Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a cooling device for producing crispy peppers, and belongs to the technical field of crispy pepper processing. Background Art

[0002] Crispy pepper is a food seasoning with a special taste. It is also a nutritious vegetable that is deeply loved by the general public. In the production process of crispy pepper, the pepper needs to be wrapped in flour and fried. After the fried crispy pepper is cooled, it is mixed with spices to obtain the crispy pepper. However, when the pepper is exported from the fryer and transported on the conveyor belt, it is easy to become mushy and stick to the conveyor belt, which will affect the taste of the crispy pepper. It is necessary to study and improve this. Utility Model Content

[0003] Based on the above, the utility model provides a cooling device for the production of crispy peppers, which overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art by installing a cooling shell, a cooling pipe and a blowing mechanism on a conveyor belt.

[0004] The technical solution of the utility model is: a cooling device for producing crispy peppers, comprising:

[0005] A conveying unit, comprising a frame and a conveyor belt, wherein the conveyor belt is rotatably mounted on the frame, the frame is inclined, and the lower end of the conveyor belt extends to the tail of the fryer;

[0006] The cooling unit comprises a cooling shell, a cooling pipe and an air blowing mechanism. The cooling shell is mounted on the frame and located above the conveyor belt. The cooling pipe is arranged on the inner wall of the cooling shell. The air blowing mechanism is installed in the cooling shell.

[0007] In one example, the cooling shell is square in shape, the cooling pipe is arranged on the left and right opposite side walls of the cooling shell, and the blowing mechanism is arranged on the inner top surface of the cooling shell.

[0008] In one example, fly-blocking nets are provided on both sides of the cooling shell at a predetermined distance from both ends thereof, the fly-blocking nets are suspended in the cooling shell, and there is a space for peppers to pass through between the bottom of the fly-blocking nets and the conveyor belt, and the blowing mechanism is installed between the two fly-blocking nets.

[0009] In one example, the cooling pipe is arranged in an S shape on the inner wall surface of the cooling shell, and the cooling pipe is circulatedly connected to the cooling water pool through a water pump.

[0010] In one example, the blowing mechanism includes two exhaust pipes spaced apart on the inner top surface of the cooling shell, air nozzles are spaced apart on the air pipes, and the air nozzles on each row of the air pipes are arranged opposite to each other and tilted downward.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: compared with the prior art, the utility model installs a cooling shell, a cooling pipe and an air blowing mechanism on the existing conveyor belt, and the fried peppers enter the conveyor belt from the fryer. In the process of the conveyor belt conveying them upward, the fried peppers enter the cooling channel, and the cooling pipe exchanges heat with the air in the cooling channel, so that the air temperature in the cooling channel is reduced to cool the fried peppers. At the same time, the air blowing mechanism blows toward the fried peppers, which cools them on the one hand and makes them jump to avoid sticking to the conveyor belt on the other hand. The utility model can fully cool the fried peppers and avoid sticking to the conveyor belt. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0017] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the utility model more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation of the utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the utility model. However, the utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the utility model, so the utility model is not limited by the specific implementation disclosed below.

[0018] See also Figures 1 to 3 , this embodiment provides a cooling device for producing crispy peppers, including a conveying unit and a cooling unit.

[0019] The conveying unit comprises a frame 1 and a conveyor belt 2. The frame 1 is inclined. The conveyor belt 2 is rotatably mounted on the frame 1. The lower end of the conveyor belt 2 extends to the tail of the fryer so as to guide the fried peppers out.

[0020] The cooling unit includes a cooling shell 3, a cooling pipe 4 and a blowing mechanism. The cooling shell 3 is square in shape, mounted on the frame 1, and located above the conveyor belt 2, so that the conveyor belt 2 and the cooling shell 3 together form a cooling channel, through which the peppers pass. The cooling pipe 4 is arranged on the left and right opposite side walls of the cooling shell 3, and the cooling pipe 4 is arranged in an S shape on the inner wall of the cooling shell 3. The cooling pipe 4 is connected to the cooling water pool through a water pump. The air in the cooling channel can be cooled by the cooling pipe 4. The cooling pipe 4 can be an iron pipe with a plurality of fins arranged thereon for heat exchange. The blowing mechanism is installed on the inner top surface of the cooling shell 3. The blowing mechanism includes two exhaust pipes 5 arranged at intervals on the inner top surface of the cooling shell 3. Air nozzles 6 are arranged at intervals on the air pipes 5. The air nozzles 6 on each exhaust pipe 5 are arranged opposite to each other and tilted downward. This structure allows the air nozzles 6 to blow toward the conveyor belt 2 at a certain angle (non-vertical), so that the peppers jump and try not to stick to the surface of the conveyor belt 2 to avoid adhesion to the conveyor belt 2.

[0021] Fly-blocking nets 7 are installed on both sides of the cooling shell 3 at a distance from both ends. The fly-blocking nets 7 are suspended in the cooling shell 3, and their tops are connected to the cooling shell 3. There is space for peppers to pass through between the bottom of the fly-blocking net 7 and the conveyor belt 2, thereby preventing the peppers from splashing and flying out.

[0022] The working principle of the cooling device for producing crispy peppers is as follows: the fried peppers enter the conveyor belt 2 from the fryer, and when the conveyor belt 2 conveys them upward, the fried peppers enter the cooling channel, and the cooling tube 4 exchanges heat with the air in the cooling channel, so that the air temperature in the cooling channel is reduced to cool the fried peppers. At the same time, the blowing mechanism blows towards the fried peppers, which cools them on the one hand and makes them bounce to avoid sticking to the conveyor belt 2 on the other hand. Compared with the prior art, the utility model can fully cool the fried peppers and prevent them from sticking to the conveyor belt 2 by installing the cooling shell 3, the cooling tube 4 and the blowing mechanism on the existing conveyor belt 2.

[0023] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, and these all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
