Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of garlic slice processing technology, and in particular to a garlic slice drying device. Background Technology
[0002] Garlic is an important condiment and medicinal plant with antibacterial, antioxidant, and immune-boosting effects. Garlic slice processing is one of the important methods of garlic deep processing, and drying is a key step in garlic slice production, directly affecting the product's color, flavor, nutritional value, and storage stability.
[0003] With the advancement of industrialization, hot air drying technology has become the mainstream process for garlic slice processing. This technology, through precise control of temperature (60℃~75℃) and airflow, can effectively reduce the moisture content of garlic slices to 5%~8% via circulating drying. However, due to the inherent stickiness of garlic slices, they are prone to sticking together during the drying process, and a large amount of residual mucus accumulates on the inner walls of the drying equipment. If this situation persists, it will not only affect the operating efficiency of the equipment but also gradually reduce the drying quality of the finished garlic slices. Utility Model Content

[0018] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0019] The garlic slice drying device of this utility model is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the garlic slice drying device of this utility model embodiment may include: a housing 1, a conveying mechanism 2, a heating component 3, and a turning component 4.
[0021] The shell 1 has an inlet 11 and an outlet 12 on its two sides respectively.
[0022] The conveying mechanism 2 passes through the inlet 11 and the outlet 12. The conveying mechanism 2 includes two conveying rollers 21, a conveying mesh belt 22 and a cleaning component 23.
[0023] It should be noted that, in order to ensure the drying effect of garlic slices, multiple drying devices can be arranged in sequence. When the garlic slices pass through a drying device, the temperature of the garlic slices rises, and the moisture inside the garlic slices can evaporate on its own.
[0024] It should be noted that one end of the conveying mechanism 2 described in this embodiment is located below the external slicing device.
[0025] Two conveyor rollers 21 are respectively installed on the housing 1, and the cleaning component 23 is connected to the housing 1 and is located below the discharge port 12.
[0026] Heating component 3 is installed inside housing 1, material turning assembly 4 is connected to housing 1, and upper belt of conveyor belt 22 passes through material turning assembly 4.
[0027] It should be noted that the heating component 3 described in this embodiment can be electrically heated, and its specific structure and working principle have been disclosed in the prior art, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0028] It should be noted that a drive device is provided on one side of the housing 1, and the output shaft of the drive device is connected to one end of a conveyor roller 21, thereby driving the conveying mechanism 2 to run.
[0029] Specifically, relevant technicians use this drying device to dry garlic slices. The garlic slices produced by the external slicing device fall onto the conveying mechanism 2 under the action of gravity. The driving device drives the conveying mechanism 2 to run, and the garlic slices enter the interior of the shell 1 through the feed port 11.
[0030] Under the action of the heating component 3, the temperature inside the shell 1 can reach about 70°C. The garlic slices move inside the high-temperature shell 1, and the moisture carried by the garlic slices is evaporated. When the garlic slices pass through the turning component 4, the garlic slices can be turned over after being impacted by the airflow. The garlic slices that are stuck together can be separated by themselves under the impact. The garlic slices continue to be dried inside the shell 1. The garlic slices that have finished drying once can enter the next drying device for secondary drying.
[0031] On the return journey, a significant amount of sap (garlic juice) adheres to the conveyor belt 22. After passing through this drying device, the sap solidifies on the conveyor belt 22. The cleaning component 23 then treats the sap. The treated conveyor belt 22 then passes through the interior of this drying device for further drying, thereby preventing sap residue, ensuring the operating efficiency of the device, and improving the drying quality of the garlic slices.
[0032] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the cleaning assembly 23 includes a housing 231, multiple reversing rollers 233, and a cleaning brush 234.
[0033] The box body 231 is installed on one side of the housing 1. The box body 231 contains cleaning fluid 232. Multiple reversing rollers 233 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the box body 231 and the housing 1 respectively. The conveyor belt 22 is wrapped around the outside of the multiple reversing rollers 233. One reversing roller 233 is immersed in the cleaning fluid 232. The cleaning brush 234 is installed at the bottom of the box body 231 and is in contact with the conveyor belt 22.
