[0035] Figure 1 It is a three-dimensional diagram of an embodiment of the utility model, referring to Figure 1 One embodiment of the utility model provides a dry granulation device for preparing ceramic particles through a dry powder making process.

[0036] Further, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 The dry granulation device of the utility model comprises a granulation tower 100, the upper side of the granulation tower 100 is a granulation tower inlet, and the lower side of the granulation tower 100 is a granulation tower outlet. The granulation tower 100 has a cavity for granulation.

[0037] Further, refer to Figure 4 A distributor 200 is provided on the upper side of the granulation tower 100, and the distributor 200 includes an outer cylindrical portion 210 and an inner cylindrical portion 220, and an annular cavity is formed between the outer cylindrical portion 210 and the inner cylindrical portion 220. The outer cylindrical portion 210 and the inner cylindrical portion 220 of the distributor 200 are relatively fixed, so the annular cavity does not need to be movable.

[0038] Furthermore, the outer side of the outer cylindrical portion 210 is connected to a high-pressure air intake pipe 230 and a feed fan 231, and a feeder 232 is provided on the high-pressure air intake pipe 230. The high-pressure air intake pipe 230 inputs high-pressure air into the annular cavity to form an annular airflow, and the feeder 232 is responsible for feeding the raw materials into the high-pressure air intake pipe 230. The raw materials enter the annular cavity along the high-pressure air intake pipe 230 and are blown away by the annular airflow in the annular cavity.

[0039] Furthermore, a high-pressure water injection pipe 240 is provided on the upper side of the inner cylindrical portion 220, and the lower side of the high-pressure water injection pipe 240 passes through the inner cylindrical portion 220. An atomizing nozzle 241 is provided on the lower side of the high-pressure water injection pipe 240 as the output side, and the atomizing nozzle 241 sprays water mist in the granulation tower 100 to form an atomizing zone, that is, after the high-pressure water injection pipe 240 is connected to the high-pressure water, water mist is sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle 241. The atomizing zone is at the lower side of the annular cavity.

[0040] Further, refer to Figure 3 A granulation disk 110 and a granulation disk motor 111 are provided at the lower side of the granulation tower 100. The granulation disk motor 111 is used to drive the granulation disk 110 to rotate. Figure 2 , Figure 3 The side wall of the lower side of the granulation tower 100 is provided with a hot air injection port 130 and a granulation tower discharge port 120. The hot air injection port 130 is used to inject hot air into the granulation tower 100. The granulation tower discharge port 120 is used to discharge the granules prepared in the granulation tower 100. The hot air injection port 130 and the granulation tower discharge port 120 are located on the upper side of the granulation disk 110.

[0041] In actual operation, after the feed fan 231 is turned on, a high-pressure airflow is formed to drive the raw material (powder) into the distributor 200. The powder is fully blown away in the stable vortex in the annular cavity in the distributor 200, and then falls under the action of gravity. At the same time, high-pressure water is sprayed in the granulation tower 100 through the atomizing nozzle 241. At the same time, the suspension fan 13 provides an airflow to blow the powder upward, so that the powder is fully combined in the atomization area in the granulation tower 100 to form sufficiently uniform and stable particles.

[0042] The particles fall onto the rotating granulation disk 110 under the action of gravity. The granulation disk 110 cooperates with the hot air from the hot air injection port 130 to continuously integrate the particles on the granulation disk 110 into better solid particles. As the solid particles gradually increase in size and weight, the solid particles are discharged from the granulation tower discharge port 120 under the influence of the centrifugal force of the rotation of the granulation disk 110, completing the granulation work.

[0043] Some embodiments, see Figure 2 The side wall of the granulation tower 100 is provided with an atomization zone airflow injection pipe 140 corresponding to the atomization zone, and the atomization zone airflow injection pipe 140 is connected to an atomization zone air intake fan 141, and the atomization zone airflow injection pipe 140 inputs high-pressure air into the atomization zone to form a swirl in the atomization zone. The swirl in the atomization zone enables the particles to collide and combine more fully with the water mist in the atomization zone, and the more stable swirl can ensure that the formed particles are more uniform.

