Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a drying device, and more specifically, to a rapid drying device for Ganoderma lucidum raw materials. Background Technology

[0002] Reishi mushroom is a precious large fungus used for both medicinal and edible purposes. It is a traditional Chinese medicine and was recognized as a food-medicine homology substance by the National Health Commission and the State Administration for Market Regulation on November 25, 2019, making it very popular among consumers. Currently, the main products sold on the market are reishi spore powder, reishi fruiting bodies, and deep-processed reishi products made primarily from reishi spore powder or reishi fruiting bodies.

[0003] The open-air drying of Ganoderma lucidum is affected by the climate, especially wind and rain, which can easily introduce external impurities and affect the quality of the spore powder. When drying Ganoderma lucidum spore powder, due to the small size of the spore particles, ordinary mechanical drying is prone to uneven heating, and the air outlet is easily scorched, oily, and deteriorated. In addition, the mechanical equipment is expensive, costly, and has low drying efficiency, making it impractical. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a rapid drying device for Ganoderma lucidum raw materials that is unaffected by climate and allows for rapid drying.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: A rapid drying device for Ganoderma lucidum raw materials includes a box and a sealed door set on the box. A heater is connected to the bottom of one side of the box through a pipe. A uniform air chamber is provided in the box side that cooperates with the heater. An exhaust air chamber is provided in the box on the side opposite to the uniform air chamber. The exhaust air chamber is provided with several exhaust outlets that lead to the outside. Several layers of material racks are detachably provided in the box between the uniform air chamber and the exhaust air chamber.

[0006] The material rack includes a mesh frame that can be detachably installed inside the box via a bracket for placing Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies, and a tray for holding Ganoderma lucidum spore powder can be detachably placed on the mesh frame.

[0007] Several air outlets are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the air distribution chamber between two adjacent exhaust chambers, and air inlets corresponding to the air outlets are provided on the exhaust chamber.

[0008] In the above-mentioned rapid drying device for Ganoderma lucidum raw materials, two vertically distributed air holes are provided on the outer wall of the uniform air chamber between two adjacent air exhaust chambers, and a first air guide plate is provided on the outer wall of the uniform air chamber between the two air holes; several first baffles with progressively increasing lengths are provided at the bottom of the first air guide plate.

[0009] The length of the first air guide plate is no greater than half the distance between the air distribution chamber and the exhaust chamber. A second air guide plate is provided on the outer wall of the exhaust chamber, and the second air guide plate is located above the air outlet. Several second baffles with progressively increasing lengths are provided at the bottom of the second air guide plate, and at least one of the lower ends of the second baffles is located below the first air guide plate.

[0010] In the above-mentioned rapid drying device for Ganoderma lucidum raw materials, the first baffle plate includes an inclined plate, and an air guide portion is connected to the lower end of the inclined plate towards the material rack.

[0011] In the above-mentioned rapid drying device for Ganoderma lucidum raw materials, the bottom end of the air inlet is provided with a third air guide plate facing the inside of the exhaust chamber, and the third air guide plate is inclined upward.

[0012] In the above-mentioned rapid drying device for Ganoderma lucidum raw materials, a flow guide block is provided in the air distribution chamber, which is opposite to the air outlet of the warm air blower. The side of the flow guide block opposite to the warm air blower is inclined upward.

[0013] With the above-described structure, this invention isolates the material from external environmental interference through the enclosure, and the uniform air distribution chamber distributes the hot air provided by the heater evenly above each layer of the material rack to remove moisture from the Ganoderma lucidum raw material, enabling rapid drying of the Ganoderma lucidum at any time. Especially when drying Ganoderma lucidum spore powder, it achieves rapid drying even under relatively low hot air temperature and relatively slow wind speed, ensuring that the Ganoderma lucidum spore powder does not scorch or lose oil due to high temperature or be blown away by high wind speed.

[0014] At the same time, the hot air output from the uniform air chamber is blown horizontally into the exhaust chamber on the opposite side for collection and output, reducing the direct rise of hot air inside the chamber and avoiding the transfer of moisture from the lower layer of Ganoderma lucidum raw materials to the upper layer of Ganoderma lucidum raw materials, which would affect the drying efficiency of the upper layer.

[0015] In addition, placing Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies on a wire mesh rack can quickly dry them. The wire mesh rack and the tray are used together to achieve rapid drying of all Ganoderma lucidum raw materials (including Ganoderma lucidum spore powder and Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies).

[0022] See Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model discloses a rapid drying device for Ganoderma lucidum raw materials, comprising a housing 1 and a sealed door disposed on the housing 1. A heater 2 is connected to one side of the bottom of the housing 1 via a pipe. An air distribution chamber 3 is provided in the side of the housing 1 that cooperates with the heater 2. An exhaust chamber 4 is provided in the housing 1 on the opposite side of the air distribution chamber 3. The exhaust chamber 4 is provided with several exhaust outlets 5 that lead to the outside. Several layers of material racks 6 are detachably disposed in the housing 1 between the air distribution chamber 3 and the exhaust chamber 4. The installation of a sealed door on the housing is prior art, and its specific structure and connection method are common knowledge to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0023] The described heater can control the heating and ventilation times through a temperature control component, a fan speed control component, and a timer switch, and can also control the ventilation speed at a set speed, effectively controlling the dryness of the Ganoderma lucidum product. The temperature control, fan speed control, and time control of the heater are common knowledge to those skilled in the art and can be implemented using existing equipment and control software. They are not the technical solutions that this utility model seeks to protect, and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0024] By isolating the external environment from the enclosure, the uniform air chamber distributes the hot air provided by the heater evenly to the top of each shelf to remove moisture from the Ganoderma lucidum raw materials (including Ganoderma lucidum spore powder and Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies), enabling rapid drying of Ganoderma lucidum at any time.

