[0005] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of embodiments of the present invention and to briefly describe some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention.

[0006] To address the problem mentioned in the background art that when drying jujubes, the jujubes in the placement frame are in a relatively static state, which results in slow drying speed at the bottom of the placement frame and uneven drying, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.

[0007] An intelligent device for efficient drying of jujubes includes a drying box with an opening on one side. A rotating door is rotatably connected to the opening. Multiple placement frames are inserted inside the drying box. Multiple sliding tracks are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the drying box. Sliding blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the placement frames and are inserted into the sliding tracks. The upper end of the placement frame is concave, and a flipping component is installed in the concave part of the placement frame. The flipping component allows the jujubes to be flipped during drying.

[0008] Preferably, a drive assembly is installed on the back of the drying oven, which drives each turning assembly to rotate.

[0009] Preferably, the drying oven is equipped with an intelligent control component that controls the drying temperature and time.

[0010] Preferably, the control components include a high-temperature resistant camera and a high-temperature resistant thermal sensor. The drying oven is located above each placement frame and is equipped with a high-temperature resistant camera and a high-temperature resistant thermal sensor. The high-temperature resistant camera captures changes on the surface of the jujubes, and the high-temperature resistant thermal sensor detects the temperature of the jujubes.

[0011] Preferably, the flipping assembly includes a rotating rod and a perforated conveyor belt. The perforated conveyor belt is embedded in the recess of the placement frame. Multiple rotating rods are rotatably connected to the recess at the upper end of the placement frame. A handle is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the placement frame.

[0012] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a transmission rod, a limiting block, a first sprocket, a second sprocket, an insertion hole, a limiting slot, a chain, a meshing gear, and a drive gear. One end of the rotating roller on the inner side of the perforated conveyor belt is fixedly connected to a transmission rod extending out of the drying chamber. Multiple limiting blocks are provided on the outer wall of the transmission rod. Multiple first sprockets are rotatably connected to the back of the drying chamber. A second sprocket is fixedly connected to the outer wall of each first sprocket. An insertion hole is provided on each first sprocket, and multiple limiting slots are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the insertion hole. The transmission rod is inserted into the interior of the first sprocket, and the limiting slots are inserted into the limiting blocks.

A rotating cap is rotatably connected to one side of the outer wall of the placement frame. The rotating cap is fixedly connected to the end of the transmission rod away from the first sprocket.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. Using the set flipping component, the red dates are placed on the top of the placement frame and evenly distributed between every two rotating rods. The rotation of the perforated conveyor belt can flip the red dates. The rotating rods can reduce the resistance of flipping the red dates. Furthermore, the holes on the perforated conveyor belt can also dry the bottom of the red dates, resulting in a better drying effect. The placement frame can be easily picked up by holding the handle.

[0015] 2. The drive motor in the drive assembly drives the drive gear to rotate. The meshing gear rotates, which in turn coordinates with multiple chains, the first sprocket, and the second sprocket to make each perforated conveyor belt rotate. By rotating the rotating cap, the limit block and the limit slot can be manually adjusted to align during the installation of the frame, making the installation more convenient.

[0016] 3. Through the intelligent control components, the changes in the surface of jujubes and the changes in nutritional flavor and quality with different temperatures were determined through multiple experiments in advance. During drying, the surface changes of jujubes were photographed by a high-temperature resistant camera, and the temperature of jujubes was detected by a high-temperature resistant thermal sensor. The drying time and temperature were intelligently controlled by comparing the patterns, so that the drying effect of jujubes was better and the nutritional flavor and high quality were preserved.
