Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chili processing technology, specifically a folding chili drying rack. Background Technology
[0002] During chili processing, fresh chilies are often dried for preservation or later use as a condiment, resulting in dried chilies. Dried chilies are a chili product made from red chilies through natural sun-drying and artificial dehydration; they are also known as dried chilies or processed chilies. They are characterized by low moisture content, making them suitable for long-term storage, but unsealed packaging or high moisture content can easily lead to mold. Dried chilies are primarily consumed as a condiment.
[0003] Because chili peppers need to be fully spread out during the drying process, the chili pepper drying racks are quite large and take up a lot of space. When the chili pepper drying racks are not in use or are not in use, they are inconvenient to store, requiring users to spend a lot of storage space, which can cause some inconvenience to users.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a folding chili drying rack to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.
[0028] Example
[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a folding chili drying rack, which includes a placement base 1, a folding structure 2 installed at the top of the placement base 1, and a drying structure 3 arranged inside the folding structure 2.
[0030] The folding structure 2 includes a mounting plate 201. Two external plates 202 are fixedly mounted on the front side of the mounting plate 201. A first hinge rod 203 and a second hinge rod 204 are rotatably connected to the outer side of the external plates 202. The four first hinge rods 203 and the second hinge rods 204 are movably connected to the side end of the drying structure 3.
[0031] Two support columns 205 are fixedly installed at the top of the mounting plate 201. An electric push rod 206 is hinged to the front side of the support column 205. The movable end of the electric push rod 206 is connected to the outer side of the first hinge rod 203.
[0032] Through the folding structure 2, the electric push rod 206 precisely controls the coordinated movement between the first hinge rod 203 and the second hinge rod 204, effectively and smoothly transitioning the three drying structures 3 from their original compact and space-saving vertical stacked state to an obliquely unfolded state. This design allows the drying structures 3 to significantly reduce space occupation during the off-season or when the equipment is temporarily idle, thus improving the convenience and efficiency of storage and carrying, making the entire equipment more convenient and practical to use and manage.
[0033] like Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, a recycling box 4 is placed on the front side of the placement base 1, and the recycling box 4 is located below the drying structure 3 in the unfolded state.
[0034] Specifically, the design of recycling box 4 makes it easy to collect chili peppers that fall from the drying board 303, making it convenient for staff to recycle the chili peppers.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the top end of the second hinge rod 204 is provided with a collision protection block, and the first hinge rod 203 and the second hinge rod 204 are connected to each other by the collision protection block.
[0036] Specifically, the anti-collision block design prevents the first hinge rod 203 and the second hinge rod 204 from directly colliding during folding, thereby protecting the structure of the drying rack from damage and extending its service life. At the same time, the anti-collision block also provides a certain degree of cushioning, making the drying rack more stable during folding and unfolding, reducing noise and vibration.
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, an external rod is fixedly connected to the outer side of the first hinge rod 203, and the movable end of the electric push rod 206 is rotatably connected to the surface of the external rod.
[0038] Specifically, the design of the external rod enhances the connection stability between the electric push rod 206 and the first hinge rod 203, making the electric push rod 206 more powerful and stable when pushing the first hinge rod 203, thereby ensuring that the drying structure 3 can smoothly transition from a vertical stacking state to a diagonally unfolded state.
[0039] In addition, the external rod also plays a certain guiding role, making the first hinge rod 203 move more smoothly during the process, reducing jamming and friction, and further improving the efficiency and lifespan of the drying rack.
[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, an abutment rod 207 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the first hinge rod 203, and the first hinge rod 203 contacts the ground through the abutment rod 207.
[0041] Specifically, the design of the abutment rod 207 allows the first hinge rod 203 to be placed more stably on the ground in the unfolded state, preventing it from tipping over or sliding.
[0042] The large contact area between the contact bar 207 and the ground provides good support, making the drying rack safer and more reliable during storage and transport.
[0043] At the same time, the abutment bar 207 can also play a certain buffering role, reducing the friction and collision between the first hinge bar 203 and the ground, and further protecting the structure of the drying rack from damage.
[0044] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the drying structure 3 includes a placement frame 301, and two connecting side plates 302 are fixedly installed on the side end of the placement frame 301. The placement frame 301 is rotatably connected to the first hinge rod 203 and the second hinge rod 204 through the connecting side plates 302.
[0045] Specifically, the design of the placement frame 301 provides ample space for drying the peppers. At the same time, through the rotatable connection between the side plate 302 and the first hinge rod 203 and the second hinge rod 204, the drying structure 3 can flexibly change its shape as the folding structure 2 unfolds and retracts, while keeping the placement surface of the placement frame 301 always facing upwards, thus ensuring the stability of the peppers.
[0046] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, a drying board 303 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the placement frame 301, and a bending plate 304 is installed at the bottom end of the placement frame 301. A limit pin 306 is rotatably connected to the bending part of the bending plate 304 through a damping spring 305, and the top end of the limit pin 306 overlaps with the bottom end of the drying board 303.
[0047] Specifically, the drying board 303, through the cooperation of the damping spring 305 and the limiting pin 306, can be limited and rotated, thereby facilitating the collection of dried peppers by workers.
[0048] The entire collection process only requires the damping spring 305 to move the limiting pin 306, causing the limiting pin 306 to rotate around the damping spring 305, so that the limiting pin 306 moves away from the drying board 303, thereby releasing the limiting state of the drying board 303. This allows the drying board 303 to deflect at an angle inside the placement frame 301, thus pouring the peppers on the drying board 303 into the recycling box 4.
[0049] In use, the user first places the folding chili drying rack in a suitable drying position, ensuring that the base 1 is firmly supported on the ground. Then, by activating the electric push rod 206, the movable end of the electric push rod 206 pushes the external rod, thereby causing the first hinge rod 203 and the second hinge rod 204 to move in tandem.
[0050] During this process, the relative movement between the first hinge rod 203 and the second hinge rod 204 causes the drying structure 3 to gradually unfold from a vertically stacked state until it reaches a diagonally spread-out state, so as to maximize the use of space for drying the peppers.
[0051] During the drying process, the chili peppers are evenly placed on the drying board 303, which is kept stable with its horizontal orientation by the cooperation of the damping spring 305 and the limiting pin 306. As the sun shines and the wind blows, the chili peppers gradually dry.
[0052] After drying, when the dried peppers need to be collected, the damping spring 305 moves the limiting pin 306, causing the limiting pin 306 to rotate around the damping spring 305. This moves the limiting pin 306 away from the drying board 303, releasing the limiting state of the drying board 303. This allows the drying board 303 to deflect at an angle within the placement frame 301, pouring the peppers from the drying board 303 into the recycling box 4 for further processing or storage.
[0053] The user then operates the electric push rod 206 again to gradually fold the drying structure 3 from an angled unfolded state back to a vertical stacked state in order to save storage space.
[0054] In summary, through the folding structure 2, the electric push rod 206 precisely controls the coordinated movement between the first hinge rod 203 and the second hinge rod 204, effectively and smoothly transitioning the three drying structures 3 from their original compact and space-saving vertical stacked state to an obliquely unfolded state. This design allows the drying structures 3 to significantly reduce space occupation during the off-season or when the equipment is temporarily idle, thanks to their flexible shape, thus improving the convenience and efficiency of storage and carrying, making the entire equipment more convenient and practical to use and manage.
[0055] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. 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.
