Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of Codonopsis pilosula processing technology, and specifically relates to a drying device for Codonopsis pilosula by-products before extraction. Background Technology
[0002] During the processing of Codonopsis pilosula, it is usually necessary to cut off some unusable root scraps from the plant. Although these scraps cannot be used for medicinal purposes, they can be dried, crushed, and used as livestock feed.
[0003] Currently, Chinese utility model patent CN216115181U discloses a ginseng drying device, specifically relating to the field of ginseng drying devices. It includes a base, a housing fixedly mounted on the top of the base, a motor fixedly mounted on one side of the housing, and a cabinet door at the front of the housing, which is slidably connected to the housing. This utility model, by incorporating a motor, an upper rack, a lower rack, and guide rods, allows the ginseng to be dried to be placed on the lower rack. Then, an electromagnet at the top of the upper rack is activated, causing the lower rack to be attracted upwards by the electromagnet's magnetic force, clamping the ginseng between the upper and lower racks. Simultaneously, a fan and an electric heating mesh inside the base are activated, converting the airflow generated by the fan into hot air through the electric heating mesh to dry the ginseng. During the drying process, a motor on one side of the housing is activated, driving a rotating shaft that rotates the upper and lower racks, turning the ginseng over, significantly improving the drying efficiency and effect.
[0004] Existing drying equipment for Codonopsis pilosula by-products dries hot air from one side of the oven, resulting in insufficient airflow and difficulty in reaching all the by-products. Consequently, by-products near the air inlet dry faster than those further away, leading to uneven drying. Furthermore, the inability to move the by-products within the oven hinders drying the material on the back side, further reducing drying efficiency and overall effectiveness. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying device for the extraction of Codonopsis pilosula by-products, which has the advantage of making the hot air flow inside the drying oven more dispersed and improving the drying efficiency of Codonopsis pilosula by-products.

[0011] The above technical solution allows for easy disassembly of the inner and outer mesh cylinders, enabling the emptying of the dried Codonopsis pilosula waste material.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: an electric heating mesh is bolted to the top of the inner cavity of the oven, and air inlets for use with the electric heating mesh are opened on both sides of the bottom of the oven.
[0013] Using the above technical solution, outside air enters through the air inlet and is heated and dried by an electric heating network, thereby drying the Codonopsis pilosula scraps inside the oven.
[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: both sides of the top of the oven are provided with exhaust holes, and the air inlet and exhaust holes are connected to each other through the air dissipation hole.
[0015] Using the above technical solution, the steam from the dried ginseng scraps can be discharged from the oven through the exhaust vent.
[0016] The present invention is further configured such that the inner wall of the oven is filled with a heat-insulating lining.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the interior of the oven is insulated to reduce heat loss.
[0018] The present invention is further configured such that: a sealing door is hinged to one side of the surface of the oven, and an observation window is bolted to the inside of the sealing door.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the dried Codonopsis pilosula scraps between the inner and outer mesh cylinders can be removed and new Codonopsis pilosula scraps can be placed by opening the sealed door. At the same time, the observation window facilitates the observation of the drying status of the Codonopsis pilosula scraps inside the drying oven.
[0020] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. A fan blows heated, dry air evenly from different positions on the surface of the central column through air vents, allowing the hot air to continuously flow between the inner and outer mesh cylinders for drying. This improves the uniformity of drying the Codonopsis pilosula by-products.
[0022] 2. The ginseng scraps between the inner and outer mesh cylinders rotate simultaneously as they revolve around the central column. This facilitates the drying of ginseng scraps at different locations, ensures the flow of hot air on the surface of the scraps, and improves drying efficiency. Attached Figure Description

An output shaft 3, which rotatably connects to the oven 1 and the central column 14, is bolted to the output end of the motor 2. A fan 16 is bolted to the end of the output shaft 3 furthest from the motor 2. The fan 16 blows heated, dry air evenly from different positions on the surface of the central column 14 through the ventilation holes 15, allowing the hot air to continuously flow between the inner and outer mesh cylinders 10 for drying. This improves the uniformity of drying the Codonopsis pilosula by-products.
