Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment technology, and in particular to a smart container for mushroom cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] The intelligent mushroom drying chamber is a specialized device for drying and roasting mushrooms, widely used in the edible mushroom processing industry. It typically uses an air-source heat pump as the heat source and a smart temperature control system to precisely regulate temperature and humidity, ensuring the mushrooms are dehydrated and dried in an optimal environment, thus preserving their nutrients and natural flavor. The drying chamber features multiple layers of breathable mesh racks to facilitate even heating of the mushrooms, while also providing excellent ventilation and dehumidification, improving drying efficiency. This equipment is easy to operate, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly, suitable for processing various mushrooms such as shiitake, king oyster, and enoki mushrooms, making it an indispensable tool in the modern edible mushroom industry.

[0003] Existing intelligent mushroom drying chambers have certain shortcomings in their structural design. Typically, hot air enters from one end of the drying chamber, resulting in uneven temperature distribution throughout the chamber. Areas near the hot air inlet are hotter, while areas farther away are relatively colder, creating a significant temperature difference. Simultaneously, the air velocity distribution within the drying chamber shows a gradual decrease from the inlet to the outlet, leading to a large air velocity difference. Due to these temperature and air velocity differences, mushrooms in different locations within the drying chamber are heated unevenly during the drying process. Mushrooms near the hot air inlet dry faster, potentially even becoming over-dried, while those farther away dry significantly slower, affecting overall drying efficiency and product quality consistency. Therefore, there is still considerable room for improvement in the design of the hot air circulation system in existing intelligent mushroom drying chambers. It is necessary to propose a new type of intelligent mushroom drying chamber that can effectively reduce the temperature and air velocity differences within the drying chamber and improve drying uniformity to meet the higher requirements of the edible mushroom processing industry for product quality and production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a smart mushroom container.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A smart mushroom drying room includes a drying chamber with an openable and closable door at one end, and an air-source heat pump dryer located at the other end of the drying chamber. The air-source heat pump dryer has an air inlet, a hot air outlet, and a return air inlet. An equipment room for installing the air-source heat pump dryer is located at one end of the drying chamber, and the end of the equipment room away from the drying chamber is open. The return air inlet is connected to the lower part of the drying chamber through a return air duct. An upward-extending vertical pipe is provided on the hot air outlet, and the upper end of the vertical pipe is connected to a horizontal pipe near the top of the drying chamber. Three branch pipes are arranged at intervals on the horizontal pipe. The three branch pipes extend into the drying chamber and extend to the other end of the drying chamber. Several air distribution vents are provided on the branch pipes, in the portion located inside the drying chamber. Exhaust pipes are arranged along the length of the drying chamber on both sides of the bottom of the drying chamber. Several exhaust vents are provided on the exhaust pipes, which extend to the equipment room, and each end of the exhaust pipe is connected to an exhaust fan. The exhaust vents of the exhaust fans are close to the air inlet.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an air inlet pipe is provided on the air inlet, and the air outlet of the dehumidifying fan is connected to the air inlet pipe through a pipe.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, a protective net is provided on the air inlet pipe.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the riser, horizontal pipe and branch pipe are rectangular air ducts, which are connected to the drying chamber through supports and hangers.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the dehumidification pipe is a rectangular duct with a strip-shaped opening for the dehumidification outlet.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, a protective railing is detachably connected to the open end of the drying chamber.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the height of the guardrail is not less than 800mm.

[0013] The above technical solution has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. This utility model uses branch pipes to distribute hot air reasonably, so that the hot air can be more evenly diffused to each area after entering the drying room. This effectively reduces the temperature difference and wind speed difference inside the drying room, improves the heating uniformity of mushrooms during the drying process, avoids uneven drying caused by excessively high local temperature or low wind speed, and thus improves drying efficiency and product quality consistency.

[0015] 2. This utility model guides the hot air discharged during the dehumidification process back to the evaporator of the air source heat pump dryer by setting a return pipe. Since the temperature of the discharged hot air is higher than the ambient air temperature, it can effectively increase the air temperature around the evaporator, enhance the heat absorption capacity of the evaporator, and thus improve the working efficiency of the air source heat pump dryer. At the same time, this structure realizes the recovery and reuse of waste heat in the hot air, further improving the thermal energy utilization rate of the system. Under the premise of ensuring the drying effect, it effectively reduces the overall energy consumption of the equipment, achieving the effect of energy saving and environmental protection.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] As attached Figure 1-4As shown, a smart mushroom drying room includes a drying chamber 2 with an openable and closable door 1 at one end, and an air-source heat pump dryer 3 located at the other end of the drying chamber 2. The air-source heat pump dryer 3 has an air inlet 4, a hot air outlet 5, and a return air outlet 7. In this embodiment, the air-source heat pump dryer 3 is a KOS-KHR-72IICD air-source heat pump dryer from Kexin New Energy. The air inlet 4 provides a heat exchange air source for the evaporator. After the air exchanges heat with the evaporator of the air-source heat pump dryer 3, the low-temperature air is discharged from the air outlet 6 on the side of the air-source heat pump dryer 3. The air in the drying chamber 2 enters the condenser of the air-source heat pump dryer 3 through the return air outlet 7 and returns to the drying chamber 2 from the hot air outlet 5 to achieve circulating heating. An equipment room 8 for installing the air-source heat pump dryer 3 is provided at one end of the drying chamber 2. The end of the equipment room 8 away from the drying chamber 2 is open, and the equipment room 8 can... The air source heat pump dryer 3 is protected from wind and rain while ensuring heat exchange between it and the outside air. The return air vent 7 is connected to the lower part of the drying chamber 2 via the return air duct 9. A vertical pipe 10 extending upwards is installed on the hot air outlet 5. The upper end of the vertical pipe 10 is connected to a horizontal pipe 11 near the top of the drying chamber 2. Three branch pipes 12 are arranged at intervals on the horizontal pipe 11. The three branch pipes 12 extend into the drying chamber 2 and extend to the other end of the drying chamber 2. Several air distribution vents 13 are provided on the branch pipes 12 located inside the drying chamber 2. Exhaust pipes 14 arranged along the length of the drying chamber 2 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the drying chamber 2. Several exhaust ports 15 are provided on the exhaust pipes 14. The exhaust pipes 14 extend to the equipment room 8, and exhaust fans 16 are connected to the end of the exhaust fans 16. The exhaust ports 15 of the exhaust fans 16 are close to the air inlet 4.

