Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically a high-efficiency food drying device. Background Technology
[0002] Air-dried foods have been a popular specialty food for centuries, enjoying widespread popularity due to their unique flavor, aroma, and taste. Air-drying not only allows for long-term storage and convenient transportation but also preserves the original flavor of the food.
[0003] According to patent authorization number CN 211290789 U, a food drying equipment and food processing system are disclosed. In this application, the spacing between the hooks is fixed, which causes large-volume meat to stick together or even not hang at all if it is hung on adjacent hooks, resulting in an unsatisfactory drying effect.

[0021] 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.
[0022] Example
[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of this utility model proposes a high-efficiency food drying device, including a drying box 1, a support foot 3 installed at the bottom of the drying box 1, fans 4 installed on both sides of the drying box 1, a rotating shaft 6 rotatably connected inside the drying box 1, a drive motor 5 installed at the upper end of the drying box 1, the output shaft of the drive motor 5 connected to the rotating shaft 6, multiple sets of fixing plates 7 installed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 6, an adjustment component 8 provided on the rotating shaft 6, and a box door 2 hinged to the drying box 1; meat or other food is hung on the first hook 86 and the second hook 87, the drive motor 5 drives the rotating shaft 6 to rotate, and the fans 4 on both sides are used for air drying, which speeds up the air drying effect; the setting of the adjustment component 8 makes it easy to adjust the distance between the first hook 86 and the second hook 87, so that the hanging range can be adjusted according to the size of the food to be dried, improving flexibility and avoiding the problem of food piling up together, which leads to unsatisfactory air drying effect;
[0024] The adjusting assembly 8 includes a connecting rod 82 rotatably connected within the rotating shaft 6. A micro motor 81 is installed inside the connecting rod 82, and the output shaft of the micro motor 81 is connected to the connecting rod 82. Multiple sets of active bevel gears 83 are installed on the outer surface of the connecting rod 82. Two guide rods 84 are installed inside the fixing plate 7, and sliders 85 are slidably connected to both guide rods 84. A first hook 86 is installed at the bottom of each slider 85. A second hook 87 is bolted to the center of the bottom end of the fixing plate 7. A bidirectional screw 88 is rotatably connected inside the fixing plate 7 and threadedly connected to the slider 85. A driven bevel gear 89 is installed at one end of the bidirectional screw 88. The micro motor 81 drives the connecting rod 82 to rotate, which in turn drives the active bevel gear 83 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven bevel gear 89 to rotate, which in turn drives the bidirectional screw 88 to rotate, causing the slider 85 to slide on the guide rod 84. This adjusts the distance between the first hook 86 and the second hook 87, improving flexibility and preventing food from sticking together and affecting the drying effect.
