Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of potato storage, in particular to a potato storage box with a heat preservation function. Background Art

[0002] Potato is an annual herb of the Solanaceae family. Potato tubers contain a variety of vitamins and inorganic salts that can prevent scurvy and stimulate hematopoiesis. Potatoes have multiple characteristics as grains, vegetables and fruits. They are one of the important food varieties in many countries in the world and are listed among the seven major food crops, second only to rice, corn and wheat.

[0003] The suitable storage temperature for potatoes is 3-5℃, and the relative humidity is about 90%. 4℃ is the most suitable storage temperature for most varieties. At this time, the tubers are not easy to germinate or germinate very little, and are not easy to shrink. As long as the temperature and humidity are moderate, they can be stored for at least 3 months. If the temperature is too high, the potatoes will sprout or rot. If the temperature is too low, the potatoes are easily frozen and cannot be eaten. However, when potatoes are stored on an ordinary table, the storage environment cannot be monitored and adjusted in real time, which will reduce the quality of the potatoes.

[0004] For this reason, we provide a kind of potato storage box with heat preservation function, in order to solve the above-mentioned problem. Utility Model Content

When the adjusting ball contacts the convex plate, the convex plate will be pressed downward, thereby driving the extension plate to be pressed downward, thereby driving the arc plate to slide along the side surface of the installation ball, so that two fans on a group of air-cooling components can change the air-cooling direction, cooperate with all air-cooling components to achieve all-round air blowing, and improve the air-cooling efficiency. At the same time, during the movement of the extension plate, the second lifting ear and the steel wire rope are cooperated to drive the first lifting ear to move, thereby driving the atomizing nozzle to change the nozzle direction, realizing all-round water spraying, and dynamically controlling the temperature and suitability, thereby solving the problem that the existing storage environment cannot be monitored and adjusted in real time when potatoes are stored on an ordinary desktop, thereby reducing the quality of potatoes.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model is realized by the following technical solutions:

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model. Specific embodiment 1

[0032] See also Figure 1-8 The utility model is a potato storage box with heat preservation function, comprising a storage box 1 and several groups of placement frames 2 inserted between the inner walls of the storage box 1; a water pipe 3 is arranged through the surface of the storage box 1; a mounting ball 4 is fixed to the side surface of the water pipe 3; a plurality of groups of air cooling components 5 are arranged on the side surface of the mounting ball 4; the air cooling component 5 comprises an arc plate 6 slidably arranged on the side surface of the mounting ball 4; an extension plate 7 is symmetrically fixed on both sides of the arc plate 6; a convex plate 8 is fixed to the side surface of the extension plate 7; a mounting column 9 is fixed to the bottom surface of the convex plate 8; a fan 10 is fixed to the bottom end of the mounting column 9; a gear ring 11 is rotatably arranged on the top surface of the storage box 1; an adjusting column 12 is fixed to the bottom surface of the gear ring 11; an adjusting ball 13 adapted to the side surface of the convex plate 8 is fixed to the bottom end of the adjusting column 12.

[0033] The operation process of this embodiment is: put the potatoes 2 inside the placement frame 2 and insert the placement frame 2 into the storage box 1. The storage box 1 is hinged with a sealed door. After all the potatoes are stored in the storage box 1, the sealed door is closed. When the temperature in the storage box 1 is too high, the gear ring 11 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the adjustment column 12 and the adjustment ball 13 to move. The adjustment ball 13 contacts each convex plate 8 in turn. During the process of the adjustment ball 13 contacting the convex plate 8, the convex plate 8 is slowly pressed downward, thereby driving the extension plate 7 to press downward, thereby driving the arc plate 6 to slide along the side of the installation ball 4, and thereby driving the other extension plate 7 to lift upward. Repeating this action during the movement of the adjustment ball 13 can drive the fan 10 to change the blowing direction, thereby realizing all-round blowing and cooling. When the humidity in the storage box 1 is too low, water is passed into the water pipe 3 into the storage box 1 to increase the air humidity in the storage box 1. Specific embodiment 2

[0035] See also Figure 1-8 , based on the specific embodiment 1,.

