Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chili cleaning technology, specifically to a chili washing machine with a drying function. Background Technology

[0002] Before producing chili products, it is necessary to use cleaning equipment to remove surface impurities such as mud, dust, pesticide residues, and some light branches and leaves. In existing technology, bubble cleaning machines are generally used for cleaning first, followed by high-pressure water spraying and rinsing. Finally, the cleaned chilies are dried. Drying directly affects the preservation effect of the chilies and subsequent processing. In small and medium-sized processing plants, a dedicated drying room is usually used to dry the cleaned chilies in a centralized manner. However, independent drying rooms occupy a large area and require manual handling of the chilies, which is labor-intensive.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, people have been seeking an ideal technological solution. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a chili washing machine with a drying function that integrates a drying device after the washing equipment, thereby enabling the direct drying of washed chilies. This machine has a small footprint and saves labor.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a chili washing machine with drying function, comprising a washing machine body and a drying mechanism. The drying mechanism includes a frame, multiple inclined conveyor belts mounted on the frame, and hot air nozzles respectively provided for each of the inclined conveyor belts. The lower end of each inclined conveyor belt is the input end, and the upper end is the output end. The input end of the first inclined conveyor belt is located directly below the discharge port of the washing machine body, and the input end of the subsequent inclined conveyor belt is located directly below the output end of the previous inclined conveyor belt. A material blocking mechanism for preventing material from rolling off is provided on the frame at the lower end of each inclined conveyor belt. The air inlet of each hot air nozzle is connected to the air outlet of a hot air blower through a pipe, and the air outlet of the hot air nozzle is perpendicular to the surface of the inclined conveyor belt.

[0006] Beneficial effects: The chilies washed by the washing machine body enter the drying mechanism from the first inclined conveyor belt. Multiple hot air nozzles provide hot air to sweep the chilies on the conveyor belt. Large water droplets are blown off from the mesh of the conveyor belt, and the remaining moisture is dried during the conveying process. When the chilies fall from one inclined conveyor belt to the next, they tumble, so that both sides of the chilies can be washed by hot air, which helps to improve the drying effect. The inclined conveyor belts are set at an angle, which allows for a longer transmission distance and drying path per unit horizontal distance, which helps to reduce the size of the equipment.

[0007] Based on the above, the air outlet of each of the hot air nozzles is a flat structure and extends along the direction that crosses the inclined conveyor belt.

[0008] Beneficial effect: Hot air covers the entire surface of the inclined conveyor belt, eliminating drying dead zones.

[0009] Based on the above, the material blocking mechanism includes a guide plate and a material blocking soft skin. The top of the first guide plate extends to the lower edge of the discharge port of the washing machine body, and the tops of the remaining guide plates extend to the lower edge of the output end of the previous inclined conveyor belt. The top of the material blocking soft skin is fixed to the bottom of the guide plate, and the bottom of the material blocking soft skin extends to the surface of the inclined conveyor belt.

[0010] Beneficial effects: The guide plate can guide the falling chili peppers to roll, and the baffle can prevent the chili peppers from rolling off the bottom, while not abrading the surface of the inclined conveyor belt.

[0011] Based on the above, the frame includes two sets of uprights, multiple crossbeams connected to the top of the two sets of uprights, and a mesh laid on the multiple crossbeams. Both sides of each of the inclined conveyor belts and both sides of each of the guide plates are installed in the middle of the two sets of uprights, and each of the hot air nozzles is installed on the multiple crossbeams.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The two sets of uprights facilitate the installation of various components, and the partition net prevents the chili peppers from being blown out of the drying mechanism.

[0013] Based on the above, the drying mechanism also includes a draining net, which is installed at the lower part of the two sets of uprights. The draining net is inclined from above the input end of the first inclined conveyor belt toward below the output end of the last inclined conveyor belt.

[0014] Beneficial effects: The draining net can catch any chilies that occasionally fall. It is tilted so that it can be discharged from the output end of the drying mechanism under the drive of airflow, and drain the water, thus completing the automatic cleaning of the bottom of the drying mechanism.

[0015] Based on the above, the drying mechanism also includes a guide plate, which is installed at the bottom of the two sets of uprights and below the drain net. The guide plate is inclined from below the input end of the first inclined conveyor belt toward above the output end of the last inclined conveyor belt.

