Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural product auxiliary processing technology, and in particular to a drying device that facilitates turning over the leaves. Background Technology
[0002] In the production and processing of agricultural products, sun-drying is one of the key steps to ensure their quality and shelf life. Traditional sun-drying of agricultural products relies heavily on manual spreading and turning. This method is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also makes it difficult to guarantee uniformity of drying, easily leading to uneven drying and affecting the final product quality. Currently, some mechanized turning equipment exists on the market, but they are usually complex in structure and require additional electricity or fuel power, which not only increases manufacturing and operating costs but also limits their applicability in rural areas and field sites. In addition, some equipment can easily damage agricultural products when collecting and turning materials, or is difficult to adapt to uneven drying sites. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model relates to a drying device that facilitates turning over, which integrates the functions of collecting, conveying, turning over and moving. It achieves automated turning over with a simple and efficient mechanical structure, and has many advantages such as labor saving, high efficiency, strong adaptability and minimal damage to agricultural products.
[0004] In a first aspect, this utility model provides a drying device for easy turning of crops, specifically comprising: a frame; a turning cylinder horizontally installed in the frame, the turning cylinder being a hollow structure with both ends through; four wheels are provided at the bottom corners of the frame, and an axle is fixedly connected between every two parallel wheels; an inverted "L"-shaped handle is fixedly fixed vertically upward at the top of one end of the frame, and a variable-diameter shovel is provided at the other end of the frame, the variable-diameter shovel being used to scoop up the agricultural products to be turned into the turning cylinder for turning.
[0005] Optionally, end rings are fixed at both ends of the frame, the inner diameter of the end rings is consistent with the outer diameter of the turning cylinder, and the end face of the turning cylinder is tangent to the inner wall of the end ring.
[0006] Optionally, the middle part of the axle is a worm, and worm wheel rings are fixed at both ends of the outer wall of the turning cylinder. The worm wheel rings are positioned corresponding to the axle, and the worm meshes with the worm wheel rings.
[0007] Optionally, a spiral auger is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the turning cylinder.
[0008] Optionally, the end of the variable diameter shovel that is connected to the end ring has a semi-circular arc structure, and the other end of the variable diameter shovel is fixedly provided with a bottom shovel. The connection between the bottom shovel and the variable diameter shovel is a flexible connection structure, and the bottom of the bottom shovel has a planar structure.
[0009] This utility model provides a drying device that facilitates flipping, and has the following beneficial effects: First, through a clever power transmission design, the rolling kinetic energy of the traveling wheels is directly converted into the power to drive the rotation of the turning cylinder via the meshing relationship between the worm gear in the middle of the wheel axle and the worm wheel ring on the turning cylinder. This achieves automatic turning operations while propelling the device forward, eliminating the need for any external motors or engines, greatly reducing energy consumption and operating costs, and improving the device's economy and applicability. Second, the spiral auger inside the turning cylinder continuously lifts, mixes, and axially conveys the agricultural products as the cylinder rotates, ensuring that the materials are fully and evenly turned during the dynamic process. This effectively solves the problem of uneven turning by manual methods and significantly improves drying efficiency and quality. Third, the special design of the variable-diameter shovel and its bottom shovel, especially the flat structure at the bottom of the bottom shovel and the flexible connection structure between it and the main body of the variable-diameter shovel, allows the device to smoothly scoop up agricultural products from the ground and effectively adapt to uneven drying areas, greatly reducing resistance and mechanical damage to the agricultural products during the harvesting process. Meanwhile, the semi-circular arc structure at the front end of the variable diameter shovel connects smoothly with the end ring, together forming a stable support and seal for the turning cylinder, effectively preventing material leakage from the end during the turning process, and ensuring the continuity and cleanliness of the operation.

[0013] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the described embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0014] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 : Example 1: This utility model proposes a drying device that facilitates turning over, including: a frame 1; a turning cylinder 4 is horizontally installed in the frame 1, the turning cylinder 4 is a hollow structure with both ends through; four wheels 3 are respectively provided at the bottom corners of the frame 1, and an axle 301 is fixedly connected between every two parallel wheels 3; an inverted "L"-shaped handle 2 is fixedly fixed vertically upward at the top of one end of the frame 1, and a variable diameter shovel 5 is provided at the other end of the frame 1, the variable diameter shovel 5 is used to scoop up the agricultural products to be turned over into the turning cylinder 4 for turning.
[0015] Among them, end rings 101 are fixed at both ends of the frame 1, the inner diameter of the end ring 101 is consistent with the outer diameter of the flipping cylinder 4, and the end face of the flipping cylinder 4 is tangent to the inner wall of the end ring 101.
