Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cold storage technology, and more particularly to an intelligent dry goods storage cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] As society develops and people's living standards improve, they consume more precious ingredients, medicinal herbs, and seasonings, especially rare seafood such as fish maw, sea cucumber, dried abalone, fungi, nuts, tea, dried fruit, and expensive traditional Chinese medicines. These products are not only expensive but also rare. Current drying and preservation technologies mainly rely on single storage methods or simple environmental control measures, which are insufficient to meet the needs of modern dehydrated food storage. On the one hand, single storage methods, such as ordinary sealed boxes, may not effectively prevent mold and insect infestation, achieving only short-term preservation and failing to ensure the long-term preservation of dehydrated food. On the other hand, while existing storage equipment can control temperature and humidity, it is difficult to effectively treat dehydrated food that has already become damp or contaminated. These factors directly affect the preservation effect of dehydrated food and the health and safety of consumers. In particular, aflatoxin, a highly toxic substance and a Group 1 carcinogen, is easily found in moldy food; and insect infestation can also cause irreparable damage.

[0003] Some equipment only has constant temperature and humidity functions but lacks in-depth microbial disinfection methods. Coupled with the absence of effective air purification and dehumidification mechanisms, it is difficult for certain dehydrated food products to maintain dryness and purity for extended periods. Furthermore, existing equipment lacks the necessary functions and methods to handle dehydrated food products that have already been contaminated or require rapid dehumidification for storage. This not only affects storage efficiency but also increases the complexity for users in maintaining the storage environment.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for equipment that provides more reliable and efficient protection for dry goods storage, effectively extends the shelf life of various dry goods, and ensures the quality of dry goods. Summary of the Invention

[0014] In one embodiment, the vacuum assembly further includes a pressure relief valve, and the pipeline connects the pressure relief valve and the first storage area; after the vacuum pump evacuates the first storage area to a vacuum state, the control assembly is also used to control the pressure relief valve to release pressure in the first storage area in an emergency; the first storage area is provided with a placement area for placing the volcanic rock moisture-absorbing layer.

[0015] In one embodiment, the sterilization component includes an ultraviolet lamp and an ozone generator. The ultraviolet lamp is located in the storage area and electrically connected to the control component, and is used to be turned on under the control of the control component to irradiate the storage area with ultraviolet light. The ozone generator is connected to the storage area and electrically connected to the control component, and is used to be activated under the control of the control component to generate ozone and perform ozone sterilization on the storage area.

[0016] In one embodiment, the cabinet further includes an installation area, which is independently and sealed from the storage area. The pipes and conduits are all laid in the installation area, and the compressor and the vacuum pump are located in the installation area at the bottom of the cabinet.

[0017] In one embodiment, the airflow circulation assembly further includes a dehumidifier, a water collection box, and a drying box, all disposed in the installation area at the bottom of the cabinet. The dehumidifier is positioned near the fan to condense water vapor in the air passing through the fan, thereby reducing the air humidity in the storage area. The water collection box is detachably connected to the cabinet and is used to collect the condensate. The air inlet is located at the bottom of the cabinet, and the fan is located in the installation area and directly opposite the air inlet. The air inlet is also equipped with a filter screen for insect prevention and a silicone sealing strip. The drying box is located in the installation area at the bottom and / or top of the cabinet and is detachably connected to the cabinet, for absorbing water vapor in the air within the installation area.

[0018] In one embodiment, the control component includes a control module, a storage module, a communication module, and a detection module.

The terminology used herein in the specification of this application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This illustrates the intelligent dry goods storage cabinet 100 in different states provided in this embodiment. Please refer to... Figures 1 to 4 The intelligent dry goods storage cabinet 100 includes a shell assembly 10, a sterilization assembly 20, an airflow circulation assembly 30, a vacuum assembly 40, and a control assembly 50.

