Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a drying and forming device, specifically a biomass pellet fuel drying and forming device, belonging to the field of biomass fuel technology. 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). It differs significantly from fossil fuels. According to national policies and environmental standards, direct combustion of biomass is classified as a high-pollution fuel, permitted only for use in rural stoves and not in urban areas. The actual application of biomass fuel mainly involves biomass briquettes, which are made from agricultural and forestry waste as raw materials. These briquettes are processed through crushing, mixing, extrusion, and drying to create various shapes (such as blocks and pellets) that can be directly burned – a new type of clean fuel.
[0003] Current biomass fuel drying and molding equipment is inconvenient to fully dry biomass pellets during use, which makes it difficult for the biomass pellets to be formed or to form loosely during compression molding, affecting the production quality of biomass fuel. In addition, existing biomass fuel drying and molding equipment is inconvenient to filter out impurities in biomass fuel, making it difficult to guarantee the combustion effect of biomass pellets. Utility Model Content
[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0005] This invention proposes a biomass pellet fuel drying and forming device to solve the problems in the prior art where biomass pellet fuel contains moisture, which easily leads to incomplete compression or loose forming, affecting the production quality of biomass fuel. In addition, the presence of impurities in biomass fuel makes it difficult to guarantee the combustion effect of biomass fuel.

A filtration mechanism for filtering biomass fuel is provided at the end of the rotating cylinder away from the fixed cylinder.

[0034] This utility model provides a biomass pellet fuel drying and forming device.
[0035] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The device includes a fixed cylinder 1 and a rotating cylinder 2, which are rotatably connected. The outer surfaces of the fixed cylinder 1 and the rotating cylinder 2 are provided with a drying mechanism 3 for drying biomass fuel. A support plate 4 is fixed below the fixed cylinder 1, and a support plate 5 is provided below the rotating cylinder 2. A filter mechanism 6 for filtering biomass fuel is provided at the end of the rotating cylinder 2 away from the fixed cylinder 1. A forming mechanism 7 for extruding biomass fuel is provided below the filter mechanism 6. The height of the support plate 5 is lower than the height of the support plate 4. Therefore, the fixed cylinder 1 and the rotating cylinder 2 are designed to be inclined, which allows the biomass fuel in the rotating cylinder 2 to be discharged smoothly under the action of gravity.
[0036] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The drying mechanism 3 includes a motor 301 and a motor 304. A fan 302 is fixed to the output end of the motor 301. An air heater 303 is installed inside the fixed cylinder 1. A gear 305 is fixed to the output end of the motor 304. A gear ring 306 is fixed to the outer surface of the rotating cylinder 2. The outer surface of the gear 305 meshes with the outer surface of the gear ring 306. Multiple baffles 307 arranged in a circle are fixed inside the rotating cylinder 2. An air inlet is opened on the side of the fixed cylinder 1 away from the rotating cylinder 2. Starting the first motor 301 in the drying mechanism 3 enables the fan 302 to blow the air heated by the air heater 303 into the rotating drum 2. At the same time, starting the second motor 304 enables the gear 305 to drive the gear ring 306 and the rotating drum 2 to rotate. At this time, the baffle 307 in the rotating drum 2 can pick up the biomass fuel and let it fall, increasing the contact area between the biomass fuel and the hot air, thereby fully drying the biomass pellet fuel in the rotating drum 2. This avoids the biomass pellet fuel being difficult to form or forming loosely during compression molding, thus improving the production quality of biomass fuel. The air heater 303 can convert electrical energy into heat energy to heat the surrounding air. The air heater 303 is equipped with a controller to accurately control the heating temperature. The air heater 303 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0038] A support plate 310 is provided below the rotating drum 2. The outer surface of the motor 2 304 is fixed to the outer surface of the support plate 310, and the outer surface of the motor 1 301 is fixed to the outer surface of the fixed cylinder 1.
