Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sweet potato starch production technology, specifically to a starch drying rack for sweet potato starch production. Background Technology

[0002] Sweet potato starch is a natural starch extracted from sweet potato tubers. It is a white powder with a fine texture. Its production process includes washing and crushing the sweet potatoes, filtering to remove fibrous impurities, and drying after sedimentation and water separation. As a common starch raw material, sweet potato starch has a wide range of uses in the food industry: it can be used to thicken sauces and increase the viscosity of broths; it is also a major raw material for making vermicelli and rice noodles, giving them a smooth texture; and it can be used in the processing of pastries and candies to improve product elasticity. In addition, it is also used industrially in papermaking, textiles, and medicine. Sweet potato starch is rich in carbohydrates, providing a quick energy boost, and also contains small amounts of dietary fiber, vitamin C, and minerals such as potassium and magnesium, making it a low-fat, low-cholesterol healthy food.

[0003] Significant technological defects exist in the drying process of sweet potato starch processing. Currently, the industry generally uses open-air sun-drying or traditional drying equipment, with the core problems concentrated in two points: First, the lack of dust pollution control. The open drying environment easily causes starch granules to absorb dust, insect excrement, and microorganisms from the air, seriously affecting the purity of the product. Second, the equipment cleaning design is unreasonable. Traditional drying racks use an integrated layer mesh structure, and starch granules embedded in the mesh are difficult to remove completely, forming sanitary dead corners that are prone to mold growth. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned problems, this utility model proposes a starch drying rack for sweet potato starch production, featuring a detachable dustproof net that can be freely installed and a separate drying net design for easy disassembly and cleaning.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution proposed by this utility model is: a starch drying rack for sweet potato starch production, comprising:

[0006] The base is a square frame with an integrally molded inner edge and several casters at the bottom.

[0007] The support frame includes a lower frame, an upper frame, and pillars. The lower frame is placed on the support edge, and a support strip is integrally formed on the inner side of the lower frame. The upper frame is located above the lower frame and is parallel to the lower frame. The pillars are fixedly located between the lower frame and the upper frame, and there are several pillars. The support frame can be stacked vertically.

[0008] A drying net is located inside the lower frame, and a drying frame is fixedly provided at its edge. The drying frame is detachably mounted on the support strip.

[0009] The dustproof mesh can be detachably installed on either side between the lower and upper frames.

[0010] Furthermore, the rollers are located at the four corners below the base.

[0011] Furthermore, the support pillars are equidistantly distributed along the upper wall of the lower frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper frame has L-shaped protrusions at the four corners of its upper wall, and the lower frame has L-shaped grooves at the four corners of its lower wall that match the L-shaped protrusions.

[0013] Furthermore, handles are symmetrically provided above the drying frame.

[0014] Furthermore, the drying frame is magnetically fixed to the support strip, and the upper wall of the lower frame and the lower wall of the upper frame are provided with slots near the outer side for inserting the upper and lower ends of the dustproof mesh, which is magnetically fixed in the slots.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are: the detachable dustproof net allows for free installation, enabling flexible adjustment of its position according to actual needs and wind direction. The magnetic fixation within the slot ensures both the stability of the dustproof net installation and facilitates quick installation, removal, and cleaning. During the sweet potato starch drying process, the dustproof net effectively blocks dust and other impurities from entering, ensuring the cleanliness and quality of the starch and improving product quality.

[0016] The drying frame along the edge of the drying mesh is detachable and magnetically secured to the support strip, greatly facilitating the disassembly and installation of the drying mesh by operators. After a period of use, starch and other impurities inevitably accumulate on the drying mesh. At this time, it can be easily removed for deep cleaning, keeping the drying mesh clean and ensuring that the drying effect is not affected in the next drying cycle. Simultaneously, the magnetic securing method saves manpower and time, improves operational convenience and work efficiency, and makes the entire starch drying process more efficient and smooth.