[0039] The housing assembly 10 includes a cabinet 11 with a storage area 13 and a cabinet door 12 located on one side of the cabinet 11. The cabinet door 12 has an open state and a closed state. In the open state, dry goods to be stored can be placed into or taken out of the storage area 13, such as... Figure 2 As shown; in the closed state, the storage area 13 is sealed, and the dry goods in the storage area 13 are stored in different ways, such as... Figure 1 As shown.

[0040] The sterilization component 20 is disposed in the cabinet 11 and is used to disinfect the storage area 13. Specifically, the sterilization component 20 includes an ultraviolet lamp 21 and an ozone generator 22. The ultraviolet lamp 21 is disposed in the storage area 13 and electrically connected to the control component 50, and is used to be turned on under the control of the control component 50 to irradiate the storage area 13 with ultraviolet light. The ozone generator 22 is connected to the storage area 13 and electrically connected to the control component 50, and is used to be activated under the control of the control component 50 to generate ozone and perform ozone disinfection on the storage area 13. In other embodiments, the sterilization component 20 may be selected from only one of the ultraviolet lamp 21 or the ozone generator 22. The ozone generator 22 includes an ozone generator, an ozone sensor, and a manganese dioxide ozone decomposer. The ozone generator produces ozone and delivers it to the storage area 13. The ozone sensor detects the ozone content in the storage area 13. After the ozone generator has been running for a certain period of time, the manganese dioxide ozone decomposer is activated to decompose the ozone, so that the ozone content in the storage area 13 is lower than a certain level, thus avoiding harm to the human body.

[0041] An airflow circulation assembly 30 is disposed on the housing assembly 10 and connected to the storage area 13 to realize the circulation of air in the storage area 13 with the outside. It includes an air inlet 31 disposed on the cabinet 11, a fan 32, a pipe 33, and a compressor 34 disposed near the air inlet 31. The pipe 33 connects the air inlet 31, the storage area 13, and the compressor 34. The compressor 34 and the fan cooperate to realize heat exchange between the storage area 13 and the outside.

[0042] A vacuum assembly 40 is disposed on the housing assembly 10, including a vacuum pump 41 and a pipeline 42 connected to the vacuum pump 41. The other end of the pipeline 42 is connected to the storage area 13 for creating a vacuum in the storage area 13 via the vacuum pump 41. A control assembly 50 is disposed on the housing assembly 10 and is electrically connected to the sterilization assembly 20, the airflow circulation assembly 30, and the vacuum assembly 40.

[0043] Compared to existing technologies, the intelligent dry goods storage cabinet 100 provided in this application achieves different functions through the combination of different components. The sterilization component 20 disinfects the storage area 13, reducing the chance of mold or insect infestation during dry goods storage; the airflow circulation component 30 controls the temperature of the storage area 13, ensuring it remains at a suitable temperature to extend the storage time of the dry goods; the vacuum component 40 allows the dry goods to be stored in a vacuum state, which is beneficial for long-term preservation; and the control component 50 controls and coordinates the operation of other components to ensure that the cabinet environment meets the requirements of dryness, constant temperature / low temperature, and sterility.

[0044] To further inhibit mold and extend the shelf life of dried goods, the sterilization component 20 also includes a catalytic decomposition unit 23. This unit is connected to a pipe 33, and a fan 32 transports the catalyst from the catalytic decomposition unit 23 to the storage area 13 to decompose ozone within the storage area 13 into harmless oxygen, preventing ozone leakage that could harm human health and the surrounding environment. Subsequently, an oxygen absorber is placed in the storage area 13. This oxygen absorber absorbs or consumes oxygen, maintaining a low-oxygen environment within the storage area 13, thereby inhibiting mold and oil oxidation and extending the shelf life of dried goods.

