[0004] Therefore, the existing drying equipment has high energy consumption and poor flexibility, cannot meet the optimal drying conditions for different materials, resulting in energy waste, high installation and maintenance costs, and is not suitable for modern production line adjustment requirements. There is an urgent need for new drying equipment to improve drying efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and be easy to install and maintain.

[0012] By setting the controller and the electric heating element, the temperature in each drying section can be automatically adjusted according to the data feedback by the sensors, thereby improving the practicability of the device.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the hot air circulation system is composed of centrifugal fans and air ducts, and each centrifugal fan is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the inside of the drying chamber.
[0014] By setting the centrifugal fans and air ducts, it is ensured that the hot air is uniformly distributed in the entire drying section, thereby improving the practicability of the device.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the air outlet end of each centrifugal fan is fixedly connected with an air duct, and one end of each air duct is in communication with the corresponding air inlet.
[0016] By starting the hot air circulation system, the centrifugal fan starts to work, and fresh air enters the drying section through the air duct, thereby improving the practicability of the device.

[0020] By installing the exhaust gas collecting device around the drying chamber, the exhaust gas is preheated by the heat exchanger and enters the fresh air of the next drying process, thereby improving the practicability of the device.
[0021] The beneficial effects of the present application are:
[0022] 1. This energy-saving drying device is designed such that when the hot air circulation system is started, the centrifugal fan starts working, and fresh air enters the drying section through the air duct. The electric heating element is heated in a controlled manner to make the air reach the set temperature and form a hot air flow. The material is placed on the drying rack and passes through each drying section in sequence, receiving segmented countercurrent drying.

[0023] 2. This energy-saving drying device is equipped with built-in sensors to monitor the temperature and humidity changes of each section in real time. The data is transmitted back to the central control system, which dynamically adjusts the operating parameters of the temperature control system and the hot air circulation system according to the current status to ensure the best drying effect. The exhaust gas is collected and preheated by the heat exchanger to reduce energy consumption. After drying is completed, the system is shut down and the dried material is taken out, which greatly improves the practicality of the device. Attached Figure Description

The temperature control system 2 is located on both sides inside the drying chamber 1, the hot air circulation system 3 is located at the bottom inside the drying chamber 1, and the sensor 4 is located at the top inside the drying chamber 1. The interior of the drying chamber 1 is divided into multiple independent drying sections 11, and each drying section 11 is provided with a separate air inlet 111 and an air outlet 112.
[0031] Reference Figures 2-4 The sensor 4 includes a temperature sensor 41 and a humidity sensor 42. Several temperature sensors 41 and humidity sensors 42 are installed in each drying section 11. By installing several temperature sensors 41 and humidity sensors 42 in each drying section 11, environmental parameters can be monitored in real time, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
[0032] Reference Figures 1-4 The temperature control system 2 consists of a controller 21 and an electric heating element 22. The controller 21 is fixedly connected to the exhaust gas collection device 6, and the electric heating element 22 is installed on both sides inside the drying chamber 1. By setting the controller 21 and the electric heating element 22, the temperature in each drying section 11 can be automatically adjusted according to the data fed back by the sensor 4, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
[0033] Reference Figures 1-4 The hot air circulation system 3 consists of a centrifugal fan 31 and an air duct 32. Each centrifugal fan 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drying chamber 1. By setting up the centrifugal fan 31 and the air duct 32, the hot air is evenly distributed throughout the drying section 11, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
[0034] Reference Figures 1-4 Each centrifugal fan 31 has a fixed air duct 32 at its outlet, and one end of each air duct 32 is connected to the corresponding air inlet 111. When the hot air circulation system 3 is started, the centrifugal fan 31 starts to work, and fresh air enters the drying section 11 through the air duct 32, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
[0035] Reference Figures 1-4 The central control system 5 receives data from each sensor 4, and both the temperature control system 2 and the hot air circulation system 3 are controlled by the central control system 5. By receiving data from each sensor 4 and calculating the optimal drying parameters through an algorithm, the central control system 5 sends instructions to the temperature control system 2 and the hot air circulation system 3, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
[0036] Reference Figures 1-3A waste gas collection device 6 is installed around the drying chamber 1. Through the waste gas collection device 6 installed around the drying chamber 1, the waste gas is preheated by the heat exchanger and enters the fresh air for the next drying process, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
[0037] Working principle: The central control system 5 is started, and initial drying parameters such as temperature, humidity, and time are set. The hot air circulation system 3 is started, and the centrifugal fan 31 starts working. Fresh air enters the drying section 11 through the air duct 32. The electric heating element 22 is heated in a controlled manner to make the air reach the set temperature and form a hot air flow. The material is placed on the drying rack and passes through each drying section 11 in sequence, receiving segmented countercurrent drying. The built-in sensor 4 monitors the temperature and humidity changes of each section in real time and transmits the data back to the central control system 5. The central control system 5 dynamically adjusts the operating parameters of the temperature control system 2 and the hot air circulation system 3 according to the current status to ensure the best drying effect. The exhaust gas is collected and preheated by the heat exchanger to reduce energy consumption. After drying is completed, the system is turned off and the dried material is taken out.

The detachable and easy-to-install design greatly reduces the installation and maintenance costs of the equipment and facilitates the overall layout adjustment of the production line. The automated and intelligent control system not only simplifies the operation process but also improves production efficiency and reduces the possibility of manual intervention. By utilizing waste heat recovery technology, energy consumption is significantly reduced, meeting the requirements of energy conservation and environmental protection.
