Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of honeysuckle drying technology, and in particular to a honeysuckle drying device for processing. Background Technology
[0002] Honeysuckle, also known as Lonicera japonica, is a common Chinese medicinal herb with various medicinal values and effects. It is a perennial, semi-evergreen twining shrub belonging to the Lonicera genus of the Caprifoliaceae family. The stem bark peels off in strips, and the young branches are dark reddish-brown, densely covered with yellowish-brown, spreading, stiff, rough hairs, glandular hairs, and short soft hairs; the lower part is often hairless. Honeysuckle contains pharmacologically active ingredients such as chlorogenic acid and luteolin glycosides, which have strong inhibitory effects on various pathogenic bacteria such as hemolytic streptococci and Staphylococcus aureus, as well as viruses causing upper respiratory tract infections. Drying honeysuckle is a crucial step in ensuring its quality; a well-ventilated, sunny, and clean location, such as a rooftop, balcony, or a dedicated drying yard, should be chosen. To avoid dust and impurities, a clean bamboo mat, reed mat, or plastic film can be laid on the ground. The sorted honeysuckle can be spread evenly on the drying equipment, with a thickness not exceeding 1 cm, to ensure that the honeysuckle is dried evenly and at a consistent speed. During the drying process, pay close attention to weather changes. If it rains or the weather is humid, the honeysuckle should be taken back in time and temporarily stored in a well-ventilated place indoors until the weather clears up before continuing to dry. Otherwise, the honeysuckle is prone to mold and spoilage.
[0003] In the existing technology, when honeysuckle needs to be dried, a thin film or other mat is first laid out, and then the honeysuckle is evenly spread on it. After the honeysuckle is dried, it is recycled and replaced with new honeysuckle to continue drying.
[0004] However, during the drying process, both spreading out and removing honeysuckle takes a considerable amount of time, resulting in uneven drying. Due to uneven accumulation or distribution, some honeysuckle may be over-dried while others are under-dried, affecting its quality and thus reducing the overall drying efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying device for honeysuckle processing, which solves the problem of low efficiency caused by the long time required to spread out honeysuckle during drying in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A drying device for processing honeysuckle includes a base, four support plates rotatably connected to the top of the base, a stabilizing mechanism between the tops of the four support plates, several insertion slots on the inner side of two support plates, a drying plate between two insertion slots at the same height, two extension plates rotatably connected to the outer side of the support plates, a limiting mechanism between the extension plates and the support plates, and an L-shaped pull-out slot on the side of the drying plate.
[0008] Preferably, the stabilizing mechanism includes a cover plate slidably connected to the top of the four support plates, and a U-shaped anti-tilt ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover plate, with the side of the support plate fitting against the inner side of the anti-tilt ring.
[0009] Preferably, the surface of the anti-tilt ring passes through the insertion rod, one end of the insertion rod passes through the surface of the adjacent support plate, and one end of the insertion rod is elastically connected to the surface of the anti-tilt ring through a compression spring.
[0010] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes two limiting rods rotatably connected to the surface of the support plate, and an L-shaped anti-moving block is fixedly connected to one end of the surface of the limiting rod.
[0011] Preferably, the surface of the support plate has two anti-movement grooves, and the surface of the limiting rod is threaded with a screw rod, which is located inside the adjacent anti-movement groove.
