Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of Moringa leaf preservation technology, and in particular relates to a refrigeration device that facilitates the preservation of Moringa leaves. Background Technology
[0002] Moringa leaves refer to the leaves of the Moringa tree (also known as the drumstick tree), a perennial tropical deciduous tree native to India. They are edible, and Moringa leaf powder has the effects of lowering blood sugar, lowering blood lipids, lowering blood pressure, anti-tumor, antioxidant, laxative, diuretic, anthelmintic, and improving sleep. Long-term consumption can enhance the body's immune function, delay aging, and prevent diseases.
[0003] However, in traditional Moringa leaf preservation practices, stacking and refrigeration is a common method. Stacking and refrigeration makes it difficult to ensure uniform cooling among Moringa leaves. Since Moringa leaves are usually stored in a stacked manner in the refrigeration room, cold air often cannot penetrate the densely stacked leaves, resulting in the inner leaves having a higher temperature, while the outer leaves may be damaged due to excessive cooling. This temperature unevenness not only shortens the shelf life of Moringa leaves, but may also cause local spoilage and affect the overall quality. Utility Model Content

It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0021] This utility model embodiment provides a refrigeration device for easy preservation of Moringa leaves, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, the refrigeration device for facilitating the preservation of Moringa leaves includes: a base plate 1, with a refrigeration box 2 fixed to the top of the base plate 1 for preserving and refrigerating Moringa leaves; a rotatable placement frame 3, which is disposed inside the refrigeration box 2 and has multiple removable mesh baskets 7 for holding Moringa leaves; a refrigeration unit 4, which is fixedly installed on the top of the refrigeration box 2; an air outlet duct 5, which is fixedly installed inside the refrigeration box 2 and has its air inlet end fixedly connected to the cold air output end of the refrigeration unit 4; a distribution plate 6, which is fixedly installed inside the refrigeration box 2 for dividing space and distributing cold air; and a drive mechanism, which is disposed on the refrigeration box 2 for driving the placement frame 3 to rotate.
[0022] In this embodiment, the base plate 1 and the refrigerator 2 provide a stable foundation and refrigeration environment, ensuring that the moringa leaves can be preserved under suitable low-temperature conditions and extending their shelf life. The rotation of the placement frame 3 is driven by a drive mechanism, allowing the placement frame 3 to rotate so that moringa leaves in different positions can come into contact with cold air, solving the problem that cold air cannot penetrate densely packed leaves in traditional stacking refrigeration methods. The pull-out and detachable nature of the wire mesh basket 7 makes it easy for users to remove or put in moringa leaves, and also facilitates cleaning and maintenance. The refrigeration unit 4 provides a continuous supply of cold air, ensuring that the temperature inside the refrigerator 2 is maintained within a suitable range. The air outlet duct 5 evenly delivers the cold air generated by the refrigeration unit into the refrigerator 2, and in conjunction with the distribution plate 6, achieves effective distribution of cold air. The even distribution of cold air is achieved by the distribution plate 6, which, through its space-separating air vents, evenly distributes the cold air to every corner of the refrigerator 2, further solving the problem of uneven cold air distribution. The rotation of the drive placement frame 3 ensures uniform cooling of the moringa leaves, avoiding the temperature unevenness caused by the difficulty of cold air penetration in traditional stacking refrigeration methods. In summary, the refrigeration device for moringa leaf preservation provided by this utility model, through the cooperation of the rotatable placement frame 3, the pull-out and detachable wire basket 7, the refrigeration unit 4, the air outlet pipe, the distribution plate, and the drive mechanism, effectively solves the problems of uneven cooling and temperature unevenness leading to shortened shelf life and quality damage in traditional stacking refrigeration methods, thus improving the preservation effect and overall quality of moringa leaves.
[0023] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes: a mounting shell 8 fixed to the bottom of the refrigerator box 2; a motor 9 and a reducer 10 fixed inside the mounting shell 8, wherein the output shaft of the motor 9 is fixedly connected to the input shaft of the reducer 10 via a coupling; and a rotating rod 11 rotatably mounted inside the refrigerator box 2, wherein the top end of the rotating rod 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the placement frame 3, and the bottom end of the rotating rod 11 extends into the mounting shell 8 and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the reducer 10 via a coupling.
