Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment technology, specifically to a raw material drying equipment for the preparation of red yeast rice and ginkgo leaf capsules. Background Technology

[0002] Red yeast rice and ginkgo leaf capsules are a product with specific health benefits. They are typically made by extracting and concentrating the active ingredients from red yeast rice and ginkgo leaves, then adding appropriate excipients to form capsules. Red yeast rice is one of the main raw materials for these capsules. It is made by inoculating rice with Monascus purpureus and fermenting it. Red yeast rice usually contains a certain amount of moisture during the production process. Removing the moisture from the raw materials using drying equipment can reduce its water activity, inhibit the growth and reproduction of microorganisms, extend the shelf life of the raw materials, and ensure that the raw materials maintain stable quality during subsequent processing.

[0003] Conventional raw material drying equipment places raw materials in trays and blows in hot air to dry them. However, because the raw materials are stacked together, the air circulation is poor, resulting in the bottom raw materials not being dried. For example, a pharmaceutical raw material drying device disclosed in patent number CN220321875U uses the rotation of the tray to drive the air circulation inside, thereby improving the evaporation of moisture in the raw materials and thus improving the drying effect. However, the rotation of the tray mainly drives the air circulation, and its effect on turning the raw materials is relatively indirect. Due to the limitations of air circulation, it is difficult to ensure that all raw materials in the entire tray are fully in contact with the hot air, which may affect the drying effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a raw material drying device for the preparation of red yeast rice and ginkgo leaf capsules, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a raw material drying device for preparing red yeast rice and ginkgo leaf capsules, comprising a drying device body, trays, a blower chamber, and a blower. Trays are evenly arranged in the center of the drying device body, and a blower chamber is located at the top of the drying device body. A blower is located at the top of the blower chamber, and an electric heating element is located at the bottom of the blower chamber. An air outlet grille is located at the bottom of the blower chamber. A temperature sensor is located on the side wall of the drying device body. Lead screws are installed in the drying device body above the trays, and a drive box is located on one side of the drying device body. Drive gears are evenly arranged in the center of the drive box via a rotating shaft. A drive motor is fixed to the bottom of the drive box, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to the rotating shaft. Drive blocks are sleeved on the lead screws, and a stirring rake is installed at the bottom of each drive block via a housing.

[0006] Preferably, one end of the lead screw extends into the drive housing, and one end of the lead screw is provided with a driven gear that meshes with the driving gear.

[0007] Preferably, a filter screen is provided at the center of the blower chamber, and the filter screen is made of activated carbon.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the housing is uniformly provided with movable iron plates via return springs, and the bottom of the movable iron plates is connected to a stirring rake.

[0009] Preferably, each of the housings between the reset springs is equipped with an electromagnet, and the electromagnets are all located on the same vertical line as the movable iron plate.

[0010] Preferably, guide blocks are provided on both sides of the movable iron plate, and guide grooves are provided on both sides inside the housing.

[0011] Preferably, support blocks are provided inside the drying equipment body on both sides below the tray, and the top of each support block is provided with a sliding groove, and the bottom of the tray is provided with sliding rails on both sides.

[0012] Preferably, a dustproof net is provided on the main body of the drying equipment above the blower, and the dustproof net is evenly connected to the main body of the drying equipment around its perimeter by fasteners.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The raw material drying equipment for the preparation of red yeast rice and ginkgo leaf capsules is equipped with a drying equipment body, tray, screw, drive block, drive box, rotating shaft, drive motor, drive gear, driven gear, shell, and stirring rake. The red yeast rice raw material is placed in the tray and then placed into the drying equipment body. During the drying process, the drive motor drives the rotating shaft and drive gear to rotate, causing the driven gear and screw to rotate, and the drive block to slide along the screw. Then, the stirring rake at the bottom turns the red yeast rice raw material in the tray, making it easier for the moisture inside the red yeast rice raw material to diffuse to the surface and be carried away by hot air. This effectively increases the moisture evaporation area, accelerates the moisture evaporation rate, improves drying efficiency, shortens drying time, and reduces energy consumption costs. At the same time, it can effectively break up the clumps that may form due to moisture loss during the drying process, keeping the raw material in a loose state, which is conducive to improving drying efficiency and quality.

[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. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: a raw material drying device for the preparation of red yeast rice and ginkgo leaf capsules, including a drying device body 1, a tray 2, a blower chamber 5 and a blower 6. The tray 2 is evenly arranged in the center of the drying device body 1. Support blocks 11 are arranged in the drying device body 1 on both sides below the tray 2. The top of the support blocks 11 is opened with a sliding groove. The bottom sides of the tray 2 are provided with sliding rails.

[0023] Place the red yeast rice raw material into tray 2. The bottom slide rail of tray 2 is embedded into the top slide groove of support block 11 and pushed into the main body 1 of drying equipment along the slide groove for fixation.

