Specific embodiments
[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, the embodiment of the present utility model provides a cup air-drying device for catering management, including an air-drying counter 1. An air-drying chamber 2 is fixedly installed on the back side of the air-drying counter 1. A draining pool 3 is arranged in the middle of the air-drying counter 1. Two symmetric rolling card slots 4 are arranged on the upper part of the air-drying counter 1. Two rollers 5 are arranged inside each of the two rolling card slots 4. The upper ends of the four rollers 5 are fixedly connected with an air-drying support 6. A number of groups of storage tubes 7 are fixedly connected to the middle of the air-drying support 6. Each of the number of groups of storage tubes 7 is fixedly connected and composed of several layers of storage racks 8. Cups 9 are placed above each of the several layers of storage racks 8.
[0024] Among them, the air-drying support 6 rolls in the rolling card slot 4 through the roller 5 and can move back and forth inside the air-drying chamber 2 and above the draining pool 3, so that the cups 9 are drained of a large amount of water above the draining pool 3 and then sent to the air-drying chamber 2 for sufficient air-drying, which not only ensures the cleanliness of the working environment but also significantly speeds up the air-drying speed.
[0025] Among them, an electric fan 10 is fixedly installed at the inner bottom of the air-drying chamber 2. A number of groups of equally spaced heating wires 11 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the air-drying chamber 2 are arranged directly above the electric fan 10. A push-pull double-opening door 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the air-drying chamber 2. During air-drying, the double-opening door 12 is closed to form a closed space in the air-drying chamber 2, reducing the pollution of the cups 9 by external dust and preventing the hot air from flowing out, thereby improving the air-drying efficiency.
[0026] Among them, four equally spaced rectangular grooves 13 are provided on the inner side of the storage rack 8. A rotating shaft 14 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the rectangular groove 13. A baffle 15 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the rotating shaft 14. One end of a spring 16 is fixedly connected to the middle of the baffle 15, and the other end of the spring 16 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the storage rack 8. A cup 9 is placed above the baffle 15. When it is necessary to air-dry the cup 9, the cup 9 can be pushed into the storage rack 8 from below the storage rack 8. During the pushing process, the cup 9 touches the baffle 15, causing the baffle 15 to rotate around the rotating shaft 14, and at the same time the spring 16 contracts. When the cup 9 is pushed to leave the baffle 15, the spring 16 rebounds to restore the baffle 15, and the cup 9 is placed down, so that the cup 9 is supported by the baffle 15, and several cups 9 are pushed in sequence.
[0027] Among them, several layers of the storage rack 8 are rotated by several degrees in sequence for each layer, and a diversion pipe 17 is provided inside each layer of the storage rack. Since each layer of the storage rack 8 has a rotation of several degrees, the baffles 15 in each layer of the storage rack 8 will not block each other from the hot air blown from below, and can all be blown by the hot air blown by the electric fan 10 below, and the water on each layer of the cup 9 can flow onto the upper surface of the baffle 15.
[0028] Among them, a diversion pipe 17 is provided inside the air-drying support 6. The diversion pipe 17 receives the water from the inner wall of the cup 9 through the baffle 15 and drains it into the drain pool 3. The baffle 15 extends into the cup 9, and its upper surface contacts the inner wall of the cup 9, and its lower surface can receive the hot air blown by the electric fan 10. The baffle 15 diverts the water attached to the inner wall of the cup 9 into the diversion pipe 17, and then converges into the drain pool 3, accelerating the water drainage speed of the cup 9, and the hot air blown below the cup 9 can be guided into the cup 9 below the baffle 15, greatly accelerating the air-drying speed of the cup 9.
[0029] Working principle:
[0030] Pull out the air-drying support 6 from the air-drying counter, and push the cup 9 into the inside of the storage pipe 7 from below the storage pipe 7. During the pushing process, the cup 9 touches the baffle 15, causing the baffle 15 to rotate around the rotating shaft 14, and at the same time the spring 16 contracts. When the cup 9 is pushed to leave the baffle 15, the spring 16 rebounds to restore the baffle 16, and at this time the cup 9 is placed down, so that the cup 9 can be supported by the baffle 15, and several cups 9 are pushed in sequence;
[0031] After the cup 9 is properly placed, the air-drying bracket 6 is pushed above the draining pool 3. The water on the cup 9 flows into the rectangular groove 13 through the baffle 15 due to gravity, and then flows into the draining pool 3 through the diversion pipe 17. After draining for a period of time, the air-drying bracket 6 is pushed into the air-drying chamber 2, the double-opening door 12 is closed, the electric fan 10 and the heating wire 11 are started for air-drying. After the air-drying is completed, the double-opening door 12 is opened, the air-drying bracket 6 is removed, and the cup 9 to be air-dried next time is pushed in from below the storage pipe 7. At the same time, the cup 9 that has been air-dried is taken out from above the storage pipe 7.