[0026] As a preferred technical solution in this embodiment, an air inlet pipe 17 is provided on the air inlet 4, and the air outlet of the dehumidifying fan 16 is connected to the air inlet pipe 17 through a pipe 18. This structure can reintroduce the hot and humid air discharged by the dehumidifying fan 16 into the air inlet 4 of the air source heat pump dryer 3, further utilizing its higher temperature to improve the heat absorption efficiency of the evaporator, thereby improving the thermal energy utilization rate and reducing energy consumption.

[0027] As a preferred technical solution in this embodiment, a protective net 19 is provided on the air inlet pipe 17. The protective net 19 can effectively prevent external debris or insects from entering the air inlet system, avoid clogging the air duct or polluting the hot air, and ensure stable equipment operation and a clean, dry environment.

[0028] As a preferred technical solution in this embodiment, the riser 10, horizontal pipe 11, and branch pipe 12 are rectangular air ducts, which are connected to the drying chamber 2 through supports (not shown in the figure). Compared with circular air ducts, rectangular air ducts have better spatial adaptability and installation convenience. At the same time, the support connection method ensures the stability of the air duct structure, making it less prone to deformation, which helps to maintain the stability and uniformity of hot air delivery.

[0029] As a preferred technical solution in this embodiment, the dehumidification pipe 14 is a rectangular duct with a strip-shaped opening for the dehumidification port 15. The strip-shaped opening design allows for more uniform dehumidification, avoids uneven drying of mushrooms due to excessively high local humidity, and improves overall dehumidification efficiency and drying quality.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] As attached Figure 5 As shown, a smart mushroom processing cabin is described in this embodiment, which, based on Embodiment 1, has a protective railing 20 detachably connected to the open end of the drying chamber 2. The protective railing 20 prevents operators from accidentally touching high-temperature components or operating equipment inside the equipment chamber 8, improving equipment safety. The detachable structure also facilitates maintenance and cleaning. The rest is basically the same as in Embodiment 1.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the height of the protective barrier 20 is not less than 800mm. This height design meets human safety protection standards, effectively preventing personnel from approaching the equipment operating area and further improving the safety performance during equipment use.

[0033] During operation, the air source heat pump dryer 3 draws in external air or humid air recovered by the exhaust fan 16 through the air inlet 4. After heat exchange in the evaporator, the air becomes low-temperature air and is discharged from the side air outlet 6. Meanwhile, the air inside the drying chamber 2 enters the condenser of the air source heat pump dryer 3 through the return air inlet 7 for heating. The heated hot air is output from the hot air outlet 5, passes through the vertical pipe 10, the horizontal pipe 11, and three branch pipes 12 extending to the other end of the drying chamber 2, and is evenly distributed into the drying chamber 2 through the air distribution ports 13 on the branch pipes 12 to circulate and heat the mushrooms. Because the branch pipes 12 are evenly arranged along the length of the drying chamber 2 and are equipped with multiple air distribution ports 13, the hot air is evenly distributed within the drying chamber 2. The distribution is more uniform, effectively reducing the temperature and wind speed differences inside the drying chamber, and improving the uniformity and thermal efficiency of the drying process. At the same time, the dehumidification pipes 14 located at the bottom of both sides of the drying chamber 2 have multiple dehumidification ports 15 distributed along the length direction, which can realize multi-point synchronous dehumidification, significantly improving the dehumidification efficiency and avoiding the problem of uneven drying caused by local accumulation of moisture. Moisture is discharged through the dehumidification pipes 14 by the dehumidification fan 16, and some of the hot and humid air is reintroduced into the air intake system through the return pipe 18 to improve the heat absorption efficiency of the evaporator. The entire process effectively reduces energy consumption and improves drying efficiency and product quality through hot air circulation, waste heat recovery and efficient dehumidification structure.

[0034] The embodiments of this invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but these embodiments are not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of these embodiments, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of these embodiments.
