[0002] In industries such as glass glaze, ceramic glaze, and sealing glass, glass clinker is an important intermediate raw material. It is usually prepared by rapidly cooling after high-temperature melting to form a glassy body with an amorphous structure. Glass clinker often has a high moisture content during the cooling process. If it is not dried in a timely and effective manner, it is prone to agglomeration, clumping, moisture absorption and deterioration during crushing and storage, which affects its subsequent application performance and the accuracy of the formulation.

[0003] Currently, during the drying of glass clinker, material accumulation is prone to occur, affecting the drying effect and failing to guarantee sufficient drying. At the same time, the flow rate of the material is difficult to control, which cannot ensure good drying efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0010] More preferably, a support rod is horizontally fixed inside the drying cylinder, and mounting brackets are connected to the feed inlet and the clearance opening on both sides of the support rod. Multiple support frames are fixed on the support rod, and a protective plate is provided on the support frame above the exhaust pipe.

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-5 A drying device for glass clinker production includes a horizontally rotating drying cylinder 1. Multiple stirring blades 16 are arranged on the inner wall of the drying cylinder 1. An inlet 13 and an outlet 14 are respectively provided on both sides of the drying cylinder 1. A drive mechanism 2 for driving the drying cylinder 1 to rotate is provided on one side of the drying cylinder 1. A hot air guiding mechanism 5 is provided inside the drying cylinder 1. The drive mechanism 2 drives the drying cylinder 1 to rotate, and the hot air guiding mechanism 5, in conjunction with this, introduces hot air into the drying cylinder 1 and carries away moisture, thereby drying the material.

[0029] The feed inlet 13 is located in the middle of the side wall at one end of the drying cylinder 1. A feed hopper 4 is provided at the feed inlet 13 and is mounted on one side of the drying cylinder 1 by a bracket. The hot air guiding mechanism 5 includes a hot air blower 52 located on one side of the drying cylinder 1, an air supply pipe 51 connected to the air outlet of the hot air blower 52, and an exhaust pipe 53 located in the drying cylinder 1. The air supply pipe 51 sends air into the drying cylinder 1 through the feed inlet 13. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 52 is sent into the drying cylinder 1 through the air supply pipe 51 to heat the material and ensure the drying effect of the glass clinker. The water vapor evaporated during the drying process is extracted through the exhaust pipe 53 to ensure the drying effect during continuous operation.

[0030] Multiple sets of stirring blades 16 are provided. A baffle ring 17 is fixedly connected to the side of each set of stirring blades 16 furthest from the feed inlet 13. Each stirring blade 16 includes an arc-shaped pushing part 161 near the feed inlet 13 and a horizontally extending supporting part 162 on the other side. The pushing part 161 drives the material towards the discharge outlet 14 for discharge. The supporting part 162 temporarily stores the material, allowing it to rotate with the drying cylinder 1 to the upper part of the inner cavity before falling, thus increasing the contact area with hot air and improving drying efficiency. The baffle ring 17 also serves to block the material during temporary storage, slowing its movement towards the discharge outlet 14 and ensuring thorough drying.

[0031] Based on the above technical solution, when using this equipment for the drying process of glass cadmium processing, the drying cylinder 1 is heated by a hot air blower 52 in conjunction with an air supply pipe 51. After preheating for a period of time, the material is fed into the drying cylinder 1 through the feed inlet 13 using the feed hopper 4. The drying cylinder 1 is rotated by the drive mechanism 2, and the material is stirred and dried by the stirring blades 16 to ensure the drying effect of the material. When the stirring blades 16 are stirring, their pushing part 161 pushes the material towards the discharge port 14, and their supporting part 162 drives the material to rise along its annular inner wall and fall naturally at the top of the drying cylinder 1, dispersing the material to increase the contact area with the hot air and ensure that the material is fully dried. The water vapor generated during drying is extracted through the exhaust pipe 53 to ensure the continuous drying capacity of the drying cylinder 1.

[0032] In this technical solution, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the exhaust pipe 53 has evenly spaced air inlets 531. One end of the exhaust pipe 53 is connected to a ventilation device, and the other end of the drying cylinder 1 has an clearance opening corresponding to the exhaust pipe 53. Multiple air inlets 531 ensure effective moisture removal.

[0033] In this technical solution, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, a support rod 54 is horizontally fixed inside the drying cylinder 1. The support rod 54 extends from both sides of the feed inlet 13 and connects to the clearance opening with mounting brackets. Multiple support frames 551 are fixedly mounted on the support rod 54, and protective plates 55 are installed on the support frames 551 above the exhaust pipe 53. The protective plates 55 block material that is driven upwards and falls by the stirring blades 16, protecting the exhaust pipe 53. They also further disperse the material, ensuring sufficient contact between the material and the hot air, thus improving drying efficiency. Simultaneously, the design of the support frames 551 also enhances the structural strength of the exhaust pipe 53.

[0034] In this technical solution, such as Figure 1-5As shown, the drive mechanism 2 includes a gear ring 21 fixedly sleeved on the outside of the feed inlet 13, a drive gear 22 meshing with the gear ring 21, and a drive motor 23 for driving the drive gear 22 to rotate. A reducer can be installed between the output end of the drive motor 23 and the drive gear 22 to ensure the torque required to drive the drying cylinder 1 to rotate, thus ensuring the stable operation of the drying cylinder 1.

[0035] In this technical solution, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the drying cylinder 1 is provided with an insulation sleeve 3 on the outside, and a heating plate is provided in the insulation sleeve 3 corresponding to the drying cylinder 1. The heating plate heats the drying cylinder 1, improving the drying effect on the material, while the insulation sleeve 3 reduces heat loss and ensures heating efficiency.

[0036] In this technical solution, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the discharge port 14 is located on the annular side wall of the drying cylinder 1, and a feeding sleeve 15 is rotatably connected to the outside of the discharge port 14. The feeding sleeve 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the insulation sleeve 3, and a discharge port is provided at the lower part of the feeding sleeve 15. The dried material is sent out through the discharge port 14 and guided through the feeding sleeve 15 to the discharge port for easy collection of the dried material.

[0037] In this technical solution, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the drying cylinder 1 has annular protective edges 141 on both sides of the discharge port 14 on its side wall. The protective edges 141 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the feed sleeve 15. The protective edges 141 prevent material splashing and ensure a stable rotational connection between the drying cylinder 1 and the feed sleeve 15.

[0038] In this technical solution, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, multiple stabilizing rings 11 are fitted around the outside of the drying cylinder 1, and roller support frames 12 corresponding to the stabilizing rings 11 are provided below the drying cylinder 1. The roller support frames 12 support the drying cylinder 1, ensuring stable support of the drying cylinder 1.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
