Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Dendrobium technology, specifically to a drying device for Dendrobium. Background Technology

[0002] Dendrobium orchids thrive in warm, humid, and semi-shaded environments, with the best growth conditions found in subtropical deep forests where annual rainfall exceeds 1000 mm, air humidity is greater than 80%, and the average January temperature is above 8℃. They are not particularly demanding in terms of soil fertility, and in the wild, they often grow on loose, thick bark or tree trunks, sometimes even in rock crevices. Huoshan Dendrobium, produced in Huoshan County, Anhui Province, is considered the finest among Dendrobium orchids. However, its demanding growing environment results in a scarcity of produce, and only a few established brands like Fulimen Dendrobium officinale offer genuine Huoshan Dendrobium on the market.

[0003] However, existing dendrobium drying equipment has low drying efficiency and does not have the function of separating dust and impurities inside the dendrobium.

[0004] The prior art proposes a Chinese patent with publication number CN107246773A to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. The technical solution disclosed in this patent document is as follows: A drying device for processing Dendrobium officinale includes a hopper, a support plate, a placement plate, a motor, and an air outlet. The lower end of the hopper is connected to a chute, and the right end of the chute is located inside the left end of the drum. The lower end of the support plate is provided with a support leg, and the upper ends of both ends of the support plate are respectively connected to the drum through gears and rotating bearings. The placement plate is located below the drum, and the outer wall of the drum is provided with a mesh. The motor is located to the right of the gear, and the air outlet is located on the rear side of the drum and is sealed to a fan. This drying device for Dendrobium processing has a mesh screen on the drum to filter out smaller Dendrobium and impurities, which helps improve the quality of Dendrobium. A placement plate is set below the drum to facilitate the collection of smaller Dendrobium. An air outlet is set at the rear of the drum to dry the Dendrobium inside the drum, which helps improve the drying efficiency of the drying device for Dendrobium processing.

[0005] Although the aforementioned patent can help improve the drying efficiency of the drying device for Dendrobium processing, it can also lead to uncontrollable drying temperature and inability to speed up the drying time, which in turn causes the drying progress to be delayed and the quality of Dendrobium to decline.

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying device for Dendrobium to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A drying device for Dendrobium includes a shell, support legs, an air outlet screen, a top cover, a feed inlet, a drive mechanism, a wind power mechanism, a heating element, a draining mechanism, a conveying component, and a rotating mechanism.

The top of the shell is movably installed to the top cover, and the top of the top cover is fixedly installed to the feed inlet. A drive mechanism is located on the side of the shell away from the air outlet screen, which drives the wind power mechanism to generate airflow. The wind power mechanism is also located on the side of the shell away from the air outlet screen, and generates airflow. The airflow is blown onto the Dendrobium to dry it. A heating element is provided on one side of the inner wall of the shell. The heating element generates heat and blows hot air onto the Dendrobium through a wind mechanism.

A rotating mechanism is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the shell. The rotating mechanism can drive the conveying component to rotate to achieve the conveying effect.

[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that the driving mechanism includes a first support rod, a protective cover, and a first motor. The first support rod is threadedly connected to the side of the housing away from the air outlet. The end of the first support rod away from the housing is fixedly installed with the protective cover. The inner wall of the protective cover is fixedly installed with the first motor.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the combined use of the first support rod and the protective cover can provide good support for the first motor and ensure its stable use.

[0013] A further improvement of the present invention is that the heating component includes a heating tube and a bracket, the bracket is fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the housing, the heating tube is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bracket, and the heating tube is located on the side of the fan blade away from the second support rod.

[0014] Using the above technical solution, the heating element and the bracket work together to generate heat and blow the heated air toward the Dendrobium through the fan blades.

The third support rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the housing, the ventilation net is fixedly installed at the top of the third support rod, and one side of the ventilation net is fixedly installed with the discharge port.

[0018] Using the above technical solution, the combined use of the driven shaft and the spiral blade can realize the conveying of Dendrobium through the drive of the rotating mechanism.

After drying is completed, the spiral blade reverses to discharge Dendrobium downward.

[0031] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:

[0032] Example 1

[0033] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a drying device for Dendrobium, including a shell 1, support legs 2, an air outlet 3, an upper cover 4, a feed inlet 5, a drive mechanism 6, a wind power mechanism 7, a heating element 8, a draining mechanism 9, a conveying component 10, and a rotating mechanism 11. The support legs 2 are fixedly installed around the shell 1, and one side of the shell 1 is threadedly connected to the air outlet 3. The top of the shell 1 is movably installed to the upper cover 4, and the top of the upper cover 4 is fixedly installed to the feed inlet 5. The drive mechanism 6 is provided on the side of the shell 1 away from the air outlet 3. The drive mechanism 6 can drive the wind power mechanism 7 to generate wind. The drive mechanism 6 includes a first support rod 61, a protective cover 62, and a first motor 63. The first support rod 61 is threadedly connected to the side of the shell 1 away from the air outlet 3, and the end of the first support rod 61 away from the shell 1 is fixedly installed to the protective cover 62. The inner wall of the protective cover 62 is connected to the first motor 63. 3. Fixed installation: A wind mechanism 7 is provided on the side of the housing 1 away from the air outlet 3. The wind mechanism 7 can generate wind to blow towards the Dendrobium to dry it. The wind mechanism 7 includes a second support rod 71, a bearing 72 and a fan blade 73. The second support rod 71 is fixedly installed on the side of the housing 1 away from the air outlet 3. The bearing 72 is fixedly installed on the end of the second support rod 71 away from the housing 1. The output shaft of the first motor 63 is located on the inner wall of the bearing 72. The fan blade 73 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the first motor 63. A heating element 8 is provided on one side of the inner wall of the housing 1. The heating element 8 can generate heat and blow hot air towards the Dendrobium through the wind mechanism 7. The heating element 8 includes a heating tube 81 and a bracket 82. The bracket 82 is fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the housing 1. The heating tube 81 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bracket 82. The heating tube 81 is located on the side of the fan blade 73 away from the second support rod 71.

