When the gas pressure inside the drying chamber 7 is too high, the user can see the overpressure signal through the control box 8. The temperature sensor is used to detect the drying temperature inside the drying chamber 7. When the temperature is too high or too low, it is necessary to adaptively adjust the temperature of the heating coil 10. Through the settings of the air inlet duct 3, the return air duct 4 and the cross pipe 5, the workers place the plates on the plate placement rack before drying. They only need to keep the plates in a vertical state. Rollers are set at the four corners of the bottom of the placement rack to facilitate the placement rack to be pushed into the drying chamber 7. One drying chamber 7 can accommodate multiple placement racks. The rack enters, and when all the racks are placed, drying begins. The air supply equipment sends the drying gas into the drying chamber 7 through the air inlet pipe 3, the cross pipe 5 and the air inlet channel 9. After the drying gas is heated by the heating coil 10, the temperature reaches the applicable range. The drying gas passes through the drying chamber 7 and the partition 6 on the right to enter the return air channel 11. Under the action of the vacuum pump, it is sent out by the return air pipe 4. Compared with the structure of similar drying boxes on the market, this method can be used to dry larger plates. Workers only need to push the racks with multiple plates mounted on them into the drying chamber 7. It is easy to operate and the equipment is more universal.

[0026] Considering that when the drying gas enters the drying chamber 7, it will be sent out from the return air channel 11 and the return air duct 4 after passing through the electrode plate and the placement rack. The drying effect cannot reach the best, and there are easy to be drying dead corners. A plurality of baffles 12 arranged up and down are rotatably connected to the right side wall of the partition 6. The baffle 12 at least blocks more than two rows of filter holes. The inner side of the baffle 12 is provided with two symmetrically distributed slide grooves 13. A connecting pin 14 penetrating the partition 6 is arranged in the slide groove 13. The connecting pin 14 slides up and down in the slide groove 13. A connecting groove 15 is provided in the slide groove 13. A connecting shaft 16 penetrating the connecting pin 14 is arranged in the connecting groove 15. The connecting pin 14 and the slide groove 13 not only have a sliding relationship, but also rotate in the slide groove 13. The front and rear end surfaces of the connecting pin 14 away from the slide groove 13 are both arc surfaces. A plurality of connecting rods 17 arranged equidistantly up and down are arranged in the return air channel 11. The number of the plurality of connecting rods 17 matches the baffle 12.

A servo motor is fixed at one end of one of the connecting rods 17 that passes through the outer side of the shell 1. The servo motor can adjust the speed according to the use requirements. The plurality of connecting rods 17 are connected in pairs through a belt transmission structure. A slider 18 is slidably connected to the connecting rod 17. A bayonet engaged with the reciprocating thread is arranged in the slider 18. When the connecting rod 17 rotates, the reciprocating thread squeezes the bayonet to move. The slider 1 8 is fixed with a connecting plate 19, and a stopper 20 is fixed at one end of the connecting plate 19 away from the slider 18, and both sides of the stopper 20 are arranged with arc surfaces. When the stopper 20 contacts the connecting pin 14, as the stopper 20 continues to move, the connecting pin 14 is squeezed by the stopper 20 and translates to one side of the inside of the drying chamber 7. A guide rod 21 penetrating the partition 6 is fixed on the top of the connecting pin 14, and the guide rod 21 is connected to the partition 6 by a spring. When the stopper 20 is out of contact with the connecting pin 14, the connecting pin 14 is reset under the action of the spring. A plurality of limiting grooves 25 located below the connecting pin 14 are provided on the partition 6, and a limiting block 26 is fixed on one side of the stopper 20, and the limiting block 26 slides inside the limiting groove 25 to limit the card The movement direction of the block is limited by the limit groove 25, and the block 20 can move in a straight line. Through the settings of the connecting pin 14, the baffle 12 and the connecting rod 17, when the baffle 12 is in the initial state, the filter holes on the right side of the partition 6 are completely blocked. At this time, after the drying gas enters the drying chamber 7, it stays in the drying chamber 7 for about 1-3 minutes. The servo motor starts to drive the connecting rod 17 to rotate, and the block 20 moves back and forth within the stroke of the reciprocating thread. During the movement of the block 20, the block 20 will squeeze the connecting pin 14 to move. At this time, the block 20 slowly unfolds, and the drying gas accumulated in the drying chamber 7 quickly enters the return air channel 11 through the filter holes. When the block 20 is out of contact with the connecting pin 14, the connecting pin 14 is reset under the action of the spring.In this way, the gas turbulence inside the drying chamber 7 is achieved, so that the high-temperature gas inside the drying chamber 7 stays longer, the gas diffusion is wider, the drying efficiency of the drying equipment is improved, and the servo motor is prevented from constantly starting and stopping.

[0027] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to enhance the gas circulation inside the transverse tube 5 and enable the gas in the air inlet pipe 3 to enter the air inlet channel 9 faster, a plurality of the transverse tubes 5 are respectively provided with a rotating shaft passing through the shell 1, and a guide fan blade 22 located in the transverse tube 5 is coaxially fixed on the rotating shaft, and a transmission motor 23 is fixed on one end of the rotating shaft that passes through the outside of the shell 1, a control box 8 is provided on the shell 1, and a control module is provided in the control box 8, the control box 8 is electrically connected to the plurality of transmission motors 23 by signals, and the control box 8 is electrically connected to the servo motor by signals.

[0028] refer to Figure 3 As shown, in order to limit the position of the placement rack entering the drying chamber 7, two symmetrically distributed limiting rails 24 are provided at the bottom of the drying chamber 7. The limiting rails 24 stipulate that the placement rack is always in the middle area of ​​the drying chamber 7.

[0029] In order to prevent the air inlet pipe 3 and the air return pipe 4 from being directly exposed to the air, which may cause burns to workers when they are inspecting and repairing the pipes, the outer walls of the air inlet pipe 3 and the air return pipe 4 are wrapped with heat-insulating tin foil.

[0030] When the utility model is used:

[0031] First, place the plate on the plate placement rack. You only need to keep the plate in a vertical state. Rollers are set at the four corners of the bottom of the rack to facilitate the rack to be pushed into the drying chamber 7. One drying chamber 7 can accommodate multiple racks. When all racks are placed, start drying.

[0032] Then, the air supply device delivers the drying gas into the drying chamber 7 through the air inlet pipe 3, the transverse pipe 5 and the air inlet channel 9. After the drying gas is heated by the heating coil 10, the temperature reaches the applicable range. The drying gas passes through the drying chamber 7. When the baffle 12 is in the initial state, the filter holes on the right side of the partition 6 are completely blocked. At this time, after the drying gas enters the drying chamber 7, it stays in the drying chamber 7 for about 1-3 minutes.

[0033] Secondly, the servo motor starts to drive the connecting rod 17 to rotate, and the block 20 reciprocates within the stroke of the reciprocating thread. During the movement of the block 20, the block 20 squeezes the connecting pin 14 to move. At this time, the block 20 slowly expands, and the drying gas accumulated in the drying chamber 7 quickly enters the return air channel 11 through the filter hole;

[0034] Finally, when the drying is finished, turn off the transmission motor 23 and other equipment, open the sealing door 2, and push the placement rack out.
