Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying technology, and in particular to a tunnel drying device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, graphene has attracted widespread attention due to its unique structure and excellent properties, such as high thermal conductivity and high electrical conductivity. It has good application prospects in the fields of heat dissipation of high-power microelectronic devices, heat-resistant sealing materials, and heating elements.

[0003] Before processing, graphene thermal conductive sheets usually need to be dried to avoid excessive moisture in the raw materials, which would affect the processing of graphene thermal conductive sheets.

[0004] Traditional drying equipment often fails to dry raw materials evenly, causing them to accumulate inside the equipment. This results in higher humidity in the center of the raw material, lower drying efficiency, longer drying time, and negatively impacts the subsequent processing of graphene thermal conductive sheets.

[0030] To better explain and facilitate understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4As shown, a tunnel drying device of this utility model includes a base platform 5, a drying tunnel, a conveying mechanism, a converging component, and a dispersing component. The drying tunnel is installed on the upper part of the base platform 5. The conveying mechanism is installed on the upper surface of the base platform 5. Several converging components are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the conveying mechanism. Several dispersing components are arranged on the conveying mechanism. The dispersing components and the converging components are arranged alternately.

[0032] The converging assembly includes a first rotation drive 18, a rotating shaft 16, a swing arm 7, and a converging component 8. One side of the swing arm 7 is rotatably connected to the conveying mechanism via the rotating shaft 16. The first rotation drive 18 is drivenly connected to the rotating shaft 16. The other side of the swing arm 7 is provided with the converging component 8.

[0033] The dispersing assembly includes a mounting frame 13, a second rotation drive 14, a rotating plate 15, and dispersing rods 12. The mounting frame 13 is connected to the conveying mechanism. The rotating plate 15 is disposed below the mounting frame 13. The second rotation drive 14 is drivenly connected to the upper surface of the rotating plate 15. A plurality of dispersing rods 12 are disposed on the lower surface of the rotating plate 15.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the raw material of the graphene thermal conductive sheet needs to be dried during the processing of the graphene thermal conductive sheet, the raw material can be placed on the conveying mechanism. Then, the conveying mechanism drives the raw material to be conveyed in the drying tunnel. At the same time, the raw material is dried through the drying tunnel. Then, the first rotating drive 18 adjusts the angle of the swing arm 7 through the rotating shaft 16, and drives the converging component 8 to converge the raw material through the swing arm 7. Then, the second rotating drive 14 is run, which drives the rotating plate 15 to rotate. The rotating plate 15 disperses the converged raw material through the dispersing rod 12. The raw material is converged and dispersed multiple times during the drying process, so that the raw material is dried more evenly.

[0035] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism includes a side baffle 10, a conveying shaft 20, a conveyor belt 4, and a third rotation drive 9. A side baffle 10 is fixedly installed on both sides of the base 5. One side of each side baffle 10 is rotatably connected to one of the conveying shafts 20, and the other side of each side baffle 10 is rotatably connected to another conveying shaft 20. The conveyor belt 4 is sleeved on the outside of the two conveying shafts 20, and the third rotation drive 9 is drivenly connected to one of the conveying shafts 20.

[0036] As can be seen from the above description, when it is necessary to transport raw materials, the raw materials can be placed on the conveyor belt 4, and then the third rotation drive 9 is operated, so that the third rotation drive 9 drives the conveyor belt 4 to run through the conveyor shaft 20, and transports the raw materials through the conveyor belt 4, while the side baffle 10 prevents the raw materials from leaking to the side.

[0037] Furthermore, the rotating shaft 16 is rotatably connected to the side baffle 10.

[0038] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial for better installation of the swing arm 7.

[0039] Furthermore, the converging component 8 is slidably connected to the conveyor belt 4.

[0040] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial for the converging component 8 to better converge the raw materials on the surface of the conveyor belt 4.

[0041] Furthermore, the dispersing rod 12 is positioned above the conveyor belt 4.

[0042] As can be seen from the above description, the dispersing rod 12 is more effective at dispersing the raw materials on the surface of the conveyor belt 4.

[0043] Furthermore, both sides of the mounting bracket 13 are respectively fixedly connected to a side baffle 10.

[0044] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial for better installation of mounting bracket 13.

[0045] Furthermore, the drying tunnel includes a tunnel chamber 1 and several dryers 2. The lower part of the tunnel chamber 1 is fixedly connected to the base platform 5, and several dryers 2 are arranged on the upper part of the tunnel chamber 1. All dryers 2 are arranged above the conveyor belt 4.

[0046] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to partially enclose the area above the bottom platform 5 through the tunnel chamber 1 and dry the raw materials through the dryer 2.

[0047] Furthermore, it also includes a discharge slide 3, which is fixedly connected to the side baffle 10, and the discharge slide 3 is inclined downward.

[0048] As can be seen from the above description, the raw materials that are conducive to drying are discharged through the discharge slide 3.

[0049] Furthermore, it also includes a centralized discharge assembly. The centralized discharge assembly is provided on the side of the conveyor belt 4 near the discharge slide 3, and the two centralized discharge assemblies are arranged opposite each other.

[0050] The centralized discharge assembly includes a linear drive 11, a mounting plate 19, and a central plate 17. The linear drive 11 is connected to the side baffles 10. The mounting plate 19 is provided on one side of one side baffle 10 near the other side baffle 10. The linear drive 11 is linearly driven connected to one side of the mounting plate 19, and the central plate 17 is fixedly installed on the other side of the mounting plate 19.

[0051] As can be seen from the above description, it is advantageous to adjust the position of the concentrator plate 17 by means of the linear drive component 11, and to concentrate the raw materials to be discharged by means of the concentrator plate 17, so that the raw materials are not easily leaked when discharged.

[0052] Furthermore, it also includes a control switch 6, which is electrically connected to the drying tunnel, the conveying mechanism, the converging component, and the dispersing component, respectively.

[0053] As can be seen from the above description, it makes it more convenient for users to control the overall device.
