[0018] The following further describes the present invention with reference to the drawings: Embodiment

[0019] Refer to Figure 1 , a powder humidifying device, including a mixing tank 1, an atomizer 9 and a water circulation temperature control system 15, wherein: a driving mechanism is fixedly installed on the mixing tank 1, and a dispersing fin 8 is fixedly installed at the output end of the driving mechanism. The dispersing fin 8 is rotatably installed above the inside of the mixing tank 1 so as to drive the dispersing fin 8 to rotate inside the mixing tank 1 through the driving mechanism. When the powder enters, it contacts the powder, thereby dispersing the powder; the mixing tank 1 is fixedly communicated with the atomizer 9 through an atomization pipeline so as to convey atomized water vapor for increasing the humidity of the powder into the mixing tank 1, and the mixing tank 1 is fixedly communicated with the water circulation temperature control system 15 through a circulation pipeline so as to heat the mixing tank 1.

[0020] It should be noted that the dispersing fin 8 is made of a dispersing fin made of a punched plate or a screen connected by dense rods.

[0021] The driving mechanism includes a motor 4 and a rotating shaft 7, and the motor 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the top end of the mixing tank 1 through a frame 5. The output end of the motor 4 is in transmission connection with the rotating shaft 7 through a synchronous belt 6; the rotating shaft 7 is rotatably installed at the center of the top of the mixing tank 1, and one end of the rotating shaft 7 is inside the mixing tank 1, and the other end of the rotating shaft 7 is outside the top of the mixing tank 1; the dispersing fin 8 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 7 inside the mixing tank 1; so that the motor 4 drives the dispersing fin 8 to rotate inside the mixing tank 1 through the synchronous belt 6 and the rotating shaft 7.

[0022] The atomization pipeline includes a main mist flow pipe 12 and mist diversion pipes 13. One end of the main mist flow pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the outlet of the atomizer 9, and a plurality of mist diversion pipes 13 are fixedly installed at the other end of the main mist flow pipe 12 in a uniform distribution; the mist diversion pipes 13 are communicated with the main mist flow pipe 12; the other end of the mist diversion pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the mixing tank 1 so that the atomized water vapor can enter the mixing tank 1.

[0023] A blower 10 for blowing the atomized water vapor towards the main mist flow pipe 12 is fixedly installed on the atomization water tank of the atomizer 9. Under the action of the wind force of the blower 10, the mist can quickly fill the mixing tank and combine with the scattered powder. And a liquid level gauge 11 is fixedly installed on the water tank of the atomizer 9 to monitor the change of the water level in the water tank.

[0024] The mist uses 0 - 10um ultra - fine water mist.

[0025] The atomizer 9 keeps the air in the water tank at a humidity level above 85RH.

[0026] The outside of the mixing tank 1 adopts a double - layer structure, and the middle interlayer is fixedly connected to the water circulation temperature control system 15 through a circulation pipeline so that the water in the water circulation temperature control system 15 can enter the middle interlayer of the mixing tank 1 to heat the mixing tank 1. And a plurality of mist outlets 14 are evenly arranged on the mixing tank 1. The plurality of mist outlets 14 are arranged in a stepped and staggered manner and evenly distributed on each cross - section of the mixing tank. The mist outlet 14 is communicated with the corresponding mist diversion pipe 13 so that the atomized water vapor can enter different positions in the mixing tank 1 evenly, so that the atomized water vapor can fully and evenly contact the powder in the mixing tank 1.

[0027] The mist outlet 14 has a specified rotation direction to enable the mist to be added into the mixing tank fully and evenly.

[0028] One side of the top of the mixing tank 1 is fixedly installed with a feed pipe 2, and a discharge valve 3 is fixedly installed at the outlet of the bottom of the mixing tank 1; the bottom end of the feed pipe 2 is inside the mixing tank 1, and the bottom end of the feed pipe 2 is above the dispersing fins 8 so that after the powdery material enters the mixing tank 1 through the feed pipe 2, it will fall on the running route of the dispersing fins 8 and thus contact the dispersing fins 8 and be dispersed by the dispersing fins 8; a tank rack 16 is fixedly installed on the mixing tank 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, during use, after the powdery material arrives, it enters the mixing tank 1 through the feed pipe 2. The motor 4 drives the dispersing fins 8 to rotate inside the mixing tank 1 through the synchronous belt 6 and the rotating shaft 7, and the powdery material is dispersed and evenly falls into the mixing tank 1.

[0030] During the blanking process, the atomizing water tank produces water mist through the atomizer 9, and the blower 10 blows the water mist into the mixing tank 1 through the mist pipeline. Since the mist uses ultra-fine water mist of 0-10um, it is easy to adsorb on the flour particles. Under the action of wind, the mist quickly fills the mixing tank 1 and combines with the scattered powder materials.

[0031] Meanwhile, during the operation, the water circulation temperature control system 15 can transport the water with temperature to the middle interlayer of the mixing tank 1, thereby heating the mixing tank 1, enabling the inner tank wall of the mixing tank to be maintained at the specified temperature, and effectively avoiding dew condensation on the tank wall and adhesion of powder materials.

[0032] After the water mist and the powder materials are combined, they are quickly absorbed to complete the humidification operation. The humidified powder materials enter the next process through the discharge port at the lower end of the mixing tank 1. By controlling the air volume of the blown water mist according to the incoming material flow, the humidification degree can be effectively controlled. To accurately control the humidification degree, a temperature and humidity sensor can be added to the mixing tank 1 to make the humidification operation proceed under a stable humidity.

[0033] Any technical solution that uses the technical solution of the present invention or is designed by those skilled in the art under the inspiration of the technical solution of the present invention and achieves the above technical effects shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
