Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of crop preservation technology, and in particular to a carrot drying, preservation, and conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, after carrots are harvested, they typically undergo washing, surface dehydration, and preservation treatments to extend their shelf life and reduce spoilage. Among these, surface dehydration after washing is a crucial step.

[0003] Currently, there are two main methods for dehydrating the surface of carrots: one is centrifugal drying, which uses the centrifugal force generated by the high-speed rotation of the machine to remove water from the surface of the carrot. However, because carrots are long and irregular in shape, they are very prone to collision and friction during the drying process, causing damage such as abrasions and cracks to the carrot skin.

[0004] Another method is hot air drying, which involves laying carrots flat on a mesh belt and using hot air to dry them. While this method avoids damage from impact, it requires a high-temperature environment. If the drying time is too long, the carrots may lose internal moisture, resulting in a pithy core and softened texture. If the drying time is too short, the surface moisture cannot be completely removed, causing the carrots to soften quickly after packaging and thus lose their freshness.

[0005] In addition, most of the existing post-harvest processing steps for carrots use independent equipment and require segmented operations. The connection between the steps is extremely dependent on manual transfer, which makes it impossible to achieve fully automated continuous production and restricts processing efficiency.

[0006] Therefore, a carrot drying and preservation conveying device is needed to remove moisture from the carrot skin without damaging the carrot itself, so as to extend its shelf life and reduce spoilage. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art where centrifugal drying of carrots easily causes damage, hot air drying easily leads to pithiness or incomplete dehydration, and the low efficiency of independent operation of each process. Therefore, a carrot drying, preservation and conveying device is proposed.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a carrot drying and preservation conveying device, comprising a stacking plate, a feeding plate and a cleaning mechanism, and further comprising an arrangement mechanism, a drying mechanism and a detection mechanism.

[0009] The arrangement mechanism includes a fixed frame, a vibrating plate, a drive motor, and an eccentric shaft. The fixed frame is installed on one side of the cleaning mechanism, and multiple drive motors are installed on the outer periphery of the fixed frame. One end of the eccentric shaft is connected to the drive end of the drive motor, and the other end is fixedly connected to the vibrating plate. Multiple V-grooves are formed on the surface of the vibrating plate.

[0010] The air-drying mechanism includes a main fan, a peeling roller, a central main shaft, and a rotating track. The central main shaft is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed frame. The main fan is connected to the upper end of the central main shaft. The rotating track is connected to the end of the vibrating plate. The peeling roller is rotatably installed directly above the connection position between the rotating track and the vibrating plate. Multiple ventilation holes are opened on the surface of the central main shaft.

[0011] The detection mechanism includes a conveyor belt, a monitoring plate, a monitoring mechanism, and a transport belt. The monitoring plate is connected to the lower end of the rotating track, the conveyor belt is slidably connected to the surface of the monitoring plate, the monitoring mechanism is fixedly installed on both sides of the monitoring plate, and the transport belt is located at the lower end of the monitoring plate.

[0012] In the above scheme, after the carrots are cleaned, they enter the vibrating plate of the arrangement mechanism through the feeding plate. Under the vibration of the vibrating plate, the carrots automatically fall into the V-shaped groove and are arranged into multiple columns along the groove to achieve orderly arrangement.

[0013] In the drying mechanism, the peeling roller peels off each carrot in a single row and feeds them into the rotating track. The carrots roll forward in the rotating track, and the airflow generated by the main fan blows out through the ventilation holes on the central main shaft, drying the rolling carrots from all directions.

[0014] After being air-dried, the carrots are sent to a testing facility for surface moisture testing. Qualified carrots are then output via a conveyor belt. The entire system achieves integrated continuous operation of washing, arranging, air-drying, and testing, avoiding collision damage between carrots. Furthermore, surface dehydration can be achieved without high-temperature hot air, effectively protecting the quality of the carrots.

[0015] Preferably, the surface of the vibrating plate has multiple drainage holes.

[0016] In the above scheme, the drainage holes are used to promptly drain the large amount of water droplets remaining on the surface after washing during the carrot vibration arrangement process, so as to avoid water accumulation on the surface of the vibrating plate and affect the arrangement effect of the carrots, while reducing the load of subsequent air drying.

