Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit and vegetable processing technology, and in particular to a fruit and vegetable drying equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Fruits and vegetables refer to vegetables and fruits, which are an important part of the human diet. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber and other nutrients, and play an important role in maintaining human health. Fresh fruits and vegetables have a high water content and are prone to rotting and spoilage. Drying can remove most of the water in fruits and vegetables, thereby inhibiting the growth of microorganisms and the activity of enzymes, and extending the shelf life of fruits and vegetables.
[0003] In existing fruit and vegetable drying technologies, fruits and vegetables are typically placed in fixed drying frames. These frames remain stationary, leading to uneven heating and relatively low drying efficiency. Due to the uneven flow of hot air and the varying shapes and sizes of the fruits and vegetables, the fixed frames make it difficult to achieve uniform drying. This results in excessive residual moisture inside the fruits and vegetables, affecting drying quality and efficiency. The fixed nature of the frames restricts the even distribution of hot air, making it easy for fruits and vegetables to experience localized over-drying or under-drying during the drying process. Furthermore, the fixed frames make it difficult to effectively remove internal moisture during the drying process, thus prolonging drying time and increasing energy consumption. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a fruit and vegetable drying equipment, which aims to improve the problem that existing fruit and vegetable drying equipment cannot make the placement frame shake during drying.

[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] Reference Figures 1-3This utility model provides an embodiment of a fruit and vegetable drying equipment, comprising a housing 1, a motor 2 fixedly connected to the outside of the housing 1, a rotating plate 3 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 2, a rotating rod 4 rotatably connected to the other end of the rotating plate 3, a connecting plate 5 rotatably connected to the other end of the rotating rod 4, a fixing plate 7 fixedly connected to the right side of the connecting plate 5, limit frames 6 fixedly connected to both sides of the outside of the housing 1, the fixing plate 7 slidably connected inside the left limit frame 6, and a limit block 8 slidably connected inside the right limit frame 6, and mounting plates 10 fixedly connected to opposite sides of the fixing plate 7 and the limit block 8, with a placement device slidably connected inside the mounting plate 10. The box 11 has an exhaust pipe 27 fixedly connected inside, and an exhaust hood 28 fixedly connected around the upper part of the exhaust pipe 27. The box 1 has a support frame 21 fixedly connected outside, and a fan 23 fixedly connected to the upper part of the support frame 21. A heating box 22 is fixedly connected to the output end of the fan 23. One end of a flexible air supply hose 26 is fixedly connected to the left side of the heating box 22. The other end of the flexible air supply hose 26 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the exhaust pipe 27. A filter plate 24 and a heating rod 25 are fixedly connected inside the heating box 22. The filter plate 24 is located on the side close to the fan 23. A limit rod 9 is fixedly connected inside the right limit frame 6. A limit block 8 is slidably connected inside the limit rod 9.
[0025] The lid is located on the upper part of the box 1, used to close and open the box 1, facilitating the operator to pour fruits and vegetables into the box 1. It also serves a certain degree of heat preservation. Once the fruits and vegetables are poured in, they will naturally fall into the placement frame 11. Next, the motor 2 is started, and its output end drives the rotating plate 3 and rotating rod 4 to rotate. When one end of the rotating rod 4 rotates, the other end drives the connecting plate 5 to move linearly. As the connecting plate 5 moves, the fixing plate 7 slides within the limiting frame 6. The movement of the fixing plate 7 further drives the mounting plate 10 to move, and the movement of the mounting plate 10 guides the limiting block 8 to slide along the outside of the limiting rod 9. The limiting rod 9 provides a movement path for the limiting block 8 while maintaining its position. Stability is achieved through the combined action of the fixing plate 7 and the limiting block 8, which allows the mounting plate 10 to drive the placement frame 11 to vibrate up and down inside the box 1. At the same time, the fan 23 is started to draw fresh air from the outside and deliver it to the heating box 22. The filter plate 24 is used to clean the air entering the heating box 22, removing dust and other impurities to ensure the cleanliness of the hot air. After being finely filtered by the filter plate 24, the air is heated by the heating rod 25. The heating rod 25 directly heats the air and is the core component of the hot air drying system. The heated hot air is then delivered to the exhaust pipe 27 through the air delivery hose 26 and finally blown onto the placement frame 11 through the exhaust hood 28.
