Detailed Implementation

[0018] To deepen the understanding of this utility model, the following detailed description will be provided in conjunction with embodiments. These embodiments are only used to explain this utility model and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0019] according to Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3 and 4, this embodiment proposes an energy-saving drying device for the production of titanium dioxide powder pigments, including a tank body 1, an inlet pipe 2, and an outlet pipe 3. The inlet pipe 2 is connected to one side of the tank body 1, and the outlet pipe 3 is connected to the other side. An air inlet pipe 4 and an air outlet pipe 5 are symmetrically connected to the two sides of the tank body 1 perpendicular to the positions of the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3, respectively. A dispersing mechanism is provided inside the tank body 1, and a rotating mechanism is provided at the bottom of the tank body 1. A batch of moist titanium dioxide powder pigments is conveyed into the tank body 1 through the inlet pipe 2, and then dried through the air inlet pipe 5. Pipe 4, the heat pump drying system, delivers hot air into the tank 1 to dry the titanium dioxide powder pigment inside the tank 1. The air then flows back to the heat pump drying system through the air outlet pipe 5 to preheat the air. This secondary heating helps to save energy. The rotating mechanism drives the components in the dispersing mechanism to rotate inside the tank 1, automatically dispersing the titanium dioxide powder pigment at the bottom of the tank 1. The discharge pipe 3 is connected to the cyclone dust collector, which automatically discharges the dried titanium dioxide powder pigment. To ensure the drying effect of the titanium dioxide powder pigment, it is dried in batches.

[0020] The dispersing mechanism includes a rotating shaft 6, dispersing wheels 7, and guide plates 8. The rotating shaft 6 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the tank body 1, and multiple dispersing wheels 7 are rotatably connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 6. Two guide plates 8 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the inside of the tank body 1, and the positions of the two guide plates 8 are staggered. The bottom of the tank body 1 is provided with abrasive strips 19 that match the dispersing wheels 7. The output end of the rotary motor 10 drives the second bevel gear 11 to rotate. The second bevel gear 11 meshes with the first bevel gear 9, and the first bevel gear 9 is fixed to the bottom end of the rotating shaft 6 as a whole. The rotary motor 10 can drive the rotary shaft 6 to rotate at the bottom of the tank 1. The dispersing wheel 7 is connected to the rotary shaft 6. The rotary shaft 6 can drive the dispersing wheel 7 to rotate around the center of the tank 1. The bottom of the dispersing wheel 7 rubs against the abrasive strip 19 at the bottom of the tank 1, causing the dispersing wheel 7 to rotate. The dispersing wheel 7 can disperse the titanium dioxide powder pigment. The guide plate 8 plays a role in blocking the powder in the air. Large powder particles settle due to gravity, preventing the powder from flowing with the air. The sealing ring 12 can fill the gap between the rotary shaft 6 and the bottom of the tank 1 to ensure the sealing of the bottom of the tank 1.

[0021] The rotating mechanism includes a first bevel gear 9, a rotary motor 10, and a second bevel gear 11. The bottom end of the rotating shaft 6 passes through the bottom of the tank body 1 and is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear 9. The bottom of the tank body 1 is provided with a rotary motor 10, and the output end of the rotary motor 10 is fixedly connected to the second bevel gear 11. The outer walls of the first bevel gear 9 and the second bevel gear 11 mesh with each other.

[0022] A protective shell 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the tank body 1. The protective shell 13 is wrapped around the first bevel gear 9 and the second bevel gear 11. A sealing ring 12 is provided between the bottom of the tank body 1 and the bottom end of the rotating shaft 6. The output end of the rotating motor 10 and the bottom end of the rotating shaft 6 are rotatably connected to the protective shell 13.

[0023] The top of the tank 1 is connected to a bend 14, and a dehumidifying fan 15 is also installed on the top of the tank 1. The input end of the dehumidifying fan 15 is connected to one end of the bend 14. The wind speed of the dehumidifying fan 15 needs to be matched with the particle size of the powder. The critical suspension velocity, i.e. the minimum speed at which the powder particles are just carried by the airflow, is used as the benchmark. By designing the cross-sectional area of ​​the air duct, such as increasing the diameter of the outlet pipe of the drying chamber, the wind speed is reduced to below the critical value, so that large particles of powder settle due to gravity, and only fine particles or gaseous moisture are allowed to be discharged with the airflow. When the airflow turns, the powder particles hit the wall due to inertia and settle, thus discharging the water vapor generated during the drying process.

[0024] One end of the discharge pipe 3 is connected to a cyclone separator, one end of the inlet pipe 4 is connected to the heat pump drying system, and one end of the outlet pipe 5 is connected to the heat pump drying system through a return pipe. The dust-laden airflow enters the conical cylinder tangentially at a speed of 12-30 m / s. Under the constraint of the wall, a spiral downward airflow is formed. The particles are thrown towards the outer wall due to inertial centrifugal force. After losing kinetic energy, they fall along the wall to the ash discharge port. In the heat pump drying system, the refrigerant absorbs ambient heat in the evaporator and vaporizes from liquid to low-temperature, low-pressure gas. After being compressed by the compressor, the temperature rises sharply to 80℃-120℃, forming a high-grade heat source. The high-temperature gaseous refrigerant condenses and releases heat in the condenser, heating the circulating air to the target drying temperature, such as 50℃-70℃. The hot air is sent into the drying room by the fan to achieve material dehydration. The condensed liquid refrigerant is throttled and depressurized by the expansion valve and re-enters the evaporator to absorb heat, completing the closed loop of heat transfer.

[0025] The top of the feed pipe 2 is connected to the feed port 16. The inside of the feed pipe 2 is rotatably connected to the screw 18. A self-locking motor 17 is fixedly installed at one end of the feed pipe 2. The output end of the self-locking motor 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the screw 18. The wet titanium dioxide powder pigment is fed into the inside of the feed pipe 2 through the feed port 16. The self-locking motor 17 drives the screw 18 to rotate inside the feed pipe 2. The spiral blades on the outside of the screw 18 drive the titanium dioxide powder pigment to move automatically into the inside of the tank 1, so as to automatically feed the inside of the tank 1.

[0026] This energy-saving drying equipment for producing titanium dioxide powder pigments uses a rotary motor 10 to drive a second bevel gear 11 to rotate. The second bevel gear 11 meshes with a first bevel gear 9, and the first bevel gear 9 is fixed to the bottom of the rotating shaft 6. The rotary motor 10 can drive the rotating shaft 6 to rotate at the bottom of the tank 1. A dispersing wheel 7 is connected to the rotating shaft 6, and the rotating shaft 6 can drive the dispersing wheel 7 to rotate around the center of the tank 1. The bottom of the dispersing wheel 7 rubs against the abrasive strip 19 at the bottom of the tank 1, causing the dispersing wheel 7 to rotate. The dispersing wheel 7 can disperse the titanium dioxide powder pigments. The guide plate 8 acts as a barrier to block the powder in the air. Large powder particles settle due to gravity, preventing the powder from flowing with the air. This solves the problem in the existing technology where the powder easily sticks inside the equipment, making it difficult to dry, causing difficulties in later maintenance, and also causing waste.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
