[0002] A vegetable drying and dehydrating device is a device specifically used to remove moisture from vegetables and achieve drying. It usually consists of a heating system, a fan system, a moisture exhaust system, and a control system. The heating system provides heat energy to heat the moisture in the vegetables and convert it into steam. The fan system is mainly responsible for generating air flow to take away the moisture on the surface of the vegetables and exhaust the steam. By circulating air, the evaporation rate of the moisture in the vegetables can be accelerated, thus achieving the effect of rapid drying. The moisture exhaust system is used to handle the moisture in the steam. The control system is responsible for monitoring and regulating the entire drying and dehydrating process, including the control of parameters such as temperature, humidity, and time.

A dehumidification plate is also installed inside the machine body to absorb the water vapor in the machine body. There are four bases at the bottom to provide stability for the device. However, there is a problem that it is not convenient to clean the water drainage plate, and manual cleaning is inconvenient and prone to bacteria breeding. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The utility model provides a low-temperature and high-efficiency vegetable drying and dehydrating device, which solves the problem that the low-temperature and high-efficiency vegetable drying and dehydrating device proposed in a Chinese patent with the publication number CN221197808U is not convenient to clean the water drainage plate, and manual cleaning is inconvenient and prone to bacteria breeding.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present utility model provides the following technical solution: A low-temperature and high-efficiency vegetable drying and dehydration equipment, comprising a cabinet body, a drying system, and a control panel. A cabinet door is hinged to the front end of the cabinet body, and a top plate and a bottom plate are fixed inside. A motor is provided on the top surface of the top plate. The output end of the motor drives a rotating shaft downward. The two ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably arranged on the top plate and the bottom plate. A plurality of layers of circular plates are evenly and coaxially fixed on the rotating shaft. A water pump is fixed on the top plate. The water pump is connected to a suction pipe of an external water supply pipe and a pipe head that penetrates downward through the top plate. The pipe head is connected to a sliding pipe downward. A column is fixed on the bottom plate. The two ends of the sliding pipe are respectively vertically slid and sealingly connected to the pipe head and the column. A plurality of layer brushes that are in contact with the surface of the circular plate are evenly fixed on the sliding pipe. A water channel communicating with the sliding pipe is provided in each layer brush. A plurality of water holes communicating with the water channel are provided through the bottom surface of the layer brush. A clamping block is fixed on the sliding pipe. A sliding block is horizontally slid along the wall surface on the side wall of the cabinet body near the clamping block, and the sliding block is movably clamped to limit the clamping block.
[0006] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: Vegetables are placed on the circular plates. The motor is started to work. The motor drives a plurality of layers of circular plates to rotate through the rotating shaft, and then cooperates with the drying system to work to achieve the effect of uniformly drying the vegetables. When it is necessary to clean the circular plates after the drying process is completed, by sliding the sliding block and adjusting the position of the sliding block so that the clamping block is clamped and restricted on the sliding block, and then by restricting the position of the clamping block, the brush on the surface of the layer brush abuts against the surface of the circular plate. The water pump is started to work, and then external water flow is extracted through the suction pipe and sequentially conveyed to a plurality of water channels through the pipe head and the sliding pipe, and finally sprayed on each layer of circular plates through the water holes. Then the motor is started to work, and through the self-rotation of the circular plates, the surface of the circular plates is washed and brushed in a circle, realizing efficient and thorough cleaning of the circular plates, saving manpower and avoiding the growth of bacteria.
[0007] In order to clean the top and bottom surfaces of all circular plates;
[0008] As a further improvement of the above technical solution: A sliding groove that is slidably matched with the sliding block is provided on the inner wall of the cabinet body.

When the clamping block is clamped on the bottommost sliding block, the top surfaces of all circular plates are abutted by the layer brush. When the clamping block is clamped on the topmost sliding block, the bottom surfaces of all circular plates are abutted by the layer brush. Cooperating with the self-rotation process of the circular plates and spraying water through the water holes, the top and bottom surfaces of all circular plates are automatically washed and cleaned.

Then, it is easy to absorb the heat energy brought by the hair dryer, the heating cavity, and the exhaust cavity from the liquid state and turn it into a gaseous state. The heat energy is absorbed during the vaporization process, thereby reducing the temperature inside the cabinet body. The water in the steam is liquefied again through the condensing pipe, achieving the effect of dehumidification and realizing low-temperature and efficient drying of vegetables.
[0016] To facilitate draining and collecting the water on the surface of vegetables;
[0017] As a further improvement of the above technical solution: The circular plate is densely provided with through holes. A bottom partition is vertically fixed between the bottom surface of the bottom plate and the inner bottom surface of the cabinet body. One side of the bottom partition is provided with a heating cavity, and a water box is installed on the other side in a pull-out manner.

[0038] When drying vegetables at low temperature, the clamping block 38 is clamped on the slider 39 of the middle layer, so that the top and bottom surfaces of all the circular plates 22 do not contact the layer brush 35, and vegetables are placed on the circular plates 22. The water on the surface of the vegetables is drained through the through holes 221 and collected in the water box 17 through the drain holes 131 for storage, and the water on the bottom plate 13 is blocked by the water blocking strip 132 to prevent it from flowing out through the gap with the cabinet door 11. The motor 2 is started to work. The motor 2 drives a plurality of layers of circular plates 22 to rotate through the rotating shaft 21, and then cooperates with the drying system 4 to work, that is, the internal air is extracted by the vacuum pump 44 to form a low-pressure environment inside, so that the boiling point of the water is reduced. Then, the water is easily absorbed from the liquid state and transformed into a gaseous state by absorbing the heat energy brought by the hair dryer 41, the heating chamber 42, and the exhaust chamber 43. During the vaporization process, the heat energy is absorbed, thereby reducing the temperature inside the cabinet 1. And the water in the steam is liquefied again through the condenser tube 45 to achieve the effect of dehumidification, and then the vegetables are dried evenly and efficiently at low temperature.
