[0022] It should be noted that in the processing of fruit and vegetable products, air drying and cooling is a crucial link. It can not only effectively remove excess oil and heat on the surface of fruits and vegetables, but also maintain the taste of the products and extend the shelf life. However, in the process of air drying and cooling, wind, as a medium for transmitting the cooling effect, will inevitably carry some dust and impurities in the air. These dust and impurities may come from many aspects, such as dust in the factory environment, particles generated when the equipment is running, and even microorganisms in the air. When these wind flows with dust and impurities pass through fruit and vegetable products, they will adhere to the surface of the products and form a thin layer of dirt, which not only reduces the appearance quality of fruit and vegetable products and brings consumers a bad visual experience, but more importantly, these dust and impurities may also become carriers of microorganisms, bringing harmful microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses into the products. Once these harmful microorganisms attach to fruit and vegetable products, they may multiply and grow under suitable conditions, causing the products to spoil. This poses a great threat to the safety and sanitary quality of the products. If consumers eat such products, they may suffer from health problems such as food poisoning, which may even be life-threatening in severe cases. Therefore, solving the problem of dust and impurities carried by the wind during the air-drying and cooling process is crucial to improving the safety and hygienic quality of fruit and vegetable products.

[0023] In this embodiment, the mounting shell 1 serves as the outer shell of the entire device, providing a closed environment to ensure that the air-drying and cooling process is carried out in a relatively stable and clean environment.

[0025] In this embodiment, the collecting box 10 is arranged in the mounting shell 1, and is mainly used to collect the grease generated during the air-drying and cooling process. Since the surface of the fruit and vegetable products may have a certain amount of grease, during the air-drying and cooling process, the grease may be carried away by the wind and drip. The collecting box 10 can effectively collect the grease and keep the inside of the device clean; the design of the collecting box 10 enables the grease to be collected in a centralized manner, which is convenient for subsequent cleaning and treatment. This not only reduces the pollution of the inside of the device by grease, but also improves the sanitary quality of the product; the oil drain pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air-drying and cooling tank 2, and its function is to guide the grease accumulated in the air-drying and cooling tank 2 into the collecting box 10.
