Ventilation grooves 13 located on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt 15 are formed in the side walls of the two support plates 2, and heat dissipation fans 14 are installed inside the ventilation grooves 13.

[0026] In this embodiment: One end of the polyimide film is placed between the two traction rollers 4. The two traction rollers 4 drive the polyimide film to move backward. The conveying rollers 7 support the polyimide film. The lower drying plate 8 and the upper drying plate 9 are heated simultaneously to make the polyimide film receive heat more evenly, so that the moisture on the polyimide film evaporates quickly. The steam processor 11 is started, and the water vapor enters the steam processor 11 through the flow guide cover 12, so that the polyimide film is dried more thoroughly;

[0027] The conveyor belt 15 drives the polyimide film to move backward. The support strips 16 create gaps below the polyimide film. The rotation of the two heat dissipation fans 14 drives the air flow between the two ventilation grooves 13, so that the gas flow rate above and below the polyimide film is increased, further enabling the moisture on the surface of the polyimide film to evaporate, and at the same time taking away the heat of the polyimide film, so that the dried polyimide film is quickly cooled to prevent the polyimide film from deforming.

The two gears 5 are meshed with each other. A driving motor 6 is installed on the side wall of the support plate 2 through a bracket, and the output end of the driving motor 6 is fixedly connected with the gear 5.

[0029] In this embodiment: The output end of the driving motor 6 drives the gear 5 to rotate. Since the two gears 5 are meshed with each other, the two rotating shafts 3 drive the traction rollers 4 to rotate relatively, which is convenient for pulling the polyimide film.

[0030] As a technical optimization scheme of the present utility model, both the lower drying plate 8 and the upper drying plate 9 are composed of a plurality of equidistantly distributed heating rods.

[0031] In this embodiment: The lower drying plate 8 and the upper drying plate 9 are composed of a plurality of heating rods evenly distributed at equal intervals, so that the heating is more uniform, and at the same time, water vapor can enter the diversion cover 12 from the gap.

[0032] As a technical optimization scheme of the present utility model, the diversion cover 12 is arranged directly above the upper drying plate 9, and the cross-sectional area of the diversion cover 12 is the same as the size of the upper drying plate 9.

[0033] In this embodiment: Through the diversion cover 12, water vapor can fully enter the interior of the vapor processor 11.

[0035] In this embodiment: Wrapping the outer wall of the support bar 16 with an anti-slip rubber sheet can increase the friction force of the support bar 16 on the polyimide film, so as to better drive the polyimide film to move.

[0036] As a technical optimization scheme of the present utility model, a control switch 17 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the support plate 2.

[0037] In this embodiment: The drive motor 6, the lower drying plate 8, the upper drying plate 9, the vapor processor 11, the cooling fan 14 and the conveyor belt 15 are all electrically connected to the control switch 17.

[0038] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model: When the present utility model is used, first place one end of the polyimide film to be dried between the two traction rollers 4. The output end of the drive motor 6 drives the gear 5 to rotate. Since the two gears 5 are meshed with each other, the two rotating shafts 3 can drive the traction rollers 4 to rotate relatively, and the polyimide film is driven to move backward by the two traction rollers 4;

[0039] Then, the polyimide film is supported by the conveying roller 7, and the polyimide film is heated more evenly by heating the lower drying plate 8 and the upper drying plate 9 at the same time, so that the moisture on the polyimide film evaporates quickly. Start the vapor processor 11, so that the water vapor enters the vapor processor 11 through the diversion cover 12, so that the polyimide film is dried more thoroughly;

[0040] Next, the polyimide film is driven to move backward by the conveyor belt 15. The support bar 16 makes a gap under the polyimide film. The rotation of the two cooling fans 14 drives the air flow between the two ventilation grooves 13, so that the gas flow rate above and below the polyimide film is accelerated, further evaporating the moisture on the surface of the polyimide film, and at the same time taking away the heat of the polyimide film, so that the dried polyimide film is quickly cooled to prevent the polyimide film from deforming.
