Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vibration dryers, in particular to a horizontal eccentric vibration vacuum dryer. BACKGROUND

[0002] The vibration vacuum dryer is a kind of vacuum dryer developed in the 1980s in China by referring to relevant technologies from abroad. Its principle is to rely on mechanical excitation force from the outside of the drying container to make the material in the drying container reach a fluidized state. The fluidized material is in constant contact with the inner wall of the drying chamber heated by the jacket, and the temperature of the material rises through heat transfer. When the temperature reaches the vaporization temperature, the moisture in the material vaporizes under vacuum, resulting in the drying of the material.

[0003] The vibration vacuum dryer has the following characteristics:

[0004] 1. The drying container is sealed and has no dynamic seal. Among all conduction drying equipment, it has the smallest leakage, low cost for obtaining and maintaining vacuum, and high drying efficiency.

[0005] 2. Small gas flow, less dust entrainment, low dust removal device load, and high material recovery rate.

[0006] 3. It can handle the drying of heat-sensitive, easily oxidized, flammable and explosive, and toxic materials.

[0007] 4. It can handle high-moisture materials and recover solvents.

[0008] 5. It can achieve clean drying and obtain products with extremely low moisture content.

[0009] The vibration vacuum dryer is a high-efficiency, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly drying equipment that has been welcomed by the pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries since its inception. After decades of popularization and application, with the rapid development of China's national economy, this dryer has been applied to more industries in China.

[0010] The vibration vacuum dryer can be divided into horizontal and vertical types. The vertical vibration vacuum dryer is limited in size and generally has a volume of no more than 1500L. The horizontal vibration vacuum dryer has developed from a maximum of 1500L in the early days to a maximum volume of 3000L. However, due to the limitations of its structural design, the size cannot be further increased. When the volume exceeds 3000L, the drying time becomes longer, the product drying is uneven, and the quality does not meet the standards, which seriously weakens the advantages of high efficiency, energy saving, and environmental protection of this model.

[0011] For example, Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown: the existing horizontal vibration vacuum dryer, the drying cylinder is a closed metal cylindrical drying cylinder, the eccentric block of the exciter 1a is connected with the drying cylinder through the bearing seat. When the motor rotates, the eccentric block of the exciter 1a is driven to rotate through the transmission shaft 2a to generate centrifugal force. Due to the combined action of the bearing seat and the spring, the drying cylinder produces excitation motion.

[0012] Because the exciter 1a is designed below the drying container, the transmission shaft 2a of the exciter 1a is in the vertical plane where the center line of the drying container is located, and there is no eccentric torque to the drying cylinder. The movement track of each part of the drying cylinder is approximately circular. The material in the drying cylinder forms a concentric circle layer with the center of the drying cylinder as the center. The outer layer of the material is strongly affected by the excitation force, the material flows fast, has more opportunities to contact the container wall, and evaporates fast. The center area is small, the material flow is not active, and a low-energy area H is formed. The material in this area cannot contact the inner wall of the container, and can only transmit heat to the low-energy area through the temperature difference between the circumferential material and the low-energy area. Therefore, the drying time is prolonged, the product is not dried uniformly, the larger the specification of the dryer, the larger the diameter of the container, the more serious the situation, and even the center material cannot be dried. In order to solve the problem of the low-energy area of the concentric circle, the amount of material is reduced, generally less than 60% each time, so that the material flow and back mixing effect can be improved. Although the single batch drying time is reduced, the drying uneven problem is solved, but the capacity and efficiency of a single equipment are reduced. SUMMARY

[0013] The purpose of the present application is to provide a horizontal eccentric vibration vacuum dryer to solve the problems of the prior art, greatly improve the energy input in the center area, and strengthen the heat and mass transfer process, so as to improve the drying effect.

[0020] Preferably, a plurality of temperature measuring tubes are arranged along the axial direction of the drying container, silicon oil is arranged in each temperature measuring tube, and a thermocouple is arranged in each temperature measuring tube.

[0021] Preferably, the spray hole is arranged near the lower part of the drying container, one end of the hot air injection pipe is provided with a hot air inlet, which is used to introduce hot air, the other end of the hot air injection pipe is located in the drying container, the other end of the hot air injection pipe is closed, and a hot air outlet is arranged on the drying container, hot air enters the hot air injection pipe from the hot air inlet, is sprayed out from the spray hole, fully exchanges heat with the materials in the drying container, and the gas containing moisture is discharged through the hot air outlet.