[0045] To separate different types of dry goods for storage and create the most suitable storage environment, the storage area 13 includes a first storage area 131 for vacuum storage of dry goods, a second storage area 132 for refrigerated dry goods, and a third storage area 133 for light-proof storage of dry goods. The first storage area 131, the second storage area 132, and the third storage area 133 are independent and sealed spaces. The vacuum component 40 is connected to the first storage area 131 to create a vacuum state in the first storage area 131. The airflow circulation component 30 is connected to the second storage area 132 and the third storage area 133. The third storage area 133 is equipped with a light-proof ceramic inner liner. There are multiple sterilization components 20, which are distributed in the first storage area 131, the second storage area 132, and the third storage area 133 to achieve independent sterilization. It is understood that a support 14 and a partition 15 are provided inside the cabinet 11. The combination of the support 14 and the partition 15 divides the storage area 13 within the cabinet 11 into different zones, serving different storage functions. The support 14 provides support and connects to the inner wall of the cabinet 11. The partition 15 connects to the support 14 and abuts against the inner wall of the cabinet 11, thus enclosing the first storage area 131, the second storage area 132, and the third storage area 133. To ensure the airtightness of the first storage area 131, the second storage area 132, and the third storage area 133, a sealing strip is installed between the support 14 and the partition 15 to achieve a seal, ensuring the independence and airtightness of each storage area.

[0046] In this embodiment, the first storage area 131 can be referred to as a dry storage area, used to store mushrooms, wood ear fungus, daylily buds, dried green beans, dried radish, and other mushrooms and vegetables. When it is necessary to store such mushrooms and vegetables, the vacuum component 40 is activated to extract the air from the first storage area 131, creating a vacuum environment. This maintains the vacuum level of the first storage area 131 at -0.08 MPa, making it difficult for bacteria and pests to survive within the first storage area 131, ensuring the hygiene of the dried goods, and extending their storage time.

[0047] To further extend the storage time of dried goods, the vacuum assembly 40 also includes a pressure relief valve (not shown in the figure), and the pipeline 42 connects the pressure relief valve and the first storage area 131. The control assembly 50 controls the vacuum pump 41 to evacuate air so that the first storage area 131 is in a vacuum state. When the first storage area 131 is in the vacuum state, the control assembly 50 also controls the pressure relief valve to release pressure in the first storage area 131 in an emergency. The first storage area 131 is provided with a placement area for placing a volcanic rock moisture-absorbing layer. When storing dried goods, the vacuum assembly 40 is activated to create a vacuum, so that the internal environment temperature of the first storage area 131 is in a vacuum state, thereby reducing the possibility of the presence of bacteria and pests, thus ensuring the storage time of dried goods stored in the first storage area 131, while also ensuring the quality of the dried goods. The pressure relief valve allows the air pressure in the first storage area 131 to be quickly adjusted to atmospheric pressure in emergency situations or when it is urgent to open the first storage area 131, thereby enabling the opening of the first storage area 131.

[0048] The second storage area 132, referred to as the cold storage area, is used to store high-sugar ingredients such as dried fruits, goji berries, red dates, and dried chili peppers. The temperature of the second storage area 132 can be adjusted down to 0 degrees Celsius, and the daily temperature can be adjusted to 4 degrees Celsius to ensure the long-term storage and quality of the dried fruits and other dried goods stored inside. To ensure that the dried goods or fruits retain their original flavor, an activated carbon filter layer 1321 is installed in the second storage area 132 to absorb moisture from the air, preventing cross-contamination of odors and excessive internal humidity, thereby ensuring the dryness and long-term storage of the dried goods.

[0049] The third storage zone 133 is an independent temperature zone, referred to as the spice compartment, used to store spices such as star anise, cinnamon, and bay leaves. Its internal light-proof ceramic liner ensures that the spices are stored away from light, preventing photodegradation of aromatic substances and extending their shelf life. As an independent temperature zone, the third storage zone 133 maintains a constant temperature of 15-20 degrees Celsius, achieving the optimal temperature for aroma preservation and ensuring the quality of the spices. Of course, the third storage zone 133 can also store traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, set at 20 degrees Celsius for light-proof storage, allowing the herbs to be preserved for longer and maintaining their quality. An activated carbon filter layer 1321 is also installed within the third storage zone 133 to ensure dry air within the zone.

