Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grain dryer technology, and in particular to a grain dryer. Background Technology

[0002] Grains refer to food that provides energy for human life and is necessary for survival, such as various plant seeds, fruits, vegetables and meat products. They mainly contain protein, vitamins, dietary fiber and fat. For plant seeds (such as peanuts, soybeans, corn and wheat), drying equipment is usually used to dry the harvested grains to remove moisture in order to facilitate their storage.

[0003] Currently, existing grain dryers often lack effective impurity filtration mechanisms, resulting in the grain to be dried being mixed with impurities such as straw before being fed into the drying equipment. This not only increases drying time but also negatively impacts work efficiency. Furthermore, excessive straw and other impurities mixed with the grain can lead to accumulation and blockages inside the dryer, affecting normal operation and potentially increasing the risk of malfunction under certain conditions, thus creating safety hazards.

[0004] Based on this, we propose a grain dryer to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of the present invention, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents, and such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention.

[0006] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a grain dryer that can solve the problems of existing grain dryers, such as the lack of an effective impurity filtration mechanism, which leads to the mixing of grain with impurities such as straw, prolonged drying time, reduced working efficiency, and equipment blockage.

[0007] To solve the above technical problems, this utility model provides a grain dryer, which adopts the following technical solution: it includes a transmission base, a rotating dryer is installed on the top of the transmission base, a screening and feeding assembly is connected to the top of one end of the rotating dryer, the screening and feeding assembly includes a screening box, a transmission motor is provided in the middle of both sides of the screening box, a discharge plate is inclinedly connected to the two sides of the screening box away from the transmission motor, and a filter screen is also inclinedly arranged inside the screening box near the discharge plate;

[0008] Both sets of drive motors have drive discs installed at their output ends, and multiple sets of cams are arranged in a circular array around the outer periphery of the two sets of drive discs.

[0009] Optionally, the aperture of the filter screen is matched with the diameter of the grain, and the cam makes rolling contact with the two sides of the two sets of filter screens.

[0010] Optionally, two sets of guide sliders are installed on both sides of the filter screen, and compression springs are connected to both ends of the guide sliders. Guide grooves are respectively opened on the two sides of the guide sliders away from the compression springs.

[0011] Optionally, the top of the screening box is connected to a feed flange pipe, and four sets of guide ports are opened on both sides of the screening box. The guide ports are matched with the guide slider structure, and the guide ports and guide grooves are in sliding fit.

[0012] Optionally, the rotary dryer includes a rotary drying cylinder, which is connected to the transmission base via a transmission connection, and a material discharge end cover is installed at one end of the rotary drying cylinder.

[0013] Optionally, the screening and feeding assembly includes a material discharge end cover, a hot air blower is installed at the end of the material discharge end cover away from the rotating drying cylinder, a feeding hopper is installed on the top of the material discharge end cover, and the feeding hopper is fixedly connected to the screening box.

[0014] In summary, this utility model has at least one of the following beneficial effects: This solution utilizes a screening and feeding assembly installed at the top of one end of the rotary dryer. This assembly mainly consists of a screening box, a drive motor, a discharge plate, and a filter screen. The filter screen includes a guide slider, a compression spring, and a guide groove. When the drive motor is powered on, it drives the drive disc and cam to rotate on both sides of the inner wall of the screening box. Because the cam rolls into contact with the two sets of filter screens, it causes the inclined discharge plate to vibrate up and down within the screening box. This process screens and filters the grain fed into the screening box, ensuring that grain particles pass through the filter screen into the rotary drying drum, while impurities such as straw are effectively removed and discharged. The inclined structure of the discharge plate and filter screen allows the screened straw and other impurities to be smoothly discharged. Therefore, the grain dryer designed in this solution can effectively remove impurities from the grain, improve the cleanliness of the grain drying process, and prevent impurities from entering the rotary drying drum and causing accumulation and blockage. This design enhances the flexibility and practicality of the equipment in the grain drying field. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example: Refer to Figures 1 to 6This utility model provides an embodiment of a grain dryer, including a transmission base 1, a rotating dryer 2 installed on the top of the transmission base 1, a screening and feeding assembly 3 connected to the top of one end of the rotating dryer 2, the screening and feeding assembly 3 including a screening box 4, a transmission motor 5 arranged in the middle of both sides of the screening box 4, a discharge plate 6 inclinedly connected to the two sides of the screening box 4 away from the transmission motor 5, a filter screen 7 inclinedly arranged inside the screening box 4 near the discharge plate 6, a transmission disc 8 installed at the output end of both sets of transmission motors 5, and multiple sets of cams 9 arranged in a circular array around the outer periphery of the two sets of transmission discs 8. This grain dryer can screen and filter impurities such as straw mixed in the grain, which can improve the cleanliness of the grain during drying, and at the same time prevent the entry of impurities such as straw, which would cause accumulation and blockage inside the rotating drying cylinder 15.

