[0002] As is well known, kelp is a highly nutritious seafood. Kelp is a brown algae with a brown thallus. Kelp consists of three parts: the holdfast, the stipe, and the blades. The holdfast is forked and used to attach to rocks on the seabed; the stipe is short, thick, and cylindrical; and the blades are narrow and ribbon-shaped.
[0003] Currently, naturally growing kelp is scarce, and it mainly relies on artificial cultivation. The artificial cultivation method involves setting up multiple rows of cultivation racks consisting of numerous floating structures in the sea. Several seedling ropes are tied between every two rows of racks, and the kelp grows on these ropes. Once the kelp matures, fishermen use small boats to dredge it from the sea, transport it ashore, and then process it.
[0004] Fresh kelp is typically dried to produce dried kelp. The drying process can be referenced in utility model patents CN216668237U and CN216662198U. The drying process usually takes place in a drying room equipped with a conveyor chain that allows the kelp to move, enabling continuous batch processing. Alternatively, fresh kelp can also be placed in the drying room using other methods.
[0005] Referring to the utility model patents with authorization announcement numbers CN213273484U and CN220403034U, the drying box has a limited capacity for drying seaweed and cannot meet the needs of large-scale drying operations.
[0006] In summary, how to improve the drying effect of fresh kelp in the drying room, increase operational efficiency, enhance automation, and meet the needs of efficient large-scale drying operations is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

The frame is connected to a lifting mechanism, which is used to raise or lower the positioning frame of the first group of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 (that is, to raise or lower the first group of Y-axis rotating rollers 505). In the initial state, the plane where the first group of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 is located is lower than the plane where the first group of X-axis rotating rollers 504 is located. The second group of Y-axis rotating rollers 506 is connected to the intermediate frame 502, and the second group of Y-axis rotating roller drive mechanism is connected to the intermediate frame 502.

The second group of X-axis rotating rollers 507 is connected to the rear frame 503. The second set of X-axis rotating roller drive mechanisms is connected to the rear frame 503. This mechanism drives the second set of X-axis rotating rollers 507 to rotate. The third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 508 is connected to the third set of Y-axis rotating roller positioning frames. The second lifting mechanism is also connected to the third set of Y-axis rotating roller positioning frames, allowing the third set of Y-axis rotating roller positioning frames to rise or fall (i.e., allowing the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 508 to rise or fall). Initially, the plane containing the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 508 is lower than the plane containing the second set of X-axis rotating rollers 507. Baffle 1 509 is fixedly connected to the front frame 501, and baffle 2 510 is fixedly connected to the rear frame 503.When the lifting mechanism 1 actuates, causing the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 to rise, the plane containing the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 will be on the same horizontal plane as the plane containing the second set of Y-axis rotating rollers 506, and at this time, the plane containing the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 will be higher than the plane containing the first set of X-axis rotating rollers 504.

The front frame 501 is located inside the housing 101 of the drying chamber 100, and the front frame 501 is close to the heating tube 103.
[0060] There is a gap between the input end of the second chain conveyor 700 and the rear frame 503, which is used to provide opening and closing space for the fourth telescopic sealing door installed at the outlet 301.
[0061] refer to Figure 7 , Figure 26 and Figure 28 A first lifting turntable 3000 is provided at the intersection of the output end of the second chain conveyor 700 and the input end of the intermediate chain conveyor 800. The first lifting turntable 3000 is equipped with a platform, a lifting mechanism, and a rotating mechanism. The lifting mechanism can raise or lower the platform, and the rotating mechanism can rotate the platform. A second lifting turntable 4000 is provided at the intersection of the output end of the intermediate chain conveyor 800 and the input end of the first chain conveyor 600. The structure of the second lifting turntable 4000 is the same as that of the first lifting turntable 3000.
