Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment technology, specifically a drying device for the production of wakame seaweed that facilitates drainage. Background Technology

[0002] Wakame seaweed, also known as sea vegetable, is a type of edible algae. Its overall shape is lanceolate with a prominent central rib and thinner sides. It often forms numerous pinnate lobes with notched edges, sometimes without division. It is densely covered with mucus glands. In addition to naturally propagated wakame, it has also begun to be artificially cultivated due to its nutritional value being comparable to spirulina. During the production and processing of wakame, due to its unique growth characteristics, it is necessary to clean off the dense mucus covering its exterior before cutting it into strips or sections and then drying it.

[0003] Existing drying devices for wakame seaweed production have some drawbacks: First, they cannot turn the wakame seaweed over, which can easily lead to uneven drying and poor drying effect; second, they consume a lot of electricity during drying, which cannot save resources. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying device for wakame seaweed production that facilitates drainage, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a drying device for wakame seaweed production that facilitates drainage, comprising a rotating base and a drying chamber. The rotating base is rotatably connected to both sides inside the drying chamber. A guide block is provided at the upper end of one side of the rotating base, and a support is fixed between the other side of the rotating base. A lower positioning cover is connected to the lower end of the support. An electric push rod is fixed in the middle of the upper end of the support, and an upper positioning cover is connected to the lower end of the electric push rod. Slip rings are provided at the lower ends of both sides of the upper positioning cover, and the slip rings are connected to the support. The drying chamber features a side-sliding connection and a protective chamber on one side. A motor is fixed inside the protective chamber, and its output is fixedly connected to the drive end of the rotating seat. The chamber door can be opened, allowing the wakame seaweed to be placed in the lower positioning cover. Then, an electric push rod extends, causing the upper positioning cover to move downwards. The upper and lower positioning covers work together to store the wakame seaweed. Simultaneously, several through holes are evenly distributed on both the upper and lower positioning covers. Driven by the motor, the upper and lower positioning covers rotate together, ensuring more thorough contact between the hot air and the wakame seaweed, thus improving the drying effect.

[0006] Preferably, an electric push rod two is fixed in the middle of the lower positioning cover, and a lifting plate is fixed at the upper end of the electric push rod two. The electric push rod two extends, causing the lifting plate to move upward, which facilitates the removal of the wakame seaweed.

[0007] Preferably, a drain pipe is connected to the lower end of one side of the drying chamber, and an electric valve is provided at one end of the drain pipe. The electric valve can be opened to allow the residual moisture in the drying chamber to be discharged through the drain pipe, thus preventing moisture accumulation.

[0008] Preferably, both sides of the drying chamber are provided with annular guide rails, and the guide block is slidably connected to the annular guide rail. The drying chamber limits the guide block through the annular guide rail, which is conducive to the stable rotation of the support.

[0009] Preferably, a support chamber is provided at the upper end of the protective chamber, and an insulation chamber is provided at the upper end of the support chamber.

[0010] Preferably, a fan is fixed inside the support chamber, and a return air pipe is connected between one end of the fan and the rear end of the drying chamber. When the fan is started, the hot air in the drying chamber is drawn back into the fan through the return air pipe to form a circulating airflow and reduce heat loss.

[0011] Preferably, an air duct is connected between the insulation chamber and the other end of the fan. An electric heating wire is installed inside the insulation chamber. The airflow passes through the air duct and is blown into the insulation chamber. The electric heating wire generates high heat, causing the airflow to form hot air.

[0012] Preferably, a hot air pipe is connected between the upper end of the heat preservation chamber and the upper end of the drying chamber, and an air outlet is provided at the lower end of the hot air pipe. Hot air is introduced into the hot air pipe, exits through the air outlet, and enters the drying chamber to dry the wakame seaweed.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: better drying effect and resource saving;

[0014] (1) The door can be opened and the wakame seaweed can be placed in the lower positioning cover. Then, the electric push rod can be extended to move the upper positioning cover down. The upper and lower positioning covers cooperate with each other to store the wakame seaweed. There are several through holes evenly distributed on the upper and lower positioning covers, which facilitates the drying of the wakame seaweed with hot air and also helps the water on the wakame seaweed to fall off. Under the drive of the motor, the rotating seat is rotated, which in turn drives the upper and lower positioning covers to rotate together, so that the hot air comes into full contact with the wakame seaweed and improves the drying effect. In addition, the electric valve can be opened to allow the residual water in the drying chamber to be discharged through the drain pipe, avoiding water accumulation and achieving a good drying effect.

[0015] (2) When the fan is started, the airflow is blown into the heat preservation chamber through the air duct. The heating wire generates high heat, which makes the airflow form hot air. The hot air is introduced into the hot air duct, and then out through the air outlet and into the drying chamber to dry the wakame seaweed. Subsequently, the hot air in the drying chamber is drawn back into the fan through the return air duct to form a circulating airflow, reducing heat loss and saving resources.
