[0034] See Figures 1-5 This embodiment of the mulberry processing equipment integrates pretreatment, dispersing, and drying functions, enabling continuous processing of mulberry residue from feeding to finished dried product. It achieves efficient material transport and processing, improves production efficiency, and significantly reduces the volume and weight of the residue, facilitating storage and transportation. Simultaneously, it can perform pretreatment before drying, effectively dispersing clumps of mulberry residue. Combined with heating wires and an exhaust fan 55, it performs preliminary moisture removal, further dispersing the residue and ensuring uniform heating during subsequent drying. In this embodiment, it mainly includes a support frame 1, on which a pretreatment box 2 is fixedly mounted. A conveyor cylinder 8 is connected to the top of the pretreatment box 2, and a discharge hopper 4 is also connected to the top of the conveyor cylinder 8. The discharge hopper 4 is fixedly mounted on the top of the conveyor cylinder 8 and is connected to it. Mulberry residue is poured into the discharge hopper 4, and the residue in the discharge hopper 4 enters the pretreatment box 2 through the conveyor cylinder 8.
[0035] The pretreatment box 2 has a rectangular structure that is smaller at the top and larger at the bottom. The bottom of the pretreatment box 2 is inclined, and a discharge port 3 is opened on the bottom side of the pretreatment box 2. The discharge port 3 is located at the lowest point of the pretreatment box 2. The mulberry residue in the pretreatment box 2 moves to the discharge port 3 through the inclined bottom surface and is discharged out through the discharge port 3.
[0036] A spiral auger 9 is coaxially rotatably mounted inside the conveying cylinder 8. A first bevel gear 10 is coaxially fixed at the bottom end of the spiral auger 9. A first motor 11 is fixedly mounted outside the pretreatment box 2. A second bevel gear 12, meshing with the first bevel gear 10, is fixedly mounted at the output end of the first motor 11. By controlling the first motor 11 to operate, the spiral auger 9 is driven to rotate through the first bevel gear 10 and the second bevel gear 12, thereby discharging the mulberry residue in the discharge hopper 4 into the pretreatment box 2.
[0037] To achieve pretreatment of mulberry pomace. See [link / reference] Figures 1-3 In this embodiment, a dispersing unit 5 is provided inside the pretreatment box 2. The dispersing unit 5 includes a vertically rotating shaft 51 located below the auger 9 inside the pretreatment box 2. The shaft 51 is coaxial with the auger 9. Multiple crushing rollers 52 are horizontally arranged on the upper part of the shaft 51. A second motor 53 that drives the shaft 51 to rotate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the pretreatment box 2. An exhaust pipe 54 is fixedly installed on the side of the pretreatment box 2 opposite to the discharge port 3. The exhaust pipe 54 is located at the lower part of the pretreatment box 2. An exhaust fan 55 is fixedly installed inside the exhaust pipe 54. A heating wire 56 is installed inside the exhaust pipe 54 on the side of the exhaust fan 55. A baffle 57 that blocks the exhaust pipe 54 is fixedly installed inside the pretreatment box 2. At least one exhaust port 58 is opened on the upper part of the pretreatment box 2.
[0038] The second motor 53 is controlled to operate, driving the rotating shaft 51 to rotate. The rotating shaft 51 then causes the crushing roller 52 to rotate, breaking up the lumpy mulberry residue falling from the conveying cylinder. During this process, the exhaust fan 55 and heating wire 56 are controlled to operate, drawing external air into the pretreatment box 2 for heating, performing preliminary drying of the mulberry residue, and breaking it up to ensure uniform heating during subsequent drying. Simultaneously, baffles 57 prevent the broken mulberry residue from falling into the exhaust pipe 54, and moisture is discharged from the exhaust port 58, the conveying cylinder 8, and the discharge port 3.