[0022] Preferably, the exciter has two types: one, when the horizontal eccentric vibration vacuum dryer is a small machine, the exciter can be a commercially available vibration motor; two, when the horizontal eccentric vibration vacuum dryer is a large machine, the exciter comprises a bearing seat, a bearing, a rotating shaft and two eccentric block groups, the two eccentric block groups are respectively arranged at two ends of the bearing seat, the rotating shaft is rotationally connected with the bearing seat through the bearing, and the eccentric block group comprises two fan-shaped steel plates, the fan-shaped steel plates are sleeved on the rotating shaft, and the relative positions of the two fan-shaped steel plates in the same eccentric block group can be adjusted.

[0023] Preferably, the exciter is connected with a motor, and the excitors of adjacent excitation groups are sequentially connected through universal couplings.

[0024] The present application has the following technical effects relative to the prior art:

The eccentric distance causes the exciter to produce a strong torque effect on the drying container and the internal material when the exciter rotates, and under the combined action of the spring and the counterweight, the drying container performs eccentric vibration motion instead of circular motion, and the material in the drying container forms uneven vibration. The material close to the exciter has high energy input, and the movement track is vertical elliptical motion, and the material far from the exciter has horizontal linear elliptical motion.

The lower part of the drying container is further provided with a sampling port 36, and the sampling port 36 is communicated with the inner container 2 and located above the filter mesh plate 24.

[0044] In this embodiment, the upper part of the drying container is provided with an air inlet 26, and the air inlet 26 is communicated with the inner container 2. The lower part of the drying container is provided with an inlet and outlet port 25, and the inlet and outlet port 25 is communicated with the inner container 2. A three-way control valve is arranged at the inlet and outlet port 25. A metal frame made of the same material as the inner container 2 is welded in the inner container 2. A stainless steel multi-layer sintered filter mesh plate 24 is fixed on the metal frame by bolts. The filter mesh plate 24 is arranged close to the lower part of the inner container 2, and the inlet and outlet port 25 is located below the filter mesh plate 24.

A thermocouple 29 is arranged in each temperature measuring tube, and the thermocouple 29 is inserted into the silicon oil to measure the temperature of the material in the drying container.

[0046] In the embodiment, the hot air injection pipe 22 penetrates the inner container 2 from the head of the inner container 2 and is fixed to the head by the fixing flange 21. The hot air injection pipe 22 is arranged close to the lower part of the inner container 2 and is parallel to the axis of the inner container 2. The diameter of the hot air injection pipe 22 is not less than one sixth of the diameter of the inner container 2. The hot air injection pipe 22 is made of stainless steel pipe.

The side of the hot air injection pipe 22 close to the lower part of the inner container 2 is provided with 3-4 rows of injection holes with a diameter of 2.5-5 mm. The injection holes are arranged in the axial direction with a certain opening rate. A hot air outlet 31 is arranged on the drying container. The hot air injection pipe 22 and the hot air outlet 31 form a hot air injection system. The hot air with a certain air pressure and temperature controlled by the outside enters the hot air injection pipe 22 from the hot air inlet 23, is sprayed from the injection holes, and is fully heat-exchanged with the materials in the drying container. The gas with moisture removed enters the connected external cyclone separator and bag-type dust collector for discharge through the hot air outlet 31.

[0047] The embodiment also comprises a controller. The controller is electrically connected with each control valve, the thermocouple 29 and the humidity sensor 35. Each control valve is a pneumatic valve and is started by a control relay. Before the operation, the operation program is programmed according to different drying process requirements. Then, the controller starts the feeding by opening the control valve of the feeding opening 5 and continues until the drying is finished and the discharge is completed, so that the whole drying cycle is completed.

[0048] In the embodiment, a plurality of spring feet 13 are welded on both sides of the drying container. The spring feet 13 on each side are uniformly arranged along the axis of the drying container and are symmetrically arranged on both sides. Correspondingly, a plurality of spring seats 15 are arranged on the base 17. The spring 14 is arranged between the spring foot 13 and the corresponding spring seat 15.

[0049] In the embodiment, a vertical line of the drying container in the horizontal direction is taken as the center line. A vibrator seat 32 is welded on one side. The vibrator 10 is fixed to the vibrator seat 32 by bolts. A counterweight seat 33 is welded on the other side. The vibrator seat 32 and the counterweight seat 33 are firmly welded with the reinforcing rib 12. The reinforcing rib 12 is welded to the jacket 3.

