AI Technical Summary
When drying in small batches in existing freeze dryers, they need to vacuum the volume in the entire glass cover, resulting in unnecessary increase in work and energy consumption.
A plexiglass cover with a seal adjustment structure is designed. Through the alloy sealing disc and screw mechanism that slide up and down in the glass cover, the effective sealing volume in the glass cover is adjusted, thereby adjusting the volume to be vacuumed.
By adjusting the effective sealing volume in the glass cover, unnecessary energy consumption is reduced and the efficiency of the freeze-dryer is improved.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of freeze drying machines, in particular to a freeze drying machine. Background Art
[0002] A freeze dryer is also called a freeze dryer. A freeze dryer is a cold drying device that freezes water-containing substances into a solid state first, and then sublimates the water in the substance from a solid state into a gaseous state, thereby removing the water and preserving the substance.
[0003] In common freeze dryers, a glass cover is installed on the airtight cover above the cold trap, so that a cavity to be evacuated is formed between the glass cover and the cold trap to facilitate the stacking of material racks and achieve ice crystal sublimation dehydration drying. However, the volume of the existing glass cover is fixed. When we dry in small batches, for example, when only one material rack is placed, the vacuum pump still needs to evacuate the volume of the entire glass cover. Obviously, this will generate unnecessary work and increase energy consumption. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is: in order to overcome the above problems, a freeze dryer is provided, which solves the above problems.

[0007] Preferably, an airtight ring groove is provided on the upper end surface of the freeze dryer, and a sealing rubber ring is embedded and fixed in the airtight ring groove. When the lower end of the organic glass cover is inserted into the airtight ring groove, the sealing rubber ring forms a sealing fit with the inner and outer walls of the organic glass cover, and the airtight ring groove provides strong support for the rubber ring to ensure that it maintains a good sealing fit state, thereby reducing the leakage probability of the organic glass cover and the freeze dryer.
[0008] Preferably, an alloy end cover is sealed on the upper end surface of the organic glass cover, and a screw hole seat is fixedly provided in the middle of the alloy end cover, a screw rod is rotatably provided in the screw hole seat, an alloy sealing disk is slidably provided in the organic glass cover, a sealing ring is embedded in the outer side wall of the alloy sealing disk for forming a seal with the inner wall of the organic glass cover, a rotating seat is fixedly provided on the upper end of the alloy sealing disk, and the lower end of the screw rod is rotatably provided in the rotating seat.
[0009] Preferably, a hand wheel is fixedly provided on the upper end of the screw rod for convenient and labor-saving rotation of the screw rod.
[0010] Preferably, at least one through-vent hole is provided on the alloy end cover, so that air can be easily replenished or exhausted during the up and down movement of the alloy sealing disk.
[0011] Preferably, a rubber sealing ring is glued and fixed on the lower end of the organic glass cover, which can effectively protect the lower edge of the organic glass cover on the one hand, and improve the sealing performance after it is embedded with the airtight ring groove on the other hand.
[0012] The advantages and positive effects of the utility model are:
[0013] An alloy sealing disk with a sealing ring is provided in the organic glass cover for sealing and sliding upward and downward, so that the effective sealing cavity in the organic glass cover can be adjusted according to demand, and the screw rod and the screw hole seat are threadedly rotated by turning the hand wheel, so that the alloy sealing disk is pulled up and down to change the volume of the organic glass cover to be vacuumed, thereby effectively reducing unnecessary energy consumption.
