Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of raw material processing technology, and in particular to a drying device for removing moisture from raw materials used in the synthesis of sanshool. Background Technology

[0002] The process of removing moisture from the raw materials for capsaicin synthesis is mainly carried out during the preparation of the total extract of Sichuan pepper. Specifically, the raw materials (such as Sichuan pepper) are first extracted to obtain an extract. Some moisture may be introduced during this step. Subsequently, the extract can be effectively removed by vacuum concentration to obtain the total extract of Sichuan pepper. This total extract is an important raw material for the subsequent synthesis of capsaicin. Therefore, the key step in removing moisture from the raw materials is vacuum concentration, which ensures the smooth progress of the subsequent synthesis process and the purity of the final product.

[0003] Existing drying equipment typically heats the sanshool component using heating rods. However, current technology makes it difficult to turn over the raw materials inside the storage box, leading to material accumulation. This accumulation can cause uneven drying during the drying process, resulting in some materials being over-dried while others still contain a lot of moisture. This not only affects drying efficiency but may also affect the quality and yield of subsequent sanshool synthesis. If the accumulated raw materials are not turned over for a long time, they are also prone to deterioration or developing unpleasant odors, further affecting the quality of sanshool synthesis. In addition, the drying air direction of the drying equipment is relatively fixed, and it is impossible to adjust the angle of the drying air according to the different heights of the raw material boxes, affecting the drying effect of the sanshool raw materials.

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] Reference Figures 1-5 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a drying device for removing moisture from raw materials for the synthesis of sanshool, including a box body 1. The inner cavity of the box body 1 is provided with a mounting frame 2. The inner wall of the mounting frame 2 is slidably connected to a support plate 3 for placing the sanshool raw material. A baffle 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 3. A drive assembly 5 is installed inside the box body 1. A partition 6 is provided on one side of the box body 1. A frame 7 is fixed to one side of the partition 6. A guide plate 8 for adjusting the direction of the drying airflow is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame 7. A transmission assembly 9 for driving the guide plate 8 to rotate is provided on one side of the frame 7. An air duct 10 is installed on one side of the frame 7. An air box 11 is installed on the top of the air duct 10. A heating rod 12 for heating the inside of the air box 11 is installed inside the air box 11.

[0028] The support plate 3 is inserted into the mounting frame 2, which facilitates the disassembly and installation of the support plate 3. The support plate 3 can be used to place and support the sanshool raw material, which is convenient for drying the sanshool. The baffle 4 can prevent the raw material on the support plate 3 from falling off. The drive component 5 can be used to tap the support plate 3, causing the support plate 3 to move up and down, and tapping and turning the raw material on the support plate 3 to avoid the problem of raw material accumulation affecting the drying uniformity. The guide plate 8 can be used to adjust the blowing angle of the drying air, which is convenient for drying raw materials on the support plate 3 at different heights, improving the drying uniformity of sanshool. The transmission mechanism can drive the guide plate 8 to rotate. The heating rod 12 is existing technology, which uses electric heating wire to heat the raw material, which is convenient for subsequent drying.

[0029] The drive assembly 5 includes a first motor 51 installed on one side of the housing 1. The output end of the first motor 51 is fixedly connected to a drive rod 52. Multiple sets of drive blocks 53 are fixedly connected to the outside of the drive rod 52. A connecting block 54 that drives the raw material on the top of the support plate 3 to flip is fixedly connected to the outside of the drive block 53.

[0030] One end of the drive rod 52 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the box 1. The first motor 51 drives the drive rod 52 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive block 53 and the connecting block 54 to rotate, so that the connecting block 54 contacts the support plate 3, causing the support plate 3 to move up and down, turning over the sanshool raw material on the support plate 3, and avoiding the problem of raw material accumulation affecting the uniformity of drying.

[0031] The transmission assembly 9 includes a transmission rod 91 fixed to one side of the guide plate 8. A connecting gear 92 is fixedly connected to the outside of the transmission rod 91. A toothed plate 93 that drives the transmission rod 91 to rotate is meshed with the outside of the connecting gear 92.