[0062] The working process of the above-mentioned intelligent drying system is described below:
[0063] like Figure 29As shown, the material rack 1 includes a bottom frame 1-1, a top frame 1-2, side frames 1-3 and 1-4, a left support plate 1-5, and a right support plate 1-6. The bottom frame 1-1, top frame 1-2, side frames 1-3, and side frames 1-4 are connected together, making the entire material rack 1 open from front to back. The left support plate 1-5 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the side frame 1-3, and the right support plate 1-6 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the side frame 1-4. The left support plate 1-5 and right support plate 1-6 are arranged opposite each other and on the same horizontal plane, forming one layer of support structure. As can be seen from the figure, three layers of support structure are set. It should be noted that the three-layer support structure is just an example; more layers of support structure can be set. The bottom frame 1-1, top frame 1-2, side frames 1-3, and side frames 1-4 form a frame structure, which facilitates ventilation and drying, improving work efficiency.
[0064] First step, refer to Figure 7 Material rack 1 is located on the intermediate chain conveyor 800; Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 12 The feeding device 1000 is located next to the material rack 1.
[0065] The second step involves the automatic feeding operation of the feeding device 1000. The specific process is as follows:
[0066] Step S201: Start the baffle-type inclined conveyor 1100. Workers place a kelp placement board onto the baffle-type inclined conveyor 1100. Fresh kelp awaiting drying is placed on the kelp placement board. As the baffle-type inclined conveyor 1100 is lifted, the kelp placement board 8 is transferred to the horizontal conveyor 1200. Figure 12 As shown.
[0067] Step S202, refer to Figure 30Initially, the first push plate 1030 and the second push plate 1031 are in a naturally drooping state. The controller issues a command to activate the first electric push rod 1028 and the second electric push rod 1029. The telescopic rod of the first electric push rod 1028 extends forward, and the telescopic rod of the second electric push rod 1029 extends forward. During the forward movement of the first push plate 1030, its lower end touches the seaweed placement plate 8 and is forced to rotate upward at a certain angle. When the first push plate 1030 and the second push plate 1031 move behind the seaweed placement plate 8, they return to their drooping state. Then, the controller commands the first electric push rod 1028... When the telescopic rod of the second electric push rod 1029 retracts, the first push plate 1030 and the second push plate 1031 move backward. The upper part of the first push plate 1030 abuts against the telescopic rod of the first electric push rod 1028, and similarly, the upper part of the second push plate 1031 abuts against the telescopic rod of the second electric push rod 1029. The lower end of the first push plate 1030 pushes the kelp placement plate 8 towards the first horizontal support plate 1034, and the lower end of the second push plate 1031 pushes the kelp placement plate 8 towards the second horizontal support plate 1035. Thus, the kelp placement plate 8 moves horizontally onto the first horizontal support plate 1034 and the second horizontal support plate 1035. (Reference) Figure 31 The first horizontal support plate 1034 and the second horizontal support plate 1035 support the kelp placement plate 8.
[0068] In step S203, the controller instructs the first rotary cylinder 1032 and the second rotary cylinder 1033 to actuate, causing the first horizontal support plate 1034 and the second horizontal support plate 1035 to rotate downwards by 90°, allowing the kelp placement plate 8 to fall freely onto the support plate 1017. If the position of the kelp placement plate 8 supported by the first horizontal support plate 1034 and the second horizontal support plate 1035 deviates, the first guide plate 1036 and the second guide plate 1037 can guide the freely falling kelp placement plate 8, guiding its orientation so that it falls accurately onto the support plate 1017.
[0069] In step S204, the controller instructs the telescopic drive motor 1018 to extend the tray 1017 forward (towards the material rack 1), and the tray 1017, carrying the seaweed placement plate 8, enters the material rack 1. Figure 13 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 As shown. Reference Figure 32 The tray 1017 is located above the support structure formed by the left support plate 1-5 and the right support plate 1-6. At this time, the kelp placement plate 8 has not yet come into contact with the left support plate 1-5 and the right support plate 1-6.
[0070] In step S205, the controller instructs the lifting drive motor 1007 to operate, causing the lifting plate 1016 to descend. The lifting plate 1016, carrying the support plate 1017, descends, and the kelp placement plate 8 rests on the left support plate 1-5 and the right support plate 1-6. The left support plate 1-5 and the right support plate 1-6 support the kelp placement plate 8 upwards, and the fresh kelp 9 is placed on the kelp placement plate 8. The support plate 1017 separates from the kelp placement plate 8. Figure 33 As shown.
[0071] In step S206, the controller commands the telescopic drive motor 1018 to work, causing the tray 1017 to retract backward (remove from the material rack 1). At this time, a kelp placement plate 8 carrying fresh kelp 9 is placed into the material rack 1.
