The utility model relates to a grain dryer which comprises a grain inlet layer, a
drying layer, a grain outlet layer, a conveyor and an
elevator, the grain inlet layer, the
drying layer, the grain outlet layer and the conveyor are sequentially communicated from top to bottom, the conveyor is communicated with the lower end of the
elevator, the upper end of the
elevator is communicated with the grain inlet layer, and the
drying layer comprises a drying shell and an air return fan. A drying cavity, an air inlet cavity, an air outlet cavity and an air return cavity are formed in the drying shell, a plurality of net
pipe type air pipes are vertically arranged in the drying cavity at intervals, grains circularly enter the net
pipe type air pipes of the drying cavity from top to bottom to be dried under the lifting of a lifting
machine, hot air enters the drying cavity from the air inlet cavity and is blown into the drying cavity through an air return fan, and the drying effect is improved. Communicated air outlets are formed between the drying cavity and the air inlet cavity and between the drying cavity and the air outlet cavity, so that part of hot air is blown out of the air outlet cavity, and the other part of hot air is attracted by the air return fan to form hot air
backflow. The improved grain dryer is provided with the drying layer, so that the drying layer has the effects of hot air
backflow and reduction of
impact on grains.
