Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heating equipment, in particular to a humidity-preserving heating oven for agricultural product processing. Background Technique

[0002] In the field of agricultural product processing, the heating treatment of materials needs to take into account efficiency, uniformity and quality preservation, and accurate control of temperature and humidity is crucial. Traditional steam heating relies on the release of latent heat to achieve heat conduction, with low heating efficiency and insufficient penetration depth. The surface of the material is easily over-wetted while the internal temperature rises laggingly, resulting in an extended processing cycle and a large equipment volume, making it difficult to meet the requirements of continuous production. Although single microwave heating can achieve volumetric heating, it lacks means for humidity control, with a high moisture loss rate of the material, and is prone to skin cracking or internal charring. Infrared heating only acts on the surface layer of the material, with poor heating uniformity for thick-layer materials and unable to meet the requirements of deep processing.

[0003] The material heating system disclosed in CN222840477U improves the heating efficiency through microwave volumetric heating, infrared radiation enhancement and hot water atomization convection. However, in practical applications, the following optimization space is still found: the functions of the microwave and infrared heating areas overlap, there is a lack of gradient temperature field design, the sensor points are concentrated in a single temperature zone, it is difficult to achieve multi-parameter linkage control, and the control accuracy is greatly affected. In addition, the microwave heating component is close to the material inlet and outlet, posing a risk of microwave leakage. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] Aiming at the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the utility model provides a humidity-preserving heating oven for agricultural product processing to solve the technical problems of low heating efficiency, insufficient temperature and humidity control accuracy, high risk of microwave leakage and serious energy waste of traditional equipment.

The material conveying assembly penetrates through the oven body. The oven body is sequentially divided into a steam preheating and humidifying section, a microwave rapid heating section, and an infrared temperature control section along the material transmission direction. A steam spray pipe is provided in the steam preheating and humidifying section, and the steam spray pipe is connected to an external steam generator through a pipeline. A plurality of microwave generating devices are installed on the box body wall of the microwave rapid heating section, and microwave shielding transition bins for only allowing the material conveying assembly to pass through are respectively arranged at both ends of the section where the microwave generating devices are located.

[0006] Further, the air inlet end of the circulation fan of the humid-heat circulation assembly is located above the material conveying assembly, and the steam spray pipe and the air outlet end of the circulation fan are located below the material conveying assembly.

[0008] Further, a spray pipe for flushing the carrier of the material conveying assembly is provided in the steam preheating and humidifying section. The spray pipe is located above the material conveying assembly and is connected to an external high-pressure water source through a pipeline.

[0009] Further, the microwave generating devices in the microwave rapid heating section are distributed on the top wall of the box body above the material conveying assembly and on the side walls of the box body on both sides below the material conveying assembly. The microwave generating devices on the two side walls of the box body are installed in an inclined manner, and the inclination angle makes the radiation direction of the microwave generating devices face upward.

[0010] Further, an exhaust heat fan is further included. The exhaust heat fan is installed between the microwave rapid heating section and the infrared temperature control section. The air inlet end of the exhaust heat fan is communicated with the inner cavity of the box body, and the air outlet end is communicated with the outside.

[0011] Furthermore, the infrared heating component includes a moving rack, multiple infrared heating tubes respectively arranged above and below the material conveying component, and a driving unit. Both ends of the infrared heating tubes are fixedly connected to the moving rack, and the driving unit is connected to the moving rack and drives the moving rack to reciprocate along the material conveying direction.

[0012] Furthermore, an infrared thermometer and a humidity sensor are distributed and installed inside the oven body. The infrared thermometer and the humidity sensor are electrically connected to the main control system, and the main control system dynamically adjusts the output power of the steam generator, the radiation intensity of the microwave generating device, and the working temperature of the infrared heating component according to the data of the infrared thermometer and the humidity sensor.

[0027] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, a humidity-preserving heating oven for agricultural product processing provided in this embodiment includes an oven body 100 and a material conveying component.

Both ends of the infrared heating tubes 902 are fixedly connected to the moving frame 901. The driving unit 903 is connected to the moving frame 901 and drives the moving frame 901 to reciprocate along the material conveying direction, so as to optimize the heating uniformity of the material surface.

[0038] To achieve intelligent control and ensure the consistency of product quality, in this embodiment, infrared thermometers and humidity sensors are distributed and installed in the oven body 100. The infrared thermometers and humidity sensors are electrically connected to the main control system. The main control system dynamically adjusts the output power of the steam generator, the radiation intensity of the microwave generating device 701, and the working temperature of the infrared heating assembly 900 according to the data of the infrared thermometers and humidity sensors.
