[0034] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "vertical", "horizontal", "side", "inner", "outer", "one end", "the other end", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0036] like Figures 1-9 As shown in the figure, a rapid freezing device for abalone production and processing provided in this embodiment of the invention includes an outer frame 1, with a feed inlet at one end of the outer frame 1, the feed inlet being connected to the outer frame 1. A conveying assembly 2 is provided inside the outer frame 1, and a pre-cooling zone 20, a freezing zone 21, and a peeling zone 22 are sequentially arranged on the upper end of the conveying assembly 2, and the pre-cooling zone 20, the freezing zone 21, and the peeling zone 22 are separated by a partition 10. The lower end of the feed inlet is located at the end of the pre-cooling zone 20 away from the peeling zone 22. The device also includes:

[0037] Cooling component 3 is located in freezing zone 21. Cooling component 3 includes an annular cooling pipe 30. The annular cooling pipe 30 is U-shaped and sleeved on the outside of conveying component 2. Multiple nozzles 31 are arranged opposite each other on the inner side of the annular cooling pipe 30, and the nozzles 31 are staggered. One end of the annular cooling pipe 30 is provided with a regulating valve 32, which is connected to liquid nitrogen storage equipment. Cooling component 3 is provided with a cold air circulation mechanism 33, which is located between two partitions 10.

[0038] The precooling component 4 is located in the precooling zone 20. The precooling component 4 includes a precooling pipe 40, which is connected to the cooling component 3 through a connecting pipe 41. The connecting pipe 41 is a telescopic flexible hose. The precooling pipe 40 is U-shaped, and the conveying component 2 is located inside the precooling pipe 40. Multiple jet slots are evenly arranged on the precooling pipe 40.

[0039] In another embodiment of the present invention, the conveying assembly 2 includes two conveying rollers 23, a perforated conveying belt 24 is sleeved between the two conveying rollers 23, and one end of at least one conveying roller 23 is connected to the output end of the conveying motor 25 through a coupling. A crossbar 26 is slidably arranged on the perforated conveying belt 24, and a buffer spring 27 is arranged between the crossbar 26 and the perforated conveying belt 24.

[0040] The specific implementation is as follows: first, the abalones to be frozen are added into the quick freezing device for abalone production and processing from the feeding port, so that the abalones fall from the feeding port to the pre-cooling area 20 of the conveying assembly 2. At this time, the conveying motor 25 drives the conveying rollers 23 connected thereto to rotate, the conveying rollers 23 drive another conveying roller 23 to rotate through the hollow conveying belt 24, and then the hollow conveying belt 24 drives the abalones falling thereon to move from the pre-cooling area 20 to the freezing area 21 and the stripping area 22. When the hollow conveying belt 24 drives the abalones to move, in order to avoid the abalones being stacked to cause insufficient freezing and the stacked abalones being frozen as a whole, the stacked abalones are flattened by the partition plate 10 when the hollow conveying belt 24 drives the abalones to move, so that the abalones are laid in a single layer on the upper end of the hollow conveying belt 24. In addition, the transverse strips 26 can separate the abalones on the hollow conveying belt 24 to prevent the abalones from being stacked, and the transverse strips 26 can squeeze the buffer springs 27 and slide along the hollow conveying belt 24, so that the transverse strips 26 can yield and squeeze the abalones when they move with the hollow conveying belt 24, thereby avoiding the abalones being stuck between the partition plate 10 and the hollow conveying belt 24. When the abalones are laid in a single layer and move with the hollow conveying belt 24, the control valve is opened, the liquid nitrogen storage device sends liquid nitrogen into the annular cooling pipe 30 through the control valve, and the liquid nitrogen entering the annular cooling pipe 30 is sprayed from the nozzles 31 to the abalones on the hollow conveying belt 24, so that the liquid nitrogen freezes the abalones. At the same time, the airflow in the freezing area 21 is fully circulated by the cold air circulation mechanism 33, so that the liquid nitrogen sprayed from the nozzles 31 can fully contact the abalones, thereby allowing the liquid nitrogen to fully freeze the abalones.

