Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of condiment production equipment, and in particular to a low-temperature vacuum drying equipment for condiments. Background Technology

[0002] Seasonings are commonly used materials in the food processing industry. During the production process, seasonings may require drying of finished or semi-finished products. To prevent a decline in the performance of seasonings, low-temperature drying is typically used. Low-temperature drying refers to drying seasonings at temperatures below 50 degrees Celsius to ensure that their performance is not compromised.

[0003] However, in the existing technology, when vacuum drying seasonings, the seasonings are directly placed in the vacuum drying box for drying. During the drying process, the seasonings remain stationary in the vacuum drying box, and the seasonings are dried in a static manner, resulting in low drying efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, existing vacuum drying devices for condiments suffer from the technical problem of low drying efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This utility model provides a low-temperature vacuum drying equipment for seasonings, which solves the technical problem of low drying efficiency of seasonings in existing vacuum drying devices.

[0006] Some implementation schemes for solving the above-mentioned technical problems include:

[0007] A low-temperature vacuum drying equipment for condiments includes a vacuum drying chamber;

[0008] A tray, which is placed inside the vacuum drying oven, is used to hold condiments;

[0009] and a drive assembly, the drive assembly being used to drive the tray to rotate within the vacuum drying chamber and to cause one side of the tray to swing up and down relative to a horizontal plane within the drying chamber;

[0010] The drive assembly includes a motor, and the tray is rotatably connected to the output shaft of the motor via a connector. The drive assembly also includes a drive ring that drives the tray to swing up and down relative to a horizontal plane. The side wall of the drive ring is provided with a drive groove, and a connecting rod is provided between the drive groove and the tray. The lower end of the connecting rod is provided with a drive block that cooperates with the drive groove, and the upper end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the tray. The rotation axis of the connecting rod relative to the tray is parallel to the rotation axis of the tray relative to the motor. During the rotation of the tray relative to the drive ring, the drive groove drives the tray to swing up and down relative to the horizontal plane through the drive groove, the drive block, and the connecting rod.

[0011] Preferably, the connector includes a base mounted on the output shaft, and the connector also includes an upper seat mounted on the tray. The base is provided with a connecting groove that is larger than a hemisphere, and the upper seat is provided with a connecting ball that mates with the connecting groove. The depth of the connecting ball within the connecting groove is greater than the radius of the connecting ball.

[0012] Preferably, the connecting ball is provided with an arc-shaped ridge to prevent the upper seat from rotating relative to the base about the axis of the base, the base is provided with an arc-shaped groove that mates with the arc-shaped ridge, the arc-shaped groove communicates with the connecting groove, and the axis of the arc-shaped ridge is coaxial with the axis of the arc-shaped groove.

[0013] Preferably, the upper end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the tray via a pin, and the axis of the pin is parallel to the axis of the arc-shaped groove.

[0014] Preferably, the tray is provided with connecting plates, there are two connecting plates, a part of the connecting rod is located between the two connecting plates, and both the connecting plates and the connecting rod are provided with pin holes that cooperate with the pin shaft.

[0015] Preferably, the connecting plate and the tray are integral structures, and a retaining ring is provided around the tray to prevent the seasonings in the tray from spilling out. The retaining ring and the tray are integral structures. The tray is also provided with annular protrusions to prevent the seasonings from sliding along the tray. The annular protrusions are provided on the upper surface of the tray.

[0016] Preferably, the base is inserted into the output shaft, the output shaft is provided with a post, the base is provided with a socket that mates with the post, and the post has a polygonal cross-sectional shape.

[0017] Preferably, the drive block is spherical, the drive block and the connecting rod are an integral structure, and the cross-sectional shape of the connecting rod is polygonal.

[0018] Preferably, the drive ring is fixed to the motor, the drive groove is disposed on the outer wall of the drive ring, and the drive groove is recessed into the outer wall of the drive ring.

[0019] Preferably, the vacuum drying oven includes a box body and a door disposed in the box body, and a drying component is also disposed inside the box body, the drying component being located directly above the tray.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0021] By incorporating a drive mechanism that continuously tumbles the seasonings within the tray during the drying process, full contact between the seasonings and the drying environment is ensured, significantly improving drying efficiency. Compared to traditional static drying methods, this dynamic drying method removes moisture from the seasonings more quickly and shortens drying time.

[0022] Because the seasonings are constantly tumbled during the drying process, it ensures that each portion of the seasonings is dried evenly, avoiding the situation where some seasonings are over-dried while others are under-dried.

[0023] Low-temperature drying ensures that the performance of seasonings does not deteriorate during the drying process, preserving their original flavor and nutritional components. Simultaneously, dynamic drying reduces the sticking and clumping of seasonings during the drying process, further improving their quality.

[0024] Due to its improved drying efficiency and shorter drying time, this low-temperature vacuum drying equipment for condiments also has a significant advantage in terms of energy consumption. At the same time, the vacuum drying environment can reduce the emission of harmful gases, aligning with the principles of energy conservation and environmental protection.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a low-temperature vacuum drying equipment for condiments includes a vacuum drying chamber 1;

[0040] Tray 2, which is placed inside the vacuum drying oven 1, is used to hold seasonings;

[0041] and drive assembly 3, the drive assembly 3 being used to drive the tray 2 to rotate inside the vacuum drying chamber 1 and to cause one side of the tray 2 to swing up and down relative to the horizontal plane inside the drying chamber;
