Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sugar spraying machine technology, specifically a strawberry drying sugar spraying machine. Background Technology
[0002] Strawberry spray-dried strawberries are a food processing technique that involves drying strawberries and then spraying a layer of sugar syrup evenly onto their surface. In the process, ripe, high-quality strawberries are typically selected, pre-treated by washing, removing stems, and slicing, and then dehydrated using low-temperature drying or natural sun-drying. Next, an appropriate amount of sugar is dissolved in water to prepare a sugar syrup of a certain concentration. This syrup is then evenly sprayed onto the surface of the dried strawberries using a spraying device. This method preserves the aroma and some nutrients of the strawberries while adding sweetness, resulting in a richer, sweet and sour taste. The sugar syrup also helps to prevent moisture and extend shelf life to some extent.
[0003] Currently, during the spraying and mixing of dried strawberries, the accumulation of dried strawberries at the bottom takes a long time to reach the top layer and come into contact with the syrup, which easily leads to uneven syrup coating on the surface of the dried strawberries and reduces the quality of the dried strawberries after spraying. To address this, we propose a dried strawberry spraying machine. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a strawberry spraying machine that can quickly turn the strawberries piled at the bottom to the top during spraying and stirring, which is beneficial for the even contact between the strawberries and the syrup and improves the quality of the sprayed strawberries. This solves the problem that in current methods of spraying and stirring strawberries, the accumulation of strawberries at the bottom takes a long time to be placed on the top layer and come into contact with the syrup, which easily leads to uneven syrup spraying on the surface of the strawberries and reduces the quality of the sprayed strawberries.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a strawberry drying spraying machine, comprising a base, a rotating drum, and a fixed drum. Columns are symmetrically installed on both sides of the upper surface of the base, and a fixed drum is installed on the upper surface of each column. An opening is provided on the front surface of the fixed drum. A hollow shaft is installed inside the fixed drum, and a fixing frame is installed on the outer surface of the hollow shaft, with the end of the fixing frame connected to the inner wall of the rotating drum. A plurality of through holes are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the rotating drum. A plurality of actuating plates are equidistantly installed in a circular array on the inner wall of the rotating drum. A sealing plate is installed on the front surface of the fixed drum via a rotating shaft. A sugar conveying pipe is inserted inside the hollow shaft, and a nozzle is connected to one end of the sugar conveying pipe inside the rotating drum. A sugar discharge valve is connected to the lower surface of the fixed drum.
[0006] Preferably, a rotating motor is mounted on the rear surface of the fixed cylinder, and the output shaft of the rotating motor is connected to the hollow shaft for transmission.
[0007] Preferably, a second L-shaped plate is installed on the outer surface of the sealing plate opposite to the rotating shaft, and a first L-shaped plate is installed on the outer surface of the fixed cylinder opposite to the rotating shaft.
[0008] Preferably, an annular groove is provided on the rear surface of the sealing plate near the edge, and a sealing ring is installed inside the annular groove.
[0009] Preferably, the sealing plate has a placement opening located on its front surface near the upper surface.
[0010] Preferably, the upper surface of the base is provided with a placement groove located below the sugar discharge valve, and a collection box is provided inside the placement groove.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] 1. This utility model, by setting a base, a fixed cylinder, an opening, a sealing plate, a rotating cylinder, a through hole, a fixing frame, a hollow shaft, a toggle plate, a nozzle, and a sugar delivery pipe, achieves the effect of quickly turning the dried strawberries accumulated at the bottom to the top during sugar spraying and stirring, which is conducive to the even contact between the dried strawberries and syrup and improves the quality of the dried strawberries after sugar spraying. The dried strawberries are placed inside the rotating cylinder, and the sealing plate is rotated to close the opening. The hollow shaft drives the rotating cylinder to rotate through the fixing frame. The syrup is transported to the inside of the nozzle through the sugar delivery pipe and sprayed onto the dried strawberries on the upper layer inside the rotating cylinder through the nozzle. During the rotation of the rotating cylinder, the toggle plate moves the dried strawberries at the bottom of the rotating cylinder, causing them to rise and slide onto the upper layer of dried strawberries. This allows the dried strawberries accumulated at the bottom of the rotating cylinder to quickly turn to the top and receive the syrup sprayed by the nozzle. Excess syrup passes through the through hole and is collected inside the fixed cylinder. After the sugar spraying is completed, the sealing plate is rotated to open, and the dried strawberries can be taken out from the opening.
[0013] 2. This utility model achieves the effect of facilitating the collection of excess syrup by setting up a placement groove and a collection box. The collection box is placed inside the placement groove. After the sugar discharge valve is opened, the excess syrup collected inside the fixed cylinder is directly discharged into the collection box through the sugar discharge valve.
