It includes a base, a housing mounted on the base, multiple load-bearing blocks fixedly installed on the inner wall of the housing, and a gas transmission mechanism on each load-bearing block. A heating chamber is located behind the base, and an air compressor is located to the right of the heating chamber. A steam generator is located to the right of the air compressor. Through the heating chamber and steam generator, high-temperature steam is generated, effectively sterilizing and disinfecting the food raw materials. After sterilization, the steam generator is turned off, and the heating chamber, air compressor, and transmission mechanism are used to perform high-temperature drying of the food raw materials, further achieving the sterilization and disinfection effect. This utility model reduces the labor intensity of workers, improves the efficiency of sterilization and disinfection, and increases production efficiency.
[0004] While the above-mentioned methods have certain advantages in improving sterilization efficiency, they still have certain drawbacks.
[0005] 1. When sterilizing food ingredients, if too many food ingredients are placed in the cart, the equipment may not be able to sterilize them completely because the space between the food ingredients is too narrow.

[0067] A second connecting pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the air compressor 19. A transmission pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the bottom end of the placement cavity 101, and the rear end of the transmission pipe 22 is connected to the air compressor 19 through the second connecting pipe 21. The transmission pipe 22 has multiple exhaust holes to allow gas to be discharged. A fixing plate 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the placement cavity 101. A first placement plate 24 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixing plate 23. Two rotating bearings 25 are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the first placement plate 24. A telescopic plate 26 is rotatably connected to the rotating bearings 25. The telescopic plate 26 is made of multiple sets of connecting plates that are rotatably connected to each other in a cross manner to extend and retract. A straight groove 27 is provided on the outer side of the fixing plate 23, and the outer side of the straight groove 27 and the inner side of the telescopic plate 26 are slidably connected to each other through a connecting column. The centers of the left and right end faces of multiple second placement plates 28 are slidably connected to the inner side of the fixing plate 23 below the first placement plate 24, and the left and right sides of the second placement plates 28 are connected to the telescopic plate 26. The left and right ends of the inner side of the shrink plate 26 are connected to each other by connecting columns. The lower end of the second placement plate 28 is fixedly connected to a long strip plate 29, and the long strip plate 29 is fixedly connected to the lowest end of multiple second placement plates 28. The long strip plate 29 is inserted into and slidably connected to the bottom end of the placement cavity 101. The lower end of the long strip plate 29 is fixedly connected to a trapezoidal block 30. The left and right sides of the trapezoidal block 30 are slidably connected to trapezoidal clamping blocks 31. The inner side of the trapezoidal clamping block 31 is rotatably connected to a roller 32. The rear end of the trapezoidal clamping block 31 is threadedly connected to a bidirectional screw 33, and the bidirectional screw 33 is located inside the bottom end of the box 1 and is rotatably connected to the box 1. The right end of the bidirectional screw 33 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 34. The upper end of the first placement plate 24 and the second placement plate 28 are slidably connected to a pull-out plate 35, and the bottom end of the inner side of the pull-out plate 35, the first placement plate 24, and the second placement plate 28 are all provided with dense ventilation holes to allow gas to circulate.
[0068] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:
[0069] First, when there are many food ingredients placed on the pull-out plate 35, the second motor 34 is turned on to drive the bidirectional screw 33 to rotate, which in turn drives the trapezoidal clamping block 31 to move. At the same time, the trapezoidal block 30 is clamped and squeezed on the left and right inclined surfaces. The rolling of the roller 32 causes the trapezoidal block 30 to move upward, which in turn drives the long strip plate 29 to lift the second placement plate 28 upward. At the same time, the extension and retraction of the telescopic plate 26 drives multiple second placement plates 28 to move upward (or downward) in sync, making the vertical distance between the second placement plates 28 smaller (or larger). Adjustments can be made quickly as needed, which greatly solves the problem of incomplete sterilization.
[0070] Secondly, while sterilization is being performed, the first motor 5 is simultaneously turned on, driving the fan blades 7 to rotate via the connecting column 6. This guides the steam inside the placement chamber 101 into the filter chamber 8. Through contact with multiple heat dissipation plates 9, the steam condenses into water upon cooling, flowing downwards through the activated carbon filter plate 10 for filtration. The water then enters the pipe 11 and flows through the short connecting pipe 12 into the inside of the first water tank 13 for collection. A water level monitoring device is installed inside the second water tank 14 to detect the water level. When the water level in the second water tank 14 is detected to be below the level value, the water level monitoring device triggers the electric valve 15 to open, allowing the first water tank 13 and the second water tank 14 to communicate (the electric valve 15 is closed by default to prevent clean water and filtered water from mixing together initially, and to allow for timely detection and replacement if problems are found with the filtered water). This allows the filtered water to flow into the second water tank 14, enabling repeated collection and reuse, and making it safer to use again.
[0071] This invention provides an improved food ingredient sterilization device. When there are too many (or too few) food ingredients placed on the pull-out plate 35, the sterilization effect is affected. By activating the second motor 34 to extend and retract the telescopic plate 26, the second placement plate 28 is moved, which can quickly adjust the distance between the food ingredients and improve the sterilization effect. Furthermore, by activating the first motor 5 to drive the fan blades 7 to introduce steam into the filter chamber 8 for filtration, the steam then flows into the first water tank 13 for collection. The water level monitoring device inside the second water tank 14 detects and triggers the electric valve 15 to open, which can quickly circulate and replenish the water inside the second water tank 14, making it safer to use.
[0072] The above describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market, and irregularly shaped parts can be customized according to the description and drawings.
