Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of potato storage technology, specifically to a device for preserving and storing fresh potatoes. Background Technology

[0002] Potatoes, also known as spuds, are perennial herbaceous plants belonging to the Solanaceae family and the Solanum genus. Their tubers are edible and they are one of the world's most important food crops. Potatoes are rich in carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and vitamin C, which can meet the body's daily energy needs and provide antioxidants.

[0003] Potatoes are typically stored by simply piling them up in warehouses. However, this increases the internal temperature of the potatoes, promoting photosynthesis and leading to sprouting and the production of toxins such as solanine. Furthermore, the lack of ventilation and dampness inside the potatoes contributes to mold growth. Therefore, there is a need for equipment that can preserve and store potatoes properly. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a potato preservation and storage device, comprising a storage box, wherein the four sides and bottom wall of the storage box are hollowed out, and support legs are fixedly installed on the bottom side of the storage box. Limiting rods are fixedly installed in the middle of the inner walls of both the left and right sides of the storage box, and limiting holes are equidistantly opened on opposite sides of the limiting rods. A hollowed-out partition is provided inside the storage box to divide the internal space. Notches are opened in the middle of the left and right sides of the hollowed-out partition, and the hollowed-out partition slides along the limiting rods through the notches. A fitting is provided in the middle of the hollowed-out partition to insert into the limiting holes and adjust the hollowed-out partition. The positioning limiting component includes ventilation plates fixedly installed on the inner walls of both sides of the storage box. Several nozzles are equidistantly installed on the surface of the ventilation plates. A ventilation pipe connected to the nozzles is provided on the bottom side of the storage box. A temperature sensor is installed on the inner wall of the storage box to detect the internal temperature in real time. When the temperature is too high, a cold air blower is connected to the end of the ventilation pipe and sprays air from the ventilation plates onto the potatoes inside to cool them down. When the temperature is too low, a hot air blower is connected to the end of the ventilation pipe to increase the internal temperature, thus preventing the potatoes from sprouting or becoming moldy due to excessively high or low temperatures.

[0005] As an optimization, rollers are rotatably connected to both the front and rear sides of the perforated partition, and the rollers roll against the inner walls of the front and rear sides of the storage box. By rolling the rollers along the inner wall of the storage box, friction can be reduced.

[0006] As an optimization, the hollow partition has insertion holes in the middle of both sides. The limiting component includes a rod that slides into the insertion hole. A spring is fixedly installed between the rod and the bottom wall of the insertion hole. A wire hole is opened in the middle of the hollow partition and passes through the insertion hole. A pull rope is fixedly connected to the center of one end of the two rods and passes through the wire hole. A lifting member for pulling the pull rope is provided at the center of the top side of the hollow partition. The spring will push the rod outward by its own elasticity and insert it into the limiting hole, thereby limiting and positioning the hollow partition.

[0007] As an optimization, the lifting component includes a fixed cylinder fixedly installed at the center of the top side of the hollow partition, and the center of the top side of the hollow partition has an installation hole communicating with the interior of the fixed cylinder. A slider is slidably connected inside the fixed cylinder, and the other end of the pull rope is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the slider. A sliding rod is fixedly installed at the center of the top side of the slider, and a pull rod is fixedly installed at the top of the sliding rod. The pull rope can be pulled by lifting the pull rod upward.

[0008] As an optimization, a second spring is fixedly installed between the top side of the slider and the top wall of the fixed cylinder, and the second spring is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod, so that the slider can be easily reset downward by the elastic force of the second spring itself.

[0009] As an optimization, guide pulleys are installed on the inner walls of both sides of the mounting hole. The pull rope passes through the guide pulleys into the fixed cylinder, and the guide pulleys guide the pull rope.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: This potato preservation and storage equipment uses perforated partitions to facilitate layered storage of potatoes. The overall perforated storage box and partitions allow for ventilation of the potatoes. Temperature sensors monitor the internal temperature in real time. When the temperature is too high, cold air is sprayed from the nozzles through the ventilation pipes to cool it down. When the temperature is too low, hot air is sprayed from the nozzles through the ventilation pipes to increase the internal temperature, thus preventing the potatoes from sprouting or becoming moldy due to excessively high or low temperatures.

[0011] This potato preservation and storage equipment works by pulling the lever upwards, which moves the slider upwards and pulls the rope upwards. This pulls the insert rods on both sides into the insertion holes and compresses the spring. Then, the perforated partition can be placed into the storage box along the limiting rod. When it moves to the corresponding limiting hole, the lever is released, and the spring returns to its original position, inserting the insert rod into the limiting hole. This allows the perforated partition to be installed and positioned, facilitating the loading and unloading of potatoes. Attached Figure Description

