[0002] After the production of shrimp powder, it needs to be dried before entering subsequent processes such as packaging. Existing equipment for drying shrimp powder generally needs to rely on stirring to increase the drying speed. However, when the existing drying equipment is in use, the distribution quantity and thickness of shrimp powder at various positions in the drying equipment are uneven, resulting in slower drying at thick positions. Even with continuous stirring, it is difficult to achieve rapid drying of the thickly piled shrimp powder, leading to an extended overall drying time of the shrimp powder and greatly affecting the overall drying efficiency of the shrimp powder. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a rapid stirring device for shrimp powder drying, which can solve the technical problem that the overall drying efficiency is affected due to uneven distribution of quantity and thickness during the drying of existing shrimp powder, enabling the shrimp powder entering the drying equipment to be evenly distributed at various positions, ensuring the uniformity and consistency of the overall drying, and greatly improving the overall drying efficiency of the shrimp powder.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A rapid stirring device for shrimp powder drying, including a drying cylinder. A stirring shaft arranged horizontally is rotatably connected inside the drying cylinder. A plurality of stirring rods are arranged on the stirring shaft. A plurality of heating tubes are arranged on the inner wall of the drying cylinder. An inlet and an outlet are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the drying cylinder. A hopper is slidably connected horizontally at the inlet. A filter screen is arranged at the bottom of the hopper. A vibration assembly for cooperating with the filter screen is arranged at the bottom of the hopper. A blocking plate for controlling its opening and closing is arranged at the outlet.

[0006] Further, sliding grooves are symmetrically arranged on both side walls of the inlet. Sliders are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the hopper. The sliders are slidably connected in the sliding grooves.

[0008] Further, the vibration assembly includes a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the bottom of the hopper. A plurality of springs are arranged on the rotating shaft. A knocking ball is arranged at the end of the spring. The knocking ball is in contact with the bottom of the filter screen.

[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of operating rods are rotatably connected to the bottom of the drying cylinder, and the operating rods penetrate through the plug plate and are threadedly connected thereto.

[0010] Furthermore, a heating cavity is provided on the inner wall of the drying cylinder, and the heating tube is arranged in the heating cavity.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0020] The following further elaborates the present utility model in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and not to limit the scope of the present utility model. In addition, it should be understood that after reading the content taught by the present utility model, those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to the present utility model, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by this application.

[0021] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the utility model relates to a rapid stirring device for shrimp powder drying. The main structure includes a drying cylinder 1, which is arranged horizontally, that is, the axis of the drying cylinder 1 is in the horizontal direction, so that the drying cylinder 1 has a horizontal structure, greatly increasing the drying area. A stirring shaft 2 arranged horizontally is rotatably connected in the drying cylinder 1 through bearings, and the stirring shaft 2 is driven to rotate by a motor. A plurality of stirring rods 3 are welded or bolted to the stirring shaft 2. With such a structure, when the stirring shaft 2 rotates, it can drive the stirring rods 3 at various positions in the axial direction to rotate, so that the shrimp powder at various positions in the axial direction of the drying cylinder 1 is continuously stirred, and then the shrimp powder uniformly contacts the inner wall of the drying cylinder 1, greatly improving the drying effect and speed. A plurality of heating tubes 4 are arranged on the inner wall of the drying cylinder 1. The heating tubes 4 are generally of an electric heating structure to realize the heating treatment of the inner wall of the drying cylinder 1 and accelerate the evaporation speed of the moisture in the shrimp powder. An inlet 5 and an outlet 6 are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the drying cylinder 1, and both penetrate the side wall of the drying cylinder 1. A hopper 7 is slidably connected horizontally at the inlet 5. Preferably, to avoid heat dissipation, a detachable cover plate can be arranged at the position outside the hopper 7 at the inlet 5 to close most of the position at the inlet 5 after feeding, ensuring the temperature inside the drying cylinder 1 and further improving the drying speed. The hopper 7 slides horizontally under the drive of any existing drive structure. A filter screen 8 is welded or bolted to the bottom of the hopper 7. With such a structure, when feeding, the shrimp powder is poured into the hopper 7. Due to the existence of the bottom filter screen 8, the shrimp powder will not directly fall into the drying cylinder 1 at one time, but gradually falls downward through the filter holes on the filter screen 8. During this process, the hopper 7 slides horizontally at the inlet 5, so that the shrimp powder uniformly falls at various positions in the axial direction of the drying cylinder 1, and then the quantity and thickness of the shrimp powder distributed at various positions are more uniform, improving the uniformity and consistency of the drying treatment of the shrimp powder at various positions during drying and greatly improving the drying efficiency. A vibration assembly for cooperating with the filter screen 8 is arranged at the bottom of the hopper 7. Since the shrimp powder contains moisture, it is easy to agglomerate and block the filter screen 8. The vibration assembly continuously vibrates the filter screen 8, so that the feeding of the shrimp powder is more efficient and smooth. A blocking plate 9 for controlling its opening and closing is arranged at the outlet 6. During drying, the blocking plate 9 blocks the outlet 6 to prevent the shrimp powder from falling. After drying is completed, the blocking plate 9 is opened to discharge the shrimp powder from the outlet 6, greatly improving the fluency and efficiency of the drying treatment of the shrimp powder.

