[0049] Research has found that traditional rotary vacuum dryers are fed by people, and the feed port needs to be opened and the material needs to be poured into the barrel manually. This feeding method cannot achieve fully automatic and unmanned operation.

[0050] Based on the above research, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a vacuum feeding device and a rotary vacuum dryer. By inserting the feed pipe into the inside of the hollow tube and using a vacuum pump, the hollow tube and the silo are evacuated to generate negative pressure. At this time, the negative pressure generated in the feed pipe will suck the powder connected to the feed pipe into the silo, eliminating the need to manually open the feed port of the silo for feeding, thus saving manpower.

[0051] The defects in the above solutions are the results obtained by the utility model inventor after practice and careful research. Therefore, the discovery process of the above problems and the solutions proposed by the present disclosure in this article should be the contributions made by the utility model inventor to the present disclosure during the disclosure process.

[0052] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings.

[0053] The following embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0054] In some embodiments, as Figure 1As shown, before starting the feed, the feed end of the feed pipe 8 is connected to the external powder source, and the feed valve 5 is opened synchronously, the vacuum pump 1 is started, and the air in the silo 10 is extracted through the suction pipe 7 and the hollow tube 9, so that the air flows along the direction shown by F2, forming a negative pressure environment. At this time, the powder is sucked into the silo 10 through the feed pipe 8 under the action of the negative pressure, and the powder flows along the direction shown by F1. When the hollow tube 9 extracts the air inside the silo 1, the filter element 6 is used to prevent the powder from being extracted by the vacuum pump, while ensuring air circulation. In the rotary vacuum dryer, the silo (10) can rotate around the bearing seat 2 to cooperate with the drying operation. The bearing seat 2 and the flange 3 provide support and sealing, and the sealing joint 4 ensures the static and sealing of the hollow tube 9.

[0055] Through the above structure, automatic suction of powder is achieved, and there is no need for manual feeding, which reduces manpower loss. Automatic feeding speeds up the feeding speed and improves production efficiency. Since the feeding process is carried out in a closed environment, dust pollution is reduced. Through flanges, sealing joints and other components, the sealing performance of the device is enhanced, ensuring the stability of the negative pressure environment.

[0056] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0057] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, terms such as "first", "second" and other numerical terms do not imply an order or sequence when used herein unless expressly indicated above. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the example embodiments, the first element, component, region, layer or section discussed above may be referred to as a second element, component, region, layer or section.

[0058] Spatially relative terms, such as "inside," "outside," "below," "beneath," "down," "above," "on," etc., may be used herein to describe the relationship of one element or feature to another element or feature as illustrated in the figures. In addition to the orientations depicted in the figures, spatially relative terms may be intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation. For example, if the device in the figures is flipped, an element described as being "below" or "below" other elements or features will be oriented to be "above" the other elements or features. Thus, the example term "below" may encompass both above and below orientations. The device may be oriented otherwise (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptors used herein are interpreted accordingly.

[0059] In the above discussion, unless otherwise indicated, the terms "about," "approximately," "substantially," etc., when used to describe a numerical value, mean a variation of + / - 10% of the value.

[0060] Based on the above-mentioned ideal embodiment of the present invention, and in accordance with the above description, relevant personnel can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical scope of the present invention. The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the content of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
