[0017] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.
[0018] This application discloses a granulator with a drying structure, as shown in the embodiments below. Figures 1-2The system includes an extrusion pipe 1, with a template 5 fixedly mounted on the output end face of the extrusion pipe 1. The outer wall of the template 5 is provided with multiple circumferentially distributed discharge holes 6. The template 5 is fixedly connected to a discharge trough 7, which is connected to a second feed hopper 9. The second feed hopper 9 is fixedly connected to a drying pipe 8. The extrusion pipe 1 has a rotating rod 13 inside, with a conveying auger 14 fixedly wound around the outer wall of the rotating rod 13. One end of the rotating rod 13 passes through the extrusion pipe 1 and extends outward to connect to the output end of a first motor 3. The outer wall of the extrusion pipe 1 is fixedly provided with a first feed hopper 2. The raw material enters the interior of the extrusion pipe 1 through the first feed hopper 2 and is mixed and extruded under the action of the conveying auger 14. The extruded raw material is formed into granules through the discharge holes 6 and enters the interior of the second feed hopper 9 through the discharge trough 7.
[0019] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The drying tube 8 has a rotating cylindrical rod 19 inside. Both ends of the cylindrical rod 19 are fitted with first rings 15 via bearings. The first rings 15 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the drying tube 8. The outer wall of the first rings 15 is fixedly connected to a ring tube 16 via a support rod. Five circumferentially distributed branch pipes 17 are fixedly arranged between two ring tubes 16. Multiple equidistant air outlet pipes 18 are fixedly arranged on the outer wall of the branch pipes 17. Multiple equidistant stirring blades 20 are fixedly fitted between two first rings 15 and on the outer wall of the cylindrical rod 19. One end of the cylindrical rod 19 passes through the drying tube 8 and extends outward to connect to the output end of a second motor 11. A discharge port 21 is provided through the outer wall of the drying tube 8. A cover plate 22 is hinged inside the discharge port 21. An air inlet pipe 10 is fixedly inserted through the outer wall of the drying tube 8. The ring pipe 16, branch pipe 17 and air outlet pipe 18 are connected. The outer walls of the extrusion pipe 1 and the drying pipe 8 are respectively fixed with two first support plates 4 and two second support plates 12. Hot air is delivered to the inside of the branch pipe 17 through the air inlet pipe 10, and then to the inside of each branch pipe 17 through the ring pipe 16. Finally, it is discharged through the air outlet pipe 18. Under the action of hot air, the raw material particles in the drying pipe 8 are dried. The dried particles are discharged through the discharge port 21. During the particle drying process, the output end of the second motor 11 drives the round rod 19 to rotate. The rotation of the round rod 19 drives the stirring blade 20 to rotate. The rotation of the stirring blade 20 can stir the particles in the drying pipe 8, thereby accelerating the particle drying speed to achieve automated operation and the preparation of high-quality particle products.
[0020] The implementation principle of a granulator with a drying structure according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: During use, the raw material enters the interior of the extrusion pipe 1 through the first feed hopper 2, and is mixed and extruded under the action of the conveying auger 14. The extruded raw material is formed into granules through the discharge hole 6 and enters the interior of the second feed hopper 9 through the discharge trough 7. Then, hot air is conveyed to the interior of the branch pipe 17 through the air inlet pipe 10, and then conveyed to the interior of each branch pipe 17 through the ring pipe 16. Finally, it is discharged through the air outlet pipe 18. Under the action of hot air, the raw material granules in the drying pipe 8 are dried. The dried granules are discharged through the discharge port 21. During the granule drying process, the output end of the second motor 11 drives the round rod 19 to rotate. The rotation of the round rod 19 drives the stirring blade 20 to rotate. The rotation of the stirring blade 20 can stir the granules in the drying pipe 8, thereby accelerating the granule drying speed.
