Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drying, in particular to a bee pollen continuous drying device. Background Art
[0002] Bee pollen is an irregular, oblate mass of pollen grains collected by bees from the stamens of various flowering plants, which is formed by the mixed action of the bees' salivary glands and digestive glands. It is rich in the genetic information of plant life, contains a variety of proteins, amino acids, vitamins, trace elements and active substances, and is known as "all-natural nutritious food" and "concentrated micro-nutrient bank". Bee pollen contains about 25% protein, most of which is free amino acids, which are easily absorbed by the human body. In addition, it is also rich in vitamins, including vitamin B group, vitamin C, vitamin E, etc., as well as a variety of trace elements such as potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, etc. These ingredients make bee pollen have extremely high nutritional value.
[0003] The common drying methods of existing bee pollen include: sunlight drying, ventilation drying, electric heating drying, and kang drying, etc. However, these methods are usually difficult to effectively protect the nutrients and active substances in the bee pollen, and the drying process is very likely to cause fat oxidation, color fission, etc., resulting in poor quality of the dried bee pollen.
[0004] The existing bee pollen continuous drying device has some shortcomings in terms of use effect. It is difficult to stir the wet bee pollen to achieve uniform dispersion, and it cannot be heated evenly during the drying process. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a bee pollen continuous drying device to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:
[0007] A bee pollen continuous drying device comprises a drying box and a base; a partition block is provided inside the drying box, the partition block divides the inside of the drying box into a U-shaped cavity, a blower is fixedly connected to one side of the drying box, and the blower and the cavity are communicated; an air baffle is provided at the lower end of the partition block, the side of the air baffle away from the blower is the drying cavity, an air inlet is provided on one side of the drying box, and the air inlet is communicated with the drying box; a heating component is fixedly provided at the lower end of the partition block, and the heating component is used to heat the air entering from the air inlet; a feed inlet is provided on the side of the drying box opposite to the blower, and the feed inlet is communicated with the drying cavity, a material placement component is provided below the connection between the feed inlet and the drying cavity, and the material placement component is used to place bee pollen; a collecting structure is provided at the upper end of the partition block, and the collecting structure is used to collect the dried bee pollen.
[0008] When drying the bee pollen, the bee pollen to be dried is input into the material loading assembly through the material feeding port, and then the material feeding port is closed; the heating assembly and the blower are started, and the blower extracts the air in the drying box, and the external air enters the drying chamber through the air inlet. The air first passes through the heating assembly, and the heating assembly heats the air entering the drying box. Then the heated air comes to the material loading assembly, and the heated air dries the bee pollen in the material loading assembly. Initially, the bee pollen is relatively moist and heavy, and the suction force of the blower is not enough to suck up the bee pollen. When the bee pollen is dried and its weight decreases, the suction force generated by the blower can suck the bee pollen out of the material loading assembly and into the collecting structure for collection; through the blower and the collecting structure, under the action of the blower, compared with general hot air drying, the wind speed is faster, and by controlling the power of the blower, the suction force generated can suck the dried bee pollen into the collecting assembly, while the incompletely dried bee pollen cannot enter the collecting structure, which is convenient for collection.
[0009] A further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model is that the heating component comprises an air block, a plurality of air passages are arranged on the air block, and electric heating wires for heating the air are fixedly installed in the air passages.
[0010] The above technical solution is adopted, in which a heating wire is arranged in the airway, and the air entering from the air inlet will enter the airway. When the heating wire works, a large amount of heat will be released, and the air will be heated when passing through the airway.
[0011] The further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model is that: the material placing assembly includes a material placing box, the material placing box is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the drying box, and a plurality of air holes are arranged on the bottom of the material placing box; a stirring structure is arranged at the bottom of the material placing box, and the stirring structure can stir the bee pollen in the material placing box.
[0012] The above technical solution is adopted. In this solution, bee pollen will fall from the feeding port into the feeding box. The bottom of the feeding box is provided with air holes. The air flowing out of the airway will flow upward through the air holes. The hot air dries the bee pollen. During the drying process, the hot air can also provide power for the stirring component, so that the stirring component stirs the bee pollen, thereby improving the drying efficiency.
