[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model provides a technical solution: a continuous drying device for the production of wollastonite powder, including a shell 3, inside which a crushing chamber 12 and a drying chamber 19 are arranged. A motor 20 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the shell 3. One end of the shaft of the motor 20 is connected to the shaft of a first rotating shaft 11. Belts 21 are sleeved on the outer walls of the first rotating shaft 11 and the second rotating shaft 14. This structure can drive the first rotating shaft 11, belts 21 and the second rotating shaft 14 to rotate through the motor 20. A feed hopper 2 is arranged on one side of the crushing chamber 12. A sealing cover 1 is hinged to the top of the feed hopper 2. The first rotating shaft 11 and the second rotating shaft 14 are rotatably connected inside the crushing chamber 12. The first rotating shaft 11 is located on top of the second rotating shaft 14. One end of the device penetrates the outer casing 3 and is located on the outer wall of the outer casing 3. This structure, through the rotation of the first rotating shaft 11 and the second rotating shaft 14, can drive the crushing blade 10 and the stirring blade 13 to crush and stir the material, thereby avoiding material blockage and agglomeration. Multiple crushing blades 10 are distributed in a circular, equally spaced pattern on the outer wall of the first rotating shaft 11, and multiple stirring blades 13 are also arranged on the outer wall of the second rotating shaft 14. This structure, with its denser distribution of crushing blades 10 and stirring blades 13, can improve the efficiency of material stirring and crushing. The crushing blades 10 and stirring blades 13 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the first rotating shaft 11 and the second rotating shaft 14, respectively. A conveying pipe 17 is inserted inside the crushing chamber 12, and a second powder negative pressure conveying pump 15 is installed on the conveying pipe 17. One end of the 17 is connected to a distributor 16, which has a circular structure and multiple openings at its bottom. This structure allows the wollastonite powder to be diverted and sprayed out, thus dispersing the material for thorough drying. The distributor 16 is fixed to the top of the drying chamber 19. Both the drying chamber 19 and the crushing chamber 12 have inclined bottoms. A temperature and humidity sensor 7 is installed on one side of the drying chamber 19. This structure uses the temperature and humidity sensor 7 to detect the temperature and humidity of the material. When the material reaches the appropriate temperature and humidity, it can be released. The temperature and humidity sensor 7 can be controlled by a PLC. A discharge pipe 9 is provided at the bottom of the drying chamber 19, and a solenoid valve 8 is installed on the discharge pipe 9. This structure allows... The solenoid valve 8 can automatically control the opening and closing of the discharge pipe 9 to facilitate the release of materials. The outer wall of the drying chamber 19 is equipped with a heating pipe 18. The bottom of the drying chamber 19 is connected to a continuous pipe 5. The continuous pipe 5 is equipped with a first powder negative pressure conveying pump 6 and a one-way valve 4. The top of the continuous pipe 5 is connected to one side of the drying chamber 19. The one-way valve 4 can prevent materials from entering from the top of the continuous pipe 5. The second powder negative pressure conveying pump 15 and the first powder negative pressure conveying pump 6 are both vacuum powder conveying pumps. They achieve the purpose of powder conveying by vacuum suction. They are mainly used to convey powdered materials, granular materials, and powder-granular mixtures. The second powder negative pressure conveying pump 15 and the first powder negative pressure conveying pump 6 are existing technologies, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0022] Working principle: When using this continuous drying equipment for wollastonite powder production, first open the sealing cover 1 and add the material from the feed hopper 2 into the crushing chamber 12. As the material falls, it comes into contact with the rotating crushing blade 10 and stirring blade 13 in sequence to complete crushing and stirring. The material falling to the bottom of the crushing chamber 12 is concentrated to one side to facilitate the suction of the second powder negative pressure conveying pump 15 and the conveying pipe 17. After entering the conveying pipe 17, the material enters the distributor 16 and then falls from the bottom opening of the distributor 16 into the drying chamber 19. During the falling process, the material enters the heating pipe 18 to heat the drying area, thereby realizing the first heating of the material. The material falling to the bottom is sucked in from the top side of the drying chamber 19 by the continuous pipe 5 and the first powder negative pressure conveying pump 6, thus realizing the continuous drying of the material. When the material detects that the humidity is suitable, the solenoid valve 8 opens to discharge the material.
[0023] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
