In order to make the hot air flow spirally in the drying cylinder, the outer wall inner surface of the hot air inlet is tangentially arranged with the outer wall inner surface of the drying cylinder, and the rotating direction of the hot air inlet is kept consistent with the rotating direction of the scoops, so that the wet material is fully heated under the action of the force, and the water in the wet material is evaporated into superheated steam.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The present utility model will be described in further detail below in combination with the drawings.

[0028] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the present embodiment provides a totally-enclosed flame-retardant drying device. The totally-enclosed flame-retardant drying device comprises a wet material box 1, a shaftless blade pusher 2, a drying cylinder 3, a combustion hot gas expansion tank 5, a combustion furnace 6, a fuel delivery tank 7, and a cyclone separator 8. The wet material box 1 is used to provide wet material to the drying cylinder 3 through the shaftless blade pusher 2. The drying cylinder 3 is provided with a feeding port and a material and waste heat gas discharge port 31 at two ends respectively, and is provided with a transmission shaft 9 inside, a plurality of scoop plates 10 are arranged in the radial direction of the transmission shaft 9, and a driving device 11 is connected to one end of the transmission shaft 9 on the side of the discharge port 31. The combustion hot gas expansion tank 5, the combustion furnace 6, and the fuel delivery tank 7 are sequentially connected and located outside the drying cylinder 3, and the combustion hot gas expansion tank 5 is communicated with one end of the drying cylinder 3 close to the feeding port through a hot air inlet 4. The fuel delivery tank 7 is provided with a fuel inlet 71 at one end, which is used to provide fuel to the combustion furnace 6. The cyclone separator 8 is located outside the drying cylinder 3, and is communicated with the material and waste heat gas discharge port 31 of the drying cylinder 3, and the tail gas after dust removal of the cyclone separator 8 is sent to the combustion furnace 6.

[0029] Referring toFigure 1 The combustion hot gas expansion tank 5 is a hollow tank structure. The 2%-6% oxygen and a small amount of carbon monoxide in the hot air after full combustion from the combustion furnace 6 continue to burn and expand in the combustion hot gas expansion tank 5, so that the oxygen concentration in the hot air entering the fully-closed drying cylinder 3 is extremely low or even zero, i.e. in an oxygen-deficient or oxygen-lean state.

[0030] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the shaftless blade pusher 2 is arranged at one end in the wet material tank 1 and extends to the feeding port at the other end, and is driven to rotate by the feeding motor 12 and the feeding speed reducer 13. The scraper 10 is arranged perpendicularly to the transmission shaft 9. The gap between the scraper 10 and the wall of the drying cylinder 3 is 10 mm, and the scraper 10 rotates at a speed of 3 r / min-8 r / min under the driving of the transmission shaft 9, lifts and sprinkles the wet material, and the wet material directly contacts with the hot air for heat exchange, and the water in the wet material evaporates into superheated steam and is sucked into the cyclone separator 8 together with the dry material for gas-solid separation. The driving device 11 includes a driving speed reducer and a driving motor connected with the transmission shaft 9.

[0031] Referring to Figure 3 , four scrapers 10 are installed on the same radial section of the transmission shaft 9, and the included angle between each two scrapers 10 is 90°, and the adjacent scrapers 10 on the transmission shaft 9 are arranged with a 45° offset.

[0032] Referring to Figure 3 , the drying cylinder 3 is in a cylindrical shape. The axis of the hot air inlet 4 is perpendicular to the axis of the drying cylinder 3. The inner surface of the outer wall of the hot air inlet 4 is tangentially arranged with the inner surface of the outer wall of the drying cylinder 3, i.e. the inner surface of the outer wall of the hot air inlet 4 is the inner surface of the outer wall farthest from the center axis of the drying cylinder 3 (i.e. the center of the circle). By arranging the hot air inlet 4 in the tangential direction of the drying cylinder 3, the hot air flows in a spiral in the drying cylinder 3 and keeps consistent with the rotation direction of the scraper 10. Figure 3

[0033] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 ​At the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 and at the hot air inlet 4, oxygen sensors 14 and temperature sensors 15 are provided, which are connected to a control system. The control system comprises an explosion-proof alarm automatic controller 18 and a drying cylinder temperature automatic controller 19. The explosion-proof alarm automatic controller 18 is electrically connected to the oxygen sensor 14 at the material and waste heat gas outlet 31, the oxygen sensor 14 at the hot air inlet 4, the combustion furnace controller 16 electrically connected to the combustion furnace 6, and the feeding motor controller 17 electrically connected to the feeding motor 12, respectively. The drying cylinder temperature automatic controller 19 is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 15 at the material and waste heat gas outlet 31, the temperature sensor 15 at the hot air inlet 4, and the combustion furnace controller 16 electrically connected to the combustion furnace 6, respectively. The combustion furnace controller 16 is used to control the air volume of the fan in the combustion furnace 6 and the amount of fuel, and the feeding motor controller 17 is used to control the amount of wet material.

