Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of rapeseed processing equipment, and in particular to a tumbling drying device for rapeseed shoots. Background Technology

[0002] Rapeseed shoots are the tender stems and leaves of the rapeseed plant, a member of the Brassicaceae family. Cultivated throughout China, the tender stems and leaves are harvested in spring, washed, and used. They are also known as rapeseed shoots, rapeseed greens, and rapeseed mustard greens. As a specialty vegetable widely grown in southern my country, rapeseed shoots are rich in vitamin C, dietary fiber, and minerals, possessing high nutritional and economic value. Fresh rapeseed shoots have a high water content (85%-90%), making them prone to rotting and spoilage at room temperature. Drying can reduce the water content to below 10%, extending the shelf life to over six months while preserving their nutrients and flavor.

[0003] Traditional equipment often uses static drying (such as flat drying trays) or unidirectional conveying (such as mesh belts). The parts of the rapeseed that are stacked or in contact with the conveying surface are prone to local overheating, resulting in the phenomenon of "outer burnt and inner damp". The surface moisture evaporates quickly to form a hard shell, and the internal moisture is difficult to diffuse, resulting in poor rehydration of the finished product.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a tumbling drying device for rapeseed shoots to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0038] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 This application provides a tumbling drying device for rapeseed shoots, including a housing 1. A rotating mechanism 2 is provided inside the housing 1. A motor 3 is fixedly installed on the back of the housing 1. The rotating mechanism 2 includes a rotating roller 21, a sleeve 22, a connecting rod 23, a collar 24, and a material hanging assembly 25. The rotating roller 21 is rotatably connected inside the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3. The sleeve 22 is sleeved on the circumferential side of the rotating roller 21. The connecting rod 23 is fixedly connected to the circumferential side of the sleeve 22, and multiple sets of connecting rods 23 are provided.

[0039] Specifically, the hanging assembly 25 includes a rotating block 251, a mounting plate 252, a tapered rod 253, and a spring 254. The rotating block 251 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the collar 24, and two sets of rotating blocks 251 are provided. The mounting plate 252 is fixedly connected between the two sets of rotating blocks 251. The tapered rod 253 is slidably connected to the left and right sides of the mounting plate 252, and multiple sets of tapered rod 253 are provided. The spring 254 is slidably connected inside the mounting plate 252, and both ends of the spring 254 abut against the mounting plate 252 and the tapered rod 253.

[0040] Specifically, the hanging assembly 25 also includes a limiting plate 255, a piston 256, a pull rope 257, a vertical plate 258, and a handle 259. The limiting plate 255 is set on the upper end of the mounting plate 252. The piston 256 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 252 and fixedly connected to the limiting plate 255. The pull rope 257 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the piston 256 and fixedly connected to the tapered rod 253. The vertical plate 258 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the limiting plate 255, and two sets of vertical plates 258 are provided. The handle 259 is fixedly connected between the two sets of vertical plates 258. By pulling the handle 259 upward, the tapered rod 253 can slide into the mounting plate 252, which makes it easier to drop the rapeseed on the tapered rod 253.

[0041] Specifically, a square cylinder 4 is fixedly connected inside the chassis 1, and a sliding plate 5 is slidably connected inside the square cylinder 4.

[0042] Specifically, a vertical plate 6 is fixedly connected to the front end of the sliding plate 5, and a disc 7 is fixedly connected to the back of the vertical plate 6. The disc 7 is rotatably connected to the sleeve 22 through a bearing.

[0043] Specifically, a groove 211 is provided through the side of the rotating roller 21, and a limit rod 221 is fixedly connected inside the sleeve 22. The limit rod 221 is slidably connected inside the groove 211.

[0044] Specifically, heating elements 8 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the inner wall of the chassis 1, and a hot air blower 9 is fixedly installed on the back of the chassis 1. A slot with the same size as the air outlet of the hot air blower 9 is opened through the back of the chassis 1.

[0045] Specifically, a water tank 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the chassis 1, and a baffle plate 11 is fixedly connected inside the chassis 1.

[0046] Specifically, the bottom of the chassis 1 has multiple drainage holes 12, which are connected to the water tank 10. A drain valve 13 is fixedly installed on the back of the water tank 10.

[0047] Specifically, the front of the chassis 1 is connected to the door 14 via a hinge, and the bottom of the chassis 1 is fixedly connected to four sets of support legs 15.

[0048] With the above structure, the rapeseed stalk drying equipment provided in this application allows the rapeseed stalks to be hung on the upper end of the conical rod 253. Then, the motor 3 drives the rotating roller 21 to rotate, and the rotating roller 21 drives the sleeve 22 to rotate. At this time, the hanging component 25 rotates with the sleeve 22 inside the machine box 1. When the hanging component 25 rotates, the rotating block 251 rotates inside the collar 24, thereby keeping the hanging component 25 in an upright state. When the hanging component 25 rotates, it drives the rapeseed stalks to come into uniform contact with hot air, thereby achieving dynamic drying.

[0049] Pulling the vertical plate 6 allows the sleeve 22 to slide forward along the rotating roller 21. At this time, the hanging assembly 25 can be pulled out from inside the machine box 1. After pulling out the hanging assembly 25, by pulling the handle 259 upward, the piston 256 can pull the conical rod 253 into the mounting plate 252 through the pull rope 257. At this time, the dried rapeseed on the conical rod 253 can fall freely. This structure makes it easy to remove the rapeseed.

[0050] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of a tumbling drying device for rapeseed shoots provided in this application. Specific embodiments have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The descriptions of these embodiments are merely for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications to this application without departing from its principles, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this application.