[0044] In this embodiment, optionally, refer to Figure 3 A guide plate 150 is provided on the inner wall of the granulation tower 100 to guide the airflow entering the granulation tower 100 from the airflow injection pipe 140 in the atomization zone to form a reliable swirl.

[0045] Some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 The side wall of the granulation tower 100 is provided with a turning surface 160, and a dust collecting port 161 is provided on the turning surface 160. The turning surface 160 is designed to ensure that the particles fall under the action of gravity and do not reach the turning surface 160, and only tiny dust that is not combined with water mist will be sucked away by the dust collecting port 161, thereby achieving the dust removal effect of the granulation tower 100.

[0046] In some embodiments, a pressurizing port 170 and a pressurizing fan 171 are provided at the lower side of the granulation tower 100, and the pressurizing port 170 is located at the lower side of the granulation disk 110. The pressurizing fan 171 is used to inject pressurized air into the pressurizing port 170, so that a positive pressure is formed at the lower side of the granulation disk 110 relative to the upper side of the granulation disk 110, so as to prevent the particles from falling from the gap between the granulation disk 110 and the inner wall of the granulation tower 100, causing blockage or waste.

[0047] Some embodiments, see Figure 1The granulation tower discharge port 120 is connected to a fluidized bed 300 for heating and drying the solid particles entering the fluidized bed 300. Figure 5 The lower side of the fluidized bed 300 is connected with a fluidized bed hot air pipe 410 and a hot air furnace 400. The hot air generated by the hot air furnace 400 is injected into the lower side of the fluidized bed 300 through the fluidized bed hot air pipe 410. A dust return pipe 500 is arranged on the upper side of the fluidized bed 300. The dust return pipe 500 is connected to the granulation tower 100. The waste gas and dust generated by heating and drying in the fluidized bed 300 are returned to the granulation tower 100 through the dust return pipe 500 to form a cycle.

[0048] In some embodiments, the fluidized bed 300 generates a mechanical vibration effect through the mechanical vibration device 340, so that the fluidized bed 300 has an effect similar to that of a vibrating screen, thereby ensuring that the particles are fully heated.

[0049] Some embodiments, see Figure 5 , Figure 6 The fluidized bed 300 is provided with a plurality of fluidized bed heating zones 310 from front to back, each fluidized bed heating zone 310 has a fluidized bed hot air duct 410 connected to the hot air furnace 400, and each fluidized bed heating zone 310 is provided with a fluidized bed exhaust pipe 510 connected to the dust return pipe 500 on the upper side, thereby ensuring that the solid particles in the fluidized bed heating zones 310 at various locations in the fluidized bed 300 can be fully and evenly heated.

[0050] Some embodiments, see Figure 7 The dust return pipe 500 includes an outer dust return pipe 520 and an inner dust return pipe 530. An insulation layer 540 is formed between the outer dust return pipe 520 and the inner dust return pipe 530 to prevent the exhaust gas entering the dust return pipe 500 from forming condensed water and affecting the drying work of the fluidized bed 300 on the solid particles.

[0051] Some embodiments, see Figure 6 , Figure 7 The fluidized bed 300 is provided with an air distribution plate 320, which has air distribution holes for guiding the hot air from the fluidized bed hot air pipe 410 into the fluidized bed 300. The air distribution plate 320 includes a first layer of air distribution plates 321 and a second layer of air distribution plates 322 from top to bottom. The aperture and hole spacing of the air distribution holes on the first layer of air distribution plates 321 are larger than the aperture and hole spacing of the air distribution holes on the second layer of air distribution plates 322. The second layer of air distribution plates 322 on the lower layer is used to evenly distribute the hot air in the space between the first layer of air distribution plates 321 and the second layer of air distribution plates 322, and then the first layer of air distribution plates 321 on the upper layer forms a strong airflow to disperse the solid particles, thereby ensuring that the solid particles are fully dried.

[0052] Some embodiments, see Figure 6The fluidized bed 300 is built with a fluidized bed screen 330. The solid granular material is on the fluidized bed screen 330. With the high-pressure hot air passing through the fluidized bed screen 330, the solid granular material can be dried more efficiently.
