Therefore, the features limited by "first", "second" and the like can explicitly or implicitly include one or more features. In the description of the utility model, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more.

[0028] In the description of the utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connection", "connection" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or it can be electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; it can be the communication inside two elements. For ordinary skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the utility model can be understood through specific circumstances.

[0029] The utility model provides a kind of airflow dryer, including machine table, the cavity 10 is provided on the machine table, the shaft 11 for driving the comminuting cutterhead 12 rotation is provided in the cavity 10, the upper surface of the comminuting cutterhead 12 is provided with multiple comminuting blades 121 along its periphery, motor 20 for driving the shaft 11 rotation is further provided on the machine table, the shaft 11 includes shaft center 111 and the shaft sleeve being arranged outside the shaft center, multiple bearing assemblies 114 are further provided between the shaft center 111 and the shaft sleeve, the upper end of the shaft sleeve is provided with oil inlet pipe 115, lower end is provided with oil return pipe 116;

[0030] The cavity 10 below the comminuting cutterhead 12 is provided with air inlet 14.

[0031] The cavity 10 above the comminuting cutterhead 12 is provided with feed inlet 13, and the top of the cavity 10 is provided with material collecting port 16. The material to be comminuted and dried is sent into the cavity 10 through the feed inlet 13, and the comminution of the material is realized by the high-speed rotating comminuting cutterhead 12 and comminuting blades 121, and the comminuted material in the cavity 10 is dried by the continuous input of hot air from the air inlet 14.

[0032] During the comminution process, due to the high-speed rotation of the comminuting cutterhead 12 and comminuting blades 121, in cooperation with the hot air flowing from below the comminuting cutterhead 12 and the airflow formed by the material flowing out from the top material collecting port, it is ensured that the material will not fall into the cavity below the comminuting cutterhead 12, and at the same time, the smaller comminuted material will flow out from the material collecting port 16 under the action of the airflow formed by the hot air, and the larger material will continue to be comminuted by the comminuting blades 121 due to its larger gravity.

[0033] In this embodiment, the upper end of the cavity 10 is provided with a grading wheel assembly (not shown in the figure), and the discharge port of the grading wheel assembly is in communication with the material collecting port 16. The comminuted material is sent into the grading wheel assembly under the action of the airflow formed by the hot air, and under the action of the grading wheel assembly, the particles meeting the particle size requirement (smaller particles) are screened out and flow out from the material collecting port 16, and the larger particles will be sent back to the comminuting cutterhead 12 for comminution due to their larger centrifugal force. The top of the shaft center 111 is provided with a conical guide structure 15. The material entering from the feed inlet can be quickly dispersed to the edge of the comminuting cutterhead 12 for comminution under the action of the conical guide structure 15.

[0034] In this embodiment, the feed inlet 13 can be provided with a screw feeding mode for uniform feeding.

[0035] During the process of continuously inputting hot air into the cavity 10, the cooling oil continuously flows into the inside of the rotating shaft from the oil inlet pipe 115 and then flows out from the oil return pipe 116, continuously taking away the heat in the rotating shaft, so that the temperature of each component in the rotating shaft is reduced, and the service life of the components is ensured.

[0036] In the embodiment, the shaft sleeve comprises a sealingly connected upper shaft sleeve 112 and a lower shaft sleeve 113, two bearing assemblies are arranged between the shaft center 111 and the upper shaft sleeve 112, one bearing assembly is arranged between the shaft center 111 and the lower shaft sleeve 113, the oil inlet pipe 115 is arranged at a position between the two bearing assemblies in the upper shaft sleeve 112, and the bottom of the lower shaft sleeve 113 is provided with an upwardly folded first bending part 1131 and forms an upwardly open first oil return cavity, and the oil return pipe 116 is arranged at a bottom position of the first oil return cavity of the lower shaft sleeve 113.

[0037] The cooling oil entering through the oil inlet pipe 115 gradually flows into the first oil return cavity through multiple components such as bearings, and then flows out through the oil return pipe 116, and the first oil return cavity can temporarily store a small amount of cooling oil, so that when the oil inlet amount is greater than the oil return amount, the leakage is avoided.

[0038] Further, the lower end of the shaft center 111 is further provided with an oil return guide sleeve 117, the top of the oil return guide sleeve 117 is provided with a downwardly folded second bending part 1171 and forms a downwardly open second oil return cavity, the first bending part 1131 extends into the second oil return cavity, and the second bending part 1171 extends into the first oil return cavity.

[0039] The oil return guide sleeve 117 can ensure that the cooling oil flowing down from the top enters the first oil return cavity and does not leak from the first bending part 1131 and the shaft center 111 during the flowing down process, and the sealing connection of the oil return guide sleeve 117 and the shaft center 111 further avoids the leakage. The top of the oil return guide sleeve 117 is provided with an inclined guide surface 1172 along the circumference thereof, so that the cooling oil flowing down can smoothly and quickly enter the first oil return cavity.

[0040] In summary, the airflow dryer provided by the utility model realizes the temperature reduction of each component on the rotating shaft through the continuous oil cooling system by arranging the oil inlet pipe and the oil return pipe at the upper and lower ends of the rotating shaft, so that the service life of the key components is not affected while realizing the drying of the materials.

[0041] The above merely is the preferred implementation manner of the present application, and it should be noted that, for the ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the technical principles of the present application, a number of improvements and deformations can be made, and these improvements and deformations should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
