Specifically, by starting the air blower 19, wind enters the heating box 21, and the wind is heated by the plurality of heating pipes 22 evenly fixed in the inner cavity of the heating box 21. The heated hot air is passed into the hot air main pipe 23, and then into the plurality of hot air branch pipes 24 evenly connected on the top of the hot air main pipe 23, and finally the hot air is blown out through the air outlet 25 connected to the other end of the hot air branch pipe 24 to dry the spirulina.

[0029] Furthermore, a heating plate 26 is provided above the rotating box 10, and one end of the heating plate 26 is fixed to the inner wall of the device body 1.
