hibiscus flowers. And the two solenoid valves 47 are opened, so that another part of the hot gas in the first air cavities 42 enters the two dial plates 38 respectively through the two solenoid valves 47 and the elastic tubes 46. The hot gas in the two dial plates 38 is ejected through a plurality of second spray holes 40. The hot gas ejected from the plurality of second spray holes 40 has a buffering effect on the dispersed and separated hibiscus flowers, reducing the degree of damage to the hibiscus flowers caused by the swing of the dial plates 38 and improving the effect of dispersing and separating the hibiscus flowers, and reducing the moisture carried by the hibiscus flowers, which is beneficial to improving the subsequent uniform drying effect of the hibiscus flowers. Finally, by staggering the distribution of adjacent two groups of V-shaped blocks 37, the hibiscus flowers on the guiding member 20 can be fully dispersed and separated.
