Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kiwi fruit processing technology, specifically to a kiwi fruit slice drying box. Background Technology
[0002] Kiwifruit is generally oval in shape, with a greenish-brown appearance and a skin covered with dense fuzz that is not edible. Inside, there is bright green flesh and a row of black seeds. It is a tender, nutritious, and delicious fruit with a soft texture and a sweet and sour taste.
[0003] A fruit slice drying device disclosed in Publication No. CN210569581U is described as follows: "It includes a drying chamber with six mounting blocks inside. Each of the six mounting blocks has a sliding groove on one opposite side. Three trays are movably mounted between two mounting blocks. A heater is fixedly mounted on the bottom of one side of the drying chamber, and two sets of heating resistance wires are fixedly mounted inside the heater. A fan is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the other side of the drying chamber, and a suction pipe is fixedly mounted on one side of the fan. Four caster mounting blocks are fixedly mounted at the four ends of the bottom of the drying chamber, and casters are movably mounted on the bottom of each of the four caster mounting blocks. This series of structural features makes the device easy to move and provides good drying results."
[0004] However, the above-mentioned fruit slice drying device has the following disadvantages:
[0005] 1. Although the drying device in this patent can speed up the drying of fruit slices and avoid contaminating them, the hot air is only blown in from one side of the tray top through the branch pipe during use. This can easily lead to uneven temperature distribution on the tray, resulting in inconsistent drying speeds of the fruit slices and thus affecting the drying quality.
[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a kiwi fruit slice drying oven. Utility Model Content
[0007] In response to the problems in related technologies, this utility model provides a kiwi fruit slice drying box that can make the temperature distribution on the mesh plate more uniform, which facilitates the improvement of the consistency of the drying speed of the slices and thus improves the drying quality of the slices.
[0008] Therefore, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0009] A kiwi fruit slice drying box includes a box body, a partition, and a drying assembly. The top wall of the box body is provided with ventilation holes, and a control box is installed on the right outer wall of the box body. A partition is fixedly installed in the middle of the inner cavity of the box body. A heating chamber is opened in the inner cavity of the partition, and heat outlet holes are opened on the left and right side walls of the partition. A part of the drying assembly is connected to the bottom wall of the heating chamber.
[0010] The drying assembly includes a nozzle, one end of which passes through the inner wall of the chamber, and the other end of which is connected to a branch pipe. The branch pipe is located in the left and right side wall chambers of the chamber. The middle part of the branch pipe is connected to an air supply pipe, and the bottom end of the air supply pipe is connected to an air inlet pipe. The other end of the air inlet pipe is connected to the main body of the hot air blower. The nozzle in the middle of the bottom wall of the chamber passes through the bottom wall and continues to extend into the heating chamber of the partition.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the hot air blower body is disposed in the equipment cavity of the lower section of the housing, and the air inlet end of the hot air blower body is connected to a detachable filter cartridge.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a support base is installed on the inner wall of the box, and a mesh plate is placed on the support base.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model, support seats are also installed on the left and right side walls of the partition, and the partition groove in the middle of the mesh plate is used in conjunction with the partition.
[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model, casters are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the box.
[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a protective door is hinged to the front side wall of the box, and a handle is installed on the protective door.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0017] This invention utilizes a combination of a housing, partitions, and drying components. During operation, the main hot air blower delivers hot air through inlet and outlet pipes into various branch pipes. The hot air is then ejected from nozzles on the left and right side walls of the housing to dry the kiwi slices on the mesh plate. Simultaneously, hot air from nozzles within the heating chamber of the partition is ejected from heat outlet holes on the left and right side walls of the partition, aiding in the drying process. Therefore, this equipment ensures a more uniform temperature distribution on the mesh plate, facilitating consistent drying speed and ultimately improving the drying quality of the slices.

The partition groove in the middle of the mesh plate 16 cooperates with the partition 2. A heating chamber 6 is opened in the inner cavity of the partition 2, and heat outlet holes 7 are opened on the left and right side walls of the partition 2. The bottom wall of the heating chamber 6... A portion of the drying assembly 3 is connected to the upper part; the drying assembly 3 includes a nozzle 8, one end of which passes through the inner wall of the housing 1, and the other end of which is connected to a branch pipe 9. The branch pipe 9 is located in the left and right side wall chambers of the housing 1. The middle part of the branch pipe 9 is connected to an air supply pipe 10, and the bottom end of the air supply pipe 10 is connected to an air inlet pipe 11. The other end of the air inlet pipe 11 is connected to a hot air blower body 12. The hot air blower body 12 is located in the equipment cavity 13 in the lower section of the housing 1. The air inlet end of the hot air blower body 12 is connected to a detachable filter cartridge 14. The nozzle 8 in the middle of the bottom wall of the housing 1 passes through the bottom wall and continues to extend into the heating chamber 6 of the partition 2. The equipment works in conjunction with the housing 1, partition 2, and drying assembly 3. During use, the hot air blower 12 operates, sending hot air into each branch pipe 9 through the air inlet pipe 11 and the air outlet pipe 10. Then, the hot air can be sprayed out from the nozzles 8 on the left and right side walls of the housing 1 to dry the kiwi slices on the mesh plate 16. During this process, the hot air sprayed from the nozzles 8 in the heating chamber 6 of the partition 2 is sprayed out from the heat outlet holes 7 on the left and right side walls of the partition 2, which plays an auxiliary drying role. Therefore, this equipment can make the temperature distribution on the mesh plate 16 more uniform, which is conducive to improving the consistency of the drying speed of the slices and thus improving the drying quality of the slices.
[0029] In one embodiment, please refer to the appendix to the specification. Figure 1 and Figure 5 As a further embodiment of this utility model, casters 17 are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the box 1. The casters 17 facilitate the movement of the box 1.

[0031] Workflow: When in use, first place the kiwi slices on the mesh plate 16, then place the mesh plate 16 on the support base 15. After all this is done, close the protective door 18 through the handle 19, and then start the hot air blower body 12 through the control box 5. Hot air is sent into each branch pipe 9 through the air inlet pipe 11 and the air outlet pipe 10. Then the hot air can be sprayed out from the nozzles 8 on the left and right side walls of the box 1 to dry the kiwi slices on the mesh plate 16. During this process, the hot air sprayed out from the nozzles 8 in the heating chamber 6 of the partition 2 is sprayed out from the heat outlet holes 7 on the left and right side walls of the partition 2 to assist in the drying process.
[0032] It should be noted that the power supply and operating principle of the hot air blower body 12 and the control box 5 are clear to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0033] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