[0050] To protect the dried goods stored in storage area 13 from pests or pathogens, storage area 13 also includes a temporary storage area 134 for temporarily storing the dried goods for pest control and sterilization. The temporary storage area 134 is separate from and sealed from the first storage area 131, the second storage area 132, and the third storage area 133. The airflow circulation component 30 and the vacuum component 40 are both connected to the temporary storage area 134. The temperature of the temporary storage area 134 can reach ultra-low temperatures, such as as low as -25 degrees Celsius, and this ultra-low temperature environment is maintained for 24 hours. This ultra-low temperature storage kills insect eggs or larvae, prevents pest outbreaks, and avoids the introduction of pests into the storage area 13, thus extending storage time and preventing damage from pests. Of course, the temporary storage area 134 can also be used as a dry storage area. When there is too much dried goods and the first storage area 131 is full, the temporary storage area 134 can also be used as a dry storage area, thereby increasing the storage capacity of the dried goods.

[0051] It is understood that each storage area within the storage area 13 is independently set up and equipped with a silicone sealing ring inside, thereby ensuring the independent sealing of each storage area. This not only enables the temperature environment of each storage area to be independent, but also prevents cross-contamination of odors, while reducing energy consumption and achieving independent temperature control.

[0052] Continue reading Figure 2 The intelligent dry goods storage cabinet 100 provided in this embodiment also includes multiple sealing doors 16 for sealing each storage area and temporary storage area 134. The number of sealing doors 16 corresponds one-to-one with the number of storage areas, sealing each storage area and temporary storage area 134 respectively. This ensures that opening the cabinet door 12 does not affect the sealing of each storage area, and opening a single storage area does not affect the storage environment of other storage areas. In this embodiment, there are four sealing doors 16, corresponding to the first storage area 131, the second storage area 132, the third storage area 133, and the temporary storage area 134 respectively. To facilitate opening the sealing doors 16, each sealing door 16 is provided with a handle position 161 for easy pushing and pulling by the user. By setting the sealing doors 16 and the cabinet door 12, a double-layer seal is achieved, ensuring the airtightness of the storage area 13.

[0053] In this embodiment, sterilization components 20 are provided in the first storage area 131, the second storage area 132, the third storage area 133, and the temporary storage area 134. Specifically, each storage area and temporary storage area 134 is equipped with at least one ultraviolet lamp 21 and an ozone generator 22. The ultraviolet lamp 21 emits short-wave ultraviolet light that destroys microbial DNA, while the ozone generator 22 releases ozone that decomposes residual mold spores. This ensures that the storage area 13 is free of microorganisms or pests, effectively preventing mold, insects, and aflatoxin, thus ensuring the hygiene and quality safety of the dried goods. Specifically, the ultraviolet lamp 21 can be turned on for 10 minutes each month, followed by the ozone generator 22 releasing ozone at a concentration of less than or equal to 0.05 ppm to ensure the quality of the dried goods. To make the internal wiring more concise and neat, the ozone generator 22 is connected to the delivery pipe of each storage area and the pipe 33 in the airflow circulation component 30. Ozone is delivered to each storage area through the pipe 33. To ensure that the ozone in the pipe 42 is delivered in a preset direction and to avoid airflow backflow, a check valve is provided in the delivery pipe of the ozone generator 22 to prevent airflow backflow, and a flow meter 45 is provided to turn the ozone on or off or to adjust the amount of ozone delivered.

[0054] Please see Figure 4 The cabinet 11 also includes an installation area 17, which is independently and sealed from the storage area 13. The pipes 33 and pipes 42 are all located in the installation area 17. The compressor 34 and the vacuum pump 41 are located in the installation area 17 at the bottom of the cabinet 11. Corresponding positions on the cabinet 11 and the cabinet door 12 are respectively provided with magnetic attraction components 111 that can magnetically attract each other. The installation area 17 is used to install various pipes 33 and lines, thereby preventing pests or bacteria from being introduced into the storage area 13 and improving the storage time of dry goods. The magnetic attraction between the cabinet 11 and the cabinet door 12 makes opening and closing the cabinet door 12 more convenient. In this embodiment, a Copeland compressor is used to ensure the cooling effect of the compressor 34.

