[0002] Prunes, usually referring to prunes, are a type of plum. Prunes are oval in shape, with thin skin, and come in colors such as purple, blue, and yellow. The flesh is sweet and juicy, rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. To make dried prunes, the prunes are washed, pitted, and then sun-dried or oven-dried. Dried prunes have a rich flavor and are often used as snacks or baking ingredients.
[0003] Many existing drying racks are large and difficult to fold and store after use, resulting in them taking up a lot of storage space. This problem is particularly prominent among family fruit growers and small-scale producers, as their flexibility and convenience are limited. In addition, plums are easily contaminated by insects such as flies when drying in the natural environment, which affects the hygiene and quality of the fruit. Utility Model Content

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Example 1:
[0028] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, a plum drying rack includes:
[0029] First supporting leg 1;
[0030] The second support leg 2 is rotatably connected to the outside of the first support leg 1;
[0031] Rotary seat 3 is located at the top of the first support leg 1 and the second support leg 2;
[0032] Folding mechanism 4 is installed on the top of rotating seat 3. Folding mechanism 4 is provided with movable mechanism 5 on the outside of folding mechanism 4. Folding mechanism 4 is provided with shielding mechanism 6 on the top of folding mechanism 4. Folding mechanism 4 includes drying platform 401, first folding drying platform 402 and second folding drying platform 403. Drying platform 401 is fixedly connected to the top of rotating seat 3. First folding drying platform 402 is provided on the outside of drying platform 401. Second folding drying platform 403 is installed on the top of drying platform 401. First folding drying platform 402 and second folding drying platform 403 are rotatably connected on the outside of drying platform 401. Drying board is provided on the top of first folding drying platform 402 and second folding drying platform 403.
[0033] Specifically, the first folding drying platform 402 and the second folding drying platform 403 can be folded outside the drying platform 401 through the setting of the movable mechanism 5, so as to facilitate the convenient storage of the drying rack.
[0034] As can be seen from the above, when the rotating rod 503 rotates outside the rotating shaft 502, the first folding drying platform 402 and the second folding drying platform 403 can be folded outside the drying platform 401. Furthermore, through the rotational connection between the first support leg 1 and the rotating seat 3, the first support leg 1 and the second support leg 2 can be folded. This makes it convenient for the drying rack to be folded as a whole when not in use, and facilitates the convenient carrying and storage of the drying rack.
[0035] Example 2:
[0036] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the movable mechanism 5 includes a mounting base 501, a rotating shaft 502, and a rotating rod 503. The mounting base 501 is fixedly connected to the outside of the drying platform 401. The rotating shaft 502 is inserted inside the mounting base 501, and the rotating rod 503 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 502. The rotating rod 503 is rotatably connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 502. One side of the rotating rod 503 is fixedly connected to the outside of the first folding drying platform 402. The covering mechanism 6 includes a fixed base 601, a retractable... A coil spring 602 and a take-up wheel 603 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first folding drying platform 402 by a fixing base 601. A take-up spring 602 is installed on one side of the fixing base 601. A take-up wheel 603 is sleeved on the outside of the take-up spring 602. A protective net 604 is wound around the outside of the take-up wheel 603. The take-up wheel 603 and the take-up spring 602 are elastically telescopically connected. The surface of the protective net 604 has multiple holes and slots. The protective net 604 is elastically wound around the outside of the take-up wheel 603.
[0037] Specifically, the first folding drying platform 402 can be rotated and folded by the rotating rod 503 on the rotating shaft 502, and the protective net 604 can be elastically wound on the winding wheel 603, which facilitates the stretching and adjustment of the length of the protective net 604.
[0038] As can be seen from the above, when the protective net 604 is stretched, the protective net 604 can be stretched in length by the winding of the protective net 604 on the winding wheel 603 and the elastic rotation between the winding wheel 603 and the winding spring 602. This allows the protective net 604 to cover the outside of the drying platform 401 and the second folding drying platform 403 after it is stretched, thereby shielding the dried plums and preventing flies and other insects from contaminating the plums.
