Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of meat product processing technology, and more specifically, it relates to a drying device for meat product processing. Background Technology

[0002] Some meat products require air-drying during processing (such as cured meat, sausages, and dried sausages). Air-drying removes excess moisture, generates flavor compounds, and reduces water activity to extend shelf life. Air-drying equipment provides a suitable spatial layout, ensuring even distribution of meat products and guaranteeing that each piece has sufficient air contact for uniform drying, avoiding over- or under-drying in certain areas. Traditional meat processing air-drying equipment often uses open-air or semi-open-air structures (such as simple drying racks or spacious open-air drying yards). In such environments, meat products are directly exposed to the air, allowing dust and impurities to adhere directly to their surface without hindrance. During this process, these contaminants inevitably contaminate the meat, increasing the likelihood of spoilage and ultimately reducing the yield of high-quality products. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a drying device for meat processing, which solves the technical problem that in the prior art, traditional meat drying devices are often open-air or semi-open-air, making meat products prone to dust and impurities, increasing the risk of spoilage, and reducing the yield of good products.

[0004] The purpose and effect of this utility model's drying device for meat processing are achieved by the following specific technical means:

[0005] A drying device for meat processing includes a drying rack and a top plate. The drying rack and the top plate are connected by four sets of hollow mounting rods. A movable platform is provided between the top plate and the drying rack. Mounting blocks are provided on both sides of the movable platform, and the movable platform is installed inside the mounting rods through the mounting blocks. Two sets of winches are arranged opposite each other on the drying rack. A connector is provided on the mounting block inside the mounting rod, and the end of the winch wire passes through the mounting rod and is connected to the connector. Drying fans are arranged alternately on both sides of the drying rack. A controller is also provided on the drying rack, and the controller is electrically connected to the two sets of winches and the two sets of drying fans respectively.

[0006] The above technical solution further includes that the bottom end of the top plate and the bottom end of the movable platform are provided with mounting rails, and a plurality of hanging rings for suspending meat products are slidably arranged in the mounting rails.

[0007] The above technical solution further includes that the top of the active platform and the top of the drying rack are both provided with inverted trapezoidal drip grooves, and each of the two sets of drip grooves is provided with a guide hole.

[0008] The above technical solution further includes that the bottom of the movable platform and the drying rack are provided with guide grooves corresponding to the drip groove, and collection boxes are respectively detachably provided in the two sets of guide grooves of the movable platform and the drying rack.

[0009] The above technical solution further includes that a wheel frame is provided on one side of the drying rack corresponding to the winch, and a pulley with a wire groove is rotatably provided inside the wheel frame, and the outer side of the winch wire end contacts the wire groove of the pulley.

[0010] The above technical solution further includes that the drying fan is provided with a filter plate for filtering impurities on the side near the drying rack.

[0011] The above technical solution further includes that the bottom end of the drying rack is evenly provided with multiple sets of moving wheels with brakes, and one side of the drying rack is also provided with an assist push rod to facilitate pushing the drying rack.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The drying rack and the top plate are connected by a hollow mounting rod. The movable platform is installed inside the mounting rod with the help of mounting blocks. The winch on the drying rack is connected to the mounting blocks through wiring. The controller (wireless control module) can remotely control the operation of the winch, which drives the movable platform to rise and fall along the mounting rod, adjusting the distance between the movable platform and the top plate and the drying rack to accommodate the hanging needs of meat products of different sizes. At the same time, the controller can remotely control the start of the staggered drying fans on both sides of the drying rack. When the drying fans are running, they not only accelerate air circulation and promote the evaporation of moisture from the meat products, but also form an air curtain to block external impurities and dust from approaching, ensuring the hygiene of the drying process and improving the drying efficiency and effect.

[0014] 2. A hanging ring is slidably installed in the mounting rails at the bottom of the top plate and the bottom of the movable platform. Operators can slide the hanging ring along the rails to quickly adjust the hanging position, facilitating the batch hanging of meat products. The inverted trapezoidal drip groove and through-hole at the top of the movable platform and drying rack guide the juice dripping from the meat products during drying into the collection box in the guide groove below, preventing the juice from contaminating the device or the environment.

