Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to an anti-condensation device for food processing workshops. Background Technology

[0002] Food processing refers to the process of transforming raw materials (such as vegetables, meat, grains, etc.) into edible food through a series of processing techniques. Food processing can not only extend the shelf life of food but also improve its taste and nutritional value. A food processing workshop is a place specifically used for food processing. The environment and equipment of the workshop need to meet food safety and hygiene requirements to ensure that the products are not contaminated during the processing.

[0003] Food processing workshops are often characterized by large temperature differences between the inside and outside of the workshop. Moisture condenses on cold surfaces, forming water droplets and producing condensate. Condensate is a breeding ground for microorganisms such as bacteria and mold. Especially in warm and humid environments, if there is a large amount of condensate in the workshop, it can easily become a breeding ground for bacteria and mold, leading to food contamination and even food poisoning and other safety issues.

[0004] However, traditional food processing plant designs often lack effective moisture drainage systems, resulting in moisture not being able to escape from the plant in a timely manner. This leads to condensation on ceilings or walls, affecting the plant environment and food processing quality. The low efficiency of moisture absorption and dissipation results in humid air and increased condensation. Therefore, this invention proposes an anti-condensation device for food processing plants to solve the problems mentioned in the background. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an anti-condensation device for food processing workshops.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] Preferably, the drain pipe is connected to the inside of the air inlet seat, and the inside of the air inlet seat has an opening that communicates with the inside of the device seat.

[0009] Preferably, the drainage tube is a copper tube, and several air inlets are evenly provided on both the left and right sides of the drainage tube.

[0010] Preferably, a second bevel gear is fixed to the outside of the driven fan, and a first bevel gear is fixed to the junction of the drain pipe, with the first bevel gear meshing with the corresponding second bevel gear on the inner side.

[0011] Preferably, the drain tube is connected to the air inlet seat via a sealed bearing, and a torsion spring is provided at the junction of the drain tube, and the drain tube is connected to an electric heating element mounted on the device base.

[0012] Preferably, a shielding block is installed on the lower side of the air outlet, both one-way valve plates are located above the shielding block, and a torsion spring is provided at the junction of the one-way valve plates.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-4 An anti-condensation device for a food processing workshop includes a base 1, an exhaust fan 2 fixedly installed on the lower side of the base 1, air inlets 8 on all four sides of the lower part of the base 1, driven fans 5 installed at the air inlets 8, and air intake seats 9 fixedly installed on the upper part of all four sides of the base 1. A drain pipe 3 is rotatably connected to the lower side of the air intake seat 9, and the drain pipe 3 communicates with the interior of the air intake seat 9. The interior of the air intake seat 9 has an opening that communicates with the interior of the base 1. The drain pipe 3 is connected to the air intake seat 9 through a sealed bearing. When the exhaust fan 2 in the base 1 is activated, the exhaust fan 2 draws the moisture in the workshop into the base 1 and introduces it into the air intake seat 9 through the drain pipe 3, or directly into the interior of the base 1 through the air inlets 8. The airflow then enters the base 1 through the air intake seat 9 and is then discharged to the outside of the workshop from the base 1, thus achieving rapid dehumidification of the workshop.

[0024] Several heat-conducting plates 4 are fixedly installed on both the upper and lower sides of the drain pipe 3. The drain pipe 3 is made of copper and is connected to an electric heating element installed on the device base 1. The heat-conducting plates 4 and the copper pipe are connected to the drain pipe 3, which can accelerate the dissipation of moisture in the workshop, making the workshop dry and preventing moisture from condensing on the ceiling and causing condensate to drip into the workshop, affecting the hygiene of food processing.

[0025] The drainage pipe 3 has several air inlets 13 evenly distributed on both sides. A bevel gear 7 is fixed on the outside of the driven fan 5, and a bevel gear 6 is fixed at the junction of the drainage pipe 3. The bevel gear 6 meshes with the corresponding bevel gear 7 on the inside. A torsion spring is provided at the junction of the drainage pipe 3. When the induced draft fan 2 is started, the airflow enters the device base 1 through several air inlets 8, driving the driven fan 5 to rotate. When the airflow is not strong or intermittent, the torsion spring at the junction of the drainage pipe 3, along with the meshing bevel gear 6 and bevel gear 7, can drive the drainage pipe 3 under the air inlet base 9 to swing. The swinging airflow not only enters the pipe through the port of the drainage pipe 3, but also enters the drainage pipe 3 through several air inlets 13. The swinging drainage pipe 3 can accelerate the absorption of the surrounding moisture. Several heat-conducting plates 4 that swing back and forth with the drainage pipe 3 can accelerate the rapid evaporation of moisture in the workshop.

[0026] An air outlet 10 is provided at the center of the upper side of the device base 1. One-way valve plates 11 are rotatably connected to the device base 1 on both the left and right sides inside the air outlet 10. A shielding block 12 is installed on the lower side of the air outlet 10. Both one-way valve plates 11 are located above the shielding block 12, and a torsion spring is provided at the junction of the one-way valve plates 11. The moisture introduced into the device base 1 by the exhaust fan 2 is compressed by the airflow through the upper left and right one-way valve plates 11, opening the air outlet 10 at the center of the upper side. The setting of the one-way valve plates 11 can prevent the exhaust fan 2 from introducing external air, ensuring that the moisture is discharged from the workshop to the outside.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