[0039] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 5 The filtration mechanism 6 includes a motor 601 and a filter hopper 602. An eccentric block 603 is fixed to the output end of the motor 601. A filter plate 604 is slidably connected inside the filter hopper 602. The outer surface of the eccentric block 603 is always in contact with the filter plate 604. Two symmetrical springs 605 are fixed to the inner wall of the filter hopper 602 on the side of the filter plate 604 away from the eccentric block 603. When the motor 601 in the filtration mechanism 6 is started, the eccentric block 603 can drive the filter plate 604 to shake under the action of the springs 605, thereby filtering out impurities in the biomass fuel and improving the combustion effect of the biomass fuel.
[0040] The outer surface of the filter hopper 602 is fixed to the outer surface of the support plate 2 5, and the outer surface of the motor 3 601 is fixed to the outer surface of the filter hopper 602.
[0041] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 5The forming mechanism 7 includes a first cylinder 701, a second cylinder 702, and an extrusion barrel 703. The outer surface of the extrusion barrel 703 has multiple circumferentially arranged perforated dies 704. A pressure plate 705 is fixed to the output end of the first cylinder 701, and the outer surface of the pressure plate 705 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the extrusion barrel 703. A cutting ring 706 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the extrusion barrel 703, and the output end of the second cylinder 702 is fixed to the upper surface of the cutting ring 706. Activating the first cylinder 701 causes the pressure plate 705 to extrude the biomass fuel in the extrusion barrel 703, allowing the extruded biomass fuel to be formed and extruded through the perforated dies 704. Activating the second cylinder 702 causes the cutting ring 706 to slide up and down on the outer surface of the extrusion barrel 703, thereby cutting the extruded biomass fuel. The operation is convenient.
[0042] A support cylinder 707 is fixed to the bottom surface of the filter hopper 602. A groove 708 is formed on the outer surface of the support cylinder 707. A rotating rod 709 is rotatably connected inside the support cylinder 707. The outer surface of the rotating rod 709 is slidably connected to the groove 708. One end of the rotating rod 709 away from the support cylinder 707 is fixed to the outer surface of the cylinder 701. Rotating the rotating rod 709 can rotate the cylinder 701 and the pressure plate 705 to be directly above the extrusion barrel 703.
[0043] The extrusion barrel 703 is fixed to the support plate 2 5 by a fixing plate, and the outer surface of the cylinder 2 702 is fixed to the fixing plate.
[0044] A collection box 8 is provided below the forming mechanism 7, and a protective cover 9 is fixed to the upper surface of the filter hopper 602. The protective cover 9 can prevent biomass fuel from splashing when it is discharged from the rotating drum 2.
[0045] Working principle: First, biomass fuel is fed into the rotating drum 2 through the feed inlet 101. Then, the motor 301 in the drying mechanism 3 is started, causing the fan 302 to blow air heated by the air heater 303 into the rotating drum 2. Simultaneously, the motor 304 is started, causing the gear 305 to drive the gear ring 306 and the rotating drum 2 to rotate. At this time, the baffle 307 in the rotating drum 2 can lift and drop the biomass fuel, increasing the contact area between the biomass fuel and the hot air, thus fully drying the biomass pellet fuel in the rotating drum 2. This prevents the biomass pellet fuel from being difficult to form or forming loosely during compression molding, improving the production quality of the biomass fuel. The dried biomass fuel is discharged from the rotating drum 2 onto the filter hopper 602. The electric motor in the filtration mechanism 6 is then started. Machine 601, under the action of spring 605, can cause the eccentric block 603 to drive the filter plate 604 to shake, thereby filtering out impurities in the biomass fuel and improving the combustion effect of the biomass fuel. The filtered biomass fuel falls into the extrusion barrel 703 under the action of gravity. Then, the rotating rod 709 is rotated to rotate cylinder 701 and pressure plate 705 to be directly above the extrusion barrel 703. Activating cylinder 701 can cause pressure plate 705 to extrude the biomass fuel in the extrusion barrel 703. The extruded biomass fuel can be formed and extruded through the die 704. At this time, activating cylinder 702 can cause the cutting ring 706 to slide up and down on the outer surface of the extrusion barrel 703, thereby cutting the extruded biomass fuel. The operation is convenient.
