Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of drying and processing devices, and in particular to a drying and processing device for konjac bulbs. Background Technology
[0002] Konjac bulbs are underground tubers used to propagate konjac plants. Each year, a konjac plant produces a mother bulb, which is used to produce larger tubers for commercial konjac. Multiple smaller bulbs develop above or around the mother bulb. Some konjac varieties also produce rhizomes, the swollen parts at the top of which can also be used as bulbs. Large commercial konjac tubers are sometimes cut into small pieces with buds, sterilized, and used as bulbs. The bulbs store a large amount of water and nutrients, providing energy for the germination and initial growth of new plants the following year. They are the seeds for konjac cultivation.
[0003] A konjac bulb drying and treatment device refers to equipment or facilities specifically designed to accelerate the drying of konjac bulbs, reduce their moisture content, and facilitate storage. Its core purpose is to safely, efficiently, and evenly remove excess moisture from the bulbs. The drying process is mostly carried out on the ground or on a table, requiring manual supervision. Large-scale drying processes are prone to contamination and damage, and there is also the problem of not being able to collect the bulbs in time during rainy weather. Therefore, we propose a drying and treatment device for konjac bulbs to solve the existing problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems existing in the background technology by proposing a drying treatment device for konjac bulbs.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a drying treatment device for konjac bulbs, comprising a mounting frame, a first motor, a support net, and a second motor. The mounting frame is internally provided with a support net, and one end of the support net is provided with equidistantly distributed connecting ropes. The front end of the mounting frame is provided with a first motor, and the output end of the first motor is provided with a rotating shaft. One end of the support net is provided with equidistantly distributed connecting ropes connected to the rotating shaft. The upper end of the mounting frame is provided with symmetrically distributed side guide rails and an upper guide rail. The outer walls of both the side guide rails and the upper guide rails are slidably fitted with sliders. The upper end of each slider is provided with a waterproof membrane connected to the mounting frame at one end.
[0006] Preferably, a second slider is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the side guide rail and the upper guide rail. A nut is provided at the lower end of the second slider, and a frame connected to the waterproof membrane is provided at the upper end of both the second slider and the first slider. The second slider receives sliding support on the outer wall of the upper guide rail and the side guide rail, and the waterproof membrane is supported by the frame.
[0007] Preferably, the frame is conical in shape, and the two output ends of the motor are provided with screws that are threaded into and installed with nuts. The conical surface causes the front and rear sides of the waterproof face to be inclined, which facilitates the sliding off of rainwater.
[0008] Preferably, one end of the mounting bracket is provided with a bearing bracket one and a bearing bracket two. One end of the rotating shaft is rotatably mounted inside the bearing bracket one, and one end of the screw is rotatably mounted inside the bearing bracket two. The rotating shaft receives rotational support inside the bearing bracket one, and the screw receives rotational support through the bearing bracket two.
[0009] Preferably, the lower end of the mounting frame is rotatably mounted with equally spaced lower support rollers, the outer walls of which are in contact with the lower outer wall of the support net. The lower support rollers support the lower end of the support net, increasing its support strength.
[0010] Preferably, one end of the support net is provided with a connecting plate, one end of the connecting plate is provided with a spring connected to the mounting frame, and one end of the connecting plate is provided with a tie rod located inside the spring and connected to the mounting frame. When the support net is stretched, the spring is stretched, giving the support net the ability to extend and move, and the tie rod compensates for the elastic support force of the spring.
[0011] Preferably, inner and outer support rollers are rotatably mounted inside both ends of the mounting frame, and the support net is located between the inner and outer support rollers. The inner and outer support rollers provide suspended support for the support net inside the support frame, while also providing rolling support for the support net.
[0012] Preferably, the upper end of the support net is provided with staggered vertical and horizontal plates, and a placement groove is provided between the vertical and horizontal plates. The placement groove between the horizontal and vertical plates is used to place the konjac bulbs, so that the konjac bulbs are separated and the local accumulation of konjac bulbs is avoided when the konjac bulbs roll.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. This utility model places konjac bulbs on a support net for drying. In strong sunlight or rainy weather, a waterproof membrane is unfolded to cover the top of the support net, preventing it from getting wet from rain or being exposed to excessive sunlight. During this process, the support net can move a small distance, causing the konjac bulbs to roll when the support net is pulled, thus achieving automatic turning of the konjac bulbs during the drying process. This helps to ensure even drying and allows for large-scale drying of konjac bulbs at the same time. The suspended drying reduces the risk of damage and contamination. Attached Figure Description

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.