[0012] Preferably, the inner side of the support plate is fixedly connected with several anti-slip blocks, and the bottom of the drying plate is provided with anti-slip grooves.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] Before drying honeysuckle, it needs to be spread on a drying board. When drying is needed, the drying board is moved to the drying area, and then the four support boards are opened. The drying board is placed on the support boards for drying. After drying, the drying board is put back into the four support boards. This shortens the time for spreading the honeysuckle and the time for putting it in and taking it out, allowing the honeysuckle enough time to spread out during the actual drying time. This results in more even drying of the honeysuckle and improves the efficiency of honeysuckle drying. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0023] Reference Figure 1-5A honeysuckle drying device includes a base 1 with four support plates 2 rotatably connected to the top of the base 1. When honeysuckle needs to be dried, the base 1 can be moved to the drying area, and then the four support plates 2 can be rotated and unfolded. Before unfolding, the drying plates 5 need to be pulled out first, then the support plates 2 are rotated, and then the drying plates 5 are placed on top of the rotated support plates 2. This increases the drying area, and the drying plates 5 can be directly reset for easy recycling of the dried honeysuckle. A stabilizing mechanism 3 is provided between the tops of the four support plates 2. The support plate 2 is rotated, and then the stabilizing mechanism 3 restricts the four support plates 2, thus forming a container for loading the drying board 5 with the base 1. This container is then moved to remove the dried honeysuckle. Throughout this process, the stabilizing mechanism 3 ensures that the support plates 2 do not rotate, thus keeping the drying board 5 stable between the four support plates 2. Several insertion slots 4 are provided on the inner side of two of the support plates 2. The insertion slots 4 and both sides of the drying board 5 are L-shaped, allowing the drying board 5 to be pulled out from the side of the insertion slots 4 during use, facilitating its placement into the support. Inside the board 2, the insertion slots 4 conveniently restrain the drying board 5 between the four support boards 2, preventing the drying boards 5 from getting too close to each other. A drying board 5 is positioned between two insertion slots 4 at the same height. The drying board 5 is used to place honeysuckle, facilitating its drying. After drying, the honeysuckle is removed from the drying board 5, and new honeysuckle is placed on it to continue drying. This process can be done outside the drying area, reducing the time spent unfolding the honeysuckle during drying. Two extension plates 6 are rotatably connected to the outer side of the support board 2. The extension plates 6 increase the placement space of the drying board 5, thus... The drying board 5 can dry more honeysuckle, improving drying efficiency. A limiting mechanism 7 is provided between the extension board 6 and the support board 2. When the drying area is increased by extending the extension board 6, the position of the extension board 6 can be easily fixed by the limiting mechanism 7 to prevent the extension board 6 from rotating and causing the drying board 5 to become unstable. This allows the drying board 5 to be dried stably on the surface of the extension board 6. An L-shaped pull-out groove 10 is provided on the side of the drying board 5. When it is necessary to pull the drying board 5, force can be easily applied to the drying board 5 through the pull-out groove 10, so that the drying board 5 can be easily moved.
[0024] Furthermore, the stabilizing mechanism 3 includes a cover plate 301 slidably connected to the top of the four support plates 2. The bottom of the cover plate 301 is fixedly connected to a U-shaped anti-tilting ring 302. The side of the support plate 2 is in contact with the inner side of the anti-tilting ring 302. When it is necessary to restrict the four support plates 2, the four support plates 2 are rotated first. During the rotation, three support plates 2 are rotated first, and then the drying board 5 is placed between the three support plates 2. Then the last support plate 2 is rotated and closed. After that, the cover plate 301 is placed from top to bottom on top of the four support plates 2. At this time, the inner side of the anti-tilting ring 302 can be in contact with the outer side of the support plate 2, thereby restricting the position of the four support plates 2, thus conveniently restricting the position of the drying board 5. Then all the drying boards 5 located between the four support plates 2 are moved together to facilitate the replacement of honeysuckle on the drying board 5.
[0025] Furthermore, the surface of the anti-tilt ring 302 is fitted with the insertion rod 303, one end of which is fitted with the surface of the adjacent support plate 2. The other end of the insertion rod 303 is elastically connected to the surface of the anti-tilt ring 302 via a compression spring 304. When the anti-tilt ring 302 is needed to restrict the position of the support plate 2, the cover plate 301 can be pressed downwards. During the descent of the anti-tilt ring 302, the insertion rod 303 will enter a groove on the surface of the support plate 2, thereby fixing the position of the anti-tilt ring 302. During this process, the compression spring 304 prevents the insertion rod 303 from easily leaving the groove on the surface of the support plate 2, thus ensuring that the anti-tilt ring 302 stably restricts the support plate 2.
