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.
[0029] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a drying device for the production of fructooligosaccharides, including a vacuum tank 1, a waterproof membrane 2, a support frame 3, an electric telescopic rod 4, an adjusting plate 5, a limiting plate 6, a connecting wheel 7, a baffle 8, a nozzle 9, an air supply pipe 10, a connecting pipe 11, an upper mounting cylinder 12, an electric heating tube 13, a lower mounting cylinder 14, and a dryer 15.
[0030] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 4As shown, the material is put into the vacuum tank 1. A waterproof membrane 2 is installed at the bottom of the interior of the vacuum tank 1 to prevent moisture from flowing into the connecting pipe 11. The electric heating tube 13 generates heat and delivers it to the vacuum tank 1 through the connecting pipe 11 to dry the material in the vacuum tank 1. Specific Implementation Example 1;
[0032] Existing drying equipment for fructooligosaccharide production is inconvenient for material feeding and easily produces material residue. To solve this technical problem, this embodiment is illustrated in the appendix. Figure 1 and attached Figure 3 As shown, the electric telescopic rod 4 installed inside the support frame 3 is opened. The electric telescopic rod 4 drives the adjustment plate 5 installed at its output end to move, so that the adjustment plate 5 slides outside the limiting plate 6 connected to it in the slot. The limiting plate 6 fixed on the support frame 3 limits the adjustment plate 5. The adjustment plate 5 pushes the connecting wheel 7 meshing with it in the inner side, so that the connecting wheel 7 rotates in the support frame 3. The connecting wheel 7 drives the baffle 8 integrated with it to rotate. The baffle 8 rotates in the vacuum tank 1 connected to it in the slot, and drives the nozzle 9 installed inside it to rotate. The nozzle 9 is connected to the air pump through the air supply pipe 10 to blow air into the vacuum tank 1 to assist the material on the waterproof membrane 2 to be discharged. The baffle 8 drives the nozzle 9 to rotate, increasing the blowing range. Since the cross-section of the baffle 8 is semi-circular, it avoids the generation of residue. Specific Implementation Example 2;
[0034] Existing drying equipment for fructooligosaccharide production makes it inconvenient to disassemble and repair the heating element 13. To solve this technical problem, this embodiment is illustrated in the appendix. Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 As shown, rotate the upper mounting cylinder 12, which is threadedly connected to the connecting pipe 11, to disengage the upper mounting cylinder 12 from the threaded connection with the heating tube 13 until the upper mounting cylinder 12 is fully connected to the lower end of the connecting pipe 11. Then, rotate the lower mounting cylinder 14, which is threadedly connected to the dryer 15, to disengage it from the threaded connection with the heating tube 13 until the lower mounting cylinder 14 is fully connected to the top end of the dryer 15. The heating tube 13 can then be removed from between the connecting pipe 11 and the dryer 15 for inspection. Place the inspected heating tube 13 between the connecting pipe 11 and the dryer 15, and rotate the upper mounting cylinder 12 and the lower mounting cylinder 14 to thread them onto the upper and lower ends of the heating tube 13, respectively, thus fixing the heating tube 13 between the connecting pipe 11 and the dryer 15.
