[0033] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] This utility model provides an overall structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of a dryer for producing high-activity gluten powder, including:

[0035] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0036] A dryer for producing high-activity gluten powder includes a housing 1. A drying assembly 6 is installed inside the housing 1. The drying assembly 6 includes a nozzle 610, with a nozzle 64 fitted to the bottom of the nozzle 610. A heating chamber 61 is formed inside the housing 1. The top of the nozzle 610 is inserted into the heating chamber 61. A square groove 62 is formed on one side of the heating chamber 61. A fan 66 is bolted to the inner wall of the square groove 62. A power supply board 67 is installed on the inner wall of the heating chamber 61. A heating wire 65 is inserted into one end of the power supply board 67. A temperature sensor 63 is installed on the inner wall of the housing 1. A PLC is installed on one side of the temperature sensor 63. The PLC is electrically... A temperature sensor 63 and a power supply board 67 are connected. A fan 69 is installed on the inner wall of the heating chamber 61. A third motor 68 is inserted into the shaft of the fan 69. A control panel 4 is installed on one side of the housing 1. A stirring assembly 7 is installed below the drying assembly 6. External air is drawn into the heating chamber 61 by the fan 66. The heating wire 65 is powered by the power supply board 67, thereby heating the air inside the heating chamber 61. The third motor 68 drives the fan 69 to rotate, so that the nozzle 610 can better receive the heated gas and spray it out through the nozzle 64, thus facilitating a better drying effect for the gluten powder.

[0037] It is worth noting that, in order to better screen the solid solids generated during the drying process, the stirring assembly 7 specifically includes a first motor 75, the output shaft of the first motor 75 is sleeved with a stirring rod 72, a sieve plate 73 is provided below the stirring rod 72, a filter screen 711 is provided on the inner wall of the sieve plate 73, and a screening block 74 is provided on the top of the filter screen 711. The design of the screening block 74 facilitates better screening of the solid solids generated during the drying process, and the solids are screened through the filter screen 711.

[0038] Next, in order to better regulate the temperature and heating status inside the chamber 1, the control panel 4 is electrically connected to the PLC. By adjusting the PLC through the control panel 4, it is possible to better regulate the temperature and heating status inside the chamber 1.

[0039] Meanwhile, in order to provide better support for the box body 1, specifically, the side of the box body 1 is provided with a feed port 3, the bottom of the box body 1 is provided with a discharge port 5, and the bottom of the box body 1 is connected by bolts with multiple symmetrically distributed support legs 2. By symmetrically placing the support legs 2, the box body 1 can be better supported.

[0040] Furthermore, in order to achieve a more uniform drying effect, there are multiple nozzles 64, which are evenly distributed. Through multiple evenly distributed nozzles 64, the interior of the chamber 1 can achieve a more uniform drying effect when using gas drying.

[0041] It is worth noting that, in order to facilitate better processing of gluten, springs 710 are welded to both sides of the sieve plate 73. A groove 79 is welded to one end of the spring 710. A slider 77 is bolted to one side of the sieve plate 73. A second motor 78 is installed on one side of the slider 77. A lead screw 76 is sleeved on the output shaft of the second motor 78. The slider 77 is sleeved on the surface of the lead screw 76. The second motor 78 drives the lead screw 76 to rotate, so that the slider 77 and the spring 710 can drive the sieve plate 73 to move horizontally on the inner wall of the groove 79, thereby facilitating better processing of gluten.

[0042] Finally, in order to better filter the processed gluten powder, filter plates 71 are set below the sieve plate 73. There are multiple filter plates 71, which are evenly distributed. The mesh size of the filter plates 71 increases from top to bottom. By using filter plates 71 with different mesh sizes, it is easier to filter the processed gluten powder.

[0043] In addition, the circuits, electronic components and modules involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. The content protected by this utility model does not involve any improvement to the internal structure and method.

[0044] The device or equipment models mentioned in this article may be as follows:

[0045] First motor: YB2-132S-4H;

[0046] Second motor: Y630;

[0047] Third motor: STEP-085-17;

[0048] Fan: SFB0212HH.

[0049] Combination Figures 1-5 The specific usage process of the dryer for producing highly active gluten powder according to this embodiment is as follows:

[0050] 1: When using this high-activity gluten powder production dryer, the device needs to be moved to a suitable position by moving the support leg 2. After the gluten powder to be dried is poured in from the feed inlet 3, the drying component 6 and the stirring component 7 inside the box 1 are started, and the processed gluten powder is received at the discharge outlet 5.

[0051] 2: When the device needs to dry gluten powder with various temperature requirements, after the machine is started, the fan 66 is turned on along with the machine. The operator can operate the PLC through the control panel 4 to adjust the temperature sensed by the temperature sensor 63. The fan 66, which is bolted inside the square groove 62, draws in air and enters the heating chamber 61. By adjusting the PLC, the total number of energized power supplies on the power supply board 67 can be increased or decreased, thereby causing the temperature of the air heated by the heating wire 65 to drop or rise. This allows the temperature of the gas inside the heating chamber 61 to be adjusted according to specific requirements. The third motor 68 drives the fan 69, which draws in the gas inside the heating chamber 61 through the nozzle 610 and sprays it out through the evenly distributed nozzles 64. This facilitates more uniform drying of the gluten powder and allows for adjustment of drying requirements with various temperature requirements. To a certain extent, this device is quite practical for drying at various temperatures.

[0052] 3: When the device needs to fully stir and sieve the dried gluten powder, after the machine is started, the third motor 68 is turned on along with the machine. The first motor 75 drives the stirring rod 72 to rotate and stir the gluten powder, so that the stirred and dried gluten powder falls onto the surface of the sieve plate 73. The second motor 78 drives the lead screw 76 to rotate, so that the slider 77 drives the sieve plate 73 and the spring 710 to cooperate, which facilitates vibration sieving on the inner wall of the chute 79. Through the sieve block 74 and the filter screen 711, the solid lumps and clumps generated during the stirring process can be sieved by the sieve block 74. Since the mesh size of the filter screen 711 and the filter plate 71 decreases from top to bottom, the processed gluten powder can be sieved better, and the quality of the processed gluten powder can be maintained to a certain extent.

[0053] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
