Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of leather drying technology, and more particularly to a drying system for leather. Background Technology

[0002] Leather is animal hide that has undergone physical and chemical processing such as hair removal and tanning, resulting in a modified, less perishable material. It is composed of natural protein fibers tightly woven in three-dimensional space, with a special grain layer on the surface, giving it a natural grain and luster, and a comfortable feel. After tanning and cleaning, leather needs to be dried in a dryer during the production process.

[0003] Because leather is fully moist after the washing process, it takes a long time to dry in a dryer, resulting in low drying efficiency. Furthermore, the high moisture content of leather generates more water vapor during the drying process, creating a vicious cycle that further interferes with drying efficiency. On the other hand, having workers in factories pre-scrape off the moisture would increase their workload and present certain inconveniences. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a drying system for leather.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a drying system for leather, comprising a dryer body, a motor fixedly installed at the center of the upper surface of the dryer body, the output shaft of the motor extending through into the interior of the dryer body and fixedly connected to a reciprocating moving mechanism, multiple stretchers slidably connected inside the dryer body, and multiple scrapers corresponding to the stretchers fixedly connected to the lower surface of the reciprocating moving mechanism, and support base plates symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the outer surface of the dryer body, with a drying device and a ventilation mechanism fixedly installed on the upper surfaces of the two support base plates respectively.

[0006] The reciprocating moving mechanism includes a turntable fixedly connected to the end of the motor output shaft. A protrusion is fixedly connected to one end of the lower surface of the turntable. A slide rail is slidably connected to the outer surface of the protrusion. The lower surface of the slide rail is fixedly connected to multiple scrapers. Slider blocks are symmetrically fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slide rail. Both sliders are slidably connected to the top of the inner wall of the dryer body.

[0007] The drying device includes a hot air blower fixedly installed on the upper surface of the support base plate. An air supply pipe is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the hot air blower. Multiple branch pipes are fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the air supply pipe. One end of a single branch pipe extends through to the bottom of the dryer body and is connected to the interior of multiple tension plates respectively. One end of each of the other multiple branch pipes is fixedly connected to the interior of the dryer body.

[0008] The exhaust mechanism includes an exhaust fan fixedly installed on the upper surface of the support base plate. An exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the exhaust fan. Multiple branch pipes are fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the exhaust pipe. One end of each of the multiple branch pipes is fixedly connected to the interior of the dryer body.

[0009] The bottom inner wall of the dryer body is slidably connected with multiple water collection boxes that cooperate with the tension plate.

[0010] The inside of the tension plate is hollow, and multiple through holes are opened on both sides of the outer surface of the tension plate.

[0011] The dryer body has symmetrical hinged doors on the front, and handles are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of both doors.

[0012] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. In use, this invention is a drying system for leather. Through the reciprocating moving mechanism and scraper, the operation of the motor can drive the turntable to rotate, and then the slide rail can be driven to move laterally back and forth along the dryer body through the protrusion. This allows the scraper to reciprocate to scrape the leather on the stretcher, removing most of the moisture contained in the leather, which is convenient for subsequent hot air drying. This reduces the workload of workers and improves the drying efficiency.

[0014] 2. When in use, this invention is a drying system for leather. Through the set drying device, the hot air generated by the hot air blown by the hot air blown to the surface of the leather through the air supply pipe and multiple branch pipes. At the same time, through a single branch pipe connected to the inside of the stretching plate, the hot air can also be blown from the stretching plate to the leather, so that the surface of the leather is evenly blown by the hot air, so that the leather is evenly dried and the drying effect is enhanced.

[0020] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0021] Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the drying system for leather includes a dryer body 1. A door 16 is symmetrically hinged to the front of the dryer body 1. Handles are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of both doors 16. A motor 7 is fixedly installed at the center of the upper surface of the dryer body 1. The output shaft of the motor 7 extends through the interior of the dryer body 1 and is fixedly connected to a reciprocating mechanism. Multiple tension plates 13 are slidably connected inside the dryer body 1. Multiple scrapers 12 corresponding to the tension plates 13 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the reciprocating mechanism. Multiple water collection boxes 14 that cooperate with the tension plates 13 are slidably connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the dryer body 1. Support base plates 2 are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the outer surface of the dryer body 1. A drying device and a ventilation mechanism are fixedly installed on the upper surfaces of the two support base plates 2, respectively.

[0022] The reciprocating movement mechanism includes a turntable 8 fixedly connected to the end of the output shaft of the motor 7. A protrusion 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the lower surface of the turntable 8. A slide rail 10 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the protrusion 9. The lower surface of the slide rail 10 is fixedly connected to multiple scrapers 12, and sliders 11 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slide rail 10. Both sliders 11 are slidably connected to the top of the inner wall of the dryer body 1. The operation of the motor 7 can drive the turntable 8 to rotate, thereby driving the protrusion 9 to make a circular motion. Since the slide rail 10 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the protrusion 9, while the protrusion 9 is slidably connected along the inner wall of the slide rail 10, it will drive the slide rail 10 to reciprocate along the top of the inner wall of the dryer body 1 through the two sliders 11, thereby driving the scrapers 12 to scrape water off the leather on the stretcher 13.

[0023] The drying device includes a hot air blower 3 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the support base plate 2. An air supply pipe 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the hot air blower 3. Multiple branch pipes 15 are fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the air supply pipe 4. One end of each branch pipe 15 extends through to the bottom of the dryer body 1 and is connected to the interior of multiple stretching plates 13. The interior of the stretching plate 13 is hollow, and multiple through holes are opened on both sides of the outer surface of the stretching plate 13. In addition, one end of each branch pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the interior of the dryer body 1. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 3 is blown to the surface of the leather through the air supply pipe 4 and the multiple branch pipes 15. At the same time, through the connection between the individual branch pipes 15 and the interior of the stretching plate 13, the hot air can also be blown from the stretching plate 13 to the leather.

[0024] The ventilation mechanism includes a fan 5 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the support base plate 2. An exhaust pipe 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the fan 5. Multiple branch pipes 15 are fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the exhaust pipe 6. One end of each branch pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the interior of the dryer body 1. By turning on the fan 5, the exhaust pipe 6 and the multiple branch pipes 15 can extract the hot and humid air inside the dryer body 1.

[0025] When using a leather drying system, workers first brush a mixture of starch and water onto the surface of the leather to be dried, then adhere it to the surface of a stretching plate 13. The paste-like solution allows for firm adhesion. The stretching plate 13 is then pushed into the dryer body 1, and the motor 7 is started. The operation of the motor 7 drives the turntable 8 to rotate, which in turn drives the slide rail 10 to move laterally back and forth along the dryer body 1 via the protrusion 9. This allows the scraper 12 to reciprocate by scraping the leather on the stretching plate 13, removing the impurities contained in the leather. Most of the moisture is scraped off, making it easier to dry with hot air later. This reduces the workload of workers and improves drying efficiency. Then, the water in the water collection box 14 can be poured out, and the box door 16 can be closed to start drying. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 3 will be blown onto the surface of the leather through the air supply pipe 4 and multiple branch pipes 15. At the same time, through the connection between a single branch pipe 15 and the inside of the stretching plate 13, the hot air can also be blown onto the leather from the stretching plate 13, so that the surface of the leather is evenly blown by the hot air, so that the leather is evenly dried and the drying effect is enhanced.