[0041] In another embodiment provided by the present application, a tapered column 230 is arranged outside the conveying roller 23 in the stripping area 22, and the tapered column 230 can be inserted into the hollow part of the hollow conveying belt 24.

[0042] The specific implementation is as follows: when the abalones on the hollow conveying belt 24 are frozen by the liquid nitrogen, the abalones move synchronously with the hollow conveying belt 24, in the process, the water exuded by the abalones is synchronously frozen and adhered to the hollow conveying belt 24, which makes it difficult for the hollow conveying belt 24 to drain water through the hollow part. In order to prevent the hollow part of the hollow conveying belt 24 from being blocked by ice, when the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24, the hollow conveying belt 24 bent at the conveying roller 23 can break and discharge the ice in the hollow part. At the same time, the conveying roller 23 in the stripping area 22 inserts the tapered column 230 arranged outside the conveying roller 23 into the hollow part of the hollow conveying belt 24, and the ice in the hollow part is squeezed out by the tapered column 230 inserted into the hollow part, thereby ensuring the drainage effect of the hollow conveying belt 24.

[0043] In another embodiment of the present application, the cooling assembly 3 further comprises a fluctuation mechanism 34, which is arranged inside the conveying assembly 2 and below the freezing area 21.

[0044] The specific implementation is as follows: when the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24, the driving motor drives the fluctuation mechanism 34 to rotate through the conveying rollers 23, so as to make the fluctuation mechanism 34 apply a pressing action to the hollow conveying belt 24. In this way, the fluctuation mechanism 34 can press the frozen abalones through the hollow conveying belt 24, so as to prevent the abalones from adhering to the surface of the hollow conveying belt 24 after being frozen, realize the separation of the frozen abalones from the hollow conveying belt 24, and avoid the problem of difficult discharging of the frozen abalones due to the adhesion of the abalones to the hollow conveying belt 24.

[0045] In another embodiment of the present application, the fluctuation mechanism 34 comprises a rotating shaft 340, one end of the rotating shaft 340 and one end of the conveying assembly 2 are respectively provided with a synchronous wheel 341, the two synchronous wheels 341 are connected through a synchronous belt 342, a plurality of eccentric wheels 343 are uniformly arranged on the rotating shaft 340 along the length direction of the rotating shaft 340, a horizontal plate 344 is arranged inside the outer frame 1, a plurality of lifting rods 345 are uniformly arranged on the horizontal plate 344 along the length direction of the horizontal plate 344, each lifting rod 345 is arranged on the horizontal plate 344 in a sliding manner, and a damping spring 346 is arranged between each lifting rod 345 and the horizontal plate 344, the damping spring 346 is sleeved outside the lifting rod 345.

[0046] The specific implementation is as follows: a synchronous wheel 341 is arranged at one end of the conveying roller 23 connected with the conveying motor 25; when the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate to convey the abalones, the conveying motor 25 drives the synchronous wheel 341 on the conveying roller 23 to rotate synchronously, and then the synchronous wheel 341 connected with the conveying roller 23 drives the synchronous wheel 341 connected with the rotating shaft 340 to rotate through the synchronous belt 342, so that the rotating shaft 340 rotates synchronously with the synchronous wheel 341, and thus the plurality of eccentric wheels 343 arranged on the rotating shaft 340 rotate synchronously, the eccentric wheels 343 extrude the lifting rod 345 when rotating, so that the lifting rod 345 moves in the vertical direction along the horizontal plate 344, and under the joint action of the eccentric wheels 343 and the damping springs 346, the lifting rod 345 can reciprocate on the horizontal plate 344, so that the upper end of the lifting rod 345 extrudes the hollow conveying belt 24, the hollow conveying belt 24 is deformed at the extrusion position of the vertical rod, the hollow conveying belt 24 is bent, and the ice blocks in the hollow part are broken, so as to ensure the drainage effect of the hollow conveying belt 24, and meanwhile, when the lifting rod 345 moves vertically and extrudes the hollow conveying belt 24, the lifting rod 345 can prevent the frozen abalones from being adhered to the surface of the hollow conveying belt 24, so that the frozen abalones are separated from the hollow conveying belt 24, and the situation that the frozen abalones are difficult to be discharged due to the adhesion between the abalones and the hollow conveying belt 24 is avoided.

