[0028] like Figure 1-6As shown, a kitchen utensil drying device includes a vertical drying cabinet body 1. The surface of the vertical drying cabinet body 1 is provided with a ventilation component 2 for ventilation during the drying of kitchen utensils inside the cabinet body 1. A hot air component 3 is provided inside the vertical drying cabinet body 1. Sound-absorbing cotton 4 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vertical drying cabinet body 1. A kitchen utensil holding wire mesh frame 5 is provided inside the vertical drying cabinet body 1. An ultraviolet germicidal lamp 6 is provided on the inner wall of the vertical drying cabinet body 1. A water-draining component 7 for water diversion and collection during drying is provided on the bottom surface of the inner wall of the vertical drying cabinet body 1. A water collection box 8 is movably inserted into the vertical drying cabinet body 1. The surface of the vertical drying cabinet body 1 is provided with… The unit includes a lifting assembly 9 for closing the ventilation assembly 2. A closing cover 10 is provided on the surface of the lifting assembly 9, and a sealing structure 11 is provided on the surface of the closing cover 10. Specifically, in this kitchenware drying device, the ventilation assembly 2 and the hot air assembly 3 are arranged so that kitchenware placed in the kitchenware holding frame 5 is dried by the flow of hot air inside the vertical drying cabinet 1. During drying, water drips downwards into the drain assembly 7, which then drains the water back into the water collection box 8 at the bottom. The lifting assembly 9, the closing cover 10, and the sealing structure 11 are located at the air vent of the ventilation assembly 2. When sterilization is performed, the lifting assembly 9 pushes the closing cover 10 up, closing the air vent of the ventilation assembly 2. The sealing structure 11 seals the connection between the closing cover 10 and the vertical drying cabinet 1, effectively preventing external bacteria and dust from entering the interior of the vertical drying cabinet 1. Meanwhile, the interior of the vertical drying cabinet 1 is equipped with sound-absorbing cotton 4, which can reduce the noise generated during the operation of the hot air assembly 3 and optimize the usage environment.

[0029] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the ventilation component 2 includes a vent 201. The surface of the vertical drying cabinet 1 is provided with the vent 201. A frame 202 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vent 201. A dust filter 203 is provided on the inner wall of the frame 202. Specifically, the ventilation component 2 is configured such that the vent 201 is the channel for air to enter and exit, and the frame 202 is used to install and fix the dust filter 203. The dust filter 203 can initially filter the incoming air and block larger particles of dust and other impurities.

[0030] like Figure 5As shown, the hot air assembly 3 includes a miniature fan structure 301. The miniature fan structure 301 is installed inside the vertical drying cabinet 1. An electric heating wire element 302 is installed inside the vertical drying cabinet 1. An air guide frame 303 is installed inside the vertical drying cabinet 1. Specifically, the hot air assembly 3 is configured such that the miniature fan structure 301 blows out the heat generated by the electric heating wire element 302, and the air guide frame 303 evenly guides the hot air into the vertical drying cabinet 1. The hot air poured into the vertical drying cabinet 1 dries the kitchen utensils.

[0031] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown, the water-draining component 7 includes a water-draining groove 701. The bottom inner wall of the vertical drying cabinet 1 has a water-draining groove 701, and a water-draining hole 702 is formed through the bottom inner wall of the water-draining groove 701. Specifically, the water-draining component 7 is designed so that the vertical drying cabinet 1 is equipped with an ultraviolet sterilization lamp 6, which sterilizes the kitchenware after the drying process, ensuring the hygiene and safety of the kitchenware. When there is residual moisture on the kitchenware, the moisture drips down through the kitchenware holding mesh frame 5, collects through the water-draining groove 701, and flows into the water collection box 8 below through the water-draining hole 702, preventing water accumulation inside the vertical drying cabinet 1.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the lifting assembly 9 includes a mounting plate 901. The mounting plate 901 is fixedly connected to the surface of the vertical drying cabinet 1. An electric push rod 902 is fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting plate 901. The telescopic rod of the electric push rod 902 is fixedly connected to a connecting bracket 903, and the closing cover 10 is fixedly connected to the connecting bracket 903 by a nut. Specifically, the mounting plate 901 provides a mounting base for the electric push rod 902, and the electric push rod 902 is connected to the closing cover 10 through the connecting bracket 903. At this time, the closing cover 10 can be disassembled. When sterilization is performed, the electric push rod 902 is activated, pushing the closing cover 10 up to close the ventilation opening 201.

[0033] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the sealing structure 11 includes a connecting groove 1101. The connecting groove 1101 is provided on the surface of the closed cover 10, and a rubber sealing ring 1102 is movably fitted onto the surface of the connecting groove 1101. Specifically, with the sealing structure 11, the rubber sealing ring 1102 is installed in the connecting groove 1101. When the closed cover 10 closes the ventilation opening 201, the rubber sealing ring 1102 plays a sealing role, effectively preventing external bacteria, dust, etc. from entering the interior of the vertical drying cabinet 1. At the same time, since the closed cover 10 can be disassembled, the rubber sealing ring 1102 may be damaged due to friction. In this case, the rubber sealing ring 1102 can also be replaced, thereby ensuring its sealing effect.

[0034] In summary: Equipment installation: First, install the vertical drying cabinet body 1 in a suitable position, ensuring stability. Inside the vertical drying cabinet body 1, install components such as the kitchen utensil holding frame 5, ultraviolet germicidal lamp 6, and sound-absorbing cotton 4. Install the ventilation assembly 2 and hot air assembly 3 in their respective positions on the vertical drying cabinet body 1 according to design requirements, ensuring a tight and stable connection. Install the lifting assembly 9, closing cover 10, and sealing structure 11 at the ventilation opening 201, ensuring smooth operation of the electric push rod 902 and accurate lifting and lowering of the closing cover 10 to seal the ventilation opening 201. Install the drain assembly 7 and water collection box 8 to ensure smooth drainage from the drain trough 701 and drain hole 702.

[0035] Drying Operation: Place the kitchen utensils to be dried and disinfected on the kitchen utensil holding frame 5, and close the cabinet door of the vertical drying cabinet 1. Start the equipment; the hot air assembly 3 begins to work, the electric heating wire element 302 heats up, and the micro fan structure 301 blows hot air through the air guide frame 303 into the interior of the vertical drying cabinet 1 to dry the kitchen utensils. During this process, the dust filter 203 of the ventilation assembly 2 performs preliminary filtration of the incoming air, and water drips through the water leakage assembly 7 into the water collection box 8 at the bottom.

[0036] Sterilization Operation: After drying is complete, the equipment control system automatically activates the ultraviolet sterilization lamp 6. Simultaneously, the electric push rod 902 is activated, pushing the closing cover 10 upward to close the ventilation opening 201. The sealing structure 11 performs its sealing function, ensuring that the connection between the closing cover 10 and the surface of the vertical drying cabinet 1 is sealed, preventing external contaminants from entering. The ultraviolet sterilization lamp 6 sterilizes the kitchen utensils inside the vertical drying cabinet 1.

[0037] Operation complete: After sterilization, the electric push rod 902 lowers the closing cover 10, opening the ventilation vent 201. The user can then open the cabinet door 1 of the vertical drying cabinet and remove the dried and sterilized kitchen utensils. Regularly clean the water collection box 8 to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
