Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of powder drying processing equipment, in particular to a uniform conveying mechanism for drying stainless steel powder. Background Art

[0002] Fluidized bed drying utilizes fluidization technology for drying, and is widely used in the chemical, food, pharmaceutical, and mining industries. During the fluidized bed drying process, wet materials are processed into powder or granules. Heat is then transferred to the wet materials through a hot air flow, causing surface moisture to evaporate, thereby removing moisture. Fluidization suspends solid particles in a rising gas, causing them to exhibit fluid-like properties. This technology is suitable for heat-sensitive materials, granular materials, and powdered materials, such as those used in drying foods, pharmaceuticals, and chemical products.

[0003] An existing Chinese patent, publication number CN221253036U, discloses a uniform fluidized powder feeding device. In this solution, powder enters a fluidized powder hopper from a silo through a gate valve. Airflow is accelerated through the fine pores of the fluidizing plate, fluidizing the powder. The uniformity of the powder is controlled by adjusting the air intake. A single air intake adjustment may not be suitable for all powder types, and air intake does not completely determine airflow velocity. The airflow velocity must be sufficient to maintain the fluidization of the powder, but not too high to avoid problems such as uneven powder suspension, wear, or high-density accumulation.

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned related technologies, a uniform conveying mechanism for drying stainless steel powder is now provided to eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, the density of the circular holes on the primary fluidizing plate, the secondary fluidizing plate and the tertiary fluidizing plate increases step by step.

[0011] Preferably, the end of the stripping plate in contact with the fluidizing plate is made of elastic material.

[0017] 1. This utility model proposes a stainless steel powder drying uniform conveying mechanism. Through a specific fluidizing barrel structure and fluidizing homogenizing component design, it achieves efficient fluidization and uniform conveying of powders. This effectively avoids uneven suspension of powder during conveying, ensures sufficient contact between powder and hot air, and improves drying efficiency and product quality. Furthermore, the multi-stage fluidizing plate and circular hole design ensure that powders of varying particle sizes can achieve the appropriate fluidization effect. The circular hole diameter gradually decreases from the center outward, while the circular hole density increases step by step. This helps to improve the fluidization uniformity of the powder, reduce friction and wear between the powders, and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0018] 2. This utility model proposes a uniform conveying mechanism for stainless steel powder drying.
