[0051] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0052] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a mushroom drying device comprises a drying box 1 and a material rack 2, and a hot air circulation component is installed on the drying box 1.

[0053] The hot air circulation component includes a tee 4, a first end of the tee 4 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the drying box 1, a second end of the tee 4 is connected to the fan 5, a third end of the tee 4 is connected to the outer space of the drying box 1, a second solenoid valve 28 is installed on the third end of the tee 4, the fan 5 is connected to the dryer 6, the dryer 6 is connected to the heater 7, the heater 7 is connected to the air inlet pipe 8, and the air inlet pipe 8 is connected to the distribution plate 3 in the lower end of the drying box 1.

[0054] The upper end of the drying box 1 is fixedly connected with an exhaust pipe 9, and a first solenoid valve 10 is installed on the exhaust pipe 9. A humidity sensor 11 is installed on the inlet end of the exhaust pipe 9. The humidity sensor 11, the first solenoid valve 10, the second solenoid valve 28 and the controller are electrically connected.

[0055] At the initial stage of drying the mushrooms, the second solenoid valve 28 and the first solenoid valve 10 are opened, and the air outside the drying box 1 is dried by the dryer 6 and then heated by the heater 7. The heated air is distributed by the distribution plate 3 and then blown into the drying box 1 to dry the mushrooms in the drying box 1. Then, the hot and humid air in the drying box 1 is discharged through the exhaust pipe 9, thereby increasing the efficiency of water discharge in the drying box 1.

[0056] In the later stage of mushroom drying, the first solenoid valve 10 and the second solenoid valve 28 are closed, and the hot air circulates in the drying box 1, the three-way valve 4, the fan 5, the dryer 6, the heater 7, the air inlet pipe 8 and the distribution plate 3, and the moisture in the hot air is collected by the dryer 6. At this time, the heat loss in the drying box 1 is small. And at this time, the moisture content in the hot air is small, and the moisture in the hot air can be collected by the dryer 6, which can increase the service life of the dryer 6.

[0057] The opening and closing of the first solenoid valve 10 and the second solenoid valve 28 can be automatically controlled. A threshold value of the moisture content in the hot air is set in the controller. The humidity sensor 11 monitors the moisture content of the hot air discharged from the exhaust pipe 9 in real time. When the moisture content value of the hot air discharged from the exhaust pipe 9 is higher than the moisture content threshold value set in the controller, the first solenoid valve 10 and the second solenoid valve 28 remain open. When the moisture content value of the hot air discharged from the exhaust pipe 9 is less than the moisture content threshold value set in the controller, the first solenoid valve 10 and the second solenoid valve 28 are closed.

[0058] One side of the drying box 1 is open. Supports 12 are fixed at the four corners of the lower end of the drying box 1. The support 12 allows a gap between the lower end of the drying box 1 and the ground.

[0059] The material rack 2 comprises a lower plate 22, and a plurality of universal wheels 23 are installed at the lower end of the lower plate 22. By installing a plurality of universal wheels 23 at the lower end of the lower plate 22, the material rack 2 is conveniently moved.

[0060] A sealing plate 21 perpendicular to the lower plate 22 is fixed at the upper end thereof, and a plurality of filter plates 27 are rotatably connected to the sealing plate 21. Specifically, ear plates 26 are fixed to the sealing plates 21 on both sides of the filter plates 27, and one end of the filter plate 27 close to the sealing plate 21 is rotatably connected to the ear plate 26, and the ear plate 26 is located in the drying box 1.

[0061] A plurality of filter plates 27 are located in the drying box 1, and the sealing plate 21 blocks the opening on one side of the drying box 1. A sealing ring is fixedly and sealedly connected to the opening end of the drying box 1, and the sealing ring is made of high temperature resistant rubber material. The sealing plate 21 is in sealing contact with the drying box 1 through the sealing ring.

