Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of kelp collection and drying technology, specifically to a kelp collection and drying equipment and a production process for kelp soy sauce. Background Technology

[0002] In the kelp industry, the collection and drying of kelp are key links. Traditional methods rely on manual collection and outdoor drying, which are inefficient, susceptible to weather conditions, and prone to pollution. Therefore, kelp collection equipment is needed to dry and collect kelp in different marine environments in order to improve drying efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and at the same time ensure the nutritional components and quality of kelp.

[0003] However, existing kelp collection and drying equipment typically dries the kelp directly. During the drying process, it's difficult to effectively recover the salt that falls off the kelp, leading to resource waste. Furthermore, the fallen salt cannot be reused, increasing industrial salt waste pollution. The salt also accumulates around the equipment, affecting the working environment and corroding the equipment, thus damaging it and reducing its lifespan. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a kelp collection and drying device and a production process for kelp soy sauce, which solves the problem in the prior art that it is difficult to effectively recover the salt that falls off the kelp during the drying process.

A rotating gear is fixedly installed on the support rod, and the rotating gear is located above the winding roller. A dual-shaft motor is installed inside the mounting box, and connecting rods are installed at both ends of the dual-shaft motor. A transmission gear that meshes with the rotating gear is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting rod. Both the rotating gear and the transmission gear are located inside the filter chamber and the drying cylinder. A hanging assembly for hanging kelp is provided on the hanging rope.

[0014] Preferably, the hanging assembly includes a hook mounted on a hanging rope and a U-shaped plate fixedly mounted on the bottom of the hook.

Multiple compression springs are installed between the two clamping plates and the U-shaped plate, and the multiple compression springs are sleeved around the two insert rods.

[0015] Preferably, the disassembly assembly includes a pull plate fixedly installed on one side of the filter plate and a connecting plate fixedly installed on the top of the collection chamber. The connecting plate is connected to the bottom of the filter chamber and the drying cylinder. The inside of the collection chamber is provided with a limiting component for limiting the filter plate.

[0016] Preferably, the limiting component includes an installation groove on one side of the collection chamber and an installation cavity inside the collection chamber.

[0018] This invention also proposes a production process for kelp soy sauce, comprising the following steps:

[0019] S001. Raw material pretreatment and hanging: Fresh kelp is washed and impurities are removed. It is then fixed to the hanging rope by the compression spring on the hanging component. The power component is started to drive the winding roller to rotate, so that the hanging rope carries the kelp from the connecting chamber into the drying cylinder. During the process, the filter plate initially removes water to prepare for drying and ensure that the kelp is evenly distributed.

[0020] S002. Hot air drying and salt recovery: Hot air is introduced into the drying drum, and the hanging rope moves at a constant speed to heat and dehydrate the kelp. At the same time, the collection component is started, the drive motor drives the linkage rod to rotate, and the drive gear and tooth plate mesh to push the scraper and cleaning brush to reciprocate in the collection hopper, scraping the sea salt precipitated on the surface of the kelp into the collection box, so as to achieve efficient salt recovery.

Pour the fermentation liquid into the collection chamber. Separate solid residues through the detachable assembly. Press the handle to move the insert plate down and disengage the linkage gear from the toothed plate. The filter plate can then be pulled out for cleaning to ensure the purity of the filtrate.

[0022] S004. Sterilization, preparation and filling: After the filtrate is sterilized at high temperature, it is mixed with recovered sea salt in proportion, the salinity and flavor are adjusted, yeast is added for secondary fermentation, and finally sterilized and filled.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:

[0024] This invention, through the arrangement of collection components, uses a drive motor to move the collection box, scraper, and cleaning brush inside the collection hopper, effectively recovering the salt dropped during kelp processing, avoiding resource waste. The recovered sea salt can be reused, thereby reducing enterprise production costs and generating additional revenue. It also reduces industrial salt waste pollution. Furthermore, it reduces salt accumulation around the equipment, improving the working environment and reducing equipment corrosion and maintenance difficulty. In addition, the recovered salt can be reused or further purified, promoting resource recycling and achieving both environmental and economic benefits.

[0025] This invention, through the design of disassembly and assembly components, allows for the rapid removal and cleaning of collected impurities, maintaining the cleanliness of the connecting plate and the collection chamber, reducing the time required for cleaning and maintenance, thereby reducing equipment downtime and improving production efficiency. At the same time, it can prevent impurities from accumulating in the connecting plate and the collection chamber, and ensure that the filter plate is in good filtration condition, thus ensuring the filter plate's filtration effect on impurities.

