Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of aquatic product processing; in particular to a hot air drying device for shrimp aquatic products. Background Art

[0002] Since seawater shrimps are not easy to survive and preserve after being caught, most of them are processed by rapid freezing preservation technology or drying and baking technology after being caught. Currently, the most common one is natural drying, which includes two methods: sunlight drying and air drying. Sunlight drying uses the heat energy generated by sunlight irradiation to evaporate the water contained in the product. At the same time, combined with the wind factor, the water vapor discharged from the aquatic product disappears into the air to achieve the drying effect of the aquatic product; air drying is to use the wind provided by nature to continuously blow over the surface of the aquatic product, taking away the water evaporated from the aquatic product to achieve the purpose of drying the aquatic product. This drying method is the most widely used drying method by people so far because of its almost zero cost. However, this method depends on natural climate conditions, has a low control level of drying conditions, cannot guarantee the expected effect of the product, and the product indicators change greatly after drying. Especially when the intensity of sunlight and air humidity cannot be controlled, the drying effect is extremely low. It not only cannot ensure the completion of drying on time, but also causes uneven drying effect or even deterioration of the product. In addition, the sanitary conditions of the product are also difficult to guarantee.

[0003] In addition, a hot air dryer is usually used for drying and baking seawater shrimps. Most hot air dryers use steam or electricity as heat sources, heat through a heat exchanger, the air is forced to circulate by a fan, and the hot air layer flows through the material to be dried to transfer heat and take away the moisture volatilized from the material, so as to realize the drying and baking of the material. This drying and baking method has a high cost, a limited drying area, a good drying effect near the drying area, and a poor drying effect and a high cost far from the drying area. Therefore, a new drying device is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0025] A smoke inlet chamber 10 is formed among the heating furnace 1, the heating drum 3, and a pair of supporting partitions 15;

[0026] On the tube wall of the heating drum 3 located between a pair of supporting partitions 15, water filtering holes 11 communicating with the smoke inlet chamber 10 and used for draining water and admitting smoke are evenly distributed;

[0027] At the bottom of the heating furnace 1, a smoke inlet groove 9 communicating with the smoke inlet chamber 10 is provided; a mounting seat for sealing the smoke inlet groove 9 is installed at the bottom of the heating furnace 1. A drain groove 14 located directly below the smoke inlet groove is provided inside the mounting seat, and a plug for sealing the drain groove 14 is provided on the outer wall of the mounting seat;

[0028] A heater 5 is provided near the mounting seat at the bottom of the heating furnace 1, and a smoke inlet hole 17 communicating with the drain groove 14 inside the mounting seat is provided on the heater 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, by providing the heating furnace 1 and the heating drum 3, an external drive mechanism is used to drive the heating drum to slowly rotate in the heating furnace.

At the same time, water filtering and smoke admission are carried out through the evenly distributed water filtering holes on the outer wall of the heating drum. Under the action of the suction fan, the shrimp in the heating drum is heated and dried, so that the shrimp in the heating drum is evenly heated, the drying effect is good, and the drying cost is low.

[0030] In this embodiment, after the caught sea shrimp, such as Antarctic krill, is caught, due to the limited storage in the freezer, only the method of drying can be used to store the sea shrimp. After the sea shrimp is cleaned, the sea shrimp is stacked in the heating drum 3 through the left sealing door 4. The heating drum 3 has a diameter of 2 meters and a length of 3 - 5 meters, and can process 5 - 10 tons of sea shrimp at one time. After the sea shrimp is placed, the left sealing door 4 is closed. A ventilation device is provided on the right sealing door 6 near the right end. The drive mechanism drives the heating drum 3 to slowly rotate in the heating furnace. The water in the fresh sea shrimp flows out along the water filtering holes 11 and the drain groove 14.
