Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of chili sauce production equipment, and in particular to a dehydration device for chili sauce. Background Technology

[0002] Chili sauce is a condiment made from chili peppers and is a common condiment on the dining table. With economic development and social progress, in the later stages of the chili sauce production process, it is necessary to remove the water contained in the chili sauce, that is, to dehydrate the chili sauce.

[0003] A search of Chinese utility model patents (publication number CN222824718U) reveals a dehydrator for producing chili sauce, comprising a shell, a dehydration tank, a dehydration frame, a fixing rod, a cleaning rack, and a scraper. It can scrape the adhering chili sauce into the dehydration frame, and then easily remove the dehydration frame along with the chili sauce from the dehydration tank, allowing the chili sauce inside to be quickly discharged, thus improving the overall dehydration efficiency of the chili sauce.

[0004] However, practical application has revealed that this technical solution still has the following shortcomings:

[0005] For chili sauce with high viscosity and rich in pulp fiber, centrifugal force is not effective in removing the internal bound water, resulting in long dehydration time and low efficiency. The hot air from the heater can only evaporate the water from the surface and cannot squeeze the internal water in depth, ultimately resulting in incomplete dehydration and high water content, which is difficult to meet the requirements of industrial production for efficient dehydration and low water content. Utility Model Content

[0006] The present invention aims to provide a dehydration device for chili sauce to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A dehydration device for chili sauce includes a housing and a dehydration mesh frame. The housing is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft. A motor is connected to the housing, and the output end of the motor is connected to the rotating shaft. A locking block is connected to the rotating shaft. The dehydration mesh frame is connected to an mounting block. The mounting block has a locking groove that engages with the locking block. A ring plate is connected to the dehydration mesh frame and engages with the housing. A drain pipe is connected to the housing. A cover lifting mechanism is connected to the housing. The cover lifting mechanism includes a connecting block and a top cover that engages with the dehydration mesh frame. A scraper is connected to the top cover and engages with the dehydration mesh frame. An electric push rod is connected to the top cover. A pressure plate is connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod and engages with the dehydration mesh frame. The pressure plate has a sliding groove, and the scraper is slidably connected to the sliding groove.

[0009] Preferably, the cover lifting mechanism further includes a support block, which is connected to the housing. The support block has a moving groove and is rotatably connected to a threaded rod. The support block is connected to a second motor, the output end of which is connected to the threaded rod. The connecting block is threadedly connected to the threaded rod and slidably connected to the moving groove.

[0010] Preferably, the housing is connected to a conical block, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the conical block.

[0011] Preferably, the housing has a movable groove, and a ball bearing is movably connected to the inner wall of the movable groove.

[0012] Preferably, the ring plate has an annular groove that mates with a ball bearing.

[0013] Preferably, the top cover has a second movable groove, and a second ball bearing is movably connected to the inner wall of the second movable groove.

[0014] Preferably, the housing has a ventilation channel, a heater is connected to the housing, a jet nozzle is connected to the housing, and the two ends of the ventilation channel are respectively connected to the heater and the jet nozzle.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this technical solution compared to existing technologies are as follows:

[0016] (1) This technical solution applies pressure to the chili sauce inside the dehydration mesh frame by setting an electric push rod and a pressure plate, achieving a dehydration effect similar to pressing, which makes up for the shortcomings of centrifugal dehydration alone. Combined with centrifugal force, it further enhances the dehydration effect, effectively removes the bound water inside the chili sauce, and improves the dehydration efficiency. By setting a scraper, the sauce can be stirred during the dehydration process to prevent the sauce from sticking to the inner wall of the dehydration mesh frame.

[0017] (2) By setting up a cover lifting mechanism, the top cover can be lifted quickly, making it easy to remove the dehydration mesh frame, reducing manual operation, improving the stability and safety of equipment operation, and optimizing the smoothness of the collaborative work of each component, further improving the overall efficiency of chili sauce dehydration.