[0072] Using the above method, seaweed placement boards containing fresh seaweed can also be placed on the second and third layers of material rack 1.
[0073] Third step, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 28 The controller instructs the intermediate chain conveyor 800 to operate, thereby moving the material rack 1 containing fresh seaweed horizontally towards the first chain conveyor 600. When the material rack 1 is above the second lifting turntable 4000, the controller instructs the second lifting turntable 4000 to operate. The platform of the second lifting turntable 4000 rises, lifting the material rack 1 upwards, causing it to detach from the intermediate chain conveyor 800. Then, the platform of the second lifting turntable 4000 rotates 90°, causing the material rack 1 to rotate 90°. Finally, the platform of the second lifting turntable 4000 descends, and the material rack 1 simultaneously presses against both the intermediate chain conveyor 800 and the first chain conveyor 600. Figure 28 As shown. Then, the operation of the first chain conveyor 600 causes the material rack 1 to move horizontally toward the first material rack conveyor 400.
[0074] Fourthly, under the controller's command, the third telescopic sealing door installed at inlet 201 of the input transition box 200 opens, as per the reference. Figure 7 , Figure 26The material rack 1 containing fresh kelp is moved horizontally onto the first set of X-axis rotating rollers 404. The first set of X-axis rotating rollers 404 rotates, moving the material rack 1 horizontally until it is entirely positioned on the first set of X-axis rotating rollers 404 and blocked by the first baffle 406. Then, the third telescopic sealing door closes, while the second telescopic sealing door 101-4 opens. Next, the controller commands the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 405 to rise, lifting the material rack 1 upwards. Simultaneously, the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 408 rises. Then, the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 405 rotates, moving the material rack horizontally onto the second set of Y-axis rotating rollers 407. Then, the second set of Y-axis rotating rollers 407 and the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 408 rotate, moving the material rack horizontally onto the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 408. The entire material rack is pressed onto the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 408, and the second baffle 410 blocks the material rack. Then, the second telescopic sealing door 101-4 closes. Then, the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 408 and the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 405 descend simultaneously, pressing the entire material rack against the second set of X-axis rotating rollers 409. Then, the controller instructs the second set of X-axis rotating rollers 409 to rotate, translating the material rack to the input end of the third chain conveyor 900. Then, the third chain conveyor 900 operates, and the material rack moves from the input end of the third chain conveyor 900 to the right to the output end of the third chain conveyor 900. During the translation of the material rack under the action of the third chain conveyor 900, the seaweed inside the material rack is dried.
[0075] Fifth, when the material rack moves to the output end of the third chain conveyor 900, it continues to move onto the first set of X-axis rotating rollers 504. The rotation of the first set of X-axis rotating rollers 504 causes the material rack to detach from the third chain conveyor 900, and the entire material rack presses onto the first set of X-axis rotating rollers 504, with the material rack blocked by baffle 509. Then, under the command of the controller, the first telescopic sealing door 101-3 opens. Then, the controller commands the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 and the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 508 to rise simultaneously. The first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 lifts the material rack upward; then, the rotation of the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 moves the material rack horizontally onto the second set of Y-axis rotating rollers 506, and the rotation of the second set of Y-axis rotating rollers 506 moves the material rack horizontally towards the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 508. The third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 508 rotates, and the entire material rack presses onto the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 508. Then, the controller commands the first set of Y-axis rotating rollers 505 and the third set of Y-axis rotating rollers 508 to descend simultaneously, pressing the material rack onto the second set of X-axis rotating rollers 507. Then, the first telescopic sealing door 101-3 closes, while the fourth telescopic sealing door at outlet 301 opens. Then, the second set of X-axis rotating rollers 507 rotates, moving the material rack containing dried kelp towards the second chain conveyor 700, thus moving the entire material rack onto the second chain conveyor 700. Then, the fourth telescopic sealing door at outlet 301 closes.
