[0041] Working principle:

[0042] S1: Add the plastic raw material into the drying drum 3, start the power motor 8 and the hot air fan 13. The hot air fan 13 delivers hot air into the rotating shaft 9 and rotating shaft 11 through the hot air pipe 14 and the connecting sleeve. The delivered hot air is discharged through the air outlet pipe 16. The power motor 8 drives the rotating shaft 9 to rotate. The rotating shaft 9 drives the rotating shaft 11 to rotate through the connecting frame 10. The rotating shaft 11 drives the conveying auger 12 to rotate. The rotating conveying auger 12 can lift the plastic raw material inside the drying drum 3. In this way, with the addition of hot air, the plastic raw material can be dried effectively.

[0043] S2: The rotating shaft 11 also drives the stirring blade 15 and the air outlet pipe 16 to rotate. The stirring blade 15 can stir the plastic raw material, and the rotation of the air outlet pipe 16 can make the hot air evenly discharged into the interior of the drying cylinder 3, so that the plastic raw material can be dried quickly.

[0044] S3: After drying, the power motor 8 drives the rotating shaft 9 to rotate in the opposite direction. At this time, the conveying auger 12 can be reversed, and the dried plastic raw material can be discharged from the drying cylinder 3 and enter the twin screw plastic granulator body 1 through the raw material feeding hopper 2 for granulation processing to ensure the quality of plastic product production.

[0045] S4: When the drying mechanism needs to be inspected and maintained later, the fixing screw 6 can be rotated to release the limit on the connecting rod 4, and then the drying cylinder 3 can be pulled to quickly remove it for inspection and maintenance. The operation is convenient.
