Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of noodle processing, and in particular to an automatic temperature-controlled drying device for coarse grain noodles. Background Technology
[0002] In the industrial production of whole-grain noodles, wet noodles need to be dried to remove moisture and extend their shelf life. Because whole-grain noodles have low gluten and high fiber content, they are prone to breakage after drying when dried in a hanging manner. Therefore, the drying process for whole-grain noodles typically uses a drawer-type drying method. Specifically, wet noodles are placed in trays and then layered into the drawers of a drying chamber. Heat is mainly transferred through natural convection within the chamber. Noodles at the top of the chamber, being closer to the heat source, are prone to overheating and drying, causing rapid crusting and hindering internal moisture evaporation. Upon cooling, uneven internal and external stress leads to cracks and breakage. Noodles at the bottom, however, are not dried thoroughly due to insufficient heat, resulting in residual moisture and mold growth. These problems reduce the yield of whole-grain noodles in the drying chamber and increase production costs. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to improve the problem of uneven heating of coarse grain noodles in the upper and lower layers of the drying box, which leads to a decrease in the yield of finished products, this application provides an automatic temperature-controlled drying device for coarse grain noodles.
[0004] This application provides an automatic temperature-controlled drying device for coarse grain noodles, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] An automatic temperature-controlled drying device for coarse grain noodles includes a heating component and a drying chamber. The heating component is connected to the interior of the drying chamber. A driving component is installed on the exterior of the drying chamber. A rotating shaft is installed inside the drying chamber. Both ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably mounted on both sides of the drying chamber. The driving component drives and connects to the rotating shaft. Support frames and rotating components are installed at both ends of the rotating shaft. The support frames are installed on the inner wall of the drying chamber, and the rotating components are slidably mounted on the support frames.
[0006] The rotating assembly includes a rotating frame, a connecting member, and a slider. The rotating frame is sleeved on the rotating shaft and has multiple support rods. One end of the connecting member is rotatably connected to the support rod, and the other end is rotatably connected to the slider. The support frame has a slide rail for sliding the slider. A storage box for placing coarse grain noodles is connected to the side of the support rod away from the support frame. An auxiliary rod is rotatably connected to the side of the storage box away from the connecting member, and two adjacent storage boxes are connected through the auxiliary rod.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the drying box provides a drying space for the drying operation. The driving component drives the rotating frame to rotate through the rotating shaft, so that the storage box can achieve circumferential motion. At the same time, the slider slides radially in the slide rail of the support frame, so that the support rod drives the storage box to perform a compound motion of rotation and translation. Adjacent storage boxes are linked by auxiliary rods to form a stable parallelogram structure, ensuring that the storage box always maintains a horizontal posture during movement, reducing the risk of coarse grain noodles spilling due to tilting.
[0008] Optionally, the storage box has a plurality of first ventilation holes arranged on it, and the storage box has a tray for placing the coarse grain noodles inside, and the tray has a plurality of second ventilation holes.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the first vent and the second vent allow the hot air generated by the heating component to penetrate the coarse grain noodles from the bottom and sides of the storage box, accelerating the evaporation of moisture.
[0010] Optionally, the connector includes an auxiliary plate, a first connecting shaft, and a second connecting shaft. The first connecting shaft is mounted on one end of the auxiliary plate, and the second connecting shaft is mounted on the other end. The other end of the first connecting shaft is mounted on the slider, and the other end of the second connecting shaft is mounted on the side of the storage box. The support rod and the auxiliary plate are sleeved on the second connecting shaft.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the auxiliary plate is connected to the slider through the first connecting shaft and to the storage box through the second connecting shaft, forming a rotatable linkage hub; the support rod and the auxiliary plate achieve relative rotation through the second connecting shaft, so that the rotating component maintains its motion flexibility during the combined motion of rotation and translation, ensuring that the power of the rotating frame can be smoothly transmitted to the storage box, and further enhancing the motion stability in conjunction with the constraint of the auxiliary rod.
