Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit and vegetable storage technology, specifically to a fruit and vegetable preservation warehouse with self-cleaning function. Background Technology

[0002] After harvesting, fruits and vegetables do not stop their life activities. They continue to respire, evaporate water, and grow microorganisms, all of which can lead to a decline in quality. Generally, cold storage is used to control the temperature and humidity inside the storage room to slow down the deterioration of the quality of fruits and vegetables.

[0003] Currently, some large cold storage facilities (such as controlled atmosphere storage or fresh food storage) typically install shelves inside to store fruits and vegetables in bulk. Because fruits and vegetables are usually stored in breathable fruit and vegetable crates for easy access, existing shelves are usually supported by support boards during storage. This method not only hinders ventilation of the fruits and vegetables and makes it difficult for the cold air in the cold storage to come into contact with the fruits and vegetables for cooling, but also causes some leaves or debris to fall onto the support boards during storage, and water stains from spoiled fruits and vegetables to remain on the support boards, which requires subsequent cleaning by staff, making it quite troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, this utility model provides a fruit and vegetable preservation warehouse with a self-cleaning function. The fruit and vegetable preservation warehouse can effectively support the fruit and vegetable placement frame by reasonably setting the support components on the frame. Through the gaps between the support components, it is not only convenient to ventilate the bottom of the fruit and vegetable placement frame, but also convenient to directly remove some leaves or debris mixed in with the fruit and vegetables during storage, and can also directly remove water stains generated when the fruit and vegetables spoil, realizing the self-cleaning of the shelf and facilitating the subsequent storage of fruit and vegetables.

[0005] This invention is achieved by constructing a fruit and vegetable preservation warehouse with a self-cleaning function, comprising a frame formed by several columns, with several height-adjustable support components arranged in layers within the frame, and gaps between the support components for debris to fall into. A slag discharge trough is provided at the bottom of the frame, and a drain pipe and an exhaust pipe are provided on the side of the slag discharge trough.

[0006] Preferably, the column has several evenly distributed and identically sized fixing holes along its height direction, and the support assembly is inserted into the fixing holes to maintain support.

[0007] Preferably, the support assembly includes support plates disposed opposite to each other on the outer sides of both ends of the frame and a plurality of support rollers movably connected between the support plates and having gaps therebetween. The support plates are connected to the columns through connecting plates at both ends.

[0008] Preferably, the connecting plate has an L-shaped cross-section, with its inner end attached to the side of the column. A support plate is fixed to the outer side of one end of the connecting plate, and a hook-shaped plate is provided on the inner side of the other end. The hook-shaped plate is inserted into the fixing hole of the column and supported by gravity.

[0009] Preferably, connecting pipes are provided at both ends of the support roller, the diameter of the connecting pipes being smaller than the diameter of the support roller. The support roller is inserted into a preset support hole in the support plate through the connecting pipes to maintain rotation and linear sliding. A limit plate is threaded to the end of the connecting pipe, and the limit plate keeps the connecting pipe always within the support hole of the support plate.

[0010] Preferably, the top height of the support roller is less than the top height of the support plate.

[0011] Preferably, the drain pipe in the slag discharge trough plate is adapted to the bottom of the slag discharge trough plate, the exhaust pipe is arranged above the drain pipe, and the drain pipe and exhaust pipe are arranged opposite to each other on the slag discharge trough plate.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] This cold storage facility, through its rationally designed gaps between the internal support components, creates an excellent ventilation environment at the bottom of the fruit and vegetable storage frames. This promotes smooth airflow at the bottom of the frames, promptly removing heat and moisture generated by the respiration of the fruits and vegetables, reducing spoilage caused by localized heat and humidity, significantly extending the shelf life of the produce, and improving the quality of stored fruits and vegetables.

[0014] Meanwhile, the gaps between the supporting components allow for the direct drainage of leaves, debris, and water stains from spoiled fruits and vegetables during storage. This enables the shelves to self-clean, effectively preventing the accumulation of impurities and water stains on the shelves, reducing the possibility of bacterial growth, maintaining the cleanliness of the shelves, reducing the workload of manual cleaning, lowering the daily maintenance costs of the cold storage, and improving the convenience of storage operations.

[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for illustration and explanation of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model in any way. The accompanying drawings in this utility model are only for illustrative purposes and to facilitate understanding of the embodiments and are not intended to limit this utility model in any way.

[0025] It should be noted that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc. shown in the accompanying drawings are only for the purpose of assisting those skilled in the art in understanding and reading the content disclosed in the specification, and are not intended to limit the conditions under which the present invention can be implemented. Any modifications to the structure, changes in the proportions, or adjustments to the size, without affecting the effects and purposes that the present invention can produce, should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed in the present invention.