[0025] The material rack 6 includes a wire mesh rack 6a detachably mounted inside the housing 1 via a support for holding Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies, and a tray 6b detachably mounted on the wire mesh rack 6a for holding Ganoderma lucidum spore powder. By setting the wire mesh rack and tray to hold Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies and Ganoderma lucidum spore powder respectively, different Ganoderma lucidum raw materials can be dried according to production needs. The wire mesh rack will not move under stress during operation, so it can be placed directly on the support for easy assembly and disassembly. Furthermore, pulleys or other structures for easy pulling can be provided between the wire mesh rack and the support; these are common knowledge to those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0026] During the drying of Ganoderma lucidum spore powder, using hot air at relatively low temperatures and relatively slow speeds allows for the rapid removal of water vapor from the spore powder. This ensures that the spore powder does not scorch due to high temperatures, leading to oiliness and deterioration, while also preventing it from being blown away by excessively fast airflow. During the drying of Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies, a mesh frame increases the contact surface with the fruiting bodies, and using hot air at relatively high temperatures and relatively fast speeds removes water vapor, achieving rapid and efficient drying of the fruiting bodies.

[0027] Several air outlets 7 are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the uniform air distribution chamber 3 between two adjacent exhaust chambers 4, and air inlets 8 corresponding to the air outlets 7 are provided on the exhaust chamber 4. The warm air blower provides sufficient speed for the hot air, so that the hot air blown out of the air outlets has sufficient speed to blow into the air inlet on the opposite side. The hot air output from the uniform air distribution chamber is blown horizontally into the exhaust chamber on the opposite side for collection and output, reducing the direct rise of hot air in the chamber and avoiding the transfer of moisture from the lower layer of Ganoderma lucidum raw materials to the upper layer of Ganoderma lucidum raw materials, which would affect the drying efficiency of the upper layer.

[0028] The volume of the exhaust chamber is larger than that of the uniform air chamber, so that the rising speed of the hot air in the exhaust chamber is less than the speed of the hot air output from the uniform air chamber. This can prevent the hot air from returning to the housing through the air inlet when the exhaust chamber is full of hot air.

[0029] In this embodiment, the outer wall of the uniform air chamber 3 between the two adjacent exhaust chambers 4 is provided with two vertically distributed exhaust holes 7, and the outer wall of the uniform air chamber 3 between the two exhaust holes 7 is provided with a first air guide plate 9; at the bottom of the first air guide plate 9, there are several first baffles 10 with progressively increasing lengths.

[0030] The length of the first air guide plate 9 is no greater than half the distance between the air distribution chamber 3 and the exhaust chamber 4. A second air guide plate 11 is provided on the outer wall of the exhaust chamber 4, and the second air guide plate 11 is located above the air outlet 7. Several second baffle plates 12 with progressively increasing lengths are provided at the bottom of the second air guide plate 11, and the lower end of at least one second baffle plate 12 is located below the first air guide plate 9. The hot air discharged from the upper and lower air outlets is guided to both ends of the material rack by the first air guide plate and the second air guide plate, and the hot air is guided downward by the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate, so that the hot air can fully contact the Ganoderma lucidum raw material and ensure the drying effect.

[0031] Meanwhile, the first and second air guide plates can block the upward flow of hot air and guide the hot air to flow horizontally into the exhaust chamber, further reducing the amount of moisture that the hot air brings to the upper layer of Ganoderma lucidum raw materials from the lower layer, thus ensuring the overall drying efficiency.

[0032] Preferably, the first baffle 10 includes an inclined plate 10a, with a guide section 10b connected to the lower end of the inclined plate 10a, facing the material rack 6. The structure of the second baffle is the same as that of the first baffle. The inclined plate can effectively extend the hot air flow path and guide the hot air to contact the Ganoderma lucidum raw material below. Compared with the vertical baffle, it can avoid the hot air being slowed down due to excessive resistance during collision, ensuring that the hot air can flow smoothly in the horizontal direction.

[0033] In this embodiment, the bottom of the air inlet 8 is provided with a third air guide plate 13 facing the inside of the exhaust cavity 4, and the third air guide plate 13 is inclined upward. When hot air reaches the air inlet, it flows upward under the guidance of the third air guide plate. At the same time, the hot air from the lower side of the exhaust cavity will be blocked and guided by the third air guide plate when it passes the upper air inlet during its ascent, preventing it from flowing out of the air inlet.

[0034] In this embodiment, the air distribution cavity 3 is provided with a flow guide block 14 opposite to the air outlet of the heater 2. The side of the flow guide block 14 opposite to the heater 2 is inclined upwards. The flow guide block guides the hot air blown out by the heater upwards, allowing it to flow to the upper part of the air distribution cavity more quickly, and also prevents the hot air from washing away the inner wall of the air distribution cavity, reducing wear on the inner wall of the air distribution cavity.

[0035] During operation, place the Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies or the tray containing Ganoderma lucidum spore powder on the wire mesh frame, close the sealed door, and turn on the heater. After entering the air distribution chamber, the hot air flows upward under the guidance of the baffle block and enters the chamber through the air outlet. Guided by the first and second air guide plates, the hot air dries the Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies or the tray containing Ganoderma lucidum spore powder, and then exits through the air inlet into the exhaust chamber.

[0036] The above-described embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are only used to facilitate the illustration of the present utility model. They are not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Any person skilled in the art who makes partial modifications or alterations to the technical content disclosed in the present utility model without departing from the scope of the technical features of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical features of the present utility model.