[0012] Optionally, a temperature sensor is installed inside the drying oven, and a control component is provided on the drying oven. The control component is electrically connected to the temperature sensor and the heating component, respectively.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the temperature sensor monitors the temperature data inside the drying oven in real time and feeds it back to the control component. The control component automatically adjusts the heating component according to the preset drying parameters to achieve precise temperature control.
[0014] Optionally, a dehumidification component is provided at the bottom of the drying chamber, and a humidity sensor is installed inside the drying chamber. The control component is electrically connected to the dehumidification component and the humidity sensor, respectively.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the humidity sensor can monitor the humidity inside the drying oven in real time and convert the humidity data into an electrical signal to be transmitted to the control component. When the humidity exceeds the set threshold, the control component will activate the dehumidification component to quickly discharge the hot and humid air.
[0016] Optionally, the heating assembly includes a blower and a heating chamber, the air outlet of the blower is connected to the heating chamber, and the heating chamber is connected to the drying chamber.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the blower sends outside air into the heating box, where it is heated by the heating wire to form stable hot air, which is then delivered to the drying box to provide a heat source for the drying operation.
[0018] Optionally, a collection chamber is installed on the top of the drying chamber, and the outside of the collection chamber is connected to the output end of the heating chamber. The side of the collection chamber facing the rotating assembly has multiple discharge ports.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the collection bin serves as a temporary storage and distribution space for the heating airflow. The collection bin can receive and evenly store the hot airflow output from the heating box, providing a buffer for the subsequent delivery of a stable hot airflow into the drying box. The discharge port can directionally deliver the hot airflow in the collection bin to different areas within the drying box, allowing the hot airflow to directly act on the coarse grain surface to be dried in each area.
[0020] Optionally, the heating box is equipped with multiple sets of heating wires.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the heating wire generates heat by being energized, which serves as the heat source for the drying process. The arrangement of multiple sets of heating wires can cover a large area inside the heating chamber, ensuring that the air flowing through the heating chamber can absorb heat evenly and form a stable hot airflow, providing a stable drying environment for coarse grain noodles.
[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0023] 1. The heating component in this equipment provides a heat source, and the driving component drives the rotating component to move through the rotating shaft, causing the storage box to rotate and move up and down in the drying chamber. At the same time, the auxiliary rod connects with the adjacent storage boxes to form a parallelogram mechanism, which can keep the storage boxes horizontal. Each storage box circulates through different height areas of the drying chamber. When the storage box moves to the top near the heat source, it briefly receives strong heat, and the surface moisture gradually evaporates without rapid crusting. When the storage box moves to the bottom of the heat source, it continues to dry the internal moisture evenly using residual heat. The driving component continues to operate, and the rotating shaft drives all storage boxes to move continuously, so that the coarse grain noodles complete the entire drying process of heating, moisture evaporation, and residual heat evenness in a dynamic process until the preset drying standard is reached. This avoids local residue and long-term heating of a single area, reduces the occurrence of problems such as overheating and crusting, insufficient drying, and mold, improves the drying uniformity and the yield of coarse grain noodles, and thus reduces production costs.
[0024] 2. The collection chamber receives and evenly stores the hot airflow from the heating chamber, providing a buffer for the subsequent delivery of a stable hot airflow into the drying chamber. The discharge port of the collection chamber directs the hot airflow to different areas within the drying chamber, ensuring that the hot airflow directly affects the coarse grain surface to be dried in each area. Multiple evenly distributed discharge ports ensure uniform distribution of the hot airflow within the drying chamber, covering the entire range of motion of the rotating components. This guarantees that all parts of the coarse grain surface come into contact with the hot airflow during rotation, improving drying uniformity. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0035] This application discloses an automatic temperature-controlled drying device for coarse grain noodles, referring to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The automatic temperature-controlled drying equipment for coarse grain noodles includes a heating component 1 and a drying chamber 2. The heating component 1 is connected to the inside of the drying chamber 2. A driving component 23 is installed on the outside of the drying chamber 2. A rotating shaft 24 is installed inside the drying chamber 2. Both ends of the rotating shaft 24 are rotatably installed on both sides of the drying chamber 2. The driving component 23 drives and connects the rotating shaft 24. Both ends of the rotating shaft 24 are equipped with a support frame 22 and a rotating component 3. The support frame 22 is installed on the inner wall of the drying chamber 2, and the rotating component 3 is slidably installed on the support frame 22.
