[0031] Example 1, as Figures 1-9As shown, the electroplating sludge auxiliary drying equipment includes a sludge chamber 1, with drying chambers 2 connected to both sides of the sludge chamber 1 respectively. An auxiliary drying device is arranged inside the drying chamber 2, and a hydraulic reciprocating driving mechanism is arranged inside the sludge chamber 1. The hydraulic reciprocating driving mechanism is in transmission connection with the middle part of the sludge dragging spiral pipe 3. Both ends of the sludge dragging spiral pipe 3 penetrate through both sides of the sludge chamber 1 and extend into the drying chamber 2, and spiral grooves 33 are arranged at both ends of the sludge dragging spiral pipe 3; The hydraulic reciprocating driving mechanism includes a transmission box 8 fixed inside the sludge chamber 1. The auxiliary drying device includes a water inlet pipe 13 penetrating through the sludge chamber 1. The water inlet pipe 13 is communicated with a first driving cylinder 15 inside the transmission box 8. The first driving cylinder 15 is in transmission connection with a missing gear 82, and the missing gear 82 is in transmission connection with a waist-shaped tooth ring 81. The waist-shaped tooth ring 81 is fixed on the sludge dragging spiral pipe 3; The sludge dragging spiral pipe 3 includes a middle section 31 fixedly connected with the waist-shaped tooth ring 81. Both ends of the middle section 31 are rotatably connected with spiral sections 32, and the spiral grooves 33 are arranged on the spiral sections 32. A scraper 121 extending into the spiral grooves 33 is rotatably connected to the side of the sludge chamber 1; The water inlet pipe 13 extends into the middle section 31 of the sludge dragging spiral pipe 3. The middle section 31 and the spiral sections 32 are hollow and communicated inside. There are multiple sludge dragging spiral pipes 3 arranged in parallel.

[0032] When the sludge is dried, the sludge is added to the sludge chamber 1 through the filling port 11. Drying chambers 2 are set on both sides of the sludge chamber 1. Mud discharge holes 12 are set on the side of the sludge chamber 1. The sludge spiral tube 3 moves horizontally in the mud discharge hole 12. When driving the sludge spiral tube 3 to move horizontally, hot water of a certain pressure enters the sludge spiral tube 3 from the water inlet pipe 13. The sludge spiral tube 3 is made of heat-conducting metal material. The heat of the hot water is transferred to the inside of the sludge mass in the sludge chamber 1 through the sludge spiral tube 3. At the same time, driven by the hot water pressure, the driving impeller 151 in the first driving cylinder 15 rotates. The driving impeller 151 is coaxially fixedly connected to the missing gear 82 in the transmission box 8. The missing gear 82 is meshed with the waist-shaped gear ring 81, which can drive the waist-shaped gear ring 81 to move. The waist-shaped gear ring 81 is fixedly connected to the middle section 31 of the sludge spiral tube 3, which can make the sludge spiral tube 3 move horizontally to one side. During the horizontal movement of the sludge spiral tube 3, the sludge near the spiral section 32 enters The sludge is then drawn into the sludge chamber 1 and dried under high temperature. The sludge is then drawn into the sludge chamber 1 and dried under high temperature. The waist-shaped gear ring 81 is a structure with gear plates on the upper and lower parts and arc plates connected at both ends. The missing gear 82 rotates until it disengages from the upper gear plate and then engages with the lower gear plate. The alternating meshing mode allows the missing gear 82 to rotate continuously and drive the waist-shaped gear ring 81 to reciprocate in the transmission box 8. When hot water is continuously supplied, the temperature of the mud-dragging spiral tube 3 can also be maintained. The scraper 121 is connected to the outside of the mud-discharging hole 12 by a spring. When the spiral section 32 moves in the opposite direction with the mud-dragging spiral tube 3, the scraper 121 blocks the sludge in the spiral groove 33, so that the sludge is discharged into the drying chamber 2 for further absorption of heat and drying. The two spiral sections 32 are fixed by a connecting rod 34, and the transmission box 8 is fixed in the sludge chamber 1 by a fixing rod 83.