[0016] Beneficial effect: The guide plate can catch and guide the water falling from the drain net and discharge it from the input end of the drying mechanism, thus preventing the dried peppers from getting wet again. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a chili washing machine with drying function includes a washing machine body 1 and a drying mechanism. The washing machine body 1 specifically adopts a traditional bubbling washing machine. The drying mechanism includes a frame, four inclined conveyor belts 2 and hot air nozzles 3 respectively provided for each of the inclined conveyor belts 2. The frame is provided with a material blocking mechanism at the lower end of each of the inclined conveyor belts 2 to prevent material from rolling down.

[0022] The four inclined conveyor belts 2 have the same inclination angle and are set at the same horizontal height. They can be driven individually by a drive motor or share a drive motor in conjunction with a sprocket and chain transmission mechanism. The lower end of each inclined conveyor belt 2 is the input end and the upper end is the output end. The input end of the first inclined conveyor belt 2 is located directly below the discharge port of the washing machine body 1, and the input end of the subsequent inclined conveyor belt 2 is located directly below the output end of the previous inclined conveyor belt 2. The inclined conveyor belts 2 are set at an inclination, which allows for a longer transmission distance and drying path per unit horizontal distance, which helps to reduce the size of the equipment.

[0023] The air inlet of each hot air nozzle 3 is connected to the air outlet of a hot air blower through a pipe. The air outlet of the hot air nozzle 3 is set perpendicular to the surface of the inclined conveyor belt 2. Specifically, the air outlet of each hot air nozzle 3 has a flat structure and extends along the direction that spans the inclined conveyor belt 2. In this way, the hot air can cover the entire mesh surface of the inclined conveyor belt 2 and eliminate the drying dead corners.

[0024] The material blocking mechanism includes a guide plate 7 and a material blocking soft sheet 8. The top of the first guide plate 7 extends to the lower edge of the discharge port of the washing machine body 1, and the tops of the remaining guide plates 7 extend to the lower edge of the output end of the previous inclined conveyor belt 2. The guide plate 7 can guide the falling peppers to roll. The top of the material blocking soft sheet 8 is fixed to the bottom of the guide plate 7, and the bottom of the material blocking soft sheet 8 extends to the surface of the inclined conveyor belt 2. The material blocking soft sheet 8 can prevent the peppers from rolling down from the bottom, and at the same time will not wear down the belt surface of the inclined conveyor belt 2.

[0025] The frame specifically includes two sets of uprights 4, multiple crossbeams 5 connected to the top of the two sets of uprights 4, and a partition net 6 laid on the multiple crossbeams 5 to prevent the chili peppers from being blown out of the drying mechanism; both sides of each of the inclined conveyor belts 2 and both sides of each of the guide plates 7 are installed in the middle of the two sets of uprights 4, and each of the hot air nozzles 3 is installed on the multiple crossbeams 5.

[0026] In practical use, the chilies washed by the washing machine body 1 enter the drying mechanism from the first inclined conveyor belt 2. Multiple hot air nozzles 3 provide hot air to sweep the chilies on the conveyor belt. When the chilies fall from the previous inclined conveyor belt 2 into the next inclined conveyor belt 2, they will tumble. The baffle soft skin 8 prevents the chilies from rolling off the bottom. During the conveying process, both the front and back of the chilies can be washed by hot air. Finally, large water droplets will be blown off from the mesh of the conveyor belt, and the remaining moisture will also be dried during the conveying process.

[0027] To facilitate the cleaning of occasionally falling chilies and impurities, the drying mechanism also includes a draining net 9. The draining net 9 is installed at the lower part of the two sets of uprights 4. The draining net 9 is inclined from above the input end of the first inclined conveyor belt 2 toward below the output end of the last inclined conveyor belt 2. During operation, the draining net 9 can catch occasionally falling chilies. It is inclined and can be discharged from the output end of the drying mechanism under the drive of airflow, thus draining the water and completing the automatic cleaning of the bottom of the drying mechanism.

[0028] Preferably, the drying mechanism further includes a guide plate 10, which is installed at the bottom of the two sets of uprights 4 and below the drain net 9. The guide plate 10 is inclined from below the input end of the first inclined conveyor belt 2 toward above the output end of the last inclined conveyor belt 2. The guide plate 10 can receive and guide the water falling from the drain net 9 and discharge it from the input end of the drying mechanism to avoid wetting the dried peppers again.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model or equivalent substitutions can be made to some technical features without departing from the spirit of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the technical solution claimed by this utility model.
