Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of food processing equipment, specifically a food processing array-type drying oven. Background Technology

[0002] Most food drying equipment on the market currently uses a convection airflow method with warm air blowers at both the top and bottom for drying. This method can easily lead to insufficient and uneven drying of food in the middle area of ​​the chamber. In addition, existing food drying boxes require manual placement of the food to be dried one by one on the racks inside the chamber, a process that is not only cumbersome but also greatly reduces work efficiency.

[0003] Meanwhile, during the food drying process, because ingredients are often piled together, this tight arrangement hinders the flow of hot air, making it difficult for food located inside the material to be fully dried. This not only affects the overall drying effect but may also result in some areas remaining incompletely dried. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides a food processing array-type drying oven to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A food processing array-type drying oven includes a box body, a control panel installed on the side wall of the box body, cabinet doors symmetrically installed on opposite outer walls of the box body, and handles provided on the outer walls of the cabinet doors, vibration components embedded in opposite outer walls of the box body, drying components installed on the outer walls of the box body, and a drain shell provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the box body, with a liquid outlet pipe embedded in the outer wall of the drain shell.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the vibration assembly includes a mounting housing, which is provided in two sets and located on opposite side walls of the housing. An upper fixing plate is installed on the inner wall of the mounting housing, and connecting springs are arranged in an array on the outer wall of the upper fixing plate.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, one end of the connecting spring is provided with a lower fixing plate, wherein the cross-section of the lower fixing plate is L-shaped, a vibration motor is installed on the inner wall of the lower fixing plate, a connecting plate is installed on one side of the vibration motor and on the side wall of the lower fixing plate, and a limiting bottom plate is provided at one end of the connecting plate, wherein the limiting bottom plate is located at the bottom of the inner cavity of the box.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the drying assembly includes a shell and a positioning plate. The shell is installed on the outer wall of the box, and a heater is installed on the inner wall of the shell. An air outlet pipe is installed at the air outlet of the heater. Two sets of positioning plates are provided and are respectively installed on the outer wall of the box. Fixing pipes are installed on the opposing inner walls of the positioning plates.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, one end of the fixed pipe is connected to an air outlet pipe via a conduit, and an array of electrically controlled air volume valves are arranged on the outer wall of the fixed pipe. One end of the electrically controlled air volume valve is provided with a ventilation duct, wherein the ventilation duct is arranged in a 6*4 square array structure, and an array of air outlets are arranged on the outer wall of the ventilation duct. The air outlets are arranged in multiple sets and form a triangular structure.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the control panel is connected to a vibration motor, a warm air blower, and an electrically controlled air volume valve via wires, and the connection method is electrical connection. The cabinet door is located on one side of the control panel, the liquid outlet pipe is located directly below the outer shell, and multiple sets of connecting springs are arranged in an array structure from front to back.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the lower fixing plate is located in the inner cavity of the mounting housing, wherein the lower fixing plate and the mounting housing are connected by a sliding connection, and the connecting plate has an L-shaped structure, wherein multiple sets of connecting plates are arranged from front to back in an array structure.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the limiting base plate is a sieve plate structure and is located directly below the ventilation duct. Multiple sets of electrically controlled air volume valves are arranged in an array from left to right, and the ventilation duct is located in the inner cavity of the box.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model, by setting up a drying component in a food processing array drying oven, enables the drying oven to dry materials. The ventilation ducts in the drying component have a 6*4 multi-connection structure, blowing hot air from multiple directions through the air outlet. The hot air generated by the heater passes through the air outlet pipe, fixed pipe, and ventilation duct in sequence, thereby causing the ventilation duct to blow out warm air to achieve the purpose of drying the food on the storage cart. The temperature and wind speed inside the oven are controlled by the display screen of the control panel, so that the hot air is blown to the surface of the food materials in all directions to achieve the purpose of rapid drying of food. This solves the problem that most food drying equipment on the market currently uses the method of convection blowing by heaters at both ends for drying, which easily leads to insufficient and uneven drying of food in the middle area of ​​the oven.

[0015] This invention, by setting a vibration component in a food processing array drying oven, enables the drying oven to dry materials. The vibration motor in the vibration component drives the limiting base plate to vibrate, which in turn drives the storage cart to vibrate. Subsequently, the materials located inside the storage cart also vibrate. As the materials are vibrated, the gaps between them increase, allowing the ventilation ducts to dry the food quickly. This solves the problem of food often being piled up, which hinders the flow of hot air and makes it difficult for the food inside the material to be fully dried by hot air.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example: Please refer to Figure 1-6The food processing array drying oven shown includes a box body 1, a control panel 2 installed on the side wall of the box body 1, cabinet doors 3 symmetrically installed on opposite outer walls of the box body 1, and handles 4 provided on the outer walls of the cabinet doors 3, vibration components 5 embedded in opposite outer walls of the box body 1, drying components 6 installed on the outer walls of the box body 1, and a drain shell 7 provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the box body 1, with a liquid outlet pipe 8 embedded in the outer wall of the drain shell 7.

