Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of garlic processing equipment, and specifically to a drying device for garlic processing. Background Technology

[0002] Garlic is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the genus Allium in the family Liliaceae. It is further divided into hard-leaf garlic and soft-leaf garlic, with the hard-leaf variety being the most common in China. It typically consists of numerous fleshy, clove-like bulbils arranged closely together, covered by several layers of white to purplish membranous bulb skin; the leaves are broadly linear to linear-lanceolate, and flat. Garlic requires drying equipment during processing to extend its shelf life or for further processing.

[0003] Most existing garlic drying devices use hot air to dry garlic. While hot air can quickly remove moisture from the surface of garlic, it cannot quickly evaporate the moisture inside the garlic, resulting in a long drying time. In addition, prolonged hot air drying can also damage the internal nutrients (such as allicin, volatile sulfur compounds, vitamins, etc.), affecting the flavor of the garlic. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying device for garlic processing, which solves the problem of excessively long drying time in traditional garlic drying devices.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] This utility model provides a drying device for garlic processing, including a drying oven with a door on the side; a hot air assembly including an air outlet disposed inside the drying oven; an ultrasonic transducer disposed on the inner wall of the bottom surface of the drying oven, and an ultrasonic generator disposed on the outer side of the drying oven, wherein the ultrasonic transducer is electrically connected to the ultrasonic generator.

[0007] Furthermore, the oven is equipped with several drawers inside, and each drawer has several evenly distributed ventilation holes.

[0008] Furthermore, the hot air assembly also includes a hot air blower, which is located at the top of the oven, and a hot air duct is connected between the hot air blower and the air outlet.

[0009] Furthermore, the oven is equipped with a circulating air assembly, which includes a first circulating fan, a second circulating fan, a third circulating fan, and a fourth circulating fan.

[0010] Furthermore, the first circulating fan is located on the lower left side of the oven, the second circulating fan is located on the right side of the bottom surface of the oven, the third circulating fan is located on the upper right side of the oven, and the fourth circulating fan is located on the left side of the top surface of the oven.

[0011] Furthermore, a temperature sensor is provided on the inner wall of the oven.

[0012] Furthermore, a steam valve is provided on the upper part of the oven.

[0013] Technical effects of this utility model:

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the garlic drying device of this utility model, by setting up an ultrasonic transducer and an ultrasonic generator, generates microbubbles inside the garlic under the action of ultrasonic waves, making it easier for water molecules to escape. Combined with a hot air blower, the drying time of garlic is shortened, effectively reducing the loss of nutrients in garlic. By setting up a circulating air component, the temperature distribution in the drying oven is more uniform, ensuring the consistency of garlic drying. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Example:

[0022] like Figure 1-3As shown in this embodiment, a garlic drying device includes a drying oven 1 with a door 2 on its side and a temperature sensor 11 on its inner wall. A steam valve 5 is located at the top of the oven 1 to discharge water vapor generated during the garlic drying process, thus reducing the internal air pressure of the oven 1. A hot air assembly includes an air outlet 7 located inside the oven 1 and a hot air blower 3 located at the top of the oven 1. A hot air pipe 4 connects the hot air blower 3 and the air outlet 7. During hot air drying, the hot air blower 3 is activated, and hot air is output from the blower 3. The garlic passes through hot air duct 4 and air outlet 7, and is then output from air outlet 7 into the oven 1. The temperature inside the oven 1 rises rapidly, and the garlic is dried under the combined effects of high temperature and air drying. An ultrasonic transducer 10 is installed on the inner wall of the bottom surface of the oven 1, and an ultrasonic generator 6 is installed on the outer side of the oven 1. The ultrasonic transducer 10 and the ultrasonic generator 6 are electrically connected to each other. The ultrasonic transducer 10 and the ultrasonic generator 6 are used to emit ultrasonic waves. Under the action of the ultrasonic waves, tiny bubbles are generated inside the garlic, making it easier for water molecules to escape. Combined with the hot air blower 3, the drying time of the garlic is shortened, effectively reducing the loss of nutrients in the garlic.

[0023] The oven 1 has several drawers 8 inside, and each drawer 8 has several evenly distributed ventilation holes 9. The drawers 8 are used to hold garlic.

[0024] The oven 1 is equipped with a circulating air assembly, which includes a first circulating fan 12, a second circulating fan 13, a third circulating fan 14, and a fourth circulating fan 15. The first circulating fan 12 is located on the lower left side of the oven 1, the second circulating fan 13 is located on the right side of the bottom surface of the oven 1, the third circulating fan 14 is located on the upper right side of the oven 1, and the fourth circulating fan 15 is located on the left side of the top surface of the oven 1. By setting up the circulating air assembly, the temperature distribution inside the oven 1 is more uniform, ensuring the consistency of garlic drying.

[0025] Working principle

[0026] When drying garlic, open the oven door 2, pull out the drawer 8, spread the garlic evenly in the drawer 8, push the drawer 8 into the oven 1, close the oven door 2, and start the hot air blower 3. The hot air is output from the hot air blower 3, passes through the hot air pipe 4 and the air outlet 7 in sequence, and is output from the air outlet 7 into the oven 1. The temperature inside the oven 1 rises rapidly. The circulating air assembly is activated to promote uniform temperature distribution inside the oven 1. Under the action of high temperature and air drying, the surface of the garlic is dried. Then, the ultrasonic transducer 10 and ultrasonic generator 6 are activated. Under the action of ultrasonic waves, tiny bubbles are generated inside the garlic, and water molecules escape to the surface of the garlic. With the help of the hot air blower 3, the garlic is dried quickly.

[0027] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model.