[0022] Preferably, referring to Figure 3, symmetrically arranged sliding grooves 10 are provided on both side walls of the feed inlet 5. The sliding grooves 10 are recessed inward from the inner wall of the feed inlet 5. Symmetrically welded or bolt-fixed on both sides of the hopper 7 are sliding blocks 11. The sliding blocks 11 are slidably connected in the sliding grooves 10. When the hopper 7 slides at the feed inlet 5, the sliding blocks 11 slide in the sliding grooves 10, thereby making the sliding of the hopper 7 more stable and smooth, avoiding the situation of the hopper 7 getting stuck, and improving the smoothness of shrimp powder feeding.

[0023] Preferably, a guide rod 12 and a rotating screw rod 13 are respectively provided in the sliding grooves 10 on both sides. The guide rod 12 is welded or bolt-fixed in the sliding groove 10 on one side. The screw rod 13 is rotatably connected in the sliding groove 10 on the other side through a bearing and is driven to rotate by a motor. The screw rod 13 penetrates through the sliding block 11 and is threadedly connected thereto. The guide rod 12 penetrates through the sliding block 11 on the other side and is slidably connected thereto. Such a structure uses the motor to drive the screw rod 13 to rotate, and realizes the sliding drive of the hopper 7 under the action of threaded connection, making the sliding control of the feed port more accurate and further ensuring the uniformity of shrimp powder distribution.

[0024] Preferably, referring to Figure 4 , the vibration assembly includes a rotating shaft 14 rotatably connected to the bottom of the hopper 7 through a bearing. The rotating shaft 14 is driven to rotate by a motor. Welded or bolt-fixed on the rotating shaft 14 are a plurality of springs 15. The end of the spring 15 is provided with a knocking ball 16. The knocking ball 16 is in contact with the bottom of the filter screen 8. When the rotating shaft 14 rotates, the knocking ball 16 periodically contacts and collides with the bottom of the filter screen 8, realizing the knocking vibration of the filter screen 8, thereby avoiding the accumulation and blockage of shrimp powder at the filter screen 8, vibrating the shrimp powder more effectively, and ensuring the smoothness of shrimp powder feeding.

[0025] Preferably, a plurality of operating rods 17 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the drying cylinder 1 through bearings. The operating rods 17 penetrate through the plug plate 9 and are threadedly connected thereto. Such a structure can drive the plug plate 9 to move up and down under the action of threaded connection when the operating rods 17 are rotated, thereby realizing the control of the plug plate 9 entering and exiting the discharge port 6, and making the opening and closing control of the discharge port 6 simpler and more convenient.

[0026] Preferably, a heating cavity 18 is provided on the inner wall of the drying cylinder 1. The heating cavity 18 is arranged in the form of a sandwich on the inner wall of the drying cylinder 1. The heating tube 4 is arranged in the heating cavity 18. Such a structure effectively hides the heating tube 4, avoids the erosion of moisture, etc., extends the service life of the heating tube 4, and avoids the possible pollution to the shrimp powder.

[0027] Working principle: In the utility model, a feed inlet 5 is arranged at the top of the drying cylinder 1. A hopper 7 is slidably arranged at the feed inlet 5. A filter screen 8 is arranged at the bottom of the hopper 7. A vibration assembly for cooperating with the filter screen 8 is arranged at the bottom of the hopper 7. After the shrimp powder is poured into the interior of the hopper 7 with such a structure, due to the existence of the bottom filter screen 8, the shrimp powder will not directly enter the drying cylinder 1 all at once, but gradually falls into the drying cylinder 1 after passing through the filter holes on the filter screen 8. During this process, the hopper 7 slides horizontally at the feed inlet 5, so that the falling shrimp powder is evenly distributed at various positions of the drying cylinder 1. Cooperating with the vibration treatment of the vibration assembly on the filter screen 8, the feeding of the shrimp powder is made more smooth and uniform, and further, the drying treatment of the shrimp powder at various positions is made more uniform and consistent, thereby improving the uniformity of shrimp powder drying and the overall drying efficiency; A stirring shaft 2 arranged horizontally is rotatably connected in the drying cylinder 1. A plurality of stirring rods 3 are arranged on the stirring shaft 2. With such a structure, the stirring shaft 2 is used to drive the stirring rods 3 at various positions to rotate, so that the shrimp powder at various positions in the axial direction can be continuously stirred during the drying process, so as to uniformly contact the inner wall of the drying cylinder 1 heated by the heating pipe 4, further improving the drying efficiency. After drying is completed, the plug plate 9 is opened, so that the shrimp powder is discharged from the discharge port 6, making the whole drying process more efficient and smooth.
