[0021] The present invention will now be clearly described with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This description is merely for explaining the present invention and is not intended to limit it. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort to obtain all other embodiments should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a food processing cooling device, including a conveyor, which is a mesh belt conveyor. A cooling box 1 is provided on the frame of the conveyor. The conveyor mesh belt 10 enters the cooling box 1 from the inlet 6 and extends from the outlet 14 of the cooling box 1. An upper air guide pipe 2 is provided in the cooling box 1 above the conveyor mesh belt 10. The upper air guide pipe 2 is connected to an upper air inlet pipe 4. An upper air blower 3 is provided on the upper air guide pipe 2. A lower air guide pipe 11 is provided in the cooling box 1 below the conveyor mesh belt 10. The lower air guide pipe 11 is connected to a lower air inlet pipe 13. A lower air blower 12 is provided on the lower air guide pipe 11. The air blowing direction of the upper air blower 3 and the lower air blower 12 is towards the conveyor mesh belt 10. An exhaust pipe 15 is provided on the cooling box 1. By placing the material on the conveyor belt 10, both the upper air blower 3 and the lower water blower blow air onto the conveyor belt 10, achieving synchronous air cooling of the material from top to bottom, thus improving the cooling effect and efficiency.

[0024] Both the upper air guide duct 2 and the lower air guide duct 11 are rectangular. Multiple branch pipes 16 are evenly distributed along the long opposite sides of the upper air guide duct 2 and the lower air guide duct 11. The upper blower head 3 and the lower blower head 12 are evenly distributed on their respective branch pipes 16. Slider blocks 5 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the upper air guide duct 2 and the lower air guide duct 11. A bidirectional screw 7 connects to two corresponding upper and lower sliders 5. The two corresponding upper and lower sliders 5 are threaded into the forward and reverse thread sections of the bidirectional screw 7, respectively. The two ends of the bidirectional screw 7 are rotatably connected to the top and bottom walls of the cooling box 1 via bearings. The bidirectional screw 7 is connected to a drive. The synchronous forward and reverse rotation of the bidirectional screw 7 enables the upper air guide duct 2 and the lower air guide duct 11 to move towards or away from each other, thereby adjusting the distance between the upper blower head 3 and the lower blower head 12 and the conveyor belt 10. This adapts to the blowing and cooling of materials of different thicknesses or sizes, further improving the cooling effect. Both the upper air inlet pipe 4 and the lower air inlet pipe 13 are flexible hoses (such as retractable spring tubes), and the movement of the upper air guide pipe 2 and the lower air guide pipe 11 does not affect the air intake of the upper air inlet pipe 4 and the lower air inlet pipe 13.

[0025] The drive is a forward and reverse motor 24. The four forward and reverse motors 24 operate synchronously, causing the four bidirectional screws 7 to rotate synchronously.

[0026] During operation, the processed food 22 that needs to be cooled is placed on the conveyor belt 10 and enters the cooling box 1 through the inlet 6. The upper blower 3 and the lower blower 12 blow cold air onto the conveyor belt 10. The blowing force is reasonably adjusted according to the weight of the food to efficiently cool the food 22. The cooled food 22 is transported out from the outlet 14 of the cooling box 1 and falls onto the belt conveyor 17 through the transition plate 19 to be transported to the next process.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] like Figures 2-3 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the drive includes a sprocket and a transmission chain 9. The lower ends of the four bidirectional screws 7 extend outside the cooling box 1. One of the bidirectional screws 7 is connected to a rotating handle 8. Adjacent bidirectional screws 7 are connected by a cooperating sprocket and transmission chain 9. The synchronous rotation of the four bidirectional screws 7 is achieved by rotating the handle 8 in conjunction with the transmission of the sprocket and transmission chain 9.

[0029] Example 3

[0030] like Figures 4-5As shown, the embodiment differs from example 1 in that the discharge end of the conveyor is provided with an auxiliary discharging assembly, which includes a scraping plate 18, the scraping plate 18 being arranged obliquely, the upper end of the scraping plate 18 being in contact with the conveying surface of the conveying mesh belt 10, and the scraping plate 18 being connected with the rack through a fixing rod 23. The material adhering to the conveying mesh belt 10 can be scraped up by the scraping plate 18, so as to avoid the adhesion of the material.

[0031] The lower end of the scraping plate 18 is matched with a belt conveyor 17.

[0032] A transition plate 19 is arranged between the lower end of the scraping plate 18 and the belt conveyor 17, the upper part of the transition plate 19 being connected with the rack through a connecting rod 21, one end of the connecting rod 21 being fixedly connected with the rack, the other end of the connecting rod 21 being hingedly connected with the transition plate 19, the lower part of the transition plate 19 being connected with an extension rod 20, the fixed end of the extension rod 20 being hingedly connected with the rack, and the extension end of the extension rod 20 being hingedly connected with the transition plate 19. The material scraped up by the scraping plate 18 falls on the belt of the belt conveyor 17 through the transition plate 19, and with the accumulation of the material, the extension rod 20 adjusts the inclination angle of the transition plate 19 through extension and retraction, so as to make the material transitioned by the transition plate 19 continuously stacked together, and improve the neatness of the material stacking.

[0033] The extension rod 20 is an electric push rod or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0034] The forward and reverse motor, the electric push rod, the mesh belt conveyor, the belt conveyor and the like in the above examples are all prior art, and the present application does not improve them, but only uses their existing functions; the specific structure and principle thereof can be referred to the product instruction or the prior art data, which are all prior art.

[0035] The above has described the embodiments of the present application, and the above description is exemplary, is not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and changes are obvious to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement and the like made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