[0021] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] Example:

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a drying device for meat processing, including a drying rack 1 and a top plate 2. The drying rack 1 and the top plate 2 are connected by four sets of hollow mounting rods. A movable platform 101 is provided between the top plate 2 and the drying rack 1. Mounting blocks 102 are provided on both sides of the movable platform 101. The movable platform 101 is installed inside the mounting rods through the mounting blocks 102. Two sets of winches 3 are provided opposite each other on the drying rack 1. A connector 103 is provided on the mounting block 102 inside the mounting rod. The wire end of the winch 3 passes through the mounting rod and is connected to the connector 103. Drying fans 4 are staggered on both sides of the drying rack 1. A controller 5 is also provided on the drying rack 1. The controller 5 is electrically connected to the two sets of winches 3 and the two sets of drying fans 4 respectively. Four sets of hollow structure mounting rods connect the drying rack 1 and the top plate 2, while the movable platform 101 is installed through the mounting blocks 102 on both sides to form a stable drying frame, providing basic support space for drying meat products; the wire ends of the two sets of winches 3 on the drying rack 1 pass through the mounting rods and are connected to the connectors 103 on the mounting blocks 102. The controller 5 is electrically connected to the winches 3. The controller 5 can control the operation of the winches 3, which drives the connectors 103 and the mounting blocks 102 to move along the mounting rods, thereby adjusting the position of the movable platform 101 between the drying rack 1 and the top plate 2 to adapt to the hanging and drying needs of meat products of different sizes.

[0024] Drying rack 1 is equipped with staggered drying fans 4 on both sides. Controller 5 is electrically connected to the drying fans 4, and controller 5 can control the start of the drying fans 4. The staggered distribution of drying fans 4 can form a more uniform airflow circulation in the drying space, accelerate the air flow on the surface of meat products, promote the evaporation of excess moisture in the meat products, and help achieve the expected dehydration effect, providing conditions for subsequent flavor formation and extended shelf life. At the same time, controller 5 is electrically connected to winch 3 and drying fans 4 respectively, and can centrally control the operation status of the two sets of winches 3 and two sets of drying fans 4, eliminating the need for manual operation of each component, reducing manual intervention steps, and lowering the complexity of operation. In addition, by adjusting the start and stop of winch 3 and the operation of drying fans 4 through controller 5, the rhythm of position adjustment of movable table 101 and the airflow intensity in the drying space can be controlled, improving the convenience of operation and the controllability of the drying process. The controller 5 can be an STC89C52 model controller.

[0025] The movable platform 101 can form a double-layer drying area between the drying rack 1 and the top plate 2. With the adjustable position function achieved by the mounting rod and winch 3, the drying space can be allocated according to the quantity and size of meat products, increasing the drying capacity of meat products per unit. The staggered drying fans 4 combined with the adjustable movable platform 101 ensure that meat products in different positions can be exposed to airflow, reducing uneven dehydration caused by differences in drying positions and ensuring the consistency of drying effect for the same batch of meat products.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, both the bottom end of the top plate 2 and the bottom end of the movable platform 101 are equipped with mounting rails 201. Several hanging rings 202 are slidably installed within the mounting rails 201 to facilitate hanging meat products. The mounting rails 201, located at the bottom ends of the top plate 2 and the movable platform 101, provide a path for the installation and movement of the hanging rings 202, allowing them to slide along the mounting rails 201. Operators can adjust the spacing between adjacent hanging rings 202 according to the size and quantity of the meat products, preventing contact between the products during hanging and ensuring that each piece of meat has sufficient air contact, reducing uneven drying in certain areas. The multiple hanging rings 202 within the mounting rails 201 allow for the simultaneous hanging of multiple meat products, increasing the drying capacity per unit space. The sliding arrangement of the hanging rings 202 facilitates quick increases or decreases in the number of hanging products and allows operators to quickly retrieve and place meat products before and after drying, simplifying the operation process, reducing manual operation time, and improving overall drying efficiency.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, both the top of the movable platform 101 and the top of the drying rack 1 are equipped with inverted trapezoidal drip grooves 301, and both sets of drip grooves 301 have through-holes. The bottom of the movable platform 101 and the drying rack 1 are equipped with guide grooves corresponding to the drip grooves 301, and collection boxes 401 are detachably installed in the two sets of guide grooves of the movable platform 101 and the drying rack 1. The inverted trapezoidal drip grooves 301 at the top of the movable platform 101 and the top of the drying rack 1 can collect oil or water droplets dripping during the drying of meat products. The inverted trapezoidal structure guides the oil or water droplets to the bottom of the groove, preventing them from flowing randomly on the platform and contaminating other parts of the device or the meat products below, thus keeping the drying area clean. The through-holes in the drip grooves 301 can guide the oil or water droplets collected in the groove to the corresponding position below, achieving directional flow of liquid and preventing the accumulation of oil or water droplets in the drip grooves 301, reducing the risk of residual contamination, while maintaining the receiving capacity of the drip grooves 301.

