Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soybean product processing technology, specifically a rapid drying mechanism for soybean product processing. Background Technology

[0002] Soy products are a traditional food in my country with a long history. Based on different processing methods, they can be broadly divided into non-fermented soy products, fermented soy products, and other soy products. Non-fermented soy products include soy milk, tofu, soy milk curd, dried tofu, tofu skin, and vegetarian chicken; fermented soy products include fermented black beans, soy sauce, fermented bean curd, and soy sauce; other soy products include bean sprouts, boiled beans, and stir-fried beans.

[0003] A search of existing technology reveals that publication number CN215412821U discloses a soybean product dryer. It includes a dryer housing, with a disassembly cover embedded at one end of the housing, and disassembly handles symmetrically connected to one end of the disassembly cover. A control switch is installed at the other end of the dryer housing. A drying and dehumidification mechanism is installed inside the dryer housing, comprising a dehumidification chamber, an air inlet, a condenser, a drain cover, a guide pipe, a heating chamber, and a heating element. A dehumidification chamber is installed on the bottom inner wall of the dryer housing, with air inlets evenly spaced at the top. A condenser is installed on the inner wall of one end of the dehumidification chamber, and a drain cover is embedded at one end of the dehumidification chamber. Guide pipes are evenly and symmetrically connected to one end of the dryer housing, and a heating chamber is fixedly installed between the upper and lower guide pipes. A heating element is installed on the inner wall of one end of the heating chamber. The comparative document describes a mechanism that allows for the placement of bean product trays along adjustable grooves between reinforcing plates. Adjusting the number of trays enables quick and convenient drying of varying quantities of bean products, and also facilitates rapid removal of the dried products, increasing drying and removal efficiency. However, the trays themselves are heavy, and their removal is hindered by the combined weight of the trays and the bean products, thus affecting the removal efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rapid drying mechanism for processing soybean products to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: it includes a drying oven body, the drying oven body has an internal cavity, an inlet and outlet are provided on one side of the drying oven body, a sealing door is movably connected to the inlet and outlet, a drying rack is slidably connected inside the cavity of the drying oven body, an ejection mechanism is provided inside the drying oven body, and a drive mechanism is provided on the back of the drying oven body.

[0006] Preferably, the ejection mechanism includes four sliding grooves, which are evenly arranged on the inner wall of the drying chamber body. A piston push rod is slidably connected in the four sliding grooves. One end of the piston push rod is fixedly connected to a railing, which extends into the cavity of the drying chamber body. A connecting rod is provided between the railings.

[0007] Preferably, a transmission pipe is provided on one side of the sliding groove, and one side of the transmission pipe is connected to the drive mechanism.

[0008] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a heating chamber, which is disposed inside the drying chamber body. A feeding port is provided on one side of the heating chamber, and the outlet of the heating chamber is connected to a transmission pipe. An adjustment switch is provided between the heating chamber and the transmission pipe, and a pressure relief valve is provided on one side of the heating chamber.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the drying rack is provided with transport rollers, and the drying rack is provided with multiple support plates.

[0010] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are: it can apply a pushing force to the drying rack when it needs to be removed, helping workers to push out the dried rack after drying. This reduces the burden on workers, improves work efficiency, and facilitates maintenance. When the drying chamber body heats the bean products inside, it heats the liquid in the heating chamber, which then turns into steam and expands. After drying, the sealing door is opened first, followed by the adjustment switch. The steam is then transported to the ejection mechanism through the transmission pipe. The steam pushes the piston rod in the sliding groove, causing it to push outwards, which in turn pushes the drying rack outwards. When the pressure inside the heating chamber is too high, the steam will be released from the pressure relief valve to prevent damage due to excessive pressure. Attached Figure Description