[0055] Specifically, the vacuum pump 41 and the pipeline 42 are both located in the installation area 17. The pipeline 42 connects the storage area 13 and the vacuum pump 41 to evacuate the storage area 13 to a vacuum state. The pipeline 42 of the vacuum pump 41 is equipped with a flow meter 45 or a check valve, which can control the opening and closing of the gas pipe or pipeline 42 respectively, thereby ensuring that the components do not interfere with each other during operation. Similarly, the pipelines 33 in the airflow circulation assembly 30 are also equipped with flow meters 45 or check valves to control the opening and closing of the pipelines 33 connecting each storage area, thereby achieving separate control of the storage environment of each storage area, such as temperature and humidity.

[0056] In this embodiment, to ensure a longer storage time for dry goods, the intelligent dry goods storage cabinet 100 also has a dehumidification function, thereby reducing the moisture in the internal air of the storage area 13, increasing the storage time of dry goods, and preventing mold growth. Specifically, the airflow circulation component 30 also includes a dehumidifier sheet, a water collection box 36, and a drying box 37, all located in the installation area 17 at the bottom of the cabinet body 11. The dehumidifier sheet is positioned near the fan 32 to condense water vapor in the air passing through the fan 32, thereby reducing the air humidity in the storage area 13. The water collection box 36 is detachably connected to the cabinet body 11 and is used to collect the condensate. When the condensate in the water collection box 36 reaches a preset position, the water collection box 36 is removed, the condensate is emptied, and then it is refilled. The air inlet 31 is located at the bottom of the cabinet 11, and the fan 32 is located in the installation area 17 and directly opposite the air inlet 31. The air inlet 31 is also equipped with an insect-proof filter 311 and a silicone sealing strip. The filter 311 is detachably installed in the air inlet 31 for convenient replacement by the user. The drying box 37 is located in the installation area 17 at the bottom and / or top of the cabinet 11 and is detachably connected to the cabinet 11, for absorbing moisture from the air in the installation area 17. When it is necessary to remove moisture from the air in storage area 13, the compressor 34 and fan are activated. Outside air enters the pipe 33 through the air inlet, and then passes through the dehumidifier, condensing the water vapor in the incoming air to produce condensate. The condensate is then guided into the water collection box 36, thus ensuring that the air entering storage area 13 is dry air. When it is necessary to remove high-humidity air from storage area 13, the air in storage area 13 can be drawn out in reverse to remove the air, thus achieving dehumidification. The water collection box 36 is located at the bottom of cabinet 11 and is detachably connected to cabinet 11, so that the water collection box 36 can be pulled out to pour out the condensate. In this embodiment, drying boxes 37 are provided at both the bottom and top of cabinet 11, thereby ensuring that the air at the top and bottom of cabinet 11 is dry. The dehumidifying products such as desiccants in the drying boxes 37 can be replaced, or reusable silicone drying boxes can be placed in the drying boxes 37 and taken out and heated in a microwave oven every once in a while, thus reusing them and reducing the cost of use. During operation, the compressor 34 generates heat. Placing the water collection box 36 near the compressor 34 can reduce the temperature of the compressor 34, thus achieving heat dissipation, and can also evaporate some of the condensate, reducing the need for replacing the condensate in the water collection box 36.

[0057] In this embodiment, the dehumidification unit 35 uses condenser fins, so that the passing air encounters the condenser fins to form condensate, which then flows into the water collection box 36. In other embodiments, a semiconductor cooling chip can also be used to achieve dehumidification, and then the dry air is delivered to the storage area 13.