[0025] The aperture of the filter screen 7 matches the diameter of the grain. The cam 9 and the two sides of the two sets of filter screens 7 are in rolling contact. Through the structural design of the rolling contact between the cam 9 and the two sides of the two sets of filter screens 7, when the drive motor 5 installed in the middle of both sides of the screening box 4 is powered on, it can drive the drive disc 8 and the cam 9 installed at the output end of the drive motor 5 to rotate. This can drive the two sets of inclined discharge plates 6 to shake up and down inside the screening box 4, which can screen and filter the grain put into the screening box 4. Two sets of guide sliders 10 are installed on both sides of the filter screen 7. Both ends of the guide sliders 10 are connected to compression springs 11. Guide grooves 12 are opened on the sides of the guide sliders 10 away from the compression springs 11. By installing the guide sliders 10, compression springs 11 and guide grooves 12 on both sides of the filter screen 7, the two sets of filter screens 7 can be elastically connected inside the screening box 4.

[0026] The top of the screening box 4 is connected to a feed flange pipe 13. Four sets of guide ports 14 are respectively opened on both sides of the screening box 4. The guide ports 14 are structurally matched with the guide slider 10, and the guide ports 14 and guide grooves 12 are in sliding fit. Through the sliding fit structure between the guide ports 14 and guide grooves 12, the two sets of filter screens 7 elastically connected inside the screening box 4 can vibrate under the drive of the cam 9. The rotary dryer 2 includes a rotary drying cylinder 15, which is connected to the transmission base 1 via a transmission connection. One end of the rotary drying cylinder 15 is equipped with... The material discharge end cover 16, through the structural design of the transmission connection between the rotating drying cylinder 15 and the transmission base 1, can rotate and adjust the rotating drying cylinder 15 according to the usage conditions. The screening and feeding assembly 3 includes a material discharge end cover 17. A hot air blower 18 is installed at the end of the material discharge end cover 17 away from the rotating drying cylinder 15. A feeding hopper 19 is installed on the top of the material discharge end cover 17. The feeding hopper 19 is fixedly connected to the screening box 4. By adding a hot air blower 18 to one end of the material discharge end cover 17, the inside of the rotating drying cylinder 15 can be treated with hot air.

[0027] Working Principle: This solution uses a screening and feeding assembly 3 installed at the top of one end of the rotary dryer 2. The screening and feeding assembly 3 mainly consists of a screening box 4, a drive motor 5, a discharge plate 6, and a filter screen 7. The filter screen 7 includes a guide slider 10, a compression spring 11, and a guide groove 12. When the drive motor 5 installed in the middle of both sides of the screening box 4 is powered on, it can drive the drive disc 8 and cam 9 installed at the output end of the drive motor 5 to rotate. Since the cam 9 has rolling contact with the two sides of the two sets of filter screens 7, it can drive the two sets of inclined discharge plates 6 to shake up and down inside the screening box 4, which can screen and filter the grain fed into the screening box 4. Since the aperture of the filter screen 7 matches the diameter of the grain, it can transport the grain particles to be dried to the inside of the rotary drying cylinder 15, while the straw and other impurities mixed in the grain can be filtered out. The filtered straw and other impurities can also be discharged outwards by the inclination of the discharge plate 6 and the filter screen 7.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
