[0029] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of this utility model will now be described in detail. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, will provide a further detailed description. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are intended only to explain this utility model and not to limit it. For those skilled in the art, this utility model can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely to provide a better understanding of this utility model by illustrating examples of it.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a gel drying fixture, which includes a container body 1 and a container top cover 2. The container body 1 has an internal cavity for containing gel, and the top of the container body 1 has a container opening communicating with the cavity. The container top cover 2 is detachably mounted on the top of the container body 1. The container top cover 2 includes a top cover peripheral plate 21 and a breathable mesh 22. The top cover peripheral plate 21 is distributed circumferentially around the top of the container body 1, and the breathable mesh 22 is installed on the top of the top cover peripheral plate 21 and located above the container opening.

[0031] Specifically, when drying the gel, the wet gel is first placed in the container body 1, then the container top cover 2 is placed on top of the container body 1, and then the container body 1 with the container top cover 2 is installed in the drying kettle; then the hot air device of the drying kettle is activated, which blows hot air onto the container top cover 2 and the container body 1, causing the wet gel to dry; after the gel is dried, the container body 1 with the container top cover 2 is removed from the drying kettle; finally, the container top cover 2 is removed, and the gel in the container body 1 can be further removed. Therefore, in this utility model, simply placing the container top cover 2 on top of the container body 1 can provide dust protection for the gel in the container body 1; simply removing the container top cover 2 from the top of the container body 1 allows the gel in the container body 1 to be removed. Therefore, the operation of the gel drying fixture of this utility model is simple, eliminating the need for binding and fixing the fiberglass mesh and removing the fiberglass mesh, reducing the workload of workers, and shortening the overall time of the gel drying process, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0032] In some embodiments, both the container body 1 and the container top cover 2 are made of a metal material with good thermal conductivity, such as stainless steel or copper-zinc alloy.

[0033] Specifically, fiberglass mesh will be damaged after a few uses and must be replaced, leading to increased production costs in the long run. Container top cover 2, on the other hand, can be used continuously, reducing production costs. Furthermore, when using fiberglass mesh, the fibers gradually accumulate at the exhaust vent of the drying kettle, causing blockages. Container top cover 2, however, does not cause these blockages.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the top cover peripheral plate 21 includes two top cover end plates 211 and two top cover side plates 212. The two top cover end plates 211 are spaced apart in the width direction of the container top cover 2, and the two top cover side plates 212 are spaced apart in the length direction of the container top cover 2. The two sides of the two top cover end plates 211 are connected by the top cover side plates 212 respectively. The top cover end plates 211 and the top cover side plates 212 are respectively connected to the ventilated mesh 22.

[0035] Specifically, by configuring the top cover peripheral plate 21 as described above, the structure of the top cover peripheral plate 21 is simplified, making it easier to manufacture and reducing production costs. In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the container top cover 2 can be rectangular, and the upper middle part of the container top cover 2 can be semi-cylindrical. In other embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, the container top cover 2 can be a rectangular parallelepiped. Of course, the container top cover 2 can also be other shapes, and this utility model does not impose any restrictions. In addition, the top cover side plate 212 can be a split structure comprising multiple independent parts, or it can be a one-piece molded structure; the top cover end plate 211 can also be a split structure or a one-piece structure, and this utility model does not impose any restrictions.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the top cover end plate 211 includes a first end plate 2111, a second end plate 2112, and a third end plate 2113 distributed from bottom to top. The length of the first end plate 2111 is greater than the length of the second end plate 2112, and the second end plate 2112 is connected to the top middle of the first end plate 2111. The length of the second end plate 2112 is greater than the length of the third end plate 2113, and the third end plate 2113 is connected to the top middle of the second end plate 2112.

[0037] Specifically, this design can be adapted to the curved top wall of the drying vessel, which helps to maximize the capacity of the container body 1, thereby increasing the amount of wet gel dried in a single batch. Moreover, compared to a semi-cylindrical or cuboid shape, the container top cover 2 has a more compact structure and is lighter, making it easier for staff to move.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the top cover side plate 212 includes two first side plates 2121, two second side plates 2122 and two third side plates 2123. The two sides of the two first end plates 2111 are connected by the first side plates 2121, the two sides of the two second end plates 2112 are connected by the second side plates 2122, and the two sides of the two third end plates 2113 are connected by the third side plates 2123.

[0039] Specifically, the top cover side plate 212 is configured as a split structure comprising multiple independent parts. The first side plate 2121 closes the side of the first end plate 2111, the second side plate 2122 closes the side of the second end plate 2112, and the third side plate 2123 closes the side of the third end plate 2113. Furthermore, the container top cover 2 has a stepped structure overall. This design can adapt to the curved top wall of the drying vessel, helping to maximize the capacity of the container body 1.

[0040] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the breathable mesh 22 includes two first mesh blocks 221, two second mesh blocks 222, and one third mesh block 223; the two first mesh blocks 221 are respectively located on both sides of the second end plate 2112, and the top of the first end plate 2111, the top of the first side plate 2121, and the bottom of the second side plate 2122 are respectively connected to the first mesh block 221; the two second mesh blocks 222 are respectively located on both sides of the third end plate 2113, and the top of the second end plate 2112, the top of the second side plate 2122, and the bottom of the third side plate 2123 are respectively connected to the second mesh block 222; the top of the third end plate 2113 and the top of the third side plate 2123 are respectively connected to the third mesh block 223.

