[0019] Workers convey the nuts to be heated into the heating drum 3 through the feeding hopper 9. Subsequently, the motor 7 and the electric heating tube 11 are started. The motor 7 drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating shaft 5 further drives the stirring blades 63 on the rotating shaft 5 to rotate, realizing the stirring and frying of the nuts. After the nuts roll in the heating drum 3, they are dried by the heat emitted by the electric heating tube 11, improving the frying efficiency. It not only saves time and effort but also fries evenly, ensuring the quality of the subsequent obtained nuts. The heat-insulating layer 10 improves the utilization rate of heat and prevents heat dissipation and insufficient utilization. During the nut processing, workers can observe the heating situation of the nuts inside the heating drum 3 through the transparent observation window 32. After heating is completed, the cover is opened, and the heated nuts fall into the aggregate trough 131 through the discharging hopper 12 for centralized collection and processing.

[0020] Such as Figure 3 、 Figure 5As shown, the stirring mechanism 6 includes a connecting rod 61, a connecting block 62, and stirring blades 63. The end of the connecting rod 61 is provided with a thread, and the connecting rod 61 is threadedly connected to the rotating shaft 5.

When the nuts inside the aggregate trough 131 are full, the staff can hold the handle 133 and push the device, and the universal wheels 132 drive the aggregate trough 131 to move. The setting of the universal wheels 132 increases the flexibility and convenience of the device. Move the trough 131 to the storage location, and at the same time install a new collection box 13 at the bottom end of the discharge hopper 12.

[0024] Working process:

[0025] The staff conveys the nuts to be heated to the inside of the heating drum 3 through the feed hopper 9. Subsequently, the motor 7 and the electric heating tube 11 are turned on. The electric heating tube 11 heats the nuts inside the heating drum 3. The electric heating tube 11 generates heat through the resistance wire, directly converting electrical energy into heat energy, with relatively high thermal efficiency. The electric heating tube 11 is simple and convenient to use. Just connect the wire to the power supply, and it can quickly heat up to meet the heating requirements. The price of the electric heating tube 11 is relatively low, and the materials used, such as stainless steel, have good electrical conductivity and a long service life, reducing the initial investment cost and not polluting the environment. The heat insulation layer 10 improves the utilization rate of heat and prevents heat dissipation and waste. The motor 7 drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate. The setting of the protective cover 8 prevents accidents from occurring during the operation of the belt transmission mechanism and ensures the personal safety of the staff. The rotating shaft 5 rotates and then drives the stirring blades 63 on the rotating shaft 5 to rotate, realizing the stirring and frying of the nuts. The nuts roll in the heating drum 3 and are dried by the heat emitted by the electric heating tube 11, improving the frying efficiency. It not only saves time and effort but also fries evenly, ensuring the quality of the subsequent obtained nuts. During the nut processing process, the staff can observe the heating situation of the nuts inside the heating drum 3 through the transparent observation window 32. After heating is completed, the cover is opened, and the heated nuts fall into the inside of the aggregate trough 131 through the discharge hopper 12 for centralized collection and processing. When the aggregate trough 131 is filled with nuts, the staff can hold the handle 133 and push the device. The universal wheels 132 drive the aggregate trough 131 to move. The setting of the universal wheels 132 increases the flexibility and convenience of the device. Move the trough 131 to the storage location.
