[0022] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides a technical solution: a sterilization device for convenient food production, comprising a sterilization box 1, wherein connecting shafts 11 are fixedly installed on both sides of the sterilization box 1, a chuck 12 is fixedly installed between the two sets of connecting shafts 11, a conveyor belt 13 is installed in the middle of the chuck 12, and a comprehensive sterilization mechanism is installed on the conveyor belt 13;

[0023] The comprehensive sterilization mechanism includes multiple groups of equally distributed fixed seats 2 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the conveyor belt 13, rotating rods 21 rotatably installed at the bottom of each group of fixed seats 2, gears 22 fixedly installed in the middle of the outer wall of each group of rotating rods 21, a mounting frame 24 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sterilization box 1, and a gear ring 25 fixedly installed at the other end of the mounting frame 24, the gear ring 25 is engaged with the multiple groups of gears 22, and multiple groups of equally distributed ultraviolet lamps 31 are fixedly installed on the bottom side of the sterilization box 1. The multiple groups of ultraviolet lamps 31 correspond to the bagged food and can sterilize the bagged food.

[0024] In this technical solution, by driving the conveyor belt 13, multiple groups of bagged foods can be automatically conveyed to the sterilization box 1. At the same time, when the multiple groups of bagged foods are conveyed to the inside of the sterilization box 1 along the conveyor belt 13, they will not only follow the chuck 12 and be transmitted in a ring shape, so that the multiple groups of bagged foods are irradiated by each group of ultraviolet lamps 31 in turn, but also the gear 22 on each group of rotating rods 21 will engage with the gear ring 25 on the inner side of the mounting frame 24, so that the multiple groups of bagged foods are irradiated by each group of ultraviolet lamps 31 in turn, and the gears 22 will continuously rotate during the process of being irradiated by each group of ultraviolet lamps 31, ensuring that each group of bagged foods can be fully sterilized by the ultraviolet lamps 31.

[0025] In some technical solutions, multiple groups of equally spaced limiting rings 3 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the side wall of the conveyor belt 13. The multiple groups of limiting rings 3 correspond to each group of fixed seats 2 respectively. The multiple groups of limiting rings 3 are rotatably connected to each group of rotating rods 21 respectively, and the rotating rods 21 can be limited.

[0026] In this technical solution, after the conveyor belt 13 transports the bagged food at the bottom of the rotating rod 21 to the inside of the sterilization box 1, the limiting ring 3 connected to the bottom of the rotating rod 21 can limit the rotating rod 21, ensuring that the gear 22 on each group of rotating rods 21 is engaged with the gear ring 25 on the mounting frame 24, driving the bagged food at the bottom of each group of rotating rods 21 to rotate, further improving the sterilization efficiency.

[0027] In some technical solutions, limiting rollers 32 are rotatably installed on both sides of the inner wall of the sterilization box 1. Two groups of limiting rollers 32 are distributed on both sides of the guide groove 14. Both groups of limiting rollers 32 are movably connected to the conveyor belt 13 and can pull the conveyor belt 13.

[0028] In this technical solution, when the bagged food driven by the conveyor belt 13 is transported to the interior of the sterilization box 1, the conveyor belt 13 can be pulled by the limiting rollers 32 installed on both sides of the guide groove 14 to prevent the turning rod 21 on the conveyor belt 13 from colliding with the inner wall of the sterilization box 1.

[0029] In some technical solutions, a hook 23 is fixedly installed at the bottom of each set of rotating rods 21, and each set of hooks 23 is connected to bagged food. A guide groove 14 is opened in the middle of one side of the sterilization box 1, and the guide groove 14 is movably connected to the conveyor belt 13.

[0030] In this technical solution, by hanging a large number of unsterilized bagged foods on multiple hooks 23 and driving the conveyor belt 13, multiple groups of bagged foods can be automatically transported to the sterilization box 1. In conjunction with multiple groups of ultraviolet lamps 31 installed inside the sterilization box 1 and the slowly driven conveyor belt 13, multiple groups of bagged foods can be sterilized.

[0031] When using a sterilization device for the production of convenient foods, it should be noted that the utility model is a sterilization device for the production of convenient foods, and each component is a universal standard part or a component known to those skilled in the art. Its structure and principle can be known to those skilled in the art through technical manuals or through conventional experimental methods.

[0032] When in use, a large number of unsterilized bagged foods are first hung on the multiple hooks 23 and the conveyor belt 13 is driven to automatically convey multiple groups of bagged foods to the sterilization box 1. In conjunction with the multiple groups of ultraviolet lamps 31 installed inside the sterilization box 1 and the slowly driven conveyor belt 13, multiple groups of bagged foods can be sterilized. At the same time, when multiple groups of bagged foods are conveyed to the inside of the sterilization box 1 along the conveyor belt 13, they will not only follow the chuck 12 and be driven in a ring shape, so that multiple groups of bagged foods are irradiated by each group of ultraviolet lamps 31 in turn, but also the gear 22 on each group of rotating rods 21 will mesh with the gear ring 25 on the inner side of the mounting frame 24, so that multiple groups of bagged foods are irradiated by each group of ultraviolet lamps 31 in turn. During the irradiation process of the external lamp 31, it continuously rotates to ensure that each group of bagged food can be fully sterilized by the ultraviolet lamp 31. At the same time, multiple groups of equidistantly distributed limiting rings 3 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the side wall of the conveyor belt 13, and the multiple groups of limiting rings 3 are respectively rotatably connected to each group of rotating rods 21. When the conveyor belt 13 transports the bagged food at the bottom of the rotating rod 21 to the inside of the sterilization box 1, the limiting ring 3 rotatably connected to the bottom of the rotating rod 21 can limit the rotating rod 21, ensuring that the gear 22 on each group of rotating rods 21 is engaged with the gear ring 25 on the mounting frame 24, driving the bagged food at the bottom of each group of rotating rods 21 to rotate, further improving the sterilization efficiency.
