Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cat litter production, for example, to a drying device for cat litter processing. Background Art
[0002] At present, cat litter is often made of bentonite. In the process of using bentonite to make cat litter, the granulated bentonite sand needs to enter the dryer for drying to remove the contained water. The related technology (publication number: CN114576984A) discloses a drying hot air blower for bentonite production and processing cat litter. The first motor drives the reciprocating screw to rotate, so that the storage bin can be reciprocated, so that the material in the storage bin is evenly scattered to the inside of multiple air-drying shells. The hot air blower blows air from the air duct into the hollow plate, and then blows it into the inside of multiple air-drying shells through multiple second L-shaped tubes, and the material passing through the air-drying shell can be preliminarily dried. The material enters the discharge shell, and is thrown into the inside of the second drying shell through the inclined guide tube. The hot air blower blows air from the multiple first L-shaped tubes into the second drying shell, and the material thrown out by the guide tube can be secondary dried.
[0003] In the process of implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, it is found that there are at least the following problems in the related art:
[0004] Under the action of gravity, cat litter will pass through the air drying shell, the material discharge box and the guide tube in sequence, and finally fall into the second drying shell. When the cat litter passes through the air drying shell, the drying time is short, resulting in incomplete drying. When the cat litter falls into the second drying shell, it will pile up together, resulting in uneven heating of the cat litter.
[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.
