Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pepper processing, in particular to a steam sterilizing device for pepper processing. Background Art

[0002] When processing chili products, they need to be sterilized to prevent the growth of bacteria, which will limit the storage time of the chili. Chili sterilization is mostly carried out by high-temperature steam sterilization.

[0003] The Chinese utility model with authorization announcement number CN220875763U discloses a pepper steam sterilization device. When in use, the device can drive the pepper holding box to reciprocate along the surface of the mounting sleeve inside the box body through the cooperation of the driving motor, eccentric wheel and baffle with the sliding rod, slider and pepper holding box, and cooperate with multiple claw rods to grab and flip the peppers to increase the contact area between the peppers and the steam. However, the device has certain defects in actual use. For example, the spacing between the teeth of the claw rod is fixed. When processing peppers of different sizes, if the peppers are too large, they may be clamped by the claw rod and cannot be flipped smoothly; if the peppers are too small, the claw rod may not be able to grab them, resulting in incomplete flipping and uneven sterilization. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a steam sterilization device for pepper processing to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art and to propose a steam sterilizing device for pepper processing.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a threaded rod rotatably connected between the two sets of side plates, a sliding rod is threadedly connected to the threaded section of the threaded rod, an end of the sliding rod is rotatably connected to a connecting plate, and the end of the connecting plate is rotatably connected to the base.

[0008] Preferably, a limiting rod is fixedly connected between the two groups of side panels, and the sliding rod is slidably connected to the outer wall of the limiting rod.

[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the positioning block and the outer wall of the sliding groove are both T-shaped, and the outer wall of the positioning block is in contact with the inner wall of the sliding groove.

[0010] Preferably, two groups of positioning rods are slidably connected to the lower end surface of the base, and the ends of the positioning rods pass through the base and extend into the interior of the sliding groove.

[0011] Preferably, the outer wall of the positioning rod contacts the side wall of the positioning block, the end of the positioning rod is fixedly connected to the limiting block, and the radius of the limiting block is larger than the radius of the positioning rod.

[0013] Preferably, one group of the side panels' side walls is fixedly connected to a servo motor, and the end of the servo motor's output shaft is coaxially fixedly connected to the threaded rod.

[0014] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The utility model introduces a forward and reverse rotation design of the threaded rod, and uses the threaded rod to drive the sliding rod to slide along the limit rod, so that the holding box rotates continuously in the processing box. This rotation process enables the peppers in the holding box to be continuously turned over. Regardless of the size of the peppers, the peppers in the holding box can be continuously turned over as the base rotates, avoiding the phenomenon of peppers piling up in the device or being unable to be completely turned over. This allows peppers of different sizes to be evenly turned over in the equipment, ensuring that the surface of each pepper is fully in contact with the steam.

[0016] 2. The utility model provides a positioning block and a slide groove, and by driving the positioning block to move, it can improve the convenience of extracting and placing the peppers in the holding box. The restoring effect of the spring ensures the stable connection between the positioning block and the slide groove, and ensures that the position of the pepper holding box in the box does not shift during use, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the equipment.

[0017] This device, through the coordination of threaded rods and sliding rods, allows peppers to be fully rotated within the processing chamber, ensuring that every pepper is exposed to steam, significantly improving sterilization effectiveness. Compared to the fixed claw design of existing technologies, this device is more adaptable and can handle peppers of different sizes, avoiding problems such as uneven rotation and incomplete sterilization. Furthermore, the spring and chute design effectively ensures the stability of the device, reducing instability caused by vibration and mechanical wear, and improving the long-term reliability and stability of the device.