[0040] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A kelp collection and drying device includes: a filter chamber 1, a drying cylinder 2 installed on one side of the filter chamber 1, a connecting component between the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2, a connecting chamber 5 fixedly installed on one side of the drying cylinder 2, and a collection chamber 9 installed at the bottom of both the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 6 - Figure 8Collection component 3 is located between filter chamber 1 and drying cylinder 2 and is used to collect sea salt. Collection component 3 includes a collection hopper 31 installed between filter chamber 1 and drying cylinder 2 and a collection box 32 installed at the bottom of collection hopper 31. There are two openings inside collection hopper 31, which correspond to collection component 3. A transmission plate 33 is fixedly installed between filter chamber 1 and drying cylinder 2. A pushing component for pushing sea salt is provided on transmission plate 33. The pushing component includes an adjustment seat 37 slidably installed on transmission plate 33 and two scrapers 35 fixedly installed on one side of adjustment seat 37. The two scrapers 35 are inside collection hopper 31. A cleaning brush 36 is rotatably installed on one side of adjustment seat 37 and is located between the two scrapers 35. A driving component for driving the two scrapers 35 to adjust is provided on the side of transmission plate 33 opposite to the two scrapers 35.

[0043] When it is necessary to collect the fallen sea salt, the drive motor 34 drives the linkage rod and drive gear 39 to rotate. As the drive gear 39 rotates, it meshes with the two toothed plates 38. The drive motor 34 is then fixed to one side of the adjusting seat 37, causing the adjusting seat 37 to move as the drive gear 39 meshes with the two toothed plates 38. This movement of the drive gear 39 by the drive motor 34 causes the cleaning brush 36 to rotate simultaneously, effectively cleaning the inner cavity of the collection hopper 31. After the cleaning brush 36 has finished cleaning, the two scrapers 35 move along with the adjusting seat 37, allowing the cleaning brush 36 to clean the inner cavity of the collection hopper 31. Two scrapers 35 can push the sea salt in the inner cavity of the collection hopper 31 until it reaches the opening inside the collection hopper 31, causing the sea salt to fall into the collection box 32. This allows the sea salt inside the collection hopper 31 to be collected, reducing salt accumulation around the equipment, improving the working environment, reducing equipment corrosion and maintenance difficulty. In addition, the recovered salt can be reused or further purified, promoting resource recycling and achieving both environmental and economic benefits. At the same time, the drive motor 34 drives the drive gear 39 to rotate in the opposite direction, enabling the two scrapers 35 and the cleaning brush 36 to move in opposite directions, allowing the adjusting seat 37 to circulate on the transmission plate 33, thereby better cleaning the collection hopper 31.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 - Figure 8As shown, the drive assembly includes a drive motor 34 mounted on one side of the adjustment seat 37 and an opening slot on one side of the transmission plate 33. A toothed plate 38 is fixedly installed inside the opening slot, and a linkage rod is rotatably mounted inside the opening slot. A drive gear 39 that meshes with the toothed plate 38 is fixedly installed on the linkage rod. One side of the linkage rod is fixed to the cleaning brush 36, and the main shaft of the drive motor 34 is connected to one side of the linkage rod. Based on this, by rotating the cleaning brush 36, the sea salt in the inner cavity of the collection hopper 31 can be effectively loosened, so that the two scrapers 35 can scrape and clean the sea salt in the inner cavity of the collection hopper 31. The sea salt can be cleaned quickly, and by rotating the cleaning brush 36, residual sea salt in the inner cavity of the collection hopper 31 can be avoided, which would cause corrosion to the surface of the collection hopper 31, thereby increasing the service life of the collection hopper 31.

