Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of preserved flower production technology, specifically, it relates to a multi-layer preserved flower drying rack. Background Technology

[0002] Preserved flowers, prized for their ability to maintain their shape and color for an extended period, are highly sought after by consumers. Air drying is a crucial step in the production process. Traditional natural air drying, a common method, relies on natural temperature, humidity, and airflow to dry the flowers. However, this method has significant drawbacks. Firstly, natural air drying is extremely inefficient. The temperature and humidity of the natural environment fluctuate constantly, making it difficult to maintain optimal conditions for drying. The drying process often takes weeks or even months, significantly extending the production cycle and reducing efficiency. Secondly, natural air drying struggles to ensure uniformity. In the natural environment, the temperature, humidity, and airflow affecting different parts of the flower vary, leading to some parts becoming over-dried, wilting, and deformed, while others remain under-dried, prone to mold and spoilage, severely impacting the quality of the preserved flower. Therefore, current methods for drying preserved flowers suffer from low efficiency and uneven drying. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a multi-layer preserved flower drying rack, which can solve the problems of low efficiency and uneven drying in traditional drying methods.

[0004] This utility model is implemented as follows:

[0005] This utility model provides a multi-layer preserved flower drying rack, which includes a drying rack with multiple drying chambers. A back plate is provided on one side of each drying chamber, and a front opening plate is movably connected to the other side of each drying chamber. A rotating and adjustable heat drying mechanism is provided inside each drying chamber, and multiple sets of fixing clips are provided at the top of each drying chamber.

[0006] The technical advantages of this multi-layer preserved flower drying rack are as follows: The rack creates multiple independent drying chambers, allowing for the simultaneous drying of different types and conditions of preserved flowers, thus improving the rack's efficiency. A back panel supports and seals the rear of the drying chamber, ensuring stable airflow and preventing heat loss. A movable front opening panel facilitates placing the flowers into the drying chamber and removing them after drying, while allowing for continuous monitoring of the flowers' condition. A locking clip secures the flower stems. A rotatable heating mechanism enables multi-angle airflow, ensuring all parts of the flower are fully exposed to hot air, further improving drying uniformity and preventing insufficient or excessive drying in certain areas from affecting flower quality.

[0007] Based on the above technical solution, the multi-layer preserved flower drying rack of this utility model can be further improved as follows:

[0008] The hot drying mechanism includes multiple sets of fans and a main air duct, and the fans are fixedly installed on the side of the drying rack via a receiving seat.

[0009] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: the fan is fixedly installed on the side end of the drying rack through the receiving seat, which serves to support and carry the fan.

[0010] Furthermore, one end of the main air duct is fixedly connected to the output port of the fan, and the other end extends through into the interior of the drying chamber.

[0011] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are: by setting up multiple sets of fans and main air ducts to correspond to the drying rooms on each floor, a stable airflow is continuously provided to the drying rooms.

[0012] Furthermore, the main air duct has multiple sets of air outlets, and the positions and numbers of the air outlets correspond to those of the fixing clips.

[0013] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: through the corresponding position and number of air outlets and fixing clips, hot air can be blown towards the flowers suspended and fixed on the fixing clips, and the flowers can be dried in a targeted manner, improving the uniformity and efficiency of drying, and solving the problems of low efficiency and uneven drying in traditional natural air drying.

[0014] Furthermore, a stepper motor is fixedly installed at the other end of the inner wall of the drying chamber. The output shaft of the stepper motor is fixedly connected to the adjusting air duct. The adjusting air duct is sleeved outside the main air duct, and its end is movably connected to the main air duct.

[0015] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: By setting a stepper motor and adjusting the air duct, the rotation angle of the adjusting air duct can be precisely controlled. By changing the direction of the airflow when the adjusting air duct rotates, multi-angle airflow can be achieved. The multi-angle airflow allows all parts of the flower to fully come into contact with the hot air.

[0016] Furthermore, the front opening plate is provided with a ventilation grille, and the front opening plate is made of transparent material.

[0017] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: by setting up a breathable grille, the gas exchange between the drying chamber and the outside world is enhanced, preventing excessive internal humidity. In conjunction with the hot drying mechanism, airflow is guided, effectively accelerating the drying speed.

[0018] Furthermore, the regulating duct is provided with a strip-shaped air outlet groove.

[0019] Furthermore, a speed-increasing guide duct can be detachably installed on the outside of the air outlet duct.

[0020] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improvement scheme are as follows: by setting up a speed-increasing guide duct, the airflow can be compressed and accelerated, increasing the wind speed and allowing the hot air to act on the flowers more quickly, significantly improving the drying efficiency; at the same time, it plays a guiding role in the airflow, making the hot air blow more concentrated on the flowers, solving the problems of insufficient wind speed and dispersed airflow in traditional ventilation methods.

[0021] Furthermore, the exterior of the air outlet slot is provided with a guide slot for fixing the speed-increasing guide air duct, and the speed-increasing guide air duct is fixedly installed by a guide block on one side of the installation end corresponding to the guide slot.

[0022] Furthermore, both the mounting end and the air outlet end of the speed-increasing guide duct are square structures, and the opening height of one end of the mounting end is greater than the opening height of the air outlet end.

