[0038] Example 1

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1-6 A ceramic blank drying device includes: a drying chamber 1, a heating device 2 mounted on the upper side of the drying chamber 1, a conveying pipe 3 fixedly connected to the output end of the heating device 2, a base 4 inside the drying chamber 1, multiple fixing frames 5 mounted on the upper side of the base 4, multiple placement plates 6 slidably fitted on the fixing frames 5, multiple storage slots 7 inside the placement plates 6, a sliding plate 8 slidably and elastically fitted on the inner wall of the storage slot 7, a trapezoidal locking block 9 fixedly connected to one side of the sliding plate 8, multiple trapezoidal slots 10 on one side of the fixing frames 5, two mounting slots 11 inside the placement plates 6, and a driving mechanism 12 inside the mounting slots 11. The lower end of the conveying pipe 3 extends into the interior of the drying chamber 1, and the trapezoidal locking block 9 cooperates with the trapezoidal slots 10. A strip groove 16 is formed on the lower side of the inner wall of the drying chamber 1, and multiple casters 17 that cooperate with the strip groove 16 are mounted on the lower side of the base 4. Guide plates 18 are fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the drying oven 1. The lower end of the conveying pipe 3 passes through the upper side of the guide plate 18. An exhaust pipe 19 is installed on the upper side of the drying oven 1. A door 20 is rotatably fitted on one side of the drying oven 1.

[0040] Implementation process: During use, the ceramic blank is placed on the placement plate 6. With the cooperation of the moving wheels 17 and the strip groove 16, the ceramic blank enters the drying chamber 1. Under the action of the heating device 2, hot air is transported into the drying chamber 1. The heating device 2 adopts electric heating or gas heating, which can be selected according to the actual situation. The heating device 2 is set at the top of the drying chamber 1. The heat is transferred to the air in the drying chamber 1 through the heat exchanger. The hot air is transported by the conveying pipe 3 and guided by the guide plate 18, flowing to the lower side of the interior of the drying chamber 1. Since the hot air has a low density, it will naturally flow upward. During the rising process, the hot air will pass through the ceramic blank placed on the upper side of the placement plate 6, transferring heat to the blank and causing the moisture in it to evaporate. The evaporated moisture will be discharged from the exhaust pipe 19 at the top as the hot air rises.

[0041] Benefits of implementation: It can form a more stable hot air convection path, making the drying process more orderly.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] The drive mechanism 12 includes a take-up roller shaft 121 rotatably engaged with the inner wall of the mounting groove 11. Two gears 122 are mounted on the take-up roller shaft 121. Two traction ropes 123 are wound and fixedly wound on the take-up roller shaft 121. Two racks 124 are slidably engaged with the upper side of the placement plate 6. A fixing plate 125 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the two racks 124, and a handle 126 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 125. One end of each traction rope 123 is fixedly connected to one side of the slide plate 8, and the racks 124 engage with the gears 122. Two limiting plates 13 are fixedly connected to the lower side of the handle 126, slidably engaged with the inner wall of the mounting groove 11. Limiting grooves 14 are formed on both sides of the inner wall of the mounting groove 11. Limiting blocks 15 are fixedly connected to the opposite side of the limiting plates 13 and racks 124, and the limiting blocks 15 slidably engage with the inner wall of the limiting grooves 14.

[0044] Implementation process: When placing ceramic blanks, the distance between the placement plates 6 is adjusted according to the height and size of each layer of ceramic blanks. When it is necessary to adjust the placement plate 6 upward, simply drag the placement plate 6 upward, causing the trapezoidal block 9 to be squeezed and slide into the storage groove 7, separating from the trapezoidal slot 10. After sliding to the corresponding position, under the action of the spring in the storage groove 7, the trapezoidal block 9 is driven to connect with the corresponding trapezoidal slot 10, realizing the height adjustment of the placement plate 6. When it is necessary to adjust the placement plate 6 downward, pull the handle 126. The handle 126 drives the rack 124 to move upward, causing the rack 124 to drive the gear 122 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 122 drives the winding roller shaft 121 to collect the traction rope 123, thereby pulling the two sliding plates 8 to separate the trapezoidal block 9 from the trapezoidal slot 10, allowing the placement plate 6 to slide downward on the fixed frame 5.

[0045] Benefits of implementation: The placement plate 6 can be adjusted automatically according to the ceramic blank placed on it, which improves the space utilization of the equipment, makes the air circulation more uniform, and facilitates the inspection and cleaning of the placement plate 6.

[0046] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Therefore, any modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present utility model, and all technical solutions and improvements that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention, are covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
