[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clear and complete, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some, not all, embodiments of this utility model, and are merely used to explain the embodiments of this utility model. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a pet food drying device for uniform baking, comprising: a feeder 3, which is installed on the main body 1 of the drying device; a tunnel oven 5 is provided on the side of the main body 1 of the drying device; a receiving plate 12 is provided inside the main body 1 of the drying device; a baffle 14 and a spring 16 are provided on the receiving plate 12; the spring 16 is connected to a fixing block 17; the fixing block 17 is located inside the main body 1 of the drying device; a motor 10 is provided inside the main body 1 of the drying device; a striking block 11 is connected to the drive shaft of the motor 10; and a contact block 13 is provided on the receiving plate 12.
[0023] In practical use, the tunnel oven 5 and the main body of the drying device 1 process the pet food. After being roasted multiple times in the machine, the product is evenly cooked, the Maillard reaction is fully performed, and the product has a better flavor.
[0024] Example 2
[0025] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to improve the use effect of the device, a drying device body 1 is provided. A feeder 3 is fixedly installed on the drying device body 1. A bucket elevator 4 is provided on the side of the feeder 3. The other end of the bucket elevator 4 is installed at the outlet of the tunnel oven 5. The shaped roasted grain is transported into the tunnel oven 5 for heating, and then transported into the feeder 3 by the bucket elevator 4.
[0026] The striking block 11 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft of the motor 10. The motor 10 is fixedly installed inside the main body 1 of the drying device. The main body 1 of the drying device is fixedly installed with a fan 6, a heating mechanism 7, an upper conveying mechanism 8, a receiving hopper 2, and a lower conveying mechanism 9. The lower conveying mechanism 9 is provided with a receiving plate 12. The baking grain is then conveyed to the receiving hopper 2 fixedly installed on the main body 1 of the drying device by the feeder 3, so that the baking grain falls onto the upper conveying mechanism 8 and is heated by the heating mechanism 7. The fan 6 is started to blow hot air onto the baking grain to dry it.
[0027] Example 3
[0028] Based on Example 2, in order to ensure that the roasted grain can be fully cooked, a contact block 13 is provided. The contact block 13 has a semi-circular columnar structure and is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the receiving plate 12. The receiving plate 12 has a square plate structure and several baffles 14 are fixedly connected to it. The baffles 14 have a square plate structure. The motor 10 is started to drive the striking block 11 to rotate. The longer end of the striking block 11 strikes the contact block 13, while the shorter end of the striking block 11 does not contact the contact block 13. The baffles 14 fixedly connected to the receiving plate 12 are used to block the roasted grain and prevent it from rolling directly down, thereby increasing the time that the roasted grain stays on the receiving plate 12 and improving the subsequent roasting effect.
[0029] The receiving plate 12 has a connecting rod 15 fixedly connected to it. The connecting rod 15 has a circular rod structure and can slide along the limiting hole 18. The connecting rod 15 passes through the limiting hole 18, which has a circular groove shape, and is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 19. The limiting plate 19 has a circular plate structure and its diameter is larger than that of the limiting hole 18. The connecting rod 15 is limited by the limiting plate 19, so that the receiving plate 12 and the connecting rod 15 can move along the limiting hole 18 opened on the fixing block 17, thereby extending the elastic spring 16.
[0030] A spring 16 is fixedly connected to the receiving plate 12. The other end of the spring 16 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 17. The fixing block 17 has a square plate structure and is fixedly connected to the inner side of the main body 1 of the drying device. When the shorter end of the striking block 11 is no longer in contact with the contact block 13, the spring 16 contracts. Before the spring 16 returns to its original state, it will vibrate, causing the connecting rod 15 to slide back and forth along the limiting hole 18, causing the receiving plate 12 to vibrate, causing the roasted grain on the receiving plate 12 to bounce up and flip over multiple times, so that the roasted grain is roasted evenly, the Maillard reaction is complete, and the product flavor is better. Finally, it moves to the lower transmission mechanism 9 and is transported out of the device.
[0031] Working principle: In actual use, the shaped roasted grain is conveyed to the tunnel oven 5 for heating, and then conveyed to the feeder 3 by the bucket elevator 4. The feeder 3 then conveys the roasted grain to the receiving hopper 2 fixedly installed on the main body 1 of the drying device, so that the roasted grain falls into the main body 1 of the drying device for processing. During the processing, when the roasted grain falls onto the receiving plate 12, the striking block 11 strikes the contact block 13, causing the receiving plate 12 to vibrate. With the help of the elastic spring 16, the receiving plate 12 vibrates continuously, causing the roasted grain on the receiving plate 12 to bounce up. The roasted grain is turned over multiple times, so that the roasted grain is baked evenly, improving the quality of the processed product and reducing the phenomenon of undercooked roasted grain.
[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
