[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This utility model, by setting up a bidirectional screw, a drive bar, and a transmission rod, allows the device to drive the drive bars on both sides to move synchronously in opposite directions via the bidirectional screw, and pushes the slide plate to slide between the side bars through the rotational connection of the transmission rod with the base plate, thereby adjusting the distance between the base plate, the slide plate, and the top plate, making it easier to put in large-volume raw materials and expanding the applicability of the device.

[0016] This utility model, by setting up a release frame, an inner frame, a connecting frame, and an inner groove, allows the device to drive the release frame to move upward via a threaded rod, causing the inner frame and connecting frame to move upward and detach from the inner groove and connecting groove. This pushes the freeze-dried material frozen at the bottom of the inner side of the placement frame upward, so that it no longer adheres to the placement frame, making it easier to pick up the material and improving the working efficiency of the device.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0023] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention; the conditions in the embodiments can be further adjusted according to specific conditions, and simple improvements to the method of the present invention under the concept of the present invention are all within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a vacuum freeze dryer with adjustable partition spacing, including a freeze drying chamber 1. A bottom plate 2 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the freeze drying chamber 1. Side rods 3 are fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate 2 around all four sides. The top of the four side rods 3 is fixedly connected to the same top plate 4. The four side rods 3 are slidably connected to the same slide plate 5. The top of the bottom plate 2, top plate 4 and slide plate 5 are fixedly connected to the top of the slide rail 6. A placement frame 7 is slidably connected to the inner side of the slide rail 6. A bidirectional screw 14 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the slide plate 5. Drive bars 15 are threaded to both ends of the outer side of the bidirectional screw 14. Transmission rods 16 are rotatably connected to both ends of the bottom of the drive bars 15. The bottom ends of the four transmission rods 16 are respectively rotatably connected to the two ends of both sides of the bottom plate 2. A sealing door 18 is hinged to one side of the freeze drying chamber 1. The placement frame 7 includes a side strip 8 fixedly connected to the outer side. The side strip 8 is slidably connected to the inner side of the corresponding slide rail 6. A throttle is fixedly connected to the side of the bidirectional screw 14 near the freeze drying chamber 1. The top of the middle end of the drive bar 15 is tightly fitted to the slide plate 5.

[0025] Open the sealing door 18, rotate the double screw 14 to make the drive bars 15 at both ends move in opposite directions, and push the slide plate 5 to slide up and down between the side bars 3 through the transmission rod 16, thereby adjusting the height of the slide plate 5. Take out the placement frame 7, place the raw materials in each placement frame 7, push the placement frame 7, and close the sealing door 18.

[0026] The rotation of the bidirectional screw 14 drives the drive bars 15 on both sides to move synchronously in opposite directions. The bottom of the drive bars 15 is connected to the base plate 2 via the transmission rod 16, which transmits this driving force to the slide plate 5, pushing the slide plate 5 to slide up and down along the side rod 3. This allows the operator to flexibly adjust the position of the slide plate 5 according to the actual volume and height of the material, thereby providing sufficient space for the material and ensuring that it can be smoothly placed into the freeze-drying chamber 1. This flexibility greatly improves the applicability of the device, enabling it to adapt to various types of materials, whether small granular materials or large block materials, all of which can be effectively processed.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-4 The top of the placement frame 7 has several inner grooves 9 and connecting grooves 10, which are cross-connected. The top of the placement frame 7 is connected to a release frame 11 through the inner grooves 9. The release frame 11 includes several inner frames 12 fixedly connected on the inner side. Several connecting frames 13 with positions adapted to the connecting grooves 10 are fixedly connected between the inner frames 12. The inner frames 12 are snapped into the corresponding inner grooves 9, and the depth of the inner grooves 9 is greater than the thickness of the inner frames 12. The inner frames 12 and the connecting frames 13 are cross-connected. The thickness of the connecting frames 13 is the same as that of the inner frames 12. A freeze dryer with the model number TF-FD-1PF is fixedly connected to the inside of the freeze drying oven 1. A vacuum pump and a extraction pump are fixedly connected to one side of the freeze drying oven 1 from top to bottom.

[0028] The pressure inside the freeze-drying chamber 1 is reduced to the set vacuum level by a vacuum pump, and freeze-drying is carried out by a freeze dryer. The precipitated liquid water is discharged by a pump. After drying, the pressure is restored to normal pressure by a vacuum pump. The sealing door 18 is opened, the placement frame 7 is pulled out, the threaded rod 17 is rotated, and the release frame 11 is raised, so that the inner frame 12 and the connecting frame 13 rise and separate from the inner groove 9 and the connecting groove 10. The freeze dryer is pushed to separate from the placement frame 7 and then removed.

[0029] By rotating the threaded rod 17, the release frame 11 can be driven to move upward, causing the inner frame 12 and the connecting frame 13 to move upward, pushing the freeze-dried material frozen at the bottom of the inner side of the placement frame 7, thereby achieving rapid release of the material. This allows the operator to easily remove the freeze-dried material from the placement frame 7, greatly improving the convenience and efficiency of material removal and enhancing the overall working efficiency of the vacuum freeze dryer. At the same time, this design also reduces the potential damage to the material during the material removal process, ensuring the integrity and quality of the material.

[0030] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: Open the sealing door 18, rotate the bidirectional screw 14 to make the drive bars 15 at both ends move in opposite directions, and push the slide plate 5 to slide up and down between the side bars 3 through the transmission rod 16, thereby adjusting the height of the slide plate 5. Take out the placement frame 7, place the raw material in each placement frame 7, push the placement frame 7, close the sealing door 18, reduce the pressure in the freeze-drying chamber 1 to the set vacuum degree through the vacuum pump, freeze-dry through the freeze dryer, and discharge the precipitated liquid water through the extraction pump. After drying, restore the pressure to normal pressure through the vacuum pump, open the sealing door 18, take out the placement frame 7, rotate the threaded rod 17 to drive the release frame 11 to rise, so that the inner frame 12 and the connecting frame 13 rise and separate from the inner groove 9 and the connecting groove 10, push the freeze dryer to separate it from the placement frame 7, and remove the freeze dryer.

[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
