Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vegetable dehydration technology, specifically a vegetable centrifugal dehydrator. Background Technology

[0002] Vegetable centrifugal dehydration is a physical dehydration technology that uses centrifugal force to separate water from vegetables. It is widely used in food processing and catering pretreatment. Its core principle is that the centrifugal force generated by high-speed rotation causes free water on the surface of vegetables and in the intercellular spaces to overcome adhesion and be thrown out, thus achieving dehydration. When the dehydration equipment (such as a centrifugal dehydrator) rotates at high speed, the vegetable particles move in a circular motion with the rotating drum, experiencing an outward-directed centrifugal force. Due to the difference in density between water and vegetable tissue, and the relatively weak binding force between water and vegetables, the centrifugal force causes water to detach from the vegetable surface and be thrown out through the filter holes of the rotating drum, while the vegetables are retained inside.

[0003] However, existing vegetable centrifugal dehydration devices have a shortcoming: after the vegetables are placed in the centrifuge drum and dehydrated, they cannot be quickly removed from the dehydration device because the drum is fixed to the rotating seat. Therefore, a vegetable centrifugal dehydrator was proposed. Utility Model Content

[0018] The rotary drive mechanism consists of a motor 9, a mounting plate 10, a rotating shaft 16, a driven wheel 17, a driving wheel 18, and a transmission belt 19. The rotating shaft 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating disk 15 and is located below the base 3. The driven wheel 17 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 16. The mounting plate 10 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 3. The motor 9 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the mounting plate 10.

The rotating disk 15 will drive the placement platform 14 to rotate, thereby driving the centrifuge drum 12 on the placement platform 14 to rotate. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the centrifuge drum 12 will throw the water droplets on the vegetables out through the water outlet hole 13 on the centrifuge drum 12. This water will enter between the outer shell 4 and the centrifuge drum 12 and be discharged through the drain pipe 6. The three intercepting plates 20 can intercept the centrifuge cylinder 12 to ensure that the centrifuge cylinder 12 is located at the upper center of the placement platform 14. The positioning groove 22 on the outer wall of the centrifuge cylinder 12 and the positioning plate 21 on the intercepting plate 20 can ensure that the centrifuge cylinder 12 will rotate with the rotation of the placement platform 14. When the movable cover 5 is closed, the annular groove 24 at the bottom of the movable cover 5 will fit perfectly with the annular plate 23 at the upper end of the centrifuge cylinder 12, thereby ensuring that the centrifuge cylinder 12 will not shake up and down. The unique design of the centrifuge cylinder 12 allows it to be quickly removed from the device. After the vegetables have finished dehydrating, the centrifuge cylinder 12 can be quickly taken out, making it convenient to handle the vegetables.