[0024] The drying equipment body 1 has a blower chamber 5 at the top inside, a blower 6 at the top inside the blower chamber 5, an electric heating element 10 at the bottom inside the blower chamber 5, an air outlet grille 9 at the bottom of the blower chamber 5, and a filter screen 7 at the center inside the blower chamber 5, and the filter screen 7 is made of activated carbon.

[0025] Turn on the blower 6 to draw outside air into the blower chamber 5. After being filtered by the filter screen 7 and heated by the electric heating element 10, the hot air is blown out from the air outlet grille 9 into the tray 2 below. Ventilation holes are opened at the bottom of the tray 2 to improve the air circulation effect. Ventilation holes are opened at the bottom of the drying equipment body 1 to discharge moisture.

[0026] A dustproof net 12 is installed on the main body 1 of the drying equipment above the blower 6, and the dustproof net 12 is evenly connected to the main body 1 of the drying equipment around its perimeter by fasteners to prevent external impurities from entering and clogging the blower 6.

[0027] A temperature sensor 8 is installed on the side wall inside the main body 1 of the drying equipment. The temperature sensor 8 monitors the internal temperature in real time and feeds it back to the control system to adjust the power of the electric heating element 10 to maintain constant temperature drying.

[0028] Each of the main body 1 of the drying equipment above the tray 2 is equipped with a lead screw 22, and a drive box 3 is provided on one side of the main body 1 of the drying equipment. Drive gears 14 are evenly arranged in the center of the drive box 3 through a rotating shaft 13, and a drive motor 4 is fixed at the bottom of the drive box 3. The output end of the drive motor 4 is connected to the rotating shaft 13.

[0029] Each lead screw 22 is fitted with a drive block 16, and the bottom end of each drive block 16 is provided with a stirring rake 18 through the housing 17.

[0030] One end of the lead screw 22 extends into the drive box 3, and one end of the lead screw 22 is provided with a driven gear 15 that meshes with the drive gear 14;

[0031] The drive motor 4 drives the rotating shaft 13 and the drive gear 14 to rotate, causing the driven gear 15 and the lead screw 22 to rotate. The drive block 16 begins to slide along the lead screw 22, which drives the turning rake 18 to turn the raw material.

[0032] This allows the moisture inside the red yeast rice raw material to diffuse more easily to the surface and then be carried away by hot air, improving drying efficiency and shortening drying time. At the same time, it can effectively break up any clumps that may form due to moisture loss during the drying process, keeping the raw material in a loose state.

[0033] The top of the housing 17 is uniformly provided with movable iron plates 21 via return springs 20, and the bottom of the movable iron plates 21 is connected to a stirring rake 18.

[0034] Electromagnets 19 are provided inside the housings 17 between the return springs 20, and the electromagnets 19 are all located on the same vertical line as the movable iron plate 21.

[0035] By controlling the magnitude of the current in the electromagnet 19, its magnetic strength can be changed, thereby adjusting the attraction force on the movable iron plate 21. This allows the stirring rake 18 to be kept at a set working height, and its depth into the tray 2 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0036] Guide blocks are provided on both sides of the movable iron plate 21, and guide grooves are provided on both sides inside the housing 17 to guide and limit the movable iron plate 21, preventing it from shifting horizontally when subjected to the attraction of the electromagnet 19 or the resistance of the raw material, ensuring the accuracy of the turning trajectory of the stirring rake 18, and thus ensuring that the raw material can be turned evenly.

[0037] The specific models and specifications of the drive motor 4, blower 6, temperature sensor 8, and electromagnet 19 need to be determined based on the specifications and parameters of the device. The selection and calculation method is existing technology, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0038] Working Principle: In this embodiment, the red yeast rice raw material is placed in the tray 2. The bottom slide rail of the tray 2 is embedded in the top slide groove of the support block 11 and pushed into the main body 1 of the drying equipment along the slide groove for fixation. The drive motor 4, blower 6, and heating element 10 are turned on. The blower 6 sends air into the blower chamber 5. After being filtered by the filter screen 7 and heated by the heating element 10, the hot air is blown out from the air outlet 9. At the same time, the drive motor 4 drives the rotating shaft 13 and the drive gear 14 to rotate, causing the driven gear 15 and the lead screw 22 to rotate. The drive block 16 begins to slide along the lead screw 22, driving the turning rake 18 to turn the raw material, making it easier for the moisture inside the red yeast rice raw material to diffuse to the surface and then be carried away by the hot air, thus improving the drying effect. High drying efficiency, shortened drying time, and effective dispersal of clumps that may form due to moisture loss during drying, keeping the raw materials loose. Temperature sensor 8 monitors the internal temperature in real time and feeds back to the control system to adjust the power of heating element 10 to maintain constant temperature drying. In addition, by controlling the current of electromagnet 19 to change its magnetic strength, the attraction force on the movable iron plate 21 can be adjusted, keeping the turning rake 18 at the set working height. The depth of its insertion into the tray 2 can be adjusted according to actual needs. After drying, the drive motor 4, blower 6 and heating element 10 are turned off, the tray 2 is removed along the slide of support block 11, the equipment is cleaned after unloading, and it is ready for the next drying.
