[0002] Dry yeast is a refined yeast product after drying treatment. It retains the fermentation ability of fresh yeast, but due to the removal of most of the moisture, it has the advantages of a longer shelf life and being convenient for storage and transportation. After the active dry yeast is produced, it needs to be placed in a storage tank for subsequent packaging preparation. In order to prevent the active dry yeast from getting damp and caking during storage, a drying device needs to be set in the storage tank. During the use of the existing drying device, when the desiccant needs to be replaced, professional tools are often required to turn multiple bolts, and the storage tank needs to be disassembled to take out the drying box to replace the desiccant. The replacement process is relatively complex, and at the same time, it wastes the replacement time and reduces the working efficiency of desiccant replacement; secondly, during the use of the existing drying device, when the drying box is taken out to replace the desiccant, the storage tank is in communication with the outside world, so that the moisture in the outside air will enter the storage tank, thereby increasing the humidity of the air in the storage tank and affecting the dryness of the active dry yeast.

[0027] It should be pointed out that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which this application belongs.

[0028] In the present invention, unless otherwise stated, the orientations such as "up, down" are usually relative to the directions shown in the drawings, or relative to the vertical, perpendicular or gravitational directions; similarly, for the convenience of understanding and description, "left, right" are usually relative to the left and right shown in the drawings; "inside, outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contours of each component itself, but the above orientation terms are not used to limit the present invention.

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , an active dry yeast drying device, including a storage tank 1, a driving chamber 2 and two moving chambers 3 are provided in the storage tank 1, a drying chamber 4 is communicated with one side of each moving chamber 3, a driving rod 5 is rotatably provided at the upper end of the storage tank 1, the lower end of the driving rod 5 extends into the driving chamber 2 and is fixedly connected with a driving bevel gear 6, a bidirectional screw 7 is rotatably provided in each of the two moving chambers 3, two moving seats 8 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw 7, a driven bevel gear 9 is fixedly connected to the bidirectional screw 7 extending into the driving chamber 2, one side of the moving seat 8 extends into the drying chamber 4 and is fixedly connected with a drying box 10 movably connected to the drying chamber 4, and a plurality of through holes 11 are respectively provided at the lower ends of the drying box 10 and the drying chamber 4;

[0030] Two limiting chambers 12 are arranged inside the drying chamber 4, and a cover plate 13 is movably arranged in each limiting chamber 12.

[0031] In this embodiment, the produced active dry yeast is placed in the storage tank 1 for storage. A desiccant is provided in the drying box 10, and the inside of the storage tank 1 can be dried and dehumidified through the through holes 11. When the drying box 10 needs to be disassembled, rotate the driving rod 5. The driving rod 5 drives the driving bevel gear 6 to rotate. The driving bevel gear 6 drives the driven bevel gear 9 to rotate. The driven bevel gear 9 drives the bidirectional screw 7 to rotate, so that the moving seat 8 moves along the moving chamber 3. The moving seat 8 drives the drying box 10 to move. When the moving seat 8 moves out of the moving chamber 3 and is separated from the bidirectional screw 7, the moving seat 8 will drive the drying box 10 to move out of the drying chamber 4 and be disassembled, so that the desiccant in the drying box 10 can be replaced. After replacement, place the drying box 10 on one side of the drying chamber 4 and make the moving seat 8 contact with the bidirectional screw 7. Rotate the driving rod 5 in the opposite direction, so that the moving seat 8 is threadedly connected with the bidirectional screw 7 and drives the drying box 10 to be installed in the drying chamber 4.

[0032] More specifically, by rotating the driving rod 5, the two drying boxes 10 are automatically moved out of the storage tank 1, which is convenient for replacing the desiccant. When the drying box 10 moves out, the cover plate 13 will move in the limiting chamber 12, so as to block the through holes 11 in the drying chamber 4.

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , as an implementation manner of the movement of the cover plate 13: A plurality of springs 14 are fixedly connected between one end of each cover plate 13 and the limiting chamber 12. A push plate 15 is provided at the upper end of each cover plate 13. The push plate 15 is movably connected to the drying box 10. A push groove 16 matching the push plate 15 is provided at the upper end of each limiting chamber 12.