[0036] The rotating assembly 3 includes a rotating frame 31, a connecting member 4, and a slider 5. The rotating frame 31 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 24. Multiple support rods 311 are evenly arranged on the rotating frame 31. One end of the connecting member 4 is rotatably connected to the support rod 311, and the other end is rotatably connected to the slider 5. A slide rail 221 for sliding the slider 5 is provided on the support frame 22. A storage box 32 for placing coarse grain noodles is connected to the side of the support rod 311 away from the support frame 22. The coarse grain noodles are laid in the storage box 32. An auxiliary rod 34 is rotatably connected to the side of the storage box 32 away from the connecting member 4. Two adjacent storage boxes 32 are connected by the auxiliary rod 34. Adjacent storage boxes 32 form a parallelogram mechanism through the auxiliary rod 34, so that the storage boxes 32 maintain a horizontal posture during movement.
[0037] In this automatic temperature-controlled drying equipment for coarse grain noodles, the heating component 1 is used to generate hot air and deliver it to the inside of the drying chamber 2, providing a heat source for drying coarse grain noodles and accelerating the evaporation of moisture from the wet coarse grain noodles; the drying chamber 2 serves as the working space for drying operations and can accommodate the rotating shaft 24, the support frame 22, and the rotating component 3, forming a stable drying environment. The drying chamber 2 works in conjunction with the heating component 1 to enable the coarse grain noodles placed inside the drying chamber 2 to achieve the drying operation.
[0038] The drive component 23 provides power for the rotation of the rotating shaft 24 and the rotating assembly 3, further realizing the periodic rotation and translation of the storage box 32. The drive component 23 can be an electric motor, which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy and drives the rotating shaft 24 to rotate through a transmission structure, providing power for the entire drying process. Specifically, the transmission structure can be two meshing gears that convert the motor speed into the required speed of the rotating shaft 24. By controlling the speed of the drive component 23 and the settings of the transmission structure, the movement frequency of the storage box 32 can be adjusted to adapt to different process requirements of the drying equipment.
[0039] Rotating shaft 24 is connected to rotating components 3 at both ends. Rotating shaft 24 transmits the rotational power of drive component 23 to the rotating frame 31 of rotating component 3, and also serves as a support shaft for rotating frame 31, ensuring the coaxiality and stability of rotating component 3's movement. Support frame 22 is fixed to the inner wall of drying chamber 2, providing a sliding track for rotating component 3, namely slide rail 221. Slide rail 221 restricts the movement direction of slider 5, and also supports both ends of rotating shaft 24, sharing the weight of rotating component 3. The cooperation between slide rail 221 and slider 5 guides rotating component 3 to move horizontally along the height of drying chamber 2, enabling cyclical movement of storage box 32 in different temperature zones, further achieving uniform drying of coarse grain noodles.
[0040] In the rotating assembly 3, the rotating frame 31 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 24. Connectors 4 and storage boxes 32 are connected to evenly distributed support rods 311. The support rods 311, along with the corresponding connectors 4 and storage boxes 32, move in a circular motion around the center of the rotating shaft 24, converting the rotational power into a combined motion of rotational and radial movement of each storage box 32. The even distribution of the support rods 311 ensures that the storage boxes 32 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction, maximizing the utilization of the drying space. The rotational motion causes the storage boxes 32 to periodically pass through different radial positions in the drying chamber 2, and combined with translational movement, achieves three-dimensional heat contact, allowing the wet coarse grain noodles inside the storage boxes 32 to be dried evenly.