[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the connecting assembly includes a support rod 19 rotatably mounted inside the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2, and a take-up roller 8 fixedly mounted on the two support rods 19. A hanging rope 15 is wound between the two take-up rollers 8, with one side of the hanging rope 15 passing through the inside of the connecting chamber 5. Threaded square tubes 7 are installed inside both the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2, and the hanging rope 15 is located inside the two threaded square tubes 7. A power assembly for driving the take-up roller 8 to rotate is provided between the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2. The power assembly includes a mounting box 6 fixedly mounted between the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2, and threaded square tubes 7 installed inside the mounting box 6. A rotating gear 16 is fixedly mounted on the support rod 19, and the rotating gear 16 is located above the take-up roller 8. A dual-shaft motor 17 is installed inside the mounting box 6, and connecting rods are installed at both ends of the dual-shaft motor 17. A connecting rod is fixedly mounted on one side of the connecting rod to the rotating gear. The transmission gears 16 and 18 are meshed. Both the rotating gear 16 and the transmission gear 18 are located inside the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2. The hanging rope 15 is equipped with a hanging assembly for hanging kelp. Based on this, when it is necessary to move the kelp, the dual-shaft motor 17 drives the two transmission gears 18 to rotate, so that the two transmission gears 18 mesh with the two rotating gears 16 at the same time. This enables the two rotating gears 16 and the two support rods 19 to rotate. Consequently, the winding rollers 8 inside the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2 also rotate with the rotation of the two transmission gears 18. Then, one support rod 19 rotates clockwise and the other support rod 19 rotates counterclockwise, causing the hanging rope 15 to move. Thus, the kelp on the hanging rope 15 also moves with the movement of the hanging rope 15, thereby moving the kelp into the filter chamber 1 or the drying cylinder 2 to achieve the drying process of the kelp.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 4As shown, the hanging assembly includes a hook 10 mounted on a hanging rope 15 and a U-shaped plate 11 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the hook 10. Two clamping plates 12 are slidably mounted on the bottom of the U-shaped plate 11, and two insert rods 14 are fixedly mounted inside the U-shaped plate 11. The two clamping plates 12 are slidably mounted on the two insert rods 14. Multiple compression springs 13 are installed between the two clamping plates 12 and the U-shaped plate 11, and the multiple compression springs 13 are sleeved around the two insert rods 14. Based on this, when it is necessary to hang the kelp, the worker pushes the two clamping plates 12 outward. This causes the two clamping plates 12 to slide on the insert rod 14 and compress the compression spring 13, causing the gap between the two clamping plates 12 to expand. Then, the worker places the kelp between the two clamping plates 12 and releases the clamping plates 12, allowing the two clamping plates 12 to reset using the elasticity of the compression spring 13. This achieves the clamping of the kelp by the two clamping plates 12, thus enabling the kelp to be hung and used. Then, the hook 10 is installed on the hanging rope 15, so that the hook 10 and the clamping plates 12 can move with the movement of the hanging rope 15.

[0047] Please also refer to... Figure 9 and Figure 10A disassembly assembly 4 for disassembling and assembling the filter plate is provided on one side of the collection chamber 9. The disassembly assembly 4 includes a pull plate 41 fixedly installed on one side of the filter plate and a connecting plate 42 fixedly installed on the top of the collection chamber 9. The connecting plate 42 is connected to the bottom of the filter chamber 1 and the drying cylinder 2. A limiting assembly for limiting the filter plate is provided inside the collection chamber 9. The limiting assembly includes an installation groove on one side of the collection chamber 9 and an installation cavity 43 inside the collection chamber 9. A toothed plate 44 is fixedly installed on one side of the filter plate. The toothed plate 44 is slidably installed inside the installation groove. A linkage gear 45 that meshes with the toothed plate 44 is rotatably installed inside the installation cavity 43. A reset assembly for resetting the linkage gear 45 is provided inside the installation cavity 43. Based on this, when it is necessary to disassemble and assemble the filter plate, the operator first holds the handle 46 and pushes the handle 46 to one side, so that the connecting rod moves inside the arc-shaped adjustment groove, thereby realizing the rotation of the insert plate 47. Moreover, the insert plate 47 rotates while simultaneously resetting the filter plate. The spring 48 is pressed, causing the insert plate 47 to be pulled out of the tooth groove of the linkage gear 45, thus releasing the limit on the linkage gear 45. Then, the operator holds the pull plate 41 with the other hand and pulls the pull plate 41 outward, causing the filter plate to move with the pull plate 41. At the same time, the toothed plate 44 also moves with the filter plate and meshes with the linkage gear 45, causing the linkage gear 45 to rotate, thus pulling the filter plate out of the collection chamber 9. After replacing the filter plate, the operator releases the lever 46, causing the return spring 48 to elastically return to its original position, and the insert plate 47 is reinserted into the tooth groove of the linkage gear 45, thus limiting the linkage gear 45 and preventing it from rotating. After the filter plate is cleaned, the filter plate and the toothed plate 44 are reinserted into the collection chamber 9. When the toothed plate 44 rotates, it will mesh with the linkage gear 45, causing the linkage gear 45 to rotate, and then the insert plate 47 is used to limit its rotation.