[0023] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of the multi-layer preserved flower drying rack provided by this utility model are as follows: By establishing multiple independent drying chambers, different types and states of preserved flowers can be dried simultaneously, improving the efficiency of the drying rack; the back panel provides support and seals the rear of the drying chamber, ensuring stable airflow and preventing heat loss; the movable front opening panel allows users to easily place the preserved flowers to be dried into the drying chamber and remove them after drying, while also allowing for observation of the flowers' condition; the fixing clips secure the flower stem ends; and the rotatable heating mechanism enables multi-angle airflow, ensuring all parts of the flower are fully exposed to hot air, further improving drying uniformity and preventing insufficient or excessive drying in certain areas from affecting flower quality.

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] like Figure 1-3 The image shows an embodiment of a multi-layer preserved flower drying rack provided by this utility model. In this embodiment, the drying rack 10 includes a multi-layer drying chamber 101. A back plate 102 is provided on one side of the drying chamber 101, and a front opening plate 103 is movably connected to the other side of the drying chamber 101. A rotating and adjustable heat drying mechanism is provided inside the drying chamber 101, and multiple sets of fixing clips 104 are provided at the top of the drying chamber 101.

[0034] In use, the operator opens the front panel 103, fixes the end of the flower stems of the preserved flowers to be dried using the fixing clips 104, and hangs the flowers one by one inside the drying chamber 101. The fan 11 is started to continuously and stably deliver hot air into the main air duct 12. One end of the main air duct 12 is connected to the output port of the fan 11, and the other end extends into the drying chamber 101, so that the airflow can be effectively output inside the drying chamber 101. During the drying process, the stepper motor 13 is started to drive the adjusting air duct 14 to swing up and down along the outside of the main air duct 12, thereby changing the angle of the air outlet, so that the hot air blows onto the flowers from different angles, covering the surface of the flowers in all directions, ensuring that all parts can be evenly contacted by the hot air, and effectively improving the uniformity of drying.

[0035] In the above technical solution, the hot drying mechanism includes multiple sets of fans 11 and main air duct 12. The fans 11 are fixedly installed on the side of the drying rack 10 through the receiving seat.

[0036] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, one end of the main air duct 12 is fixedly connected to the output port of the fan 11, and the other end extends through into the interior of the drying chamber 101.

[0037] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, multiple sets of air outlets are opened on the main air duct 12, and the positions and numbers of the air outlets correspond to those of the fixing clips 104.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown in Figure 5, the clamping end of the locking clip 104 is provided with arc-shaped grooves 1041 on both sides, and the inner side of the arc-shaped grooves 1041 is provided with rubber pads 105, which are used to avoid damaging the flower stems and to prevent them from falling off.

[0039] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, a stepper motor 13 is fixedly installed at the other end of the inner wall of the drying chamber 101. The output shaft of the stepper motor 13 is fixedly connected to the adjusting air duct 14. The adjusting air duct 14 is sleeved outside the main air duct 12, and its end is movably connected to the main air duct 12.

[0040] The regulating duct 14 is movably connected to the main duct 12 through a mechanical seal structure. The stepper motor 13 and the fan 11 are respectively connected to the PLC controller to control and adjust the rotation angle of the regulating duct 14 and the output level of the fan 11.

[0041] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, a ventilation grille is provided on the front opening plate 103, and the front opening plate 103 is made of transparent material.

[0042] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the regulating duct 14 is provided with a strip-shaped air outlet groove.

[0043] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, a speed-increasing guide duct 15 is detachably installed on the outside of the air outlet duct.

[0044] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the outside of the air outlet duct is provided with a guide slot for fixing and installing the speed-increasing guide air duct 15, and the speed-increasing guide air duct 15 is fixedly installed by a guide block on one side of the installation end corresponding to the guide slot.

[0045] The speed-increasing airflow guide duct 15 is detachably installed on the outside of the air outlet duct by engaging with the guide slot outside the air outlet duct via a guide plug. The opening height of the installation end of the speed-increasing airflow guide duct 15 is greater than that of the air outlet end. When hot air flows into the air duct from the air outlet duct, the cross-section of the channel becomes smaller, which compresses and accelerates the airflow, increases the wind speed, and allows the hot air to act on the flowers more quickly, significantly shortening the drying time.

[0046] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, both the mounting end and the air outlet end of the speed-increasing guide duct 15 are square structures, and the opening height of one end of the mounting end is greater than the opening height of the air outlet end.

[0047] Specifically, the principle of this utility model is as follows: the fan 11 continuously and stably delivers hot air into the main air duct 12. One end of the main air duct 12 is connected to the output port of the fan 11, and the other end extends into the drying chamber 101, so that the airflow can be effectively output inside the drying chamber 101. During the drying process, the stepper motor 13 is started to drive the adjusting air duct 14 to swing up and down along the outside of the main air duct 12, thereby changing the angle of the air outlet, so that the hot air blows onto the flower from different angles, covering the surface of the flower in all directions, ensuring that all parts can be evenly contacted by the hot air, and effectively improving the uniformity of drying.
