Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mango ripening, and in particular to a mango ripening cooling fan. Background Technology

[0002] Mango ripening refers to the process of using specific methods to bring unripe mangoes to a suitable state for consumption or sale. Natural ripening of mangoes takes a long time, and artificial ripening is often necessary to meet market demand and improve profitability. The principle is based on the inherent characteristics of mangoes: they release ethylene gas when ripe. This can be utilized by placing mangoes in a high-temperature, high-humidity, and well-ventilated environment to accelerate ethylene secretion.

[0003] Common ripening methods include mixed fruit ripening, which utilizes the ethylene released by apples and bananas to ripen mangoes; high-temperature ripening, which involves placing mangoes in a warm place; and creating a closed microenvironment using rice, cardboard boxes, etc., to help mangoes ripen quickly and evenly, improving their taste and quality. However, current ripening devices have the following drawbacks: Poor space adaptability: Most mango ripening devices have fixed internal structures, making it difficult to flexibly adjust tray spacing and angles. This makes them unsuitable for mangoes of different sizes and various fruits, resulting in insufficient space utilization, limited versatility, and an inability to meet diverse ripening needs. Insufficient functional integration and resource utilization: Some devices can only achieve a single ripening function, lacking coordinated operation of heating and humidification, and do not consider water recycling, resulting in resource waste, increased costs, and difficulty in efficiently and environmentally completing the ripening task.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the existing problems of poor spatial adaptability and insufficient functional integration and resource utilization, a mango ripening fan is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a mango ripening fan includes a housing 2. A cover 1 is hinged to the front of the housing 2. A water tank 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the housing 2 to store humidifying water. A vertical pipe 9 is fixedly connected between the top of the water tank 8 and the inner wall of the housing 2. A net 10 is connected inside the vertical pipe 9 to hold mangoes. An air inlet pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the right side of the housing 2. A cooling fan 5 is installed inside the air inlet pipe 6 to deliver cool air into the housing 2 through the air inlet pipe 6, thereby cooling the mangoes. Figures 2-4As shown, a round rod 11 is fixedly connected inside the riser 9. A ring 12 is fitted on the outer wall of the round rod 11. A support block 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the ring 12. The support block 13 is inserted into the bottom side of the net 10. The net 10 is fixed to the riser 9 by inserting it into the support block 13. A sliding groove is opened on the outer wall of the riser 9. Multiple positioning grooves are opened on one side of the sliding groove. The support block 13 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove and is engaged inside the positioning groove. The support block 13 is fixed by engaging it into the positioning groove. A sealing ring 7 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the box cover 1. The sealing ring 7 improves the sealing effect between the box body 2 and the box cover 1. An LED light group 14 is installed on the top side inside the box body 2 to provide light for the mango.

[0033] Example 2:

[0034] As one of the optimized structural designs for Example 1, such as Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a heating rod 15 is installed inside the water tank 8 to heat the water, turning it into steam. The rear side of the water tank 8 and the top side of the box 2 are connected by a pipe 4, which transports the steam into the box 2 to provide a warming effect for the mangoes. A cool fan 5 blows out cool air to liquefy the steam into water to humidify the mangoes. A valve 3 is installed on the top side of the pipe 4 to control the opening and closing of the pipe 4, thereby controlling the humidification and heating process. A through hole is opened on the top side of the water tank 8, and a filter screen 16 is fixedly connected inside the through hole. An inclined surface is provided on the top side of the water tank 8 leading to the through hole, which allows the water to flow back into the water tank 8 for recycling. The filter screen 16 filters impurities in the water.

[0035] Working principle: First, the height of the support block 13 can be adjusted as needed to accommodate mangoes of different sizes or other fruits, making full use of the internal space of the box 2. When the height of the support block 13 needs to be adjusted, simply move the support block 13 upwards and rotate the ring 12 to rotate the support block 13 from the position of the positioning groove to the position of the sliding groove. Then slide the support block 13 to the positioning groove of the corresponding height. After that, rotate the ring 12 to rotate the support block 13 from the sliding groove into the positioning groove. Then lower the support block 13 so that the support block 13 engages in the positioning groove, thereby fixing the positioning groove. Finally, insert the net 10 onto the support block 13 to fix the net 10. After placing the mango or other fruit on the tray 10, close the lid 1. When the mango needs to be heated, simply turn on the heating rod 15 to heat the water in the water tank 8 into steam. This steam will be transported to the box 2 through the pipe 4, thereby heating the mango inside the box 2. When the mango needs to be humidified, simply turn on the cooling fan 5 to cool the steam and liquefy it into water, thereby humidifying the mango. This water will fall to the top side of the water tank 8 and then flow down the slope to the through hole, thus returning to the water tank 8 for recycling. The filter screen 16 in the through hole will filter out impurities in the water.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