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-5A steam sterilization device for pepper processing includes a processing box 1, one side of the processing box 1 is open, and a sealed door panel 2 is installed here. A base 5 is rotatably connected to the processing box 1. Two sets of slide grooves 6 are provided on the upper end of the base 5. Positioning blocks 7 are slidably connected in the two sets of slide grooves 6. The positioning blocks 7 are connected to the holding box 3 by screws. The outer wall of the holding box 3 has multiple sets of through holes. An adjusting plate 13 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the processing box 1. The other end of the adjusting plate 13 is rotatably connected to the base 5. Two sets of side panels 8 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the processing box 1. A rotating mechanism for driving the base 5 to rotate is installed between the two sets of side panels 8. Mechanism, steam generators 4 are installed on the inner walls of both sides of the processing box 1, and the rotating mechanism includes a threaded rod 9 rotatably connected between the two sets of side plates 8, and a sliding rod 11 is threadedly connected to the threaded section of the threaded rod 9. The end of the sliding rod 11 is rotatably connected to a connecting plate 12, and the end of the connecting plate 12 is rotatably connected to the base 5; with the help of the rotation of the threaded rod 9, the connecting plate 12 is driven to slide to one side, and the base 5 is driven to rotate around the hinge point with the adjustment plate 13 when sliding. When rotating, the peppers in the box 3 are continuously turned over, ensuring the uniform turning of peppers of different sizes and maximizing the contact area with the steam, which greatly improves the sterilization effect.

[0026] The limiting rod 10 is fixedly connected between the two groups of side panels 8, and the sliding rod 11 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the limiting rod 10. The outer wall of the positioning block 7 and the outer wall of the slide 6 are both T-shaped. The outer wall of the positioning block 7 fits the inner wall of the slide 6. The lower end surface of the base 5 is slidably connected with two groups of positioning rods 15. The end of the positioning rod 15 passes through the base 5 and extends to the inside of the slide 6. The outer wall of the positioning rod 15 contacts the side wall of the positioning block 7. The end of the positioning rod 15 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 16, and the radius of the limiting block 16 is larger than the radius of the positioning rod 15; the setting of the positioning block 7 movable in the slide 6 can improve the convenience of taking out the peppers in the holding box 3, and the peppers in the holding box 3 can be quickly collected.

[0027] A spring 14 is sleeved on the outer wall of the positioning rod 15, one end of the spring 14 is fixedly connected to the end face of the limit block 16, and the other end of the spring 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the base 5. A servo motor is fixedly connected to the side wall of one group of side panels 8, and the end of the servo motor output shaft is coaxially fixedly connected to the threaded rod 9; the provided spring 14 can ensure the stability of the slide rod 11 when it is inserted into the slide groove 6, and ensure the effect of limiting the two groups of positioning blocks 7.

[0028] In the present invention, when the device is used specifically: open the sealed door panel 2 in the processing box 1, pull the positioning rod 15 downward, then pull the positioning block 7 out of the slide 6, evenly put the peppers to be processed into the holding box 3, and then insert the positioning block 7 into the slide 6. One side of the positioning rod 15 is set with an inclined surface. When the holding box 3 contacts the positioning rod 15, it drives the positioning rod 15 to slide downward and stretches the spring 14 at the same time until the positioning block 7 slides to the bottom of the slide 6. At this time, the positioning block 7 does not contact the positioning rod 15. The spring 14 drives the positioning rod 15 to recover quickly and abuts against the outer wall of the positioning block 7, thereby ensuring the stability of the holding box 3 after installation.

[0029] After the steam generators 4 on both sides of the processing box 1 are started, the steam is evenly distributed in the processing box 1, fully contacts the surface of the peppers, and is efficiently sterilized. Then the servo motor is started to drive the threaded rod 9 to rotate, so that the slide rod 11 slides along the limit rod 10, and synchronously drives the connecting plate 12 to move along the sliding direction. When the connecting plate 12 slides to one side, it drives the base 5 connected to it to rotate around the hinge point with the adjustment plate 13. The rotation of the base 5 drives the peppers inside the holding box 3 to flip over, so that the peppers are fully turned over, ensuring that the steam can evenly contact each pepper. By rotating the threaded rod 9 forward and backward, the contact area between the surface of the pepper and the steam can be maximized, thereby improving the sterilization effect.

[0030] The provision of the spring 14 ensures that the slide bar 11 is stably inserted into the slide groove 6, avoiding instability caused by mechanical vibration or impact, and further ensuring the stability and flipping effect of the device.

[0031] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
