Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vegetable refrigeration devices, in particular to a vacuum pre-cooling refrigeration system for vegetables. Background Art

[0002] The vacuum precooler is a cooling processing equipment that uses vacuum precooling technology and a vacuum pump to extract air and water vapor from a vacuum tank to reduce the air pressure in the vacuum box. Under low pressure, the boiling point of water decreases, the latent heat of evaporation increases, and the free water on the surface of the cooled object vaporizes, taking away its own and environmental heat to achieve a cooling effect. Fresh agricultural products are still vital after harvest, and respiration and other physiological changes continue, which accelerates product aging, withering and yellowing. Low temperature can inhibit physiological changes that cause product deterioration and slow down bacterial growth. The vacuum precooler is not a refrigeration equipment, but a cooling processing equipment. It is a cooling equipment before the product is placed in the storage room or on the shelf.

[0003] However, the existing vacuum pre-cooling refrigeration system for vegetables is inconvenient to use, because the vegetables are usually stored in piles inside the pre-cooler, which leads to poor air circulation inside and reduces the cooling effect. Storing vegetables in piles is not conducive to fully utilizing the space inside the pre-cooler and is more likely to crush the vegetables inside, increasing the cost of refrigeration. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new vacuum pre-cooling refrigeration system for vegetables. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, a connecting rod is installed on one side of the surface wall of the three placement racks, and a refrigeration compartment is opened on one side of the inner wall of the box body.

[0007] Preferably, a refrigerator is installed on one side of the inner wall of the refrigeration bin, and an air outlet pipe is installed on the output end of the refrigerator.

[0008] Preferably, one side of the surface wall of the refrigerant is electrically connected to a power source, and a filter plate is installed at the output end of the air outlet pipe.

[0009] Preferably, a bellows is fastened to one side of the inner wall of the box body, and a fan is installed on one side of the inner wall of the bellows.

[0010] Preferably, a box door is installed on one side of the surface wall of the box body, and a vacuum pipe is connected to one side of the surface wall of the box body.

[0011] Preferably, a vacuum pump is installed on one side of the surface wall of the vacuum tube.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the utility model are:

The power supply 17 provides energy for the refrigerator 16, and the box door 20 is closed to improve the refrigeration efficiency of the inside of the box 1.

[0028] The working principle of this embodiment: when in use, first connect the power supply 17, the user starts the motor 10, the output end of the motor 10 rotates to drive the worm 8 to rotate, the bracket 9 supports the worm 8, the rotation of the worm 8 drives the worm wheel 7 to rotate, the rotation of the worm wheel 7 drives the screw rod 5 to rotate, under the action of the two sliding rods 4, the screw rod 5 rotates to drive the placement rack 2 to move downward on the guide rail 3, the sliding rod 4 and the guide rail 3 also play a role of connecting and supporting the placement rack 2, by lowering the placement rack 2, it is convenient for the user to store the vegetables in layers, thereby making full use of the internal space of the box body 1, then the user starts the motor 10, drives the screw rod 5 to reverse, and then drives the support rack to rise, by the action of the connecting rod 11, the placement rack 2 is evenly spaced. Rise, thereby avoiding air blockage between vegetables, then close the box door 20, and the user starts the refrigerator 16. The refrigerator 16 starts to release cold air, and the cold air generated by the refrigerator 16 is sent into the interior of the box body 1 under the action of the air outlet pipe 15. Under the action of the filter plate 21, it is reduced that water droplets or waste enters the box body 1 and pollutes the vegetables. Then start the vacuum pump 18, and under the action of the vacuum tube 19, the interior of the box body 1 is vacuumed, so that the moisture on the surface of the vegetables evaporates quickly, and the evaporation absorbs heat to achieve rapid cooling, thereby improving the working efficiency of the box body 1 for the refrigeration of vegetables. Finally, the user starts the fan 13 to promote the internal air flow and exhaust of the box body 1 to ensure that the pre-cooling process is carried out efficiently and stably.
