[0034] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0035] This utility model embodiment specifically provides a morel mushroom processing and dehydration device, please refer to... Figures 1-4 It includes an outer shell 1, a dehydration chamber 2, a guide assembly 3, a drive assembly 4, and a heating assembly 5.

[0036] The outer shell 1 is provided with a sealing door 11 on the front side. The sealing door 11 is a door-type component commonly used in the prior art. It is used to seal the inside of the outer shell 1 during the dehydration operation and to open it when the morel mushroom raw material is taken out after dehydration.

[0037] The top of the outer shell 1 is fixedly provided with a feeding chamber 13. The inner wall of the feeding chamber 13 is slidably connected to the baffle 14. The bottom of the feeding chamber 13 is connected to the inside of the outer shell 1. When it is necessary to feed material into the outer shell 1, simply pull the baffle 14 outward and pour the morel mushrooms to be dehydrated into the inside of the outer shell 1. Then, when dehydrating, simply reset the baffle 14 and insert it into the inner wall of the feeding chamber 13.

[0038] Specifically, the dehydration chamber 2 is located inside the outer shell 1, the guide component 3 is fixed to the bottom of the inner shell 1, the drive component 4 is fixedly connected to the guide component 3, and under the drive of the drive component 4, the dehydration chamber 2 moves back and forth linearly inside the outer shell 1 through the guide component 3, and the heating component 5 is connected to the inside of the outer shell 1.

[0039] Furthermore, the dehydration chamber 2 includes a chamber body 21 disposed within the outer shell 1 and a screening component disposed on the chamber body 21. The front and top sides of the chamber body 21 are open structures, and there is a gap between the front side of the chamber body 21 and the sealing door 11, and the gap is less than or equal to 1 cm, thereby providing space for subsequent activities of the chamber body 21, while preventing morel mushrooms from falling forward and into the interior of the outer shell 1. The screening component can classify the size of the morel mushrooms fed in, so that the smaller morel mushrooms can be dried below the chamber body 21, thereby keeping them away from the heat source located above the chamber body 21, so that morel mushrooms of different sizes can be heated evenly.

[0040] Specifically, the screening assembly includes screen rods 22 arranged at equal intervals along the length of the bin 21. The screen rods 22 are fixed to the bin 21, and the length of the screen rods 22 is the same as the width of the bin 21.

[0041] During implementation, the spacing of the sieve rods 22 on the sieve assembly is set to gradually decrease from top to bottom, so that the horizontal spacing between the top row of sieve rods 22 and the bottom row of sieve rods 22 gradually decreases, thereby allowing morel mushrooms of different sizes to be dehydrated by being sieved by the sieve rods 22, with their sizes decreasing from large to small and distributed from top to bottom.

[0042] The bottom surface of the chamber 21 is provided with air holes 23 to facilitate the passage of hot air through the chamber 21 for dehydration and drying of morel mushrooms.

[0043] Furthermore, the guide assembly 3 includes a guide seat 31 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the inner wall of the outer casing 1, a guide rail 32 opened on the guide seat 31, and a sliding plate 33 sliding along the guide rail 32. The direction of the guide rail 32 is parallel to the length direction of the compartment 21, so that the sliding plate 33 can slide along this direction.

[0044] The top of the sliding plate 33 is fixedly installed with a seat block 34 for fixed connection with the hopper body 21. The upper and lower ends of the seat block 34 are fixed to the hopper body 21 and the sliding plate 33 respectively, so that the hopper body 21 can slide stably in the left and right directions through the sliding plate 33.

[0045] Specifically, a base 12 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer shell 1. The base 12 is used to raise the bottom height of the outer shell 1 to provide installation space for the drive assembly 4. The drive assembly 4 includes a motor 41 fixed to the bottom surface of the outer shell 1, a drive rod 42 fixedly connected to the motor 41 at one end, a first support column 43 fixed to the upper surface of the drive rod 42, and a push rod 44 rotatably engaged with the first support column 43 at one end. The other end of the push rod 44 is rotatably connected to the transfer plate 33 through a second support column 45. The push rod 44 is located above the drive rod 42. The rotor of the motor 41 passes through the bottom of the outer shell 1 and is fixed to the drive rod 42. The upper and lower ends of the second support column 45 are fixed to the transfer plate 33 and the push rod 44, respectively. Thus, when the motor 41 drives the drive rod 42 to rotate, the drive rod 42 can drive the push rod 44 to move back and forth, causing the transfer plate 33 to move the bin 21 back and forth. This allows the morel mushrooms to be screened on the screen rod 22 after feeding, making it easier for the smaller morel mushrooms to gradually fall into the lower part of the bin 21.

[0046] Once the morel mushrooms are inserted into the outer shell 1, the motor 41 will start running, causing the chamber 21 to move.

[0047] Furthermore, the heating component 5 includes a fan chamber 51, the bottom and top of which are connected to the outer shell 1 and the electric heating chamber 53 respectively via pipes 52. An exhaust fan is installed inside the fan chamber 51 with its output end facing upwards. The electric heating chamber 53 is equipped with an electric heating tube for heating. The electric heating chamber 53 is connected to the inside of the outer shell 1. The exhaust fan sends heat into the inside of the outer shell 1 for heating and dehydration, and the exhaust fan recovers the heat from the bottom of the inside of the outer shell 1 through the lower pipe 52, forming a heat circulation. This allows the larger morel mushrooms located above the chamber 21 to approach the heat source, improving the dehydration efficiency, while the smaller morel mushrooms are kept away from the heat source, resulting in more even heating for both. After completion, simply open the sealed door 11 to remove the dehydrated morel mushrooms.

[0048] The control method of this utility model is to control the device by manually starting and stopping the switch. The wiring diagram of the power element and the supply of power are common knowledge in the field. Since this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and wiring layout will not be explained in detail.

[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