[0047] In another embodiment provided by the application, the upper end of the lifting rod 345 is provided with a circular arc plate 3450, and the lower end of the lifting rod 345 is provided with a flat plate 3451.

[0048] The specific implementation is as follows: the upper end of the lifting rod 345 is attached to the hollow conveying belt 24 through the circular arc plate 3450, and the circular arc plate 3450 can prevent the lifting rod 345 from being stuck with the hollow conveying belt 24 when the lifting rod 345 rises and extrudes the hollow conveying belt 24; the upper end of the lifting rod 345 is attached to the edge of the eccentric wheel 343 through the flat plate 3451, the flat plate 3451 can expand the contact area between the lifting rod 345 and the edge of the eccentric wheel 343, so as to reduce the wear degree between the lifting rod 345 and the edge of the eccentric wheel 343, and meanwhile, the stable contact between the eccentric wheel 343 and the lifting rod 345 is ensured.

[0049] In another embodiment provided by the application, the cold air circulation mechanism 33 comprises two cylinders 330, the two cylinders 330 are arranged in a symmetrical manner between the two partition plates 10 and are located on the upper side of the partition plates 10, one end of each cylinder 330 towards the pre-cooling area 20 is provided with a fan 331, a plurality of openings 332 are uniformly arranged on the side edge of each cylinder 330 along the circumferential direction, one end of the cylinder 330 provided with the fan 331 is provided with a conical port 333, and the fan 331 is located between the cylinder 330 and the conical port 333.

[0050] The specific implementation is as follows: when the hollow conveying belt 24 conveys the abalones from the pre-cooling area 20 to the freezing area 21 to perform the freezing operation, in order to ensure that the liquid nitrogen entering the freezing area 21 through the annular cooling pipe 30 can be in sufficient contact with the abalones to be frozen, the fan 331 is operated to generate a negative pressure effect, the fan 331 extracts the air and the liquid nitrogen in the freezing area 21 through the plurality of openings 332 on the cylinder 330, so as to promote the flow of the liquid nitrogen in the freezing area 21, thereby ensuring that the liquid nitrogen entering the freezing area 21 through the annular cooling pipe 30 can be in sufficient contact with the abalones to be frozen, and the abalones can be sufficiently frozen by the liquid nitrogen. In addition, the air and the liquid nitrogen in the freezing area 21 extracted by the fan 331 through the plurality of openings 332 on the cylinder 330 are sprayed to the pre-cooling area 20 through the conical opening 333, so that the liquid nitrogen sprayed from the conical opening 333 can preliminarily freeze the abalones falling into the pre-cooling area 20 from the feeding port. In addition, when the liquid nitrogen enters the connecting pipe 41 from the annular cooling pipe 30 after passing through the regulating valve 32, and is sprayed to the abalones in the freezing area 21 from the nozzle 31 to freeze the abalones, the excess liquid nitrogen enters the pre-cooling pipe 40 through the connecting pipe 41. At this time, the liquid nitrogen is sprayed to the abalones in the pre-cooling area 20 from the air injection groove on the pre-cooling pipe 40, so as to preliminarily freeze the abalones.

[0051] In another embodiment provided by the present application, the pre-cooling assembly 4 further comprises a sliding block 42, the sliding block 42 is arranged on one side of the pre-cooling pipe 40, and the sliding block 42 is arranged in a sliding manner on the inner wall of the outer frame 1. The sliding block 42 and the outer frame 1 are arranged with a reset spring 43. The pre-cooling pipe 40 is arranged with a baffle 44 at the upper end.

[0052] The specific implementation is as follows: when the fan 331 extracts the air and the liquid nitrogen in the freezing area 21 through the plurality of openings 332 on the cylinder 330, and sprays them to the pre-cooling area 20 through the conical opening 333, the fan 331 drives the air and the liquid nitrogen to be sprayed from the conical opening 333 and impact the baffle 44. The impact force causes the baffle 44 to displace, thereby driving the pre-cooling pipe 40 and the sliding block 42 to extrude the reset spring 43 and move along the outer frame 1. Under the combined influence of the elasticity of the reset spring 43 and the external force suffered by the baffle 44, the pre-cooling pipe 40 realizes reciprocating movement. In this way, the pre-cooling pipe 40 in reciprocating movement can uniformly spray the liquid nitrogen to the pre-cooling area 20 through the air injection groove. In addition, the connecting pipe 41 can be telescopic to adapt to the movement of the pre-cooling pipe 40 when the pre-cooling pipe 40 reciprocates.

