Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cotton swab production, and in particular to a drying device for cotton swab production. Background Art
[0002] Cotton swabs, also known as wiping sticks, are small wooden or plastic sticks slightly larger than matchsticks wrapped with a little sterilized cotton. They are mainly used in medical treatment to apply medicines, absorb pus and blood, etc. Cotton swabs are mainly used on wounds on the human body. Wiping the wound with a cotton swab can effectively help disinfect the wound and stop bleeding.
[0003] In the production process of medical cotton swabs, the cotton swabs need to be heated and dried to remove the moisture inside them and prevent the growth of microorganisms and bacteria. The existing cotton swabs are sequentially conveyed to the cotton swab conveyor chain by a chain wheel, and then the cotton swabs move into the drying box along with the cotton swab conveyor chain for drying. At this time, if the drying effect of the cotton swabs is to be guaranteed, a longer drying area needs to be arranged, which takes up more space. At the same time, the cotton swabs cannot be turned over in the drying box, and the drying effect needs to be improved.
[0004] Announcement No. CN212962643U proposes a microwave drying device for cotton swab production. The device achieves uniform delivery and drying of messy cotton swabs by setting a first feeding rack and a second feeding rack, greatly improving delivery efficiency and achieving rapid drying. By setting a first slide plate and a second slide plate, the cotton swabs can be flipped 360 degrees during the sliding process to increase the contact with the heat inside the drying box for secondary drying, thereby improving the drying effect of the cotton swabs; however, the device cannot achieve automatic discharging of cotton swabs.

Chain 13 is located between the feeding cotton swab conveyor chain 11 and the discharging cotton swab conveyor chain 14. The distance between the top turning cotton swab conveyor chain 13 and the feeding cotton swab conveyor chain 11 and the distance between the bottom turning cotton swab conveyor chain 13 and the discharging cotton swab conveyor chain 14 are the same as the distance between two adjacent turning cotton swab conveyor chains 13. The feeding cotton swab conveyor chain 11 and the turning cotton swab conveyor chain 13 are respectively rotatably connected to one side of the end thereof with a sprocket wheel 12, and the sprocket wheel 12 is connected to a driving component. A heating component is arranged at the bottom of the drying box 1.
[0026] Specifically, the driving assembly includes a rotating shaft 121, a driven pulley 122, a driving pulley 123, a belt 124 and a driving motor 125. Four rotating shafts 121 are rotatably connected inside the drying box 1 through bearings, and two of them are grouped together. A sprocket wheel 12 is provided on the rotating shaft 121, and one end of the rotating shaft 121 extends to the outside of the drying box 1. The two rotating shafts 121 in a group are respectively provided with a driving pulley 123 and a driven pulley 122.