[0018] (3) By setting a conical block, the water thrown out during centrifugal dehydration can be gathered along the conical surface to the bottom edge of the shell, avoiding water retention in the center of the shell. Combined with the drain pipe, this achieves smoother drainage and improves dehydration efficiency.

[0019] (4) By setting up movable groove one, movable groove two, ball one and ball two, rolling friction replaces traditional sliding friction, greatly reducing the resistance between the ring plate and the shell and top cover when the dewatering mesh frame rotates with the shaft, making the motor drive more labor-saving, reducing energy consumption, reducing component wear, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0020] (5) By setting an annular groove, a dual positioning is formed in conjunction with the card block and the card slot. The two work together to ensure that the dewatering mesh frame is installed stably, which not only ensures that the power of the motor is efficiently transmitted to the dewatering mesh frame, but also prevents it from shifting when rotating at high speed, thereby improving the reliability of equipment operation and the stability of dewatering effect.

[0021] (6) By setting up ventilation channels, warm air blowers and jet nozzles, the chili sauce after centrifugal dehydration is further heated and dried, and residual moisture is removed through heat conduction and evaporation, thus shortening the overall processing time.

[0027] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0028] like Figure 1-4The device shown is a dehydration apparatus for chili sauce, comprising a housing 1 and a dehydration mesh frame 9. A rotating shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the housing 1, and a conical block 3 is connected to the center of the inner bottom wall of the housing 1, with the rotating shaft 5 rotatably connected to the conical block 3. A drain pipe 2 is connected to the bottom wall of the housing 1, located at the edge of the bottom wall of the housing 1. A motor 4 is connected to the bottom wall of the housing 1, and the output end of the motor 4 is connected to the rotating shaft 5. A locking block 6 is connected to the top of the rotating shaft 5, and an mounting block 8 is connected to the bottom wall of the dehydration mesh frame 9. The mounting block 8 has a groove 7 at the bottom wall, and the locking block 6 can engage with the groove 7. An annular plate 20 is connected to the top of the dehydration mesh frame 9. Several sets of movable grooves 24 are formed at the top of the housing 1, arranged in a circular array, with ball bearings 25 movably connected to the inner wall of each movable groove 24. An annular groove 26 is formed at the bottom wall of the annular plate 20, and the annular groove 26 engages with the ball bearings 25. When the dehydration mesh frame 9 is installed inside the housing 1, the top of the ball bearings abuts against the bottom wall of the annular groove 26. A ventilation channel 23 is provided on the side wall of the housing 1. A heater 22 is connected to the outer side wall of the housing 1, and a jet nozzle 21 is connected to the inner side wall of the housing 1. The two ends of the ventilation channel 23 are connected to the air outlet of the heater 22 and the air inlet of the jet nozzle 21, respectively. After the motor 4 starts, it drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate at high speed. The locking block 6 at the top of the rotating shaft 5 engages with the locking groove 7 of the mounting block 8 at the bottom of the dehydration mesh frame 9, causing the dehydration mesh frame 9 to rotate synchronously. Under centrifugal force, the water in the chili sauce inside the dehydration mesh frame 9 is thrown out through the mesh and flows along the inner wall of the housing 1 to the drain pipe 2 at the bottom edge for discharge. The conical block 3 at the bottom of the housing 1 guides the water flow to the edge. The annular groove 26 on the bottom wall of the ring plate 20 cooperates with the ball bearings 25 in the movable groove 24 at the top of the housing 1 to form a rolling friction support, reducing rotational resistance and limiting the radial movement of the ring plate 20, ensuring the smooth rotation of the dehydration mesh frame 9. The hot air generated by the heater 22 is delivered to the jet nozzle 21 through the ventilation channel 23 and sprayed evenly onto the chili sauce in the dehydration mesh frame 9. The residual moisture is evaporated through heat conduction, achieving deep drying.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 3-4As shown, a cover lifting mechanism is connected to the side wall of the housing 1. The cover lifting mechanism includes a support block 11, which is connected to the side wall of the housing 1. A moving groove 13 is provided on the side wall of the support block 11, and a threaded rod 14 is rotatably connected to the support block 11, with the threaded rod 14 located inside the moving groove 13. A second motor 15 is connected to the top wall of the support block 11, and the output end of the second motor 15 is connected to the threaded rod 14. A connecting block 12 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 14, and the connecting block 12 is slidably connected to the moving groove 13. A top cover 16 is connected to the bottom wall of the connecting block 12, and the top cover 16 cooperates with the dewatering mesh frame 9. A scraper 10 is connected to the bottom wall of the top cover 16, and the scraper 10 cooperates with the dewatering mesh frame 9. An electric push rod 17 is connected to the center of the top cover 16, and a pressure plate 18 is connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 17, which cooperates with the dewatering mesh frame 9. A sliding groove 19 is provided on the side wall of the pressure plate 18, and the scraper 10 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 19. The bottom wall of the top cover 16 has several sets of movable grooves 27 arranged in a circular array. Ball bearings 28 are movably connected to the inner wall of each movable groove 27. When the bottom of the scraper 10 contacts the inner bottom wall of the dehydration mesh frame 9, the ball bearings 28 contact the top wall of the ring plate 20. The motor 15 rotates in both directions, driving the threaded rod 14 to rotate. The threaded connecting block 12 slides up and down within the moving groove 13, achieving precise lifting and lowering of the top cover 16. When the connecting block 12 is at the bottom of the moving groove 13, the top cover 16 closes the dehydration mesh frame 9, and the ball bearings 28 contact the top wall of the ring plate 20. When the motor 4 drives the dehydration mesh frame 9 to rotate, the top cover 16 remains stationary. At this time, the scraper 10 contacts the inner side wall and inner bottom wall of the dehydration mesh frame 9 and rotates relative to the dehydration mesh frame 9, scraping off the sauce adhering to the dehydration mesh frame 9. The electric push rod 17 can push the pressure plate 18 downward. At this time, the side wall of the pressure plate 18 is in close contact with the inner side wall of the dehydration mesh frame 9, and the bottom wall of the pressure plate 18 applies pressure to the chili sauce to simulate the pressing process and squeeze out the internal bound water.

