Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lotus seed preservation technology, specifically a lotus seed preservation device with a drying function. Background Technology

[0002] Lotus seeds have a high moisture content after harvesting, and their porous structure makes them prone to absorbing moisture. During storage, they are susceptible to mold growth, browning, or insect infestation, leading to quality deterioration and significant losses. Therefore, lotus seeds need to be preserved using storage devices.

[0003] A search of Chinese patent CN221294744U reveals a lotus seed preservation device with a drying function, comprising a preservation box; a placement mesh box disposed inside the preservation box; and a drying mechanism disposed on the preservation box. The drying mechanism is used to ventilate and dry the lotus seeds placed in the placement mesh box. The drying mechanism includes a fan, a vertical pipe, multiple ring pipes, and multiple air outlets. The fan is disposed on one outer wall of the preservation box, the vertical pipe is disposed on the inner wall of the preservation box and connected to the air outlet of the fan, and the multiple ring pipes are disposed on the inner wall of the preservation box and connected to the vertical pipe. This lotus seed preservation device with a drying function can dry the preserved lotus seeds, preventing them from becoming damp and deteriorating, thus ensuring high preservation safety.

[0004] Based on the above search and existing technology, it was found that the above patent has certain defects. During the drying process of lotus seeds, many dead corners in the device are difficult to dry, resulting in uneven drying of lotus seeds in the device. In addition, during the storage process, some impurities on the lotus seeds are easy to fall off, which is not convenient to filter out. Utility Model Content

By delivering hot air to the inside of the tank 1, the hot air dries the lotus seeds. The dried hot air is then moved out of the inside of the tank 1 through the air vent 3.

[0028] The staff opened the solenoid valve outlet 4 and moved the preserved lotus seeds out of the inside of the tank 1.

[0029] Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the drying mechanism includes an interface 5 fixedly installed on the tank body 1. An air supply assembly is provided on the interface 5, and two guide pipes 8 are provided on the air supply assembly. A movable assembly is provided between the tank body 1 and the two guide pipes 8. The air supply assembly includes a ring cover 6 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the tank body 1 and the interface 5. A ring plate 7 fixed to the two guide pipes 8 is rotatably installed on the ring cover 6. The movable assembly includes two fixed rings 9 fixedly installed on the two guide pipes 8 respectively. A ring shell 10 is rotatably installed on the outer side of each fixed ring 9. The movable assembly also includes a drive motor 12 fixedly installed on the top of the tank body 1. A rotating frame 11 rotatably connected to the tank body 1 is fixedly installed on the output end of the drive motor 12, and the rotating frame 11 is fixed to the two ring shells 10. A toothed ring 13 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the tank body 1. A gear 14 meshing with the toothed ring 13 is fixedly installed on each guide pipe 8.

[0030] In this embodiment of the utility model, interface 5 is connected to an external hot air conveying device. The operator controls the drive motor 12 to operate, so that the output end of the drive motor 12 rotates and drives the rotating frame 11 to rotate. The rotating frame 11 drives the guide tube 8 to move through the ring shell 10 and the fixed ring 9. The guide tube 8 drives the gear 14 to mesh with the gear ring 13, so that the guide tube 8 rotates. At the same time, the external conveying device delivers hot air through interface 5 to the area between the ring cover 6 and the ring plate 7, so that the hot air is sprayed out through the guide tube 8, thereby facilitating the uniform drying of lotus seeds in various positions in the tank 1.

[0031] Figures 1 to 5As shown, a filtration mechanism is provided on the tank body 1. The filtration mechanism includes a support assembly on the tank body 1, a discharge shell 18 on the support assembly, a vibrator 19 fixedly mounted on the discharge shell 18, and a collection assembly on the discharge shell 18. The support assembly includes two support frames 15 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the tank body 1. Each support frame 15 is connected to two springs 16. The end of each spring 16 is connected to a sleeve 17 that is slidably connected to the support frame 15, and multiple sleeves 17 are fixed together to the discharge shell 18. The collection assembly includes two fixing sleeves 20 fixedly mounted on the discharge shell 18. Each fixing sleeve 20 has a sliding insert rod 21 on its inner side. A collection shell 22 is fixedly mounted between the two insert rods 21. A positioning frame 23 is fixedly mounted on the collection shell 22. A threaded bolt 24 is threadedly mounted on the positioning frame 23. A threaded block 25 that is threadedly connected to the threaded bolt 24 is fixedly mounted on the discharge shell 18.

[0032] In this embodiment of the utility model, the operator controls the vibrator 19 to operate, causing the discharge shell 18 to vibrate under the support of the housing 17, spring 16 and support frame 15. The operator controls the solenoid valve outlet 4 to open, causing the stored lotus seeds to fall into the inner side of the discharge shell 18. Under the vibration of the vibrator 19, the lotus seeds in the discharge shell 18 gradually move along the discharge shell 18 to the subsequent receiving equipment. During the movement, impurities that fall off the lotus seeds fall into the inner side of the collection shell 22 through the round hole of the discharge shell 18, thereby facilitating the filtration of the lotus seeds.

[0033] The worker unscrews the threaded bolt 24 out of the inside of the threaded block 25, moves the collection shell 22, and causes the collection shell 22 to move the insertion rod 21 out of the inside of the fixing sleeve 20, so as to facilitate the disassembly of the collection shell 22 and the cleaning of the lotus seed impurities collected in the collection shell 22. The cleaning collection shell 22 is then re-fixed to the bottom of the discharge shell 18 using the insertion rod 21 and the fixing sleeve 20. The threaded bolt 24 is then screwed in, so that the threaded bolt 24 moves back into the inside of the threaded block 25 under the threaded support of the positioning frame 23 and the threaded block 25.

[0034] Working principle: The operator opens the top cover 2 by turning it, and moves the lotus seeds into the inside of the tank 1 through the inlet. Then, the top cover 2 is used to close the inlet of the tank 1. The drive motor 12 is controlled to operate, so that the rotating frame 11 drives the guide tube 8 through the ring shell 10 and the fixed ring 9 to move. The guide tube 8 drives the gear 14 to mesh with the gear ring 13, so that the guide tube 8 rotates. At the same time, hot air is delivered through the interface 5 to the area between the ring cover 6 and the ring plate 7 through the external conveying equipment. The hot air is sprayed out through the guide tube 8 to dry the lotus seeds in various positions in the tank 1 evenly. The dried hot air is removed from the inside of the tank 1 through the air port 3.

[0035] The staff operates the vibrator 19 and controls the solenoid valve outlet 4 to open, causing the stored lotus seeds to fall into the inside of the discharge shell 18. Under the vibration of the vibrator 19, the lotus seeds in the discharge shell 18 gradually move along the discharge shell 18 to the subsequent receiving equipment. During the movement, impurities that fall off the lotus seeds fall into the inside of the collection shell 22 through the round hole of the discharge shell 18, thus filtering the lotus seeds.

[0036] The above description is the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
