Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seed processing equipment technology, specifically to a seed drying device for agricultural planting. Background Technology

[0002] In agricultural planting, seed drying is a crucial step in ensuring seed quality. Freshly harvested seeds often have a high moisture content; for example, wheat seeds may have a moisture content of 18%-20% at harvest, and corn seeds may have a moisture content of 20%-30%. Seeds with high moisture content are susceptible to microbial attack (such as mold), leading to mold and deterioration. Moreover, during storage, high-moisture seeds have a stronger respiration rate, consuming a large amount of oxygen and generating heat, further accelerating seed deterioration and reducing germination rate and vigor. Drying reduces the moisture content of seeds to a safe storage standard (generally, the moisture content of grain seeds is around 13%-15%), effectively extending the storage period of seeds and providing high-quality seeds for the next season's agricultural planting.

[0003] Currently, seed drying machines are commonly used to dry seeds. The seed dryer blows hot air over the surface of the seeds. At this time, the moisture inside the seeds will move to the surface due to the temperature difference and then evaporate into the hot air. The hot air then carries the moisture out of the drying equipment.

[0004] However, during the actual seed drying process, it was found that the efficiency of seed moisture extraction varies in different areas that come into contact with hot air, which can easily lead to uneven and incomplete seed drying, which is not conducive to ensuring the quality of dried seeds.

[0005] In summary, there is a current need for a seed drying device for agricultural planting that facilitates the uniform drying of seeds. Utility Model Content

[0026] To address the technical problems in the background section, the following seed drying device for agricultural planting is provided:

[0027] Combination Figures 1-5As shown, this utility model provides a seed drying device for agricultural planting, including an adjustable base 1, a mounting plate 2 on the top of the adjustable base 1, a mounting frame 21 on the top surface of the mounting plate 2, a seed storage mechanism 3 on the inner side of the top of the mounting frame 21, a drying mechanism 5 at the bottom of the seed storage mechanism 3, the drying mechanism 5 can send heated air into the seed storage mechanism 3 to contact the seeds and remove moisture from the seeds, a uniform material mechanism 4 inside the seed storage mechanism 3, an auxiliary air outlet mechanism 6 on the top of the seed storage mechanism 3, and a drying tank 31 inside the drying tank 31, forming a drying chamber for storing and placing the seeds to be dried. The drying mechanism 5 includes an air pump 51, a drying box 52, an upper air pipe 53, an upper air box 54, and an air outlet 55. The air pump 51 is located on the top surface of the mounting plate 2 and is used to provide power for the flow of hot air. The air outlet of the air pump 51 is equipped with the drying box 52. The top of the drying box 52 is equipped with the upper air pipe 53, and the top of the upper air pipe 53 is equipped with the upper air box 54. The top surface of the upper air box 54 is attached to the outside of the storage mechanism 3. The top of the upper air box 54 is equipped with an air outlet 55. Multiple air outlets 55 are arranged in an array. The end of the air outlet 55 away from the upper air box 54 extends into the interior of the storage mechanism 3. The array of air outlets 55 can evenly deliver hot air into the drying chamber at multiple points to contact the seeds and achieve the effect of drying the seeds.

[0028] In this embodiment, the drying box 52 further includes a heating chamber inside, and multiple heating rods 521 are provided inside the heating chamber. The heating rods 521 can heat the air sent into the heating chamber by the air pump 51, ensuring that the air entering the drying chamber contacts the seeds and maintains a suitable temperature for drying the seeds.

[0029] In this embodiment, the storage mechanism 3 further includes a feeding cylinder 32 and a discharge door 33. The drying tank 31 is fixedly installed inside the mounting frame 21. The top of one end of the drying tank 31 is provided with a feeding cylinder 32 for feeding seeds to be dried. The top of the feeding cylinder 32 is provided with a cylinder cover 321. The bottom of the other end of the drying tank 31 is provided with a discharge port for discharging the dried seeds. The outside of the discharge port is provided with a discharge door 33. The outside of the drying tank 31 is provided with a guide frame 34. The guide frame 34 engages and slides with the discharge door 33.

[0030] In this embodiment, the material leveling mechanism 4 further includes a motor 41, a material leveling rod 42, a support rod 43, and a material leveling plate 44. The motor 41 is located at the end of the drying tank 31. The end of the motor 41 is provided with a material leveling rod 42, which is rotatably connected to the drying tank 31. The support rod 43 is provided on the outside of the material leveling rod 42. The end of the support rod 43 away from the material leveling rod 42 is provided with a material leveling plate 44. The material leveling plate 44 slides against the inner side of the drying tank 31. The material leveling plate 44 can slowly and evenly stir the seeds during the hot air drying process so that the hot air can come into even contact with the seeds, which is beneficial to improving the drying effect of the hot air on the seeds.

[0031] When this seed drying device for agricultural planting is used, the seeds to be dried are put into the drying chamber through the feeding cylinder 32. At this time, the air pump 51 in the drying mechanism 5 sends air into the drying box 52 and is heated by the heating rod 521. Then, the hot air is sent into the drying chamber by the array of air outlets 55 to contact the seeds. During the drying process, the motor 41 drives the uniform material rod 42 to rotate. At this time, the uniform material plate 44 stirs the dried seeds, so that the seeds can be evenly contacted with the hot air, thereby making the drying of the seeds more uniform and thorough, which is beneficial to improving the quality of the dried seeds.

[0032] In this embodiment, the air outlet mechanism 6 further includes an air outlet duct 61 and an electric fan 62. The air outlet duct 61 is located at the top of the drying tank 31, and the electric fan 62 is installed inside the air outlet duct 61. By exhausting air outward through the electric fan 62 in the air outlet duct 61, the hot air that has come into contact with the seeds in the drying chamber can be discharged in a timely manner. In this way, the hot air in the drying mechanism 5 can flow stably in the drying chamber and maintain a stable drying effect.

[0033] In this embodiment, the adjusting base 1 further includes a base plate 11, a bracket 12, and a connecting block 13. The bracket 12 is provided on the top surface of one end of the base plate 11, and the connecting block 13 is provided in the middle of the bracket 12. The connecting block 13 engages and rotates with the bracket 12. The top of the connecting block 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the end of the mounting plate 2. The bottom surface of the other end of the mounting plate 2 is provided with a driving component. Through the rotational connection between the connecting block 13 and the bracket 12, the mounting plate 2 and the material storage mechanism 3 rotate above the adjusting base 1 to adjust their posture.

[0034] As an improvement to the above solution, the drive assembly includes a hydraulic rod 14, a push rod 15, and a top plate 16. The hydraulic rod 14 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the base plate 11, and the push rod 15 is located on the top of the hydraulic rod 14. The top plate 16 is located on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 2, and the bottom surface of the top plate 16 is formed with an arc-shaped groove. The push rod 15 slides in contact with the arc-shaped groove, and the hydraulic rod 14 can control the push rod 15 to rise and fall, so that the push rod 15 contacts the top plate 16 to control the rotation of the mounting plate 2 and the storage mechanism 3. In this way, the storage mechanism 3 can maintain an inclined state after the seeds are dried. At this time, the dried seeds can be discharged from the outlet. At the same time, the uniform material mechanism 4 stirs the seeds in the drying chamber, which can help the seeds be discharged from the storage tank, which is conducive to the convenient discharge of the dried seeds by the drying device.
