[0033] Compared with the prior art, the application has the following advantages:

[0034] 1. The corn drying system capable of fast and uniform drying, when the application is used, the corn to be dried is first placed in the pre-storage space between the preheating cone and the inner side of the top end of the drying cylinder, then the heating cylinder is worked to make the air outlet disc blow out hot air, the hot air goes upwards in the inner side of the drying cylinder, and the hot air preheats the preheating cone after passing through the spiral channel in the inner side of the preheating cone, so that the preheating cone preheats the corn in the pre-storage space, thereby preventing the corn from exploding when it instantaneously encounters high temperature, and the preheating process can be parallel to the subsequent drying process.

[0035] 2. This corn drying system, capable of rapid and uniform drying, controls the rotation of a motor. When the motor rotates, it drives the upper rotating ring to rotate. As the upper rotating ring rotates, when the through hole on the upper rotating ring connects with the feeding hole at the edge of the preheating cone, the corn moves downward under the action of gravity. Initially, the through hole on the upper rotating ring is offset from the preheating cone to allow the corn to be placed in the pre-storage space. The falling corn will land on the upper grid. With the upper grid tilted, it slides along the spiral inner radial direction of the upper grid to the center of the upper grid. This setting can greatly increase the path that the corn takes when falling, thereby increasing the time for falling and drying, so that the corn can be fully dried. Each corn has the same falling path, thus increasing the drying effect and achieving uniform drying.

[0036] 3. In this invention, a corn drying system that can dry corn quickly and evenly is provided with a perforation on the inner side of the spiral.

In this invention, a corn drying system that can dry corn quickly and evenly, the spiral strip can also be slidably connected to the upper grid and the spiral strip can be fixedly connected to the upper rotating ring to maintain synchronous movement. When the upper rotating ring and the spiral strip rotate, they force the corn to slide on the inner diameter of the spiral strip, preventing the corn from getting clogged due to excessive friction on the inner diameter of the spiral strip. Clogging can also be prevented by increasing the downward tilt of the upper grid.

[0038] 5. This corn drying system can dry corn quickly and evenly. Corn falling from the upper grid will fall onto the upper side of the lower grid, and then fall into the inner side of the discharge space through the discharge gap at the edge of the lower grid. The dried corn in the discharge space can be discharged by opening the discharge pipe.

[0039] 6. The present invention provides a corn drying system that can dry corn quickly and evenly. An inclined ring is fixedly connected to the inside of the pre-storage space. The inclined ring causes the corn in the pre-storage space to pass through and approach the preheating cone when it is fed, thereby ensuring the uniformity of preheating.

[0040] 7. The corn drying system capable of fast and uniform drying, in order to prevent the through hole on the upper rotating ring from being communicated with the discharging hole on the edge position of the preheating cone when the hot air with moisture enters into the pre-storing space through the gap between the through hole on the upper rotating ring and the discharging hole, the lower rotating ring synchronously rotating with the upper rotating ring is further arranged, the through hole on the lower rotating ring is staggered with the through hole on the upper rotating ring, and the storage cylinder is arranged between the upper rotating ring and the lower rotating ring, when the through hole on the upper rotating ring is communicated with the discharging hole on the edge position of the preheating cone, the corn enters into the inside of the storage cylinder, at this time, the through hole on the lower rotating ring is not communicated with the bottom end of the storage cylinder, namely, the bottom end of the storage cylinder is closed at this time, with the continuous rotation of the upper rotating ring and the lower rotating ring, when the through hole on the lower rotating ring is communicated with the bottom end of the storage cylinder, the through hole on the upper rotating ring will not be communicated with the top end of the storage cylinder, at this time, the corn in the storage cylinder is discharged, the storage cylinder plays a role of temporary storage, and the hot air with moisture is prevented from entering into the inside of the pre-storing space, and the drying effect on the corn is further ensured.

[0041] 8. The corn drying system capable of fast and uniform drying, the preheating cone is a heat accumulating element, the heat accumulating element can be iron sheets arranged in an interval and stacked, which is used for temporarily storing heat energy and transferring the heat energy into the pre-storing space to realize preheating.

[0042] 9. The corn drying system capable of fast and uniform drying, the heat accumulating element in the application can also be oil liquid which can flow, in order to prevent the heat accumulating element from overheating and further increase the heat utilization efficiency, the heat accumulating element is further fixedly connected with a heat exchange cylinder on the inside of one end of the heating cylinder, the oil liquid is filled in the cavities and the inside of the heat exchange cylinder, and is circulated through an oil pump, the heat absorbed by the heat accumulating element can realize preheating of the corn in the pre-storing space and preheating of the air entering into the heating cylinder, and the utilization effect of heat is further increased.