[0017] Preferably, the peeling roller includes a roller body and grooves evenly distributed along the circumference, wherein each groove can accommodate only a single carrot at a time, and the peeling roller is aligned with the V-shaped groove outlet at the end of the vibrating plate.

[0018] In the above scheme, as the peeling wheel rotates, the grooves sequentially align with the V-shaped groove outlets, accepting only one carrot at a time. As the wheel continues to rotate, the carrots in the grooves are carried away from the end of the vibrating plate and fed into the inlet of the rotating track, achieving the separation and orderly conveying of carrots one by one, effectively avoiding blockages and collisions caused by multiple carrots piling up and entering the track at the same time.

[0019] Preferably, the rotating track is arranged in an inclined spiral shape, and its bottom plate and side wall surfaces are provided with multiple water filter holes.

[0020] In the above design, the inclined spiral track allows the carrot to roll automatically downwards under the influence of gravity, requiring no additional driving force. As the carrot rolls, its contact surface with the track constantly changes, ensuring that all parts of its surface are exposed to the airflow. Drainage holes are used to drain water dripping from the carrot's surface, preventing water from accumulating inside the track.

[0021] Preferably, the rotating track is connected to a plurality of guiding mechanisms, each guiding mechanism including a rotating shaft, a drive wheel, a mounting plate, and a chain. The mounting plate is fixedly connected to the edge of the rotating track, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the surface of the mounting plate, the drive wheel is mounted on the drive end of the rotating shaft, and the chain is connected between the plurality of drive wheels. Flexible push plates are fixedly fixed on the chain at intervals.

[0022] In the above solution, the drive wheel drives the chain to move along the track. A flexible pusher plate fixed on the chain moves with the chain, gently pushing the carrot forward along the track from behind. The flexible pusher plate ensures sufficient pushing force on the carrot, and because of its flexible material, it will not cause squeezing damage to the carrot, thus solving the problem that the carrot may stop moving in the track when relying solely on gravity.

[0023] Preferably, the flexible push plate has a triangular cross-section, and multiple flexible rollers are connected to the middle of the flexible push plate.

[0024] In the above scheme, the triangular cross-section ensures surface contact between the flexible pusher and the carrot, increasing the contact area and preventing the carrot's surface from being obstructed, thus affecting the drying effect. The flexible roller rolls when it contacts the carrot, causing the carrot to rotate continuously during its movement. This ensures that the carrot rotates continuously as it moves along the track, guaranteeing even drying.

[0025] Preferably, the monitoring mechanism includes an elastic conductive roller, a controller, and a flip plate. The elastic conductive roller is connected to both ends of the monitoring plate, the controller is fixedly connected to the outside of the monitoring plate, the controller is electrically connected to the elastic conductive roller, and the flip plate is rotatably connected to the inside of the monitoring plate.

[0026] In the above scheme, when the carrots on the conveyor belt pass the elastic conductive rollers at both ends of the monitoring plate, the rollers come into contact with the carrot surface. The surface moisture content of the carrot is determined by detecting its conductivity or resistance value. When the moisture content is found to be within the standard range, the controller controls the flipping plate to flip the carrot and remove it from the qualified product area.

[0027] Preferably, miniature fans are connected to both sides of the conveyor belt, and air pipes are connected to the blowing ends of the miniature fans. Air drying holes are opened on the outside of the air pipes.

[0028] In the above scheme, the miniature fan blows supplemental air onto the carrots on the conveyor belt through the air drying vents on the air pipe, as a secondary reinforcement of the air drying process, to further ensure that the carrot surface is completely dry, while the airflow performs a final cleaning of the carrot surface.

[0029] Preferably, spray pipes are connected to both sides of the conveyor belt, and atomizing nozzles are installed on the outside of the spray pipes.

[0030] In the above scheme, during the transport of qualified carrots on the conveyor belt, a spray pipe evenly sprays preservatives or antibacterial agents onto the surface of the carrots through atomizing nozzles, forming a thin protective film and further extending the shelf life of the carrots. The atomizing nozzles ensure uniform spraying and avoid localized excessive application that could lead to preservative residue.

