Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of food processing technology, and in particular relates to an automatic drying mechanism for a pellet pressing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Soft candy is a type of soft and elastic candy. In the industrial production of soft candy, casting machines are often used to cast it into shape, which can greatly increase the production efficiency of soft candy. The casting machine mainly processes the ingredients for making soft candy, so that the ingredients are mixed and reacted. Then, it is poured from the inside of the tank into the candy mold for cooling, thus completing the production of soft candy.

[0003] After cooling, the gummies need to be dried. During the drying process, the gummies will release oily gases. After continuous drying, the dryer will have high levels of oil and moisture inside, which will affect the drying effect. If the machine is stopped for cleaning, it is necessary to wait for the dryer to cool down, which is inconvenient and time-consuming to operate and not convenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0037] This disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0038] like Figure 1-10 As shown, an automatic drying mechanism for a shot press includes a drying drum 101 and a door 102. The drying drum 101 is made of a perforated plate and has an inlet and outlet. The side wall of the door 102 is connected to the side wall of the inlet and outlet by a rotating connection, which facilitates opening and closing and ensures the sealing of the drying drum 101. Connecting blocks 103 are provided at both ends of the drying drum 101. The connecting blocks 103 have connecting grooves, which are used to connect with the mounting frame so that an external motor can drive the drying drum 101 to rotate. A hanging rod 105 is provided inside the drying drum 101, and an absorbent cloth 115 is connected to the hanging rod 105. The absorbent cloth 115 swings inside the drying drum 101 as it rotates.

[0039] Furthermore, the drying drum 101 has an opening on its side wall, and a cover plate 104 is provided inside the opening. The hanging rod 105 is located on the cover plate 104, which makes the installation and maintenance of the hanging rod 105 and the absorbent cloth 115 more convenient.

[0040] The cover plate 104 is provided with an extension rod 106, the extension rod 106 is provided with a guide rail, and the inner wall of the opening is provided with a guide block 107, which is inserted into the guide rail. The guide rail and the guide block 107 guide the movement of the cover plate 104, preventing the cover plate 104 from being moved directly out of the drying barrel 101, and making it easy to replace the absorbent cloth 115.

[0041] Furthermore, the drying drum 101 is provided with two protrusions 108, which are located at both ends of the opening. The protrusions 108 are provided with fixing blocks 109. The protrusions 108 are provided with a first movable groove, and the fixing blocks 109 are located in the first movable groove. The fixing blocks 109 are provided with a first push rod 110. The side wall of the first movable groove is provided with a second movable groove for the first push rod 110 to move. The first push rod 110 is provided with a third movable groove, and a slider 118 is provided in the third movable groove. The inner wall of the second movable groove is provided with a sliding groove 111 for the slider 118 to move. The sliding groove 111 is provided with limiting grooves 112 at both ends. The slider 118 is provided with a second push rod 113 and a spring 114 at the bottom. The second push rod 113 passes through the first push rod 110, and the spring 114 abuts against the bottom surface of the third movable groove.

[0042] The cover plate 104 is fixed by using a fixing block 109 against it, preventing the cover plate 104 from being thrown out of the opening when the drying drum 101 rotates, thus ensuring the stability of the drying mechanism. When it is necessary to replace the absorbent cloth 115, the second push rod 113 is pushed towards the first push rod 110. The second push rod 113 drives the slider 118 to move. After the slider 118 moves out of the limiting groove 112, it pushes the first push rod 110 to move, so that the fixing block 109 is removed from the cover plate 104, so that the cover plate 104 can be opened directly to replace the absorbent cloth 115. The setting of the limiting groove 112 improves the fixing effect of the fixing block 109 on the cover plate 104, further improving the stability of the drying drum 101.

[0043] Furthermore, the absorbent cloth 115 is connected to the hanging rod 105 by Velcro. Two Velcro straps are respectively located at one end of the absorbent cloth 115 and near the end of the absorbent cloth 115, so that the absorbent cloth 115 is fixed by the two Velcro straps after wrapping around the hanging rod 105. This connection method is simple and quick, and facilitates the replacement and cleaning of the absorbent cloth 115.

[0044] Furthermore, the absorbent cloth 115 is provided with a first fixing hole, and the hanging rod 105 is provided with a second fixing hole. A fixing rod 116 is inserted into the first fixing hole. A fixing ring 117, which is made of rubber, is fitted onto the fixing rod 116. By using the fixing holes and the fixing rod 116, the absorbent cloth 115 is positioned and fixed, preventing the absorbent cloth 115 from moving around on the hanging rod 105 and ensuring that the absorbent cloth 115 is in an open state, so that the absorbent cloth 115 has a good water and oil absorption effect.

[0045] The above description is merely a selection of preferred embodiments of this disclosure and an explanation of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the utility model involved in the embodiments of this disclosure is not limited to the technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the above-described inventive concept. For example, technical solutions formed by substituting the above features with (but not limited to) technical features with similar functions disclosed in the embodiments of this disclosure.
