Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sausage processing technology, specifically to an energy-saving hot air circulating sausage dehydration device. Background Technology

[0002] In the food processing industry, cured meat sausages are a traditional delicacy, and the air-drying process is crucial. Traditional air-drying methods rely heavily on natural environmental and climatic conditions, such as sunlight and wind, to dry and preserve the sausages. However, this natural air-drying method has many limitations. For example, a cured meat sausage air-drying device disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent Application No. 202323177144.8, although improving the flexibility of air-drying to some extent through the design of adjustable loading and unloading components and transmission motors, still mainly relies on natural light and natural wind from a fan for drying.

[0003] However, in practical applications, natural light exposure is often affected by various factors such as weather, season, and geographical location, leading to unstable air-drying results. Furthermore, relying solely on fan-based drying methods is relatively inefficient and cannot meet the demands of large-scale production and rapid air-drying. Therefore, overcoming these problems in existing technologies and improving the stability and efficiency of air-drying cured sausages has become a pressing technical challenge in the current food processing industry. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an energy-saving hot air circulating sausage dehydration device to solve the problems in the background technology.

[0020] 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.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model discloses an energy-saving hot air circulating sausage dehydration device, which includes a sealed chamber 1, a hanging mechanism 2 for hanging sausages in the sealed chamber 1, and a hot air circulating mechanism 3 connected to the sealed chamber 1.

[0022] In this embodiment, the hot air circulation mechanism 3 includes a drying chamber 31, a blower 32, and an electric heating device 33. The electric heating device 33 can be an electric heating wire structure. During installation, the air outlet of the blower 32 is connected to the air inlet of the electric heating device 33. The air outlet of the electric heating device 33 is connected to one end of the sealing chamber 1 through a first connecting pipe 34. The other end of the sealing chamber 1 is connected to the drying chamber 31 through a second connecting pipe 35. The drying chamber 31 is connected to the air inlet of the blower 32 through a third connecting pipe 36.

[0023] In use, the sausages to be dehydrated are suspended on the hanging mechanism 2. The air is heated by the electric heating device 33, and the external power supply of the blower 32 is connected. The hot air is blown into the sealed chamber 1 through the first connecting pipe 34. When the hot air enters the sealed chamber 1, it dries the suspended sausages. Then, the humid hot air enters the drying chamber 31 through the second connecting pipe 35 and is dried in the drying chamber 31. The dried hot air enters the blower 32 again through the air inlet of the blower 32. This cycle is repeated so that the moisture contained in the sausages is gradually dried. This hot air circulation method has a good energy-saving effect.

[0024] Understandably, after multiple hot air cycles, the interior of the drying chamber 31 gradually becomes damp, resulting in a decrease in drying efficiency. To restore the drying capacity of the drying chamber 31, a fourth connecting pipe 37 is connected between the air outlet of the electric heating device 33 and the drying chamber 31. An exhaust pipe 38 is installed on the top of the drying chamber 31, and an air inlet pipe 39 is installed at the air inlet of the blower 32. In some embodiments, a humidity sensor (not shown in the figure) can be installed inside the drying chamber 31. When the humidity is high, the air blown out by the blower 32 can directly enter the drying chamber 31 after passing through the electric heating device 33 to dry the drying chamber 31. Then, the air entering the drying chamber 31 can be directly discharged through the exhaust pipe 38, while external air is continuously replenished into the blower 32 through the air inlet pipe 39.

[0025] Among them, the first connecting pipe 34, the second connecting pipe 35, the fourth connecting pipe 37, the exhaust pipe 38, and the air inlet pipe 39 are all equipped with valves 4. By controlling the opening and closing of the valves 4, two working modes can be realized:

[0026] Mode 1: During the normal drying process of sausages.

[0027] Open valves 4 of the first connecting pipe 34 and the second connecting pipe 35, start the blower 32 and the electric heating device 33, so that hot air enters the sealing chamber 1 from the first connecting pipe 34, enters the second connecting pipe 35 through the sealing chamber 1, enters the drying chamber 31 through the second connecting pipe 35, enters the third connecting pipe 36 through the drying chamber 31, and returns to the blower 32 through the third connecting pipe 36, thus realizing the cycle.

[0028] Mode 2, when drying oven 31 is required.

[0029] Open valve 4 of air inlet pipe 39, fourth connecting pipe 37 and exhaust pipe 38 so that outside air enters blower 32 through air inlet pipe 39, enters electric heating device 33 through blower 32, enters fourth connecting pipe 37 through electric heating device 33, enters drying chamber 31 through fourth connecting pipe 37, and is then discharged to the outside through exhaust pipe 38.

[0030] In some embodiments, the suspension mechanism 2 includes a slide rail 21 fixed to the upper end of the sealed chamber 1. A hanging rod 22 is slidably inserted into the slide rail 21. A hanging hole 23 is provided through the hanging rod 22 along its length. In use, the hanging rod 22 can be pulled out to facilitate hanging the sausage on the hanging rod 22 through the hanging hole 23.

[0031] The sealed chamber 1 has an opening on the front, and the front of the sealed chamber 1 is provided with several sealed chamber doors 5 along the length direction. By setting multiple sealed chamber doors 5, the corresponding sealed chamber door 5 can be opened individually when taking out or putting in sausages, thereby reducing heat loss.

[0032] In some embodiments, an oil receiving trough 6 is placed at the lower end of the sealed chamber 1 corresponding to the position of each sealed chamber door 5.

[0033] In some embodiments, the sealing chamber door 5 is rotatably connected to the sealing chamber 1.

[0034] In some embodiments, the drying chamber 31 contains a solid desiccant, and the drying chamber 31 is equipped with a stirring mechanism 7 for stirring the solid desiccant.

[0035] In some embodiments, the stirring mechanism 7 includes a servo motor 71 fixed to the top of the drying chamber 31. The output shaft of the servo motor 71 is connected to a stirring rod 72. The stirring rod 72 is rotatably disposed inside the drying chamber 31, and a stirring blade 73 is fixed to the side of the stirring rod 72. In use, the external power supply of the servo motor 71 is turned on, and the servo motor 71 drives the stirring rod 72 to rotate. When the stirring rod 72 rotates, it drives the stirring blade 73 to rotate, thereby stirring the desiccant and making the desiccant come into better contact with the hot air.

[0036] Valve 4 is an electrically controlled valve.

[0037] In summary, this utility model aims to realize an energy-saving and efficient sausage dehydration device. By setting up a sealed chamber 1, a suspension mechanism 2 and a hot air circulation mechanism 3, the air is heated by an electric heating device 33 and the circulating hot air is generated by a blower 32 to dehydrate the sausage. At the same time, a drying box 31 and a stirring mechanism 7 are set up to dry the circulating hot air, so as to improve the stability and efficiency of air drying and meet the needs of large-scale production and rapid air drying.

[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
