Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of dehydrated vegetable processing, in particular to a cooling device for dehydrated vegetable processing. Background Art

[0002] Dehydrated vegetables are foods made by washing, drying and other processing steps of fresh vegetables to remove most of the water. They not only retain the original nutrients, color and flavor of vegetables, but also have significant advantages such as small size, light weight, easy storage and transportation. In the production process, advanced technology and equipment are often used to minimize the loss of nutrients. Dehydrated vegetables are very convenient to eat. They only need to be soaked in water to restore their original taste and shape to a certain extent. Therefore, they are widely used in many fields such as convenience food, military rations, and outdoor adventure food. At the same time, they can also be used as family reserve ingredients to provide people with vegetable supplements during the vegetable off-season or special circumstances. For example, common dehydrated carrots, dehydrated onions, dehydrated spinach, etc. are all typical representatives of dehydrated vegetables.

[0003] In the process of making dehydrated vegetables, the washed and chopped vegetables need to be steamed and drained. However, the temperature of the steamed vegetables is high and they cannot be drained immediately. The traditional processing method is to let the steamed vegetables cool naturally before dehydrating. This method is not only inefficient but also difficult to ensure the consistency of the quality of the steamed vegetables. Therefore, a cooling device is used to achieve the purpose of rapid cooling.

[0004] Chinese patent publication number CN209376657U discloses a novel cooling device for dehydrated vegetable processing. The device consists of an upper cooling trough connected to a lower water supply chamber, with the left and right sides connected by a water supply pipe and a drain pipe, respectively. The upper cooling trough includes an upper chute, a water level gauge, a temperature detector, a signal transmitter, and a controller. The inner bottom has parallel support rods and a lower chute for placing a vegetable basket. The basket opening has a lifting mounting. The water supply pipe has a first electromagnetic control valve and a water pump, and the drain pipe has a second electromagnetic control valve and a condenser. This utility model can detect and control the water level and temperature in the trough, achieving good cooling efficiency.

[0005] During the period when the above-mentioned device is put into use, the basket carrying the vegetables needs to be manually taken out from the inside of the device when taking it out and placing it. The basket of the device is usually large in size. In addition, when the vegetables are inside the sink, a large amount of water adheres to their surface, which causes the weight of the basket containing the vegetables to increase significantly. Manual taking and placing is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also easily affects the efficiency of production and processing. It can be seen that the existing equipment has certain defects and deficiencies during use, and therefore needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0032] Principle and advantages of use: By setting up the storage mechanism 7, the device can be used to hang the vegetable hanging basket 75 containing vegetables on the hook 74 during use. At this time, the vegetable hanging basket 75 can be hung on the bottom of the hanging frame 73. At this time, by starting the first motor 6, the first motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating shaft 5 can assist in driving the base frame 72 to rotate. During the rotation of the base frame 72, the hanging frame 73 adaptively rotates on the inner side of the fixed plate 71, thereby prompting the vegetable hanging basket 75 to be able to stably reside in the water tank 4 for rotation and circulation, which can prompt the device to perform cyclic reciprocating cooling on multiple groups of vegetable hanging baskets 75, thereby improving the overall cooling effect of the device. It cooperates with the taking and placing mechanism 9 to quickly and automatically take out the vegetable hanging basket 75 during the cyclic cooling process of each vegetable hanging basket 75, and then replace the vegetable hanging basket 75 in the interior of the device, thereby realizing continuous and automatic cooling processing, thereby improving the overall processing efficiency of the device.

[0033] By setting up the pick-and-place mechanism 9, the device can be operated by starting the third motor 943 during use. The third motor 943 can drive the screw rod 942 to drive the slide 951 to slide on the inner side of the movable rail 93, and the two hanging baskets are synchronously driven to move back and forth by the screw rod 942. At this time, the telescopic cylinder 952 on one slide 951 moves to the middle, and by starting the telescopic cylinder 952 to extend and retract, the hanging hook 953 can be driven to move up and down, prompting the hanging hook 953 to lift the vegetable hanging basket 75 during the rotation. During this period, the vegetable hanging basket 75 that needs to be cooled is placed on the hook 74, and by starting the third motor 943 to run, the cooled vegetable hanging basket 75 can be lifted. The basket 75 moves to the outside, and the center of the uncooled vegetable hanging basket 75 moves to the top middle of the water tank 4. At this time, the uncooled vegetable hanging basket 75 can be placed on the hook 74. At the same time, the cooled vegetable hanging basket 75 moves to the outside during this process. Starting the second motor 92 can drive the top shaft 91 to drive the movable rail 93 to rotate, causing the movable rail 93 to rotate and tilt. At this time, the cooled vegetable hanging basket 75 moves downward, and the vegetable hanging basket 75 can be taken out. After taking and placing, the second motor 92 and the third motor 943 can be started to reset. It can be seen that this device can realize automatic loading and unloading cooling processing without manual taking and placing, which can improve the overall production and processing efficiency of this device.
