[0002] In the prior art, patent CN108444267A discloses a tunnel-type composite drying device for refractory materials, including a mounting base, a drying chamber, rotating shafts, rollers, an air compressor, a first motor, and a second motor. The drying chamber is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting base. Two sets of rotating shafts are symmetrically installed in the center of the inner cavity of the drying chamber. Rollers are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the rotating shafts. A conveying device is installed between the outer walls of the two sets of rollers. The upper left rotating shaft passes through the drying chamber laterally and connects to the output shaft of the first motor. The first motor is installed on the upper left side of the other side of the mounting base. The lower right rotating shaft passes through the drying chamber laterally and connects to the output shaft of the second motor. This invention can not only feed and dry refractory materials at a uniform speed, but also heat the gas in a timely and rapid manner, and facilitates the uniform filling of the drying chamber by the drying gas, effectively improving the drying efficiency.

[0003] In actual use, although the aforementioned equipment can dry particulate materials by emitting heated gas at multiple fixed locations, during actual processing, the particulate materials tend to accumulate after being fed onto the conveying device. Since the existing equipment does not have a structure to organize the particulate materials, the drying process can result in either significant external drying and insufficient internal drying, or complete internal drying and excessive external drying.

[0004] Therefore, a tunnel drying device for battery particulate materials is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] (1) This utility model, through the setting of structures such as movable plate, spring, transmission component, rotating shaft, lifting rod and transmission rod, after the battery particle material is put into the conveyor belt on the transmission component from the feed port on the drying box, the rotating shaft drives the lifting rod to intermittently lift the conveyor belt on the movable plate upward.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: a tunnel drying device for battery particulate materials, including a mounting base 1, a drying chamber 2, an inflation assembly 3 and a transmission assembly 5 on the drying chamber 2, a driving assembly 4 mounted on the mounting base 1, the driving assembly 4 mounted on the transmission assembly 5, and a spring mechanism and a leveling mechanism mounted on the inner wall of the drying chamber 2, both of which are in contact with the transmission assembly 5. The spring mechanism includes two limiting grooves 6, and limiting grooves 6 are formed on both sides of the inner wall of the drying chamber 2. A movable plate 61 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the drying chamber 2, and the movable plate 61 is in contact with the upper inner surface of the transmission assembly 5. A rotating shaft 64 is rotatably installed on the drying chamber 2, and an irregular turntable 65 is installed on the rotating shaft 64. A transmission rod 66 is rotatably installed on the irregular turntable 65, and a lifting rod 67 is installed on the other end of the transmission rod 66. The top end of the lifting rod 67 is in contact with the bottom side of the movable plate 61, and a positioning rod 68 is installed on the bottom side of the movable plate 61. The lifting rod 67 is slidably installed inside the positioning rod 68. A series of... Support plate 62, on which multiple springs 63 are mounted, the other ends of which are mounted on the bottom side of movable plate 61. A transmission component 69 is sleeved on one drive shaft of transmission component 5, the other end of which is sleeved on rotating shaft 64. The drive shaft on transmission component 5 drives transmission component 69 to rotate, which in turn drives rotating shaft 64 to rotate. Rotating shaft 64 drives irregular turntable 65 to rotate, which in turn drives transmission rod 66 to rotate. Transmission rod 66 drives lifting rod 6 inside positioning rod 68. 7. Moving upwards, when the irregular turntable 65 rotates from the flat end to the pointed end, the lifting rod 67 drives the movable plate 61 to move upwards, lifting the battery particle material on the conveyor belt to the highest position. Then, the lifting rod 67 immediately retracts. At this time, when the lifting rod 67 moves upwards, the spring 63 will be stretched. When the lifting rod 67 retracts, under the action of the elastic force of the spring 63, the battery particle material on the conveyor belt will briefly jump up, so that the heating equipment on the drying chamber 2 can be used to fully dry the jumping battery particle material.

[0024] Example 2: Based on Example 1, in order to facilitate the flattening of the battery granules on the conveyor belt, a flattening mechanism is arranged on the drying chamber 2. Specifically, it includes a rotating shaft 7, which is rotatably mounted on the drying chamber 2. A sorting plate 71 is installed on the bottom side of the drying chamber 2, and the sorting plate 71 is in contact with the upper surface of the conveyor assembly 5. A mounting frame 73 is installed on the drying chamber 2, and a servo motor 72 is installed on the mounting frame 73. The output shaft of the servo motor 72 is installed on the top of the sorting plate 71. The servo motor 72 drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 7 drives the sorting plate 71 to rotate, thereby quickly flattening the battery granules on the conveyor belt and preventing the battery granules from accumulating in one position on the conveyor belt during transmission, which would prevent the battery granules from being fully dried. The other features are the same as in Example 1.

[0025] The working principle is as follows: When battery granules are fed onto the conveyor belt of the transmission assembly 5 from the feed port on the drying chamber 2, the switch on the drive assembly 4 is activated, which drives the conveyor belt on the transmission assembly 5 to rotate, thus facilitating the drying of the battery granules during the transmission process. Simultaneously, the switch on the servo motor 72 on the mounting bracket 73 is activated, which drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate. The rotating shaft 7 then drives the sorting plate 71 to rotate, thus quickly spreading the battery granules on the conveyor belt evenly. At the same time, the drive shaft on the transmission assembly 5 drives the transmission assembly 69 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 64 to rotate. The irregular turntable 65 rotates, which drives the transmission rod 66 to rotate. The transmission rod 66 drives the lifting rod 67 inside the positioning rod 68 to move upward. When the irregular turntable 65 rotates from the flat end to the tip, the lifting rod 67 drives the movable plate 61 to move upward, lifting the battery particle material on the conveyor belt to the highest position. Then the lifting rod 67 immediately retracts. At this time, when the lifting rod 67 moves upward, the spring 63 will be stretched. When the lifting rod 67 retracts, under the action of the elastic force of the spring 63, the battery particle material on the conveyor belt will briefly jump up, so that the heating equipment on the drying chamber 2 can be used to fully dry the jumping battery particle material.

[0026] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
