Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nut drying machine technology, and in particular to a nut drying machine. Background Technology

[0002] With increasing health awareness, the market demand for nuts, as a nutritious snack, continues to grow. Globally, the planting area of ​​various nuts is expanding, and production is increasing year by year. Domestically, my country is a major nut consumer and is actively developing its local nut planting industry. Production of nuts such as walnuts, chestnuts, and almonds has significantly increased. The storage and sale of nuts have strict requirements regarding their moisture content. Appropriate moisture content ensures the nuts are crisp, extends shelf life, and prevents mold. Traditional natural sun-drying methods are limited by weather and site factors, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale nut production and unable to precisely control the moisture content, which can easily lead to spoilage. With inconsistent quality, efficient and precise nut drying equipment has become a crucial link in ensuring the healthy development of the nut industry. Meanwhile, in an increasingly competitive nut market, companies must guarantee nut quality, reduce production costs, and improve production efficiency to increase market share. High-quality nut dryers can produce nut products with stable quality and good taste, meeting consumer demand for high-quality nuts. Furthermore, efficient drying equipment can shorten drying time, increase output per unit time, reduce labor costs and energy consumption, and improve the economic benefits of enterprises. Therefore, companies are increasing their investment in the research and development of nut dryers, driving continuous equipment upgrades.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN218737105U, which discloses a nut dryer. The dryer includes a body with a mounting plate on its bottom surface and a heating plate on its inner wall. A protective shell is located on the side of the heating plate away from the body, connected to the inner wall of the body. A drum is located inside the body, with a discharge cylinder at its lower end. A valve is located inside the discharge cylinder. A rotating shaft is connected to the middle of the drum, with its upper end passing through the top surface of the body and housing a first motor. A suction pump is located on one side of the first motor and is connected to the body. A feeding mechanism is located on the other side of the first motor, with its upper end connected to the body and its lower end connected to the mounting plate. A blower is located between the feeding mechanism and the body, with its output end connected to the lower end of the body. Rollers are located at the four corners of the bottom surface of the mounting plate. This invention requires manual operation. While the process is less intensive and can remove impurities mixed in with or generated during the drying process, thus improving efficiency, the above-mentioned nut processing mode separates the washing and drying steps. After harvesting, the nuts are first washed in a dedicated washing area, usually by water washing or simple spray washing. After washing, the nuts need to be naturally sun-dried or preliminarily drained before being transferred to a dryer for drying. This separate operation process is cumbersome, requiring multiple handling of the nuts, increasing the risk of nut damage. Moreover, during the drying process, the nuts may breed microorganisms due to prolonged surface moisture retention, affecting nut quality. In addition, the purchase and maintenance costs of separate equipment are high, and it occupies a large amount of space, which is particularly significant for small nut processing enterprises.
