[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This continuous feeding dried fruit drying machine, through the setting of a distribution plate, guide pipe, conveyor cylinder, and stirring rod, first places the dried fruit on the upper surface of the distribution plate inside the feeding funnel. The dried fruit falls through the distribution hole onto the conveyor belt assembly for drying. The dried fruit that is stuck together rolls downwards and rolls through the guide pipe to the lower part of the inner cavity of the conveyor cylinder. Then, the second motor drives the spiral blades to rotate, and the rotating spiral blades convey the dried fruit in the lower part of the inner cavity of the conveyor cylinder upwards and convey it into the inside of the feeding funnel through the discharge pipe. Then, the first motor drives the stirring rod to rotate, and the stirring rod drives the stirring bar to rotate. The rotating stirring bar impacts the dried fruit that is stuck together, causing the stuck dried fruit to separate. Thus, the dried fruit stuck together inside the feeding funnel can be conveyed back into the feeding funnel for impact separation, thereby improving the drying effect of the dried fruit.

Inside the conduit 8, one end of the guide pipe 8 slopes downward and extends to the lower part of the inner cavity of the conveying cylinder 9. A discharge pipe 12 is connected to the upper part of one side surface of the conveying cylinder 9. One end of the discharge pipe 12 slopes towards the feed hopper 3 and extends into the feed hopper 3. A conveyor belt assembly 13 is installed inside the drying chamber 1, and the extended end of the feed hopper 3 is located above one end of the conveyor belt assembly 13. A drying fan assembly 14 is connected to the top of the drying chamber 1 on one side of the feed hopper 3. A conveying pipe 15 is connected to the output end of the drying fan assembly 14, and one end of the conveying pipe 15 extends into the drying chamber 1. Inside, a support 24 is connected to the top of the feeding hopper 3. The support 24 has a triangular structure. A first motor 6 is connected to the bottom of the upper part of the support 24. A stirring rod 22 is connected to the shaft end of the first motor 6. One end of the stirring rod 22 extends into the inside of the feeding hopper 3. Several stirring bars 23 are connected to the circumferential surface of the extended end of the stirring rod 22. The stirring bars 23 are impact bars. The dried fruit falls through the dispensing hole 5 onto the conveyor belt assembly 13 for drying. The dried fruit that sticks together rolls downwards and rolls through the guide tube 8 into the lower part of the inner cavity of the conveyor cylinder 9, and then through the first The second motor 10 drives the spiral blades 11 to rotate. The rotating spiral blades 11 convey the dried fruit from the lower part of the inner cavity of the conveying cylinder 9 upwards and through the discharge pipe 12 to the inside of the feeding funnel 3. Then, the first motor 6 drives the stirring rod 22 to rotate, and the stirring rod 22 drives the stirring bar 23 to rotate. The rotating stirring bar 23 impacts the dried fruit that is stuck together, causing the stuck dried fruit to separate. Thus, the dried fruit stuck together inside the feeding funnel 3 can be conveyed back into the feeding funnel 3 for impact separation, improving the drying effect of the dried fruit.

[0024] Specifically, the material distribution plate 4 has several material distribution holes 5 through which the dried fruit falls onto the conveyor belt assembly 13.

[0025] Furthermore, a second motor 10 is installed at the top of the conveyor cylinder 9. The shaft of the second motor 10 extends into the interior of the conveyor cylinder 9, and a spiral blade 11 is connected to the shaft. The bottom end of the spiral blade 11 is rotatably connected to the conveyor cylinder 9 via a bearing. The second motor 10 drives the spiral blade 11 to rotate, and the rotating spiral blade 11 conveys the dried fruit from the lower part of the inner cavity of the conveyor cylinder 9 upwards. A hot air exhaust assembly 16 is installed on the upper part of the other side of the drying chamber 1. The hot air exhaust assembly 16 includes a housing and a negative pressure fan. The input end of the hot air exhaust assembly 16 extends into the interior of the drying chamber 1. The moisture and air inside the drying chamber 1 are discharged. Baffles 21 are connected to the front and rear edges of the upper surface of the conveyor belt assembly 13. The baffles 21 are made of rubber and prevent the dried fruit from rolling out from the front and rear ends of the upper surface of the conveyor belt assembly 13. The top edges of the two baffles 21 near the feed hopper 3 are connected to an inclined plate to prevent the fed dried fruit from falling off the conveyor belt assembly 13. A receiving box 17 is connected to the bottom of the inside of the drying chamber 1 and is located below the other end of the conveyor belt assembly 13. The dried fruit is collected through the receiving box 17.

[0026] Furthermore, a pressure sensor 18 is installed at the bottom of the receiving box 17. The pressure sensor 18 is electrically connected to the matching controller, and the controller is electrically connected to the alarm 20 and the second motor 10. A pressure plate 19 is connected to the top of the pressure sensor 18, and a receiving basket is installed at the top of the pressure plate 19. The receiving basket facilitates the removal of the dried fruit from the drying chamber 1. An alarm 20 is connected to the top of the drying chamber 1 on the side of the drying fan assembly 14 away from the feeding funnel 3. The dried fruit inside the receiving box 17 presses down on the pressure plate 19, and the pressure plate 19 presses down on the pressure sensor 18. When the pressure on the pressure sensor 18 reaches the set value, the receiving box 17 is full. The pressure sensor 18 transmits a signal to the matching controller, which controls the second motor 10 to stop working, thereby stopping the feeding of dried fruit. The controller also controls the alarm 20 to sound, so as to promptly remind the staff that the receiving box 17 is full of dried fruit.

[0027] The usage method of this embodiment is as follows: All electrical components mentioned in this application are connected to an external power source during use.

The drying fan assembly 14 transmits heat to the inside of the drying chamber 1 through the conveying pipe 15, drying the dried fruit on the conveyor belt assembly 13. The conveyor belt assembly 13 transports the dried fruit towards the receiving box 17, causing the dried fruit to fall from the conveyor belt assembly 13 into the receiving box 17. Dried fruit that is stuck together rolls downwards and falls through the guide pipe 8 into the lower part of the inner cavity of the conveying cylinder 9. Then, the second motor 10 drives the spiral blades 11 to rotate. The rotating spiral blades 11 transport the dried fruit from the lower part of the inner cavity of the conveying cylinder 9 upwards and through the discharge pipe 12 into the feeding funnel 3. Finally, the first electric motor... Machine 6 drives the stirring rod 22 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring bar 23 to rotate. The rotating stirring bar 23 impacts the dried fruits that are stuck together, causing them to separate. This allows the dried fruits stuck together inside the feeding funnel 3 to be transported back into the feeding funnel 3 for impact separation, improving the drying effect of the dried fruits. The dried fruits inside the receiving box 17 press down on the pressure plate 19, which in turn presses down on the pressure sensor 18. When the pressure on the pressure sensor 18 reaches the set value, the receiving box 17 is full.
