The present invention relates to the technical field of grain dryers, and more specifically relates to a material distribution and drying mechanism for grain dryers, including a feed gate channel, a feeder and a drying tank, and the feeder includes a No. The motor, the central shaft and the dispersing disc, the drying trough includes sub-troughs, hot air blowers and slow-down units, with a ventilation net between the sub-troughs, the slow-down unit includes No. 2 motor, driving roller and driven roller, and the driven roller passes through the conveyor belt Connected with the driving roller, there are auxiliary rollers evenly distributed between the driving roller and the driven roller. The driving roller, auxiliary roller and driven roller are all fixedly connected with slow-down shafts, and the slow-down shafts are alternately distributed with positive arc grooves and inverted arcs Groove; the present invention thins the valley layer through each sub-groove, increases the ventilation area, prolongs the air path, makes the grain dry evenly, reduces the resistance of the hot air passing through the valley layer, cleans the grain up and down twice, and increases the cleaning of the dried grain Degree, by increasing the resistance and residence time, improve the efficiency of impurity removal and drying.