[0053] In another embodiment provided by the present application, the stripping assembly 5 is arranged in the stripping area 22. The stripping assembly 5 comprises a shovel plate 50 arranged in a rotating manner on the inner side of the outer frame 1. The stripping assembly 5 intermittently scrapes the surface of the conveying assembly 2 in the stripping area 22 by means of the shovel plate 50, so as to remove the adhered ice blocks on the surface of the conveying assembly 2 by the shovel plate 50.

[0054] The specific implementation is as follows: after the abalones are frozen in the freezing area 21, the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24, so that the frozen abalones are moved from the freezing area 21 to the stripping area 22. At the same time, the conveying motor 25 drives the rotating shaft 340 to rotate by means of the synchronous wheel 341 and the synchronous belt 342, and then drives the eccentric wheel 343 on the rotating shaft 340 to rotate. When the eccentric wheel 343 rotates, it can drive the shovel plate 50 to reciprocatingly swing in the outer frame 1. The reciprocating swing of the shovel plate 50 can shovel the frozen abalones on the hollow conveying belt 24 and remove the ice blocks adhered to the hollow conveying belt 24.

[0055] In another embodiment of the present application, the stripping assembly 5 further comprises a moving frame 51, which is slidably arranged on the inner side of the outer frame 1. The lower end of the shovel plate 50 is rotatably connected to the moving frame 51. A reciprocating spring 52 is arranged between the moving frame 51 and the outer frame 1.

[0056] The specific implementation is as follows: the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24, so that the frozen abalones are conveyed from the freezing area 21 to the stripping area 22. At the same time, the conveying motor 25 drives the rotating shaft 340 to rotate by means of the synchronous wheel 341 and the synchronous belt 342, and then drives the eccentric wheel 343 on the rotating shaft 340 to rotate. When the eccentric wheel 343 rotates, it can drive the moving frame 51 to be extruded, so that the moving frame 51 extrudes the reciprocating spring 52 and moves upward along the outer frame 1. At the same time, under the joint action of gravity and the reciprocating spring 52, the moving frame 51 drives the lower end of the shovel plate 50 to reciprocatingly swing, so that the shovel plate 50 can shovel the frozen abalones and the ice blocks adhered thereto on the hollow conveying belt 24.

[0057] Working principle: first from the inlet to the abalone production and processing with the quick freezing device to add the frozen abalone, make abalone from the inlet to drop to the pre-cooling area 20 of the conveying assembly 2. At this time, the conveying motor 25 drives the conveying roller 23 connected with it to rotate, the conveying roller 23 drives another conveying roller 23 to rotate through the hollow conveying belt 24, and then the hollow conveying belt 24 drives the abalone falling on it to move from the pre-cooling area 20 to the freezing area 21 and the stripping area 22. When the hollow conveying belt 24 moves the abalone, in order to avoid the abalone stacking leading to insufficient freezing and the stacked abalone frozen as a whole, when the hollow conveying belt 24 moves the abalone, the stacked abalone is flattened by the partition plate 10, so that the abalone is laid in a single layer on the upper end of the hollow conveying belt 24. In addition, the transverse strip 26 can separate the abalone on the hollow conveying belt 24 to prevent the abalone from stacking. At the same time, the transverse strip 26 can extrude the buffer spring 27 and slide along the hollow conveying belt 24, so that the transverse strip 26 can yield and extrude the abalone when it moves with the hollow conveying belt 24, avoiding the abalone being stuck between the partition plate 10 and the hollow conveying belt 24. When the abalone is laid in a single layer and moves with the hollow conveying belt 24, open the control valve, so that the liquid nitrogen storage device sends liquid nitrogen into the annular cooling pipe 30 through the control valve, and the liquid nitrogen in the annular cooling pipe 30 is sprayed from the nozzle 31 to the abalone on the hollow conveying belt 24, so that the liquid nitrogen freezes the abalone. At the same time, the airflow in the freezing area 21 is fully circulated by the cold air circulation mechanism 33, so that the liquid nitrogen sprayed from the nozzle 31 can fully contact the abalone, so that the liquid nitrogen can fully freeze the abalone. When the liquid nitrogen is used to freeze the abalone on the hollow conveying belt 24, the abalone moves synchronously with the hollow conveying belt 24, and in this process, the water exuded by the abalone is frozen synchronously and adheres to the hollow conveying belt 24, which makes it difficult for the hollow conveying belt 24 to drain through the hollow part. In order to prevent the hollow part of the hollow conveying belt 24 from being blocked by ice, when the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24, the hollow conveying belt 24 bent at the conveying roller 23 can break the ice in the hollow part and discharge it. At the same time, the conveying roller 23 in the stripping area 22 inserts the hollow part of the hollow conveying belt 24 through the taper column 230 arranged on the outer side of the conveying roller 23, and the taper column 230 inserts the ice in the hollow part and extrudes it, so as to ensure the drainage effect of the hollow conveying belt 24;