[0034] Specifically, when the drying box 10 moves outwards, the drying box 10 no longer pushes the push plate 15. Under the push of the spring 14, the cover plate 13 moves along the limiting chamber 12. The cover plate 13 drives the push plate 15 to move along the push groove 16. When the drying box 10 is moved out of the drying chamber 4, the cover plate 13 will block the through hole 11 in the drying chamber 4. When installing the drying box 10, as the drying box 10 moves, the drying box 10 pushes the push plate 15, and the push plate 15 drives the cover plate 13 to move, compressing the spring 14, thereby opening the through hole 11.

[0035] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , as an implementation manner for sealing the feed hopper 17: A feed hopper 17 is provided on one side of the storage tank 1. The upper end of the feed hopper 17 is hinged with a cover body 18. Two support seats 19 are symmetrically provided on the outer side of the feed hopper 17. An electric push rod 20 is hinged on each support seat 19. The driving end of the electric push rod 20 is hinged with the cover body 18. A sealing ring 21 is provided on the cover body 18, and a sealing groove 22 matching with the sealing ring 21 is provided on the feed hopper 17.

[0036] Specifically, start the two electric push rods 20. The electric push rods 20 push the cover body 18, and the cover body 18 rotates around the hinge connection with the feed hopper 17. The cover body 18 drives the sealing ring 21 to move out of the sealing groove 22, so that the cover body 18 is opened. Place the produced active dry yeast into the storage tank 1 from the feed hopper 17. Start the two electric push rods 20 to close the cover body 18. The cover body 18 will drive the sealing ring 21 to move into the sealing groove 22 to seal between the cover body 18 and the feed hopper 17.

[0037] In summary, when the overall equipment is in use:

[0038] When in the state where the feed hopper 17 needs to be closed and sealed, start the two electric push rods 20. The electric push rods 20 push the cover body 18, and the cover body 18 rotates around the hinge connection with the feed hopper 17. The cover body 18 drives the sealing ring 21 to move out of the sealing groove 22, so that the cover body 18 is opened. Place the produced active dry yeast into the storage tank 1 from the feed hopper 17. Start the two electric push rods 20 to close the cover body 18. The cover body 18 will drive the sealing ring 21 to move into the sealing groove 22 to seal between the cover body 18 and the feed hopper 17.

[0039] When in a state where the desiccant needs to be replaced, the produced active dry yeast is placed in the storage tank 1 for storage. The drying box 10 is provided with a desiccant, and the inside of the storage tank 1 can be dried and dehumidified through the through hole 11. When the drying box 10 needs to be disassembled, rotate the driving rod 5. The driving rod 5 drives the driving bevel gear 6 to rotate. The driving bevel gear 6 drives the driven bevel gear 9 to rotate. The driven bevel gear 9 drives the bidirectional screw 7 to rotate, so that the moving seat 8 moves along the moving chamber 3. The moving seat 8 drives the drying box 10 to move. When the moving seat 8 moves out of the moving chamber 3 and separates from the bidirectional screw 7, the moving seat 8 will drive the drying box 10 to move out of the drying chamber 4 and be disassembled, so that the desiccant in the drying box 10 can be replaced. After replacement, place the drying box 10 on one side of the drying chamber 4 and make the moving seat 8 contact with the bidirectional screw 7. Rotate the driving rod 5 in the opposite direction, so that the moving seat 8 is threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw 7 and drives the drying box 10 to be installed in the drying chamber 4.

[0040] When in a state where the through hole 11 is closed during the process of replacing the desiccant, when the drying box 10 moves outwards, the drying box 10 no longer pushes the push plate 15. Under the push of the spring 14, the cover plate 13 moves along the limiting chamber 12. The cover plate 13 drives the push plate 15 to move along the push groove 16. When the drying box 10 moves out of the drying chamber 4, the cover plate 13 will block the through hole 11 in the drying chamber 4. When installing the drying box 10, as the drying box 10 moves, the drying box 10 pushes the push plate 15. The push plate 15 drives the cover plate 13 to move, and the spring 14 is compressed, thereby opening the through hole 11.

[0041] In all the solutions mentioned above, for the connection between two components, welding, the cooperation of bolts and nuts, bolt or screw connection, or other well-known connection methods can be selected according to the actual situation, which will not be elaborated one by one here. For those mentioned above that involve fixed connection, welding is preferably considered. Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention.