[0026] As described in the background section, most existing cold storage shelves support fruit and vegetable racks using support plates. This not only hinders ventilation at the bottom of the racks, but also allows debris (such as leaves or branches) to detach from the fruits and vegetables during storage and fall onto the support plates through the gaps in the racks, requiring timely cleaning by staff. Furthermore, juices from damaged fruits and vegetables dripping onto the support plates can affect the subsequent storage of fruits and vegetables.

[0027] For the reasons stated above, please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2This utility model provides a fruit and vegetable preservation cell with self-cleaning function, including a frame formed by several columns 1. Several height-adjustable support components are arranged in layers inside the frame. There are gaps between the support components for debris to fall. A slag discharge trough plate 5 is provided at the bottom of the frame. A drain pipe 6 and an exhaust pipe 7 are provided on the side of the slag discharge trough plate 5.

[0028] Example 2,

[0029] Please see the appendix Figure 3 ~Appendix Figure 5 Based on Embodiment 1, in order to achieve height adjustment of the support component and thus facilitate the placement of fruit and vegetable placement frames of different heights, a feasible solution is provided here. Several evenly distributed and identically sized fixing holes are opened on the column 1 along the height direction, and the support component is inserted into the fixing holes to maintain support.

[0030] In this embodiment, the support assembly includes support plates 2 facing each other on the outer sides of both ends of the frame and a plurality of support rollers 4 movably connected between the support plates 2 and having gaps. The support plates 2 are connected to the column 1 through connecting plates 3 at both ends.

[0031] In this embodiment, the connecting plate 3 has an L-shaped cross-section, with its inner end attached to the side of the column 1. A support plate 2 is fixed to the outer side of one end of the connecting plate 3, and a hook-shaped plate 8 is provided on the inner side of the other end. The hook-shaped plate 8 is inserted into the fixing hole of the column 1 and supported by gravity.

[0032] Example 3,

[0033] Please see the appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 7 Based on Embodiment 2, in order to facilitate the height adjustment of the support component and the fixation of the height of the support component, a feasible solution is provided here. The two ends of the support roller 4 are provided with connecting pipes 10. The diameter of the connecting pipes 10 is smaller than the diameter of the support roller 4. The support roller 4 is inserted into the preset support hole of the support plate 2 through the connecting pipes 10 to maintain rotation and linear sliding. A limit plate 9 is threaded to the end of the connecting pipe 10. The limit plate 9 keeps the connecting pipe 10 always in the support hole of the support plate 2.

[0034] When adjusting the height of the support assembly, first rotate the limiting plate 9 away from the support roller 4, keeping the connecting pipes 10 at both ends of the support roller 4 able to slide linearly within the support holes of the support plate 2. At this time, the support plate 2 can be pulled outward to facilitate the removal of the hook plates 8 at the ends of the connecting plates 3 on both sides of the support plate 2 from the fixing holes of the column 1, thereby achieving height adjustment. After adjustment, insert the hook plates 8 into the fixing holes of the appropriate height, and then rotate the limiting plate 9 to a position close to the support roller 4, so that the connecting pipes 10 can only rotate within the support holes, thus fixing the support assembly.

[0035] Example 4,

[0036] Based on Embodiment 2, in order to avoid the problem of the fruit and vegetable placement box sliding outward and falling off when placed on the support roller, a feasible solution is provided here. The top height of the support roller 4 is less than the top height of the support plate 2. The top of the support plate 2 limits the fruit and vegetable placement box and prevents it from slipping off.

[0037] Example 5,

[0038] Please refer to the appendix again. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 Based on Example 1, in order to facilitate the discharge of impurities and juice, a feasible solution is provided here: the drain pipe 6 in the slag discharge trough plate 5 is adapted to the bottom of the slag discharge trough plate 5, the exhaust pipe 7 is arranged above the drain pipe 6, and the drain pipe 6 and the exhaust pipe 7 are arranged opposite to each other on the slag discharge trough plate 5.

[0039] The juice can be drained through the drain pipe, and the oppositely arranged exhaust pipes can easily blow impurities to the drain pipe, where they can be discharged along with the juice.

[0040] This cold storage unit, through its rationally arranged support structure, not only achieves self-cleaning but also facilitates ventilation at the bottom of the fruit and vegetable placement crates. It also facilitates the horizontal movement of the fruit and vegetable placement crates, ensuring even stacking of the crates, and allows for automated removal of the crates via a lifting mechanism, thus enabling automatic placement and retrieval of the fruit and vegetable placement crates.

[0041] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made under the technical spirit of the present utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the present utility model.
