[0034] Before the box of the present invention is moved or transported, the six panels constituting the box are disassembled. Figure 5As shown, the first side panel 2, the second side panel 3, the third side panel 4 and the fourth side panel 5 are laid flat and stacked with the bottom panel 1 and the top panel 6, so that the third connecting hole 19 corresponds to the first connecting hole 17 of the bottom panel 1 and the top panel 6, and the six panels are connected and fixed using connecting members (such as pins or bolts, etc.), wherein the third side panel 4 is placed on the uppermost layer, so that the hot air blower 8 and the first hot air pipe 9 are placed on the third side panel 4, and then the receiving box 7 is taken out and buckled on the third side panel 4, so that the receiving box 7 covers the hot air blower 8 and the first hot air pipe 9, thereby greatly reducing the volume of the original box body, and preventing the hot air blower 8 and the first hot air pipe 9 from being damaged by external collision during transportation, which is convenient for movement and transportation.

[0035] When the box of the present invention is installed, Figure 1 As shown, the first side plate 2, the second side plate 3, the third side plate 4 and the fourth side plate 5 are placed between the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 6, so that the second connection hole 18 is aligned with the first connection hole 17, and then the second side plate 3, the third side plate 4 and the fourth side plate 5 are respectively connected and fixed to the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 6 by connecting members (such as pins or bolts, etc.), and then the storage box 7, the hot air blower 8 and the first hot air pipe 9 are installed. The storage box 7 is buckled on the third side plate 4, which can limit the hot air blower 8, the first hot air pipe 9 and the first connecting pipe 10, so as to avoid the hot air blower 8, the first hot air pipe 9 and the first connecting pipe 10 from moving and causing damage. When drying tobacco, rotate the first side panel 2 to open the box, take out the receiving box 7, put tobacco evenly into the receiving box 7, put the receiving box 7 into the box, rotate the first side panel 2 to close the box, turn on the hot air blower 8, and let the hot air blown by the hot air blower 8 pass through the first connecting pipe 10 and the first hot air pipe 9 and then be ejected from the nozzle. The hot air passes through the mesh holes at the bottom of the receiving box 7 to heat and dry the tobacco. After drying, rotate the first side panel 2 to open the box, take out the receiving box 7 and take out the tobacco.

[0036] like Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, there are several storage boxes 7, which are arranged in a vertical direction; the four side walls of the storage box 7 are all inclined isosceles trapezoids, and several storage boxes 7 can be stacked. This structure can increase the amount of tobacco dried each time and improve the drying efficiency. During transportation, several storage boxes 7 can be stacked to further reduce the volume. Figure 6 As shown, a flange 20 is arranged around the storage box 7, and at least two fourth connection holes 21 are provided on the flange 20. When the storage box 7 is taken out and buckled on the third side plate 4, the fourth connection holes 21 correspond to the first connection holes 17 and the third connection holes 19 respectively. The storage box 7 can be conveniently fixed to the six plates through the connecting piece, so that the storage box 7 can be prevented from moving during transportation, and the hot air blower 8 and the first hot air pipe 9 can be prevented from colliding with the storage box 7.

[0037] like Figure 1As shown, a second hot air pipe 11 is provided in the box body, the second hot air pipe 11 is located between adjacent receiving boxes 7, the second hot air pipe 11 is connected to the hot air blower 8 through a second connecting pipe 12, and nozzles are provided on both upper and lower sides of the second hot air pipe 11.

[0042] The first connecting pipe 10 and the second connecting pipe 12 are both bellows, which can be extended and retracted to facilitate connection with the hot air blower 8 and to facilitate contraction during disassembly for transportation.

[0043] The receiving box 7 is provided with a driving mechanism, which is used to drive the receiving box 7 to move along the slide slot 13, so that during drying, the driving mechanism can drive the receiving box 7 to move back and forth, thereby shaking the tobacco therein to achieve a uniform drying effect. The driving mechanism can be an electric push rod, a hydraulic cylinder, a motor with a gear rack mechanism, a motor with a pulley mechanism, etc.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, rollers are arranged at the bottom of the bottom plate 1. The rollers can facilitate movement. Before the box body is disassembled, the rollers can facilitate the movement of the box body and facilitate the change of working positions. After the box body is disassembled, the bottom plate 1 is located at the bottom layer of the six stacked plates, so that the rollers at the bottom of the bottom plate 1 drive the stacked components to move.

[0045] A slider is installed on the first hot air pipe 9 and / or the second hot air pipe 11, and the slider is connected with the slide groove 13. This structure enables the first hot air pipe 9 and / or the second hot air pipe 11 to slide along the slide groove 13, so as to facilitate the removal and maintenance and change of the position where the hot air is blown out. A driving mechanism is set on the first hot air pipe 9 and / or the second hot air pipe 11, and the driving mechanism is used to drive the first hot air pipe 9 and / or the second hot air pipe 11 to move along the slide groove 13. This structure enables the driving mechanism to drive the first hot air pipe 9 and / or the second hot air pipe 11 to move back and forth, so that the blown hot air is evenly distributed in the box.
