Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of granule technology, and relates to dryers, particularly a rapid dryer for granule production. Background Technology

[0002] Rapid dryers for granule production are specialized drying equipment used in the pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries for granular materials. Their primary function is to remove moisture from the granules, thereby improving product quality and extending shelf life. These dryers typically employ technologies such as hot air circulation, spray drying, or fluidized bed drying, enabling the drying process to be completed in a short time. Some dryers are also designed for energy efficiency, maintaining drying efficiency while reducing energy consumption. By using rapid dryers, manufacturers can improve production efficiency, reduce production costs, and simultaneously ensure product quality and safety.

[0003] However, in some existing rapid dryers used for granule production, granules tend to accumulate during use, which prevents hot air from contacting the granules evenly, resulting in uneven drying and affecting the quality of the final product. Therefore, this problem needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a rapid dryer for granule production. The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that granules tend to accumulate, which prevents hot air from contacting the granules evenly, resulting in uneven drying and affecting the quality of the final product.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A rapid dryer for granule production includes a base with two support shafts rotatably connected to the top of the base. A drying chamber is rotatably connected between the two support shafts. Each of the two support shafts has a rotating mechanism for rotating the drying chamber. Two turntables are rotatably connected to the bottom of the drying chamber, and a drying roller is fixedly connected between the two turntables. The drying roller has multiple drying grooves arranged in a ring. Multiple air vents are provided inside each of the drying grooves. A connecting pipe is fixedly connected to one end of the drying roller, and the connecting pipe communicates with the air vents. One of the turntables has a rotating mechanism for rotating the drying roller. Each of the multiple drying grooves has a rotating shaft rotatably connected to one side of the two turntables. Three scrapers are fixedly connected to the surface of each rotating shaft, arranged in a ring. An adjustment mechanism for adjusting the scrapers is provided at one end of each rotating shaft. The arrangement of the drying grooves and scrapers effectively prevents granule accumulation.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the rotating mechanism includes a T-shaped groove, which is formed on the top of the base. A T-shaped plate is slidably connected inside the T-shaped groove. A hydraulic rod is fixedly connected to the top of the T-shaped plate. The output end of the hydraulic rod is fixedly connected to one side of the base. A rack is fixedly connected to the surface of the T-shaped plate near the support shaft. A third gear is engaged at the bottom of the rack. The third gear is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the support shaft. By setting the third gear, the drying chamber can be rotated.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the rotating mechanism includes a first gear ring, which is fixedly connected to one side of one of the turntables. A motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drying chamber near the first gear ring. A first gear is fixedly connected to the surface of the motor near the first gear ring via a coupling. The first gear and the first gear ring are configured to cooperate with each other. The first gear ring enables the drying roller to rotate.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the adjustment mechanism includes a second gear, which is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft. A second gear ring is fitted on the surface of the second gear, and the second gear ring is fixedly connected to one side of the drying chamber. The scraper can be adjusted by the setting of the second gear.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] 1. This utility model employs a technology that separates particles through drying tanks and scrapers, effectively preventing particle accumulation. This solves the problem of particle accumulation, which prevents hot air from contacting the particles evenly, resulting in uneven drying and affecting the quality of the final product. Multiple drying tanks are provided on the surface of the drying roller, allowing particles to enter them as the roller rotates. Each drying tank has multiple air vents connected to connecting pipes to ensure proper drying of the particles. Because multiple drying tanks separate the particles, particle accumulation is prevented. Attached Figure Description

The rack 303 allows the third gear 302 to rotate. The third gear 302 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the support shaft 301. The third gear 302 allows the drying chamber 1 to rotate.

[0021] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes a first gear ring 106, which is fixedly connected to one side of one of the turntables 101. A motor 108 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drying chamber 1 near the first gear ring 106.

A first gear 107 is installed on the output shaft of the motor 108, which engages with a first gear ring 106 on one side of the drying roller 102. Thus, when the motor 108 starts, the drying roller 102 rotates synchronously. Multiple drying grooves 103 are formed on the surface of the drying roller 102. As the drying roller 102 rotates, the granules can enter the multiple drying grooves 103 and be dried evenly. Multiple air vents 104 are provided and connected to connecting pipes 105 to ensure that the particles can be dried. The particles can be separated by multiple drying tanks 103, thus avoiding the accumulation of particles.

A second gear 202 is installed at one end of each rotating shaft 2, and the second gear 202 cooperates with the second gear ring 203 on one side of the drying chamber 1. When the drying roller 102 drives the rotating shaft 2 to rotate, the rotating shaft 2 will drive the scrapers 201 to rotate, thereby further separating the particles and ensuring that the particles are dried more evenly.