[0062] The side of the sealing plate 21 facing the inside of the drying box 1 is elastically slidably connected with a rack 20. Specifically, a plurality of fixed blocks 18 are fixed to the side of the sealing plate 21 facing the inside of the drying box 1, and the plurality of fixed blocks 18 are linearly arrayed in the vertical direction of the sealing plate 21. The rack 20 penetrates the plurality of fixed blocks 18, and the rack 20 is slidably connected to the plurality of fixed blocks 18. A fixed plate 16 is fixed to the sealing plate 21 above the rack 20, and the fixed plate 16 is located in the drying box 1, and the fixed plate 16 is connected to the upper end of the rack 20 through a spring 17.

[0063] A support rod 19 is fixed to the rack 20 below the filter plate 27. The support rod 19 contacts the lower end of the filter plate 27 above it. A driving component capable of driving the rack 20 and the support rod 19 to move downward is rotatably and sealably connected to the sealing plate 21.

[0064] The driving assembly includes a handle 14 rotatably and sealingly connected to the sealing plate 21 . The handle 14 passes through the sealing plate 21 . The handle 14 is located on one side of the rack 20 . A gear 15 is fixed to the handle 14 . The gear 15 meshes with the rack 20 .

[0065] The handle 14 is turned to drive the gear 15 to rotate. When the gear 15 rotates, the rack 20 moves downward and the spring 17 is stretched. When the rack 20 moves downward, the support rod 19 moves downward. After the support rod 19 moves downward, the end of the filter plate 27 away from the sealing plate 21 rotates downward. After the filter plate 27 rotates, the dried mushrooms on it can slide off the filter plate 27. It is convenient to collect the dried mushrooms on multiple filter plates 27.

[0066] When the mushrooms on the filter plate 27 slide off the filter plate 27, the handle 14 is released, and the rack 20 and the support rod 19 move upward under the elastic force of the spring 17. During the upward movement of the support rod 19, the end of the filter plate 27 away from the sealing plate 21 is driven to rotate upward, and when the support rod 19 is restored after the upward movement, the filter plate 27 rotates and restores. At this time, the filter plate 27 is perpendicular to the sealing plate 21.

[0067] A magnetic adsorption component is provided on the open end of the drying box 1 , and the magnetic adsorption component performs magnetic adsorption on the sealing plate 21 .

[0068] The magnetic adsorption component is an electromagnet 13 , and there are four electromagnets 13 . The four electromagnets 13 are respectively embedded and fixed in the side walls around the opening end of the drying box 1 . When the electromagnets 13 are energized, they magnetically adsorb the sealing plate 21 .

[0069] When the mushrooms need to be dried, the mushrooms are distributed on the filter plate 27, and then the material rack 2 is pushed to move, so that the filter plate 27 moves into the drying box 1. During the movement of the filter plate 27 into the drying box 1, the guide rod 24 enters the guide groove 25 through the bell mouth. When the sealing plate 21 contacts the sealing ring, the electromagnet 13 is started, and the electromagnet 13 can absorb the sealing plate 21. The sealing plate 21 is sealed and connected to the drying box 1 through the sealing ring and blocks the opening of the drying box 1. Then the mushrooms in the drying box 1 can be dried.

[0070] Embodiment 2: Based on Embodiment 1, refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the lower plate 22 is located below the drying box 1. A guide rod 24 is fixed to the lower end of the drying box 1, and a guide groove 25 is provided at the upper end of the lower plate 22. The guide rod 24 is slidably engaged in the guide groove 25, and a bell mouth is processed at one end of the guide groove 25 away from the sealing plate 21.

[0071] When the filter plate 27 is placed in the drying box 1, the cooperation between the guide rod 24 and the guide groove 25 can limit the movement of the material rack 2, so as to prevent the filter plate 27 from colliding with the inner wall of the drying box 1 when moving into the drying box 1. By setting the bell mouth, it is convenient for the guide rod 24 to enter the guide groove 25.

[0072] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
