Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dried noodle production technology, specifically a drying device for dried noodle production. Background Technology
[0002] Dried noodles are made by adding salt, alkali, and water to wheat flour, then hanging them to dry and cutting them into noodles of a certain length. They are thin as hair, white, glossy, and resilient, and can be stored and cooked for a long time. They come in round and thin varieties as well as wide and flat varieties. The main types include ordinary dried noodles, fancy dried noodles, and handmade dried noodles. According to the types of ingredients, there are egg dried noodles, tomato dried noodles, spinach dried noodles, carrot dried noodles, kelp dried noodles, lysine dried noodles, etc.
[0003] An investigation revealed that a Chinese utility model patent discloses a rapid drying device for noodle production (publication number: CN220402889U), which includes a base plate, a support plate fixedly connected to the base plate, a support frame fixedly connected to the support plate, a slide frame slidably connected inside the support frame, a plurality of slots being provided on the side of the slide frame, the slide frame engaging with a retaining ring through the slots, a turntable being provided on the side of the retaining ring, and the turntable engaging with a rotating rod through a bearing.
[0004] In the aforementioned patent, by setting gears, cams, and locking blocks, the drying device can adjust the height of the drying rod during use, allowing the rod to dry noodles of different lengths. This effectively prevents the noodles from touching the ground due to excessive length during drying, thus ensuring the applicability of the drying device. Furthermore, the height of the drying rod can be self-locked to prevent slippage after height adjustment. However, relying solely on a single drying rod for drying noodles can cause the noodles, containing moisture, to shake during placement, potentially leading to them sticking together. Additionally, the ends of the noodles may obstruct each other when placed on the drying rod, resulting in uneven drying, prolonged drying time, and even causing some noodles to spoil due to insufficient drying.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a drying device for noodle production to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] This utility model provides a drying device for noodle production, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the drying device for noodle production includes a base plate 1, a fixed cylinder 2 fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1, a drying rod 3 set above the fixed cylinder 2, a ventilation groove 4 opened inside the drying rod 3, a fixed frame 5 fixedly installed at the bottom of the drying rod 3, and a support mechanism set inside the fixed frame 5 for spreading the noodles.
[0028] The support mechanism includes a rotating rod 6 rotatably mounted on a fixed frame 5, a groove 7 opened inside the fixed frame 5, a slider 8 slidably mounted inside the groove 7, a connecting rod 9 rotatably mounted on one side of the slider 8, and a support rod 10 fixedly mounted between the two rotating rods 6.
[0029] Multiple ventilation slots 4 are provided, and the ventilation slots 4 are distributed in a linear array on the drying rod 3. The end of the connecting rod 9 away from the slider 8 is rotatably connected to one side of the rotating rod 6.
[0030] When using this drying device for noodle production, first move the base plate 1 to a suitable position, then hang the noodles on the drying rods 3. Move the slider 8 upward along the slide groove 7. The movement of the slider 8 drives the connecting rod 9 to move. Since one end of the connecting rod 9 is rotatably connected to one side of the rotating rod 6, the rotating rod 6 rotates around the position rotatably connected to the fixed frame 5 as the center, thereby adjusting the distance between the two support rods 10, spreading the noodles out for drying, increasing the drying area and improving drying efficiency. At the same time, an external fan blows air through the ventilation slot 4 onto the noodles on the drying rods 3, accelerating the drying speed and reducing the sticking of the noodles. In addition, universal wheels are fixedly installed at the bottom of the base plate 1, making it easy to move the drying device and improving the flexibility of the device.
[0031] Furthermore, to facilitate limiting the position of slider 8, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the inside of the fixing frame 5 is provided with a control groove 11, and a plug rod 12 is slidably connected inside the control groove 11. The plug rod 12 passes through the control groove 11, and a spring 13 is provided in the control groove 11.
[0032] Spring 13 is sleeved on the side surface of insert rod 12. One end of spring 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of control groove 11, and the other end of spring 13 is fixedly connected to one side of insert rod 12. A slot 14 for inserting insert rod 12 is provided on one side of slider 8.
[0033] When using this drying device for noodle production, if the slider 8 needs to be moved to the top of the chute 7, both support rods 10 are fully open. During the movement, the slider 8 first contacts the inclined surface of the insertion rod 12, thus pressing the insertion rod 12 outward. The insertion rod 12 is pressed and moves into the control groove 11. The spring 13 contracts under force. When the insertion rod 12 moves to the position corresponding to the slot 14, the elastic force of the spring 13 pops the insertion rod 12 out, and the insertion rod 12 is inserted into the inside of the slot 14, limiting the slider 8 and preventing it from moving. When the support rods 10 need to be retracted, the insertion rod 12 is pulled outward to move the insertion rod 12 out of the slot 14, thus adjusting the position of the slider 8. The operation is simple and convenient, improving the practicality of the drying device.
[0034] It should be noted that, in order to facilitate the adjustment of the height of drying rod 3, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the two fixed cylinders 2 are respectively slidably connected with lifting rods 15 and threaded rods 16, and the tops of lifting rods 15 and threaded rods 16 are fixedly connected to the bottom of fixed frame 5.
[0035] One of the fixed cylinders 2 is fixedly connected to the top of a fixed box 17. A worm gear 18 is rotatably connected inside the fixed box 17. A threaded rod 16 passes through the worm gear 18. A threaded hole that matches the threaded rod 16 is opened inside the worm gear 18. A worm 19 is rotatably connected inside the fixed box 17.
[0036] The worm 19 meshes with the worm wheel 18. A handwheel 20 is rotatably connected to one side of the fixed box 17. One end of the worm 19 passes through the fixed box 17 and is fixedly connected to one side of the handwheel 20.
[0037] When using this drying device for noodle production, turning the handwheel 20 causes the worm gear 19 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm wheel 18 to rotate. The worm wheel 18 then drives the threaded rod 16 to rotate. Since the lifting rod 15 is slidably connected to the fixed cylinder 2 and is not affected by the rotation of the threaded rod 16, the lifting rod 15 rises and falls along with the threaded rod 16. Under the rotation of the worm wheel 18, the threaded rod 16 moves up and down along the inside of the fixed cylinder 2. The threaded rod 16 drives the fixed frame 5 to move up and down, which in turn drives the drying rod 3 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the drying rod 3. This allows the drying device to adapt to the production needs of noodles of different heights, further improving its practicality and flexibility.
[0038] 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.