[0041] The connector 4 converts the rotational motion of the rotating frame 31 into the sliding motion of the slider 5 within the slide rail 221. The rotational arrangement of the connector 4 and the slider 5, and the connector 4 and the rotating frame 31, allows the connector 4 to flexibly change its angle during movement, enabling the slider 5 to reciprocate along the slide rail 221. The slider 5 can be inserted into the slide rail 221 of the support frame 22, and through the linkage between the connector 4 and the support rod 311, it slides along the inside of the slide rail 221 under the drive of the rotating frame 31, pushing the rotating component 3 to complete the combined motion of rotation and translation.
[0042] The storage box 32 is used to lay out the wet coarse grain noodles. The storage box 32 is connected to the rotating frame 31 via a support rod 311 and moves together with the rotating component 3. This means that the wet coarse grain noodles in each storage box 32 can be dried at different heights in the drying chamber 2, thus achieving uniform drying. Adjacent storage boxes 32 are hinged together by an auxiliary rod 34 to form a parallelogram mechanism, ensuring that the storage boxes 32 maintain a horizontal posture during rotation and translation, reducing the risk of coarse grain noodles slipping or piling up due to tilting during movement, and improving the reliability of movement.
[0043] In this device, the drive component 23 drives the rotating component 3 to move through the rotating shaft 24, so that the storage box 32 performs a compound motion of rotation and vertical translation in the drying chamber 2. At the same time, the auxiliary rod 34 connects with the two adjacent storage boxes 32 to form a parallelogram mechanism, which can keep the storage box 32 horizontal and, together with the heat source provided by the heating component 1, achieve uniform drying of coarse grain noodles in a dynamic environment.
[0044] Each storage box 32 in this device circulates through different height zones of the drying chamber 2, including high-temperature and low-temperature zones. When the storage box 32 moves to the top near the heat source, it briefly receives strong heat, and the surface moisture gradually evaporates without rapid crusting. When the storage box 32 moves to the bottom of the heat source, it continues to dry the internal moisture evenly using residual heat. The drive component 23 continues to operate, and the rotating shaft 24 drives all the storage boxes 32 to move continuously, so that the coarse grains complete the entire drying process of heating, moisture evaporation, and balanced residual heat in a dynamic process until the preset drying standard is reached. This avoids local residue and long-term heating of a single area, reducing the occurrence of problems such as overheating and crusting, insufficient drying, and mold.
[0045] The dynamic movement of the built-in wet coarse grain noodle storage box 32 allows for continuous renewal of hot air on the noodle surface, accelerating moisture evaporation, reducing the formation of a hard crust on the surface, and lowering the risk of cracks caused by uneven internal and external stress. This solves the problem of uneven drying between the upper and lower layers in traditional drying methods, improves drying uniformity and the yield of coarse grain noodles, and thus reduces production costs.
[0046] Specifically, the heating component 1 includes a blower 11 and a heating chamber 12. The air outlet of the blower 11 is connected to the heating chamber 12, and the heating chamber 12 is connected to the drying chamber 2. The blower 11 serves as an airflow power source and can provide a stable airflow. The blower 11 generates forced airflow through the rotation of its blades, which delivers external air or recirculated air into the heating chamber 12. The operating status of the blower 11, such as wind speed and air volume, can be adjusted by the control component to match different drying requirements.
[0047] Heating chamber 12 provides a heat source for drying chamber 2. Heating elements, such as electric heating tubes or heat exchangers, are installed inside heating chamber 12. These elements heat the airflow input by blower 11, creating high-temperature hot air to provide a heat source for the drying operation of drying chamber 2. The power and temperature of the heating elements can be precisely adjusted via a control component, enabling precise control of the drying temperature. For noodles with different formulas and moisture levels, the control component allows the heating elements to be adapted to different drying temperature requirements, improving the versatility of the equipment.
[0048] In this application, multiple sets of heating wires are installed inside the heating chamber 12. The heating wires are the heating elements of the heating assembly 1, which generate heat by passing electricity, serving as the heat source for the drying process. The distribution of multiple sets of heating wires can cover a large area inside the heating chamber 12, ensuring that the air flowing through the heating chamber 12 can absorb heat evenly, forming a stable hot airflow, providing a stable drying environment for the coarse grain noodles, and reducing problems such as surface crusting and internal moisture residue caused by uneven temperature.