[0030] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 A connecting rod 8 is slidably inserted into the bottom of the rotating seat 5. An inner mesh cylinder 10 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the connecting rod 8. A fastening bolt 9, which is threaded through and engages with the connecting rod 8, is threaded through one side of the rotating seat 5. A fixing plate 11 is slidably sleeved at the end of the connecting rod 8 away from the rotating seat 5. An outer mesh cylinder 13, which is bolted to the top of the fixing plate 11, is sleeved on the surface of the inner mesh cylinder 10. A locking nut 12, which is threadedly sleeved with the connecting rod 8, is provided at the bottom of the fixing plate 11. This facilitates the disassembly of the inner mesh cylinder 10 and the outer mesh cylinder 13, allowing the dried ginseng scraps inside to be poured out.
[0031] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 An electric heating mesh 17 is bolted to the top of the inner cavity of the oven 1, and air inlets 18 are opened on both sides of the bottom of the oven 1 to work with the electric heating mesh 17. Outside air enters through the air inlets 18 and is heated and dried by the electric heating mesh 17, thereby drying the Codonopsis pilosula scraps inside the oven 1.
[0032] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 Both sides of the top of the drying oven 1 have exhaust vents 19, and the air inlet vent 18 and the exhaust vent 19 are connected to each other through the air vent 15. The steam after drying the waste material of Codonopsis pilosula can be discharged from the drying oven 1 through the exhaust vents 19.
[0033] Brief description of the operation: By turning on the motor 2, the output shaft 3 is rotated, causing the fan 16 to draw in dry air that has been heated by the electric heating mesh 17. The air is then evenly blown out from the surface of the central column 14 through the air diffuser 15, allowing the dry air to flow back and forth between the inner mesh cylinder 10 and the outer mesh cylinder 13, heating and drying the ginseng scraps at different locations within the oven. Finally, the dried air removes the evaporated moisture from the oven 1 after drying the ginseng scraps.
[0034] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 A drying device for extracting Codonopsis pilosula by-products is disclosed. A rotating disk 4, fixedly sleeved with an output shaft 3, is slidably connected between the top of a central column 14 and a drying oven 1. Rotating seats 5 are rotatably connected to both sides inside the rotating disk 4. A ring-shaped rack 7 is bolted to the top of the inner cavity of the drying oven 1, and a disc gear 6 meshing with the ring-shaped rack 7 is fixedly sleeved to the top of the rotating seats 5. The Codonopsis pilosula by-products between the inner and outer mesh cylinders 10 and 13 rotate simultaneously as they revolve around the central column 14. This facilitates drying of Codonopsis pilosula by-products at different locations, ensures the flow of hot air on the surface of the by-products, and improves drying efficiency.
[0035] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 The inner wall of oven 1 is filled with an insulating lining 20. This provides insulation to the interior of oven 1, reducing heat loss.
[0036] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 A sealing door 21 is hinged to one side of the surface of the drying oven 1, and an observation window 22 is bolted inside the sealing door 21. By opening the sealing door 21, the dried Codonopsis pilosula scraps between the inner mesh cylinder 10 and the outer mesh cylinder 13 can be removed, and new Codonopsis pilosula scraps can be placed. At the same time, the observation window 22 facilitates the observation of the drying status of the Codonopsis pilosula scraps inside the drying oven 1.
[0037] Brief description of the operation: When the output shaft 3 is driven by the motor 2, the rotating disk 4 is simultaneously driven to rotate, so that the rotating disk 4 can drive the Codonopsis pilosula scrap between the inner mesh cylinder 10 and the outer mesh cylinder 13 to rotate around the center of the central column 14. At the same time, the top of the rotating seat 5 and the disc gear 6 mesh with the fixed ring racks 7 during the rotation, so that the rotating seat 5 can also rotate on its own axis while revolving around the central column 14. In this way, the Codonopsis pilosula scrap at different positions between the inner mesh cylinder 10 and the outer mesh cylinder 13 can all be rotated to the position of the air vent 15 for hot air drying, and the flowability of hot air on the surface of the Codonopsis pilosula scrap is improved.