[0039] To achieve the drying of mulberry residue, in this embodiment, see... Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5A drying cylinder 6 is mounted on the support 1 on the side of the discharge port 3. A support frame 13 is fixedly mounted on the top of the support 1 on the side of the pretreatment box 2, and the drying cylinder 6 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 13. The drying cylinder 6 is a cylindrical structure with openings at both ends and inclined, and the highest point of the drying cylinder 6 is lower than the lowest point of the pretreatment box 2. A conveying plate 14 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the discharge port 3, and the other end of the conveying plate 14 extends into the highest point of the drying cylinder 6. The conveying plate 14 is an arc-shaped plate with its opening facing upwards. The mulberry residue discharged from the discharge port 3 enters the higher part of the drying cylinder 6 through the conveying plate 14. A baffle ring 15 is coaxially fixedly mounted on the highest point of the drying cylinder 6. The baffle ring 15 prevents the mulberry residue that has entered the higher part of the drying cylinder 6 from falling out of the drying cylinder 6. A third motor 16 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 13. A pulley 17 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the third motor 16. The pulley 17 is also fixedly mounted on the drying cylinder 6 and is coaxially arranged with the drying cylinder 6. A belt 18 is sleeved on the pulley 17. The operation of the third motor 16 is controlled to drive the drying cylinder 6 to rotate through the belt 18 and the pulley 17, thereby moving the mulberry residue inside the drying cylinder 6.
[0040] The drying cylinder 6 is equipped with a drying unit 7. The drying unit 7 includes an electromagnetic coil 71 mounted on the side of the drying cylinder 6 facing the pretreatment box 2, and a shield 72 covering the electromagnetic coil 71. The electromagnetic coil 71 is controlled to heat the drying cylinder 6, thereby drying the mulberry residue inside. Using the electromagnetic coil 71 for heating allows for precise temperature control, helping to preserve the effective components in the mulberry residue and preventing nutrient loss or quality degradation due to overheating. Multiple material-pulling plates 73 are fixedly installed along the length of the drying cylinder 6 on the side facing the pretreatment box 2, arranged circumferentially along the axis of the drying cylinder 6. The material-pulling plates 73 increase the height and range of movement of the mulberries, allowing them to be fully turned and enhancing the drying effect. Multiple sets of spikes 74 are fixedly installed circumferentially along the axis of the drying cylinder 6 at the other end of the drying cylinder 6. The spikes 74 separate any clumps of mulberry residue, ensuring uniform drying. This significantly reduces its size and weight, making it easier to store and transport.
[0041] The method of using the mulberry processing equipment of this utility model is as follows: First, the mulberry residue is poured into the hopper 4. The first motor 11 is controlled to work, driving the auger 9 to rotate through the first bevel gear 10 and the second bevel gear 12, thereby discharging the mulberry residue in the hopper 4 into the pretreatment box 2. The mulberry residue in the pretreatment box 2 moves to the discharge port 3 through the inclined bottom surface and is discharged outward through the discharge port 3. During this process, the second motor 53 is controlled to work, driving the rotating shaft 51 to rotate. At this time, the rotating shaft 51 causes the crushing roller 52 to rotate, breaking up the blocky mulberry residue falling from the conveying cylinder. During this process, the exhaust fan 55 and the heating wire 56 are controlled to work, drawing external air into the pretreatment box 2 for heating, performing preliminary drying treatment on the mulberry residue, and dispersing the mulberry residue to ensure uniform heating of the material during the subsequent drying process. Meanwhile, the baffle 57 prevents the broken mulberry pulp from falling into the exhaust pipe 54, and the moisture is discharged from the exhaust port 58, the conveying cylinder 8, and the discharge port 3.
[0042] Mulberry residue discharged from outlet 3 enters the higher part of drying cylinder 6 via conveyor plate 14. A baffle ring 15 prevents the mulberry residue at the higher part of drying cylinder 6 from falling out. A third motor 16 is controlled to operate, driving the drying cylinder 6 to rotate via belt 18 and pulley 17, thus moving the mulberry residue inside the drying cylinder 6. An electromagnetic coil 71 is controlled to operate, heating the drying cylinder 6 to dry the mulberry residue inside. Using electromagnetic coil 71 for heating allows for precise temperature control, helping to preserve the effective components in the mulberry residue and preventing nutrient loss or quality degradation due to overheating. A feeding plate 73 increases the height and range of movement of the mulberries, allowing them to turn over fully and enhancing the drying effect. Spikes 74 separate clumped mulberry residue, ensuring even drying. This significantly reduces its volume and weight, facilitating storage and transportation. The dried mulberry residue is discharged from the lowest point of drying cylinder 6.
