Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bentonite drying technology, and more specifically, to a rotary device for drying bentonite. Background Technology

[0002] Bentonite, also known as bentonite, soapstone, or bentonite rock, is a non-metallic mineral with montmorillonite as its main mineral component. Montmorillonite has a 2:1 crystal structure consisting of two silicon-oxygen tetrahedra sandwiching a layer of aluminum-oxygen octahedra, giving it unique physical and chemical properties. Bentonite is relatively moist after mining and requires drying.

[0003] A search revealed that utility model patent CN216308474U discloses a rotary device for drying bentonite. The rotary device includes: a base plate and support frames symmetrically arranged on the upper surface of the base plate; two rotating wheels rotatably connected to each support frame; a cylinder rotatably connected between the two rotating wheels; a stirring component comprising a support rod, a stirring rod, and a sleeve; one end of the support rod being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylinder; vertical rods arranged in an equidistant array on the support rod; the sleeve being installed at the lower end of the vertical rods; the stirring rod being fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sleeve; and a limiting component comprising a ring fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylinder. This patent allows the stirring rod, fixed to the sleeve, to stir the bentonite inside the cylinder during rotation, breaking up clumps of clay and achieving a better drying effect.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned patent still has the following shortcomings: the position of the stirring rod is fixed, which makes it difficult to ensure that the bentonite will come into contact with the stirring rod, thus failing to guarantee the effect of crushing the bentonite; and the bentonite will generate a certain amount of dust when discharged, which will affect the surrounding environment if not treated. Therefore, we have proposed a rotary device for drying bentonite. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a rotary device for drying bentonite.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a second gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the rotary furnace cylinder, a second motor is fixedly installed on the side of one of the rotating frames, and a first gear is fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the second motor, with the first gear and the second gear meshing with each other.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a control panel is fixedly installed on the side of the supporting inclined platform.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0014] (1) In this utility model, the bentonite to be dried is introduced into the inner cavity of the rotary furnace cylinder by the feeding mechanism. At the same time, the third motor drives the rotating rod and the crushing knife to rotate. When the bentonite enters the inner cavity of the rotary furnace cylinder, it falls onto the crushing knife. The crushing knife completely crushes the bentonite to ensure the quality of subsequent drying of the bentonite. When the rotary furnace cylinder rotates, it drives the spiral plate to rotate. The spiral plate stirs the bentonite to ensure that the bentonite is completely dried.

[0015] (2) In this utility model, when bentonite falls from the bottom of the rotary kiln, the suction pump is used to generate suction force in the dust hood. The suction force of the dust hood is used to draw the dust generated when the bentonite falls into the inner cavity of the filter box. The filter screen is used to filter and intercept the dust, thus realizing the function of treating the dust generated when the bentonite falls. The filtered hot air enters the inner cavity of the preheating cylinder through the air guide pipe, which generates heat on the storage cylinder and preheats the bentonite in the inner cavity of the storage cylinder, thus realizing the recovery and utilization of the residual hot air from the drying of bentonite.

[0040] In this embodiment, the device is controlled using the control panel 34.

[0041] Working Principle: In operation, the bentonite to be dried is first placed into the inner cavity of the storage cylinder 29, allowing it to enter the inner cavity of the feeding cylinder 28. The first motor 31 is started, driving the screw conveyor 32 to rotate. The screw conveyor 32 pushes the bentonite into the inner cavity of the rotary furnace cylinder 3. Simultaneously, the third motor 12 is started, driving the rotating rod 13 and the crusher 14 to rotate. The crusher 14 crushes the bentonite entering the inner cavity of the rotary furnace cylinder 3. Additionally, the second motor 35 is started, driving the first gear 36 to rotate. The meshing transmission between the first gear 36 and the second gear 37 drives the rotary furnace cylinder 3 to rotate, causing the bentonite inside the rotary furnace cylinder 3 to rotate and gradually move forward and downward.

Simultaneously, the electric heating tube 25 is energized to generate heat, and the blowing... Fan 26 draws outside air into the inner cavity of the blower 24, and the air is heated by heating element 25, allowing the hot air to enter the inner cavity of the rotary furnace 3 for drying the bentonite. Then, as the bentonite moves within the rotary furnace 3, it is agitated by spiral plate 38 to ensure the quality of the drying process. The dried bentonite is discharged from the bottom of the rotary furnace 3. Finally, the exhaust pump 22 is activated to draw air from the inner cavity of the filter box 17, using the filter... The negative pressure inside the chamber 17 causes the suction pipe 19 and the suction hood 20 to generate suction. The suction of the suction hood 20 is used to draw the dust generated when the bentonite falls into the inner chamber of the filter chamber 17. The filter screen 21 filters and traps the dust. The filtered hot air enters the inner chamber of the preheating cylinder 30 through the air guide pipe 23, so that heat is generated on the storage cylinder 29, thereby preheating the bentonite in the inner chamber of the storage cylinder 29, and the hot air is discharged from the exhaust port 33.
