AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing dryer drainage systems rely on electronic components, which are susceptible to moisture, resulting in slow drainage and easy clogging of the filter, requiring frequent manual cleaning and affecting continuous equipment operation.

Method used

Design an automated drainage device comprising components such as a float plate, pusher block, chute, air cylinder, liquid outlet pipe, and filter plate. The float plate slides to drive the pusher block, which in turn pushes the slide rod and piston. The pressure valve is opened by the rotation and pressurization of the gas, thus achieving automatic drainage. The rotating gas also drives a scraper to clean the filter plate, ensuring efficient flow.

Benefits of technology

The system enables automated condensate drainage, reducing residual odors and bacterial growth in the condensate, extending the filter plate replacement cycle, reducing the frequency of manual cleaning, and ensuring continuous operation of the dryer.
