In the sterilization room 4, a rotating rod 7, a steam branch pipe 8 and a water receiving tray 9 are provided, and the main steam pipe 3 penetrates through the sterilization chamber 1 and is connected to the steam branch pipe 8. The steam branch pipe 8 is in the shape of a U and is located above the water receiving tray 9. A number of exhaust holes 10 are provided at the upper bottom and lower top of the steam branch pipe 8 for discharging steam to heat and sterilize the shiitake mushrooms. An installation frame 11 is provided on the rotating rod 7, and the installation frame 11 is located at the inner end of the steam branch pipe 8. A tray 12 is placed on the installation frame 11 for supporting the shiitake mushrooms. A motor 17 is provided inside the sterilization chamber 1, and the output end of the motor 17 is connected to one end of the rotating rod 7 through a coupling. Since the steam branch pipe 8 is in the shape of a U and the steam branch pipe 8 is located outside the installation frame 11, when the sterilization function is started, steam is conveyed from the main steam pipe 3 to the steam branch pipe 8. When the steam is discharged from the exhaust holes 10 at the upper bottom and lower top of the steam branch pipe 8, during the process that the motor 17 drives the rotating rod 7 to rotate the tray 12 on the installation frame 11, the shiitake mushrooms placed at various positions of the tray 12 can be evenly heated and sterilized, ensuring the sterilization effect. The number of the water receiving trays 9 is several, and several water receiving trays 9 are arranged at equal intervals from top to bottom in the sterilization room 4, and the water receiving trays 9 are in a horizontal state. Drainage ports 6 are provided on the side walls of the sterilization room 4 on one side of each water receiving tray 9, and each drainage port 6 is connected to the drainage chamber 5. By setting up the water receiving trays 9, the accumulated water can be承接, and the accumulated water after承接 can flow into the drainage chamber 5 through the drainage port 6 for discharge. The rotating rod 7 sequentially penetrates through each water receiving tray 9, is vertically arranged at the middle position of the sterilization room 4, and is rotationally connected to the sterilization room 4. The number of the installation frames 11 and the steam branch pipes 8 is the same as the number of the water receiving trays 9, and they are respectively located on the rotating rod 7 above each water receiving tray 9 and on the side wall of the sterilization room 4. When the motor 17 is started to drive the rotating rod 7 to rotate, the rotating rod 7 can带动 the installation frame 11 to rotate synchronously. A first moving groove 13 is provided inside the front opening of the installation frame 11. The first moving groove 13 is connected to a second moving groove 14 vertically opened outside the front end of the installation frame 11. A spring 15 and a stop block 16 for preventing the tray 12 from detaching from the installation frame 11 are provided in the first moving groove 13. Among them, the spring 15 is located at the bottom of the stop block 16, and the stop block 16 is in the shape of an L. The horizontal end of the stop block 16 penetrates through the second moving groove 14 and is located outside. By pressing the stop block 16 downward to compress the spring 15, it is convenient to install the tray 12 on the installation frame 11 or拆卸 it from the installation frame 11. After the installation operation of the tray 12 on the installation frame 11 is completed, the force application state on the stop block 16 is released. The stop block 16 moves upward and returns to its original position in front of the tray 12 under the action of the spring 15, which can阻挡 the tray 12 and prevent the tray 12 from accidentally detaching from the installation frame 11 during rotation.The bottom end of the tray 12 is grid-shaped.

[0032] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: Since the shape of the steam branch pipe 8 is U-shaped and the steam branch pipe 8 is located at the outer end of the mounting frame 11, when the sterilization function is started, steam is delivered from the main steam pipe 3 to the steam branch pipe 8. When the steam is discharged from the exhaust holes 10 at the bottom of the upper part and the top of the lower part of the steam branch pipe 8, during the process that the motor 17 drives the rotating rod 7 to drive the tray 12 on the mounting frame 11 to rotate, it can make the shiitake placed at each position of the tray 12 be evenly heated and sterilized, ensuring the sterilization effect. By providing the water receiving tray 9, the generated accumulated water can be承接, and the承接 accumulated water can flow into the drainage chamber 5 through the drain port 6 for discharge, and the discharged accumulated water can enter the water collection box 18 for centralized collection so that after the sterilization operation is completed, the water collection box 18 can be externally removed for unified treatment of the accumulated water. When the retaining block 16 is pressed down to compress the spring 15, it is convenient to mount the tray 12 on the mounting frame 11 or disassemble it from the mounting frame 11. After the installation operation of the tray 12 on the mounting frame 11 is completed, the force application state on the retaining block 16 is released. Under the action of the spring 15, the retaining block 16 moves upward and returns to its position in front of the tray 12, which can block the tray 12 to prevent the tray 12 from accidentally detaching from the mounting frame 11 during rotation. The bottom end of the tray 12 is grid-shaped, which not only helps with the uniform distribution and flow of steam but also reduces the accumulation of condensed water.,