[0058] When the perforated conveyor belt 24 conveys the abalones from the pre-cooling area 20 to the freezing area 21 to perform the freezing operation, in order to ensure that the liquid nitrogen entering the freezing area 21 through the annular cooling pipe 30 can be in full contact with the abalones to be frozen, the fan 331 is operated to generate a negative pressure effect, the fan 331 draws the air and the liquid nitrogen in the freezing area 21 through the plurality of openings 332 on the cylinder 330, so as to promote the flow of the liquid nitrogen in the freezing area 21, thereby ensuring that the liquid nitrogen entering the freezing area 21 through the annular cooling pipe 30 can be in full contact with the abalones to be frozen, so as to achieve the full freezing of the abalones by the liquid nitrogen, in addition, the air and the liquid nitrogen in the freezing area 21 drawn by the fan 331 through the plurality of openings 332 on the cylinder 330 are sprayed to the pre-cooling area 20 through the conical port 333, so that the liquid nitrogen sprayed from the conical port 333 can preliminarily freeze the abalones falling into the pre-cooling area 20 from the feeding port, in addition, when the liquid nitrogen enters the annular cooling pipe 30 from the liquid nitrogen storage device through the regulating valve 32, and is sprayed to the abalones in the freezing area 21 from the nozzle 31 to freeze the abalones, the excess liquid nitrogen will enter the connecting pipe 41 from the end of the annular cooling pipe 30, and then enter the pre-cooling pipe 40 through the connecting pipe 41, at this time, the liquid nitrogen is sprayed to the abalones in the pre-cooling area 20 from the air jet groove on the pre-cooling pipe 40, so as to achieve the preliminary freezing of the abalones; when the fan 331 draws the air and the liquid nitrogen in the freezing area 21 through the plurality of openings 332 on the cylinder 330, and sprays them to the pre-cooling area 20 through the conical port 333, the fan 331 drives the air and the liquid nitrogen to be sprayed from the conical port 333 and impact the baffle 44, the impact force causes the baffle 44 to displace, thereby driving the pre-cooling pipe 40 and the sliding block 42 to extrude the return spring 43 and move along the outer frame 1, under the combined influence of the elasticity of the return spring 43 and the external force on the baffle 44, the pre-cooling pipe 40 realizes reciprocating movement, in this way, the reciprocating pre-cooling pipe 40 can uniformly spray the liquid nitrogen to the pre-cooling area 20 through the air jet groove; in addition, when the pre-cooling pipe 40 reciprocates, the connecting pipe 41 can be telescopic to adapt to the movement of the pre-cooling pipe 40;

