For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0024] During the heating and stirring process of the existing heating equipment, due to a certain gap between the stirring blade and the inner wall of the heating equipment, some of the materials adhering to the inner wall of the heating equipment cannot be stirred by the stirring blade, resulting in uneven heating, and even problems such as overheating and oxidation during the heating process, which greatly affects the performance of the materials.

[0025] For this reason, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , this application provides a drying device, including a drying chamber body 1, a motor 2, a collection tank 3, a vacuum pump 4, and a cooling device 5.

[0026] A heating coil 6 surrounds the lower part of the outer side surface of the drying bin body 1, which matches the concentrated area of ​​the material to avoid heat waste; a spherical drying chamber 101 is constructed in the drying bin body 1. Compared with square and cylindrical chambers, there is no corner, and the material is not easy to accumulate. A feeding pipe 102 connected to the drying chamber 101 is provided on the top of the drying bin body 1, and the feeding pipe 102 is used to add the material to be dried into the drying bin; a rotating shaft 7 is rotatably installed in the drying chamber 101, and the rotating shaft 7 is driven to rotate by the motor 2 arranged on the drying bin body 1, that is, the upper end of the rotating shaft 7 extends upward and is connected to the output shaft of the motor 2, so that the motor 2 can drive the rotating shaft 7 to rotate when it rotates, and an arc-shaped stirring frame 8 is provided at the lower end of the rotating shaft 7, and the center of the stirring frame 8 coincides with the center of the sphere of the drying chamber 101.

[0027] The stirring frame 8 is provided with stirring blades 9, which are arranged at intervals along the stirring frame 8 to expand the stirring area of ​​the stirring blades 9. The outer edge of the stirring blades 9 is in contact with the side wall of the drying chamber 101 to reduce the gap between the stirring blades 9 and the inner wall of the drying chamber 101, so as to scrape off the attached materials to the greatest extent, thereby achieving the purpose of sufficient stirring and improving the uniformity of heating of the materials.

[0028] Furthermore, the stirring frame 8 is provided with a limit rod 13 against one side of the stirring blade 9, so that the stirring blade 9 can only rotate in the rotation direction of the stirring frame 8 and tilt in the rotation direction of the stirring frame 8. When the material enters between the stirring blade 9 and the inner wall of the drying chamber 101 during stirring, the stirring blade 9 will be lifted forward in the rotation direction, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of the stirring blade 9 crushing the material. At the same time, a chamfer is provided on the outer edge of the stirring blade 9 to increase the ability of the material to push the stirring blade 9 away.

[0029] The top of the collecting tank 3 is connected to the top of the drying chamber 101 through a collecting pipe, and a cooling device 5 is provided on the collecting pipe. The cooling device 5 adopts a water-cooled cooler, a plate heat exchanger, etc. The top of the collecting tank 3 is connected to the vacuum pump 4 through a pipeline.

[0030] The application process:

[0031] The material to be dried is introduced through the feed pipe 102, and then the cooling device 5, the vacuum pump 4, the motor 2, and the heating coil 6 are turned on in sequence. The heating coil 6 operates to increase the temperature inside the drying chamber 101. The motor 2 is energized to rotate, drives the stirring frame 8 to rotate through the rotating shaft 7, and then drives the stirring blades 9 to rotate, stirring the material inside the drying chamber 101, making the material heat more evenly. During the stirring process, when encountering the material embedded between the stirring blade 9 and the inner wall of the drying chamber 101, the stirring blade 9 rotates a certain angle forward in the rotating direction, thus preventing the material particles from being crushed. The solvent on the material is heated and evaporated, and is sucked away under the action of the vacuum pump 4. When passing through the cooling device 5, the evaporated solvent gas is condensed and then flows into the collection tank 3 for reuse.

[0032] Optionally, in some specific embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the projections of the outer edges of all the stirring blades 9 along the radial direction of the stirring frame 8 form a complete line. As shown in the figure, there are 5 stirring blades 9, and the stirring blades 9 on the left and right sides are arranged in a staggered manner, so that the areas swept by the stirring blades 9 on the left and right sides are complementary, that is, the projections of the outer edges of the stirring blades 9 along the radial direction of the stirring frame 8 form a complete line, so that all the materials in the drying chamber 101 can be swept up, effectively ensuring the uniform heating of the materials. It can be imagined that when there are 5 stirring blades 9, the rotation axis of the lower stirring blade 9 is the same as the rotation axis of the rotating shaft 7. Therefore, this stirring blade 9 is fixedly connected to the stirring frame 8.

[0033] Optionally, in some specific embodiments, as Figure 1 shown, a filter cylinder 10 connected to the collection pipe is provided inside the drying chamber 101, and a filter bag 11 is sleeved at the lower end of the filter cylinder 10, effectively filtering the dust generated during the stirring of the material and ensuring the cleanliness of the recovered solvent.

[0034] Optionally, in some specific embodiments, a valve 12 is provided on the feed pipe 102. After the material is introduced, the feed pipe 102 is closed through the valve 12, so that only the solvent vapor is sucked away by the vacuum pump 4, and the solvent is easier to condense.

[0035] The embodiments of the present application have been described above. The above description is exemplary and not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations are obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art in the technical field without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The selection of the terms used herein is intended to best explain the principles of the embodiments, the practical application or the improvement of the technology in the market, or to enable other ordinary technicians in the technical field to understand the disclosed embodiments.
