Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wooden pallet production technology, specifically a wooden pallet drying device for wooden pallet production. Background Technology
[0002] Wooden pallets are made from natural wood and are currently the most widely used type of pallet. As a horizontal platform device used for containerization, stacking, handling and transportation, their manufacturing materials also include metal, fiberboard and other materials, but wood is widely used because of its low price and strength.
[0003] A search revealed that CN 222069222 U discloses a wooden pallet drying device. This device uses a motor to drive a threaded rod to rotate, causing an adjusting block and a moving block to move within the adjusting groove of the drying cabinet. This, in turn, causes adjusting plate one and adjusting plate two to move within the drying range, ultimately moving support plate one and support plate two to adjust the distance between them to meet the drying requirements of wooden pallets of different sizes. Simultaneously, the movement of adjusting plate one and adjusting plate two also causes positioning block and guide block to slide on the positioning rod, thereby achieving guiding and positioning of adjusting plate one and adjusting plate two. This effectively solves the problem of existing drying devices having fixed spacing between support crossbars, which can only dry wooden pallets of the same size, resulting in low equipment versatility.
[0004] Nevertheless, the application still has significant shortcomings: in actual operation, the device can only dry a single wooden pallet at a time, and after the drying operation is completed, due to the high temperature of the wooden pallet, a certain amount of time must be spent to cool it down to prevent burns. This working mode severely restricts the overall drying efficiency of the wooden pallets and cannot meet the actual needs of high-efficiency production. Therefore, it is urgent to carefully plan and design an effective technical solution to properly solve the current series of technical problems and comprehensively improve the drying efficiency and production benefits of wooden pallets.

[0022] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-6A wooden pallet drying device for wooden pallet production includes a base 1, on which a drying chamber 2 is fixedly installed. Symmetrically arranged discs 3 are mounted inside the drying chamber 2, and the discs 3 are rotatable. One disc 3 is driven by a drive assembly located inside the base 1. A square hollow column 4 is fixedly installed between the two discs 3. Multiple compartments 6 are provided between the square hollow column 4 and the two discs 3 via multiple partitions 5. Multiple hooks 7 are evenly spaced on the inner walls of the compartments 6. A door 8 is hinged to one of the compartments 6 in the drying chamber 2. Drying modules 9 and cooling modules 10 are respectively installed on the side walls of the drying chamber 2 corresponding to the remaining compartments 6. The device utilizes the drying chamber 2, multiple compartments 6, multiple support rods 7, door 8, drying modules 9, and cooling modules 10. The unit comprises a temperature module 10, a first drive assembly, a second drive assembly, and multiple support rods 7 that can suspend multiple wooden pallets from top to bottom, enabling simultaneous drying of multiple wooden pallets. As multiple chambers 6 rotate within the drying chamber 2, driven by the first drive assembly, the wooden pallets suspended within these chambers can sequentially rotate to the positions of the drying module 9, the cooling module 10, and the door 8. During this process, wooden pallets in the corresponding chamber at the door 8 can be loaded and unloaded while the remaining pallets in the other chambers are dried and cooled, thus achieving continuous drying operations and improving drying efficiency. The second drive assembly, when loading and unloading wooden pallets, can drive the support rods 7 within the chamber 6 to move up and down, facilitating pallet loading and unloading.
[0024] It should be noted that both the drying module 9 and the cooling module 10 are existing modular components, so they will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0025] Specifically, there are four chambers 6 and two drying modules 9. The door 8, the two drying modules 9 and the cooling module 10 are arranged in sequence along the rotation direction of the disc 3.
[0026] The drive assembly includes a driving wheel 11, a driven wheel 12, and a brake disc 13. Both the driving wheel 11 and the driven wheel 12 are rotatably mounted within the base 1. The driving wheel 11 is driven by a motor, and a lever 14 is fixedly installed at an eccentric position on the driving wheel 11. The driven wheel 12 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the disc 3, and has multiple slots 15 that slide to fit the lever 14. The number of slots 15 is the same as the number of chambers 6. An arc-shaped groove 16 that slides between adjacent slots 15 to fit the side wall of the brake disc 13 is provided. The brake disc 13 is coaxially fixed on the drive wheel 11, and a notch 17 is provided on the brake disc 13. With this drive assembly, during the process of the motor driving the drive wheel 11 to rotate one revolution, the cooperation between the lever 14 and the slot 15 can drive the driven wheel 12 to rotate. With the cooperation between the arc groove 16 and the brake disc 13, the driven wheel 12 rotates 90° and then stops. By repeating this process, multiple compartments 6 can be rotated to the positions corresponding to the door 8, the cooling module 10 and the two drying modules 9, which further improves the applicability of the device.
[0027] The second drive assembly includes a protective cover 25, a slide rail 18, sliders 19, a connecting rope 20, a pulling rope 21, a rotating shaft 22, and a winding roller 23. The inner wall of the chamber 6 is symmetrically and fixedly provided with slide rails 18. The same number of sliders 19 as the support rods 7 are slidably arranged within the slide rails 18. The support rods 7 are fixedly installed on the sliders 19. Adjacent sliders 19 are connected by connecting ropes 20. The protective cover 25 is fixedly installed on the upper disc 3. The rotating shaft 22 is rotatably disposed within the upper protective cover 25 and is driven by a motor mounted on the disc 3. The drive shaft 22 is symmetrically fixed with winding rollers 23. One end of the pull rope 21 is wound on the winding roller 23, and the other end passes through the disc 3 and is fixedly connected to the uppermost slider 19. Specifically, when loading and unloading wooden pallets in the compartment 6 corresponding to the door 8, the motor is controlled to rotate the shaft 22. During this process, the winding roller 23 on the shaft 22 winds or unwinds the pull rope 21. In this process, the slider 19, which is equipped with a support rod 7, can move up and down along the slide rail 18, thereby facilitating the loading and unloading of wooden pallets suspended at a high place.
[0028] Furthermore, the end of the support rod 7 is also provided with a barb 24. The barb 24 can prevent the wooden pallet from slipping off the support rod 7 after the wooden pallet is suspended on it, thereby improving the stability of the wooden pallet suspension.
