The drive shaft 81 is rotatably connected to the inside of the bracket 3 through a bearing. The first helical gear 82 is fixedly provided at one end of the drive shaft 81. The extension plate 83 is fixedly provided on one side of the top plate 7. The auxiliary shaft 84 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the extension plate 83 through a bearing. The second helical gear 85 is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the auxiliary shaft 84. The second helical gear 85 meshes with the first helical gear 82. The main shaft 86 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the middle part of the top plate 7 through a bearing. The disinfection spray chamber 87 is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the main shaft 86.

[0025] A linkage gear 11 is fixedly provided in the middle of the drive shaft 81, and a number of teeth 12 are fixedly provided on the inner wall of the conveyor belt 5. The linkage gear 11 is meshed with the number of teeth 12.

[0026] Both the top of the auxiliary shaft 84 and the top of the main shaft 86 are fixedly equipped with pulleys 13. A linkage belt 14 is connected between the two pulleys 13. During the transmission and transportation process, several teeth 12 of the conveyor belt 5 mesh with the linkage gear 11, thereby enabling the linkage gear 11 to rotate with the drive shaft 81. Then, through the meshing of the first helical gear 82 and the second helical gear 85, the auxiliary shaft 84 can rotate on the inner wall of the extension plate 83. Since the linkage belt 14 is driven between the two pulleys 13, it can drive the main shaft 86 and the disinfection spray chamber 87 to rotate through the conveyor belt 5.

[0027] As a further implementation of the above technical solution: Both encapsulation components 9 include a vertical plate 91, a first sliding groove 92, a movable seat 93, a connecting screw 94, a screw nut 95, a second motor 96, two push rods 97, a pad 98, a cylinder 99, and an electric heating plate 910. The two vertical plates 91 are respectively fixedly installed on one side of the front and one side of the back of the bracket 3. The inner walls of the top of each of the two vertical plates 91 are provided with a first sliding groove 92. The inner walls of the two first sliding grooves 92 are slidably connected to the movable seat 93. The interiors of the two first sliding grooves 92 are rotatably connected to the connecting screw 94 via bearings. The inner walls of the two movable seats 93 are fixedly provided with screw nuts 95, which are threadedly connected to the two connecting screws 94 respectively. The inner walls of the bottom of each of the two vertical plates 91 are fixedly provided with a second motor 97. The drive shaft of the machine 96 is fixedly connected to two connecting screws 94. Top rods 97 are fixedly provided on both sides of the top of the two moving seats 93. A pad 98 is fixedly provided between every two adjacent top rods 97. A cylinder 99 is fixedly provided at the top of the two pads 98. The piston rods of the two cylinders 99 are fixedly connected to electric heating plates 910. By rotating the two connecting screws 94, they cooperate with the two screw nuts 95 respectively, so that the two moving seats 93 can slide along the inner wall of the two first sliding grooves 92 respectively. The height of the two electric heating plates 910 can be adjusted according to the height of the wet pasta vacuum bag. When the transported wet pasta vacuum bag moves between the two electric heating plates 910, the piston rods of the two cylinders 99 extend, so that the two electric heating plates 910 move closer to each other, thereby heat-sealing the two sides of the wet pasta vacuum bag.

[0028] As a further implementation of the above technical solution: an electric push rod 15 is fixedly provided on one side of the top of the sealing chamber 1, and a sealing plate 16 is fixedly provided on one end of the electric push rod 15. A feeding groove 17 is opened on the inner wall of one side of the sealing chamber 1, and a sealing ring 18 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the feeding groove 17. The feeding groove 17 facilitates the staff to put the packaged bag with wet pasta into the device, and the sealing ring 18 and the sealing plate 16 can effectively improve the sealing of the device.

[0029] As a further implementation of the above technical solution: a second sluice 19 is provided on the inner wall of one side of the bottom of the sealed chamber 1, and a discharge chamber 20 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the second sluice 19. A guide plate 21 is fixedly provided on one side of the bracket 3.

[0030] As a further implementation of the above technical solution: a switch panel 22 is fixedly provided at the top of the sealed chamber 1. The surface of the switch panel 22 is provided with a first motor switch, a second motor switch, a cylinder switch, a heating plate switch and an electric push rod switch. The first motor 10, two second motors 96, two cylinders 99, two heating plates 910 and electric push rod 15 are electrically connected to the power supply through the first motor switch, the second motor switch, the cylinder switch, the heating plate switch and the electric push rod switch respectively.

[0031] Working Principle: When using this utility model, the sealing plate 16 is first moved upward by the retraction of the electric push rod 15. Then, the operator places the vacuum-bag wet pasta on the surface of the conveyor belt 5 through the feeding trough 17. The sealing plate 16 and the sealing ring 18 are then abutted to seal the inside of the device. The vacuum pump outside the device then draws the inside of the sealed chamber 1 into a vacuum state. Next, the first motor 10 is started by controlling the first motor switch. At this time, the conveyor belt 5 is driven between the two conveyor rollers 4, and the surface of the vacuum-bag wet pasta can be placed for transportation. During the transmission process, several teeth 12 of the conveyor belt 5 mesh with the linkage gear 11, which causes the linkage gear 11 to rotate with the drive shaft 81. Then, the first helical gear 82 meshes with the second helical gear 85, which causes the auxiliary shaft 84 to rotate on the inner wall of the extension plate 83. Since the linkage belt 14 is driven between the two pulleys 13, the main shaft 86 can be driven by the conveyor belt 5. As the disinfection spray chamber 87 rotates, chlorine dioxide is sprayed through several nozzles at the bottom of the disinfection spray chamber 87 to achieve uniform disinfection of the wet pasta during transportation. Then, the two second motors 96 are started, and the two connecting screws 94 rotate and engage with the two screw nuts 95 respectively, so that the two moving seats 93 can slide along the inner walls of the two first sliding grooves 92 respectively. The height of the two electric heating plates 910 can be adjusted according to the height of the wet pasta vacuum bag. When the transported wet pasta vacuum bag moves between the two electric heating plates 910, the piston rods of the two cylinders 99 extend, causing the two electric heating plates 910 to move closer to each other, thereby heat-sealing both sides of the wet pasta vacuum bag. After sterilization and sealing, the pasta bag falls into the discharge chamber 20 through the guide plate 21. After all the pasta bags in the batch have been sterilized and sealed, the door plate 2 is turned and opened, and the discharge chamber 20 is pulled out from the inner wall of the second sliding groove 19, so that the sealed wet pasta can be taken out.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
