[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, the movable installation structure includes several rails 9 vertically arranged on both sides of the drying box 1, and several supporting cross bars 11 are installed on the rails 9 on both sides through sliders 10, and the vertical distances between the several supporting cross bars 11 are the same. The two sides of the material frame 13 are connected to the supporting cross bars 11 through several connecting rods 12, and both ends of the connecting rods 12 are hinged; the rear ends of the several supporting cross bars 11 on the same side are connected with connecting plates 14, and the connecting plates 14 are vertically arranged;

[0026] The synchronous reverse drive structure includes a drive disk 17 and a drive disk 2 18 rotatably mounted in the drying box 1. The drive disk 17 and the drive disk 2 18 are respectively provided with a drive head 19 at their upper edges. The drive disk 17 and the drive disk 2 18 have the same structure and are 180° rotationally symmetrically arranged. The two connecting plates 14 are respectively connected with a drive plate 15 and a drive plate 2 16. The back sides of the ends of the drive plate 15 and the drive plate 2 16 away from the connecting plate 14 are respectively provided with a slide groove 20. The two drive heads 19 are respectively provided with a drive plate 15 and a drive plate 2 16. The drying box 1 is provided with a driving box 21 on the back side, and a motor 22 is provided on the rear side of the driving box 21. The rotating shaft of the motor 22 is connected to a reducer 23 arranged in the driving box 21 after passing through the side wall of the driving box 21. The rotating shafts of the driving disk 1 17 and the driving disk 2 18 are connected to driving gears 24 respectively after passing through the side wall of the drying box 1. The two driving gears 24 are connected to each other through a transmission gear 25, and one of the rotating shafts is connected to the output end of the reducer 23.

[0027] As an optimization scheme of the utility model, a motor 22 is provided to output power, which drives the driving disk 1 17 to rotate after being decelerated by the reducer 23, and drives the driving disk 2 18 to rotate synchronously through the driving gear 24 and the transmission gear 25. The driving disk 1 17 and the driving disk 2 18 are symmetrically arranged. During the rotation process, the two driving heads 19 are symmetrical to each other in the vertical direction with the center point of the driving disk as the center, that is, when the driving head 19 of the driving disk 1 17 rotates to the top, the driving head 19 of the driving disk 2 18 rotates to the bottom position. During the rotation process of the driving disk 1 17 and the driving disk 2 18, the driving head 19 moves horizontally along the slide groove 20. The driving plate 15 and the driving plate 2 16 move in opposite directions, and the driving plate 15 and the driving plate 2 16 respectively drive the connecting plates 14 on both sides to move up and down.

Since the driving plate 15 and the driving plate 2 16 move in opposite directions, the lifting directions of the two ends of the material frame 13 are opposite, that is, when one end rises, the other end falls, and they automatically reciprocate, thereby realizing the shaking of the material frame 13.

[0029] The exhaust structure includes a plurality of air outlet holes 26 opened at the connection between the bottom of the drying box 1 and the top of the base box 2. The air outlet holes 26 are opposite to the collecting drawer 5. The height of the storage bin of the collecting drawer 5 is lower than the height of the inner cavity of the base box 2. A plurality of exhaust holes 27 are opened on the outside of the base box 2. The height of the exhaust holes 27 is higher than the collecting drawer 5.

[0030] As an optimization solution of the utility model, a fan 7 is provided to blow air into the drying box 1, and at the same time a heating tube 8 heats the airflow, and the airflow can flow downward from the air outlet 26 and then be discharged from the exhaust hole 27, and the juice and liquid water flowing down during the drying process can flow down along the air outlet 26 and fall into the collecting bin 5, thereby facilitating collection.

[0031] See also Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, both the collecting drawer 5 and the front door 3 are provided with handles 4 .

[0032] As an optimization solution of the present invention, a handle 4 is provided for easy use.

[0033] The use process of this utility model:

[0034] First, open the front door 3, and then put the tray containing the fruit slices to be dried into the material frame 13, then close the front door 3 and turn on the power to start the equipment. The airflow is heated and blown downward to dry the fruit slices. The air containing moisture is discharged from the exhaust hole 27, and the liquid flowing down will directly enter the collection drawer 5, which is convenient for collection and cleaning. During the drying process, the synchronous reverse driving structure will drive the material frame 13 to shake repeatedly to change the contact angle between the fruit slices and the airflow, thereby improving the drying efficiency. Moreover, the left and right shaking of the fruit slices will not cause a large collision with each other, thereby preventing the fruit slices from being damaged by the collision.

[0035] After the drying is completed, the collecting drawer 5 can be taken out to clean up the liquid or the residue produced after the liquid dries up.
