Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biofuel technology, specifically to a dehumidification device for dry materials in biofuel production. Background Technology

[0002] Biomass fuel refers to fuel made by burning biomass materials, primarily agricultural and forestry waste (such as straw, sawdust, bagasse, and rice husks). In the production of biomass fuel, the moisture content of the raw materials is a key factor affecting product quality and production efficiency. Excessive moisture leads to incomplete combustion, producing smoke and harmful gases, reducing combustion efficiency, and increasing the difficulty of transportation and storage. Therefore, dehumidification equipment plays a crucial role in biomass fuel production. However, during the dehumidification process, differences in bulk density, shape, and size can lead to uneven dehumidification, with some areas being excessively moist and others too dry. Overly dense packing or poor ventilation can also reduce dehumidification efficiency. Furthermore, prolonged static storage or excessively high humidity can easily cause the dry material to clump, affecting subsequent processing and combustion efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a dehumidification device for dry materials in biofuel production, including a dehumidification tank 1, and a stirring and unblocking mechanism 2 is provided on the dehumidification tank 1; the stirring and unblocking mechanism 2 includes a motor 21 fixedly connected to the top of the dehumidification tank 1 and a gear ring 22 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the dehumidification tank 1. The motor 21 is electrically connected to an external power source and is controlled by an external program. The motor 22 is a servo motor with two output shafts, which can be controlled synchronously or independently. The motor 21 has two output shafts. A feeding and unblocking assembly 23 is installed between the upper output shaft and the dehumidification tank 1. A cross connecting bar 24 is fixedly connected to the end of the lower output shaft. A first stirring shaft 25 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cross connecting bar 24. A second stirring shaft 26 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the cross connecting bar 24. A gear 27 is fixedly connected to the surface of the second stirring shaft 26. Multiple stirring rods 28 are fixedly connected to the surfaces of both the first stirring shaft 25 and the second stirring shaft 26. By setting up the mixing and unblocking mechanism 2, the second stirring shaft's revolution and rotation trajectory mixes the material. With the assistance of the first stirring shaft, the dry material can be mixed evenly, breaking up clumps and maintaining its loose state. This allows the hot air from drying to penetrate the dry material layer more smoothly, improving dehumidification efficiency. Furthermore, the feeding and unblocking assembly continuously unblocks the material, making the feeding process smoother and preventing blockages.

[0024] The feeding and unblocking assembly 23 includes a connecting platform 231 fixedly connected to the end of the upper output shaft and a connecting column 232 fixedly connected to the top of the dehumidification tank 1. The surface of the connecting platform 231 is provided with a transmission groove 233. The top of the connecting column 232 is fixedly connected with a limit strip 234. The inner wall of the limit strip 234 is slidably connected with a sliding rod 235. The surface of the sliding rod 235 is fixedly connected with a connecting sleeve 236 and an unblocking head 237 respectively. The right side of the connecting sleeve 236 is fixedly connected with a transmission rod 238.

[0025] The second stirring shaft 26 is provided with four shafts, which are arranged in a ring array at the bottom of the cross connecting bar 24. All four gears 27 mesh with the gear ring 22, and the transmission rod 238 and the transmission groove 233 are matched.

[0026] The top of the dehumidification tank 1 is connected to the inlet 3, and the bottom of the dehumidification tank 1 is connected to the outlet 4. The outlet 4 is equipped with an outlet valve 5, which can control the discharge after drying.

[0027] A support column 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dehumidifier tank 1, and a base plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support column 6.

[0028] A connecting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the surface of the dehumidifier tank 1, and a drying device body 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 8. The drying device body is electrically connected to an external power source and is controlled by an external program. The drying device body removes humid air by using hot air, which is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The drying device body 9 is connected to the dehumidifier tank 1 through a pipe 10.

[0029] There are four support columns 6, which are arranged in a ring array at the bottom edge of the dehumidification tank 1. The design of multiple support columns 6 ensures the stability of the equipment.

[0030] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the material is fed into the feed inlet 3. At this time, the motor 21 is started, and its output shaft drives the connecting table 231 to rotate. While the connecting table 231 rotates, the transmission groove 233 on its surface drives the transmission rod 238. The transmission rod 238 drives the sliding rod 235 to slide up and down in the inner wall of the limiting strip 234 through the connecting sleeve 236. At the same time, the sliding rod 235 drives the unblocking head 237 to unblock the material in the feed inlet 3 and promote its feeding. Simultaneously, the output shaft below the motor 21 drives the cross connecting strip 24 to rotate. While the cross connecting strip 24 rotates, it drives the bottom of the... The first stirring shaft 25 rotates around the output shaft of the motor 21, causing multiple stirring rods 28 on the first stirring shaft 25 to stir the material entering the middle of the tank. Simultaneously, as the cross connecting bar 24 rotates, it also drives four second stirring shafts 26 to revolve around it along the inner edge of the dehumidification tank 1, also around the output shaft of the motor 21. When the four second stirring shafts 26 pass the gear ring 22, they mesh with it, causing each of the four second stirring shafts 26 to rotate around its own center. This combined motion of revolution and rotation ensures that the four second stirring shafts 26 also stir the material. Then, the drying device body 9 is activated, allowing it to dry the material in the dehumidification tank 1 through the pipe 10.