[0033] Example 2, as Figures 1-9 As shown, the electroplating sludge auxiliary drying equipment includes a sludge chamber 1, and drying chambers 2 are connected to the two sides of the sludge chamber 1 respectively. An auxiliary drying device is provided in the drying chamber 2. A hydraulic reciprocating drive mechanism is provided in the sludge chamber 1, and the hydraulic reciprocating drive mechanism is transmission-connected to the middle part of the mud dragging spiral tube 3.

Spiral grooves 33 are provided at both ends of the mud dragging spiral tube 3; an electric heating tube is provided on the inner side of the drying chamber 2, and the electric heating tube is fixedly connected to the radiation plate. Slide cylinders 6 are provided on both sides of the drying chamber 2, and a flow-aiding piston 63 is provided in the slide cylinder 6; the outer end of the slide cylinder 6 is connected to the second drive cylinder 53, the second drive cylinder 53 is connected to the cam 61, and the cam 61 is connected to the flow-aiding piston 63 through a connecting rod 62, and the second drive cylinder 53 is connected to the water inlet pipe 13; the bottom of the drying chamber 2 is rotatably connected to the conveying shaft, and the conveying shaft is rotatably connected to the conveyor belt 21, and the conveying shaft is transmission-connected to the third drive cylinder 51.

[0034] The drying method uses an electric heating tube and a radiation plate to heat and dry. The density of the heating tube and the radiation plate is relatively large, which is not shown in the figure. The hot water passes through the mud-dragging spiral tube 3 and is discharged from the water outlet pipe 14. After being mixed in the central tube 4, it enters the circulation pipe 5. In the process of passing through the circulation pipe 5, the cam 61 in the second driving cylinder 53 is driven to rotate, thereby rotating the cam 61. A ball groove is set on the side of the cam 61. A ball is connected to the ball groove. The ball is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 62. The ball fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod 62 is located in the ball groove on the side of the flow-aiding piston 63. The flow-aiding piston 63 is axially slidable and radially fixed in the slide 6. When the cam 61 rotates, the connecting rod 62 rotates the piston to move, so that the flow-aiding piston 63 slides in the slide 6, accelerating the air flow velocity in the drying chamber 2, and further improving the drying rate. The sludge falling in the drying chamber 2 falls on the conveyor belt 21. The conveyor belt 21 is made of flexible metal, such as a high-density conveying net, which can maintain stable operation under high temperature conditions and support the sludge. The conveying shaft connected to the conveyor belt 21 is connected to the third driving cylinder 51, and the conveyor belt 21 is driven by water pressure.

[0036] After being heated in the drying chamber 2, the sludge is conveyed by the conveyor belt 21 to the end and falls into the return chamber 23. A return mechanism 22 is provided in the return chamber 23 to convey the heated sludge into the sludge chamber 1 through the return pipe, that is, the heated sludge re-enters the sludge chamber 1 and mixes with the sludge mass, so that the internal heat of the sludge is higher. The sludge circulates in the sludge chamber 1 and the drying chamber 2 and is assisted by hot water to make the heat distribution in the sludge mass uniform, so that it can be dried quickly. The hot water uses solar water or waste hot water from the factory.

[0037] When the fourth driving cylinder 52 operates, the driving disk 521 fixedly connected coaxially with the fourth driving cylinder 52 rotates, the transmission disk 523 connected to the driving disk 521 through the driving rod 522 rotates, and the transmission disk 523 is fixedly connected coaxially with the return material spiral shaft in the return material pipe, so that the heated sludge in the return material chamber 23 can be conveyed back to the sludge chamber 1. The stirring paddle 35 is fixedly connected to the spiral section 32 of the mud dragging spiral pipe 3, so that the spiral section 32 drives the stirring paddle 35 to rotate during the movement, thereby mixing the high-calorie sludge and the low-calorie sludge and uniformly heating the sludge. During the sludge temperature rising stage, a large amount of heat is provided by the hot water, which can reduce the power consumption, and the water discharged from the circulation pipe 5 is discharged through the drain port 7.