[0022] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Combined with appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 A starch drying rack for sweet potato starch production includes: a base 1, which is a square frame with an integrally formed support edge on the inner side and several rollers 2 below it. The rollers 2 are located at the four corners below the base 1, which can maintain stable support and balance when the drying rack is moved, and prevent the drying rack from tilting or shaking due to improper roller position, so as to facilitate the operator to move the drying rack to a suitable position.

[0024] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 3 The support frame includes a lower frame 3, an upper frame 4, and support columns 5. The lower frame 3 is placed on the support edge, and a support strip 6 is integrally formed on the inner side of the lower frame 3. The upper frame 4 is located above the lower frame 3 and is parallel to the lower frame 3. The support columns 5 are fixedly located between the lower frame 3 and the upper frame 4, and there are several of them. The support columns 5 are evenly distributed along the upper wall of the lower frame 3, which can make the upper frame 4 obtain uniform support force, ensure the stability of the entire support frame structure, prevent damage caused by excessive local stress due to uneven distribution of support columns, and facilitate multi-layer stacking.

[0025] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 The support frame can be stacked vertically. The upper frame 4 has L-shaped protrusions 10 at the four corners of its upper wall, and the lower frame 3 has L-shaped grooves at the four corners of its lower wall that match the L-shaped protrusions 10. When the support frame is stacked vertically, it can play a role in precise positioning and stable connection, preventing the support frame from shifting after stacking and enhancing the overall stability of the drying rack when multiple layers are stacked.

[0026] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 A drying mesh 7 is located inside the lower frame 3, with a drying frame 8 fixedly attached to its edge. The drying frame 8 is detachably mounted on the support strip 6. Handles 11 are symmetrically located above the drying frame 8, facilitating the removal or installation of the drying mesh 7 from the support strip 6 inside the lower frame 3 by operators, improving operational convenience and saving manpower and time. The drying frame 8 and the support strip 6 are magnetically secured, allowing for quick removal and installation of the drying mesh 7, and facilitating cleaning and replacement of the drying mesh.

[0027] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 4The dustproof mesh 9 is detachably installed on either side between the lower frame 3 and the upper frame 4. The upper wall of the lower frame 3 and the lower wall of the upper frame 4 are provided with slots 12 near the outer side for inserting the upper and lower ends of the dustproof mesh 9. The dustproof mesh 9 is magnetically fixed in the slots 12, which facilitates the installation, removal and cleaning of the dustproof mesh 9, as well as the adjustment of the installation position according to the wind direction to achieve a good dustproof effect.

[0028] The specific implementation of this utility model is as follows: First, use the rollers 2 at the four corners below the base 1 to move the drying rack to a suitable position. It can be placed directly in the open air environment for natural air drying, or it can be placed in a drying box for drying. The rollers 2 can provide stable support and prevent the drying rack from tilting and shaking.

[0029] Next, place the sweet potato starch that needs to be dried on the drying net 7. The drying frame 8 at the edge of the drying net 7 is detachably installed on the support strip 6 located inside the lower frame 3 and fixed by magnetic attraction. During operation, hold the handles 11 symmetrically arranged above the drying frame 8 to easily complete the installation.

[0030] If a large amount of sweet potato starch needs to be dried at the same time, multiple support frames can be stacked. Align the L-shaped grooves at the four corners of the lower frame 3 of the upper support frame with the L-shaped protrusions 10 at the four corners of the upper frame 4 of the lower support frame, and place them down after precise positioning to ensure a stable connection between the two and prevent displacement after stacking.

[0031] If natural air drying is chosen, the dustproof mesh 9 can be installed on the windward side between the lower frame 3 and the upper frame 4 during the drying process, depending on the wind direction and actual needs. Insert the upper and lower ends of the dustproof mesh 9 into the slots 12 near the outer side of the upper wall of the lower frame 3 and the lower wall of the upper frame 4, respectively, and secure them magnetically for effective dust prevention.

[0032] After drying is complete, hold handle 11 and remove the drying net 7 from the support strip 6. Remove the dried sweet potato starch and clean any remaining starch or other impurities from the drying net for future use. If the dustproof mesh 9 gets dusty, it can also be easily removed from the slot 12 for cleaning.