[0026] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism 7 includes two limiting rods 701 rotatably connected to the surface of the support plate 2. One end of the surface of the limiting rod 701 is fixedly connected to an L-shaped anti-movement block 702. When the extension plate 6 needs to be unfolded, the limiting rod 701 can be rotated first, and the anti-movement block 702 will disengage from the extension plate 6 and no longer restrict the extension plate 6. Then the extension plate 6 can be unfolded. After the extension plate 6 is unfolded, the limiting rod 701 can be rotated again, so that the limiting rod 701 can easily fit the extension plate 6, so that the extension plate 6 will no longer rotate. This allows the extension plate 6 to easily support the drying board 5, facilitating the drying of honeysuckle on the drying board 5.
[0027] Furthermore, two anti-movement grooves 703 are formed on the surface of the support plate 2, and a screw 704 is threadedly connected to the surface of the limiting rod 701. The screw 704 is located inside the adjacent anti-movement groove 703. When the extension plate 6 is restricted by rotating the limiting rod 701, the screw 704 will rotate after the limiting rod 701 rotates, so that the position of the limiting rod 701 is restricted, thereby enabling the limiting rod 701 to stably restrict the extension plate 6 and facilitate the use of the extension plate 6.
[0028] Furthermore, several anti-slip blocks 8 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the support plate 2, and an anti-slip groove 9 is provided at the bottom of the drying board 5. When the drying board 5 needs to be laid on the support plate 2, the anti-slip blocks 8 and the anti-slip groove 9 can ensure that the drying board 5 will not easily slide on the support plate 2, thereby ensuring the normal drying of the drying board 5.
[0029] In summary:
[0030] When honeysuckle needs to be dried, the support plate 2 and base 1 can be lifted and moved to the drying area. Then, the insertion rod 303 on the anti-tilt ring 302 is pulled outward, causing the insertion rod 303 to disengage from the groove on the side of the support plate 2. Then, the cover plate 301 is pulled upward, causing the cover plate 301 to drive the anti-tilt ring 302 to disengage from the four support plates 2. After that, one of the support plates 2 is rotated to expose the drying plate 5. Then, the drying plate 5 is pulled out from the insertion groove 4 through the pull-out groove 10. After all the drying plates 5 are removed, the remaining three... The support plate 2 is rotated and unfolded. Then, the screw 704 is rotated to disengage from the anti-movement groove 703. Next, the limiting rod 701 is rotated to release the restriction of the anti-movement block 702 on the extension plate 6. The extension plate 6 is then rotated to unfold and easily support the drying board 5. Then, the limiting rod 701 is rotated to fit against the extension plate 6, causing the screw 704 of the limiting rod 701 to move towards another anti-movement groove 703. Then, the screw 704 is rotated to enter the other anti-movement groove 703. Once the extension plate 6 is stabilized, the drying plate 5 is placed onto the support plate 2 and the extension plate 6 for use. During this process, the anti-slip block 8 can enter the anti-slip groove 9 to prevent the drying plate 5 from sliding and causing the honeysuckle to fall. After drying, the support plate 2, the extension plate 6, and the drying plate 5 are reset. The anti-tilting ring 302 is then moved from top to bottom to re-restrain the four support plates 2. During this process, the insertion rod 303 remains in the groove on the side of the support plate 2 due to the elastic force of the compression spring 304, so that the anti-tilting ring 302 stably restrains the support plate 2. Then, the base 1 is moved and replaced with new honeysuckle for drying. Through the above structure, when honeysuckle needs to be dried, it is convenient to bring the honeysuckle into and out of the drying area. During the drying process, the support plate 2 and the extension plate 6 protect the drying tray, preventing the honeysuckle from falling to the ground through the holes in the drying plate 5 and getting dirty. This makes the drying of honeysuckle convenient and reduces the time spent spreading out the honeysuckle during the drying process, ensuring efficient drying and material replacement.
