Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of air drying equipment technology, and in particular to a fully adjustable air knife dryer for wine production. Background Technology
[0002] Wine is an alcoholic beverage made from fresh grapes or grape juice through fermentation. It is a simple sugar-based wine. During the processing of bottled wine, a drying machine is needed to quickly dry the water or liquid on the outside of the bottle.
[0003] An existing air knife dryer with announcement number CN219674722U uses a mechanical structure that starts when the bottle approaches the air knife assembly, so that the bottle is dried all around, including front, back, left and right, while it is moving, ensuring that no moisture remains around the bottle.
[0004] However, in actual production and use, the movement range of the left air knife, right air knife and upper air knife is small, the working range is small, and the production pace is slow.
[0005] Therefore, we propose a fully adjustable air knife dryer for wine production. Utility Model Content
[0006] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide a fully adjustable air knife dryer for wine production, so as to increase the working range of the air knife and improve the production speed by moving the air knife in a large range.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides the following technical solution:

Detailed Implementation
[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The present application provides an embodiment of a fully adjustable air knife dryer for wine production, which includes a frame 1 and a placement table 2, wherein the frame 1 is provided with a sliding placement table 2.
[0028] A drying assembly is installed on the top of the frame 1. The drying assembly includes: a linear cylinder 4, a horizontal plate 401, a rotary cylinder 402, a connecting plate 403, a mounting sleeve 404, a sleeve 405, a gear 406, a slip ring 407, an air knife 408, and a rack 409. The linear cylinder 4 is installed on the top of the frame 1. The horizontal plate 401 is installed on the telescopic end of the linear cylinder 4. The rotary cylinder 402 is installed on the bottom of the horizontal plate 401. The connecting plate 403 is installed on the rotor part of the rotary cylinder 402. The mounting sleeve 404 is slidably connected to the vertical part of the connecting plate 403. The sleeve 405 passes through the mounting sleeve 404. The gear 406 is sleeved on the outside of the sleeve 405. The slip ring 407 passes through the sleeve 405. The air knife 408 is installed on one end of the sleeve 405. The rack 409 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 403.
[0029] The placement table 2 is used to place wine products that need to be dried. By sliding the placement table 2 along the frame 1, the wine products can move through the working range of the drying components.
[0030] The linear cylinder 4 drives the horizontal plate 401 to move downward until the mounting sleeve 404 fits against the surface of the placement platform 2, so that the two relatively staggered air knives 408 are on both sides of the wine product. By connecting the rotary cylinder 402 to an external pressure air source, the rotary cylinder 402 drives the connecting plate 403 to rotate, so that the air knives 408 rotate around the wine product, thereby quickly drying the moisture or liquid on the surface of the wine product.
[0031] The linear cylinder 4 drives the horizontal plate 401 to continue moving downwards, and the mounting sleeve 404 begins to slide relative to the connecting plate 403. Because the rack 409 meshes with the gear 406, the rack 409 drives the gear 406 to rotate, causing the air knife 408 to rotate. During the rotation of the air knife 408, the movement range of the air knife 408 is increased by rotating around the wine product, thereby increasing the working range of the air knife 408 and accelerating the pace of the drying process.
[0032] In this embodiment, as Figures 2-5 As shown, the top of the mounting sleeve 404 has a through hole, and the rack 409 passes through the top through hole of the mounting sleeve 404, and the rack 409 and the gear 406 establish a transmission relationship.
[0033] The mounting sleeve 404 slides with the rack 409, one end of which is fixed to the connecting plate 403, which can limit the mounting sleeve 404.
[0034] The vertical portion of the connecting plate 403 has a strip-shaped hole, and the outer side wall of the mounting sleeve 404 has a protrusion that passes through the strip-shaped hole of the connecting plate 403.
[0035] The mounting sleeve 404 and the connecting plate 403 are tightly connected through the fit of the strip hole and the protrusion. At the same time, the mounting sleeve 404 can slide relative to the connecting plate 403. Under the action of natural gravity, the mounting sleeve 404 can automatically be positioned at the bottom of the strip hole. At this time, the air knife 408 is in a vertical position. The rotating cylinder 402 can drive the air knife 408 to rotate 360 degrees around the wine product, so as to dry the outer surface of the wine product from all directions.
[0036] The length of the air knife 408 can be greater than the height of the product, thereby ensuring that the airflow can act on the upper surface and outer periphery of the product.
[0037] The medium input end of the air slip ring 407 is connected to an external pressure air source, and the medium output end of the air slip ring 407 is connected to the air knife 408.
[0038] The air slip ring 407 is used to supply air to the air knife 408 and enables the air knife 408 to rotate 360 degrees around the sleeve 405, thereby maintaining the working rhythm of the air knife 408. The medium input end of the air slip ring 407 can be connected to an external pressure air source through a spring-shaped pipe.
[0039] A return spring 4041 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting sleeve 404, and the other end of the return spring 4041 is connected to the horizontal part of the connecting plate 403.
[0040] The return spring 4041 is used to quickly restore the air knife 408 to a vertical position, thereby speeding up the production pace.
[0041] A slide rail 3 is provided between the placement platform 2 and the frame 1. The slide rail 3 includes a lead screw 301, a slider 302 and a motor 303. The lead screw 301 passes through the slide rail 3. The slider 302 is connected to the lead screw 301 by a thread. The motor 303 establishes a transmission relationship with the lead screw 301.
[0042] Through the cooperation of slide rail 3, lead screw 301, slider 302 and motor 303, the placement platform 2 can move horizontally relative to the frame 1, thereby facilitating the loading and unloading of products onto the placement platform 2.
[0043] The placement platform 2 is located directly below the air knife 408, and the length of the placement platform 2 is three times the length of the frame 1;
[0044] The placement table 2 always has a section that rests on the air knife 408. Through the motor 303 with reverse and braking functions, the horizontal reciprocating motion of the placement table 2 relative to the frame 1 is realized. During use, the working range of the placement table 2 relative to the air knife 408 can be flexibly adjusted to speed up the production pace.
[0045] The motor 303 is equipped with a matching controller and power supply.
