Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of ripening, and more specifically relates to a ripening device with ventilation and air exchange and stable temperature. Background Art

[0002] Ethylene is a plant growth regulator that promotes the softening of fruits. During the storage process, it can rely on the endogenous ethylene released by itself to promote the gradual ripening and softening of fruits.

[0003] Ripening devices are equipment used to accelerate the ripening process of products and are widely used in agriculture, food processing, bioengineering and other fields. In the field of food processing, ripening devices play a significant role in improving product quality. Specifically, ripening devices accelerate the ripening process of fruits and vegetables, making them reach a suitable edible state more quickly, thereby improving the market competitiveness of products and consumer satisfaction.

[0004] Some large ripening devices in the prior art have the phenomenon of over-high temperature during ripening. Although temperature sensors are added in the prior art to control the exhaust fans to ensure the temperature inside the ripening device, the exhaust ports in the prior art are usually of fixed size and cannot be adjusted. The exhaust efficiency is low and there is no way to quickly reduce the temperature inside the ripening device, which needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a ripening device with ventilation and stable temperature, which has the advantage that the sizes of the air outlet and the air inlet can be adjusted according to needs.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

Two support plates are installed on the upper surface of the ripening box, and a screw rod is rotatably installed between the two support plates. The adjustment plate is threadedly connected to the screw rod, and is supported on one of them.

[0009] The advantage of this solution is at least that when the temperature in the ripening box is too high and the ripening box needs to be ventilated, the dual-axis servo motor is started, and the output end of the dual-axis servo motor drives the first bevel gear to rotate and drives the second bevel gear to rotate, so that the inlet fan and the exhaust fan are in operation. At this time, the motor also works and drives the screw rod to rotate, so that the adjustment plate moves on the screw rod and adjusts the size of the pipe openings of the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe to ensure that the temperature in the ripening box is reduced more quickly.

[0010] The utility model is further configured as follows: the screw rod is composed of a left threaded rod and a right threaded rod, and the threads on the left threaded rod and the threads on the right threaded rod are arranged in opposite directions.

[0011] The advantage of this solution is at least that the threads are arranged in opposite directions, and the adjusting mechanisms of the air inlet and air outlet pipe openings can be adjusted by one motor.

[0012] The utility model is further configured as follows: a limiting plate is provided at one end of the adjusting plate to prevent the adjusting plate from falling.

[0013] The advantage of this solution is at least that the setting of the limit plate prevents the adjustment plate from excessively moving on the screw rod and thus sliding off the pipe openings of the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe.

[0014] The utility model is further configured as follows: a rubber pad is pasted on the end surface of the limiting plate.

[0015] The advantage of this solution is at least that the rubber pad can, to a certain extent, prevent the adjustment plate from directly hitting the inner walls of the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe.

[0016] The utility model is further configured as follows: a filter device for filtering air is provided at the pipe openings of the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe, the filter device comprises: a filter frame and a filter cloth, the filter frame is slidably installed at the pipe openings of the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe, and the filter cloth is fixedly installed on the filter frame.

[0017] The advantages of this solution are at least that the filter device can filter the air when it enters and leaves the room, thereby improving the quality of the air entering the ripening box and filtering out pollutants and particulate matter discharged from the ripening box.

[0018] The utility model is further configured as follows: a handle is provided at one end of the filter frame, and a flexible member is fixedly mounted on the handle.

[0019] The advantages of this solution are at least that the provision of the handle makes it easier to remove the filter frame from the openings of the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe, and the provision of the flexible member improves the comfort of the operator's grip.

[0020] The utility model is further configured as follows: a protective shell is installed on the outer walls of the regulating mechanism, the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe.

[0021] The advantages of this solution are at least that the provision of the protective shell can prevent dirt and debris from being entangled on the screw rod, thereby affecting the adjustment mechanism, and also prevent the adjustment mechanism from being exposed to rain, thereby increasing the service life of the adjustment mechanism.

[0022] In summary, the utility model has at least the following advantages:

[0023] 1. By setting up an adjustment mechanism, when the temperature in the ripening box is too high and the ripening box needs to be ventilated, the double-axis servo motor is started, and the output end of the double-axis servo motor drives the first bevel gear to rotate and drives the second bevel gear to rotate, so that the inlet fan and the exhaust fan are running. At this time, the motor also works and drives the screw rod to rotate, so that the adjustment plate moves on the screw rod and adjusts the size of the inlet and outlet pipes to ensure that the temperature in the ripening box is reduced more quickly;

[0024] 2. By setting the limit plate and rubber pad, the setting of the limit plate can prevent the adjustment plate from excessively moving on the screw rod and thus slipping from the pipe openings of the air inlet and outlet pipes. The role of the rubber pad can, to a certain extent, prevent the adjustment plate from directly hitting the inner wall of the air inlet and outlet pipes;

[0025] 3. By setting up a filtering device, the air can be filtered when it is inlet and outlet, thereby improving the air quality entering the ripening box and filtering out pollutants and particulate matter discharged from the ripening box. The setting of the handle makes it easier to remove the filter frame from the pipe openings of the air inlet and outlet pipes, and the setting of the flexible part improves the comfort of the operator's grip.