[0048] Please also refer to... Figure 9 and Figure 10 The reset assembly includes an insert plate 47 rotatably mounted inside the mounting cavity 43 and a reset spring 48 fixedly mounted inside the mounting cavity 43. One side of the reset spring 48 is fixed to the insert plate 47, and one side of the insert plate 47 is inserted into the tooth groove of the linkage gear 45. The top of the collection chamber 9 has an arc-shaped adjustment groove that communicates with the mounting cavity 43. A handle 46 is mounted on the top of the collection chamber 9, and a connecting rod is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the handle 46. The connecting rod is slidably mounted inside the arc-shaped adjustment groove, and one end of the connecting rod is fixed to the top of the insert plate 47. Based on this, the elasticity of the reset spring 48 can effectively limit the insert plate 47, allowing the insert plate 47 to be re-inserted into the tooth groove of the linkage gear 45, thereby achieving the limitation of the insert plate 47 on the linkage gear 45.

[0049] Please see Figure 1- Figure 11 In this embodiment of the invention, a production process for kelp soy sauce includes the following steps:

[0050] S001. Raw material pretreatment and hanging: Fresh kelp is washed and impurities are removed. It is then fixed to the hanging rope 15 by the compression spring 13 on the hanging component. The power component is started to drive the winding roller 8 to rotate, so that the hanging rope 15 carries the kelp from the connecting chamber 5 into the drying cylinder 2. During the process, the filter plate initially removes water to prepare for drying and ensure that the kelp is evenly distributed.

[0051] S002. Hot air drying and salt recovery: Hot air is introduced into the drying drum 2. The hanging rope 15 moves at a constant speed to heat and dehydrate the kelp. At the same time, the collection component 3 is started. The drive motor 34 drives the linkage rod to rotate. The drive gear 39 meshes with the toothed plate 38, pushing the scraper 35 and the cleaning brush 36 to reciprocate in the collection hopper 31, scraping the sea salt precipitated on the surface of the kelp into the collection box 32, thus achieving efficient salt recovery.

[0052] S003. Fermentation liquid preparation and filtration: Chop dried kelp, mix it with soybeans and wheat, add salt water for fermentation, and introduce the fermentation liquid into the collection chamber 9. Separate solid residues through the detachable assembly 4. Press the handle 46 to drive the insert plate 47 to move down, disengage the linkage gear 45 from the toothed plate 44, and then pull out the filter plate for cleaning to ensure the purity of the filtrate.

[0053] S004. Sterilization, preparation and filling: After the filtrate is sterilized at high temperature, it is mixed with recovered sea salt in proportion, the salinity and flavor are adjusted, yeast is added for secondary fermentation, and finally sterilized and filled.

10. A kelp soy sauce production process using a kelp collection and drying equipment according to any one of claims 1-9, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: S001. Raw material pretreatment and hanging: Clean the fresh kelp to remove impurities, and fix it to the hanging rope (15) by the compression spring (13) on the hanging component. Start the power component to drive the winding roller (8) to rotate, so that the hanging rope (15) carries the kelp from the connecting chamber (5) into the drying cylinder (2). During the process, the filter plate initially drains the water to prepare for drying and ensure that the kelp is evenly distributed. S002, Hot air drying and salt recovery: Hot air is introduced into the drying drum (2), and the hanging rope (15) moves at a constant speed to heat and dehydrate the kelp. The collection component (3) is started at the same time, and the drive motor (34) drives the linkage rod to rotate. The drive gear (39) meshes with the toothed plate (38), pushing the scraper (35) and the cleaning brush (36) to move back and forth in the collection bucket (31) to scrape the sea salt precipitated on the surface of the kelp into the collection box (32) to achieve efficient salt recovery. S003, Fermentation liquid preparation and filtration: Chop dried kelp, mix it with soybeans and wheat, add salt water for fermentation, introduce the fermentation liquid into the collection chamber (9), separate the solid residue through the detachable assembly (4), press the handle (46) to drive the insert plate (47) to move down, disengage the linkage gear (45) from the toothed plate (44), and then pull out the filter plate for cleaning to ensure the purity of the filtrate; S004.