[0050] In the embodiment, the vibrator 10 has two forms. First, when the horizontal eccentric vibration vacuum dryer is a small machine, a commercially available vibration motor can be selected as the vibrator 10. Second, when the horizontal eccentric vibration vacuum dryer is a large machine, a vibrator 10 with a larger power can be selected. The vibrator 10 is arranged on the drying container and is connected with the motor by a belt or a gear. The motor is arranged on the base 17. Figure 3As shown, the exciter 10 comprises a bearing seat, bearings, a rotating shaft and two eccentric block groups. The bearing seat is welded or casted by steel plate. Bearings are installed at both ends of the bearing seat. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected with the bearing seat through the bearings. The bearing pressure cover is fixed with the bearings through bolts. The bearing play is adjusted by adjusting the tightness of the bearing pressure cover bolts to ensure the normal operation of the bearings. The two eccentric block groups are sleeved on the rotating shaft and are arranged at both ends of the bearing seat. Each eccentric block group comprises two fan-shaped steel plates. One fan-shaped steel plate is fixed on the rotating shaft through a key pin. The other fan-shaped steel plate is adjustably fixed with the fan-shaped steel plate on the rotating shaft through bolts to adjust the opening and closing angle therebetween. When the two fan-shaped steel plates completely overlap, the excitation force is maximum and the amplitude is also maximum. When the two fan-shaped steel plates are completely unfolded and do not overlap, the excitation force is minimum and the amplitude is also minimum. The amplitude of the embodiment can be adjusted within 2-12 mm.

[0051] In the embodiment, the installation position of the exciter 10 is on the horizontal diameter extension of the drying container. The excitation center deviates from the vertical plane where the center line of the drying container is located. The distance between the two centers is greater than the radius of the drying container, so as to ensure eccentric excitation. The counterweight 11 is arranged on the opposite side of the exciter 10. The center thereof should also be on the horizontal diameter extension of the drying container.

[0052] In the embodiment, the exciter 10 is connected with the motor 19 through the universal joint 16. The motor 19 is arranged on the motor base 18. The exciters 10 of adjacent excitation groups are connected in series through the universal joints 16. When the motor 19 rotates, all the eccentric block groups of the exciters 10 are driven to rotate through the universal joints 16. Under the cooperation of the counterweight 11 and the spring 14, eccentric elliptical vibration is generated.

[0053] The horizontal eccentric vibration vacuum dryer of the embodiment adopts the arrangement of the exciter 10 on the side of the drying container. The excitation center deviates from the vertical plane where the center line of the drying container is located, so as to generate strong eccentric excitation force. The vibration trajectories of all points in the drying container are elliptical motions with different directions and different major and minor axes. Such eccentric excitation force makes the materials in the drying container close to the exciter 10 side to be subjected to great energy compression. The materials are squeezed to the wall of the drying container and flow upward along the wall. At this time, the materials in the central part of the drying container flow to the side of the exciter 10 under the action of the eccentric excitation force to supplement the low-density area caused by the high-energy compression area. Then, the materials are also compressed to flow to the wall side of the drying container and flow along the wall. The embodiment solves the problem that the vibration trajectory of the existing horizontal vibration vacuum dryer is circular motion and the materials in the drying container are concentrically layered circular motion. Therefore, the materials in the central area do not flow smoothly, the drying is uneven, and the larger the container is, the more prominent this phenomenon is. Therefore, there is no horizontal vibration vacuum dryer with a capacity greater than three cubic meters successfully produced and used in China at present.

[0054] The embodiment can design and produce various super-large horizontal eccentric vibration vacuum dryers with a maximum of 50 cubic meters, fill the gap of such dryers at home and abroad, and greatly meet the needs of the current domestic chemical, pharmaceutical, new energy, and new material industries for large, efficient, and environmentally friendly dryers.

[0055] In addition, the hot air injection pipe 22 is additionally arranged in the drying container of the embodiment, which combines convection drying and conduction drying, has high thermal efficiency, greatly shortens the drying time, and solves the problems of some special materials in the vacuum drying process. For example, for the drying of new energy materials, the initial moisture content of the material is 20%, and the product moisture content is required to be less than 0.1%. The horizontal vibration vacuum dryer produced abroad is used for drying, and the drying time is several hours, and there is a serious wall sticking and caking phenomenon. The same initial moisture content of the material is used for drying by the dryer of the embodiment, and the same heating temperature is used for drying. The hot air injection is performed for the first hour, the vibration fluidized bed drying is performed, the sampling detection shows that the moisture content is 7%, and then the vacuum drying is performed. The sampling detection shows that the standard is reached after three hours, the effect is remarkable, and the energy is saved.
