Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of energy-saving and environmental protection equipment technology, specifically a compression and drying integrated volume reduction device and its working method. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional food waste treatment equipment typically uses a screw feeding mechanism to squeeze out water before using a separate drying device for the waste reduction section (which includes separate compression and drying sections). This increases the overall size and floor space required for the equipment. Furthermore, the process of conveying the waste to the drying device via a lifting or other conveying mechanism is time-consuming and adds an extra material handling step, which means there is an additional waste residue step. This affects the efficiency and proportion of compression reduction, and increases the cost of waste treatment. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In order to overcome the defects and deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides an integrated compression and drying reduction device and its working method that integrates the compression reduction section and the drying reduction section of a waste treatment equipment. The device has a simple and compact structure, which can reduce the overall size of the equipment, reduce the floor space, and eliminate the material conveying link from the compression reduction section to the drying reduction section, thereby improving the reduction efficiency, increasing the reduction ratio, and reducing the cost of waste treatment.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an integrated extrusion and drying reduction device, comprising an extrusion section and a drying section that cooperate with each other, wherein the drying section is connected to the discharge end of the extrusion section, the extrusion section includes an extrusion mesh cylinder and a variable pitch screw feeding mechanism disposed within the extrusion mesh cylinder, and the drying section includes a high-temperature heating cylinder and a screw feeding mechanism disposed within the high-temperature heating cylinder, wherein the high-temperature heating cylinder is a double-sealed cylinder, and high-temperature heat transfer oil circulates within the double-sealed cylinder; the feed end of the high-temperature heating cylinder is connected to the discharge end of the extrusion mesh cylinder, and the inner diameter of the extrusion mesh cylinder is the same as the inner diameter of the high-temperature heating cylinder.
[0005] This invention integrates the compression reduction section and the drying reduction section of the waste treatment equipment into one, resulting in a simple and compact structure. This reduces the overall size of the equipment, decreases the floor space required, and eliminates the material conveying link between the compression reduction section and the drying reduction section, thereby improving reduction efficiency, increasing the reduction ratio, and reducing waste treatment costs.
[0006] Preferably, the variable pitch screw feeding mechanism and the screw feeding mechanism are an integral structure, and the inner wall ring of the variable pitch screw feeding mechanism and the drive shaft, as well as the inner wall ring of the screw feeding mechanism and the drive shaft, are both hollow structures.
[0007] This structure makes it compact, the screw feeding is more stable and reliable, and it can release steam and pressure through internal hollowing while ensuring overall strength, and appropriately reduce weight and production costs.
[0008] Preferably, the inner wall ring of the spiral feeding mechanism is provided with a fine venting gap structure.
[0009] During the drying process, the steam and some oil mixture generated by the material in the drying section are discharged through the gaps in the inner wall of the screw mechanism.
[0010] Preferably, the top of the feed end of the extrusion section is provided with a feed hopper, and the discharge end of the drying section is provided with a discharge port.
[0011] This structure makes its feeding and discharging more stable and reliable.
[0012] Preferably, one end of the high-temperature heating cylinder is provided with a heat transfer oil inlet, and the other end of the high-temperature heating cylinder is provided with a heat transfer oil outlet. The heat transfer oil inlet is located at the feed end of the drying section, and the heat transfer oil outlet is located at the discharge end of the drying section.
[0013] This structure ensures the recyclability of the heat transfer oil inside the high-temperature heating cylinder.
[0014] Preferably, the extrusion section and the drying section are connected by a connecting component, the feed end of the extrusion section is provided with a first mounting component, and the discharge end of the drying section is provided with a second mounting component.
[0015] This structure ensures a smoother and more reliable connection between the extrusion section and the drying section, and facilitates the installation of the entire volume reduction device in the waste treatment equipment.
[0016] Preferably, the drive shaft of the variable pitch screw feeding mechanism and the screw feeding mechanism passes through the interior of the variable pitch screw feeding mechanism and the screw feeding mechanism. The first mounting assembly is provided with a first bearing that matches the drive shaft in the middle, and the second mounting assembly is provided with a second bearing that matches the drive shaft in the middle. One end of the drive shaft is exposed on the outside of the first mounting assembly.
[0017] This structure ensures that the drive shaft drives the variable pitch screw feeder and the screw feeder mechanism more smoothly and reliably.
[0018] Preferably, the inner wall diameter of the variable pitch screw feeder and the inner wall diameter of the screw feeder both gradually increase from the feed end to the discharge end.
[0019] This structure creates a sloping inner cavity between the variable pitch screw feeder and the screw feeder. During the drying process, the steam and some of the oil mixture generated by the material in the drying section are discharged from the outlet along the slope.

