Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of plastic drying equipment, and specifically to a plastic drying device. Background Technology

[0002] In the plastics processing industry, plastic raw materials or products typically require drying before processing. This is because plastics easily absorb moisture from the air during storage and transportation, and the presence of moisture can adversely affect the processing performance and product quality. For example, moisture can cause defects such as bubbles, streaks, and deformation during processing, reducing the mechanical, electrical, and appearance properties of the plastic. Therefore, to ensure smooth plastic processing and stable product quality, plastic drying equipment is needed to remove the moisture from the plastic.

[0003] Traditional plastic drying equipment typically uses simple heating methods, such as electric heating or hot air heating, to statically dry the plastic. This method results in uneven heat distribution, making it difficult for internal moisture to dissipate quickly, leading to long drying times and low efficiency. For example, with thick-walled plastic parts or thickly packed plastic granules, heat takes a long time to penetrate, making the drying process slow. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to design a plastic drying device to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background section.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a plastic drying device, comprising a fan, a housing, and a drying cylinder, wherein a hopper is provided on the top of the housing, the hopper is connected to the drying cylinder, the drying cylinder is fixedly connected to the inside of the housing, the output end of the fan is connected to the housing, a plurality of ventilation holes are provided on the side wall of the drying cylinder, and a spiral agitator for stirring materials is connected to the drying cylinder.

[0006] Furthermore, the drying cylinder is connected to a discharge pipe that extends to the outside of the housing.

[0007] Furthermore, the output end of the fan is connected to a diversion chamber, and the diversion chamber is connected to a plurality of air ducts. The air ducts are evenly distributed along the length of the housing and are connected to the housing.

[0008] Furthermore, an electric heater is installed inside the diversion chamber, and the electric heater is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the diversion chamber.

[0009] Furthermore, an inspection door is installed on the side wall of the enclosure.

[0010] Furthermore, a drain outlet is provided at the bottom of the box.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model dries materials by blowing air into the interior of the chamber through a fan; at the same time, the material inside the drying cylinder is fully stirred by a spiral agitator, so that the high-speed airflow comes into full contact with the material, thereby achieving dynamic drying of the material and improving drying efficiency.

[0015] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0016] Example: Please refer to Figure 1-2 A plastic drying device includes a fan 1, a housing 2, and a drying cylinder 3. The housing 2 has an inspection door 10 installed on its side wall for easy maintenance of the drying cylinder 3. A drain outlet is located at the bottom of the housing 2 to facilitate the drainage of water inside the housing 2. A hopper 4 is located at the top of the housing 2 and is connected to the drying cylinder 3, which is fixedly connected to the inside of the housing 2. The output end of the fan 1 is connected to the housing 2. Several ventilation holes are provided on the side wall of the drying cylinder 3. A spiral agitator 5 for stirring materials is connected to the drying cylinder 3. Materials are added to the drying cylinder 3 from the hopper 4. Air is blown into the housing 2 by the fan 1, and simultaneously, the spiral agitator 5 thoroughly stirs the materials, ensuring full contact between the materials and the high-speed airflow, achieving dynamic drying and thus improving drying efficiency.

[0017] The drying cylinder 3 is connected to a discharge pipe 6, which extends to the outside of the chamber 2. A discharge valve is installed on the discharge pipe 6. After the material is dried, the discharge valve is opened, so that the material is discharged from the discharge pipe 6.

[0018] The output end of the fan 1 is connected to a distribution chamber 7, which is connected to several air ducts 8, which are connected to the housing 2. High-speed airflow is delivered to the housing 2 through the air ducts 8, which are evenly distributed along the length of the housing 2, so that the high-speed airflow is evenly distributed in the housing 2, thereby further improving the drying efficiency.

[0019] An electric heater 9 is installed inside the distribution chamber 7 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the distribution chamber 7.
