Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of drying equipment technology, and specifically relates to a crop drying equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Agricultural drying equipment, also known as a dryer, is a key piece of equipment for dehydrating and preserving agricultural products such as potato slices, diced radishes, and dried fruit. One of the core components of a dryer is a multi-layer drying tray, which holds the material to be dried and ensures that the material is heated evenly inside the dryer. Currently, although the drying trays of mainstream dryers on the market are removable, the loading and unloading of materials still relies on manual operation, making the overall process cumbersome and inefficient. Specifically, before the drying operation begins, workers must remove the drying trays one by one from inside the dryer. Then, the pre-treated crops to be dried are evenly spread on the surface of each tray. After spreading, the trays are put back into the dryer one by one. The entire loading process consumes a lot of manpower and time. After the drying operation is completed, similar operations must be repeated, that is, each tray is manually pulled out and the dried material on the tray is manually emptied to collect the material. This manual operation method not only increases the labor intensity of workers, but also makes it easy for pallets to be damaged due to improper operation during repeated handling of multi-layer pallets, increasing equipment maintenance costs. In addition, manual collection of materials may also cause materials to scatter, resulting in raw material loss, which is not conducive to controlling production costs and makes it difficult to meet the high-efficiency production needs of large-scale agricultural product processing.
[0003] Therefore, we propose a crop drying equipment. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a crop drying device.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a crop drying device, including a dryer body and a hinged door. Multiple sliding mechanisms are linearly arranged from top to bottom between the front and rear ends of the inner side of the dryer body. Each sliding mechanism includes two horizontally arranged concave strips. The two concave strips are symmetrically arranged front and back and rotatably connected to the front and rear ends of the inner side of the dryer body near one edge. A drying tray is slidably attached between the two concave strips. A limiting mechanism is provided between the drying tray and the two concave strips. A linkage mechanism is provided between the sliding mechanism and the dryer body. A collection mechanism is provided at the lower inner edge of the dryer body.
[0006] In the above technical solution, the limiting mechanism further includes two cylinders and two circular holes. The two cylinders are arranged symmetrically front to back and are respectively fixedly connected to the middle of the edge of the two concave strips at the ends that are far apart from each other, near the edge of the machine door. Ball heads are slidably inserted into the ends of the two cylinders that are close to each other. Circular blocks are fixedly connected to the ends of the two ball heads that are far apart from each other. Springs are fixedly connected to the ends of the two circular blocks that are far apart from each other. The ends of the two springs that are far apart from each other are respectively fixedly connected to the inner vertical surfaces of the two cylinders. The two circular holes are respectively opened at the front and rear ends of the drying tray near the edge of the machine door. The two ball heads are slidably inserted into the inner sides of the two circular holes.
[0007] In the above technical solution, the linkage mechanism further includes a U-shaped frame and an electric push rod. The inner front and rear ends of the U-shaped frame are rotatably connected to multiple sets of sliding mechanisms. The two concave strips in the multiple sets of sliding mechanisms are rotatably connected to the inner front and rear ends of the U-shaped frame at their ends near the edge of the machine door. The electric push rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the dryer body near the middle, and the telescopic shaft end of the electric push rod moves through the top of the dryer body. A concave block is fixedly connected to the telescopic shaft end of the electric push rod. A sliding rod is fixedly connected between the two inner side walls of the concave block. The sliding rod moves through the middle of both sides of the U-shaped frame near the top. A guide is provided between the concave block and the dryer body.
[0008] In the above technical solution, the guide component further includes two square plates, which are respectively fixedly connected to the top two edges of the concave block. Both square plates are movably extended through the top of the dryer body, and both square plates are fixedly connected to the top of the dryer body. The lower ends of both blocks are in contact with the top of the dryer body.
[0009] In the above technical solution, the collection mechanism further includes a collection box, which is slidably inserted into one side of the dryer body near the lower edge, and the inside of the collection box is inclined, and a handle is fixedly connected to the middle of one side of the collection box.
[0010] In the above technical solution, tempered glass is fixedly connected through the middle of the door, and a handle is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer side of the door near the front edge. A grip is fixedly connected to the middle of the side of the multiple drying trays near the door.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. Through the cooperation between the dryer body, door, sliding mechanism, concave strip, drying tray, limiting mechanism, linkage mechanism and collection mechanism, the core advantage of this equipment compared with existing dryer technology is that it optimizes the collection of dried materials. By realizing the automatic tilting function of the drying tray, it significantly improves the operating efficiency and practicality. 2. Significantly reduces labor costs and labor intensity. There is no need for staff to manually collect the multi-layer drying trays one by one. The equipment can directly drive the drying trays to tilt, so that the dried crops can automatically slide into the collection box along the tilted trays. This eliminates the tedious steps of repeatedly picking up and putting down the trays and manually scraping the materials, reducing the amount of manual operation. It is especially suitable for drying equipment with multi-layer trays, effectively improving material collection efficiency and reducing labor costs. 3. To ensure the quality of material drying and reduce raw material loss, on the one hand, when feeding, the staff can still manually take out the tray and spread the material evenly to ensure the initial uniformity of the material and ensure consistent heating during the drying process; on the other hand, the automatic tilting collection avoids the problems of tray collision and material scattering during manual operation, thus reducing raw material loss.

[0014] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0015] like Figure 1 - Figure 6 The crop drying equipment shown includes a dryer body 1 and a hinged door 2. Multiple sliding mechanisms are arranged in a linear array from top to bottom between the front and rear ends of the inner side of the dryer body 1. Each sliding mechanism includes two horizontally arranged concave strips 20. The two concave strips 20 are symmetrically arranged front and back and are rotatably connected to the front and rear ends of the inner side of the dryer body 1 near one edge. A drying tray 7 is slidably attached between the two concave strips 20. A limiting mechanism is provided between the drying tray 7 and the two concave strips 20. A linkage mechanism is provided between the sliding mechanism and the dryer body 1. A collection mechanism is provided at the lower inner edge of the dryer body 1.