[0030] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0031] In use, align the slot 7 of the mounting block 8 at the bottom of the dehydration mesh frame 9 with the locking block 6 at the top of the rotating shaft 5, and press down to engage the locking block 6 with the slot 7. Simultaneously, the annular groove 26 on the bottom wall of the ring plate 20 engages with the ball bearing 25 at the top of the housing 1, ensuring a stable installation of the dehydration mesh frame 9. Pour the chili sauce to be dehydrated into the dehydration mesh frame 9, ensuring it does not exceed 2 / 3 of the frame's volume to prevent overflow during centrifugation. Start the second motor 15, lowering the top cover 16 until it contacts the top wall of the ring plate 20. At this point, the scraper 10 inserts into the dehydration mesh frame 9, and the ball bearing 28 contacts the top wall of the ring plate 20, sealing the housing 1 with the top cover 16. Turn on the first motor 4, causing the dehydration mesh frame 9 to rotate at high speed, removing most of the free water through centrifugal force. The water is discharged through the drain pipe 2. After centrifugation, turn off the first motor 4 and turn on the electric push rod 17, pushing the pressure plate 18 to slowly press down and squeeze the sauce. After the pressure plate 18 is raised to its original position, motor 4 is restarted, causing scraper 10 to agitate the sauce. Heater 22 is turned on, and hot air is evenly blown onto the sauce through jet nozzle 21. After drying is complete, heater 22 and motor 4 are turned off, and motor 15 is started to raise the top cover 16 to its highest position, exposing the top of the dehydration mesh frame 9. The dehydration mesh frame 9 is then pulled upwards to separate the locking block 6 from the locking groove 7. The dehydration mesh frame 9 is then removed from the housing 1, and the dehydrated chili sauce is poured out.
