Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of drying devices for kudzu buds, and in particular to a device for collecting, processing, draining, and drying kudzu buds. Background Technology

[0002] Nostoc commune, a type of algae belonging to the family Nostocaceae in the class Cyanobacteria, is a high-protein, highly nutritious food. While not a grain, it is called "rice" because of its rice-like shape; the dried grains are round, and the cooked grains are larger than rice grains. It is mainly distributed in Zouma Town, Hefeng County, Hubei Province, growing epiphytically in rice paddies, shallow ponds, lakes, streams, among sand and gravel, or on damp soil.

[0003] Patent document CN219995830U discloses a drying device for processing Nostoc commune, relating to the field of Nostoc commune. The device includes a processing box with supporting rods evenly threadedly connected to the bottom surface. A feeding hopper is welded to the top surface of the processing box. A discharge pipe is obliquely welded to one side of the processing box. An air intake groove is formed on the side of the processing box away from the discharge pipe. An isolation plate is fixedly snapped onto the inner side of the air intake groove. Air vents are evenly formed on the side of the isolation plate. A discharge chute is formed on the side of the processing box away from the air intake groove. A processing channel is vertically formed on the top surface of the processing box. Guide plates are evenly obliquely welded to the inner side of the processing channel. A horizontal groove is formed on the inner side of the processing box. The integrated structure makes it more convenient to use, and the high-temperature air drying structure greatly improves the drying efficiency of the falling Nostoc commune.

[0004] The above-mentioned solution lacks a drainage mechanism in actual use. The freshly collected Nostoc commune contains a large amount of water, which means that the Nostoc commune needs to be drained manually before it is put into the drying process, which increases the workload of the staff. At the same time, the above-mentioned solution dries the Nostoc commune by blowing air while it is falling freely through the guide plate. Since Nostoc commune contains a lot of moisture, the short-term air drying cannot fully remove the moisture contained in the Nostoc commune, and the drying effect is not ideal. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model discloses a device for collecting, processing, draining, and drying Nostoc commune, aiming to solve the technical problem that existing Nostoc commune drying devices lack a draining mechanism.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A device for collecting, processing, draining, and drying Nostoc commune includes a base, a drying pipe and a draining box installed on the top of the base, the draining box and the base being fixedly connected by a support frame plate, a conveying pipe communicating with the inside of the drying pipe embedded on the left side of the draining box, a draining mechanism and a drying mechanism respectively installed inside the draining box and the drying pipe, and a transfer mechanism installed below the base.

[0008] The draining mechanism includes a rotating opening on the lower surface of the drain box, a reciprocating screw rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating opening, a threaded cylinder threaded to one end of the reciprocating screw inside the drain box, a permeable mesh plate fixedly connected to the upper end of the threaded cylinder, a drain outlet embedded on the right side of the drain box, a motor fixedly installed on the right surface of the support frame plate, a rotating rod extending into the drying tube fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor, and a first bevel gear fixedly connected to both the surface of the rotating rod inside the support frame plate and the lower end of the reciprocating screw.

[0009] The drying mechanism includes a ventilation chamber inside the drying tube housing. The inner wall of the ventilation chamber has several air outlets that extend into the drying tube. Three hot air blowers are fixedly installed on the front of the drying tube, and the air outlets of the three hot air blowers extend into the ventilation chamber. An exhaust vent is provided on the back of the drying tube, and a permeable mesh is provided on the inner wall of the exhaust vent.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a limiting frame is fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the drain box and sleeved on the outside of the threaded cylinder. Guide sliders are provided on both sides of the threaded cylinder, and guide grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the limiting frame for the guide sliders to slide.

[0011] By setting a guide slider, the threaded cylinder can drive the permeable mesh plate to move up and down reciprocally through the rotation of the reciprocating screw.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the permeable mesh is inclined, and the inclined end of the permeable mesh corresponds to the position of the conveying pipe. The inner bottom wall of the drain box is provided with a slope that is inclined towards the drain outlet.

[0013] The inclination of the permeable mesh plate facilitates the passage of rice through the conveying pipe, and the slope allows the water inside the drain box to be smoothly discharged through the drain outlet.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the rotating rod is fixedly connected to an auger blade on the surface inside the drying tube.

[0015] By using auger blades, the rice can be pushed smoothly into the drying tube while being agitated, ensuring that the rice is heated and dried fully and evenly.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the transfer mechanism includes a mounting groove formed on the lower surface of the base, a threaded rod rotatably connected to the inner top wall of the mounting groove, a connecting plate threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod, four rollers arranged in a rectangular array mounted on the lower surface of the connecting plate, a transmission opening formed on the right side surface of the base, a crank handle rotatably connected to the inner wall of the transmission opening, and a second bevel gear fixedly mounted on one end of the crank handle extending into the mounting groove and on the surface of the threaded rod.

[0017] The rollers facilitate the transport of the device.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the front and back of the connecting plate are provided with limit sliders, and the inner front wall and inner rear wall of the mounting groove are provided with limit grooves for the limit sliders to slide.

[0019] By setting a limit slider, the connecting plate can drive the roller to move up and down in a directional manner through the rotation of the threaded rod under the guidance of the limit slider.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, a discharge guide plate is fixedly connected to the left end of the drying tube.

[0021] As can be seen from the above, the device for collecting, processing, draining and drying Nostoc commune provided by this utility model has the following technical effects.

[0022] Firstly, freshly harvested *Ge Xian Mi* (a type of medicinal herb) is poured into a draining tank. The permeable mesh plate drains the water while simultaneously filtering out the *Ge Xian Mi*. During this process, the motor drives a reciprocating screw via the first bevel gear. Guided by the guide slider, the threaded cylinder, through the rotation of the reciprocating screw, causes the permeable mesh plate to move up and down, creating a shaking motion. This accelerates the filtration speed of the permeable mesh plate while simultaneously shaking the *Ge Xian Mi* onto the plate through the conveying pipe into the drying pipe, thus completing the draining process. This simple operation reduces the workload of the staff.

[0023] Secondly, during the drying process, the hot air blower blows hot air into the ventilation chamber and through several air outlets into the drying tube to dry the kudzu rice inside. At the same time, the motor drives the auger blades to rotate via a rotating rod. The rotation of the auger blades pushes the kudzu rice through the drying tube and stirs it, allowing it to be fully heated and dried, thus improving the drying effect of the device.

[0024] Thirdly, when the device needs to be moved, turning the crank drives the threaded rod to rotate through the second bevel gear. Under the guidance of the limit slider, the connecting plate can drive the roller to move down through the rotation of the threaded rod until it lifts up and supports the base. At this time, the device can be moved by the roller, which facilitates its rotation. Attached Figure Description