[0022] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention proposes a drying treatment device for konjac bulbs, including a mounting frame 1, a motor 4, a support net 9, and a motor 17. The mounting frame 1 is provided with a support net 9 inside, and a connecting rope 6 is provided at one end of the support net 9. The front end of the mounting frame 1 is provided with a motor 4, and a connecting rope 6 connected to one end of the support net 9 is provided in the output end of the motor 4. The upper end of the mounting frame 1 is provided with symmetrically distributed side guide rails 15 and upper guide rails 14. A slider 16 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of both the side guide rails 15 and the upper guide rails 14. A waterproof membrane 5 is provided on the upper end of each slider 16, with one end connected to the mounting frame 1.
[0023] Sliding slider 22 is slidably installed on the outer wall of side guide rail 15 and upper guide rail 14. Nut 21 is provided at the lower end of slider 22. Sliding frame 23 connected to waterproof membrane 5 is provided at the upper end of slider 22 and slider 16.
[0024] The frame 23 is conical in shape, and the output end of the motor 2 17 is provided with a screw that is threadedly connected to the nut 21;
[0025] One end of the mounting bracket 1 is provided with a bearing bracket 3 and a bearing bracket 20. One end of the rotating shaft 2 is rotatably installed inside the bearing bracket 3, and one end of the screw is rotatably installed inside the bearing bracket 20.
[0026] The lower end of the mounting frame 1 is rotatably mounted with equally spaced lower rollers 13, and the outer wall of the lower rollers 13 is in contact with the lower outer wall of the support net 9.
[0027] One end of the support net 9 is provided with a connecting plate 24, one end of the connecting plate 24 is provided with a spring 18 connected to the mounting frame 1, and one end of the connecting plate 24 is provided with a tie rod 19 located inside the spring 18 and connected to the mounting frame 1.
[0028] The mounting frame 1 has an inner support roller 7 and an outer support roller 8 rotatably mounted inside both ends, and the support net 9 is located between the inner support roller 7 and the outer support roller 8.
[0029] The upper end of the support net 9 is provided with staggered vertical plates 10 and horizontal plates 11, and a placement groove 12 is provided between the vertical plates 10 and the horizontal plates 11.
[0030] Based on the implementation steps of Example 1: When in use, the konjac bulbs are placed in the placement groove 12 on the surface of the support net 9, where the vertical plates 10 and horizontal plates 11 are intersected. The vertical plates 10 and horizontal plates 11 form a grid-like limiting structure to prevent the bulbs from rolling and piling up, ensuring that each bulb is independently exposed to the ventilation environment. The motor 4 is started, and the support net 9 is pulled along the rolling structure formed by the inner support roller 7 and the outer support roller 8 through the connecting rope 6 to move periodically back and forth. During the movement, the lower support roller 13 forms dynamic support for the bottom of the support net 9. With the elastic buffering of the spring 18 and the tension rod 19, the bulbs are automatically turned over in low amplitude vibration, which promotes the uniform evaporation of surface moisture. This improves efficiency and shortens the drying cycle compared to traditional manual turning.
[0031] Motor 1 4 drives the support net 9 to move laterally via the connecting rope 6. The inertia causes the bulbs to roll slightly. Combined with the physical barrier of the vertical plate 10 and the horizontal plate 11, it achieves precise turning without damaging the skin and ensures that the bulbs are dried without dead corners. When it rains, Motor 2 17 drives the screw to rotate. The nut 21 drives the slider 2 22 to slide synchronously along the upper guide rail 14 and the side guide rail 15. The traction frame 23 unfolds the waterproof membrane 5. The conical membrane design allows rainwater to flow quickly along the slope and avoids water accumulation that could crush the structure.
[0032] The support net 9 is off the ground, and the gaps in the mesh allow for ventilation from top to bottom, reducing dust pollution compared to ground drying and avoiding the risk of rodents gnawing on the seeds. The waterproof membrane 5 can withstand rainy weather when unfolded, improving efficiency compared to traditional manual rain shelter. The reciprocating motion of the support net 9 reduces the uniformity of the moisture content of the bulbs, increasing the germination rate compared to static drying. The frame 23 is made of glass fiber reinforced composite material, which improves wind load resistance and adapts to the needs of open-air operations. Dynamic turning and drying combined with mesh positioning reduces the drying deviation rate of the bulbs, improving drying efficiency and creating multiple protections against rain, dirt, and damage.
[0033] The above specific embodiments are merely several preferred embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
[0034] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
