Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vegetable dehydration devices, and more particularly to a vegetable dehydration device before freezing. Background Technology

[0002] Dehydrating vegetables before freezing can significantly extend their shelf life. By removing most of the water from the vegetables, the environment for microbial growth is reduced, thus preventing the vegetables from rotting and spoiling. This method makes the vegetables more stable during storage and allows them to remain fresh for a longer period of time. In some dehydration devices, the vegetables are placed in hot air during the dehydration process, and the water in the vegetables is evaporated by the hot air.

[0003] However, in traditional hot air dehydration devices, the position of the hot air jet head remains fixed. Therefore, during the dehydration process, the hot air blows on the vegetables in one direction, which may lead to uneven dehydration and reduce the effectiveness of vegetable dehydration. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to ensure that hot air is blown evenly onto vegetables and to avoid uneven dehydration, this application provides a vegetable dehydration device before freezing.

[0005] This application provides a vegetable dehydration device before freezing, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A vegetable dehydration device before freezing includes a connecting bucket with a top cover fixedly connected to its top. The top cover has a drying structure, which includes a vertical pipe and horizontal pipes. The top cover has a vertical pipe fixedly connected to it, and multiple horizontal pipes are fixedly connected to the vertical pipes. Multiple air jets are fixedly connected to the horizontal pipes. A toothed ring is rotatably connected to the top cover, and a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the toothed ring. Multiple brackets are fixedly connected to the connecting frame, and each bracket has two placement slots. A tray is engaged inside each placement slot. The connecting bucket has a limiting structure, and a sealing door is rotatably connected to it.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the top of the vertical pipe can be connected to the air outlet pipe of the hot air blower. When vegetables need to be dehydrated, they can be evenly placed inside the tray, and then multiple trays can be placed on the rack in sequence. The trays can be positioned by setting placement slots. After multiple trays are placed, the sealing door can be closed. After the sealing door is closed, it can be limited by a limiting structure to prevent the sealing door from opening automatically during the dehydration process. Then, by rotating the toothed ring, the connecting frame will rotate, and multiple trays will rotate with the connecting frame. At the same time, hot air can enter the interior of the vertical pipe. After entering the interior of the vertical pipe, the hot air will enter the interior of multiple horizontal pipes and finally be sprayed out from multiple jet nozzles. Since the vegetables are rotating with the trays, they can fully contact the hot air, thus making the vegetables dry more evenly and effectively ensuring the dehydration effect of the vegetables.

[0008] Optionally, a motor is mounted on the top cover, and a gear is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor, with the gear meshing with a gear ring.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor is started, the output shaft of the motor rotates, which drives the gear to rotate, the gear drives the gear ring to rotate, the gear ring drives the connecting frame to rotate, and the pallet will rotate together with the connecting frame, thereby realizing the movement of the pallet.

[0010] Optionally, multiple horizontal tubes located on the same side of the vertical tube are linearly equidistant from each other, multiple horizontal tubes located on both sides of the vertical tube are symmetrically distributed about the middle of the vertical tube, multiple air jets located on the same horizontal tube are linearly equidistant from each other, and multiple brackets are linearly equidistant from each other.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution and setting multiple jet heads, the range of hot air blowing can be increased, so that the hot air can fully cover the tray, thus effectively ensuring the drying and dehydration effect of vegetables.

[0012] Optionally, a handle is fixedly connected to the tray, and the handle has an L-shaped cross-section.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the pallet can be easily moved using a hand handle.

[0014] Optionally, a door handle is fixedly connected to the sealed door, and the cross-section of the end of the door handle is L-shaped.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealed door can be easily opened or closed by holding the door handle.

[0016] Optionally, the limiting structure includes a locking block and a return spring, the locking block is slidably connected to the connecting barrel, and a locking rod is fixedly connected to the locking block.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the sealed door is closed, the locking block can engage with the sealed door to limit its movement, preventing the sealed door from opening automatically and thus improving the stability of use.

[0018] Optionally, the bottom end of the connecting frame is provided with a second slot, and the bottom end of the sealing door is provided with a first slot.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the pallet needs to be removed, the connecting frame can be limited by the engagement between the locking block and the second locking slot. Therefore, the connecting frame can be prevented from rotating when the pallet is removed, which makes the pallet removal work more convenient.

[0020] Optionally, the connecting barrel is provided with a return spring inside, one end of the return spring abutting against the locking block, and the other end of the return spring abutting against the connecting barrel, and the locking block has an L-shaped cross-section.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, when the locking block is released, it can automatically engage with the first locking slot under the action of the return spring, thereby achieving the limiting of the sealing door.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0023] 1. During the dehydration process of vegetables, multiple trays can be moved, which will cause the vegetables to come into full contact with the hot air, thereby achieving uniform drying of the vegetables and effectively ensuring the dehydration effect of the vegetables;

[0024] 2. Vegetables can be placed on a tray. Since the tray and the rack are detachable, once the vegetables are dried, simply remove the tray from the rack and then pour the dehydrated vegetables out of the tray all at once, thus achieving quick removal of the dehydrated vegetables.

