[0022] Please see Figure 1-5 A drying device for processing pet dog and cat food includes a frame 1, a support rod 8 rotatably connected to the inner side of the frame 1, and a support cylinder 2 sleeved on the support rod 8; a drive motor 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the frame 1 by bolts, and one end of the support rod 8 passes through the side wall of the frame 1 and is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 11 for transmission; an annular air outlet hood 4 is sleeved on the outer side of the support cylinder 2, and a side frame 19 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the frame 1; a screw 13 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the side frame 19, and one end of the screw 13 is threadedly connected to a nut seat 14, and one side of the nut seat 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the annular air outlet hood 4; one end of the screw 13 and one end of the support rod 8 are connected by a belt 10; a hot air blower 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the frame 1 by bolts, and the outlet of the hot air blower 17 is connected to one side of the annular air outlet hood 4.
[0023] First, the pet dog and cat food to be dried is placed into the carrier cylinder 2, which is designed with a mesh structure to facilitate the penetration of hot air. Then, the drive motor 11 is started, driving the carrier rod 8 to rotate via the belt 10, thus causing the carrier cylinder 2, which rests on the carrier rod 8, to rotate, ensuring the food inside receives heat evenly. Simultaneously, the hot air blower (labeled 17) is activated, blowing hot air through the annular air outlet 4 onto the food inside the rotating carrier cylinder 2 to achieve the initial drying process. Furthermore, the carrier rod 8 is connected to the screw 13. As the carrier rod 8 rotates, the screw 13 also rotates synchronously, and the nut seat 14 moves along the screw via threaded engagement. The annular air outlet 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the nut seat 14, allowing it to move along the outer side of the carrier cylinder 2, ensuring uniform heating of the food from different angles and positions, thereby improving the uniformity of food drying.
[0024] Furthermore, pulleys 9 are fitted onto one end of the screw 13 and one end of the support rod 8, and the two pulleys 9 are connected by a belt 10. The rotation of the support rod 8 can synchronously drive the screw 13 to rotate. This design ensures that when the drive motor 11 starts, not only can the support cylinder 2 rotate, but the annular air outlet shroud 4 can also move along the support cylinder 2, achieving the effect of ensuring that the feed receives hot air evenly from different angles, thus improving the uniformity and efficiency of drying.
[0025] Furthermore, a side plate 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the frame 1, and a slider 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the annular air outlet hood 4. The slider 5 is slidably connected to the side plate 3 through a sliding groove 6, allowing the annular air outlet hood 4 to slide stably and smoothly along the outside of the bearing cylinder 2. This design not only enhances the stability of equipment operation but also reduces energy loss and component wear caused by friction, thereby improving equipment durability and ease of maintenance.
[0026] Furthermore, one end of the support rod 8 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame 1 via a rotating shaft, and the other end of the support rod 8 passes through the side wall of the frame 1 via a bearing sleeve. A bottom valve 7 is installed at the bottom of the frame 1, allowing the support rod 8 to rotate smoothly within the frame 1. The bottom valve 7 also helps to clean residual materials or perform maintenance operations, ensuring the stability and convenience of equipment operation, and achieving the effect of easy cleaning and maintenance and reduced downtime.
[0027] Furthermore, a cover plate 18 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the bearing cylinder 2 via a hinge, and a telescopic hose 12 is connected to the outlet of the hot air blower 17. One end of the telescopic hose 12 is connected to one side of the annular air outlet hood 4, which not only facilitates the loading and unloading of materials, but also ensures that the hot air generated by the hot air blower 17 can be flexibly adjusted in direction and effectively transmitted to the annular air outlet hood 4, making the operation of the equipment more user-friendly and achieving the effect of improving the convenience and flexibility of operation.
[0028] Furthermore, a connecting block 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the nut seat 14, and the connecting block 15 passes through the side wall of the frame 1 via the movable groove 16. One side of the connecting block 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the annular air outlet hood 4. The nut seat 14 can be stably connected to the annular air outlet hood 4, ensuring that it can move precisely along the predetermined trajectory when the screw 13 rotates. This ensures the accuracy and stability of the movement of the annular air outlet hood 4, thereby further enhancing the uniformity and efficiency of the drying process.
[0029] In summary:
[0030] First, the pet dog / cat food to be dried is placed into the carrier cylinder 2, which is designed with a mesh structure to facilitate the penetration of hot air. The drive motor 11 is started, driving the carrier rod 8 to rotate via the belt 10, thus causing the carrier cylinder 2, which rests on the carrier rod 8, to rotate, ensuring the food inside receives heat evenly. Simultaneously, the hot air blower 17 is started, blowing hot air through the annular exhaust hood 4 onto the food inside the rotating carrier cylinder 2 to achieve the initial drying process.