[0031] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are: 1. This invention uses an arrangement mechanism consisting of a vibrating plate and a V-groove, combined with a vibration mode driven by a drive motor and an eccentric shaft, to automatically arrange the washed carrots into multiple rows along the V-groove on the vibrating plate. At the same time, drainage holes are provided on the vibrating plate to remove most of the surface moisture during vibration, which facilitates and accelerates the subsequent air-drying process.

[0032] 2. This invention uses a drying mechanism to make carrots roll forward in a rotating track, constantly changing the contact surface with the airflow. The airflow generated by the main fan is blown out through the ventilation hole of the central main shaft, drying the carrots from all directions without the need for a high-temperature environment, effectively avoiding the problems of pithy core and softened texture caused by hot air drying.

[0033] 3. This invention achieves automatic detection of surface moisture in air-dried carrots by setting up a detection mechanism consisting of elastic conductive rollers, a controller, and a flipping plate. The elastic conductive rollers contact the carrot surface to detect conductivity, determining whether the surface moisture has been completely removed. Carrots that meet the standards are automatically fed into a conveyor belt by the flipping plate. The detection process eliminates the need for manual inspection of each carrot and has certain standards, significantly improving detection efficiency and accuracy.

[0034] 4. This invention integrates the processes of cleaning, arranging, air drying, testing, and preservation into the same device. The automatic connection between the processes is achieved through a vibrating plate, rotating track, conveyor belt, and transport belt, eliminating the need for manual transfer. This realizes fully automated and continuous production of carrot post-harvest processing, significantly improving processing efficiency and reducing labor costs. Attached Figure Description

[0037] The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 11 A carrot drying and preservation conveying device includes a stacking plate 1, a feeding plate 2, and a washing mechanism 3, as well as an arrangement mechanism 4, a drying mechanism 5, and a detection mechanism 6.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The arrangement mechanism 4 includes a fixed frame 41, a vibrating plate 42, a drive motor 43, and an eccentric shaft 44. The fixed frame 41 is installed on one side of the cleaning mechanism 3, serving as the supporting foundation for the arrangement mechanism 4. Multiple drive motors 43 are fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the fixed frame 41. In this invention, two drive motors 43 are provided, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fixed frame 41. One end of the eccentric shaft 44 is connected to the drive end of the drive motor 43, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vibrating plate 42. When the drive motor 43 rotates, the rotational motion is converted into the reciprocating vibration of the vibrating plate 42 through the eccentric shaft 44. Multiple V-shaped grooves 45 are formed on the surface of the vibrating plate 42. The V-shaped grooves 45 are arranged parallel to each other along the length of the vibrating plate 42, and the spacing between adjacent V-shaped grooves 45 matches the diameter of the carrot, ensuring that the carrot can fall smoothly into the V-shaped grooves 45 without squeezing each other. The vibrating plate 42 is also provided with multiple drainage holes 421. The drainage holes 421 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the V-shaped groove 45. The diameter of the drainage holes 421 is smaller than the minimum diameter of the carrot to prevent the carrot from getting stuck in the hole.

[0040] Reference Figure 4 - Figure 7The drying mechanism 5 includes a main fan 51, a peeling roller 52, a central spindle 53, and a rotating track 54. The central spindle 53 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting frame 41, and is vertically oriented with a hollow interior forming an air duct. The main fan 51 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the central spindle 53 to generate a high-pressure airflow. Multiple ventilation holes 55 are evenly distributed along the axial and circumferential directions on the surface of the central spindle 53. The airflow generated by the main fan 51 passes through the internal air duct of the central spindle 53 and is blown outwards through the ventilation holes 55, with the airflow direction of the ventilation holes 55 facing the rotating track 54. The rotating track 54 is connected to the end of the vibrating plate 42 and receives the carrots output from the vibrating plate 42. The peeling roller 52 is rotatably installed directly above the connection point between the rotating track 54 and the vibrating plate 42, and is driven to rotate by an independent motor. The peeling roller 52 includes a roller body 521 and grooves 522 evenly distributed along the circumference. The cross-section of the grooves 522 is semi-circular or U-shaped, and can accommodate only a single carrot at a time. The peeling roller 52 is aligned with the outlet of the V-shaped groove 45 at the end of the vibrating plate 42.