[0013] The further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model is that: the collection structure includes a first partition, the first partition is fixedly connected to the upper end of the partition block, a second partition is fixedly provided on the side of the first partition away from the feed port, and the second partition is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the drying box; a filter plate is provided below the second partition, and the filter plate is fixedly connected to the second partition and the partition block; a collection groove is provided on the partition block between the first partition and the second partition, and a collection box is provided in the collection groove, and the collection box is slidably connected to the collection groove and the drying box. The upper end of the first partition and the lower end of the second partition are both provided with an arc-shaped curved plate.
[0014] The above technical solution is adopted. In this solution, when the bee pollen is sucked by the airflow generated by the blower, the weight of the bee pollen with different degrees of dryness is different. The weight of the bee pollen that is not completely dried is heavier than that of the completely dried bee pollen. Therefore, the position of the bee pollen that is not completely dried is also lower than that of the completely dried bee pollen when flowing with the airflow. The upper end of the first partition is open, and the completely dried bee pollen can enter from the upper end of the first partition. The incompletely dried bee pollen is at a lower position and will be blocked by the first partition and cannot enter. After passing through the opening, the bee pollen will fall into the collection box in the collection tank, and the filter plate can prevent the bee pollen from being discharged with the airflow of the blower.
[0015] A further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model is that the upper surface of the partition block on the side of the first partition plate close to the feed inlet is an inclined surface.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, an inclined plane is provided in the solution, so that the bee pollen that is not completely dried can return to the material storage box along the inclined plane to continue drying.
[0017] A further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model is that the stirring structure includes a rotating shaft, which is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the material storage box, the part of the rotating shaft located above the bottom end of the material storage box is fixedly connected to a stirring rod, and the part of the stirring rod located below the bottom end of the material storage box is fixedly connected to a wind wheel.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the airflow passing through the wind wheel will drive the wind wheel to rotate, and the rotation of the wind wheel drives the rotating shaft to rotate and then drives the stirring rod to rotate, thereby achieving stirring of the bee pollen.
[0019] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the utility model has achieved the following technical progress compared with the prior art:
[0020] 1. The utility model provides a bee pollen continuous drying device. Through a blower and a collecting structure, under the action of the blower, the wind speed is faster than that of general hot air drying, and by controlling the power of the blower, the suction force generated can suck the dried bee pollen into the collecting component, while the incompletely dried bee pollen cannot enter the collecting structure, which is convenient for collection.
[0021] 2. The utility model provides a bee pollen continuous drying device. When the bee pollen is sucked by the airflow generated by the blower, the weights of bee pollen with different drying degrees are different. The weight of incompletely dried bee pollen is heavier than that of completely dried bee pollen. Therefore, the position of incompletely dried bee pollen is also lower than that of completely dried bee pollen when flowing with the airflow. The upper end of the first partition is open, and the completely dried bee pollen can enter from the upper end of the first partition. The incompletely dried bee pollen is at a lower position and will be blocked by the first partition and cannot enter. After passing through the opening, the bee pollen will fall into the collection box in the collection tank, and the filter plate can prevent the bee pollen from being discharged with the airflow of the blower.

The air entering from the air inlet 7 will enter the air duct 10. The electric heating wire will release a large amount of heat when working, and the air will be heated when passing through the air duct 10. Then the heated air will come to the storage box 11. The bottom of the storage box 11 is provided with an air hole 12. The air flowing out of the air duct 10 will flow upward through the air hole 12, and the hot air will dry the bee pollen. During the drying process, the hot air can also provide power for the stirring component, so that the stirring component stirs the bee pollen, thereby improving the drying efficiency. The heated air dries the bee pollen in the storage component. Initially, the bee pollen The bee pollen is relatively moist and heavy, and the suction force of the blower 5 is not enough to suck up the bee pollen. When the bee pollen is dried, its weight decreases, and the suction force generated by the blower 5 can suck the bee pollen out of the loading assembly; when the bee pollen is sucked by the airflow generated by the blower 5, the weights of bee pollen of different dryness degrees are different.

The upper end of the first partition 16 is open, and the completely dried bee pollen can enter from the upper end of the first partition 16. The incompletely dried bee pollen is at a lower position and will be blocked by the first partition 16, so it cannot enter. After passing through the opening, the bee pollen will fall into the collection box 19 in the collection tank, and the filter plate 18 can prevent the bee pollen from being discharged with the airflow of the blower 5.
