Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of lab-grown diamond production technology, specifically relating to a graphite powder drying device. Background Technology

[0002] Graphite powder is soft and blackish-gray in color. It is one of the most heat-resistant minerals and, after processing, can be used as a raw material for the production of lab-grown diamonds. During the lab-grown diamond production process, the graphite powder, which contains a certain amount of moisture, needs to be dried to ensure better preservation and use.

[0003] Chinese patent document CN221147058U discloses a graphite powder drying device for lab-grown diamond production. When cleaning the inside of the drying barrel, the barrel cover can be removed from the opening of the drying barrel. As the barrel cover is removed, the stirring component can be taken out from the drying barrel, so that the stirring component will not hinder the cleaning work, reducing the cleaning difficulty and making it easier for the workers to clean the drying barrel.

[0004] However, in the existing technology, after graphite powder is injected into the drying device, it will accumulate to a certain height in a relatively fixed position. Although the graphite powder can be stirred by the stirring component to make the graphite powder dry more evenly, it often takes a long time to complete the full drying of the graphite powder. Therefore, a graphite powder drying device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0027] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a graphite powder drying device includes a support component 1 that enables the device to operate stably, a drying component 2 that improves the drying speed and uniformity of the graphite powder on the support component 1, and a drive component 3 that enables the device to stir the graphite powder at a certain speed on the drying component 2.

[0028] In this embodiment: the support component 1 includes a frame 101, a first bearing 102 is fixedly installed in the frame 101, a rotating shaft 103 is movably connected between the first bearings 102, and an abutment block 104 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 103.

[0029] The first bearing seat 102 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 103; the frame 101 provides installation positions for components such as the first bearing seat 102 and the support 201; the rotating shaft 103 is installed below the drying chamber 203 through the first bearing seat 102; the abutment block 104, whose range of motion is limited by the rotating shaft 103, contacts a portion of the outer side of the drying chamber 203, providing support for the drying chamber 203.

[0030] In this embodiment: the drying component 2 includes a container for adjusting the accumulation position of graphite powder within the device, a stirring component that continuously stirs the graphite powder under the action of the driving component 3, and a heating component that can increase the temperature inside the container according to drying needs. The container includes a support 201 fixedly connected to the frame 101, a sealing plate 202 movably connected to the support 201, a drying chamber 203 fixedly connected between the sealing plates 202, a feed cover 204 movably installed at the feed end of the drying chamber 203, and a discharge cover 204 movably installed at the discharge end of the drying chamber 203. 5. A hydraulic rod 206 is provided between the frame 101 and the drying chamber 203. The stirring component includes a second shaft seat 207 fixedly connected to the sealing plate 202. A stirring shaft 208 is movably connected between the second shaft seats 207. A rotating frame 209 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the stirring shaft 208. A material feeding plate 210 is fixedly connected to the rotating frame 209. A leakage hole 211 is integrally formed on the material feeding plate 210. The heating component includes an arc-shaped sealing frame 212 fixedly installed on the outer side of the drying chamber 203. A heating plate 213 is fixedly installed inside the arc-shaped sealing frame 212.

[0031] The frame 101 is rotatably connected to the hydraulic rod 206, the support 201 is rotatably connected to the sealing plate 202, the feed cover 204, the discharge cover 205, the hydraulic rod 206 are all rotatably connected to the drying chamber 203, and the second shaft seat 207 is rotatably connected to the stirring shaft 208.

[0032] The movable range of the sealing plate 202 is limited by the support 201 mounted on the frame 101. The sealing plates 202 at different positions respectively close the openings at the front and rear of the drying chamber 203. At the same time, the drying chamber 203 is installed. The opening and closing of the feeding end and the discharging end of the drying chamber 203 are controlled by the feed cover 204 and the discharge cover 205 respectively. The hydraulic rod 206 drives the drying chamber 203, the sealing plate 202 and other components to rotate relative to the support 201, thereby adjusting the inclination of the feeding end and the discharging end of the drying chamber 203 within the device. The stirring shaft 208 is installed between the sealing plates 202 via the second shaft seat 207. The rotation of the stirring shaft 208 is transmitted to the feeding plate 210 via the rotating frame 209. The rotating feeding plate 210 moves the graphite powder in the drying chamber 203. The graphite powder can pass through the feeding plate 210 through the leakage hole 211 so as to make more full contact with the hot air in the drying chamber 203. The opening on the outer side of the drying chamber 203 is sealed by the arc-shaped sealing frame 212, and the heating plate 213 that can heat the air in the drying chamber 203 is installed.

[0033] In this embodiment: the drive assembly 3 includes a bracket 301 fixedly installed on the outer side of the drying chamber 203, a motor 302 fixedly installed on the bracket 301, a first pulley 303 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 302, a second pulley 304 fixedly connected to the rear end of the stirring shaft 208, and a belt 305 provided between the first pulley 303 and the second pulley 304.

[0034] The motor 302 is installed in the device through the bracket 301. The rotation of the output end of the motor 302 is transmitted to the stirring shaft 208 through the first pulley 303, belt 305 and second pulley 304, so that the stirring shaft 208 can rotate at a certain speed relative to the second shaft seat 207 after the motor 302 is running.

[0035] Working principle: When this device is installed for drying graphite powder related to diamond production, the feed cover 204 is opened and the graphite powder to be dried is injected into the drying chamber 203. Then the feed cover 204 is locked and the heating plate 213 and motor 302 are activated. The activated heating plate 213 can heat the air and graphite powder in the drying chamber 203. The activated motor 302 can drive the feeding plate 210 to rotate around the axis of the stirring shaft 208. Based on this, during the process of drying graphite powder, the intermittent operation of the hydraulic rod 206 can drive the drying chamber 203 and other components to rotate by a certain amplitude each time, thereby continuously adjusting the accumulation position of graphite powder in the drying chamber 203, so as to avoid some graphite powder always accumulating in the bottom area of ​​the drying chamber 203 and not being able to be heated evenly.

[0036] When drying is complete, the position of the discharge end of the drying chamber 203 can be lowered by working the hydraulic rod 206 again. When the discharge end of the drying chamber 203 can face downwards at an angle, the discharge cover 205 can be opened to allow the dried graphite powder to flow out of the drying chamber 203.

[0037] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
