AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, during the low-temperature precooling process of lychees, the heat exchange between the cooling water and the fruit is insufficient, resulting in a slow cooling rate, increased condenser load, and insufficient supply of low-temperature water, which affects the long-distance transportation and storage of lychees.
A low-temperature pretreatment and transportation device for lychees is adopted, which combines an ice maker, a heat-absorbing hollow sleeve, and a circulating guide pipe. The water source is cooled by making ice, and the water source is kept at a low temperature by stirring and circulating it through the heat-absorbing hollow sleeve. The lychees are fully contacted with the cold water and cooled layer by layer through a multi-layer sleeve and support plate structure.
This improved the cooling speed of lychees, reduced the load on the condenser, maintained a continuous output of cooling water, and ensured that the lychees quickly reached a low temperature, facilitating long-distance transportation and storage.
