The invention relates to an air supply mechanism and a working method of a chain-plate circulation type tea withering dryer, comprising a
hot blast stove and a withering and
drying room connected to the
hot blast stove through an air supply
pipe. The withering and
drying room is equipped with a A
conveyor belt for tea leaves to be withered and dried, the
conveyor belt includes conveyor chains on both sides and conveyor plates located between the conveyor chains on both sides, and a hot gas
discharge pipe is arranged horizontally between the upper and lower
layers of the
conveyor belt. The hot gas
discharge pipe is provided with air outlet holes, two of which are arranged in the same length direction of the hot gas
discharge pipe, and are symmetrical to the
vertical plane of the center line of the superheated gas discharge pipe. Penetration to the withered
drying material; the temperature of the drying layer is more uniform, and changes with the change of
humidity, the higher the
humidity, the higher the temperature, which improves the drying effect and reduces the
energy loss at the discharge port; slows down the wind pressure, It prevents the drying objects from flying all over the
sky, and prevents the drying objects from blowing onto the guide rails and being crushed, avoiding the burning of carbides and improving the safety performance of the equipment.
