DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 10 A plain brick drying device includes a closed box 10 and a plurality of electric heaters 2, wherein the upper and lower inner walls of the box 10 are provided with a plurality of electric heaters 2, both sides of the box 10 are provided with openings 101 and the inner side walls of the box 10 are inclined, and further includes:
[0031] Transfer rotation, used to transfer the plain bricks to be dried from one of the openings 101 into the box 10;
[0032] A U-shaped first support base 3, which is rotatably connected to one end of the box body 10;
[0033] A first driving device, used for driving one end of the box body 10 to rotate on the first support seat 3;
[0034] Several fixing devices are used to fix some of the plain bricks after they are moved into the box 10;
[0035] The receiving device is used to receive the plain bricks flowing out from the other opening 101 after the box body 10 is tilted. In the present invention, a plurality of electric heaters 2 are operated to raise the temperature inside the box 10. After the formed tiles are transported to the bottom of the transfer rotation, the transfer rotation transfers the tiles to be dried from the left opening 101 into the box 10. Since the two inner side walls of the box 10 are inclined, only the lower end surface and the intersection of the two sides of the tiles contact the inner wall of the box 10, so that the tiles to be dried are heated more evenly. When the first drive device is operated to drive one end of the box 10 to rotate on the first support seat 3, the box 10 is in an inclined rotation state. After the tiles slide a certain distance in the box 10, the first drive device is operated to drive the box 10 back to its original position. The transfer rotation transfers the formed tiles from the left opening 101 into the box 10 again. The first drive device is operated to drive one end of the box 10 to rotate on the first support seat 3, and the tiles slide in the box 10. The above action is repeated until the tiles are dried and slide out of the right opening 101 and fall onto the receiving device for transportation to the next process. Specifically, the electric heater 2 is an electric heating tube, a heating wire or other device that generates heat when powered.
[0036] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it may also have the following additional technical features:
[0037] In this embodiment, the transfer rotation includes a screw mechanism 4, a cylinder 5, a cross plate 6, and a plurality of vacuum suction cups 7. The screw mechanism 4 is arranged on the drive device, and the cylinder 5 is arranged on the movable part of the screw mechanism 4. The cylinder 5 is used to drive the cross plate 6 to move up and down. The cross plate 6 is provided with a plurality of vacuum suction cups 7. The cylinder 5 operates to drive the cross plate 6 downward. After the vacuum suction cups 7 come into contact with the tiles, the external suction device operates to extract the air in the vacuum suction cups 7 so that the vacuum suction cups 7 adhere to the tiles. The cylinder 5 operates to drive the cross plate 6 upward and back to its original position. The screw mechanism 4 operates to drive the cross plate 6 to move rightward, so that the tiles are transferred from the left opening 101 into the box 10. After most of the tiles have entered the box 10, the external suction device stops operating, and the screw mechanism 4 operates to drive the cross plate 6 back to its original position. Specifically, a connecting plate is provided at the top of the cylinder 5, which is connected to the movable part of the screw mechanism 4. The screw mechanism 4 is prior art and will not be described here. When the vacuum suction cups 7 downwardly adhere to the tiles, they adhere to the left side of the tiles.
[0038] In this embodiment, the first drive device includes a U-shaped second support base 8, a wire rod 9, a support block 11, a motor 12, and a first pull rope 13. The second support base 8 is disposed at one end of the housing 10. The support block 11 and the motor 12 are both disposed on the second support base 8. The motor 12 is used to drive the wire rod 9 to rotate on the support block 11. The first pull rope 13 connects the housing 10 and the wire rod 9. When the motor 12 is operated, the wire rod 9 rotates to retract the first pull rope 13. The first pull rope 13 pulls one end of the housing 10 so that the other end rotates on the first support base 3. When the motor 12 is operated and drives the wire rod 9 to rotate in the opposite direction, the first pull rope 13 is released, and the housing 10 returns to its original position. Specifically, a horizontal plate is disposed at one end of the second support base 8, and the screw mechanism 4 is disposed on the horizontal plate. The first drive device can also be a hydraulic rod, one end of which is rotatably connected to the bottom of the housing 10. When the hydraulic rod is operated, the one end of the housing 10 rotates back and forth on the first support base 3.
