Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating dryers, and more particularly to an electroplating dryer. Background Technology
[0002] Electroplating dryers have a wide range of applications in the electroplating industry. For example, in the treatment of electroplating sludge, electroplating dryers can reduce the moisture content of sludge from 75% to 85% to below 30%, thereby achieving weight and volume reduction and harmless treatment of the sludge. Electroplating dryers typically employ advanced heat transfer and dehumidification technologies, which can efficiently transfer heat to the sludge or workpiece and quickly remove moisture, thus shortening drying time and saving energy.
[0003] In related technologies, when drying sludge, electroplating dryers are driven by motors. Inside the dryer is a rotating drying drum with multiple tumblers. These tumblers and tumblers cause the sludge to tumble, and a heating system dries the moisture inside the sludge, accelerating the drying process. Because the drying drum rotates continuously, workers need to insert shovels deep into the drum when emptying the sludge; otherwise, the sludge will fall out through the inlet during rotation, causing sludge accumulation at the inlet. The drum is also prone to contact with the shovel during rotation, potentially causing injury to workers and posing a hazard in use.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an electroplating dryer to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the technical problem that workers need to insert shovels deep into the drying drum, otherwise sludge will fall out through the inlet during the drum's rotation, causing sludge accumulation at the inlet and the drum is also prone to contact with the shovel during rotation, potentially causing injury to workers, this utility model provides an electroplating dryer.
[0006] The present invention provides an electroplating dryer, comprising: an electroplating dryer body, a bracket fixedly connected to one side of the electroplating dryer body, a support frame fixedly connected above the bracket, and the support frame being located at the feeding end of the electroplating dryer body;
[0007] A fixed box is movably mounted on one side of the support frame. A guide hopper is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed box, and a fixed platform is fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide hopper. Two baffles are fixedly connected to one side of the fixed platform. One end of each baffle extends into the interior of the electroplating dryer body. A conveyor belt is movably mounted inside the two baffles. A motor is fixedly connected to one side of one of the baffles, and the output end of the motor drives a transmission shaft to drive the conveyor belt to slide within the two baffles.
[0008] A limiting component is fixedly mounted on the support frame and located below the fixed box.
[0009] Preferably, two slide rails are fixedly connected to one side of the support frame, and a limiting slider is movably connected above each of the two slide rails. The sides of the two limiting sliders that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both sides of the fixed box.
[0010] Preferably, a plurality of scrapers are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the surface of the conveyor belt, and the plurality of scrapers slide between two baffles.
[0011] Preferably, multiple limiting posts are fixedly connected at equal intervals on both sides of the conveyor belt, and the multiple limiting posts slide inside the baffle.
[0012] Preferably, the limiting component includes a support plate, a fixing block, and a threaded shaft. The support plate is fixed below the support frame, the upper part of the fixing block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing box, and one end of the threaded shaft passes through the support plate and is threadedly connected to the fixing block.
[0013] Preferably, limiting blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the support plate, and the two sides of the fixed blocks are respectively attached to the outer walls of the two limiting blocks and slide above the support plate.
[0014] Compared with related technologies, the electroplating dryer provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. The bracket supports the support frame, which fixes the fixed box to one side of the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body. The guide hopper and the fixed platform are fixed on the fixed box. The fixed platform supports the guide hopper above. The guide hopper has a funnel structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which can effectively guide the sludge. Workers can directly pour the sludge onto the top of the guide hopper. Guided by the guide hopper and the fixed platform, the sludge is poured into the interior of the electroplating dryer body, reducing worker contact with the electroplating dryer body and increasing safety. After the sludge enters the fixed box, it will fall onto the surface of the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is driven by a motor and a drive shaft. The conveyor belt moves inside two baffles. The baffles extend from the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body to the interior of the drying barrel. The sludge will fall directly into the interior of the electroplating dryer body, reducing the accumulation of sludge at the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body and increasing the drying efficiency of the electroplating dryer body.
[0016] 2. The upper part of the support plate is welded to the lower part of the support frame. One end of the support plate extends below the fixed box. A bearing ring is installed at the connection between the threaded shaft and the support plate. The worker rotates the threaded shaft through a turntable. The threaded shaft drives the fixed box to move to one side of the support frame through the meshing fixed block, which facilitates the change of the fixed box position and improves the moving efficiency of the fixed box. The upper part of the two limit blocks is higher than the sides of the fixed block. The limit blocks increase the contact area between the support plate and the fixed block. When the fixed block moves with the fixed box, the support plate will guide and support the fixed block, increasing the stability of the fixed block movement. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 An electroplating dryer includes: an electroplating dryer body 1, a fixed box 4, and a limiting component 8. A bracket 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the electroplating dryer body 1, and a support frame 3 is fixedly connected above the bracket 2. The support frame 3 is located at the feeding end of the electroplating dryer body 1. The fixed box 4 is movably disposed on one side of the support frame 3. A guide hopper 5 is fixedly connected above the fixed box 4, and a fixed platform 6 is fixedly connected below the guide hopper 5. Two baffles 72 are fixedly connected to one side of the fixed platform 6. One end of the two baffles 72 extends into the interior of the electroplating dryer body 1. A conveyor belt 7 is movably disposed inside the two baffles 72. A motor 73 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the baffles 72. The output end of the motor 73 is driven by a transmission shaft 731 to drive the conveyor belt 7 to slide inside the two baffles 72. The limiting component 8 is fixedly disposed on the support frame 3 and located below the fixed box 4.