[0049] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The top of the drying chamber 2 is equipped with a collection chamber 21, which is connected to the output end of the heating chamber 12. Multiple discharge ports 211 are provided on the side of the collection chamber 21 facing the rotating component 3. The collection chamber 21 serves as a temporary storage and distribution space for the heated airflow. It receives and evenly stores the hot airflow output from the heating chamber 12, providing a buffer for the subsequent delivery of a stable hot airflow into the drying chamber 2. The discharge ports 211 can directionally deliver the hot airflow from the collection chamber 21 to different areas within the drying chamber 2, allowing the hot airflow to directly act on the coarse grain surface to be dried in each area. The even distribution of multiple discharge ports 211 ensures that the hot airflow is evenly distributed within the drying chamber 2, covering the movement range of the rotating component 3 and ensuring that all parts of the coarse grain surface come into contact with the hot airflow during rotation, thus improving drying uniformity.
[0050] To achieve automatic temperature control, a temperature sensor is installed inside the drying chamber 2. A control component is mounted on the drying chamber 2, and the control component is electrically connected to both the temperature sensor and the heating component 1. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the drying chamber 2 in real time and converts the temperature signal into an electrical signal, which is then fed back to the control component. The control component receives the electrical signal from the temperature sensor, compares it with a preset temperature threshold, and automatically adjusts the operating status of the heating component 1 (such as the power of the heating wire and the airflow of the blower 11). This structure can dynamically adjust the heating intensity based on real-time temperature data, achieving automatic temperature stability within the drying chamber 2, avoiding the lag and errors of manual intervention, and ensuring that the coarse grain noodles are dried uniformly under stable temperature conditions.
[0051] A dehumidification component is installed at the bottom of the drying chamber 2, and a humidity sensor is installed inside the drying chamber 2. The control component is electrically connected to the dehumidification component and the humidity sensor, respectively. The dehumidification component is used to remove moisture from the drying chamber 2. When the coarse grain noodles evaporate into water vapor during the drying process, the dehumidification component can discharge this water vapor from the drying chamber 2, reducing the humidity inside the chamber. This effectively prevents the humidity inside the drying chamber 2 from becoming too high, avoiding the noodles from reabsorbing moisture due to moisture accumulation, which would affect the drying effect. At the same time, it can also reduce the mold problem caused by the humid environment, ensuring the quality and storage period of the noodles.
[0052] A humidity sensor monitors the humidity inside the drying chamber 2 in real time and converts the humidity data into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted to the control component. The control component receives the humidity signal from the sensor, compares it with a preset humidity threshold, and controls the operation of the dehumidification component based on the comparison result, such as turning it on, off, or adjusting the dehumidification power, thus achieving intelligent control of the humidity inside the drying chamber 2. Simultaneously, the heating component 1 continuously supplies hot air, forming a highly efficient cycle of heating, evaporation, and dehumidification. Operators can flexibly adjust the humidity according to the different types of coarse grain noodles and the requirements of each drying stage, improving the quality and efficiency of the drying process. A control panel 25 is installed outside the drying chamber 2, allowing for adjustments to humidity, temperature thresholds, and other parameters.
[0053] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the rotating assembly 3, the connecting member 4 includes an auxiliary plate 41, a first connecting shaft 42, and a second connecting shaft 43. The first connecting shaft 42 is mounted on one end of the auxiliary plate 41, and the second connecting shaft 43 is mounted on the other end. The other end of the first connecting shaft 42 is mounted on the slider 5, and the other end of the second connecting shaft 43 is mounted on the side of the storage box 32. A support rod 311 and the auxiliary plate 41 are sleeved on the second connecting shaft 43. The auxiliary plate 41 provides mounting positions for the first connecting shaft 42 and the second connecting shaft 43, ensuring the stability of the connecting member 4 structure and enabling effective force transmission between the slider 5 and the storage box 32.
