Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit and vegetable preservation technology, specifically a fruit and vegetable preservation device. Background Technology

[0002] Vegetables and fruits are a general term referring to both vegetables and fruits. In the diet of Chinese residents, vegetables and fruits are a very important component. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber needed by the human body, while containing relatively little protein and fat. The organic acids, aromatic substances, and various pigments in vegetables and fruits make cooked dishes diverse in flavor and rich in color, which plays a positive role in increasing appetite and promoting digestion.

[0003] Vegetable and fruit preservation devices are mainly used to extend the shelf life of vegetables and fruits and maintain their freshness and nutritional value. These devices inhibit the growth of microorganisms and the metabolism of the food itself by controlling factors such as temperature, humidity, and gas concentration, so as to preserve food.

[0004] In existing technologies, most methods for preserving fruits and vegetables involve low temperatures and water spraying. However, water spraying cannot humidify the entire fruit and vegetable; only some surfaces come into contact with the water mist, resulting in insufficient humidification and poor performance. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a vegetable and fruit preservation device to solve the technical problem that most vegetable and fruit preservation methods use low temperature and water spraying, but the water spraying cannot humidify the entire vegetable and fruit, and only some surfaces come into contact with water mist, resulting in poor humidification effect and poor performance.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the combination of the motor, the first rotating shaft, the first belt, the second rotating shaft, the third rotating shaft, the third belt, the fourth rotating shaft, the fourth belt, and the fifth rotating shaft achieves the effect of the motor driving the first rotating shaft to rotate, thereby achieving the effect of the first belt driving the second rotating shaft to rotate, the second belt driving the third rotating shaft to rotate, the third belt driving the fourth rotating shaft to rotate, and the fourth belt driving the fifth rotating shaft to rotate. The combination of the annular water pipe, the atomizing nozzle, and the connecting pipe achieves the effect of water entering the annular water pipe through the connecting pipe, thereby achieving the effect of water being sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle to moisturize fruits and vegetables.

[0008] Furthermore, a preservation device cover is movably connected to the top of the main body of the preservation device, and handles are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the preservation device cover.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the main body of the preservation device is sealed by the preservation device cover, which slows down the respiration rate of the fruits and vegetables stored inside the preservation device. The preservation device cover can be removed by hand.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the first rotating shaft is driven by a motor, and the position of the motor is fixed by a motor bracket to prevent the position of the motor from shifting during operation.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom of the main body of the preservation device is fixedly connected with four sets of support columns, and the bottom of the support columns is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the outer shell.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, a certain distance is created between the main body and the outer shell of the preservation device through the support column, providing installation space for the motor and allowing space for the atomized water to fall after condensation.

[0014] Furthermore, rollers are fixedly connected to the outer sides of the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth rotating shafts, and rollers are movably connected to the outer sides of the six sets of sixth rotating shafts.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the first, second, third, fourth and fifth rotating shafts drives the rollers to rotate, which in turn drives the rollers movably connected to the outer side of the sixth rotating shaft to rotate passively.

[0016] Furthermore, a connecting pipe is fixedly connected to one end of the annular water pipe, and the connecting pipe passes through the main body and outer shell of the preservation device. A fixing frame is fixedly connected around the annular water pipe, and the fixing frame is fixedly connected to the main body of the preservation device.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, water is transported into the annular water pipe through the connecting pipe, and the position of the annular water pipe is fixed by the fixing bracket.

[0018] Furthermore, the main body of the preservation device has a first cavity, and the outer shell has a second cavity.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, fruits and vegetables are placed in the first cavity inside the main body of the preservation device, and the second cavity inside the outer shell provides installation space for mechanisms such as motors.

[0020] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: Through the combination of a motor, a first rotating shaft, a first belt, a second rotating shaft, a second belt, a third rotating shaft, a third belt, a fourth rotating shaft, a fourth belt, and a fifth rotating shaft, the present invention achieves the effect of the motor driving the first rotating shaft to rotate, thereby achieving the effect of the first belt driving the second rotating shaft to rotate, the second belt driving the third rotating shaft to rotate, the third belt driving the fourth rotating shaft to rotate, and the fourth belt driving the fifth rotating shaft to rotate. Through the combination of the annular water pipe, the atomizing nozzle, and the connecting pipe, water enters the annular water pipe through the connecting pipe, thereby achieving the effect of water being sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle to moisturize fruits and vegetables.
