Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of colloidal microcrystalline cellulose processing technology, specifically relating to a drying device for colloidal microcrystalline cellulose processing. Background Technology
[0002] Colloidal microcrystalline cellulose (CMCC) is an important industrial raw material widely used in food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and other fields. Its main functions include thickening, emulsifying, and improving texture. However, drying is a crucial step in the production of CMCC, directly affecting the quality and performance of the final product. Traditional drying methods, such as air drying or simple hot air drying, suffer from low drying efficiency, high energy consumption, and inconsistent product quality.
[0003] Existing drying equipment still suffers from problems such as complex structure, high maintenance costs, and inconvenient operation. This is especially true for materials like colloidal microcrystalline cellulose, which have high requirements for drying conditions. Ensuring both high-efficiency drying and the reliability and ease of use of the equipment remains a challenge. Utility Model Content

[0023] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the feed pipe is located above the mesh, and the air volume of the plurality of air outlet pipes is consistent.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0025] 1. In this solution, the equipment achieves efficient heat transfer and distribution through the rational layout of the hot air blower, drying chamber, and connecting body. The hot air generated by the hot air blower enters the drying chamber evenly through the air outlet duct, ensuring that the material receives uniform heating treatment.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0034] Example 1
[0035] Please see Figures 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0036] A drying apparatus for processing colloidal microcrystalline cellulose includes:
[0037] Bracket 1;
[0038] Drying box 2 and hot air blower 9 are both fixedly connected to the upper end of bracket 1;
[0039] Connecting body 10, connecting body 10 between drying oven 2 and hot air blower 9;
[0040] Cover plate 4 is connected to the upper end of drying oven 2 by bolts and threads;
[0041] Motor 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of cover plate 4;
[0042] Feed pipe 5 is fixedly connected inside cover plate 4 and located inside drying oven 2;
[0043] Rotating rod 16 is rotatably connected inside drying oven 2, and rotating rod 16 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of motor 3;
[0044] The mesh 15 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod 16;
[0045] Multiple air outlet pipes 11, one end of each of the multiple air outlet pipes 11 is connected to the hot air blower 9, and the other end passes through the connecting body 10 and is located inside the drying oven 2;
[0046] Collection box 12 is located inside drying oven 2;
[0047] Slide 13 is provided on one side of the drying oven 2;
[0048] Handle 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the collection box 12.
[0049] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the bracket 1 supports the drying chamber 2 and the hot air blower 9. The drying chamber 2 is lined with high-temperature resistant ceramic fiber, and the top is fixed with a cover plate 4 by bolts. The hot air blower 9 is equipped with a variable frequency speed control function, and the air outlet is connected to multiple air outlet pipes 11. The hot air is evenly distributed into the drying chamber 2 through the connecting body 10. The connecting body 10 optimizes the hot air flow path and reduces eddy current loss. The feed pipe 5 is used to put in colloidal microcrystalline cellulose. The cover plate 4 is used to install the motor 3. The motor 3 directly drives the rotating rod 16 through a coupling. The cooperation between the rotating rod 16 and the screen 15 enhances the material dispersion effect. The screen 15 facilitates the downward flow of the dried colloidal microcrystalline cellulose. Pipe 11 can bring hot air from hot air blower 9 into drying chamber 2. Collection box 12 has a drawer-type structure for easy storage of dried colloidal microcrystalline cellulose. The air blown out by a row of air ducts 11 at the bottom can further dry the colloidal microcrystalline cellulose at the bottom. Slide 13 facilitates the entry of collection box 12, and handle 14 can pull out collection box 12. The hot air is evenly distributed and fully stirred, which significantly improves drying efficiency. The design of multiple air ducts 11 ensures that the hot air comes into uniform contact with the colloidal microcrystalline cellulose, avoiding uneven drying. This drying equipment has the advantages of high efficiency, uniformity, convenience and stability in the processing of colloidal microcrystalline cellulose, which significantly improves the drying effect and operating experience.
[0050] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-4 The hot air blower 9 and the connecting body 10 are connected by bolts, and the connecting body 10 is a sealed cavity.
[0051] In this embodiment, the design of connecting the hot air blower 9 and the connecting body 10 with bolts to form a sealed cavity not only improves the overall performance of the equipment, but also enhances safety, stability and maintainability. It is very suitable for the efficient drying and processing of colloidal microcrystalline cellulose. The cavity design of the connecting body 10 makes the device lighter and facilitates the placement of the air outlet duct 11.
[0052] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-4 The feed pipe 5 is equipped with a funnel 6.
[0053] In this embodiment: the funnel 6 facilitates the even pouring of materials and also prevents materials from falling.
[0054] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-4 Stabilizers 7 are fixedly connected to both the upper and lower ends of the connecting body 10. The lower stabilizer 7 is connected to the bracket 1, and the upper stabilizer 7 binds the connecting body 10 and the hot air blower 9.
[0055] In this embodiment: the lower stabilizer 7 is connected to the support 1, and the upper stabilizer 7 binds the connecting body 10 and the hot air blower 9 to enhance the stability of the overall structure.
[0056] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-4 Both ends of the connecting body 10 are adhesively connected with heat insulation cotton 8.
[0057] In this embodiment, the heat insulation cotton 8 can concentrate the heat present in the connecting body 10, preventing the heat from being applied too quickly and resulting in insufficient heat in the drying oven 2.
[0058] Please refer to the details. Figures 1-4 The feed pipe 5 is located above the mesh 15, and the air volume of the multiple air outlet pipes 11 is the same.
[0059] In this embodiment, when colloidal microcrystalline cellulose enters the drying chamber 2 through the feed pipe 5, it can fall directly onto the upper side of the sieve 15. The consistent airflow from the air outlet pipe 11 ensures that the device does not experience inconsistencies during drying, thus guaranteeing stable operation of the material.
[0060] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: Colloidal microcrystalline cellulose is fed into the sieve 15 inside the drying chamber 2 through the feed pipe 5. The motor 3 is started, driving the rotating rod 16 to rotate and stir the colloidal microcrystalline cellulose. The hot air blower 9 is started, and hot air enters the drying chamber 2 evenly and in a sealed manner through the connecting body 10 and the air outlet pipe 11. The colloidal microcrystalline cellulose is dried evenly under the action of hot air and stirring. The dried colloidal microcrystalline cellulose falls into the collection box 12 through the sieve 15. The collection box 12 is removed through the slide 13, completing the drying process.
[0061] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
