Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of propolis processing technology, specifically a propolis light-proof drying device. Background Technology
[0002] Propolis is a resin collected by bees from plant buds or tree trunks, which they then mix with secretions from their salivary and wax glands to produce a fragrant, gummy solid. It is a yellowish-brown or dark brown sticky substance secreted by bees to repair their hives and can be used medicinally. Currently, propolis is pulverized into granules before being used in medicine, and these granules are typically dried using drying equipment.
[0003] For example, patent CN221172756U discloses a hot air circulating drying oven. The heating element is powered by an electric base, and the drying fan at the top cover blows heat from the vents at the connecting partition into the main body of the drying oven, thus drying the items on the shelf. The air is discharged through the return air pipe at the air collection hopper, and the air with residual heat is blown from the drying fan into the heating chamber, where it is heated again by the heating element. This achieves hot air circulation, effectively improving the drying efficiency.
[0004] In the aforementioned patent, the device improves drying efficiency by incorporating a hot air circulation component. However, during drying, the material in the drying chamber is securely placed on the shelf, resulting in a less effective drying effect for the area where the material is in contact with the shelf compared to the area in contact with air. Furthermore, to achieve the same level of drying as other parts, the entire drying process must be extended, increasing energy consumption and drying costs. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a light-shielding drying device for propolis that can achieve uniform drying to address these issues.
[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background technology of this application concept, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Based on the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, the problem to be solved by this application is to provide a propolis light-proof drying device to achieve the effect of uniform drying of propolis.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by this application to solve its technical problem is: a propolis light-proof drying device, including an oven, inside which a first conveyor is arranged; a swing assembly, which is arranged on the top of the first conveyor, the swing assembly including a base, two sets of arc-shaped slide rails symmetrically arranged on the top of the base, a placement box slidably installed on the top of the slide rails; a column extending from the bottom of the placement box, the column penetrating the base, a connecting arm extending from one side of the column, a cylinder installed at the bottom of the base, the output end of the cylinder being rotatably connected to the connecting arm.
[0008] Furthermore, a cover is rotatably mounted on the top of the base, and the cover is provided with multiple sets of air holes.
[0009] Furthermore, two sets of moving tracks are detachably installed on one side of the oven, the moving tracks being divided into an outer track and an inner track.
[0010] Furthermore, a second transport vehicle is installed on the inner track, and the height of the first transport vehicle is higher than the height of the second transport vehicle.
[0011] Furthermore, a motor is installed on the top of the oven, and the output end of the motor passes through the oven and is equipped with a fan.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this application are: the propolis light-proof drying device provided by this application, by setting up a swing component, enables the placement box to swing back and forth during the drying process, thereby enabling the propolis particles to fully and evenly contact the hot air, which significantly improves the drying efficiency.

[0021] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0022] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0023] like Figures 1-2 As shown, this application provides a propolis light-proof drying device, including a drying device 1. The drying device 1 is installed in a propolis processing plant and is used to dry the raw material particles of Gynostemma pentaphyllum and Ganoderma lucidum propolis capsules. The drying device 1 includes an oven 11, which is fixed on the ground. A heating component is provided on one side of the oven 11. The heating component can continuously deliver warm air into the oven 11, effectively increasing the temperature inside the oven 11. At the same time, a motor is fixedly installed on the top of the oven 11. The output end of the motor passes through the oven 11 and is fixedly installed with a fan (not shown in the figure). The fan is suitable for promoting the flow of hot air inside the oven 11, avoiding the problem of local overheating or uneven temperature, and ensuring the uniform drying of propolis particles.
[0024] Meanwhile, a feed inlet 12 is provided on one side of the oven 11, which facilitates the entry of materials into the oven 11. A door 13 is rotatably installed on one side of the feed inlet 12, which is suitable for closing the feed inlet 12. Two sets of moving tracks 2 are detachably installed on one side of the feed inlet 12. The moving tracks 2 are divided into an outer track 21 and an inner track 22. A first conveyor 23 and a second conveyor 24 are respectively installed on the top of the outer track 21 and the inner track 22. The height of the first conveyor 23 is higher than that of the second conveyor 24, which allows the first conveyor 23 and the second conveyor 24 to overlap each other. The two sets of conveyors do not interfere with each other when moving on the moving tracks 2, thus improving the space utilization rate.
[0025] like Figures 3-4 As shown, a swing assembly 3 is installed on the top of both the first conveyor 23 and the second conveyor 24. The swing assembly 3 includes a base 31, and two sets of arc-shaped slide rails 32 are symmetrically arranged on the top of the base 31. A placement box 33 is slidably installed on the top of the slide rails 32. The placement box 33 is opaque and is used to place the propolis granules to be dried. A box cover 34 is rotatably installed on the top of the base 31. The box cover 34 is provided with multiple sets of air holes 35, which are used to discharge the evaporated moisture.
[0026] Meanwhile, a column 4 extends from the bottom of the placement box 33, penetrating the base 31, and a connecting arm 41 extends from one side of the column 4. A cylinder 42 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base 31, and the output end of the cylinder 42 is rotatably connected to the connecting arm 41, so that the cylinder 42 can drive the column 4 to rotate, thereby driving the placement box 33 to swing slowly on the slide rail 32. This swinging allows the propolis granules to continuously turn over during the drying process, increasing the contact area with hot air and ensuring uniform drying of the propolis granules.
[0027] When it is necessary to dry propolis, the propolis granules are first placed into the placement box 33 on the first conveyor 23 and the second conveyor 24, and then the box cover 34 is closed. Then the first conveyor 23 and the second conveyor 24 are moved into the drying oven 11 through the moving track 2 for drying. During the drying process, the cylinder 42 drives the placement box 33 to swing slowly, so that the propolis granules are constantly turned over while drying, achieving a high-efficiency and uniform drying effect.
[0028] In summary, by incorporating the oscillating component 3, this device enables the placement box 33 to oscillate back and forth during the drying process, thereby allowing the propolis particles to fully and evenly contact the hot air, significantly improving the drying efficiency.
[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