[0016] The limiting mechanism includes two cylinders 15 and two round holes 19. The two cylinders 15 are symmetrically arranged front and back and are respectively fixedly connected to the middle of the edge of the two concave strips 20 at the opposite ends near the machine door 2. Ball heads 18 are slidably inserted into the opposite ends of the two cylinders 15. Round blocks 16 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the two ball heads 18. Springs 17 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the two round blocks 16. The opposite ends of the two springs 17 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner vertical surfaces of the two cylinders 15. The two round holes 19 are respectively opened at the front and rear ends of the drying tray 7 near the edge of the machine door 2. The two ball heads 18 are respectively slidably inserted into the inner sides of the two round holes 19.
[0017] The linkage mechanism includes a U-shaped frame 9 and an electric push rod 13. The inner front and rear ends of the U-shaped frame 9 are rotatably connected to multiple sets of sliding mechanisms. The two concave bars 20 in the multiple sets of sliding mechanisms are rotatably connected to the inner front and rear ends of the U-shaped frame 9 at their respective ends near the edge of the machine door 2. The electric push rod 13 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the dryer body 1 near the middle, and the telescopic shaft end of the electric push rod 13 moves through the top of the dryer body 1. The telescopic shaft end of the electric push rod 13 is fixedly connected to a concave block 10. A slide rod 11 is fixedly connected between the two inner side walls of the concave block 10. The slide rod 11 moves through the middle of both sides of the U-shaped frame 9 near the top. A guide is provided between the concave block 10 and the dryer body 1.
[0018] The guide includes two square plates 12, which are fixedly connected to the top two edges of the concave block 10, and both square plates 12 extend through the top of the dryer body 1. Both square plates 12 are fixedly connected to the top of the dryer body 1, and the lower ends of both blocks 14 are in contact with the top of the dryer body 1. The guide can guide the movement of the concave block 10. By setting the two square plates 12, the concave block 10 can be made more stable when moving up and down.
[0019] The collection mechanism includes a collection box 5, which is slidably inserted into one side of the dryer body 1 near the lower edge. The inside of the collection box 5 is inclined, and a handle 6 is fixedly connected to the middle of one side of the collection box 5.
[0020] Tempered glass 3 is fixedly connected through the middle of the machine door 2, and a handle 4 is fixedly connected in the middle of the outer side of the machine door 2 near the front edge. A handle 8 is fixedly connected in the middle of the side of the multiple drying trays 7 near the machine door 2.
[0021] Working principle: When drying the corresponding crops, first hold handle 4 to open the machine door 2, then hold handle 8 to pull out the corresponding drying tray 7. During this process, when the drying tray 7 is pulled out, it will drive the two round holes 19 to move synchronously. The two round holes 19 will compress the two ball heads 18 into the corresponding cylinder 15 along the outer wall of the two ball heads 18. The two ball heads 18 can drive the two round blocks 16 to move synchronously. The two round blocks 16 can compress the two springs 17 until the drying tray 7 is completely pulled out. At this time, the drying tray 7 is separated from the two ball heads 18. At this time, under the force of the two springs 17, the two round blocks 16 and the two ball heads 18 can be reset.
[0022] Subsequently, the pre-treated crops are evenly spread on each drying tray 7. Then, multiple drying trays 7 are inserted into the inner side of the two concave strips 20 corresponding to each set of sliding mechanisms and reset. During this process, after the drying tray 7 is inserted along the inner side of the two concave strips 20, when the end of the drying tray 7 passes the two ball heads 18, it can be squeezed into the interior of the corresponding two cylinders 15 along the outer wall of the two ball heads 18 until the two ball heads 18 correspond to the two round holes 19 on the drying tray 7. At this time, under the action of the two springs 17, the two ball heads 18 can be pressed against the inner wall of the two round holes 19.
[0023] Next, the dryer body 1 is started to dry the crops laid flat on the drying tray 7. During this process, the drying status of the crops inside the dryer body 1 can be observed through the tempered glass 3. The crops need to be collected after they are completely dried.
[0024] Finally, connect the electric push rod 13 to an external power source. The telescopic shaft end of the electric push rod 13 can retract upwards. During this process, it can drive the concave block 10, the slide rod 11, and the two square plates 12 to move upwards synchronously. The slide rod 11 can drive the U-shaped frame 9 to move upwards, and the U-shaped frame 9 can move along the outer wall of the slide rod 11. The U-shaped frame 9 can drive the two concave strips 20 in the multiple sliding mechanisms to rotate along the rotation connection point with the dryer body 1. The two concave strips 20 can drive the corresponding drying trays 7 to rotate synchronously with the crops being dried on their upper ends until the drying trays 7 rotate to a certain angle, and the crops being dried on their upper ends... The crops can slide down the slope towards the lower end of the dryer body 1 (there is a certain space between the drying tray 7 and the inner wall of the dryer body 1, so that the crops can be dried smoothly into the collection box 5 after sliding down the slope). The falling crops can then fall into the inside of the collection box 5. During this process, if there are dried crops stuck to the drying tray 7, you can gently tap the lower end of the drying tray 7 with your hand. Then the stuck dried crops can slide down the inclined drying tray 7 into the inside of the collection box 5. Finally, you can simply hold the handle 6 to collect the drying crops in the collection box 5 together.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