[0025] In this embodiment, specific references Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The vibration assembly 5 includes a mounting housing 501. The mounting housing 501 has two sets of mounting housings located on opposite side walls of the housing 1. An upper fixing plate 502 is mounted on the inner wall of the mounting housing 501. Connecting springs 503 are arranged in an array on the outer wall of the upper fixing plate 502. A lower fixing plate 504 is provided at one end of the connecting springs 503. The lower fixing plate 504 has an L-shaped cross-section. A vibration motor 505 is mounted on the inner wall of the lower fixing plate 504. A connecting plate 506 is mounted on one side of the vibration motor 505 and on the side wall of the lower fixing plate 504. A limiting base plate 507 is provided at one end of the connecting plate 506. The limiting base plate 507 is located at the bottom of the inner cavity of the housing 1.

[0026] Based on the above structural and connection relationships, the lower fixing plate 504 is located inside the mounting housing 501. The lower fixing plate 504 and the mounting housing 501 are connected by a sliding connection, allowing the mounting housing 501 to limit the lower fixing plate 504. The connecting plate 506 has an L-shaped structure, with multiple sets arranged in an array from front to back, improving the stability of the device. The limiting base plate 507 is a sieve structure, allowing water from the food materials on the storage cart to drip down. The material drips through the sieve structure onto the limiting base plate 507 and into the inner cavity of the drain housing 7. The water droplets then flow out through the outlet pipe 8 on one side of the drain housing 7. The limiting base plate 507 is located directly below the ventilation duct 607. Multiple sets of connecting springs 503 are arranged in an array from front to back, further enhancing the stability of the device.

[0027] In this embodiment, specific references Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The drying component 6 includes a housing 601 and a positioning plate 602. The housing 601 is installed on the outer wall of the housing 1. A heater 603 is installed on the inner wall of the housing 601. An air outlet 604 is installed at the air outlet of the heater 603. Two sets of positioning plates 602 are provided and are respectively installed on the outer wall of the housing 1. Fixed pipes 605 are installed on the opposing inner walls of the positioning plates 602. One end of the fixed pipe 605 is connected to the air outlet 604 through a conduit. An array of electrically controlled air volume valves 606 is arranged on the outer wall of the fixed pipe 605. A ventilation duct 607 is provided at one end of the electrically controlled air volume valve 606. The ventilation duct 607 is arranged in a 6*4 square array structure. An array of air outlets 608 is arranged on the outer wall of the ventilation duct 607. Multiple sets of air outlets 608 are arranged in a triangular structure.

[0028] Based on the above structural and connection relationships, each ventilation duct 607 has multiple sets of air outlets 608 on its outer wall. The air outlets 608 can blow air in multiple directions to achieve the purpose of fast and uniform drying of food. The control panel 2 has a display screen and switches. The display screen controls the key parameters of the drying box (internal temperature, humidity, and wind speed). At the same time, casters are provided at the bottom corners of the box 1 to facilitate the movement of the box 1.

[0029] The control panel 2 is electrically connected to the vibration motor 505, the warm air blower 603, and the electrically controlled air volume valve 606 via wires, which enables the device to be powered on. The cabinet door 3 is located on one side of the control panel 2 for easy control operation. The liquid outlet pipe 8 is located directly below the outer shell 601. Multiple sets of electrically controlled air volume valves 606 are arranged in an array from left to right. The ventilation duct 607 is located in the inner cavity of the box 1.

[0030] In this food processing array drying oven, the oven is first powered on, then the handle 4 is pulled to open the cabinet door 3. The factory's mobile storage cart is then pushed directly into the inner cavity of the oven body 1, ensuring that the ventilation ducts 607 of the drying components 6 within the oven body 1 are inserted into each layer of the storage cart. The cabinet door 3 is then closed. Next, the control panel 2 is turned on, controlling the operation of the heater 603, which generates hot air. This hot air then passes through the outlet pipe 604, the fixed pipe 605, and the ventilation duct 607, causing the ventilation duct 607 to blow out warm air, thus drying the food on the storage cart. The temperature and airflow inside the oven body 1 are controlled via the display screen on the control panel 2, ensuring that the hot air is blown all around the surface of the food materials for rapid drying. This solves the problem that most food drying equipment on the market uses a top-and-bottom convection method with heaters for drying, which often results in insufficient and uneven drying of the food in the central area of ​​the oven.

[0031] By turning on the switch of the control panel 2, the control panel 2 controls the vibration motor 505 to operate, thereby causing the vibration motor 505 to vibrate. Subsequently, the vibration motor 505 drives the lower fixed plate 504 to vibrate, and then the lower fixed plate 504 drives the limiting base plate 507 to vibrate via the connecting plate 506. Since the storage cart inside the box 1 is located on the base surface of the limiting base plate 507, when the limiting base plate 507 vibrates, it will cause the limiting base plate 507 to vibrate, and then the material inside the storage cart will also vibrate. As the material is vibrated, the gaps between the materials will increase, so that the ventilation duct 607 can quickly dry the food. This solves the problem that food is often piled up together, and this tight arrangement will hinder the flow of hot air, making it difficult for the food inside the material to be fully dried by hot air.

[0032] 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.