By rotating the variable pitch screw feeding mechanism, kitchen waste material is conveyed to the left, and at the same time, the variable pitch screw structure forms extrusion force in the extrusion cylinder. S3. The extrusion cylinder uses a fine mesh to expel water and oil from the material, while the squeezed material continues to move to the left into the drying section under the pressure of the extrusion. S4. High-temperature heat transfer oil circulates inside the high-temperature heating cylinder of the drying section, continuously providing the heat energy required for drying the materials inside the drying section. S5. During the drying process, the steam and some grease generated by the material in the drying section are discharged through the exhaust slit structure on the inner wall of the screw feeding mechanism. S6. Finally, under high temperature, the material with lower water and oil content is discharged from the outlet at the end of the drying section.

The feed end of the high-temperature heating cylinder 5 is connected to the discharge end of the extrusion mesh cylinder 3, and the inner diameter of the extrusion mesh cylinder 3 is the same as the inner diameter of the high-temperature heating cylinder 5.
[0028] The variable pitch screw feeding mechanism 4 and the screw feeding mechanism 6 are integrated structures, and the inner wall ring of the variable pitch screw feeding mechanism 4 and the drive shaft 16, as well as the inner wall ring of the screw feeding mechanism 6 and the drive shaft 16, are hollow structures.
[0029] The inner wall ring of the spiral feeding mechanism 6 is provided with a fine exhaust slit structure 8.
[0030] The top of the feed end of the extrusion section 1 is provided with a feed hopper 9, and the discharge end of the drying section 2 is provided with a discharge port 10.
[0031] One end of the high-temperature heating cylinder 5 is provided with a heat transfer oil inlet 11, and the other end of the high-temperature heating cylinder 5 is provided with a heat transfer oil outlet 12. The heat transfer oil inlet 11 is located at the feeding end of the drying section 2, and the heat transfer oil outlet 12 is located at the discharging end of the drying section 2.

[0033] The drive shaft 16 of the variable pitch screw feeding mechanism 4 and the screw feeding mechanism 6 passes through the interior of the variable pitch screw feeding mechanism 4 and the screw feeding mechanism 6. The first mounting assembly 14 is provided with a first bearing 17 that cooperates with the drive shaft 16 in the middle.

[0036] A method for operating an integrated extrusion and drying weight reduction device includes the following steps: 1. First, kitchen waste enters the extrusion mechanism (extrusion section) below through the feed hopper. 2. The extrusion mechanism consists of a variable pitch screw feeding mechanism and an extrusion screen cylinder. The variable pitch screw feeding mechanism rotates to convey kitchen waste to the left, while the variable pitch screw structure creates extrusion pressure within the screen cylinder (e.g., ...). Figure 1 (as shown) 3. The extrusion cylinder, through a fine mesh (not shown in the diagram), forces water and oil out of the material, while the squeezed-dry material continues to move to the left into the drying section under the pressure of the extrusion. Figure 1 (as shown) 4. The drying section consists of a high-temperature heating cylinder and a screw feeding mechanism. The high-temperature heating cylinder is a double-layer cylinder with high-temperature heat transfer oil circulating inside the double-sealed cylinder (a heat transfer oil circulation supply mechanism is required) to continuously provide the heat energy required for drying the material inside the cylinder. 5. The inner wall of the screw feeding mechanism in the drying section has a fine exhaust gap structure. During the drying process, the steam and some grease generated by the material in the drying section are discharged through the gaps in the inner wall of the screw feeding mechanism. (Because the inner wall of the screw feeding mechanism has a certain slope, the steam and grease (oil and water) will go along the slope to the end of the screw feeding mechanism. There are several baffles on the end face of the screw feeding mechanism, and there is a drain hole in the middle. During the rotation, the steam and grease (oil and water) will be carried to the drain hole in the middle through the rotation of the baffles and discharged from the drain hole.) 6. Finally, under high temperature, the material with lower water and oil content is discharged from the outlet at the end of the drying section.
