[0010] This utility model provides a glass instrument dryer, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. This glassware dryer, equipped with a fixing ring, an air bladder, and a contact pad, allows glass cups or test tubes to be placed on the outside of the drying rod. The position of the fixing ring is adjusted according to the depth of the glass cup or test tube. The output of a servo motor drives a ball screw to rotate, which in turn drives a lifting column to move. This lifting column then moves the fixing ring upwards. The corresponding second and first solenoid valves are opened according to the required drying rod. A first air pump draws gas from the air chamber and discharges it through a connecting pipe into the opened second solenoid valve and branch pipe. The gas then enters the connecting pipe through the opened first solenoid valve and into the air chamber. The gas inside the air chamber enters the air bladder through the connector, causing the air bladder to inflate. This inflates the air bladder, pushing the contact pad to clamp the test tube or glass cup. This allows for the fixation of test tubes or glass cups of various depths and diameters, improving the efficiency of drying glassware.

This glassware desiccant, equipped with a first solenoid valve, a branch pipe, and a second solenoid valve, allows for the control of the expansion or contraction of the required air bladder by opening the corresponding second and first solenoid valves according to the drying rod being used. This clamps the test tube or glass cup. Through the pipe, third solenoid valve, and fixed pipe, the third solenoid valve corresponding to the required drying rod is opened, so that hot air is only ejected through the nozzles set on the outside of the required drying rod, reducing the waste of hot air.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 4This utility model provides a technical solution: a glass instrument dryer, including a base 1, with several drying rods 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A fixing ring 4 is placed on the top of the base 1 and outside the drying rods 2. A limiting cavity 6 is formed inside the fixing ring 4 and outside the limiting cavity 6. An air cavity 5 is formed inside the fixing ring 4 and outside the limiting cavity 6. An air bladder 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of each limiting cavity 6. A contact pad 8 is installed on the inner side of each air bladder 7. The air bladder 7 and the air cavity 5 are connected internally through a connector. A connecting pipe 9 is fixedly connected inside the base 1 and below the fixing rings 4. One end of each of the connecting pipes 9 extends into the air chamber 5. Several branch pipes 10 are fixedly connected inside the base 1. The other end of each connecting pipe 9 is fixedly connected to a first solenoid valve 11. One end of each first solenoid valve 11 is connected to one end of each branch pipe 10. The other end of each branch pipe 10 is fixedly connected to a second solenoid valve 12. An air box 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the base 1. A first air pump 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the base 1 and to the side of the air box 14. One end of the first air pump 13 extends into the air box 14. The other end of the first air pump 13 is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 25. One end of each second solenoid valve 12 is connected to the inside of the connecting pipe 25.

[0021] A lifting chamber 15 is provided inside the base 1 and on one side of the drying rod 2. A ball screw 17 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner cavity of each lifting chamber 15, and a servo motor 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of each inner cavity of each lifting chamber 15. The output end of each servo motor 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each ball screw 17. A lifting column 18 is threadedly connected to the outer side of each ball screw 17. The top of each lifting column 18 extends above the base 1 and is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing ring 4, which can drive the lifting column 18 to move, so that the lifting column 18 drives the fixing ring 4. The fixed ring 4 moves to adjust its height, thus limiting the test tubes or glass cups at different depths. Each drying rod 2 has a pipe 19 fixedly connected to its bottom, with the bottom end of each pipe 19 extending into the base 1. A fixed pipe 20 is fixedly connected inside the base 1. One end of each pipe 19 is fixedly connected to a third solenoid valve 21, which communicates with the inside of the fixed pipe 20. A heating chamber 22 is fixedly connected inside the base 1, below the fixed pipe 20. Several electric heating rods 23 are fixedly connected inside the heating chamber 22, heating the gas inside. This hot air dries the inner walls of the test tubes or glass cups placed outside the drying rod 2. A second air pump 24 is fixedly connected to one side of the base 1, with one end extending into the heating chamber 22 and the other end of the fixed pipe 20 extending into the heating chamber 22, allowing outside air to be discharged into the heating chamber 22 for heating. The heated air then enters the heating chamber 22 through the fixed pipe 20 and the opened third solenoid valve 21. The hot air inside the pipe 19 then enters the drying rod 2 through the pipe 19, allowing the hot air inside the drying rod 2 to be sprayed through the nozzles 3 onto the inner wall of the test tube or glass, thus drying the inner wall of the test tube or glass. Several nozzles 3 are opened on the outer side of the drying rod 2, and the nozzles 3 are all connected to the inside of the drying rod 2. The drying rod 2 is also connected to the inside of the pipe 19, so that the hot air inside the drying rod 2 can be sprayed through the nozzles 3 onto the inner wall of the test tube or glass that is fitted on the outer side of the drying rod 2, thereby drying the inner wall of the test tube or glass.

[0022] Example 2

[0023] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides a technical solution: a controller is fixedly connected to one side of the base 1 so as to control the operation of the dryer.

[0024] In summary, when using this glass instrument desiccator, place the glass cup or glass test tube outside the drying rod 2. Then, adjust the position of the fixing ring 4 according to the depth of the glass cup or glass test tube. The output end of the servo motor 16 drives the ball screw 17 to rotate, causing the ball screw 17 to drive the lifting column 18 to move, which in turn drives the fixing ring 4 to move upward. Then, according to the required drying rod 2, open the corresponding second solenoid valve 12 and first solenoid valve 11. The first air pump 13 then draws in the gas inside the air tank 14, and then discharges the gas through the connecting pipe 25 into the opened second solenoid valve 12 and branch pipe 10. Then, it enters the connecting pipe 9 through the opened first solenoid valve 11, and then enters the air chamber 5 through the connecting pipe 9. The gas inside the air chamber 5 enters the air bag 7 through the connector, causing the air bag 7 to inflate. The air bag 7 pushes the contact pad 8 to clamp the test tube or glass cup, and then the required drying rod is used. The third solenoid valve 21 corresponding to 2 opens, and then the second air pump 24 draws in external gas. Then, the gas is discharged into the heating chamber 22 through the other end of the second air pump 24. The gas inside the heating chamber 22 is heated by the electric heating rod 23, so that the hot gas enters the fixed tube 20. Then, the hot gas is discharged into the pipe 19 through the third solenoid valve 21. Then, the hot gas enters the drying rod 2 through the pipe 19. Then, the hot gas inside the drying rod 2 is sprayed into the test tube or glass through the nozzle 3 to dry the inside of the test tube or glass. After drying, the first air pump 13 extracts the gas from the air bag 7 through the connecting pipe 25, the second solenoid valve 12, the branch pipe 10, the first solenoid valve 11 and the connecting pipe 9, the air chamber 5 and the connector. Then, the other end of the first air pump 13 discharges the gas into the air box 14, so that the air bag 7 contracts. The air bag 7 causes the contact pad 8 to contract, releasing the restriction on the test tube or glass, so that the test tube or glass can be removed from the outside of the drying rod 2.