[0026] Reference Figures 3-5Positioning blocks 13 are fixedly connected to both outer sides of the placement frame 11. Both positioning blocks 13 are slidably connected inside the mounting plate 10. Fixing boxes 14 are fixedly connected to both upper sides of the mounting plate 10. Slide plates 15 are slidably connected inside both fixing boxes 14. Limiting components are fixedly connected to the upper parts of both slide plates 15 to limit their movement. Insert rods 17 are fixedly connected to the front of both slide plates 15, and both insert rods 17 are slidably connected inside the positioning blocks 13. Pull rods 16 are fixedly connected to one side of each slide plate 15. The limiting components include a moving plate 18 and a guide rod 19. Both movable plates 18 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the slide plate 15. Both movable plates 18 are slidably connected to the outside of the guide rod 19. Both sides of the upper part of the multiple fixed boxes 14 are fixedly connected to the upright plates. Both ends of the two guide rods 19 are fixedly connected to the opposite side of the multiple upright plates. Both guide rods 19 are fitted with return springs 20. One end of the two return springs 20 is fixedly connected to the rear of the movable plate 18. The other end of the two return springs 20 is fixedly connected to the front of the upright plate. Both sides of the outer part of the placement frame 11 are fixedly connected to the sliders 12. Both sliders 12 are slidably connected to the inside of the mounting plate 10.
[0027] After the fruit and vegetable drying process is completed, the operator can open the front door of the box 1 to prepare to take out the dried fruit and vegetables. At this time, the operator will pull the two levers 16 backward. As the levers 16 move, the slide plate 15 and the moving plate 18 also move accordingly. The moving plate 18 slides smoothly on the outside of the guide rod 19. The guide rod 19 provides a stable movement trajectory for the moving plate 18, ensuring that the moving plate 18 can move in a straight line and avoid deviation. At the same time, pressure is applied to its built-in return spring 20, causing it to deform. The return spring 20 stores energy when it is squeezed. When the pressure is released, it can quickly restore its shape and push the relevant parts back to the initial position. During the process of the return spring 20 being squeezed, under the action of the mounting plate 10, the slide plate 15 will drive the insert rod 17 to move outward from the inside of the positioning block 13, thereby releasing the fixing effect on the positioning block 13. Then, the operator only needs to pull the handle at the front of the placement frame 11, and the placement frame 11 will drive the two sliders 12 to slide smoothly inside the mounting plate 10. In this way, the placement frame 11 can be easily taken out.
[0028] Working Principle: A lid is installed on the upper part of the box 1. Opening the lid allows fruits and vegetables to be poured into the box 1, where they fall into the placement frame 11. Next, the motor 2 is started. The output of the motor 2 drives the rotating plate 3 and rotating rod 4 to rotate. When one end of the rotating rod 4 rotates, the other end moves the connecting plate 5. The moving connecting plate 5 causes the fixing plate 7 to slide inside the limiting frame 6. The moving fixing plate 7 causes the mounting plate 10 to move. The moving mounting plate 10 causes the limiting block 8 to slide outside the limiting rod 9. With the cooperation of the fixing plate 7 and the limiting block 8, the mounting plate 10 causes the placement frame 11 to vibrate up and down inside the box 1. Simultaneously, the fan 23 is started to draw air from the outside and deliver it to the interior of the heating chamber 22. After being filtered by the filter plate 24, the heating rod 25 heats the air. The heated air is then delivered through the air hose 26 to the exhaust pipe 27, and finally blown through the exhaust hood 28 onto the placement frame 11, stimulating the fruits and vegetables inside. The drying process effectively shakes the fruits and vegetables, helping them to be more evenly distributed within the placement frame 11 and ensuring they all come into contact with the hot air inside the box 1, thus increasing the drying speed. After drying, the front door of the box 1 is opened, and the operator pulls the two levers 16 backward. As the levers 16 move, they move the sliding plate 15 and the moving plate 18, causing the moving plate 18 to slide outside the guide rod 19 and compress the return spring 20. The return spring 20 deforms under the pressure, and under the action of the mounting plate 10, the sliding plate 15 moves the insert rod 17 out of the positioning block 13, releasing the fixation of the positioning block 13. Next, the handle at the front of the placement frame 11 is pulled, causing the placement frame 11 to slide the two sliders 12 inside the mounting plate 10, allowing the placement frame 11 to be removed. This facilitates the disassembly of the placement frame 11, making it easy to remove the fruits and vegetables and clean the placement frame 11, preventing residual fruit and vegetable residue or mold growth.

Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