[0054] The first connecting shaft 42 connects the auxiliary plate 41 and the slider 5 together, realizing the rotational connection between the auxiliary plate 41 and the slider 5. The first connecting shaft 42 enables the auxiliary plate 41 to adjust its angle accordingly as the slider 5 slides on the slide rail 221, ensuring the flexibility of movement between the slider 5 and the auxiliary plate 41. This allows the slider 5 to smoothly drive the auxiliary plate 41 to move on the slide rail 221, thereby driving the storage box 32 to move, and avoiding the impact of jamming at the connection point on the operation of the entire rotating assembly 3.
[0055] The second connecting shaft 43 connects the auxiliary plate 41 to the storage box 32, enabling the storage box 32 to move with the swing of the auxiliary plate 41. On the other hand, the second connecting shaft 43 is fitted with a support rod 311 and the auxiliary plate 41, forming a linkage structure between the support rod 311, the auxiliary plate 41, and the storage box 32. This ensures the coordinated movement of each part of the rotating component 3, allowing the storage box 32 to maintain a relatively stable posture during rotation and translation. It also ensures the synchronization of movement between the support rod 311 and the storage box 32, avoiding equipment failure or noodle spillage caused by inconsistent movement.
[0056] refer to Figure 4The storage box 32 has multiple first ventilation holes 321 arranged on it, and a tray 33 for placing coarse grain noodles is provided inside the storage box 32. The tray 33 has multiple second ventilation holes 331. The first ventilation holes 321 are evenly distributed on the surface of the storage box 32, providing a circulation channel for hot air in the drying chamber 2, allowing hot air to smoothly enter the storage box 32 and ensuring full contact between the hot air and the coarse grain noodles inside the storage box 32, improving heat conduction efficiency, and accelerating the removal of moisture inside the storage box 32, reducing the risk of noodles becoming damp, sticky, or moldy.
[0057] The second ventilation hole 331 is formed on the surface of the tray 33, directly acting on the area where the coarse grain noodles are placed. This allows hot air to penetrate the noodle layer and contact the noodles from the bottom up, while simultaneously allowing the moisture evaporated from the noodles to escape through the holes, thereby improving the uniformity of drying. The tray 33 is detachably installed inside the storage box 32 for easy loading and cleaning.
[0058] The implementation process of an automatic temperature-controlled drying device for coarse grain noodles according to an embodiment of this application is as follows:
[0059] Feeding stage: The wet coarse grain noodles to be dried are laid out in the noodle tray 33, and the noodle tray 33 is placed in the storage box 32.
[0060] Dynamic drying stage: Drive component 23 is started, rotating shaft 24 drives rotating frame 31 to rotate, connecting component 4 pushes slider 5 to reciprocate along slide rail 221, so that storage box 32 circulates in the drying chamber 2. Each storage box 32 circulates in different areas in the drying chamber 2 to achieve corresponding heat contact.
[0061] Hot air circulation: The blower 11 sends ambient air or circulating air into the heating box 12. After being heated to the preset temperature by the heating wire, the hot air enters the drying box 2 through the top of the drying box 2 and passes through the first vent 321 of the storage box 32 and the second vent 331 of the tray 33, making full contact with the noodles, removing surface moisture and heating the inside.
[0062] Dehumidification and temperature control stage: The humidity sensor detects the humidity inside the drying oven 2 in real time. When the humidity exceeds the threshold, the control component starts the dehumidification component to exhaust the hot and humid air outside the oven, while introducing dry fresh air or circulating dry airflow. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature inside the oven is higher than the set value, the control component reduces the heating wire power or increases the air volume to accelerate heat dissipation. When the temperature is too low, the heating power is increased.
[0063] Discharge stage: When the moisture content of the noodles drops to the target value, the drive component 23 stops, the rotating shaft 24 stops rotating, and the tray 33 in the storage box 32 is taken out manually or mechanically, and the dried noodles enter the next stage.
[0064] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
