Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drying equipment, in particular to seaweed drying equipment. Background Art

[0002] "Seaweed" is a general term for marine algae such as kelp, laver, undaria, and agar-agar. It is algae that grows in the sea and is a cryptogamous plant in the plant kingdom. Algae include several different types of organisms that generate energy through photosynthesis. There are two aspects in the drying process of seaweed: one is that water molecules in the food migrate from the inside to the surface in contact with dry hot air. When the water molecules reach the surface, they immediately transfer and diffuse into the air according to the vapor pressure difference between the surface and the air - moisture transfer; the other is that the heat in the hot air is transferred from the air to the surface of the food, and then from the surface to the inside of the food - heat transfer.

[0003] Seaweed needs to be cleaned and dehydrated before drying. Seaweed easily forms lumps during the dehydration and squeezing process. If it is not turned over and broken up, these lumps will affect the internal drying effect. The degree of drying of seaweed in different positions will vary during the drying process. If it is not turned over for a long time, some seaweed may be over-dried while other parts may not be dried enough. This situation will affect the drying effect of the seaweed and the quality of the finished product. Timely turning during the drying process is crucial to ensure the overall drying effect of the seaweed. Utility Model Content
