For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in combination with specific circumstances.

[0030] The following will refer to the attached Figures 1 to 6 The utility model is described in detail in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0031] In general, the utility model relates to a melon seed drying device, comprising a shell 1 with an inner cavity formed therein and an open bottom, an opening 101 opened at the top of the shell 1, a material barrel 2 whose two ends are rotatably connected to two opposite sides of the shell 1, a material port 203 opened on the material barrel 2, and a heating device arranged in the material barrel 2;

[0032] In this embodiment, the entire drying process is carried out in the housing 1, and the melon seeds are placed from the opening 101 to the material opening 203 and finally enter the material barrel 2, and the heating device can dry the melon seeds in the material barrel 2. When the melon seeds are placed in the material barrel 2, the opening 101 and the material opening 203 correspond to each other up and down.

[0033] Among them, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the heating device includes a second motor 3, a connecting shaft 301, a first heating tube 302, a second heating tube 303, a first rotating piece 304, and a second rotating piece 305. The first rotating piece 304 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the barrel 2, and the second rotating piece 305 is rotatably arranged in the barrel 2 on the opposite side of the first rotating piece 304. The first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303 are arranged between the first rotating piece 304 and the second rotating piece 305, and the ends are respectively fixedly connected to the first rotating piece 304 and the second rotating piece 305. It should be further explained that the second motor 3 is arranged outside the housing 1, and the output end passes through the housing 1 and the side wall of the barrel 2 and is fixedly connected to the first rotating piece 304. The first motor 202 is arranged outside the housing 1 on the opposite side of the second motor 3, and the output end passes through the side wall of the barrel 2 of the housing 1 and is fixedly connected.

[0034] In a specific implementation, after the melon seeds are placed in the material barrel 2, the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303 can heat and dry the melon seeds, and the second motor 3 is started, which drives the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303 to rotate, stirring the melon seeds placed in the material barrel 2, so that the melon seeds are dried more comprehensively. Figure 4 As shown, preferably, the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303 are spiral and have opposite spiral directions, and the second heating tube 303 is inside the first heating tube 302. With such a structure, when the motor drives the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303 to rotate, the melon seeds are transported back and forth in the material barrel 2, thereby further increasing the contact area between the melon seeds and the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303, and also increasing the stirring effect, thereby achieving a better drying effect.

[0035] It should be noted that since the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303 are in direct contact with the melon seeds, in order to prevent the melon seeds and the heating tubes from damaging each other, a rubber protective layer is fixedly provided on the outer side walls of the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303 .

[0036] When the drying work is completed, the first motor 202 is started to drive the material barrel 2 to rotate until the material opening 203 faces downward, so that the melon seeds fall from the opening 203 through the open part of the shell 1 for collection. Then the first motor 202 drives the material barrel 2 to rotate to the position corresponding to the opening 101 and the material opening 203.

[0037] As a preferred example, Figure 4 As shown, a connecting shaft 301 is provided between the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303, one end of the connecting shaft 301 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the first heating tube 302, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second heating tube 303. The connecting shaft 301 connects the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303, which can reduce the burden of the first heating tube 302 and the second heating tube 303 and increase the service life.

[0038] As another preferred structure, a plurality of openings 201 are evenly arranged on the material holding barrel 2. When the melon seeds are stirred and dried, some pulp impurities on the surface of the melon seeds may fall off, and the openings 201 can make the impurities fall out of the material holding barrel 2, thus ensuring the neatness of the finished melon seeds.

[0039] In order to further increase the drying effect of melon seeds, Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, a blowing device is provided at the top of the shell 1 at the position of the opening 101, and the blowing device includes a fixed frame 4 fixedly connected to the side wall of the opening 101, a fan 401 arranged in the fixed frame 4, and a filter 402 arranged on the top of the fixed frame 4. The blowing device is symmetrically arranged in two groups, and there is a gap between the two groups of blowing devices for unloading.

[0040] In the specific implementation, the fan 401 is started to blow air toward the material opening 203 of the material barrel 2, which further increases the drying effect, and the filter 402 can filter the air sucked by the fan 401 to prevent the melon seeds from being contaminated. In addition, a shielding door 5 is provided at the gap, and a handle 501 is provided on the shielding door 5. By opening the shielding door 5, the melon seeds are placed in the material barrel 2.

[0041] In addition, a material guiding device is also provided at the bottom of the housing 1, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the material guiding device includes a lower hopper 6, a spring 601 and a vibration motor 602. The lower hopper 6 is tiltedly arranged at the bottom opening of the housing 1 and connected to the bottom of the housing 1 through a plurality of springs 601. The vibration motor 602 is arranged on the bottom surface of the lower hopper 6. One end of the spring 601 is fixedly connected to the lower hopper 6, and the other end is fixedly connected to the housing 1. The spring 601 plays a buffering role when the vibration motor 602 is working.

[0042] After the melon seeds are dried, they will fall from the opening of the housing 1 onto the lower hopper 6, and the vibrating motor 602 will vibrate the melon seeds so that they will slide down from the lower hopper 6, making it easy to collect them. In addition, when the melon seeds and impurities fall down, it is also convenient to collect the impurities.

[0043] Based on the above settings, Figure 1 As shown, in order to facilitate the placement and installation of the drying device, in this embodiment, a bracket 7 for support is fixedly provided at the lower position of the side wall of the shell 1.

[0044] 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, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
