The invention discloses a drying device used for tobacco processing. The drying device comprises a drying box, two first rotation shafts and two second rotation shafts, wherein the two first rotationshafts and the two second rotation shafts are annularly distributed inside the drying box, a plurality of material dispersing claws are welded to the side face of each first rotation shaft, a plurality of scraping shovels are welded to the side face of each second rotation shaft, rolling wheels are hinged to the same ends of the first rotation shafts and the second rotation shafts, annular slidingrails are fixedly connected to the side wall, close to the rolling wheels, of the drying box, the rolling wheels are in sliding connection with the annular sliding rails, and planet wheels fixedly sleeve one ends, far away from the rolling wheels, of the first rotation shafts and the second rotation shafts. The drying device is novel in structure and considerate in conception, by virtue of a planet carrier structure, tobacco is thoroughly stirred in the drying box, thus the uniform contact between tobacco and a mounting shell is guaranteed, namely, the uniformity of drying is guaranteed, in addition, due to the design of the material dispersing claws and the scraping shovels, tobacco can be scattered, pectin is shoveled, the practicability is strong, and the popularization is easy.
