Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rice noodle processing technology, and more specifically to a rice noodle dryer that facilitates the removal of rice noodles. Background Technology

[0002] Rice noodles are a type of strip-shaped food. During processing, rice noodles need to be dried and shaped, and this drying process is usually done by hanging them. This method involves suspending the rice noodles on a specific device so that they can be evenly treated with hot air during the drying process, while also preventing the rice noodles from sticking together, thus improving drying efficiency and quality.

[0003] A search revealed an existing patent (publication number: CN220793774U) that discloses a rice noodle dryer with uniform drying. During operation, the motor output shaft rotates, driving the mounting base to rotate, which in turn drives the first helical gear cylinder and the first sprocket to rotate simultaneously. Under the action of the second helical gear, the first and second helical gears mesh, causing the first helical gear to rotate around the rotating shaft as its central axis. This, in turn, drives the first sprocket to rotate, which in turn drives the chain to move, thereby moving the mounting plate and the self-balancing rice noodle placement component. This causes the mounting frame to rotate around the shaft while simultaneously moving along the chain, solving the problem of poor drying of rice noodles at the upper part of the drying chamber, resulting in uneven drying and improving the drying efficiency of the rice noodle dryer. However, the inventors discovered the following problems with the prior art during the development of this utility model: When the rice noodle dryer dries rice noodles, the strip-shaped rice noodles are hung on hooks for drying. After drying, the operator needs to remove the rice noodles from the hooks. During the removal process, the hooks are bent upwards and the rice noodles have hardened and solidified, making it difficult to remove them. In addition, the rice noodles are easily broken during the removal process, affecting the integrity and quality of the rice noodle products.

[0004] In view of this, the present invention proposes a rice noodle dryer that facilitates the removal of rice noodles to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

A shaft is rotatably connected to the surface of each arm, and a half gear is fixedly mounted on the surface of the shaft. A hook is fixedly mounted on the bottom side of the half gear. A mounting frame is fixedly mounted on the surface of the drying cylinder above the sealing door. An electric push rod is embedded in the surface of the mounting frame. A telescopic plate is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the electric push rod. A rack is fixedly mounted on the back of the telescopic plate. The rack meshes with the half gear at the corresponding sealing door position.

[0007] Furthermore, a torsion spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the shaft, and the other end of the torsion spring is fixed to the surface of the arm. A positioning stop is fixedly installed on the surface of the half gear, and the torsion spring drives the positioning stop to abut against the bottom side of the arm.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: by setting a torsion spring and a positioning stop, the positioning stop is pressed against the surface of the arm under the torsion of the torsion spring, which can keep the hook bent upward and ensure the stability of the rice noodles when hanging.

[0009] Furthermore, an auxiliary unloading lever is fixedly installed at the end of the boom, and the position of the auxiliary unloading lever corresponds to that of the hook.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: by setting an auxiliary unloading lever, when the drive half gear and hook deflect, the rice noodles will automatically detach from the hook under the blocking action of the auxiliary unloading lever, thereby further improving the convenience of rice noodle removal.

[0011] Furthermore, a limiting slide rod is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic plate, and the limiting slide rod is slidably connected to the surface of the mounting frame.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: by setting a limiting slide bar, the telescopic plate can be limited, avoiding swaying when the telescopic plate moves, and improving the stability of the meshing between the rack and the half gear.

[0013] Furthermore, the surface of the sealing door is provided with an observation window and a control panel, and the control panel is electrically connected to an external power source via a wire.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution: by setting up an observation window and control panel, the operator can observe the drying status of rice noodles inside the drying drum in real time, and control the dryer through the control panel, which improves the convenience and practicality of use.

[0015] Furthermore, the air intake drying assembly includes a hot air blower fixedly installed on the outer wall of the drying cylinder. An annular pipe is fixedly installed at the air outlet end of the hot air blower. The annular pipe covers the surface of the drying cylinder. Several air inlet pipes are evenly embedded on the surface of the annular pipe, and the air outlet end of the air inlet pipe extends into the interior of the drying cylinder.

[0019] Furthermore, a drain valve is embedded at the bottom of the drying cylinder.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution: In the initial stage of drying, when the rice noodles have a high moisture content, the moisture on the surface of the rice noodles drips directly onto the bottom side of the drying drum. The water accumulated inside the drying drum can be discharged in time through the drain valve, avoiding the impact of moisture on the drying effect of the rice noodles and further ensuring the quality of the rice noodles.

[0021] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: 1. Compared with existing technologies, this rice noodle dryer, which facilitates the removal of rice noodles, hangs wet rice noodles on hooks and dries them through an air-intake drying component. During the drying process, a stepper motor drives the vertical shaft and mounting plate to rotate slowly, continuously adjusting the position of the rice noodles to ensure uniform drying.

By controlling the extension of the electric push rod, the rack and pinion mesh, causing the shaft to deflect, which in turn causes the hook to deflect until the opening is nearly horizontal. At this point, the rice noodle strips can be easily removed from the hooks. This convenient removal reduces the difficulty of removal, decreases the probability of rice noodle breakage and damage, and thus ensures the quality and integrity of the rice noodle product.

[0022] 2. Compared with existing technologies, this rice noodle dryer, which facilitates the removal of rice noodles, incorporates a torsion spring and a positioning stop rod. Under the torsion of the torsion spring, the positioning stop rod is pressed tightly against the surface of the arm, maintaining the hook in a bent-up position.