[0028] The guide grooves at the bottom of the activity platform 101 and the drying rack 1 provide installation positioning for the collection box 401, ensuring that the collection box 401 is aligned with the bottom of the guide hole to collect grease or water droplets flowing out of the guide hole, thus achieving centralized collection of liquids and preventing direct dripping onto the ground and causing environmental pollution. The collection box 401 is detachable and installed in the guide groove, and can be directly removed for cleaning after use, simplifying the process of handling grease or water droplets, reducing the difficulty of cleaning operations, and at the same time preventing the accumulation of residues from long-term use of the collection box 401, ensuring the subsequent collection effect and drying hygiene.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a wheel frame 501 is provided on one side of the drying rack 1 corresponding to the winch 3. A pulley 502 with a wire groove is rotatably installed inside the wheel frame 501. The outer side of the wire end of the winch 3 contacts the wire groove of the pulley 502. The wheel frame 501 is located on one side of the drying rack 1 corresponding to the winch 3, providing installation support for the pulley 502, ensuring that the position of the pulley 502 is fixed, and can stably support the wire end of the winch 3, preventing the wire end of the winch 3 from shifting due to lack of support during operation, and ensuring the stability of the wire end transmission direction. The pulley 502 has a wire groove and is rotatably installed, with the outer side of the wire end of the winch 3 in contact with the wire groove. The surface contacts the wire groove, which can limit the wire end of the winch 3 to prevent it from detaching from the pulley 502. At the same time, the rotation of the pulley 502 can convert the sliding friction of the wire end of the winch 3 into rolling friction, reducing the wear between the wire end and the pulley 502 and extending the service life of the wire end. The pulley 502 can change the force direction of the wire end of the winch 3, making the pulling force of the winch 3 on the mounting block 102 more stable, avoiding uneven force on the wire end that causes the movable platform 101 to tilt when it is raised and lowered, and ensuring the stability of the movable platform 101 moving along the mounting rod.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, the drying fan 4 is equipped with a filter plate 601 for filtering impurities on the side near the drying rack 1. The filter plate 601 is located on the side of the drying fan 4 near the drying rack 1 and can filter the air drawn in by the drying fan 4 during operation, intercept impurities in the air, prevent impurities from entering the drying area with the airflow, avoid adhering to the surface of meat products, and ensure the hygiene of meat product drying. At the same time, the filter plate 601 blocks impurities, which can reduce the number of impurities entering the interior of the drying fan 4, prevent the accumulation of impurities from affecting the operating efficiency of the drying fan 4, reduce the probability of the drying fan 4 malfunctioning due to impurities blocking it, and extend the service life of the drying fan 4.

[0031] The drying rack 1 is evenly equipped with multiple sets of braked casters 701 at its bottom end, and a push rod 702 is also provided on one side of the drying rack 1 to facilitate pushing it. The multiple sets of braked casters 701 reduce friction between the drying rack 1 and the ground, making it easier for operators to push and allowing for easy adjustment of the device's position according to drying needs, adapting to different site conditions and improving the device's flexibility. The braked casters 701 have a braking function; after the device moves to the target position, the wheels can be fixed by braking to prevent the drying rack 1 from slipping due to external forces during use, ensuring the stability of the drying process and preventing meat products from being affected by device displacement. The push rod 702, located on one side of the drying rack 1, provides an application point for the operator, making it easier to control the pushing direction and preventing the device from tilting due to uneven force during pushing. Combined with the braked casters 701, this further enhances the convenience and safety of moving the device.

[0032] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