[0014] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-2A potato preservation and storage device includes a storage box 1. The storage box 1 has a hollow design on all four sides and the bottom wall. Support legs 2 are fixedly installed on the bottom side of the storage box 1. Limiting rods 3 are fixedly installed in the middle of the inner walls of both the left and right sides of the storage box 1. Limiting holes are equidistantly opened on opposite sides of the limiting rods 3. A hollow partition 4 is provided inside the storage box 1 to divide the internal space. Notches are opened in the middle of the left and right sides of the hollow partition 4, and the hollow partition 4 slides along the limiting rods 3 through the notches. A limiting component is provided in the middle of the hollow partition 4 to position the hollow partition 4 by inserting into the limiting holes. Ventilation plates 5 are fixedly installed on the inner walls of both the left and right sides of the storage box 1. Ventilation plates 5 are equidistantly installed on their surfaces. Several nozzles 6 are provided. A ventilation pipe 7 connected to the nozzles 6 is provided on the bottom side of the storage box 1. A temperature sensor is provided on the inner wall of the storage box 1. The storage box 1 is designed with a completely hollow structure to facilitate ventilation of the potatoes inside. The potatoes are stored separately by a hollow partition 4 to prevent them from piling up too much and causing the temperature to rise. The internal temperature is monitored in real time by the temperature sensor. When the temperature is too high, a cold air blower is connected to the end of the ventilation pipe 7 and sprays air onto the potatoes inside from the ventilation plate 5 to cool them down. When the temperature is too low, a hot air blower is connected to the end of the ventilation pipe 7 to increase the internal temperature and prevent the potatoes from sprouting or becoming moldy due to excessively high or low temperatures. Please see Figure 3-4 The front and rear sides of the hollow partition 4 are rotatably connected with rollers 8, and the rollers 8 roll against the inner walls of the front and rear sides of the storage box 1. When the hollow partition 4 is placed into the storage box 1 along the limiting rod 3, the rollers 8 will roll along the inner wall of the storage box 1, thereby reducing friction and making it easier to pick up and put in potatoes. Please see Figure 3-4 The hollow partition 4 has insertion holes 9 in the middle of the left and right sides. The limiting component includes a rod 10 that slides into the insertion hole 9. A spring 11 is fixedly installed between the rod 10 and the bottom wall of the insertion hole 9. A wire hole 12 that passes through the insertion hole 9 is opened in the middle of the hollow partition 4. A pull rope 13 is fixedly connected to the center of the opposite end of the two rods 10 and passes through the wire hole 12. A lifting member for driving the pull rope 13 is set at the center of the top side of the hollow partition 4. The spring 11 will drive the rod 10 to pop out and insert into the limiting hole, which can limit and position the hollow partition 4, thus facilitating the layered storage of potatoes. By pulling the lifting member, the pull rope 13 will be pulled upward, which will pull the springs 11 on both sides out of the limiting hole, so that they no longer play a positioning and limiting role, and the hollow partition 4 can be easily lifted out as a whole. Please see Figure 5The lifting component includes a fixed cylinder 14 fixedly installed at the center of the top side of the hollow partition 4, and an installation hole communicating with the inside of the fixed cylinder 14 is opened at the center of the top side of the hollow partition 4. A slider 15 is slidably connected inside the fixed cylinder 14. The other end of the pull rope 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the slider 15. A slide rod 16 is fixedly installed at the center of the top side of the slider 15. A pull rod 17 is fixedly installed at the top of the slide rod 16. By pulling the pull rod 17 upward, the slider 15 will slide upward along the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 14, which will then pull the pull rope 13 upward. Therefore, the two insert rods 10 on both sides can be pulled into the insertion hole 9. At this time, the hollow partition 4 can be taken out. A second spring 18 is fixedly installed between the top side of the slider 15 and the top wall of the fixed cylinder 14. The second spring 18 is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod 16. The spring 18 itself provides a force for the slider 15 to return downward, so that the pull rope 13 will not be tightened, making it convenient for the two insert rods 10 on both sides to return and be inserted into the limiting hole. Please see Figure 5 Guide pulleys 19 are installed on the inner walls of both sides of the mounting hole. The pull rope 13 passes through the guide pulleys 19 into the fixed cylinder 14. The guide pulleys 19 guide the pull rope 13, avoiding the wear of the pull rope 13 due to sliding contact, thus saving effort and extending its service life.

[0017] In use, first pull the lever 17 to lift the entire perforated partition 4. Under the weight of the perforated partition 4 itself, the lever 17 will move upward, which will drive the slider 15 to slide upward along the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 14. This will pull the pull rope 13 upward, at which point the insert rods 10 on both sides can be pulled into the insertion holes 9, and the spring 11 will be compressed. Then the perforated partition 4 can be placed into the storage box 1 along the limiting rod 3. When it moves to the corresponding limiting hole, the lever 17 is released. The spring 11 will rebound and drive the insert rod 10 to reset and insert into the limiting hole, thus installing and positioning the perforated partition 4. Similarly, install the other perforated partitions 4 in sequence to divide the internal space of the storage box 1 and place the potatoes in layers. Since the entire storage box 1 and the perforated partitions 4 are perforated, the ventilation effect can be improved. The ventilation pipe 7 ventilates the potatoes from the nozzle 6, further improving the ventilation effect. Meanwhile, the internal temperature is monitored in real time by a temperature sensor. When the temperature is too high, a cold air blower is connected to the end of the ventilation pipe 7 and sprays air onto the potatoes inside from the ventilation plate 5 to cool them down. When the temperature is too low, a hot air blower is connected to the end of the ventilation pipe 7 to increase the internal temperature and prevent the potatoes from sprouting or becoming moldy due to excessively high or low temperatures.

[0018] In summary, this potato preservation and storage equipment facilitates layered storage of potatoes through the perforated partition 4, while the overall perforated storage box 1 and perforated partition 4 facilitate potato ventilation. A temperature sensor monitors the internal temperature in real time; when the temperature is too high, cold air is sprayed from the nozzle 6 through the ventilation pipe 7 to cool it down; conversely, when the temperature is too low, hot air is sprayed from the nozzle 6 through the ventilation pipe 7 to increase the internal temperature. This effectively prevents potatoes from sprouting or becoming moldy due to excessively high or low temperatures.

[0019] Pulling up the lever 17 will move the slider 15 upward, which in turn will pull the pull rope 13 upward. At this time, the insert rods 10 on both sides can be pulled into the insertion holes 9, and the spring 11 will be compressed. Then, the hollow partition 4 can be placed into the storage box 1 along the limiting rod 3. When it moves to the corresponding limiting hole, the lever 17 is released. The spring 11 will rebound and drive the insert rod 10 to reset and insert into the limiting hole, thus installing and positioning the hollow partition 4, which facilitates the loading and unloading of potatoes.
