AI Technical Summary
Existing crocodile meat drying equipment suffers from uneven heating, especially insufficient contact of hot air with the bottom of the meat pieces, leading to uneven drying and possible sticking and spoilage.
The rotating column structure driven by a rotary motor, combined with a honeycomb-shaped inclined guide hole design, enables the drying tray to revolve and rotate, ensuring that hot air circulates evenly to all surfaces of the crocodile meat, especially the bottom.
This method ensures uniform heating of all surfaces of the crocodile meat, avoiding uneven drying, sticking, and spoilage, thus improving drying efficiency and effectiveness.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically a drying device for processing crocodile meat. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of the specialty meat processing industry, the market demand for crocodile meat has been increasing year by year due to its unique nutritional value and taste. Drying, as a key process in crocodile meat processing, has attracted much attention.
[0003] Currently, the drying equipment used in the industry usually adopts a simple rotating structure, which allows the drying equipment to rotate in one direction inside the drying box. The bottom of the drying tray is mostly closed or sparsely perforated, which cannot guide hot air to circulate and contact the bottom of the meat, resulting in a prominent problem of uneven heating.
[0004] Therefore, a drying device for crocodile meat processing is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a drying device for crocodile meat processing, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. This utility model achieves the effect of rotating the column while revolving around the sun, by connecting the rotating motor, rotating shaft, spiral fixing frame and rotating column. This drives the drying tray to revolve and rotate synchronously, thus achieving the beneficial effect of alternating contact of the crocodile meat surfaces with hot air and avoiding uneven drying in certain areas.

[0021] 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. Example
[0022] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 This embodiment of a drying device for crocodile meat processing includes a drying box 1. A rotary motor 3 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom of the drying box 1. A rotary shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of the rotary motor 3. At least three rotating columns 6 are rotatably installed inside the drying box 1. Several drying trays 8 are fixedly installed on the outer side of the rotating columns 6. An annular rack 11 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the drying box 1. The annular rack 11 is located above the rotary motor 3 and is sleeved on the outside of the rotating columns 6. Several honeycomb guide holes 12 are provided through the bottom of the drying trays 8. Several heating components 13 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the drying box 1.
[0023] When the crocodile meat to be dried is placed inside the drying tray 8, the rotary motor 3 and the drying chamber 1 are started. The rotary shaft 4 connected to the output end of the rotary motor 3 begins to rotate. At this time, the rotary column 6 set inside the drying chamber 1 revolves around the sun. Under the action of the ring rack 11, the rotary column 6 also rotates on its own axis. At this time, the drying tray 8, along with the crocodile meat inside, follows the rotary column 6 in both revolution and rotation. During rotation, the drying tray 8 circulates hot air evenly through the honeycomb guide holes 12 at the bottom, optimizing the drying efficiency. The heating of the drying chamber 1 is achieved by the control system through electrical connection combined with the pre-set heating components 13 inside the drying chamber 1 to achieve temperature control.
[0024] A feed door 2 is movably installed on the outside of the drying chamber 1. The feed door 2 extends into the interior of the drying chamber 1, and the drying chamber 1 is tightly fitted with the feed door 2.
[0025] When preparing to dry the crocodile meat, open the feed door 2 on the outside of the drying chamber 1 and place the crocodile meat of different sizes into different drying trays 8.
[0026] A spiral fixing frame 7 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the rotating shaft 4, and a rotating column 6 is rotatably mounted inside the spiral fixing frame 7. The rotating column 6 is installed through the spiral fixing frame 7, with the upper end of the rotating column 6 extending above the spiral fixing frame 7 and the lower end of the rotating column 6 extending to the inner side of the annular rack 11.
[0027] When the rotary motor 3 is started, the rotary shaft 4 begins to rotate. The rotation of the rotary shaft 4 drives the outer spiral fixing frame 7 to start rotating. The rotating column 6, which is set inside the spiral fixing frame 7, follows and revolves. At the same time, the spiral fixing frame 7 provides a fixing effect on the rotating column 6, so that the rotating column 6 remains stable when it revolves.
[0028] A rotating gear 10 is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating column 6. The rotating gear 10 is located below the spiral fixing frame 7. The rotating gear 10 is meshed with the ring rack 11. A drive gear 9 is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 4. The drive gear 9 is located below the spiral fixing frame 7. The drive gear 9 is meshed with the rotating gear 10.
[0029] When the rotating shaft 4 starts to rotate, the drive gear 9 on the outer side of the rotating shaft 4 rotates along with the rotating shaft 4. The rotation of the drive gear 9 drives the rotating gear 10 to start rotating on its own axis while revolving around the central axis, which in turn drives the rotating column 6 and the crocodile meat inside the drying tray 8 to start rotating on their own axis while revolving around the central axis, so that the surfaces of the meat pieces alternately contact the hot air, optimizing the drying efficiency.
[0030] The honeycomb guide holes 12 are distributed in a honeycomb pattern at the bottom of the drying tray 8, and the honeycomb guide holes 12 extend to the outside of the drying tray 8. The honeycomb guide holes 12 are set at a certain inclined angle at the bottom of the drying tray 8.
[0031] When the drying tray 8 rotates along with the rotating column 6, the bottom of the crocodile meat inside the drying tray 8 comes into contact with hot air through the honeycomb guide holes 12, and at the same time, the hot air is evenly circulated through the honeycomb guide holes 12 at the bottom of the rotating drying tray 8.
[0032] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows: When this utility model is working, first open the feeding door 2 and put the crocodile meat into the drying tray 8. After starting the rotary motor 3, the rotary shaft 4 drives the spiral fixing frame 7 to rotate, so that the rotating column 6 revolves with it. At the same time, the drive gear 9 on the rotary shaft 4 drives the rotating gear 10 of the rotating column 6 to mesh with the ring rack 11, so that the rotating column 6 rotates synchronously. Thus, the drying tray 8 carries the crocodile meat to revolve and rotate. Hot air flows evenly through the inclined honeycomb guide holes 12 at the bottom of the drying tray 8 and contacts the bottom of the crocodile meat, making full contact with the crocodile meat to optimize the drying efficiency.
[0033] The use of the drying oven 1 and the heating component 13 is existing technology. The installation method, connection method or setting method disclosed in this embodiment are all common mechanical connection methods. As long as they can achieve their beneficial effects, they can be implemented. They are common knowledge in the field. Therefore, this embodiment will not elaborate on their specific structural composition and working principle.
[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
