[0026] See attached Figure 1-3A food cooling tower of the present embodiment includes a tower body 100, a cooling unit 200 and a food conveying assembly 300. The food conveying assembly 300 is used to convey food into the tower body 100. The cooling unit 200 is used to cool the food in the tower body 100. The cooling unit 200 includes a cooling fan 210, a hundred-level filter 220 and a semiconductor refrigeration tube 230. A guide member 240 is provided at the air outlet of the cooling fan 210. The wind blown by the cooling fan 210 passes through the guide member 240 and blows toward the semiconductor refrigeration tube 230. A diverter 310 is provided in the middle of the food conveying assembly 300. The diverter 310 includes a plurality of conical covers 311 of different sizes. The plurality of conical covers 311 are equidistantly installed on the center rod, and the conical cover 311 is located below the semiconductor refrigeration tube 230.

[0027] The food conveying assembly 300 of this embodiment is a turret-type conveyor belt. The food conveying assembly 300 spirally conveys the food to be cooled. Two ends of the food conveying assembly 300 extend from two sides of the tower body 100 respectively.

[0028] The guide member 240 of this embodiment includes an outer shell 241 and a partition 242. A plurality of mutually parallel partitions 242 are arranged inside the outer shell 241. An air inlet and an air outlet are arranged on the outer shell 241. One end of the partition 242 is flush with the air outlet, and the other end is arranged in the middle of the outer shell 241. The air inlet faces the cooling fan 210.

[0029] In this embodiment, a plurality of semiconductor refrigeration tubes 230 are placed below the guide member 240 , and the airflow blown out from the guide member 240 is cooled by the semiconductor refrigeration tubes 230 and then blown toward the diverter 310 .

[0030] An air inlet is provided at the top of the tower body 100 of the present embodiment, a 100-level filter 220 is installed at the air inlet, and a cooling fan 210 is connected to the 100-level filter 220 via an air suction hood 250 .

[0031] Working principle: When cooling food, the food to be cooled is transported to the tower body 100 through the food transport component 300, and the cooling fan 210 starts to draw external air through the air suction hood 250. The 100-level filter 220 filters the air. The air that the cooling fan 210 will absorb is concentrated and transported to the semiconductor refrigeration tube 230 through the guide member 240 to cool the airflow. The cooled cold air hits the diverter 310 and diffuses outward along the diverter 310 to cool the food.

[0032] The above working process can meet most of the food cooling needs, and the cooling is uniform and efficient.
