[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air dryers, in particular to an air dryer for processing snails. Background Art
[0002] The air dryer for snail processing is a mechanical device specially used to remove moisture from the surface of snails. It uses wind power to physically remove moisture from the surface of snails. The sterilized snails are placed on a conveyor belt and prepared for air drying. The air flow generated by the air dryer is ejected through the nozzle to dry the moisture on the surface of the snails.
[0003] In the existing snail air dryer, if the snail cannot be turned over during the drying process, part of its surface will always face downward, and the moisture in these parts will be difficult to be dried by the wind, resulting in uneven drying. In addition, the snails that cannot be turned over will take longer to reach a completely dry state, which will reduce production efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an air dryer that can turn the snails over to improve the drying efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide an air dryer for processing snails, so as to solve the problem raised in the above background technology that in the existing snail air dryer, if the snail cannot be turned over during the drying process, part of its surface will always face downward, and the moisture in these parts will be difficult to be dried by the wind, resulting in uneven drying. In addition, the snails that cannot be turned over will take longer to reach a completely dry state, which will reduce production efficiency.

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0030] See also Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment is an air drying machine for processing snails, comprising:
[0031] The air-drying assembly includes an air-drying frame 11, a support frame 12, a fan 13, a bottom frame 14, a first conveyor belt 15, and a second conveyor belt 16. The support frame 12 is fixed to the upper surface of the air-drying frame 11, the fan 13 is fixed to the upper surface of the support frame 12, the bottom frame 14 is fixed to the lower surface of the air-drying frame 11, the first conveyor belt 15 is fixed to one side of the interior of the air-drying frame 11, and the second conveyor belt 16 is fixed to the other side of the interior of the air-drying frame 11;
[0032] The air-drying frame 11 serves as the basic structure of the entire air-drying assembly, and the support frame 12 provides a stable support platform for the fan 13. The fan 13 evaporates moisture on the surface of the snail by generating airflow, and is the core equipment in the air-drying process. The first conveyor belt 15 is responsible for transporting the snails to the cross table 24, and the second conveyor belt 16 receives the snails turned over from the cross table 24 and continues the air-drying process.
[0033] The flip assembly includes a rotating shaft 23, a cross platform 24, a mounting groove 25, a spring 26 and a telescopic plate 27. The rotating shaft 23 passes through the middle of the outer surface of the air-drying frame 11, and the cross platform 24 is fixedly passed through the middle of the outer surface of the rotating shaft 23. The mounting groove 25 is opened on all four sides of the outer surface of the cross platform 24. The spring 26 is fixed inside the mounting groove 25. The telescopic plate 27 is fixed to one end of the spring 26. The flip assembly also includes a motor 21, a support platform 22 and an inclined slot 28. The motor 21 is fixed to one end of the rotating shaft 23, the support platform 22 is fixed to the lower surface of the motor 21, the inclined slot 28 is opened on both sides of the outer surface of the telescopic plate 27, the rotating shaft 23 is fixed to the output end of the motor 21, and the cross platform 24 is located between the first conveyor belt 15 and the second conveyor belt 16;
[0034] The rotating shaft 23 is the central axis of rotation of the cross platform 24. The cross platform 24 is used to carry and flip the snail so that all parts can be evenly dried. The mounting groove 25 is used to install the spring 26 and the telescopic plate 27. The telescopic plate 27 compresses the spring when it contacts the conveyor belt. When it is misaligned, the spring recovers the deformation and drives it to move outward to ensure stable transmission of the snail. The inclined groove 28 is used to guide or limit the moving path of the telescopic plate 27 to ensure the smooth flipping process of the snail.
[0035] Working principle:
[0036] When the snail passes through the first conveyor belt 15, the first conveyor belt 15 transports the snail to the second conveyor belt 16, and the snail will first fall into the cross table 24. Under the drive of the motor 21, the rotating shaft 23 of the cross table 24 rotates, and the rotating shaft 23 synchronously drives the cross table 24 to rotate. During the rotating transportation of the cross table 24, the telescopic plate 27 is connected with the spring 26. When the telescopic plate 27 contacts the first conveyor belt 15, the spring 26 is compressed inside the mounting groove 25 and the telescopic plate 27 is pressed against the outer surface of the first conveyor belt 15. When the telescopic plate 27 is misaligned with the first conveyor belt 15, the spring 26 will restore its deformation and drive the telescopic plate 27 to move outward. The telescopic plate 27 and the second conveyor belt 16 repeat the above steps. The cross table 24 moves the snail to the second conveyor belt 16, and the snail can be turned over during the drying process.
[0037] This step ensures that each part is evenly air-dried, which not only optimizes the air-drying effect but also improves production efficiency.
[0038] See also Figures 1 to 4 As shown; this embodiment is based on the above embodiment 1 and also includes:
[0039] The cleaning assembly includes a mounting platform 31, a side connecting plate 32, an electric push rod 33, a movable groove 34, a connecting rod 35 and a brush 36. The mounting platform 31 is installed on one side of the air-drying frame 11, the side connecting plates 32 are fixed on both sides of the mounting platform 31, the electric push rod 33 is fixed to the lower surface of the side connecting plate 32, the movable groove 34 is opened on the upper surface of the mounting platform 31, the connecting rod 35 passes through the movable groove 34, the brush 36 is fixed to the lower end of the connecting rod 35, the brush 36 is located above the first conveyor belt 15, and the electric push rod 33 is fixed to one end of the upper surface of the air-drying frame 11;
[0040] The side connecting plate 32 provides a stable installation position for the electric push rod 33. The electric push rod 33 is controlled by an external controller to extend and retract, thereby moving the connecting rod 35 up and down, thereby driving the brush 36 to perform cleaning work. The brush 36 directly contacts the snail to absorb water stains.
[0041] Working principle:
[0042] When the snail is placed on the upper surface of the first conveyor belt 15, the staff uses an external controller to control the electric push rod 33 to extend and retract, and the electric push rod 33 shortens, which simultaneously drives the mounting platform 31 to move downward, and the mounting platform 31 simultaneously drives the connecting rod 35 to move downward, so that the brush 36 contacts the snail. When the snail enters the air dryer, it is first wiped by the brush 36;
[0043] This step can absorb obvious water stains and improve air-drying efficiency.
