This kind of material is easy to process, and can adjust the injection molding parameters according to the product design requirements, realize the accurate forming of complex shape.

[0003] Before the bio -based plastics are sent into the injection molding machine, the plastic particles need to be dried to avoid the influence of moisture in the plastic particles on injection molding. In the injection molding factory, the hot air type drying machine is the most common drying equipment, and its specific structure can refer to CN217210130U. The drying equipment disclosed in the above patent, hot air can only be blown from bottom to top, and the drying speed is not fast enough. And, a valve mechanism needs to be set below the isolation plate, and the structure is relatively complex, which needs to be improved. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0004] To solve the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a drying device for bio -based plastics processing.

[0005] In order to achieve the above target, the technical scheme of the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A drying device for bio -based plastics processing, including storage cylinder, fan and heater, the top of the storage cylinder is connected with the cover plate, the cover plate is provided with the feed inlet, the bottom of the storage cylinder is connected with the bottom cylinder of taper, the bottom of the bottom cylinder is connected with the valve, the air outlet of the fan is connected with the air inlet of the heater, the air outlet of the heater is connected with the side of the bottom cylinder through the pipeline, the filter is installed in the storage cylinder, the bottom of the filter is provided with the discharge port, the inside of the storage cylinder is vertically provided with the auxiliary ventilation pipe, the top of the auxiliary ventilation pipe is closed, the side wall of the auxiliary ventilation pipe is evenly distributed with a plurality of air holes, the cover plate is installed with the lifting device, the auxiliary ventilation pipe is connected with the lifting end of the lifting device, the lifting device can drive the auxiliary ventilation pipe to move up and down, and make the auxiliary ventilation pipe plug into the discharge port of the filter or make the bottom end of the auxiliary ventilation pipe above the discharge port of the filter.

[0007] Further, the lifting device is a pneumatic cylinder, the pneumatic cylinder is vertically installed on the cover plate, and the piston rod of the pneumatic cylinder is connected with the top end of the auxiliary ventilation pipe.

[0008] The beneficial effect of the utility model is: compared with traditional hot air type dehumidification device, the device sets up auxiliary ventilation pipe in longitudinal direction in storage cylinder, the hot air generated by fan and heater can not only flow upward directly through filter, but also diffuse outward from the center of storage cylinder through auxiliary ventilation pipe, which effectively increases the contact area of plastic particles and hot air, can spend less time and complete the drying of plastic particles more quickly, the auxiliary ventilation pipe can also play the effect of opening or closing the discharge port of filter, need not set valve mechanism under filter, simplifies the structure of whole device, reduces processing cost.