[0034] Specifically, under the action of multiple reversing rollers 233, the conveyor belt 22 passes through the interior of the box 231, the conveyor belt 22 is immersed in the interior of the cleaning liquid 232, and the process of the conveyor belt 22 moving is relative to the cleaning brush 234, thereby cleaning the surface of the conveyor belt 22.
[0035] The conveyor belt 22, which is detached from the cleaning fluid 232, moves obliquely upward. The cleaning fluid 232 can flow back into the interior of the box 231. After the conveyor belt 22 re-enters the interior of the shell 1, it can be dried.
[0036] It should be noted that the cleaning fluid 232 described in this embodiment can be water. A circulating purification device can be arranged on the outside of the box 231 to purify the cleaning fluid 232, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect.
[0037] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the material turning assembly 4 includes a pulse blower 41, multiple air nozzles 42, and multiple limiting components 43.
[0038] Among them, the pulse blower 41 is installed on the outer wall of the housing 1, and multiple air nozzles 42 are set inside the housing 1. The air outlet of the pulse blower 41 is connected to the multiple air nozzles 42. The air nozzles 42 are located below the upper belt of the conveyor belt 22. Multiple limiting members 43 are connected to the inner wall of the housing 1 and are located above the air nozzles 42.
[0039] It should be noted that the working principle of the pulse blower 41 described in this embodiment is as follows: compressed air is stored in an air tank, and pulse blowing is achieved by rapidly switching on and off a solenoid valve.
[0040] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the cross-section of the limiting member 43 is arranged in a triangular structure, and the nozzle 42 is located diagonally below the limiting member 43.
[0041] It is understandable that the cross-section of the limiting member 43 is triangular, which allows the impact gas to form a circulation inside the limiting member 43. The circulation can accelerate the air flow on the surface of the garlic slices, thereby optimizing the drying effect of the garlic slices.
[0042] In addition, the nozzle 42 is located diagonally below the limiting member 43. The nozzle 42 generates an impact force here, which can make the garlic slices move towards the feed inlet 11, thereby prolonging the time the garlic slices are under the limiting member 43.
[0043] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, it also includes auxiliary components 5, which include an air dehumidifier and purifier 51, an air outlet duct 52, and a regulating valve 53.
[0044] The housing 1 is equipped with a temperature and humidity sensor 50, an air dehumidifier 51 is installed on the housing 1, one end of the air outlet pipe 52 is connected to the air dehumidifier 51, the other end of the air outlet pipe 52 is connected to the housing 1, and a regulating valve 53 is installed on the air outlet pipe 52.
[0045] It should be noted that a controller is installed on the outer wall of the housing 1 described in this embodiment, and the conveying mechanism 2, heating component 3, material turning assembly 4, temperature and humidity sensor 50, air dehumidifier and purifier 51 and regulating valve 53 are respectively connected to the controller.
[0046] Specifically, the temperature and humidity sensor 50 monitors the environment inside the housing 1. When the temperature and humidity inside the housing 1 exceed the threshold, the controller receives the signal and sends a signal to the air dehumidifier 51 and the regulating valve 53 to accelerate the dehumidification inside the housing 1. When the temperature and humidity inside the housing 1 are within the threshold range, the regulating valve 53 can adjust the speed at which the gas inside the housing 1 enters the air dehumidifier 51, thereby ensuring the drying effect inside the housing 1.
[0047] In summary, the garlic slice drying device of this utility model utilizes a turning component to impact the garlic slices, thereby separating the sticky garlic slices. The turning component also accelerates the drying process. Furthermore, the cleaning component continuously cleans the conveyor belt to prevent the residue of sap, thus ensuring the operating efficiency of the device and improving the drying quality of the garlic slices.