[0041] Specifically, two first mesh blocks 221, two second mesh blocks 222, and one third mesh block 223 correspond one-to-one with the five containment zones 16, enabling the discharge of gases generated in the corresponding containment zone 16. Among them, the third mesh block 223 is positioned highest, the second mesh block 222 is positioned next, and the first mesh block 221 is positioned lowest. This arrangement can adapt to the curved top wall of the drying vessel, helping to maximize the capacity of the container body 1.

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a pull ring 23 is provided on the outer side of the third side plate 2123.

[0043] Specifically, the pull ring 23 is easy for workers to grip, thus facilitating the installation or removal of the container top cover 2.

[0044] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the container body 1 includes two container end plates 11, two container side plates 12, and a container bottom plate 13. The two container end plates 11 are spaced apart in the width direction of the container body 1, and the two container side plates 12 are spaced apart in the length direction of the container body 1. The two sides of the two container end plates 11 are connected by the container side plates 12 respectively, and the bottom of the container end plates 11 and the bottom of the container side plates 12 are connected to the container bottom plate 13 respectively. The top of the container end plates 11 is set as a stepped structure that can adapt to the shape of the container top cover 2.

[0045] Specifically, the receiving cavity is located between the container end plate 11, the container side plate 12, and the container bottom plate 13. All the partition structures 14 are distributed between the two container side plates 12. Preferably, the partition structures 14 are parallel to the container side plates 12, and the distance between the partition structures 14 and the container side plates 12 is equal to the distance between adjacent partition structures 14. In addition, the top of the container end plate 11 is also set as a stepped structure, so the top of the container body 1 is also generally stepped, making the shape of the top of the container body 1 fit the shape of the container top cover 2. Moreover, the top of the container body 1 is also generally stepped, so that the receiving area 16 in the middle of the container body 1 can accommodate more wet gel, thereby increasing the capacity of the container body 1 and increasing the amount of wet gel dried at one time, thus improving the drying efficiency.

[0046] In some embodiments, the bottom of the container end plate 11 is arc-shaped, and the container bottom plate 13 is an arc-shaped plate, so that the bottom of the container body 1 is semi-cylindrical. On the one hand, it can adapt to the bottom wall shape of the drying kettle, and on the other hand, it increases the middle depth of the container body 1, thereby increasing the amount of wet gel dried at one time.

[0047] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the interior of the container body 1 is provided with four partition structures 14 spaced apart along the length of the container body 1. The four partition structures 14 are located directly below the two second side plates 2122 and the two third side plates 2123, respectively. The four partition structures 14 divide the accommodating cavity into five non-communicating accommodating areas 16. The five accommodating areas 16 are located below the two first mesh blocks 221, the two second mesh blocks 222 and the one third mesh block 223, respectively.

[0048] Specifically, two first mesh blocks 221, two second mesh blocks 222, and one third mesh block 223 correspond to the five receiving zones 16, respectively, to discharge the gas generated in the corresponding receiving zone 16. The innermost receiving zone 16 is the deepest, the two receiving zones 16 at the edges are the shallowest, and the depth of the remaining two receiving zones 16 is between the two. This arrangement can accommodate the curved top wall of the drying vessel, maximizing the capacity of the container body 1.

[0049] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the partition structure 14 includes two partition plates 141 that are spaced apart along the length of the container body 1. The side of the partition plate 141 is sealed to the container end plate 11, and the bottom of the partition plate 141 is sealed to the container bottom plate 13.

[0050] Specifically, the partition structure 14 includes two partition plates 141, which can increase the heat dissipation area and improve the heat conduction efficiency, thereby improving the drying efficiency.

[0051] likeFigure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the partition structure 14 further includes a plurality of spaced perforations 142, which are disposed on the container end plate 11 and located between two partition plates 141.

[0052] Specifically, after the gel drying fixture is installed in the drying kettle, the hot air device in the drying kettle blows hot air into the container body 1. The hot air can flow through the gap between the perforation 142 on the container end plate 11 and the two partition plates 141, and the partition plates 141 can conduct the heat of the hot air to the wet gel, thus accelerating the drying of the wet gel.

[0053] like Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the partition plate 141 has an arcuate portion 143 that arches toward the adjacent receiving area 16.

[0054] Specifically, by providing an arc-shaped portion 143 on the partition plate 141, the heat dissipation surface of the partition plate 141 is increased, improving the heat conduction efficiency and thus improving the drying efficiency.

[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a connector 15 is provided on the outer side of the first side plate 2121. The connector 15 is used to install on the flipping device. The bottom of the container top cover 2 contacts the top of the connector 15, and the connector 15 can support the container top cover 2.

[0056] This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The above examples are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. The above are only preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that due to the limitations of textual expression, while there are objectively infinite specific structures, those skilled in the art can make several improvements, modifications, or changes without departing from the principles of this utility model, and can also combine the above technical features in an appropriate manner. These improvements, modifications, changes, or combinations, or the direct application of the concept and technical solution of this utility model to other occasions without modification, should all be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