[0036] Specifically, a gear 14 is rotatably provided on the top surface of the storage box 1 and meshes with the gear ring 11 ; a servo motor 15 is fixed on the surface of the storage box 1 ; and an output end of the servo motor 15 is fixedly connected to the gear 14 .

[0037] Furthermore, a plurality of T-shaped limit grooves 16 are provided on the side surface of the mounting ball 4 ; a T-shaped limit rail 17 slidably matched with the T-shaped limit grooves 16 is fixed on the inner side surface of the arc plate 6 ; and a sliding groove 18 is provided on the side surface of the arc plate 6 .

[0038] Furthermore, a bellows 19 is fixed to the bottom end of the water pipe 3; an atomizing nozzle 20 is fixed to the bottom end of the bellows 19; a plurality of first lifting ears 21 are evenly fixed on the side surface of the atomizing nozzle 20; a second lifting ear 22 is fixed to the bottom surface of the extension plate 7; and a steel wire rope is connected between adjacent first lifting ears 21 and second lifting ears 22.

[0039] Furthermore, a water pump 27 is fixed on the surface of the storage box 1; the water outlet end of the water pump 27 is connected to the water pipe 3; and a water pipe is fixed to the water pump end of the water pump 27.

[0040] Furthermore, a temperature sensor 28 and a humidity sensor 29 are fixed to the inner wall of the storage box 1; a heating wire 30 is fixed inside the inner wall of the storage box 1; a controller is fixed to the side of the storage box 1; the input end of the controller is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 28 and the humidity sensor 29 respectively, and its output end is electrically connected to the servo motor 15, the water pump 27 and the heating wire 30 respectively.

[0041] Furthermore, a plurality of guide grooves 23 are evenly formed on two opposite inner walls of the storage box 1 ; guide rails 24 that slide in cooperation with the guide grooves 23 are symmetrically fixed on two opposite side surfaces of the placement frame 2 ; and the placement frame 2 is inserted between two adjacent guide grooves 23 .

[0042] Furthermore, a plurality of ventilation grooves 25 are formed through the bottom surface of the placement frame 2 ; and a taking groove 26 is formed on the side surface of the placement frame 2 .

[0043] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: potatoes are laid on the surface of the placing frame 2 and the guide rail 24 is inserted into the guide groove 23. After all potatoes are put in, the sealing door is closed. The temperature sensor 28 and the humidity sensor 29 monitor the temperature and humidity inside the storage box 1 in real time and send them to the controller. When the temperature is too low, the controller turns on the heating wire 30 to increase the temperature inside the storage box 1. When the temperature is too high, the controller controls the servo motor 15 to turn on the gear 14, thereby driving the gear ring 11 together with the adjusting column 12 and the adjusting ball 13 to rotate. The adjusting ball 13 contacts each convex plate 8 in turn. When the adjusting ball 13 contacts the convex plate 8, the convex plate 8 is slowly pressed diagonally downward, thereby driving the extension plate 7 downward. The pressure is applied, thereby driving the T-shaped limit rail 17 on the arc plate 6 to slide along the T-shaped limit groove 16 on the mounting ball 4, thereby driving the other extension plate 7 to be lifted obliquely upward. Repeating this action during the movement of the adjusting ball 13 can drive the fan 10 to change the blowing direction and realize all-round blowing and cooling. When the extension plate 7 is lifted, the second lifting ear 22 will be lifted, thereby driving the steel wire rope to pull the first lifting ear 21, thereby causing the atomizing nozzle 20 to be pulled to deviate from the nozzle direction. At the same time, the controller drives the water pumping pipe at the water pumping end of the water pump 27 to pump water and transport the pumped water through the water pipe 3, and finally sprayed out from the atomizing nozzle 20, which can increase the humidity of the air in the storage box 1 and thus improve the quality of potatoes.
