Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable dehydration technology, specifically a dehydrator for long-term preservation of vegetables. Background Technology

[0002] Vegetables refer to edible plant organs (such as roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds), which are usually rich in nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, and are an indispensable part of the human diet.

[0003] However, since vegetables are perishable, it is advisable to wash them before refrigeration or temporary storage, and then remove any residual moisture from their surface to reduce condensation. This will effectively prevent rotting due to excessive humidity before refrigeration.

[0004] Current spin dryers are prone to oscillation during operation, which over time can cause the motor output shaft to move, reducing its service life. They also generate significant noise during operation. Therefore, to address these issues, a spin dryer for long-term vegetable preservation is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0029] 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.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, a dehydrator for long-term preservation of vegetables includes a base 1, a shell 2 fixedly connected to the surface of the base 1, the shell 2 being arc-shaped, and a bucket lid 3 being rotatably connected to the end of the shell 2 by a thread.

[0032] A motor 12 is installed inside the base 1, and the motor 12 is powered by an external power source;

[0033] The output shaft of motor 12 is rotatably connected through base 1. A rotating seat 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the output shaft of motor 12. A vertical rod 11 is fixedly connected to the surface of rotating seat 10. A reinforcing ring 9 is provided on the surface of vertical rod 11.

[0034] A support rod 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 2. The support rod 6 is "L" shaped. A roller 16 is fixedly connected to the short arm end of the support rod 6. The roller 16 abuts against the surface of the reinforcing ring 9.

[0035] An observation window is provided on the surface of the bucket lid 3;

[0036] A support ring 13 is fixedly connected to the end of the upright 11, and a filter bucket 8 is installed on the surface of the support ring 13 by a fixing mechanism. A stepped groove is formed on the surface of the reinforcing ring 9, and a groove 15 is formed on the surface of the stepped groove. A roller 16 is set in the groove 15, and an angle is formed on the surface of the reinforcing ring 9.

[0037] During operation, the vegetables to be dehydrated are placed in the filter bucket 8, then the filter bucket 8 is placed on the support ring 13 and secured with a fixing mechanism. The bucket lid 3 is then fixed to the outer shell 2 with threads to prevent the vegetables from flying out. The dehydration status of the vegetables in the filter bucket 8 can be observed at any time through the observation window on the surface of the bucket lid 3. After preparation, the motor 12 is started, which drives the rotating seat 10 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating seat 10 drives the upright 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the filter bucket 8 on the surface of the support ring 13 to rotate, thus removing the water from the surface of the vegetables. If there are too many vegetables inside, even a slight uneven distribution can cause a large tilt, which could damage the motor 12. The roller 16, which is pressed against the surface of the reinforcing ring 9, can straighten the filter bucket 8, thereby protecting the motor 12 and preventing noise caused by shaking, effectively extending its service life. The design of the roller 16 embedded in the groove 15 can prevent water from entering the roller 16, causing it to rust and affecting normal rotation.

[0038] The upright 11 is L-shaped. The short arm end of the upright 11 is fixedly connected to the surface of the swivel 10. The support ring 13 is fixedly connected to the surface of the long arm end of the upright 11. There are at least three uprights and support rods 6, which are evenly distributed. There are at least two reinforcing rings 9. The cross-sections of the upright 11 and support rods 6 are circular. The surface of the swivel 10 is an arc surface.

[0039] During operation, the cylindrical support rod 6 and upright rod 11 can effectively reduce the adhesion of vegetable residue, making it easier for workers to clean the debris inside the outer shell 2. Furthermore, the presence of at least three upright rods 11 can save costs and reduce manufacturing difficulty as much as possible while ensuring that the structure does not shift.

[0040] The fixing mechanism includes a rod 20, a rolled edge on the surface of the filter bucket 8, the rod 20 being slidably connected within the rolled edge on the surface of the filter bucket 8, a pull ring 21 being fixedly connected to the end of the rod 20, a block 18 being fixedly connected to the rolled edge surface, a slot being provided on the surface of the ring 13 relative to the position of the block 18, a locking block 17 being slidably connected to the surface of the block 18 via a spring, a bevel being provided on the surface of the locking block 17, an insertion hole being provided on the surface of the slot relative to the position of the block 18, a pull rope 19 being fixedly connected to the surface of the block 18, the other end of the pull rope 19 passing through the block 18 and being fixedly connected to the rod 20, and a handle 7 being fixedly connected to the surface of the filter bucket 8.

[0041] During operation, the filter bucket 8 is directly installed on the support ring 13. At this time, the insert block 18 will be locked in the slot, and the side wall of the slot will press the angled locking block 17, causing the two locking blocks 17 to retract towards each other. When the locking block 17 moves to the position of the slot, the spring drives the locking block 17 to reset and cooperate with the slot to fix the vertical direction of the filter bucket 8. The cooperation between the insert block 18 and the slot can fix the left and right rotation direction of the filter bucket 8. Through the design of the fixing structure, the filter bucket 8 can be fixed, preventing the filter bucket 8 from not rotating when the motor 12 drives the rotating base 10 to rotate. This improves the drying efficiency and reduces excessive wear caused by mutual friction.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] Please see Figure 7 As shown in the first embodiment, as another implementation of this utility model, the surface of the base 1 is connected to an adjustment seat 22 by a thread; during operation, the level of the base 1 can be adjusted by the adjustment seat 22, thereby improving the stability of the base 1 on the ground.