[0058] Please see Figure 5 To enhance product intelligence, the control component 50 includes a control module 51, a storage module 52, a communication module 53, and a detection module 54. The control module 51 is electrically connected to the sterilization component 20, the airflow circulation component 30, the vacuum component 40, the storage module 52, the communication module 53, and the detection module 54. The detection module 54 includes a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, and a vacuum gauge 542 located in the storage area 13. The storage module 52 stores temperature data detected by the temperature sensor, humidity data detected by the humidity sensor, and vacuum level data detected by the vacuum gauge 542. The control module 51 controls the start and stop of the airflow circulation component 30 and the vacuum component 40 based on the data information from the storage module 52. The communication module 53 transmits information to external devices. In this embodiment, the temperature and humidity sensor 541 is used to detect the temperature and humidity of each storage area. The control module 51 enables automatic control of each module, facilitating user operation. Simultaneously, the temperature and humidity sensors 541 and vacuum gauge 542 enable monitoring of the temperature and humidity of the storage area 13, ensuring that each storage area within the storage area 13 maintains a suitable temperature and humidity environment. The vacuum gauge 542 ensures the vacuum level of the first storage area 131, thereby facilitating the control of the start and stop of the vacuum component 40.

[0059] The detection module 54 also includes a water level sensor 543 installed in the water collection box 36. The water level sensor 543 is electrically connected to the control module 51 and is used to detect the water level in the water collection box 36. When the water level reaches a preset height, a signal is sent to the control module 51. The control module 51 then reminds the user to empty the condensate in the water collection box 36 via the communication module 53. The detection module 54 stores the detected information in the storage module 52 and compares it with the pre-stored information in the storage module 52. When an abnormality occurs or the information differs from the pre-stored information, the control module 51 sends a control signal to control the corresponding components to start or stop, or sends an abnormal alarm message to be transmitted to an external device via the communication module 53, or sends an alarm to notify the user.

[0060] The control module 51 includes a display screen 511 for displaying information, which is located on the cabinet door 12. The cabinet door 12 is also equipped with an electronic lock 121 electrically connected to the control module 51. The bottom of the cabinet 11 is also equipped with four casters 18 for movement, located at the four corners of the bottom of the cabinet 11. These casters can rotate 360 ​​degrees horizontally for easy adjustment. The casters 18 also have a telescopic structure; after the cabinet is moved to a suitable position, the telescopic structure is adjusted for support, preventing movement. The telescopic structure also acts as a leveling mechanism, ensuring the cabinet is stably supported on the ground and preventing wobbling. Various parameters and frequencies are set via the display screen 511, enabling automatic operation of the intelligent dry goods storage cabinet 100 after a single setting, such as automatic disinfection and maintaining suitable temperature and humidity. The electronic lock 121 on the cabinet door 12 ensures the safety of the dry goods; the casters 18 facilitate movement of the storage cabinet.

[0061] In this embodiment, the control component 50 further includes a camera module 55 and a power supply (not shown in the figure). Both the camera module 55 and the power supply are electrically connected to the control module 51. The camera module 55 includes a camera 551, which is located in the storage area 13 and is used to photograph the dried goods stored in the storage area and transmit the images to the storage module 52 for storage. The power supply is located at the bottom of the cabinet 11 and is used to provide power to the control component 50, the sterilization component 20, the airflow circulation component 30, and the vacuum component 40. By setting up the camera module 55, photos of the dried goods can be taken by the camera 551, and the control module 51 can compare the appearance and color of the dried goods under various states (such as normal state, pest state, moldy state, etc.). When an abnormal state is detected, an alarm message can be issued through the communication module 53 to remind the user to remove the dried goods in an abnormal state in time. The camera 551 can also quickly count the changes in the quantity of dried goods inside and send the information to the user at regular intervals. Setting up a power supply ensures that the intelligent dry goods storage cabinet 100 continues to operate normally in the event of an abnormal power outage, thereby preventing the deterioration of dry goods caused by changes in the storage environment due to power outages.