[0034] In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 6, the air-powered mechanism 7, the heating element 8, the draining mechanism 9, the conveying component 10, and the rotating mechanism 11 are arranged such that the drive mechanism 6 and the air-powered mechanism 7 work together to achieve the air-drying effect on the Dendrobium. The heating element 8 generates heat, which is then blown onto the Dendrobium by the air-powered mechanism 7. It also has a temperature-regulating function, thus increasing the drying speed of the Dendrobium. The draining mechanism 9 and the conveying component 10 work together to drain and convey the Dendrobium, ensuring uniform contact between the Dendrobium and the hot air. The rotating mechanism 11 drives the conveying component 10 to rotate, enabling it to convey the Dendrobium vertically. The combined use of support rod 61 and protective cover 62 provides good support for the first motor 63 and ensures its stable use. The protective cover 62 also has a certain protective capability to ensure that the first motor 63 is not bumped or damaged. The combined use of second support rod 71 and bearing 72 ensures support for fan blade 73 and reduces friction generated when the first motor 63 is driven. Fan blade 73 can generate wind to dry the Dendrobium. The combined use of heating tube 81 and bracket 82 can generate heat and blow the heated air to the Dendrobium through fan blade 73. At the same time, heating tube 81 also has a temperature adjustment function, which can adjust the heat generation according to the usage environment.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] like Figure 1-5 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, the draining mechanism 9 includes a ventilation net 91, a discharge port 92, and a third support rod 93. The third support rod 93 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 1, and the ventilation net 91 is fixedly installed at the top of the third support rod 93. One side of the ventilation net 91 is fixedly installed with the discharge port 92. The conveying assembly 10 includes a driven shaft 101 and a spiral blade 102. The driven shaft 101 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the ventilation net 91, and the spiral blade 102 is fixedly installed on the surface of the driven shaft 101. The spiral blade 102 is located inside the ventilation net 91, and the bottom end of the driven shaft 101 is provided with teeth. The rotating mechanism 11 includes a second motor 111, a shaft frame 112, and a gear 113. The second motor 111 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 1, the shaft frame 112 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 1, and the gear 113 is fixedly installed at the output end of the second motor 111. The gear 113 meshes with the driven shaft 101.

[0037] In this embodiment, the ventilation net 91 can drain the Dendrobium officinale to a certain extent and also serves to store it. The third support rod 93 makes the ventilation net 91 more stable during use. The discharge port 92 can discharge the dried Dendrobium officinale. The cooperation between the driven shaft 101 and the spiral blade 102 can realize the conveying of Dendrobium officinale through the drive of the rotating mechanism 11. When drying, the spiral blade 102 can continuously convey the Dendrobium officinale upward so that it can be evenly contacted by the hot air. After drying, the spiral blade 102 reverses to discharge the Dendrobium officinale downward. The cooperation between the second motor 111 and the gear 113 realizes the function of driving the driven shaft 101 to rotate. At the same time, the different diameters of the gear 113 and the driven shaft 101 prevent the rotation speed of the driven shaft 101 from being too fast. The shaft frame 112 can provide stable support when the gear 113 rotates.

[0038] The working principle of the drying device for Dendrobium will be explained in detail below.

[0039] like Figure 1-5 As shown, when using this utility model, first place the shell 1 in a stable position, then the user pours the Dendrobium into the ventilation mesh 91 through the feed inlet 5. The Dendrobium will then fall down through the gap between the ventilation mesh 91 and the spiral blade 102. When it falls to a certain extent, it will be restricted by the spiral blade 102 to prevent it from falling into the inner wall of the discharge outlet 92. After pouring, the user first connects the heating element 81 to the power supply to make it heat up, and then starts the first motor 63 to drive the fan blade 73 to rotate. When the fan blade 73 rotates, it will blow the heat from the surface of the heating element 81 toward the ventilation mesh 91. Then, the user starts the second motor 111 to drive the gear 113 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 113 will cause the driven shaft 101 meshing with it to rotate. When the driven shaft 101 rotates, it will cause the spiral blade 102 to continuously push the Dendrobium toward the ventilation mesh 91. The Dendrobium is continuously dried by the warm air blown by the fan blades 73 as it moves upward. Because the diameter of the gear 113 is small and the diameter of the driven shaft 101 is large, the rotation speed of the driven shaft 101 is very slow, causing the Dendrobium that has been conveyed to the top by the spiral blades 102 to fall back down. At the same time, the user can adjust the speed of the second motor 111 to further slow down the speed of the driven shaft 101, thereby achieving the most effective drying. The hot air blown by the fan blades 73 passes through the ventilation net 91 and is discharged through the air outlet net 3. After the Dendrobium is dried, the user starts the second motor 111 to reverse it, so that the spiral blades 102 continuously convey the Dendrobium downward. When the Dendrobium is conveyed downward, it flows out through the discharge port 92. At the same time, the user can adjust the heat of the heating tube 81 to determine the drying speed to ensure the quality of the Dendrobium.

[0040] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
