かった。In the above-mentioned conventional technology, the temperature of fresh flowers increases only gradually, it takes a long time to remove the moisture contained in fresh flowers, and
Since fresh flowers could not be heated within a short period of time, intracellular enzymes could not be completely disabled and fading of dried flowers could not be prevented.
本発明の目的は、以上の欠点を解消し、生花原形及び色
彩を損ねず短時間内に完全に乾燥させたドライフラワを
大量に提供することにある。An object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks and provide a large quantity of dried flowers that can be completely dried within a short period of time without impairing the original shape or color of the flowers.
上記目的は、乾燥処理を複数工程に分け、前期に吸収材
を加えない状態で急速加熱を行い、後期に吸収材を加え
る手段を設けることにより達成される。The above object is achieved by dividing the drying process into multiple steps, performing rapid heating without adding an absorbent material in the first stage, and providing means for adding the absorbent material in the latter stage.

上に加熱する。Attach a fresh flower 1 to a hanging wire net 2, and attach it to an absorbent container 3.
and place them in an airtight container 4. container 4
The inside is covered with a lid 9 equipped with an absorbent inlet 5, a valve 6, an absorbent box 7, and an absorbent 8 to isolate it from the atmosphere. The inside of the container 4 is evacuated with a vacuum pump 10, for example, 100
The pressure is set to Torr or less, and the temperature is heated to 60° C. or more using a heater 11.
容器4内は減圧されることにより水の飽和温度が低って
おり、生花1からは活発に水分が蒸発する。Due to the reduced pressure inside the container 4, the saturation temperature of water is low, and water actively evaporates from the fresh flowers 1.

お、18はヒータ電源である。The evaporated water is condensed and trapped in the cold trap 12 to prevent it from mixing with the oil in the vacuum pump 10. Further, the outside of the heater 11 is covered with a heat insulating material 13 to prevent heat from escaping. In addition, there is a generator 1 for various injections, such as chemicals to prevent fading or enhance the color of the fresh flowers 1, and gases with high thermal conductivity to increase the heating effect when heating the fresh flowers 1.
7 communicates with the inside of the container 4 via a valve 14. container 4
The temperature, humidity and pressure inside are measured by the sensor device 15, and these output values are processed in the controller 16 and the valves 14, 6
, heater 11, and vacuum pump lO. Note that 18 is a heater power source.

生じる変形を防止される。In such a device, first, fresh flowers 1 are placed under a pressure of 100T.
orr below, and is rapidly heated within a temperature range of 60 to 130°C. At this time, the fresh flowers 1 are heated more rapidly by injecting a small amount of gas with high thermal conductivity, for example, helium gas, into the container 4 from the generator 17 via the valve 14. As a result, the enzymes in the cells of fresh flower 1 are deactivated in about 5 to 10 minutes, and the fading process is completed. At this time, all the water in the pores has not yet evaporated, and the flower shape is close to its original shape. After the predetermined heating conditions are met, the valve 6 is opened by the controller 16, and the absorbent material is added little by little. 8 is put into the container 3, and the fresh flowers 1 are buried in the absorbent material. This prevents the fresh flower 1 from deforming due to evaporation of water.
次に、所定の加熱条件を満した後、容器3を容器4外に
取り出し、吸収材8の中よりドライフラワを取り出す。Next, after predetermined heating conditions are met, the container 3 is taken out of the container 4, and the dried flowers are taken out from inside the absorbent material 8.

が利用できる。In addition, if a drying material such as silica gel is mixed into the absorbent material 8, the silica gel can absorb water, so the vacuum pump 10 can be stopped at the same time as the absorbent material is added, thereby saving operating energy of the vacuum pump 10. As the material, powders and grains of perlite, metal, plastic, styrofoam, etc. can be used.
本実施例によれば、変形、褪色を防止した原形、 4原

を防止する。In addition, if a solvent such as alcohol is put into the container 3 from the generator 17 before adding the absorbent material 8, and then the absorbent material 8 containing a desiccant in the solvent is put in, the pigment in the fresh flower 1 will be stabilized.
Furthermore, the primary colors can be maintained, and the absorbent material attached to the flowers can be easily removed. Incidentally, when adding the solvent, the vacuum pump 10 is stopped and the pressure is returned to prevent evaporation of the solvent.
また、容器3をセラミック等のように加熱されることに