[0014] 3. By setting an annular groove and a sealing ring, this utility model achieves the effect of improving the sealing performance between the sealing plate and the fixed cylinder. When the sealing plate rotates to close and seal the opening, the sealing ring inside the annular groove is squeezed by the fixed cylinder and plays a sealing role in the gap between the sealing plate and the fixed cylinder.

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0022] Example 1
[0023] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention proposes a strawberry drying spraying machine, which includes a base 1, a rotating cylinder 4, and a fixed cylinder 8. Columns 2 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the upper surface of the base 1, and the fixed cylinder 8 is installed on the upper surface of the columns 2. An opening 3 is provided on the front surface of the fixed cylinder 8. A hollow shaft 13 is installed inside the fixed cylinder 8 and penetrates the rear surface of the fixed cylinder 8. The two ends of the hollow shaft 13 are located inside and outside the fixed cylinder 8, respectively. A rotating motor 22 is installed on the rear surface of the fixed cylinder 8. The output shaft of the rotating motor 22 is connected to the hollow shaft 13. Pulleys are sleeved on the outer surfaces of both the output shaft of the rotating motor 22 and the hollow shaft 13. The two pulleys are connected by a belt drive, so the output shaft of the rotating motor 22 drives the hollow shaft 13 to rotate.
[0024] A fixing bracket 14 is installed on the outer surface of the hollow shaft 13, and the end of the fixing bracket 14 is connected to the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4. The rotating cylinder 4 is through-holes. A number of through holes 15 are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the rotating cylinder 4. A number of actuating plates 10 are installed in a ring array at equal intervals on the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4. A sealing plate 5 is installed on the front surface of the fixed cylinder 8 through the rotating shaft 20. A second L-shaped plate 16 is installed on the outer surface of the sealing plate 5 away from the rotating shaft 20. A first L-shaped plate 9 is installed on the outer surface of the fixed cylinder 8 away from the rotating shaft 20. After the sealing plate 5 is rotated and closed, the second L-shaped plate 16 is hooked by the first L-shaped plate 9 to limit and fix the closed sealing plate 5. The sealing plate 5 is located near the upper surface of the front surface. A placement port 19 is provided, through which dried strawberries before spraying sugar are placed into the rotating drum 4. An annular groove 18 is provided on the rear surface of the sealing plate 5 near the edge, and a sealing ring 17 is installed inside the annular groove 18. When the sealing plate 5 is rotated to close and block the opening 3, the sealing ring 17 inside the annular groove 18 is squeezed by the fixed cylinder 8, which seals the gap between the sealing plate 5 and the fixed cylinder 8. A sugar delivery pipe 12 is inserted into the hollow shaft 13. The sugar delivery pipe 12 passes through the hollow shaft 13. One end of the sugar delivery pipe 12 located inside the rotating drum 4 is connected to a nozzle 11, which sprays syrup downward. A sugar discharge valve 21 is connected to the lower surface of the fixed cylinder 8.
[0025] In use, the sealing plate 5 is rotated to seal the opening 3. The dried strawberries are placed into the rotating drum 4 through the placement port 19. The hollow shaft 13 drives the rotating drum 4 to rotate through the fixing frame 14. The syrup is transported to the nozzle 11 through the sugar delivery pipe 12 and sprayed onto the dried strawberries on the upper layer inside the rotating drum 4 through the nozzle 11. During the rotation of the rotating drum 4, the agitator plate 10 moves the dried strawberries at the bottom of the rotating drum 4, causing them to rise and slide onto the upper layer of dried strawberries. This allows the dried strawberries accumulated at the bottom of the rotating drum 4 to quickly turn to the upper layer and receive the syrup sprayed by the nozzle 11. Excess syrup passes through the through hole 15 and is collected inside the fixing cylinder 8. After the sugar spraying is finished, the sealing plate 5 is rotated to open, and the dried strawberries can be taken out from the opening 3.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the strawberry drying spraying machine proposed in this utility model, compared with the first embodiment, further includes a placement groove 7 provided on the upper surface of the base 1 below the sugar discharge valve 21, and a collection box 6 provided inside the placement groove 7, with the collection box 6 having an open opening.
[0028] In this embodiment, the collection box 6 is placed inside the placement groove 7. After the sugar discharge valve 21 is opened, the excess syrup collected inside the fixed cylinder 8 is directly discharged into the collection box 6 through the sugar discharge valve 21.
[0029] The above specific embodiments are merely several preferred embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
