[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, an integrated dehydration and drying device for vinegar residue includes a drying cylinder 1, a detachable vent plate 2, a vent plate 4, a water receiving structure 3, a base 32, a water tank 33, and a water receiving pipe 31. The drying cylinder 1 is provided with a detachable vent plate 2 for steam discharge. The drying cylinder 1 has an open-top chamber for placing crushed vinegar residue. The vent plate 2 is connected to the side wall of the drying cylinder 1 by bolts or the like during use for steam discharge.
[0026] The vent plate 4 is mounted on the detachable vent plate 2, such as Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the longitudinal section of the anti-escaping plate 4 is designed with a pointed tip. On the one hand, the anti-escaping plate 4 guides the steam and reduces the direct steam outflow, which poses a certain danger to the surrounding workers. On the other hand, it cools the steam, and the cooled steam water will drip down along the anti-escaping plate 4.
[0027] To guide the steam water dripping down the anti-vent plate 4, the water receiving structure 3 and the drying cylinder 1 are detachably connected. Specifically, the water receiving structure 3 is located below the vent plate 2, and the water receiving structure 3 and the anti-vent plate 4 are perpendicularly distributed. The water receiving structure 3 includes a base 32, a water tank 33, and a water receiving pipe 31. The base 32 is detachably connected to the surface of the drying cylinder 1 by bolts or the like. It should be noted that the length of the base 32 is greater than the length of the anti-vent plate 4, and it is used to receive the steam water dripping down the anti-vent plate 4. The water tank 33 is integrally formed on the top of the base 32. The water tank 33 is designed with an incline, and the bottom of the base 32 is connected to a water inlet pipe 31. The water inlet pipe 31 is located at the lowest point of the water tank 33 and is connected to the water tank 33. When in use, the water tank 33 will receive the steam water dripping down the anti-steam plate 4. At the same time, because the water tank 33 is designed with an incline and the water inlet pipe 31 is located at the lowest point of the water tank 33, the water tank 33 will gather the water flow at the lowest point and discharge it through the water inlet pipe 31. In actual use, a water pipe will be fixedly inserted into the bottom of the water inlet pipe 31 for diversion to reduce the phenomenon of steam water dripping everywhere.
[0028] The effect achieved by the entire embodiment is as follows: When in use, crushed vinegar residue is first placed in the drying cylinder 1. During the dehydration process, the detachable vent plate 2 will discharge the steam in the drying cylinder 1. The water tank 33 will receive the steam water dripping down the vent plate 4. At the same time, since the water tank 33 is designed with an inclination and the water inlet pipe 31 is located at the lowest point of the water tank 33, the water tank 33 will gather the water flow at the lowest point and discharge it through the water inlet pipe 31. In actual use, a water pipe will be fixedly inserted into the bottom of the water inlet pipe 31 for guiding the flow and reducing the phenomenon of steam water dripping everywhere. The vent plate 4 guides the steam on the one hand, reducing the direct steam discharge and posing a certain danger to the surrounding workers. On the other hand, it cools the steam, and the cooled steam water will drip down the vent plate 4.
[0029] Example 2
[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, an integrated device for dehydrating and drying vinegar residue has a detachable vent plate 2 with several vent holes 21 inside. The vent holes 21 and the detachable vent plate 2 are integrally molded and designed to discharge steam. The vent holes 21 are connected to the drying cylinder 1.
[0031] Heating structures 11 are connected to both sides of the outside of the drying cylinder 1. Each heating structure 11 contains a heating wire. During use, the heating wire is used to heat the inside of the drying cylinder 1 to achieve dehydration. The two heating structures 11 are symmetrically distributed on the center line of the drying cylinder 1. This symmetrical distribution is used to increase the uniformity of hot air inside the drying cylinder 1.
[0032] The drying cylinder 1 contains a mechanical dehydration module, specifically a twin-screw press. During operation, it uses a variable-pitch screw shaft to extrude and quickly remove free water, reducing the moisture content to 50%-60%. This is existing technology and will not be elaborated further. The drying cylinder 1 also contains a temperature sensor. The core function of the temperature sensor is to convert temperature changes into quantifiable signals such as displacement, voltage, resistance, or radiation intensity, which are then converted into temperature values using physical laws and electronic technology. When selecting a sensor, accuracy, range, response speed, and environmental conditions must be considered. These are also existing technologies and will not be elaborated further. During operation, the mechanical dehydration module performs initial dehydration, followed by heating via the control panel to the heating structure 11. At this time, the temperature sensor detects the temperature inside the drying cylinder 1 and transmits the signal to the control panel in real time. The control panel then controls the heating power of the heating structure 11 in real time to dehydrate and dry the vinegar residue inside the drying cylinder 1.
[0033] The drying cylinder 1 is provided with a water outlet 12, which is used to discharge the water after mechanical dehydration inside the drying cylinder 1. The water outlet 12 extends to the outside of the drying cylinder 1. A sealing cover 13 is detachably connected to the top of the drying cylinder 1. The sealing cover 13 is connected to the drying cylinder 1 through an existing sealing structure to seal the top of the drying cylinder 1.
[0034] The effect achieved by the entire second embodiment is that, during use, the mechanical dehydration module performs preliminary dehydration, and then the heating structure 11 is controlled by the control panel to heat. At this time, the temperature sensor will monitor the temperature inside the drying cylinder 1 and transmit the signal to the control panel in real time. The control panel controls the heating power of the heating structure 11 in real time to dehydrate and dry the vinegar residue inside the drying cylinder 1, and the water outlet 12 is used to discharge the water after mechanical dehydration inside the drying cylinder 1.
[0035] Working principle: When using this integrated vinegar residue dehydration and drying device, an external power supply is used. First, the mechanical dehydration module is used for preliminary dehydration. Then, the heating structure 11 is controlled by the control panel to heat the vinegar residue. At this time, the temperature sensor will detect the temperature inside the drying cylinder 1 and transmit the signal to the control panel in real time. The control panel controls the heating power of the heating structure 11 in real time to dehydrate and dry the vinegar residue inside the drying cylinder 1. The water outlet 12 is used to discharge the water after mechanical dehydration inside the drying cylinder 1.
[0036] Next, the crushed vinegar residue is placed inside the drying cylinder 1. During dehydration, the detachable vent plate 2 will discharge the steam from the drying cylinder 1. The water tank 33 will collect the steam water dripping down the anti-vent plate 4. At the same time, since the water tank 33 is designed with an inclination and the water inlet pipe 31 is located at the lowest point of the water tank 33, the water tank 33 will collect the water flow at the lowest point and discharge it through the water inlet pipe 31. In actual use, a water pipe will be fixedly inserted into the bottom of the water inlet pipe 31 for guiding the flow and reducing the phenomenon of steam water dripping everywhere. The anti-vent plate 4 guides the steam on the one hand, reducing the direct steam discharge and posing a certain danger to the surrounding workers. On the other hand, it cools the steam. The cooled steam water will drip down the anti-vent plate 4, thus completing the work of the integrated vinegar residue dehydration and drying device.