[0024] In this way, when workers need to dry the sludge during the process, they will first install the bracket 2 on one side of the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body 1. The bracket 2 is used to support the support frame 3. The support frame 3 fixes the fixed box 4 on one side of the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body 1. The guide hopper 5 and the fixed platform 6 are fixed on the fixed box 4. The fixed platform 6 supports the upper guide hopper 5. The guide hopper 5 has a funnel structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which can guide the sludge well. Workers can directly pour the sludge onto the top of the guide hopper 5. Through the guidance of the guide hopper 5 and the fixed platform 6, the sludge is poured into the interior of the electroplating dryer body 1, reducing the contact between workers and the electroplating dryer body 1 and increasing safety.
[0025] After the sludge enters the fixed box 4, it will fall onto the surface of the conveyor belt 7. The conveyor belt 7 is driven by the motor 73 and the drive shaft 731. The conveyor belt 7 will move inside the two baffles 72. The baffles 72 extend from the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body 1 to the inside of the drying barrel. The sludge will fall directly into the inside of the electroplating dryer body 1, reducing the accumulation of sludge at the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body 1 and increasing the drying efficiency of the electroplating dryer body 1.
[0026] Two slide rails 31 are fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 3. Limiting sliders 41 are movably connected above the two slide rails 31. The sides of the two limiting sliders 41 that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both sides of the fixed box 4. The slide rails 31 are used to support the fixed box 4 by the support frame 3. The fixed box 4 and the support frame 3 are movably connected. The limiting sliders 41 slide above the slide rails 31. When the fixed box 4 slides on one side of the support frame 3, the depth of the baffle 72 inserted into the body 1 of the electroplating dryer can be adjusted to facilitate the change of the sludge pouring depth.
[0027] Preferably, multiple scrapers 71 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the surface of the conveyor belt 7. The multiple scrapers 71 slide between two baffles 72. The spacing between the multiple scrapers 71 is consistent. The multiple scrapers 71 protrude outward from the surface of the conveyor belt 7. The multiple scrapers 71 increase the friction on the surface of the conveyor belt 7. When the conveyor belt 7 moves, the scrapers 71 will drive the sludge to move, thereby improving the conveying efficiency of the conveyor belt 7 for sludge.
[0028] Specifically, multiple limiting posts 74 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on both sides of the conveyor belt 7. The multiple limiting posts 74 slide inside the baffle 72. When the conveyor belt 7 moves inside the two baffles 72, the multiple limiting posts 74 will limit the direction of movement of the conveyor belt 7, thereby increasing the stability of the conveyor belt 7 moving inside the two baffles 72.
[0029] More specifically, the limiting component 8 includes a support plate 81, a fixing block 82, and a threaded shaft 83. The support plate 81 is fixed to the lower part of the support frame 3, the upper part of the fixing block 82 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing box 4, and one end of the threaded shaft 83 passes through the support plate 81 and is threadedly connected to the fixing block 82.
[0030] The upper part of the support plate 81 is welded to the lower part of the support frame 3. One end of the support plate 81 extends below the fixed box 4. A bearing ring is installed at the connection between the threaded shaft 83 and the support plate 81. The worker rotates the threaded shaft 83 by turning the turntable. The threaded shaft 83 drives the fixed box 4 to move to one side of the support frame 3 through the meshing fixed block 82, which facilitates the change of the position of the fixed box 4 and improves the moving efficiency of the fixed box 4.
[0031] Furthermore, during implementation, limiting blocks 821 are fixedly connected to both sides of the support plate 81. The two sides of the fixing block 82 are respectively attached to the outer walls of the two limiting blocks 821 and slide above the support plate 81. The top of the two limiting blocks 821 is higher than the two sides of the fixing block 82. The limiting blocks 821 increase the contact area between the support plate 81 and the fixing block 82. When the fixing block 82 moves with the fixing box 4, the support plate 81 will guide and support the fixing block 82, increasing the stability of the movement of the fixing block 82.
[0032] The working principle of the electroplating dryer provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0033] When using the equipment, if workers need to dry the sludge, they first install bracket 2 on one side of the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body 1. Bracket 2 supports support frame 3, which in turn fixes the fixing box 4 to one side of the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body 1. The guide hopper 5 and the fixing platform 6 are fixed on the fixing box 4. The fixing platform 6 supports the upper guide hopper 5. The guide hopper 5 has a funnel structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which can effectively guide the sludge. Workers can directly pour the sludge onto the top of the guide hopper 5, and the sludge is poured into the machine through the guidance of the guide hopper 5 and the fixing platform 6. Inside the electroplating dryer body 1, the contact between workers and the electroplating dryer body 1 is reduced, increasing safety. After the sludge enters the fixed box 4, it will fall onto the surface of the conveyor belt 7. The conveyor belt 7 is driven by the motor 73 and the drive shaft 731. The conveyor belt 7 will move inside the two baffles 72. The baffles 72 extend from the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body 1 to the inside of the drying barrel. The sludge will fall directly into the inside of the electroplating dryer body 1, reducing the accumulation of sludge at the inlet end of the electroplating dryer body 1 and increasing the drying efficiency of the electroplating dryer body 1.
[0034] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