[0024] In this embodiment, the mounting shell 8 is fixed to the bottom of the refrigerator 2, providing a stable installation environment for the motor 9 and the reducer 10; protecting the motor 9 and the reducer 10 from external environmental interference, while facilitating maintenance and replacement; the reducer 10 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 9 via a coupling, serving to reduce speed and increase torque, ensuring that the rotating rod 11 can rotate smoothly and slowly, avoiding excessive impact on the moringa leaves; the rotating rod 11 is rotatably installed inside the refrigerator 2, with its top end fixedly connected to the bottom of the placement frame 3, and its bottom end extending into the mounting shell 8; serving as a drive shaft, it carries the motor... The rotational power of motor 9 and reducer 10 is transmitted to the placement frame 3, enabling it to rotate. The motor 9 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of reducer 10 via a coupling to ensure stable transmission of rotational power. After motor 9 starts, it reduces speed and increases torque through reducer 10, transmitting rotational power to rotating rod 11, which in turn drives the placement frame 3 to rotate. The rotation of placement frame 3 allows moringa leaves in different positions to have the opportunity to come into contact with cold air, achieving uniform cooling of moringa leaves. This driving method not only improves the utilization rate of cold air, but also avoids the temperature unevenness caused by the difficulty of cold air penetration in traditional stacking and refrigeration methods.
[0025] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a plurality of groove blocks 12 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the inner wall of the placement frame 3. A retractable diversion slide plate 13 is slidably installed on the groove block 12. The slide plate 13 is fixedly connected to the wire mesh basket 7. A pluggable pin 14 is provided on the groove block 12. The pin 14 passes through the slide plate 13 and is used for limiting the position.
[0026] In this embodiment, the sliding installation of the slide plate 13 on the groove block 12 and the limiting effect of the pin 14 enable the flexible adjustment and fixation of the wire mesh basket 7 within the placement frame 3. This design not only improves the storage flexibility and ease of handling of Moringa leaves, but also ensures the stability and uniform cooling of Moringa leaves during refrigeration.
[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an exhaust pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the refrigerator 2, and an automatic exhaust valve is provided on the exhaust pipe 15.
[0028] In this embodiment, the exhaust pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the refrigerator 2, serving as a channel for the exchange of gas inside the refrigerator 2 with the outside. The automatic exhaust valve can automatically adjust its opening according to the pressure inside the refrigerator 2 to achieve stable gas discharge and prevent excessive gas pressure inside the refrigerator 2.
[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a drain pipe 16 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the refrigerator 2 for discharging condensate, and a water valve is provided on the drain pipe 16.
[0030] In this embodiment, the drain pipe 16 and the water valve are used in conjunction. The water valve can be opened or closed as needed to control the discharge of condensate. When the condensate accumulates to a certain level, the water valve can be opened for discharge; when discharge is not required, the water valve can be closed to prevent condensate leakage or outside air from entering the refrigerator 2 through the drain pipe 16.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the base plate 1 is symmetrically and fixedly equipped with self-locking universal wheels for movement.
[0032] In this embodiment, the symmetrically fixed installation on the bottom of the base plate 1 serves as the moving device for the entire refrigeration equipment; the self-locking casters not only possess the flexible steering capability of traditional casters, but also can fix the position of the equipment when needed through the self-locking function to prevent it from sliding or moving.
[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the refrigerator 2 is provided with an openable and closable sealed door, which is connected to the refrigerator 2 via a hinge, and the sealed door is provided with a visual observation window and a knob handle lock.
[0034] In this embodiment, the combination of the openable and closable sealed door, hinge connection, visual observation window and knob handle lock realizes the flexible opening and closing, intuitive observation and safety protection functions of the refrigerator 2; this design not only improves the practicality and convenience of the refrigerator 2.
[0035] In summary, the base plate 1 and the refrigerator 2 together form a stable basic structure, providing a suitable low-temperature refrigeration environment for Moringa leaves and effectively extending their shelf life. The drive mechanism allows the placement frame to rotate, ensuring that Moringa leaves in different positions can come into contact with cold air, solving the problem of cold air being difficult to penetrate densely packed leaves in traditional stacking refrigeration methods, and achieving uniform cooling of Moringa leaves. The wire mesh basket 7, within the placement frame 3, achieves flexible adjustment and fixation through the sliding installation of the slide plate 13 and the limiting action of the pin 14, improving the storage flexibility and ease of handling of Moringa leaves. The cooperation between the air outlet duct 5 and the distribution plate 6 evenly delivers the cold air generated by the refrigeration unit 4 into the refrigerator 2 and distributes it to all corners, further solving the problem of uneven cold air distribution and improving the utilization rate of cold air.
