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.

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a drying device for propolis processing, comprising:

[0027] The drying mechanism includes a base 11, with threaded holes 12 through the corners of the base 11. A U-shaped frame 13 is threadedly fixed to the middle of the upper end of the base 11, and multiple drying racks 17 are evenly distributed on the inner side of the U-shaped frame 13.

[0028] Bolts are inserted into the threaded hole 12 and tightened to fix the base 11, ensuring the stability of the entire device structure. The U-shaped frame 13 provides the structural installation environment, and the propolis to be dried is placed on the drying rack 17.

[0029] The drying mechanism also includes a bearing seat 14, which is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom end of the U-shaped frame 13. A shaft rod 15 is sleeved in the middle of the bearing seat 14 and extends out of the upper part of the U-shaped frame 13. A collar 16 is equidistantly sleeved on the outer surface of the shaft rod 15. One side of the outer surface of the multiple collars 16 is fixed to one side of the drying rack 17.

[0030] A rotating motor 18 is installed through one side of the upper end of the U-shaped frame 13, and the output end of the rotating motor 18 is fixed to the upper end of the shaft 15.

[0031] The bearing seat 14 supports the shaft 15 and reduces rotational friction. The shaft 15 supports and installs multiple collars 16 to fix the structure of multiple drying racks 17 and transmit the force applied by the rotating motor 18, so as to meet the multi-position conversion use of the drying rack 17.

[0032] A positioning ring 19 is fixed to the lower part of the outer surface of the rotating motor 18, and positioning bolts are equidistantly provided in the middle of the positioning ring 19 and threaded into the U-shaped frame 13;

[0033] The positioning bolts fix the positioning ring 19, and the rotating motor 18 is installed through the fixed positioning ring 19.

[0034] The drying mechanism includes a sleeve 21, which is equidistantly connected to the middle of the U-shaped frame 13. One end of the sleeve 21 is fitted with a sleeve post 22, and a support post 23 is connected through the middle of one end of the sleeve post 22. One end of the support post 23 is fixedly connected to a moving block 24, which makes a moving contact with the propolis drying on the upper end of the drying rack 17.

[0035] The other end of the sleeve 21 is threaded with a locking nut 25, which abuts against the U-shaped bracket 13;

[0036] The locking nut 25 abuts against the U-shaped frame 13 to install the sleeve 21, and then cooperates with the sleeve column 22 to install the support column 23. The support column 23 is used to install the actuating block 24. Subsequently, during the movement of the drying rack 17, the actuating block 24 can be used to actively flip the drying rack over for drying.

[0037] Working principle: When drying propolis, the controlled rotating motor 18 actuates the shaft 15 to move multiple drying racks 17 out of the inner side of the U-shaped frame 13. At this time, propolis to be dried is placed on the multiple drying racks 17 in sequence. After one end of the propolis is dried, the controlled rotating motor 18 actuates the shaft 15 again to move the multiple drying racks 17 back to their original positions and out of the U-shaped frame 13 again. During this process, the propolis on the rotating racks comes into contact with the opposite actuating block 24 above, turning the propolis to the other side for drying. After the propolis is dried, the controlled rotating motor 18 actuates the multiple drying racks 17 to return to their original positions.

[0038] This solution allows for the mechanical rotation of multiple drying racks 17 to switch between multiple positions, saving time and effort, reducing the labor intensity of manual operations, and enabling multi-sided drying of propolis, improving the drying effect, further reducing drying intensity, increasing efficiency, and making it convenient to use.

[0039] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment, further includes:

[0040] The rotation protection mechanism includes a connecting post 31, which is L-shaped and sleeved on the other side of the outer surface of the central collar 16. One end of the connecting post 31 is provided with a through post 32, and a proximity sensor 34 is sleeved in the opening at one end of the through post 32. A controller 35 is provided on the upper side of the outer surface of the through post 32 near the proximity sensor 34, and a buzzer 36 is threadedly fixed to the upper end of the controller 35.

[0041] The end thread of the post 32 is provided with a locking nut 33, which abuts against the connecting post 31;

[0042] Locking nut 33 connects and installs connecting post 31 and hole post 32. The distance between the rotating post and external obstacles is detected by proximity sensor 34. The controller 35 triggers the buzzer 36 to sound an alarm and the rotating motor 18 to brake, which can prevent collision damage during movement. The buzzer also reminds personnel to deal with the obstacle in time.

[0043] Working principle: During the rotation of the drying rack 17, the proximity sensor 34 on the outside also rotates due to the linkage operation and detects external obstacles in real time. When an obstacle is detected, the controlled controller 35 activates the buzzer 36 to produce a buzzer warning and activates the rotating motor 18 to brake.

[0044] This design ensures the impact protection of the drying rack's 17 structure during activities and prevents the propolis from falling off after an impact. Additionally, a buzzer alert helps to promptly address obstacles, improving usability.

[0045] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
