[0033] As described in the background art, a drying device is a mechanical device that dries the moisture or other liquids on the surface of an object through certain technical means. The drying techniques mainly include ultraviolet drying, infrared drying, electromagnetic drying, and hot air drying. For hot air drying, the prior art usually directly heats the air with an electric heater, resulting in problems such as high energy consumption and low utilization rate of the drying device. Moreover, the dryer and the drying box of this drying device are an integral fixed structure, often limited to a certain location and inconvenient to be transported according to the needs of customers.

[0034] Based on this, please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides a drying device 100, which can effectively improve the above-mentioned technical problems, that is, it can save energy, improve energy utilization rate, and can be conveniently transferred and transported. The drying device 100 will be described in detail below.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the drying device 100 provided in this embodiment. Combining Figure 1 , the drying device 100 includes an air energy dryer 10, a flexible connection structure 20, a drying box 30, and a fan 40. The two ends of the flexible connection structure 20 are respectively detachably connected to the air energy dryer 10 and the drying box 30, and are simultaneously communicated with the air energy dryer 10 and the drying box 30; the fan 40 is arranged in the flexible connection structure 20 to send the heated air in the air energy dryer 10 into the drying box 30 through the flexible connection structure 20.

[0036] It should be noted that the air energy dryer 10 can use the air in the natural environment as a heat source or a cold source. After compression and circulation, the temperature of the air is increased, and then it is sent into the drying box 30 through the fan 40 and the flexible connection structure 20 to dry the materials; it is easy to understand that by extracting renewable heat energy from the natural environment, compared with the electric heating method, it can save energy and improve energy utilization rate. Moreover, by setting the flexible connection structure 20 and using the detachable connection method, when transferring the location of the drying device 100, directly disassemble the flexible connection structure 20, and then pack or load the air energy dryer 10, the flexible connection structure 20, and the drying box 30 separately for transportation, so as to facilitate the overall transfer and transportation of the drying device 100 and meet the needs of users for drying in different sites.

[0037] Specifically, the air energy dryer 10 includes a body 11 and a compressor 12, a condenser 13, an electronic expansion valve 14 and an evaporator 15 arranged on the body 11, and the compressor 12, the condenser 13, the electronic expansion valve 14 and the evaporator 15 are connected end to end in sequence; the soft connection structure 20 is detachably connected to the body 11 and is connected to the body 11, and the condenser 13 and the fan 40 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0038] In the evaporator 15, the refrigerant exchanges heat with the air, absorbs the heat energy in the air and undergoes a phase change to become a gaseous refrigerant; the compressor 12 can compress the low-pressure vapor refrigerant into a high-temperature and high-pressure vapor refrigerant; the high-temperature and high-pressure vapor refrigerant is liquefied in the condenser 13 and releases heat; the electronic expansion valve 14 controls the flow of the refrigerant, so that it changes from a high-pressure liquid state to a low-pressure liquid state, and then prepares to enter the evaporator 15 for the next cycle. Among them, the hot air heated by the condenser 13 is sent to the drying box 30 from the soft connection structure 20 through the action of the fan 40, so as to achieve drying of the materials in the drying box 30.

[0039] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the air energy dryer 10 is specifically a variable frequency dryer, and correspondingly, the compressor 12 is a variable frequency compressor 12, which can control the input voltage frequency according to the change of load, thereby adjusting the speed of the compressor 12, so that the compressor 12 can operate efficiently under different loads, thereby further improving the energy saving effect, and can also reduce equipment wear and reduce noise during operation.

[0040] Please continue to combine Figure 1 The soft connection structure 20 includes a first fixing member 21, a soft connection tube 22 and a second fixing member 23 connected in sequence. The first fixing member 21 is detachably connected to the machine body 11, and the second fixing member 23 is detachably connected to the drying box 30; one end of the soft connection tube 22 is connected to the machine body 11 through the first fixing member 21, and the other end of the soft connection tube 22 is connected to the drying box 30 through the second fixing member 23; the fan 40 is arranged in the first fixing member 21.

[0041] It should be noted that the first fixing member 21 and the second fixing member 23 are both sheet metal structures. By arranging sheet metal structures at both ends of the flexible connecting pipe 22, it is more convenient to install and disassemble them with the machine body 11 and the drying box 30, thereby improving the assembly and disassembly efficiency.

[0042] Further, the body 11 has a first air inlet 111 and a first air outlet 112. The first air inlet 111 is located on one side of the body 11 and is disposed near the top of the body 11. The first air outlet 112 is located on the opposite side of the body 11 and is disposed near the bottom of the body 11. The evaporator 15 is located at the top of the body 11 and is disposed near the first air inlet 111. The condenser 13 is located at the bottom of the body 11 and is disposed near the first air outlet 112. The first fixing member 21 is disposed at the first air outlet 112, and the flexible connection pipe 22 is communicated with the first air outlet 112 through the first fixing member 21.