[0041] Reference Figure 5 The rotating track 54 is arranged in an inclined spiral shape. The upper end of its base plate corresponds to the end of the vibrating plate 42 via the peeling roller 52, and the lower end is connected to the detection mechanism 6. The spiral inclination angle of the rotating track 54 is 15° to 30°, ensuring that the carrots can roll smoothly along the surface of the rotating track 54 under the action of gravity, while allowing different parts of the carrot surface to be alternately exposed to the airflow, ensuring uniform drying. The base plate and side wall surfaces of the rotating track 54 are provided with multiple water-filtering holes 541, with a hole diameter of 3-5mm, which can effectively drain water while preventing water from accumulating on the surface of the rotating track 54.

[0042] Multiple guide mechanisms 542 are connected to the edge of the rotating track 54. These guide mechanisms 542 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the rotating track 54, with a spacing of 30-50 cm between adjacent guide mechanisms 542. Each guide mechanism 542 includes a rotating shaft 5421, a drive wheel 5422, a mounting plate 5423, and a chain 5424. The mounting plate 5423 is fixedly connected to the edge of the rotating track 54 and is spaced apart along the track direction. The rotating shaft 5421 is rotatably connected to the surface of the mounting plate 5423, and the drive wheel 5422 is fixedly mounted to the drive end of the rotating shaft 5421. Multiple drive wheels 5422 are connected to each other via the chain 5424 to form a closed-loop transmission. One of the rotating shafts 5421 is connected to a motor, providing power to the entire guide mechanism 542. Flexible push plates 5425 are fixedly fixed at intervals on the chain 5424. The flexible push plates 5425 move synchronously with the chain 5424, and the spacing between adjacent flexible push plates 5425 matches the length of the carrot, ensuring that each carrot can be effectively pushed. The flexible push plate 5425 is made of food-grade silicone or rubber material, with a triangular cross-section and its pointed end facing the carrot, ensuring surface contact when in contact with the carrot. A flexible roller 5426 is connected to the center of the flexible push plate 5425. The flexible roller 5426 protrudes from the surface of the flexible push plate 5425, and its surface is relatively rough, generating sufficient friction with the carrot surface to drive its rotation. When the flexible push plate 5425 contacts the carrot, the flexible roller 5426 contacts the carrot surface before the push plate 5425. When the flexible push plate 5425 is driven by the chain 5424, the flexible roller 5426 drives the carrot to rotate, ensuring even airflow.

[0043] Reference Figure 8 - Figure 11 The detection mechanism 6 includes a conveyor belt 61, a monitoring plate 62, a monitoring mechanism 63, and a transport belt 64. The monitoring plate 62 is connected to the lower end of the rotating track 54 and receives carrots rolling out from the rotating track 54. The conveyor belt 61 is slidably connected to the surface of the monitoring plate 62 and is driven by an independent motor to transport carrots through the detection area. The monitoring mechanism 63 is fixedly installed on both sides of the monitoring plate 62 and includes elastic conductive rollers 631, a controller 632, and a flipping plate 633. The elastic conductive rollers 631 are connected to both ends of the monitoring plate 62. The spacing between a pair of elastic conductive rollers 631 matches the diameter of the carrot. The surface of the elastic conductive rollers 631 is covered with a conductive rubber layer, providing a certain degree of elastic deformation capability to adapt to slight differences in carrot diameter and ensure good contact. The controller 632 is fixedly connected to the outside of the monitoring plate 62 and is electrically connected to the elastic conductive rollers 631. The controller 632 contains signal processing circuitry and comparison circuitry. The flip plate 633 is rotatably connected to the inside of the monitoring plate 62 and is driven by a micro cylinder controlled by the controller 632. The flip angle of the flip plate 633 is 0° to 90°.

[0044] Miniature fans 611 are connected to both sides of the conveyor belt 61. Air pipes 612 are connected to the blowing ends of the miniature fans 611, extending along the direction of the conveyor belt 61. Drying air holes 613 are opened on the outer side of the air pipes 612, with the air outlet direction of the drying air holes 613 facing the carrots on the conveyor belt 61. A conveyor belt 64 is located at the lower end of the monitoring plate 62 and is used to receive carrots that have passed inspection. Spray pipes 641 are connected to both sides of the conveyor belt 64. Atomizing nozzles 642 are installed on the outer side of the spray pipes 641. The spray angle of the atomizing nozzles 642 is 60° to 120°, capable of covering the entire width of the conveyor belt 64.

