AI Technical Summary
The existing plastic pellet hot air drying devices have low drying efficiency and poor continuity. The hot air consumes a lot of heat energy when passing through the multi-layer screen, resulting in low drying efficiency. When the pellets accumulate to a certain amount, the penetration of the hot air is limited and the machine needs to be shut down and unloaded.
An internal and external convection drying device is designed. By setting an air convection tank and a spiral feed shaft in the drying section, and using the convection method of the internal and external air ducts, the hot air can synchronize the plastic pellets from two directions, and at the same time, the spiral stirrer is introduced to achieve continuous feed and drying.
It improves the drying efficiency of plastic pellets and enhances the continuity of the device. It can continuously dry and discharge materials without shutting down, significantly improving production efficiency.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of plastic drying equipment, in particular to a hot air drying device for plastic pellets. Background Technique
[0002] At present, hot air drying is mostly used for drying plastic pellets. For example, a hot air drying device for plastic pellets disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN207256617U and a negative pressure hot air drying device disclosed in CN209649240U both adopt the method of hot air drying.
[0003] There is generally a problem with the above-mentioned devices. First, the hot air outlet is located at the bottom of the device, and multiple layers of sieve meshes are arranged above. Therefore, when the hot air passes through the sieve meshes layer by layer, its heat energy is gradually consumed, so its drying efficiency is relatively low. Second, the continuity of the above-mentioned devices is poor. Once the pellets on the sieve mesh reach a certain amount, the penetration of the hot air is greatly limited at this time, and it is necessary to stop the machine for discharging.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a drying device with high drying efficiency and strong continuity. Content of the Utility Model

Specific embodiments
[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
[0021] Such as Figure 1As shown in the figure, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a hot air drying device for plastic pellets, which includes a housing 1 and a drying cylinder 2. The drying cylinder 2 is inclined to facilitate the feeding. The drying cylinder 2 includes a feeding section 21, a drying section 22, and a discharging section 23. Among them, the drying section 22 is located inside the housing 1. An air convection groove 221 is provided in the middle of the drying section 22, and the air convection groove 221 is completely located inside the housing 1 to avoid heat loss to the air. The feeding section 21 and the discharging section 23 are both exposed outside the housing 1.
[0022] A feeding port 3 is provided on the feeding section 21, a discharging port 4 is provided on the discharging section 23, and the drying section 22 is movably connected to both the feeding section 21 and the discharging section 23.
[0023] A gear ring 5 is installed on the drying section 22. A rotating motor 6 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1. A gear 7 is installed at the output end of the rotating motor 6. The gear 7 meshes with the gear ring 5. When the rotating motor 6 is turned on, the gear 7 can be driven to rotate, and then the drying section 22 can be driven to rotate independently. The purpose of such a design is that on the one hand, it can avoid the problem of thermal deformation caused by one side of the drying section 22 being in contact with the hot air flow for a long time, and on the other hand, it can make the pellets contact the hot air flow more evenly and fully.
[0024] A rotatable spiral feeding shaft 8 is installed inside the drying cylinder 2. Vent holes 10 are provided on the surface of the spiral feeding shaft 8. The spiral feeding shaft 8 is driven by an external driving motor 9.
[0025] It also includes a hot air blower 11. The air outlet of the hot air blower 11 is respectively connected with an external air duct 12 and an internal air duct 13. The external air duct 12 is located below the drying section 22, and an air outlet nozzle 14 is provided on the external air duct 12. The internal air duct 13 extends into the inside of the spiral feeding shaft 8. It should be noted that the internal air duct 13 does not rotate with the spiral feeding shaft 8. Exhaust ports 15 are provided on the internal air duct 13.
[0026] Meanwhile, the content not described in detail in this specification belongs to the prior art well-known to those skilled in the art.
[0027] During use, plastic pellets are poured into the drying cylinder 2 through the feeding port 3, and then the hot air blower 11 is turned on to send hot air into the external air duct 12 and the internal air duct 13 respectively. The external air duct 12 conveys hot air flow into the drying section 22 from the outside through the air outlet nozzle 14. The hot air flow can pass through the air convection groove 221 and directly enter the drying section 22 to contact the pellets. The internal air duct 13 sends out hot air flow through the exhaust ports 15 on it. The hot air flow is dissipated through the vent holes 10 on the spiral feeding shaft 8 and contacts the pellets from the inside, and convects with the hot air flow blown out by the external air duct 12, so as to dry the pellets evenly.
[0028] By starting the drive motor 9, the spiral feeding shaft 8 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the granular material to move in the drying cylinder 2. When the granular material is dried, it can be discharged through the discharge port 4.
[0029] In summary, for this hot air drying device for plastic granular materials, by setting up an internal and external convection drying mechanism, hot air dries the plastic granular materials synchronously from two directions, thus greatly improving the drying efficiency. Further, in order to make the device more continuous, we organically combine the spiral stirrer with the drying mechanism, that is, introduce the spiral stirrer to achieve the purpose of continuous feeding. At the same time, the granular materials are dried by the spiral stirrer, and the materials can be discharged while drying without stopping the machine, with strong continuity.