[0032] Multiple sets of transmission rods 91 are provided. The outer side of the transmission rod 91 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame 7. The movement of the toothed plate 93 can drive the connecting gear 92 to rotate, thereby driving the transmission rod 91 and the guide plate 8 to rotate, thus achieving the effect of adjusting the guiding angle of the guide plate 8 and adjusting the blowing angle of the drying air.

[0033] Example 2:

[0034] This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.

[0035] Specifically, a connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, and a limiting rod 14 for limiting the mounting bracket 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 13. A spring 15 is provided on the outer side of the limiting rod 14.

[0036] The outer side of the limiting rod 14 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 2. The spring 15 is located above the mounting frame 2. The connecting block 54 contacts the support plate 3, causing the support plate 3 and the mounting frame 2 to move. This causes the mounting frame 2 to slide outside the limiting rod 14, causing the spring 15 to contract. By repeatedly moving the support plate 3 outside the limiting rod 14, the turning effect of the sanshool on the support plate 3 is improved.

[0037] Specifically, a temperature sensor 16 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the enclosure 1 to monitor the internal temperature of the enclosure 1.

[0038] Temperature sensor 16 is a current technology that achieves the effect of monitoring the internal temperature of enclosure 1.

[0039] Example 3:

[0040] This is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the first two embodiments.

[0041] Specifically, a support frame 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the partition 6, a second motor 18 is installed on the top of the support frame 17, and a threaded rod 19 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 18.

[0042] The bottom of the threaded rod 19 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 17.

[0043] Specifically, a limiting block 20 is fixedly connected to one side of the toothed plate 93, and a threaded block 21 that drives the toothed plate 93 to move is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 19.

[0044] The outer side of the limiting block 20 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 17, and one side of the threaded block 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the toothed plate 93. The threaded rod 19 is driven to rotate by the second motor 18, so that the threaded block 21 drives the toothed plate 93 to move, so that the limiting block 20 slides inside the support frame 17. The movement of the toothed plate 93 drives the connecting gear 92 and the transmission rod 91 to rotate.

[0045] Specifically, the top of the air box 11 is equipped with an air pump 22 for drying raw materials, and one end of the air pump 22 is equipped with a connecting pipe 23.

[0046] The air inlet of the air pump 22 is connected to the top of the air box 11 through a pipe, and the connecting pipe 23 is set at the air outlet of the air pump 22. One end of the connecting pipe 23 is connected to one side of the air duct 10.

[0047] A door 24 is provided on one side of the bellows 11, and a vent 25 is provided on the other side of the bellows 11.

[0048] In use, the support plate 3 can be used to place and support the sanshool raw material, facilitating the drying process. The heating rod 12 is activated to heat the air inside the airbox 11. The air pump 22 extracts the hot air from the airbox 11, which then enters the chamber 1 through the air duct 10, achieving the drying effect on the raw material inside the chamber 1. The second motor 18 drives the threaded rod 19 to rotate, causing the threaded block 21 to move the toothed plate 93, allowing the limiting block 20 to slide inside the support frame 17. The movement of the toothed plate 93 drives the connecting gear 92 and the transmission rod 91 to rotate, which in turn drives the transmission rod 91 and the guide plate 8 to rotate, thus achieving the drying effect on the guide plate. The effect of adjusting the guide angle of 8 is to adjust the blowing angle of the drying air, which facilitates the drying of raw materials on support plates 3 at different heights and improves the drying uniformity of sanshool. The first motor 51 drives the drive rod 52 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive block 53 and the connecting block 54 to rotate, so that the connecting block 54 contacts the support plate 3, and the mounting frame 2 slides outside the limit rod 14, causing the spring 15 to contract. The support plate 3 moves repeatedly outside the limit rod 14, which improves the turning effect of sanshool on the support plate 3, turns the sanshool raw material on the support plate 3, and avoids the problem of raw material accumulation affecting the drying uniformity.

[0049] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
