Specific embodiments

[0024] 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 creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-5, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a vegetable automatic dehydration device, including a dehydration tank 1 and a dehydration drawer 4. A plurality of dehydration drawers 4 are slidably connected inside the dehydration tank 1. A baffle 5 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the dehydration drawer 4. A temperature and humidity display screen 6 and a handle 7 are respectively installed on the surface of the baffle 5. Sliding grooves 10 are opened on both side surfaces of the dehydration drawer 4. A reset block 12 is slidably connected to the inner top end of the sliding groove 10. A spring structure 11 is arranged between the lower surface of the reset block 12 and the inner lower end of the sliding groove 10. The cross-section of the reset block 12 is a right triangle structure. A pressing plate 13 is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the dehydration drawer 4. By setting the pressing plate 13, the reset block 12 and the spring structure 11, after the vegetables are processed and laid flat on the dehydration drawer 4, the dehydration drawer 4 is directly pushed into the dehydration tank 1. The pressing plate 13 is squeezed downward by the extrusion force at the inner bottom end of the dehydration tank 1 to realize the extrusion and fixation of the vegetables. During the dehydration process, the spring structure 11 is in a squeezed state. After the dehydration is completed, the dehydration drawer 4 is pulled out from the dehydration tank 1. The reset block 12 is pushed upward by the reset elastic force of the spring structure 11, so as to push the pressing plate 13 upward, preventing the pressing plate 13 from adhering to the surface of the dehydration drawer 4, effectively avoiding the problem that the manual pressing method of the pressing plate 13 is more cumbersome in the operation process, not only consuming more time and labor, but also having low efficiency. For large-scale vegetable dehydration treatment, this traditional method obviously has certain limitations. By setting the temperature and humidity display screen 6, the temperature and humidity conditions inside the dehydration drawer 4 are displayed in real time through the temperature and humidity display screen 6, so as to judge whether the vegetables are dehydrated.

[0026] In the present utility model, preferably, a slope 8 is arranged on the upper surface of the dehydration drawer 4. The slope 8 facilitates the excess water on the surface of the vegetables to flow into the lower water chute 9 along the slope 8 for discharge.

[0027] In the present utility model, preferably, water chutes 9 are opened at both ends of the slope 8.

[0028] In the present utility model, preferably, the dehydration drawer 4 and the pressing plate 13 are rotatably connected to each other through a rotating shaft 15. By setting the rotating shaft 15, the dehydration drawer 4 and the pressing plate 13 are made into an integral structure through the rotating shaft 15, thus avoiding the trouble of assembling multiple structures with each other and further simplifying the operation steps when the vegetable automatic dehydration device is used.

[0029] In the present utility model, preferably, a plurality of mesh holes 14 are penetrated through the surface of the pressing plate 13.

[0030] In the present utility model, preferably, an operation indicator light 3 is installed at a corner of the upper surface of the dehydration tank 1.

[0031] In the present utility model, preferably, heat dissipation openings 2 are arranged on both side surfaces of the dehydration tank 1.

[0032] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model are as follows: When in use, lay the vegetables flat on the dehydration drawer 4. The slopes 8 and water channels 9 on the surface of the dehydration drawer 4 facilitate the discharge of excess water from the vegetables. Subsequently, push the dehydration drawer 4 into the dehydrating box 1. At this time, the extrusion force at the top inside the dehydrating box 1 will cause the pressing plate 13 to press down on the vegetables to fix the vegetables. During the dehydration process, the temperature and humidity display screen 6 can be used to monitor the temperature and humidity inside the dehydration drawer 4 in real time to determine whether the dehydration of the vegetables is completed. After the dehydration is completed, pull out the dehydration drawer 4 from the dehydrating box 1. The reset elastic force of the spring structure 11 will cause the reset block 12 to pop up upwards, and then push the pressing plate 13 upwards to prevent the pressing plate 13 from adhering to the surface of the dehydration drawer 4. At this time, the operation indicator light 3 on the upper surface of the dehydrating box 1 can be observed to understand the operation status of the device. During the entire dehydration process, the heat dissipation openings 2 ensure the normal heat dissipation of the device.

[0033] Although the embodiments of the present utility model 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 principle and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