[0034] Referring to Figure 4 , when implemented, the principle of the explosion-proof alarm automatic control is as follows:

[0035] When the oxygen sensor 14 detects that the oxygen concentration at the hot air inlet 4 exceeds 6%, the combustion furnace controller 16 will adjust the air volume of the fan in the combustion furnace 6 and the amount of fuel to change the combustion condition of the combustion furnace 6, so that the oxygen in the combustion furnace 6 is fully burned into carbon dioxide, thereby strictly controlling the oxygen content in the hot air inlet 4 to be below 6%. In addition, when the oxygen sensor 14 detects that the oxygen concentration at the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 exceeds 10%, the feeding motor controller 17 slows down the pushing speed of the shaftless blade pusher 2 to reduce the feeding of wet material. When the oxygen concentration at the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 reaches 12%, the shaftless blade pusher 2 is closed by the feeding motor controller 17 and the combustion furnace 6 is closed by the combustion furnace controller 16, and an audible and visual alarm is issued, so as to ensure that the drying cylinder 3 is in an oxygen-poor or oxygen-free state, to ensure that the system operates within a safe range, thereby preventing the occurrence of explosion accidents.

[0036] Referring to Figure 5 , when implemented, the principle of the drying cylinder temperature automatic control is as follows:

[0037] When the temperature sensor 15 measures the temperature of the hot air inlet 4 to be lower than 230℃, the burner controller 16 increases the flame temperature of the burner 6 to raise the temperature of the hot air inlet 4; when the temperature of the hot air inlet 4 reaches 250℃, the burner controller 16 reduces the flame of the burner 6 to maintain the temperature of the hot air inlet 4 of the drying cylinder 3 between 230℃ and 250℃. When the temperature sensor 15 measures the temperature of the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 to be lower than 120℃, the burner controller 16 increases the air volume of the burner 6 to raise the temperature in the drying cylinder 3; when the temperature of the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 is higher than 150℃, the burner controller 16 reduces the flame of the burner 6 to lower the temperature of the drying cylinder 3, so as to maintain the temperature of the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 of the drying cylinder 3 between 120℃ and 150℃.

[0038] By maintaining the temperature of the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 between 120℃ and 150℃, the water in the wet material is ensured to be discharged in the form of superheated steam, and the system is ensured to operate within a safe range, so as to prevent the occurrence of explosion accidents.

[0039] It should be particularly pointed out that the explosion-proof alarm automatic controller 18 has a higher priority than the drying cylinder temperature automatic controller 19.

[0040] Referring to Figure 1 The drying cylinder 3 is a fully enclosed device and is horizontally and statically placed. Since the drying cylinder 3 is designed to be fully enclosed, the operating cost of compressed air consumed by the gas sealing system when sealing is required is saved, and the production cost generated by mechanical sealing is also saved. Since the drying cylinder 3 does not rotate during the drying process, the original electricity cost is greatly reduced.

[0041] Referring to Figure 1 The waste heat gas and the dried material discharged from the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 are sucked into the cyclone separator 8. The dry material loses kinetic energy after being thrown to the wall under the action of centrifugal force in the cyclone separator 8 and slides to the lower dry material outlet end 81 of the cyclone separator 8, while the separated waste heat gas is discharged from the upper part of the cyclone separator 8, is dedusted, is sent to the burner 6, is further purified, and is recycled.

[0042] The movement principle of the wet material from the feeding port to the material and waste heat gas outlet 31 is as follows:

[0043] One is that the wet material rotates (i.e. scoops up, spills down) in the drying cylinder 3 under the driving of the scoop plate 10; two is that the tangential hot air spirally flows in the drying cylinder 3, and also drives the wet material to rotate, the rotating direction of the hot air is consistent with the rotating direction of the scoop plate 10 on the shaft; three is that the wet material scooped up by the scoop plate 10 will spill down under the action of gravity after reaching a certain angle; under the action of the three forces, the wet material moves from one end of the drying cylinder 3 close to the feeding port to the other end close to the discharge port 31. In the moving process, the hot air and the wet material in the drying cylinder 3 are in full contact, the heat transfer efficiency is high, and the drying is uniform, thereby solving the problem of uneven drying of the existing material.

[0044] The embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict, and the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict. The specific embodiments described above are only illustrative, not limiting, and those skilled in the art can make many forms under the inspiration of the present application without departing from the purpose of the present application and the scope protected by the claims.
