Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Dendrobium processing technology, and in particular to a Dendrobium medicinal material drying device. Background Technology

[0002] Dendrobium is a traditional Chinese medicine. After harvesting fresh Dendrobium, it needs to be processed, including drying. It can only be stored in a warehouse after it has been dried, otherwise it will mold and spoil.

[0003] Traditionally, Dendrobium orchids are spread out on wooden boards and sun-dried. However, this method is highly dependent on the weather and cannot guarantee drying efficiency. If there are consecutive rainy days or insufficient sunlight, the Dendrobium orchids will not dry in time, and the drying quality will not be guaranteed, resulting in economic losses. To ensure the drying efficiency of Dendrobium orchids, existing technologies have designed Dendrobium orchid drying devices. These devices typically spread the Dendrobium orchids flat and then dry them with hot air. Because the Dendrobium orchids do not move during the drying process, the internal drying is relatively slow, affecting the overall drying efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a Dendrobium officinale drying device to solve the problem that existing Dendrobium officinale drying devices usually lay the Dendrobium officinale flat and then dry it with hot air. Since the Dendrobium officinale does not move during the drying process, the internal Dendrobium officinale dries relatively slowly, which affects the drying efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a drying device for Dendrobium officinale medicinal materials, including a support frame with a housing mounted on it, and further comprising: a wire mesh frame, a supporting mesh, a first cylinder, two second cylinders, and a drying section, wherein:

[0006] The wire frame is disposed inside the box;

[0007] The support net is a flexible support net, the length of which is greater than the length of the mesh frame, and the two ends of the support net are respectively hinged to the two ends inside the mesh frame.

[0008] A crossbeam is provided between the two supports. The first cylinder and two second cylinders are all mounted on the crossbeam. The telescopic end of the first cylinder is located in the middle of the bottom surface of the support net. The two second cylinders are respectively located on both sides of the first cylinder, and the telescopic ends of the two second cylinders are located on the bottom surface of the support net.

[0009] The drying section is located inside the chamber and is used to provide the heat required for drying.

[0010] The support net is used to hold the Dendrobium orchids. During operation, the first cylinder and the two second cylinders extend and retract alternately.

[0011] Optionally, the drying section includes two sets of symmetrically arranged drying units. Each drying unit includes multiple heating lamps disposed on one side of the mesh frame. A fan is provided on one side of each heating lamp, and the airflow generated by the fan blows into the interior of the mesh frame.

[0012] Optionally, the inner bottom of the wire frame is provided with a plurality of adhesive strips for absorbing dust.

[0013] Optionally, the device further includes a sterilization section disposed at the top inner part of the box for sterilizing and disinfecting the Dendrobium.

[0014] Optionally, the sterilization unit includes a mounting bracket disposed at the top of the chamber, on which multiple ultraviolet lamps are mounted.

[0015] When using this device to dry Dendrobium, the Dendrobium is placed on a support net. The drying unit works to provide the heat required for drying. Then, the first cylinder and two second cylinders are controlled to extend and contract alternately, which causes the support net to vibrate in a wave-like manner. This movement causes the Dendrobium on the support net to tumble, thus turning the Dendrobium inside out and improving the drying efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, a drying device for Dendrobium officinale medicinal materials includes a support frame 1, on which a box 2 is mounted, and further includes: a wire mesh frame 3, a supporting mesh 4, a first cylinder 5, two second cylinders 6, and a drying section, wherein:

[0024] The wire frame 3 is disposed inside the housing 2;

[0025] The support net 4 is a flexible support net 4, the length of the support net 4 is greater than the length of the mesh frame 3, and the two ends of the support net 4 are respectively hinged to the two ends inside the mesh frame 3.

[0026] A crossbeam 8 is provided between the two supports 1. The first cylinder 5 and the two second cylinders 6 are all mounted on the crossbeam 8. The telescopic end of the first cylinder 5 is located in the middle of the bottom surface of the support net 4. The two second cylinders 6 are respectively located on both sides of the first cylinder 5, and the telescopic ends of the two second cylinders 6 are located on the bottom surface of the support net 4.

[0027] The drying section is located inside the housing 2 and is used to provide the heat required for drying;

[0028] The support net 4 is used to place the Dendrobium orchids. During operation, the first cylinder 5 and the two second cylinders 6 extend and retract alternately.

[0029] When using this device to dry Dendrobium, the Dendrobium is placed on the support net 4. The drying unit works to provide the heat required for drying and then controls the first cylinder 5 and the two second cylinders 6 to extend and contract alternately. This causes the support net 4 to vibrate in a wave-like manner, which in turn causes the Dendrobium on the support net 4 to tumble. This allows the Dendrobium inside to tumble out, thus improving the drying efficiency.

[0030] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the drying section includes two symmetrically arranged drying units. Each drying unit includes multiple heating lamps 9 disposed on one side of the mesh frame 3. A fan 10 is provided on one side of each heating lamp 9, and the airflow generated by the fan 10 blows towards the interior of the mesh frame 3. The multiple heating lamps 9 generate heat when they operate, and the airflow generated by the fan 10 carries the heat into the interior of the mesh frame 3 to dry the Dendrobium.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the inner bottom of the mesh frame 3 is provided with a plurality of adhesive papers 11, which are used to absorb dust. Dust may fall off the Dendrobium during the tumbling process; absorbing the dust with the adhesive papers 11 reduces the amount of dust that falls back onto the Dendrobium.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the device further includes a sterilization section disposed at the top inner interior of the housing 2 for sterilizing and disinfecting the Dendrobium. Optionally, the sterilization section includes a mounting frame 12 disposed at the top inner interior of the housing 2, on which multiple ultraviolet lamps 7 are mounted. The Dendrobium is sterilized and disinfected by irradiation with the ultraviolet lamps 7.

[0033] Those skilled in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely exemplary and is not intended to imply that the scope of the present invention (including the claims) is limited to these examples; within the framework of the present invention, the technical features of the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of the present invention as described above, which are not provided in the details for the sake of brevity.

[0034] This utility model is intended to cover all such substitutions, modifications, and variations that fall within the broad scope of the appended claims. Therefore, any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
