Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of potato product dryers, and particularly relates to a novel potato product dryer. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of agricultural production, the planting area and yield of potato crops have been continuously increasing, resulting in a corresponding increase in the production of by-products such as potato residues and sweet potatoes. This provides a broad market space for potato product dryers. At the same time, with the continuous development of the feed processing, biomass energy industry, and food processing industry, the demand for dried potato products is also growing continuously. For example, dried potato residues can be used as feed raw materials, and dried sweet potatoes are popular snack products. The growth of this market demand has promoted the expansion of the potato product dryer market.
[0003] In traditional technologies, most machines have relatively simple structures. When faced with a large number of products to be dried, problems such as low efficiency and poor drying effect occur. In addition, most devices use the high temperature generated by directly heating the inside of the device to dry the products. Since the heating elements are usually located inside the device, it is not convenient for inspection and maintenance. The heat may be affected by various factors during the transfer process, such as the device structure and material distribution, resulting in uneven temperature distribution. At the same time, the devices with direct internal heating may have safety risks during operation.
[0004] During the use process, it is found that traditional dryers have low drying efficiency when faced with a large number of potato products, and it is difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production. The quality of the dried products is uneven. Most devices use the internal direct heating method, and the heating elements are located inside the device, which is not only inconvenient for daily inspection and maintenance, but also the heat is easily affected by various factors such as the device structure and material distribution during the transfer process, resulting in uneven temperature distribution during the drying process and affecting the drying effect. During the operation of the devices with direct internal heating, due to the high-temperature environment and complex mechanical structure, there may be certain safety risks, such as fires and burns, which pose a threat to the personal safety of the operators.