[0076] Step 6: When the material rack containing dried kelp moves horizontally above the first lifting turntable 3000, the controller commands the first lifting turntable 3000 to operate. The platform of the first lifting turntable 3000 rises, lifting the material rack upwards and disengaging it from the second chain conveyor 700. Then, the platform of the first lifting turntable 3000 rotates 90°, causing the material rack to rotate 90° as well. Then, the platform of the first lifting turntable 3000 descends, and the material rack rests solely on the intermediate chain conveyor 800. The intermediate chain conveyor 800 then operates, and the material rack moves horizontally along it. When the material rack containing dried kelp moves horizontally to the side of the unloading device 2000... Figure 7 The material rack 2 shown in the image is located next to the feeding device 2000. The controller commands the intermediate chain conveyor 800 to stop operating. Sensors can be set to detect when the material rack containing dried kelp moves to the side of the feeding device 2000 and send a feedback signal to the controller.
[0077] Step 7: The controller instructs the feeding device 200 to perform automatic feeding. The specific process is as follows:
[0078] Step S701, the initial states of front paws 2030, 2031, hind paws 2032, and hind paws 2033 are as follows: Figure 24 As shown; the telescopic drive motor 2013 operates to extend the telescopic plate 2027 forward (towards the material rack 2), the telescopic plate 2027 extends into the material rack 2, and the telescopic plate 2027 is located above the kelp placement plate 8.
[0079] In step S702, the front claw motion drive cylinder 2034 and the rear claw motion drive cylinder 2035 operate simultaneously. The extension rods of the front claw motion drive cylinder 2034 and the rear claw motion drive cylinder 2035 extend, the front claw connecting shaft 2028 rotates by a certain angle, and the rear claw connecting shaft 2029 rotates by a certain angle. Consequently, both front claws rotate downwards by a certain angle, and both rear claws also rotate downwards by a certain angle. Figure 25 As shown, the two front claws are engaged with the edge of the kelp placement plate 8, and the two hind claws are engaged with the edge of the kelp placement plate 8.
[0080] In step S703, the telescopic drive motor 2013 operates to retract the telescopic plate 2027 backward, and the two front claws and two rear claws take the kelp placement plate 8 out of the material rack 2. The kelp placement plate 8 containing dried kelp moves to the initial position, and the kelp placement plate 8 is located above the conveyor belt 2036.
[0081] In step S704, the lifting drive motor 2009 operates to lower the lifting plate 2004 to a position close to the conveyor belt 2036.
[0082] In step S705, the front claw motion drive cylinder 2034 and the rear claw motion drive cylinder 2035 operate simultaneously. The telescopic rods of the front claw motion drive cylinder 2034 and the rear claw motion drive cylinder 2035 retract, causing both front claws to rotate upwards to their initial state and both rear claws to rotate upwards to their initial state. The two front claws and two rear claws then release the kelp placement plate 8, causing the kelp placement plate 8 to fall onto the conveyor belt 2036 with the dried kelp. The conveyor belt 2036 then further transfers the kelp placement plate 8 for subsequent collection of the dried kelp.
[0083] In step S706, the lifting drive motor 2009 operates to raise the lifting plate 2004, preparing to retrieve the next seaweed placement plate from the material rack 2.
[0084] Remove all the seaweed placement plates 8 from the material rack using the above steps.
[0085] Step 8: The controller instructs the intermediate chain conveyor 800 to operate, moving the empty material rack 2 towards the first chain conveyor 600. When the empty material rack 2 moves to the side of the feeding device 1000, the intermediate chain conveyor 800 stops operating, and the empty material rack 2 remains next to the feeding device 1000, ready for feeding. Sensors can be set to detect when the empty material rack 2 moves to the side of the feeding device 1000 and send a feedback signal to the controller.
[0086] Step 9: The feeding device 1000 performs automatic feeding operations.
[0087] As can be seen, the material racks are continuously recycled, and can hold a large quantity of fresh kelp. The entire drying system enables efficient, large-scale kelp drying operations. It is evident that automatic feeding and unloading are achieved, reducing manpower consumption, labor intensity, and labor costs, while improving operational efficiency. The automatic feeding and unloading process is reliable, stable, time-saving, labor-saving, and easy to operate.
[0088] Setting up an input transition box 200, an output transition box 300, and a telescopic sealing door helps to ensure the temperature stability inside the drying chamber 100, preventing the temperature inside the drying chamber 100 from dropping due to the material rack being output from or input to the drying chamber 100.