[0045] The working process of this invention is as follows: After harvesting, the carrots are first piled on the stacking plate 1, and then orderly fed into the washing mechanism 3 through the feeding plate 2 to remove the mud and impurities attached to the surface.

[0046] After washing, the carrots enter the vibrating plate 42 of the arranging mechanism 4 from the discharge end of the washing mechanism 3. The drive motor 43 starts and drives the vibrating plate 42 to vibrate continuously through the eccentric shaft 44. The vibration frequency is 20-50Hz and the amplitude is 2-5mm. Under the action of vibration, the carrots move forward along the surface of the vibrating plate 42 and automatically fall into the V-shaped groove 45 and are arranged in multiple rows along the groove. A large amount of water droplets remaining on the surface of the carrots drips out from the drain hole 421 during the vibration process. The timely drainage of the drain hole 421 prevents water from accumulating on the surface of the vibrating plate 42, which would affect the arrangement of the carrots, and also reduces the load of subsequent air drying.

[0047] As the carrots arranged along the V-groove 45 advance to the end of the vibrating plate 42, the peeling roller 52 continues to rotate at a speed of 10-30 r / min. The grooves 522 of the peeling roller 52 are aligned with the outlets of the V-groove 45, allowing only one carrot to enter the groove 522 at a time. As the roller continues to rotate, the carrots in the grooves 522 are carried away from the end of the vibrating plate 42 and fall into the entrance of the rotating track 54 under the action of gravity, realizing the separation and orderly conveying of carrots one by one, effectively avoiding blockage and collisions caused by multiple carrots piling up and entering the track at the same time.

[0048] After entering the inclined spiral rotating track 54, the carrot rolls automatically downwards along the track under the influence of gravity. During this process, the drive wheel 5422 of the guide mechanism 542 drives the chain 5424, and the flexible push plate 5425 on the chain 5424 contacts and pushes the carrot from behind. The flexible push plate 5425, with a triangular cross-section, maintains surface contact with the carrot, ensuring a stable pushing force, while its flexible material will not cause squeezing damage to the carrot. The flexible roller 5426 in the middle of the flexible push plate 5425 rolls when it contacts the carrot, causing the carrot to rotate continuously during its forward movement, so that all parts of the carrot surface can be fully and evenly exposed to the airflow. As the carrot rolls forward and continues to rotate in the spiral track, the high-pressure airflow generated by the main fan 51 passes through the ventilation channel inside the central main shaft 53 and is blown out through the ventilation hole 55, thoroughly and evenly drying the carrot that is rolling and rotating in the track. Water dripping from the surface of the carrot is discharged through the drain hole 541 into the track to prevent water from accumulating in the track and affecting the subsequent drying effect of the carrot.

[0049] After drying, the carrots enter the conveyor belt 61 of the detection mechanism 6 from the lower end of the rotating track 54. The conveyor belt 61 transports the carrots through the monitoring plate 62. When the carrots pass the elastic conductive rollers 631 at both ends, the rollers contact the carrot surface, and the surface moisture content is determined by detecting the conductivity of the carrots. The controller 632 receives the detection signal from the elastic conductive rollers 631 and compares it with a preset threshold. When the detected moisture content is lower than the preset threshold, the controller 632 controls the flipping plate 633 to flip the carrot to the qualified product area; carrots with insufficient moisture content do not trigger the flipping plate 633 and continue to move forward with the conveyor belt 61. During this process, the miniature fans 611 on both sides of the conveyor belt 61 provide supplementary airflow to the carrots through the drying air holes 613 on the air pipes 612, as a secondary reinforcement of the drying process, further ensuring that the carrot surface is completely dry, while the airflow performs a final cleaning of the carrot surface.

[0050] Carrots entering the qualified product area fall onto conveyor belt 64. Spray pipes 641 on both sides of conveyor belt 64 evenly spray preservatives or antibacterial agents onto the carrot surface through atomizing nozzles 642, forming a thin protective film to further extend the carrot's shelf life. The atomizing nozzles 642 ensure uniform spraying, avoiding localized excessive application that could lead to preservative residue. Finally, the carrots, after washing, arranging, drying, testing, and preservation treatment, are output from the end of conveyor belt 64 and enter the packaging process.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
