The conveyor belt 102 is a commonly used component that can be used to convey edible agricultural products. Its specific structure and working principle will not be described here.

[0034] The drying assembly 200 includes a fixed box 201 mounted on the drying chamber 100. The inner wall of the fixed box 201 is equipped with an electric heating tube 205 and two sets of fans 208. The air inlet of the fixed box 201 is connected to an installation frame 203. The inner wall of the installation frame 203 is equipped with a dustproof net 204 and a water-absorbing cotton layer 206 from top to bottom, which is used for drying edible agricultural products.

[0035] Replacement component 300 includes two sets of side grooves 301 formed on the mounting frame 203. A rotating plate 303 is rotatably connected in each of the two sets of side grooves 301. Both sides of the fixed box 201 are provided with connecting grooves 302 for disassembling and assembling the mounting frame 203.

[0036] In use, the conveyor belt 102 transports the agricultural products directly below the fixed box 201.

The hot air is blown onto the agricultural products on the conveyor belt 102 from directly below and from both sides, achieving uniform drying of the agricultural products. At the same time, the dustproof net 204 and the absorbent cotton layer 206 can block dust and other impurities and moisture in the air, improving the drying effect of the agricultural products. The rotating plate 303 of the replaceable component 300 can be located inside or away from the connecting groove 302. The mounting frame 203 is easy to disassemble and install, facilitating the replacement of the dustproof net 204 and the absorbent cotton layer 206, ensuring the drying effect of the agricultural products.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the previous embodiment, a feeding hopper 101 is fixedly connected to the drying box 100, and the discharge port of the feeding hopper 101 is directly facing the conveyor belt 102. The feeding hopper 101 is used to add edible agricultural products, so that the edible agricultural products are transported to the conveyor belt 102.

[0039] The drying assembly 200 also includes air supply channels 202 fixed to the two side walls of the fixed box 201. The ends of the two sets of air supply channels 202 away from the fixed box 201 are connected to the inner cavity of the drying box 100. The two sets of air supply channels 202 blow hot air evenly onto the edible agricultural products on the conveyor belt 102 from both sides.

[0040] The inner wall of the fixed box 201 is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 207, and both sets of fans 208 are fixedly connected to the fixed frame 207.

[0041] The replacement component 300 also includes friction strips 305 fixed to the two side walls of the rotating plate 303. Both ends of the rotating plate 303 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the side groove 301 through bearings. After the mounting frame 203 is installed, the friction strips 305 are in close contact with the inner wall of the connecting groove 302 to fix the mounting frame 203. When the mounting frame 203 is disassembled, the rotating plate 303 is rotated to make the rotating plate 303 detach from the connecting groove 302 and keep it in a vertical state. Once the position of the mounting frame 203 is no longer restricted, it can be removed, making it easy to remove the mounting frame 203 from the fixed box 201. The dustproof net 204 and the water-absorbing cotton layer 206 are easy to replace.

[0042] The absorbent cotton layer 206 and the dustproof net 204 are movably connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 203 by snap-fit. The absorbent cotton layer 206 has multiple sets of through-holes. The snap-fit ​​dustproof net 204 and absorbent cotton layer 206 are easy to disassemble and replace, and the air holes are used for air circulation.

[0043] The drying chamber 100 has a feeding port on its side wall, and a feeding ramp is installed on the feeding port; the feeding ramp is used to feed the dried agricultural products.

[0044] The rotating plate 303 is fixedly connected to a handle 304, and the hand-held end of the handle 304 is covered with an anti-slip rubber sleeve. The handle 304 facilitates the rotation of the rotating plate 303, and the anti-slip rubber sleeve plays an anti-slip role, preventing the hand from slipping off when holding the handle 304.

[0045] During use, the electrical terminals of each electrical device are electrically connected to the power supply and the electrical terminals of the controller via wires. Edible agricultural products are added into the drying chamber 100 through the feeding hopper 101.

Two sets of fans 208 work to draw air, and the electric heating tube 205 works to heat the air drawn in by the fans 208. The hot air is blown from the bottom and from both sides of the two sets of air supply channels 202 onto the edible agricultural products on the conveyor belt 102, achieving uniform drying of the edible agricultural products. At the same time, the dustproof net 204 and the water-absorbing cotton layer 206 can block dust and other impurities and moisture in the air, improving the drying effect of the edible agricultural products.

[0046] When the dustproof net 204 and the absorbent cotton layer 206 are saturated, hold the handle 304 on the replacement part 300 to rotate the rotating plate 303, so that the rotating plate 303 is in a vertical position. After the mounting frame 203 is unrestricted, it can be removed, which facilitates the replacement of the snap-fit ​​dustproof net 204 and absorbent cotton layer 206. During installation, rotate the rotating plate 303 so that the two sets of friction strips 305 are tightly fitted with the inner wall of the connecting groove 302, so that the rotating plate 303 is located in the connecting groove 302 and in a horizontal position. This completes the fixing of the mounting frame 203, which facilitates the disassembly, assembly, and replacement of the dustproof net 204 and absorbent cotton layer 206, and ensures the drying effect of edible agricultural products.
