[0026] The lower surface of the upper box body 2 is sequentially provided with an upper main air guide structure and an upper auxiliary air guide structure facing the gap along the running direction of the strip steel 1, and the upper main air guide structure and the upper auxiliary air guide structure are respectively attached to the upper surface and the lower surface of the strip steel 1.
[0027] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the upper main air guide structure includes an upper guide block 4 mounted on the lower surface of the upper box body 2 by bolts, and upper main air guide plates mounted on the lower surface of the upper box body 2 on both sides of the upper guide block 4 by bolts. In this embodiment, two sets of upper main air guide structures are installed. The upper auxiliary air guide structure includes an upper guide block 4 mounted on the lower surface of the upper box body 2 by bolts, and upper auxiliary air guide plates mounted on the lower surface of the upper box body 2 on both sides of the upper guide block 4 by bolts. In this embodiment, three sets of upper auxiliary air guide structures are installed.
[0028] The bottom end of the upper guide block 4 is conical and in line contact with the upper surface of the strip steel 1. The bottom end of the upper main air guide plate is inclined towards the left side and in line contact with the upper surface of the strip steel 1, and the inclined direction is opposite to the running direction of the strip steel 1, and the inner side wall of the upper main air guide plate near the bottom end is attached to the outer wall of the upper guide block 4 on the same side. The bottom end of the upper auxiliary air guide plate is inclined towards the left side, but does not contact the upper surface of the strip steel 1, and the inner side wall of the upper auxiliary air guide plate near the bottom end is attached to the outer wall of the upper guide block 4 on the same side.
[0029] The lower main air guide structure includes a lower guide block mounted on the upper surface of the lower box body 3 by bolts, and lower main air guide plates mounted on the upper surface of the lower box body 3 on both sides of the lower guide block by bolts. In this embodiment, two sets of lower main air guide structures are installed. The lower auxiliary air guide structure includes a lower guide block mounted on the upper surface of the lower box body 3 by bolts, a lower guide block mounted on the upper surface of the lower box body 3 on both sides of the lower guide block by bolts, and a lower auxiliary air guide plate mounted on the upper surface of the lower box body 3 on both sides of the lower guide block by bolts. In this embodiment, three sets of lower auxiliary air guide structures are installed.
[0030] The top end of the lower guide block is conical and in line contact with the lower surface of the strip steel 1. The bottom end of the lower main air guide plate is inclined towards the left and in line contact with the lower surface of the strip steel 1, the inclination direction is opposite to the running direction of the strip steel 1, and the inner side wall of the lower main air guide plate near the bottom end is in close contact with the outer wall of the lower guide block on the same side.
[0031] Further, as shown in Figure 3 The lengths of the upper main air guide plate, the upper auxiliary air guide plate, the lower main air guide plate and the lower auxiliary air guide plate are equal and greater than the width of the strip steel 1.

The hot air blown out from the upper main air guide plate not only can scrape off water stains because the bottom end of the upper main air guide plate is in contact with the upper surface of the strip steel 1, but also can control the hot air to escape within a certain range to form a chamber separated from the upper auxiliary air guide plate. At the same time, the upper main air guide plate and the upper auxiliary air guide plate are inclined towards the same direction, which can blow the water stains towards the entering direction of the strip steel 1, increase the heating time of the water stains and accelerate the drying of the upper surface of the strip steel 1.
[0036] Similarly, the air blown out from the lower air outlet is also divided into two parts, which are the hot air blown out from the lower main air guide plate and the hot air blown out from the lower auxiliary air guide plate, and the lower main air guide plate and the lower auxiliary air guide plate form a chamber separated from each other to increase the heating time of the water stains and accelerate the drying of the lower surface of the strip steel 1.
[0037] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application in any form. Although the present application has been disclosed with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present application. Any person skilled in the art can make minor changes or modifications to the disclosed technical content, or make equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes, without departing from the technical solution of the present application. Any modification, equivalent change or modification of the above embodiments, which does not depart from the technical solution of the present application, is still within the scope of the technical solution of the present application.