[0016] Among them, the middle part of the wheel axle 301 is the worm 302, and the two ends of the outer wall of the turning cylinder 4 are respectively fixed with worm wheel rings 401. The worm wheel rings 401 are positioned corresponding to the wheel axle 301, and the worm 302 meshes with the worm wheel rings 401.
[0017] Among them, a spiral auger 402 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the turning cylinder 4.
[0018] In Example 2, based on Example 1, the end of the variable diameter shovel 5 that is connected to the end ring 101 is a semi-circular arc structure, and the other end of the variable diameter shovel 5 is fixedly provided with a bottom shovel 501. The bottom shovel 501 and the variable diameter shovel 5 are connected by a flexible connection structure, and the bottom of the bottom shovel 501 is a planar structure.
[0019] The following further explains the function and effect of each structure mentioned above to help those skilled in the art better understand the technical solution: The frame 1 serves as the core support frame of the device, bearing all other components and ensuring overall stability and rigidity. Four wheels 3 are located at the bottom corners of the frame 1, and each pair of parallel wheels 3 is fixedly connected by an axle 301. This allows the device to move easily and is convenient for transporting between different drying areas. The middle of the axle 301 is designed as a worm gear 302, which meshes with the worm wheel rings 401 at both ends of the outer wall of the turning cylinder 4. When the device moves via the wheels 3, the worm gear 302 drives the worm wheel rings 401 to rotate, thereby driving the turning cylinder 4 to rotate automatically, achieving the turning function without external power. An inverted L-shaped handle 2 is fixed vertically upwards at one end of the frame 1. Operators can use the handle 2 to push and control the direction of the device, improving ease of use.
[0020] The turning cylinder 4 is horizontally installed in the frame 1. It is a hollow structure with both ends through it, used to hold agricultural products to be turned. A spiral auger 402 is fixed on its inner wall. When the turning cylinder 4 rotates, the auger 402 can push the agricultural products along the cylinder wall and turn them over, ensuring that all sides of the agricultural products are evenly exposed to the air and improving drying efficiency. End rings 101 are fixed at both ends of the frame 1. The inner diameter of the end rings 101 is the same as the outer diameter of the turning cylinder 4, and the end face of the turning cylinder 4 is tangent to the inner wall of the end rings 101. This design not only supports the turning cylinder 4 to rotate stably, but also prevents agricultural products from leaking from the ends during the turning process. The other end of the frame 1 is equipped with a variable diameter shovel 5, which is used to scoop up the agricultural products to be turned and guide them into the turning cylinder 4. The end of the variable diameter shovel 5 that is connected to the end ring 101 has a semi-circular arc structure, which facilitates smooth connection with the turning cylinder 4 and reduces agricultural product residue. The other end of the variable diameter shovel 5 is fixedly equipped with a bottom shovel 501. The bottom shovel 501 and the variable diameter shovel 5 have a flexible connection structure, which allows the bottom shovel 501 to adapt to uneven ground and ensures stable scooping operation. The bottom of the bottom shovel 501 has a flat structure, which helps to scoop up agricultural products steadily and avoid damage.
[0021] Working principle: In operation, the operator first pushes the entire device using the lever 2, allowing it to move under the support of the traveling wheels 3. As the device moves forward, the axle 301 connected to the traveling wheels 3 rotates synchronously, causing the worm gear 302 located in the middle to rotate as well. Since the worm gear 302 meshes with the worm wheel ring 401 fixed to the outer wall of the turning cylinder 4, the rotation of the worm gear 302 drives the entire turning cylinder 4 to rotate smoothly around its axis within the support structure formed by the end rings 101. Simultaneously, the operator inserts the bottom shovel 501 of the variable-diameter shovel 5, located at the other end of the frame 1, into the pile of agricultural products to be turned. The variable-diameter shovel 5, with its flat bottom structure of the bottom shovel 501, can smoothly scoop up agricultural products, and the flexible connection structure between the bottom shovel 501 and the main body of the variable-diameter shovel 5 allows it to adapt to uneven ground, ensuring a smooth and stable scooping process. The scooped-up agricultural products are then guided into the continuously rotating turning cylinder 4 through the semi-circular arc structure where the front end of the variable-diameter shovel 5 smoothly connects to the end ring 101. During the rotation of the cylinder 4, the spiral auger 402 fixed to the inner wall of the turning cylinder 4 continuously lifts, tumbles, and axially pushes the flowing agricultural products, thus achieving thorough and uniform turning. Finally, the turned agricultural products are discharged from the other end of the turning cylinder 4, completing the entire turning and drying process.

[0023] 2. Where there is no conflict, the embodiments of this utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other to obtain new embodiments.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
