Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of feeding mechanism, and more specifically, it relates to a feeding mechanism for air-source heat pump drying equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Goji berries are a precious medicinal herb and tonic, but fresh goji berries have an extremely short shelf life. Therefore, they need to be dried to dehydrate and preserve their quality, in order to meet the needs of subsequent transportation and storage. With the development of technology, modern goji berry drying equipment has gradually emerged. Among them, air source heat pump drying equipment has been widely used due to its advantages such as high efficiency and environmental protection. Air source heat pumps supply hot air for drying, which greatly improves the drying speed compared to traditional sun-drying. In order to facilitate the feeding process of goji berry drying equipment, a feeding mechanism is needed.
[0003] Based on existing technology, it has been found that in existing goji berry air-source heat pump drying equipment, vibration feeding is generally used to unload the dried material. However, during the drying process, the juice inside the goji berries expands due to heat, and some cell structures rupture, causing the juice to seep out. The seeping juice is rapidly concentrated in the high-temperature environment, resulting in a strong adhesion layer between the dried goji berries and the carrier plate. When the equipment starts vibration feeding, the mechanical vibration force generated by the vibration motor alone is insufficient to effectively overcome the adhesion between the goji berries and the carrier plate. Especially for goji berries with a large area of adhesion, the vibration energy is lost during transmission, making it impossible to achieve effective separation and falling of the material. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model relates to a feeding mechanism for an air-source heat pump drying equipment, which solves the problem that the dried goji berries stick to the surface of the carrier tray. Relying solely on the mechanical vibration force generated by the vibrating motor is insufficient to effectively overcome the adhesion between the goji berries and the carrier tray, and therefore cannot achieve effective separation and falling of the material.
[0005] This utility model provides a feeding mechanism for an air-source heat pump drying device, which is achieved by the following specific technical means:
[0006] An air-source heat pump drying equipment feeding mechanism includes: a drying tray; two sets of stabilizing grooves on the drying tray; a displacement plate slidably connected inside the drying tray; two sets of constraint grooves at the bottom of the displacement plate; two sets of inward turning grooves at the top of the displacement plate; two sets of side connecting grooves at the bottom of the displacement plate; scrapers fixedly inserted inside the two sets of side connecting grooves; two sets of shrinkage grooves at the bottom of the displacement plate; connecting rods rotatably connected inside the two sets of inward turning grooves; outward extending rods movably connected inside the two sets of shrinkage grooves; two sets of outward extending rods slidably connected inside the two sets of stabilizing grooves; connecting screw grooves at the bottom of the two sets of outward extending rods; and inward retraction springs on the outside of the two sets of outward extending rods.
[0007] Preferably, a sliding groove is formed on the inner wall of the drying tray; two sets of partition strips are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the drying tray; ventilation holes are formed in an array on the drying tray; the ventilation holes are distributed between the two sets of partition strips.
[0008] Preferably, the two sets of stabilizing grooves are respectively disposed on the outside of the two sets of partition strips, and the two sets of stabilizing grooves are respectively connected to the sliding grooves on the inner wall of the drying tray.
[0009] Preferably, the edge of the displacement plate is slidably connected to the sliding groove of the drying tray; corresponding partition strips are slidably connected to the two sets of constraint grooves; and shaft holes are connected to the two sets of inward turning grooves.
[0010] Preferably, the two sets of side grooves are each connected to a circular insertion hole; the two sets of scrapers are each in contact with the surface of the drying tray; and the bottom of the two sets of shrinkage grooves is each connected to a circular through hole.
[0011] Preferably, the ends of the two sets of connecting rods are respectively fixed with cylindrical protrusions for engaging with the shaft holes of the inner groove; the other ends of the two sets of connecting rods are respectively fixed with mating screws.
[0012] Preferably, the bottom of each of the two sets of extended rods is provided with a hexagonal prism-shaped protrusion; the interior of each of the two sets of mating screw grooves is threadedly connected to the corresponding mating screw.
[0013] The feeding mechanism for the air-source heat pump drying equipment proposed in this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. The ingenious design of the displacement plate and scraper greatly facilitates the material feeding process. When feeding, push the extension rod, the displacement plate slides along the partition bar, and drives the scraper to move. The scraper is in close contact with the surface of the drying tray, which can effectively scrape off the goji berries that are stuck to the bottom of the drying tray, ensuring smooth feeding, reducing the residue of goji berries in the drying tray, improving the utilization rate of materials, and reducing cleaning costs and labor intensity.
[0015] 2. For multi-layer drying trays stacked together, the connecting rod's connecting screw and the extension rod's connecting screw groove can be connected to achieve synchronous adjustment of the multi-layer displacement plates. Rotating the bottom extension rod can synchronously drive the multi-layer displacement plates to slide, greatly improving the efficiency of multi-layer goji berry feeding and cleaning of adhesion. It is especially suitable for large-scale production scenarios, saving manpower and time costs. Attached Figure Description