[0039] In this embodiment, both sides of the box body 10 are provided with a number of slots 102 with different inclination angles; the fixing device includes a first slider 14, a T-shaped rod 15, a first spring 16, a trapezoidal rod 17, a pressing sleeve 18 and a second spring 19, the first slider 14 can slide in the slot 102 and the first slider 14 is provided with a first slide groove 141 and a first insertion hole 142, the T-shaped rod 15 can slide in the first slide groove 141 and the T-shaped rod 15 is provided with an annular stopper 151 and a second insertion hole 152, the first spring 16 is sleeved on the T-shaped rod 15, the trapezoidal rod 17 is provided in the slot 102, the pressing sleeve 18 is slidably provided at one end of the T-shaped rod 15, and the second spring 19 is provided in the pressing sleeve 18. After the tile enters from the opening 101 on the left side, the right end of the tile contacts the pressing sleeve 18 at the left end. When the box body 10 rotates and tilts, due to the slot 102 is tilted, and the tilt angle increases from left to right, and the tilt angle of the left side of the box 10 is greater than that of the right side. The tiles in the box 10 slide from left to right in sequence, and the first slider 14 from left to right slides in the groove 102 in sequence. When the left side of the tile moves to contact the pressure sleeve 18, the right side of the tile contacts the next pressure sleeve 18, and so on. The trapezoidal rod 17 passes through the first hole 142 and the second hole 152 in sequence, and the T-shaped rod 15 moves to drive the pressure sleeve 18 to move and clamp the side of the tile to fix the tile. After drying, the rightmost tile of the box 10 has no contact with the pressure sleeve 18 and flows from the opening 101 on the right to slide out and fall onto the receiving device for transportation to the next process. After the box 10 returns to its original position, the first slider 14 moves in the opposite direction in the groove 102 to return to its original position, driving the pressure sleeve 18 back to its original position. This structural design can prevent the tiles in the box 10 from colliding with each other after the box 10 is tilted. Specifically, ear plates are provided on the upper and lower end surfaces of the first sliding block 14 , and sliding grooves are provided on the upper and lower walls of the notch 102 , and the ear plates cooperate with the sliding grooves.
[0040] In this embodiment, the receiving device includes a conveying mechanism 20, a vertical plate 21, at least one buffer rope 22, a second driving device, and two support plates 23, a second slider 24, a guide rod 25 and a third spring 26. The support plate 23 is arranged on the vertical plate 21 and is provided with a second slide groove 231. The guide rod 25 is arranged in the second slide groove 231. The second slider 24 can slide on the guide rod 25. The third spring 26 is arranged at the bottom of the second slider 24. The buffer rope 22 connects the two second sliders 24. The second drive device is used to drive one end of the plain-colored tiles that have fallen from the box 10 onto the buffer rope 22. The conveyor mechanism 20 is used to transport the plain-colored tiles. After the tiles flow out of the right opening 101, one end of the tiles falls onto the conveyor mechanism 20. After all the tiles are discharged, the left side of the tiles falls onto the buffer rope 22. The buffer rope 22 is forced to move the second slider 24 downward and compress the third spring 26. The second drive device operates to drive the left side of the tiles so that most of the tiles move to the conveyor mechanism 20. The conveyor mechanism 20 transports the tiles. The buffer rope 22 acts as a buffer after the tiles fall. Specifically, the conveyor mechanism 20 is a belt conveyor mechanism.
[0041] In this embodiment, one side of the second slider 24 is a slope; the second driving device includes a U-shaped bottom plate 27, an L-shaped push plate 28, a second pull rope 29 and a limiting device, the vertical plate 21 can slide on the bottom plate 27, the L-shaped push plate 28 is arranged on the vertical plate 21, the second pull rope 29 connects the box body 10 and the vertical plate 21, and the limiting device is used to limit one end of the plain brick that falls on the buffer rope 22. After the tiles flow out from the opening 101 on the right, only a small part of them falls on the conveying mechanism 20 and cannot drive the tiles to move. The box body 10 rotates to pull the second pull rope 29, and the second pull rope 29 pulls the vertical plate 21 to the left. When the box body 10 returns to its original position, the vertical plate 21 slides to the right on the bottom plate 27 under the action of its own gravity, and the L-shaped push plate 28 moves to the right to push the tiles to move to the right and move them to the feeding mechanism 20. Specifically, ear plates are provided on both side end surfaces of the vertical plate 21, and sliding grooves are provided on both side walls of the bottom plate 27, and the ear plates cooperate with the sliding grooves.
[0042] In this embodiment, the limiting device includes a limiting plate 30 and two abutment rods 31. The abutment rods 31 are obliquely arranged on the L-shaped push plate 28 and can slide relative to it. One end of the abutment rod 31 is connected to the limiting plate 30, and one end of the abutment rod 31 contacts the shoe surface on one side of the second slider 24. The left side of the tile falls on the buffer rope 22. The buffer rope 22 is driven by the force to drive the second slider 24 downward and squeeze the third spring 26. The abutment rod 31 slides to the right on the L-shaped push plate 28 to make the limiting plate 30 slide to the right above the buffer rope 22, preventing the tile from falling onto the buffer rope 22 and being bounced off the two support plates 23.
[0043] In this embodiment, protective boxes 103 are provided on both sides of the box body 10 to reduce the loss of heat in the box body 10 .
