Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of drying equipment, specifically relates to a microsphere spray drying equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Spray drying is a method of applying systematic technology to material drying, in which dilute material is atomized in a drying chamber and water is rapidly vaporized in contact with hot air, thus obtaining a dried product. Therefore, spray drying is an ideal process when the particle size distribution, residual moisture content, bulk density and particle shape of the finished product must meet precise standards.

[0003] In the use process of the existing spray dryer, some mist droplets are difficult to contact with hot air during the drying process, which leads to a decrease in drying uniformity. Some mist droplets that do not fully contact with hot air are discharged with some dried material particles, resulting in a larger particle humidity. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a spray dryer with uniform drying to solve the above problems. SUMMARY

[0004] The utility model mainly solves the technical problem existing in the prior art, and provides a microsphere spray drying equipment.

[0008] Preferably, the lower surface of the crushed block is an arc surface that matches the curvature of the filter screen, and the edge of the crushed block is beveled.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By setting multiple sets of hot air pipes on the inner wall of the cylinder and aligning the hot air nozzles on the pipes with the material nozzles for spraying the material, the hot air nozzles at different heights on the upper side can simultaneously heat the material sprayed from the material nozzle, achieving rapid drying and increasing the dryness of the particles; by aligning the hot air nozzles on the lower side of the hot air pipes with the stirring shaft, the particles dried at the top will continue to be heated and dried during their descent, resulting in better dryness of the finally discharged particles.

[0014] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0015] Example: A microsphere spray drying device, such as Figs. 1-3As shown, the device includes a cylindrical body 1, with a top cover 2 and a bottom cover 3 at its upper and lower ends, respectively. A drive motor 4 is mounted on the top of the top cover 2, and a stirring shaft 5 is located in the middle of the top cover 2. The stirring shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the top cover 2, while the drive motor 4 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 5. A filter screen 6 is located at the lower end of the interior of the cylindrical body 1, with its edge fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylindrical body 1. The middle of the filter screen 6 is recessed downwards. A crushing block 7 is located at the bottom of the stirring shaft 5. Multiple sets of hot air are evenly spaced on the inner wall of the cylindrical body 1. Each set of hot air pipes 8 has multiple hot air nozzles 9 arranged in a ring array along the axis of the cylinder 1. The multiple sets of hot air pipes 8 are interconnected and extend to the outside of the cylinder 1. The lower end of the top cover 2 is provided with a set of liquid inlet pipes 10. The inlet of the liquid inlet pipes 10 is located outside the top cover 2. Multiple material nozzles 11 are arranged in a ring array on the liquid inlet pipes 10. The material nozzles 11 are set towards the bottom of the cylinder 1. The hot air nozzles 9 on the upper side of the hot air pipes 8 are all set towards the material nozzles 11, and the hot air nozzles 9 on the lower side of the hot air pipes 8 are all set towards the stirring shaft 5.

[0016] The top cover 2 is provided with an exhaust pipe 12; there is a gap between the bottom of the crushing block 7 and the filter screen 6; the lower surface of the crushing block 7 is an arc surface with the same curvature as the filter screen 6, and a bevel 13 is provided at the edge of the crushing block 7.

[0017] The principle of this invention: The material enters through the liquid inlet pipe 10 and is evenly sprayed out from the material nozzle 11. Hot air enters through the hot air pipe 8 and is sprayed out from the hot air nozzle 9. The upper hot air nozzle 9 is directly aligned with the material nozzle 11. When the material is sprayed out, it comes into direct contact with the hot air, achieving rapid drying and free fall. When some mist-like droplets that have not fully contacted the hot air fall, the lower hot air nozzle 9 will continue to heat and dry them, making the final formed particles relatively dry. After drying, the particles will fall onto the filter screen 6. Particles of suitable diameter will fall directly onto the bottom cover 3 for discharge. Larger particles will be crushed by the rotation of the crushing block 7 and will eventually fall onto the bottom cover 3 for discharge.

[0018] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely representative examples of this utility model. Obviously, this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments and can have many variations. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model should be considered to fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
