[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely represents selected embodiments of the utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0031] Please see Figure 1-10 The workpiece drying device includes a drying box 1 and a workpiece conveying device 2.

[0032] The drying oven 1 is equipped with a workpiece conveying device 2 arranged along the front-to-back direction.

[0033] The drying chamber 1 is rectangular in shape and is fixedly mounted on a support 101. The drying chamber 1 has an inlet 102 and an outlet 103 at its front and rear, respectively. Sliding doors 3 are installed on the inlet 102 and outlet 103, each including a door leaf 301 and a door leaf cylinder 303. The door leaf cylinder 303 is fixedly mounted on the top of the drying chamber 1, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the top of the door leaf 301. The door leaf cylinder 303 can drive the door leaf 301 to move up and down. During drying operations, the door leaf 301 lowers to reduce the escape of hot air from the inlet 102 and outlet 103.

[0034] At least two guide wheels 302 are provided on both the left and right sides of the door leaf 301, and a guide rail 304 is provided on the outer side of the guide wheel 302. The guide rail 304 is fixedly installed on the drying box 1.

[0035] Specifically, the guide wheel 302 is provided with a guide groove 305, and the guide rail 304 is located in the guide groove 305. The guide groove 305 and the guide rail 304 cooperate to prevent the door leaf 301 from moving back and forth.

[0036] An air inlet pipe 104 is connected to the center of the top of the drying chamber 1, and a return air pipe 105 is connected to the front and rear of the bottom of the drying chamber 1. The return air pipe 105 is located close to the feed inlet 102 and the discharge outlet 103, so that air near the feed inlet 102 and the discharge outlet 103 will be drawn in by the return air pipe 105, further reducing the escape of hot air from the feed inlet 102 and the discharge outlet 103. The return air pipe 105 is connected to the hot air blower 4 through a pipeline, and the air outlet of the hot air blower 4 is connected to the air inlet pipe 104 through a pipeline.

[0037] In this solution, the drying oven 1 is also equipped with a baffle plate 401. The baffle plate 401 is triangular in shape and is located directly below the opening of the air inlet pipe 104.

[0038] Meanwhile, in this solution, the drying box 1 is equipped with two sets of guide fans 402. The two sets of guide fans 402 are arranged symmetrically in the center and are used to blow the hot air that is guided to the front and rear positions inside the drying box 1 toward the center position inside the drying box 1.

[0039] The hot air generated by the hot air blower 4 enters the drying chamber 1 through the air inlet pipe 104, and then is guided to the front and rear positions inside the drying chamber 1 by the guide plate 401; the guide fan 402 blows the hot air guided to the front and rear positions inside the drying chamber 1 toward the center position inside the drying chamber 1; the workpiece is dried by the hot air, and then the cold air enters the hot air blower 4 again through the return air pipe 105.

[0040] The workpiece conveying device 2 includes a conveying bracket 201; the conveying bracket 201 is located inside the drying oven 1, and the front and rear ends of the conveying bracket 201 extend out of the inlet 102 and the outlet 103, respectively.

[0041] The conveying bracket 201 has a first rotating shaft 202 and a second rotating shaft 203 rotatably mounted at its front and rear ends, respectively. A transmission chain 204 is connected between the first rotating shaft 202 and the second rotating shaft 203 via a sprocket drive. There are two transmission chains 204, and several storage plates 205 are fixedly connected between the two transmission chains 204.

[0042] Several hanging rods 206 are also vertically fixed to the top of the shelf 205. The workpiece is placed directly on the hanging rods 206, which helps to reduce the contact area of ​​the workpiece and makes most of the surface of the workpiece suspended, which is beneficial for drying.

[0043] Meanwhile, in this solution, the inner side of the conveying bracket 201 is also provided with a horizontal support part 207 for supporting the transmission chain 204 and preventing the middle section of the transmission chain 204 from sinking; the horizontal support part 207 is located below the transmission chain 204.

[0044] The workpiece conveying device 2 also includes a power unit 210, which includes a horizontal cylinder 211. The horizontal cylinder 211 is horizontally fixedly installed on the inner wall of the drying chamber 1. A horizontal slider 212 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the horizontal cylinder 211. The horizontal slider 212 is slidably arranged on a slide rail 213, which is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the drying chamber 1. A vertical cylinder 214 is fixedly installed on the horizontal slider 212. A pick tooth 215 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the vertical cylinder 214.

[0045] When the vertical cylinder 214 extends, the inserter 215 descends and inserts into the transmission chain 204. Then the horizontal cylinder 211 extends and drives the inserter 215 to move through the horizontal slider 212. At this time, the inserter 215 drives the transmission chain 204 to move, thereby driving the shelf 205 to move.

[0046] In this solution, since the drying operation requires the workpiece to stay in the drying box 1 for a long time, the workpiece conveying device 2 does not need to operate at high speed. Therefore, in this solution, a cylinder is used as the power source, which can also meet the requirement of the workpiece conveying device 2 to slowly convey the workpiece.

[0047] When using this utility model, the workpiece is hung on the hanging rod 206, and then the power device 210 is started. The vertical cylinder 214 extends, and the inserting tooth 215 descends and inserts into the transmission chain 204. Then the horizontal cylinder 211 extends and drives the inserting tooth 215 to move through the horizontal slider 212. At this time, the inserting tooth 215 drives the transmission chain 204 to move, and then the workpiece on the shelf 205 is sent into the drying oven 1.

[0048] After the workpiece enters the drying oven 1, the door leaf 301 of the sliding door 3 falls down to reduce the escape of hot air from the inlet 102 and the outlet 103.

[0049] When the hot air blower 4 is started, the hot air generated by the hot air blower 4 enters the drying chamber 1 through the air inlet pipe 104, and then is guided to the front and rear positions inside the drying chamber 1 by the guide plate 401; the guide fan 402 blows the hot air guided to the front and rear positions inside the drying chamber 1 toward the center position inside the drying chamber 1; the workpiece is dried by the hot air.
