[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Example: See Figure 1-6 This utility model discloses a turning-type plum drying device, comprising a base 1, four telescopic columns installed around the base 1, a sieve frame 2 fixedly connected to the top surface of the telescopic columns, and springs 3 sleeved on the outer side of the telescopic columns. The ends of the springs 3 are respectively fixed to the sieve frame 2 and the base 1. A vibrating motor 11 is installed on the bottom surface of the sieve frame 2 to prevent plums from sticking to the sieve frame 2. The bottom of the sieve frame 2 has multiple sieve holes, and both sides of the sieve frame 2 have mounting grooves. A rotating shaft 5 is horizontally inserted between two mounting grooves, and a turning mechanism is sleeved on the rotating shaft 5. The tube has multiple flipping plates 4 around its periphery to facilitate flipping the plums; one end of the rotating shaft 5 is fixedly sleeved with a first gear 7, and the first gear 7 is located in a rotating shaft 5 drive mounting groove on one side of the screen frame 2. The inner bottom surface of this mounting groove is equipped with a toothed plate to cooperate with the first gear 7, so that the servo motor 6 can drive the flipping plate 4 to move; one end of the rotating shaft 5 is rotatably connected to an L-shaped mounting plate, and the mounting plate slides against the outside of the screen frame 2. The mounting plate is equipped with a servo motor 6 for driving the rotating shaft 5, so as to drive the rotating shaft 5.

[0021] In this utility model, both ends of the flipping tube extend into the mounting groove and are fixedly sleeved with the second gear 9, which facilitates the rotating shaft 5 to drive the flipping plate 4 to flip. The top of the mounting groove is open, and the top of the mounting groove is equipped with a rack 10 through a screwdriver, which facilitates the installation and removal of the rack 10. The second gear 9 meshes with the rack 10. Both ends of the flipping tube are provided with a sliding bearing 8, and the inner ring of the sliding bearing 8 abuts against the outer wall of the rotating shaft 5, which facilitates the flipping plate 4 to collect plums when the rack 10 is removed. Rolling wheels are rotatably sleeved on the rotating shaft 5 outside the second gear 9 and at the other end of the rotating shaft 5, and the bottom of the rolling wheels rolls against the mounting groove. A sliding groove is opened along the length direction on the outer wall of the sieve frame 2 on one side of the mounting plate. An anti-rotation protrusion is raised on the contact surface of the mounting plate, and the anti-rotation protrusion is slidably engaged in the sliding groove, which facilitates the movement of the servo motor 6.

[0022] Working principle: When using this invention, plums are first placed on the sieve frame 2. When a flipping operation is required, the rack 10 is bolted to the top of the mounting slot, so that the rack 10 meshes with the second gear 9. Then, the servo motor 6 is started to drive the rotating shaft 5 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 5 drives the first gear 7 to rotate. When the first gear 7 rotates, it can roll and move laterally on the toothed plate, thereby causing the laterally moving rotating shaft 5 to drive the flipping plate 4 to move laterally. At this time, due to the movement of the rotating shaft 5, the second gear 9 will rotate through the meshing of the rack 10. The rotating second gear 9 will then drive the flipping tube and the flipping plate 4 to move laterally. The rotating plate 4 rotates, and the rotating flipping plate 4 turns the plums over. When the plums are drying, the vibrating motor 11 can be started from time to time to vibrate the screen frame 2 to prevent the plums from sticking together. When it is necessary to collect the plums, the rack 10 is removed from the top of the mounting slot and the servo motor 6 is started. At this time, since the second gear 9 is not engaged, the flipping plate 4 will not rotate with the rotating shaft 5 under the action of the sliding bearing 8 and the resistance of the pushed plums. It will only move laterally with the rotating shaft 5. The flipping plate 4, which does not rotate, can push the plums to one end to gather them. The gathered plums are then collected, and the drying is completed.

[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