[0059] When the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24, the driving motor drives the undulating mechanism 34 to rotate through the conveying rollers 23, so that the undulating mechanism 34 exerts a pressing action on the hollow conveying belt 24. Thus, the undulating mechanism 34 can press the frozen abalones through the hollow conveying belt 24, so as to prevent the frozen abalones from adhering to the surface of the hollow conveying belt 24, realize the separation of the frozen abalones from the hollow conveying belt 24, and avoid the problem of difficult discharge of the frozen abalones due to the adhesion of the abalones to the hollow conveying belt 24. Specifically, a synchronous wheel 341 is arranged at one end of the conveying roller 23 connected with the conveying motor 25. When the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24 to convey the abalones, the conveying motor 25 drives the synchronous wheel 341 on the conveying roller 23 to rotate synchronously, so as to drive the synchronous wheel 341 connected with the rotating shaft 340 to rotate through the synchronous belt 342, and drive the rotating shaft 340 to rotate synchronously with the synchronous wheel 341. Thus, the rotating shaft 340 drives the plurality of eccentric wheels 343 arranged thereon to rotate synchronously. When the eccentric wheels 343 rotate, they exert a pressing action on the lifting rod 345, so that the lifting rod 345 moves in the vertical direction along the horizontal plate 344. Under the joint action of the eccentric wheels 343 and the damping springs 346, the lifting rod 345 can move reciprocally on the horizontal plate 344, so as to exert a pressing action on the hollow conveying belt 24 through the upper end of the lifting rod 345, deform the hollow conveying belt 24 at the pressing position of the vertical rod, bend the hollow conveying belt 24, and break the ice blocks discharged from the hollow part, so as to ensure the drainage effect of the hollow conveying belt 24. Meanwhile, when the lifting rod 345 moves vertically and presses the hollow conveying belt 24, the lifting rod 345 can prevent the frozen abalones from adhering to the surface of the hollow conveying belt 24, facilitate the separation of the frozen abalones from the hollow conveying belt 24, and avoid the difficult discharge of the frozen abalones due to the adhesion of the abalones to the hollow conveying belt 24. The upper end of the lifting rod 345 is attached to the hollow conveying belt 24 through the circular arc plate 3450. When the circular arc plate 3450 rises and presses the hollow conveying belt 24, it can prevent the lifting rod 345 from being stuck with the hollow conveying belt 24. The upper end of the lifting rod 345 is attached to the edge of the eccentric wheel 343 through the flat plate 3451. The flat plate 3451 can enlarge the contact area between the lifting rod 345 and the edge of the eccentric wheel 343, reduce the wear degree between the lifting rod 345 and the edge of the eccentric wheel 343, and ensure the stable contact between the eccentric wheel 343 and the lifting rod 345.

[0060] In addition, after the abalones are frozen in the freezing area 21, the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24, so as to move the frozen abalones from the freezing area 21 to the stripping area 22. Meanwhile, the conveying motor 25 drives the rotating shaft 340 to rotate through the synchronous wheel 341 and the synchronous belt 342, and then drives the eccentric wheel 343 on the rotating shaft 340 to rotate. When the eccentric wheel 343 rotates, it can drive the shovel plate 50 to reciprocatingly swing in the outer frame 1. Through the reciprocating swing of the shovel plate 50, the surface of the conveying assembly 2 in the stripping area 22 is scraped, so as to shovel the frozen abalones on the hollow conveying belt 24, and the shovel plate 50 can also shovel the ice blocks adhered on the hollow conveying belt 24. Specifically, the conveying motor 25 drives the two conveying rollers 23 to rotate the hollow conveying belt 24, so as to convey the frozen abalones from the freezing area 21 to the stripping area 22. At the same time, the conveying motor 25 drives the rotating shaft 340 to rotate through the synchronous wheel 341 and the synchronous belt 342, and then drives the eccentric wheel 343 on the rotating shaft 340 to rotate. When the eccentric wheel 343 rotates, it exerts a pressing force on the moving frame 51, so as to press the reciprocating spring 52 and move the moving frame 51 upward along the outer frame 1. Meanwhile, under the joint action of the gravity and the reciprocating spring 52, the moving frame 51 drives the lower end of the shovel plate 50 to reciprocatingly swing, so as to shovel the frozen abalones and the ice blocks adhered thereon on the hollow conveying belt 24.

Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature, and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the claims of the present application.
