Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of popcorn, and more specifically to a popcorn cooling and filtering device. Background Art

[0002] Popcorn is a small popping food produced by heating the moisture vapor inside corn kernels at high temperature. Usually after heating, the corn kernels will quickly expand and form a white and soft food. Popcorn can be used as a snack and is popular in movie theaters, family gatherings and other occasions. It is usually served with salt, butter or other seasonings to enhance the taste and flavor.

[0003] The patent with publication number CN219955829U discloses a popcorn drum dehumidification and automatic impurity removal device, which belongs to the same popcorn technical field as the present application. "By starting the water pump body, the coolant in the coolant tank body is driven to enter the first coolant tube through the second coolant tube, and the first coolant tube penetrates the inside of the intake tube. At the same time, by starting the heat dissipation fan, the heat dissipation fan drives the external air to blow into the drum body through the intake tube, so that the wind blown by the intake tube passes through the first coolant tube to form cold wind, so as to quickly clean the inside of the drum body. "Through the drum body, tooth block body, motor body, gear body and pouring plate, the motor body is started to drive the shaft body and the gear body to rotate, and the gear body and the tooth block body are meshed with each other, so that the gear body can drive the tooth block body and the drum body to rotate at the same time, so that the drum body can be rotated to remove impurities from the popcorn. At the same time, the design of the pouring plate makes it easy for impurities to fall into the discharge pipe through the pouring plate, thereby removing impurities through the discharge pipe."

[0004] However, in this comparative patent, it is not convenient to discharge the popcorn after removing impurities. At the same time, the popcorn moves downward along the drum at a fast speed, and the residence time in the drum is short. The filtering and cooling effects are limited, which reduces the practicality of the drum. At the same time, the filter holes on the drum are easily blocked by impurities in the popcorn. The drum in the comparative patent adopts a fixed connection, which is not convenient for cleaning the drum. Utility Model Content
