Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rapid drying of fragrances and flavorings, and more specifically, to a rapid drying device for the production of fragrances and flavorings. Background Technology

[0002] Flavorings and fragrances mainly refer to tropical plants with aromatic scents or preservative properties, such as pepper, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon. They are compounds or mixtures with pleasant aromas that can be used to formulate flavorings. Based on their source, they are classified as natural and synthetic flavorings; based on their use, they are categorized as flavorings for daily chemical products, food flavorings, and tobacco flavorings.

[0003] A search revealed that publication number CN221197889U discloses a rapid drying device for fragrance and flavor production, comprising a shell and a drying assembly. The shell has an inlet on one side of its upper part. The drying assembly includes an air pipe and gas nozzles, and is housed inside the shell. The air pipe is fixed to the lower part of the inner wall of the shell, and gas nozzles are evenly spaced on the air pipe. The drying assembly is used to heat the interior of the shell. The device includes a motor, gas nozzles, and a filter funnel. During use, the material falls into the filter funnel, and multiple gas nozzles dry the material at the bottom from all angles. Simultaneously, the motor drives a stirring rod to rotate inside the shell, continuously mixing the material and ensuring that most of the material comes into uniform contact with the high-temperature gas at the bottom. This solves the problem of uneven drying in current drying equipment, which greatly increases drying time. The inventors discovered the following problems with the existing technology during the development of this utility model:

[0004] However, the spices inside the shell will produce water vapor after being heated and dried. Since there is no vent to release the water vapor, the moisture in the spices cannot be quickly discharged from the shell after evaporation. Some of the water vapor that cannot be quickly discharged may still flow back into the shell, thus affecting the drying effect and efficiency of the spices inside the shell.

[0005] Therefore, a rapid drying device for the production of fragrances and flavors is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0023] 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.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] As attached Figures 1 to 4 The rapid drying device for fragrance and flavor production shown includes a housing 1, an air pipe 5 inside the housing 1, and a plurality of gas nozzles 6 connected to the surface of the air pipe 5. The gas nozzles 6 are inclined and their exhaust ports face the filter funnel 2. A dehumidification chamber 9 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the housing 1. An air pump 8 is installed on the outer wall of the housing 1 and below the dehumidification chamber 9. The output end of the air pump 8 is connected to the air pipe 5 through a connecting pipe 7. A connecting plate 14 is closed at the top of the dehumidification chamber 9. A detachable dehumidification plate 16 is bolted to the bottom of the connecting plate 14. The connecting plate 14 is connected to the top of the housing 1 through a telescopic tube. Two handles 15 are symmetrically welded to the top of the connecting plate 14 and are located on both sides of the telescopic tube. A heating wire 17 is installed on the bottom wall of the dehumidification chamber 9. A gravity detection component is installed inside the dehumidification chamber 9.

[0026] Specifically, when the telescopic pipe works in conjunction with the dehumidification box 9 and the air pump 8, the water vapor generated inside the shell 1 is quickly extracted and filtered and absorbed by the dehumidification plate 16, which contains a desiccant to absorb the water vapor. The water vapor is then discharged back into the shell 1 through the connecting pipe 7 to dry the fragrance inside the shell 1. This structure can quickly extract the water vapor evaporated inside the shell 1, preventing the water vapor from evaporating from the fragrance from remaining inside the shell 1 and dripping into the fragrance inside the shell 1, thus affecting the drying effect of the fragrance. On the other hand, it can also recycle the heat generated during drying.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] Based on Example 1, the solution in Example 1 will be further described in detail below with reference to the specific working method, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown below, see details:

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the device includes a signal controller 18, an alarm 19, a pressure sensor 20, and an elastic block 21. A mounting groove 10 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the dehumidification box 9. A connecting seat 11 is inserted into the mounting groove 10, and an elastic block 21 is fixedly provided on the bottom wall of the connecting seat 11. The pressure sensor 20 is installed on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 10, located directly below the elastic block 21. The signal controller 18 is installed on the outer wall of the dehumidification box 9, and an alarm 19 is installed on the outer wall of the dehumidification box 9, located to one side of the signal controller 18. A support spring is provided in the mounting groove 10, symmetrically positioned to the pressure sensor 20. Several slots 12 are formed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 10 for connecting... Several locking blocks 13, which are fixed at equal intervals on the base 11, are inserted into the slot 12 for connection. When the device is in use, the dehumidifying plate 16 absorbs water vapor, which causes a change in weight. Then, the pressure sensor 20 is squeezed by the connecting base 11 and the elastic block 21. The pressure sensor 20 detects the weight change of the dehumidifying plate 16 and converts the detected gravity change into an electrical signal. The signal controller 18 receives the electrical signal and compares it with a preset value range. When the detected gravity change is greater than the preset value range, the alarm 19 will be controlled to sound an alarm, reminding the staff to replace the dehumidifying plate 16 to avoid affecting the absorption and filtration effect of the dehumidifying plate 16 on the water vapor in the extracted gas.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, a filter funnel 2 is fixedly installed inside the housing 1. A stirring shaft 3 is rotatably connected inside the housing 1 at the central axis of the filter funnel 2. A servo motor for driving the stirring shaft 3 is bolted to the top of the housing 1. A stirring rod 4 is fixedly installed on the outside of the stirring shaft 3. A discharge port 25 is provided at the bottom of the filter funnel 2. A baffle 24 is movably installed at the discharge port 25. An electric push rod 26 is fixedly installed on the bottom wall inside the housing 1. The output end of the electric push rod 26 is connected to the baffle 24. A [further details about the installation are missing from the original text.] A guide trough 22 is provided, and an adapter port 23 matching the baffle 24 is opened on the guide trough 22. The servo motor drives the stirring shaft 3 and the stirring rod 4 to stir and mix the spices in the shell 1. Then, hot air is blown out through the gas nozzle 6 to dry the spices that are turning over in the shell 1. After drying, the electric push rod 26 drives the baffle 24 to move down until it is inserted into the adapter port 23 on the guide trough 22, so that the discharge port 25 at the bottom of the filter funnel 2 is exposed. Then, the dried spices in the shell 1 fall from the discharge port 25 onto the guide trough 22 and are discharged from the shell 1 through the guide trough 22.

[0031] The working process of this utility model is as follows: First, the water vapor generated in the shell 1 is quickly extracted by the cooperation of the telescopic tube with the dehumidification box 9 and the air pump 8. The water vapor in the gas is filtered and absorbed by the dehumidification plate 16. Then, it is discharged into the air pipe 5 through the connecting pipe 7. Next, it is discharged into the shell 1 through the multiple gas nozzles 6 set on the air pipe 5 to dry the fragrance in the shell 1.

[0032] Furthermore, the dehumidifying plate 16 absorbs water vapor, resulting in a change in weight. This change is then exerted by the connecting seat 11 and the elastic block 21 on the pressure sensor 20. The pressure sensor 20 detects the weight change of the dehumidifying plate 16 and converts the detected gravity change into an electrical signal. The signal controller 18 receives this electrical signal and compares it with a preset value range. When the detected gravity change exceeds the preset value range, the alarm 19 is activated to remind the staff to replace the dehumidifying plate 16 to avoid affecting its absorption and filtration effect on water vapor in the extracted gas. This is the working principle of a rapid drying device for the production of fragrances and flavors.
