A centrifugal inner cylinder 210 is provided inside the dehydration shell 21. The top of the dehydration shell 21 is provided with a feeding hopper 25 for feeding into the centrifugal inner cylinder 210. The bottom of the centrifugal inner cylinder 210 is provided with a sealing cone plate 211 for sealing its outlet. A drive shaft 215 is fixed to the top of the sealing cone plate 211. A rotating shaft 212 is fixed in the middle of the centrifugal inner cylinder 210. The drive shaft 215 is installed inside the rotating shaft 212, which can slide up and down and rotate with it. The rotating shaft 212 is connected to a rotation drive mechanism, and the drive shaft 215 is connected to a sliding drive mechanism.

[0027] During feeding, the sliding drive mechanism drives the drive shaft 215 to rise, and the sealing cone plate 211 seals the bottom of the centrifugal inner cylinder 210.