[0043] As Figure 1 shown, the relative positions of the first air inlet 111 and the first air outlet 112 can be understood as being located at the diagonal corners of the body 11 respectively. That is, air enters from the upper diagonal of the body 11, and after being heated, the hot air enters the flexible connection structure 20 from the lower diagonal of the body 11. Correspondingly, the evaporator 15 is located at the first air inlet 111, which can conveniently absorb the heat in the air, while the condenser 13 is located at the first air outlet 112, which can conveniently heat the air. Through such a setting, it is possible to further facilitate the absorption and release of heat of the air and improve the overall working efficiency of the air energy dryer 10.

[0044] In order to conveniently adjust the frequency of the variable frequency compressor 12, the drying device 100 further includes a temperature sensing probe (not shown in the figure). The temperature sensing probe is disposed in the flexible connection structure 20 and is disposed near the blower 40. Specifically, in this embodiment, the temperature sensing probe is disposed in the first fixing member 21 and is located at the first air outlet 112. By providing the temperature sensing probe, the frequency of the variable frequency compressor 12 can be adjusted according to the temperature level to achieve the purpose of energy saving of the drying device 100.

[0045] And in order to conveniently replace or repair the temperature sensing probe, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 which is Figure 1 the partial enlarged view of A in Figure 1 and Figure 2 . The drying device 100 further includes a mounting box 50. The mounting box 50 is detachably disposed on the flexible connection structure 20, and the temperature sensing probe is disposed in the mounting box 50. Specifically, in this embodiment, the mounting box 50 is disposed on the first fixing member 21.

[0046] It is easy to understand that when it is necessary to replace or repair the temperature sensing probe, only the mounting box 50 needs to be pulled out from the first fixing member 21, and the operation is convenient and fast.

[0047] In order to further improve the drying effect of the materials, in this embodiment, the drying box 30 has a second air inlet 31 and a second air outlet 32. The second air inlet 31 is located on one side of the drying box 30 close to the bottom, and the second air outlet 32 is located at the top of the drying box 30; the second fixing member 23 is arranged at the second air inlet 31, and the flexible connection pipe 22 is communicated with the second air inlet 31 through the second fixing member 23.

[0048] As Figure 1 shown, it is easy to understand that the hot air passes through the flexible connection structure 20 and enters from the side of the drying box 30 close to the bottom. Since the hot air flows upward, by entering from the bottom, the drying area and coverage effect of the materials can be increased; after drying the materials, it then flows out from the second air outlet 32 at the top, which can facilitate the discharge of air.

[0049] And in order to facilitate the overall movement of the air energy dryer 10, in this embodiment, the air energy dryer 10 further includes casters 16, and the casters 16 are arranged at the bottom of the machine body 11.

[0050] It should be noted that in order to further facilitate disassembly and transfer for loading onto the vehicle, the drying box 30 can be set as a detachable sheet metal box body. In this way, when it needs to be transferred to other working locations, the drying box 30 can be directly disassembled into sheet metal parts, which can be more conveniently stacked and placed on the transport vehicle, saving transportation space and also reducing the transportation cost for users; in addition, when arriving at the drying location, it is also convenient to directly assemble various sheet metal parts to form a box body structure.

[0051] In summary, the embodiment of the present utility model provides a drying device 100. The drying device 100 includes an air energy dryer 10, a flexible connection structure 20, a drying box 30, and a blower 40. The two ends of the flexible connection structure 20 are respectively detachably connected to the air energy dryer 10 and the drying box 30, and are simultaneously communicated with the air energy dryer 10 and the drying box 30; the blower 40 is arranged in the flexible connection structure 20 to be used for sending the heated air in the air energy dryer 10 into the drying box 30 through the flexible connection structure 20. The air energy dryer 10 can use the air in the natural environment as a heat source or a cold source, raise the temperature of the air after compression and circulation processes, and then send it into the drying box 30 through the blower 40 and the flexible connection structure 20 to dry the materials; it is easy to understand that by extracting renewable heat energy from the natural environment in this way, compared with the electric heating method, it can save energy and improve energy utilization efficiency. And by setting the flexible connection structure 20 and using the detachable connection method, when transferring the drying device 100 to another location, directly disassemble the flexible connection structure 20, and then pack or load the air energy dryer 10, the flexible connection structure 20, and the drying box 30 separately for transportation, so as to facilitate the transfer and transportation of the drying device 100 and meet the needs of users for drying in different sites.

[0052] The above are only specific embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