[0025] 3. During the process of removing the pallet, the connecting frame can be limited by the limiting structure, thus preventing the connecting frame from rotating and making it easier to remove the pallet. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-7 This application will be described in further detail.

[0035] This application discloses a vegetable dehydration device before freezing. (See also...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 A vegetable dehydration device before freezing includes a connecting bucket 1, a top cover 2 fixedly connected to the top of the connecting bucket 1, and a drying structure 3 provided on the top cover 2.

[0036] By setting the placement slot 309, the tray 4 can be positioned, thus preventing the tray 4 from moving during the process, thereby effectively improving the stability of use. After multiple trays 4 are placed, the sealing door 6 can be closed.

[0037] The door handle 7 allows for easy rotation of the sealing door 6. Once the sealing door 6 is fully closed, the gear ring 306 can be rotated. The rotation of the gear ring 306 will cause the connecting frame 307 to rotate, and the multiple trays 4 will rotate together with the connecting frame 307. At the same time, hot air can enter the interior of the vertical pipe 301. After entering the interior of the vertical pipe 301, the hot air will enter the interior of the multiple horizontal pipes 302 and finally be sprayed out from the multiple jet nozzles 303. By setting multiple jet nozzles 303, the hot air can completely cover the trays 4. Since the vegetables rotate together with the trays 4, they can fully contact the hot air, thereby making the vegetables dry more evenly and effectively ensuring the dehydration effect of the vegetables.

[0038] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The limiting structure 8 includes a locking block 801 and a return spring 803. The locking block 801 is slidably connected to the connecting barrel 1, and a locking rod 802 is fixedly connected to the locking block 801.

[0039] When the sealing door 6 is fully closed, the locking block 801 will engage with the first locking slot 804 under the action of the return spring 803. At this time, the sealing door 6 will not be able to rotate, and the locking rod 802 will not engage with the second locking slot 805 due to the resistance of the sealing door 6. Therefore, the connecting frame 307 can rotate freely, which is convenient for the subsequent rotation of the connecting frame 307 by the motor 304. When the sealing door 6 is opened, the sealing door 6 will lose its resistance to the locking block 801. Therefore, when the connecting frame 307 rotates to the designated position, the return spring 803 will extend and drive the locking block 801 to move. The movement of the locking block 801 will drive the locking rod 802 to engage with the second locking slot 805. At this time, the connecting frame 307 will not be able to rotate, thus preventing the connecting frame 307 from rotating when the tray 4 is taken out, thus facilitating the removal of the tray 4.

[0040] This application discloses an implementation principle of a vegetable dehydration device before freezing: During use, the top of the vertical pipe 301 can be connected to the air outlet pipe of a hot air blower. When dehydration of vegetables is required, the vegetables can be evenly placed inside the tray 4. Then, multiple trays 4 are sequentially placed onto the bracket 308 using the handle 5. The tray 4 is positioned by the placement groove 309, thus preventing movement during operation and effectively improving stability. After multiple trays 4 are placed, the sealing door 6 can be closed. When the sealing door 6 is fully closed, the locking block 801 engages with the first locking groove 804, while the locking rod 802 does not engage with the second locking groove 805. After the sealing door 6 is fully closed, the gear ring 306 can be rotated. The rotation of the gear ring 306 will drive the connecting frame 307 to rotate, and the multiple trays 4 will rotate together with the connecting frame 307. At the same time, hot air can enter the vertical pipe. Inside the vertical pipe 301, hot air enters the vertical pipe 301 and then enters multiple horizontal pipes 302, finally being sprayed out from multiple jet nozzles 303. By setting multiple jet nozzles 303, the hot air can completely cover the tray 4. Since the vegetables rotate together with the tray 4, they can fully contact the hot air, thus making the vegetables dry more evenly and effectively ensuring the dehydration effect. After drying, the locking block 801 can be stepped on. When the locking block 801 is not engaged with the first locking groove 804, the sealing door 6 can be opened. After the sealing door 6 is opened, the sealing door 6 will lose its resistance to the locking block 801. Therefore, when the connecting frame 307 rotates to the designated position, the return spring 803 will extend and drive the locking block 801 to move. The movement of the locking block 801 will cause the locking rod 802 to engage with the second locking groove 805. At this time, the connecting frame 307 cannot rotate. Then, multiple trays 4 can be removed from the bracket 307 one by one.

[0041] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
