Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of iron powder drying technology, and in particular to an iron powder drying device. Background Technology

[0002] After iron powder is produced, it needs to be dried to prevent oxidation and rust, and to extend its shelf life. Existing drying equipment typically involves placing large quantities of iron powder in a drying chamber for heating and drying. However, when the iron powder accumulates, moisture within the pile is trapped and difficult to drain, affecting the drying effect. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an iron powder drying device that breaks up the iron powder during heating and drying to allow for the full drainage of moisture, overcoming the shortcomings of current applications and meeting current requirements. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an iron powder drying device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An iron powder drying device includes a drying chamber, a steam exhaust pipe, a tilting mechanism, a vibration mechanism, a screen, a heater, and a frame. A support shaft is fixed to the outside of the drying chamber and rotatably connected to the frame. A tilting mechanism for rotating the drying chamber is mounted on the frame. A vibration mechanism is mounted on the side of the drying chamber. Multiple screens are fixed inside the drying chamber. A heat-conducting plate is fixed to the lower end of the interior of the drying chamber, and a heater is mounted below the heat-conducting plate. Steam exhaust pipes connected to the upper and lower ends of the side of the drying chamber are fixed. The vibration mechanism includes a second motor, a drive shaft, and eccentric wheels. The second motor is fixed to the side of the drying chamber, and the drive shaft is rotatably connected to the side of the drying chamber. Multiple eccentric wheels are fixed on the output shaft of the drive shaft.

[0006] Preferably, the flipping mechanism includes a first motor, a first gear, and a second gear. The first motor is fixed on the frame, the first gear is fixed on the output shaft of the first motor, and a second gear is provided on one side of the first gear to mesh with it. The second gear is fixed on the support shaft.

[0007] Preferably, the top of the drying box is provided with a feeding port, and an end cap is detachably connected to the feeding port by threads. The bottom of the drying box is provided with a discharge port, and a baffle for blocking the discharge port is detachably installed on the drying box.

[0008] Preferably, two retaining sleeves are fixed on the baffle, and two pins that can be detachably installed on the drying box are inserted into the retaining sleeves.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In use, the iron powder drying device heats the drying chamber with a heater. Iron powder is added through the feeding port, and the end cover is closed. The iron powder falls onto the screen. A second motor drives the transmission shaft and eccentric wheel to rotate. The rotation of the eccentric wheel vibrates the drying chamber, which transmits the vibration to the screen. The mesh of the screen disperses the iron powder, allowing moisture to escape. Simultaneously, a turning mechanism rotates the drying chamber up and down every 30 seconds. During rotation, the turning mechanism first rotates the drying chamber 180° clockwise and then 180° counterclockwise, repeating this process. This allows the iron powder to repeatedly pass through the screen, ensuring sufficient moisture removal. The moisture generated during drying is discharged through the moisture outlet pipe. After drying, the baffle is removed, and the iron powder is taken out from the feeding port. In summary, this utility model disperses the iron powder during heating and drying, ensuring sufficient moisture removal. Attached Figure Description

A support shaft 103 is fixed to the outside of the drying chamber 1, and the support shaft 103 is rotatably connected to the frame 9. A turning mechanism 5 for turning the drying chamber 1 is installed on the frame 9. During operation, the turning mechanism 5 turns the drying chamber 1 up and down once every thirty seconds. When turning, the turning mechanism 5 first turns the drying chamber 1 180° clockwise and then turns the drying chamber 1 180° counterclockwise, and so on. A vibration mechanism 6 is installed on the side of the drying chamber 1. Multiple screens 7 are fixed inside the drying chamber 1. The iron powder is dispersed through the mesh of the screens 7 so that the moisture in the iron powder can be discharged. A heat-conducting plate 105 is fixed at the lower end of the interior of the drying chamber 1. A heater 8 is installed on the lower side of the heat-conducting plate 105. Water vapor discharge pipes 2 are fixed at both the upper and lower ends of the side of the drying chamber 1 and are connected to it. The water vapor generated during drying is discharged from the water vapor discharge pipes 2.

[0019] The top of the drying chamber 1 is provided with a feeding port 101, and an end cap 102 is detachably connected to the feeding port 101 by threads. The bottom of the drying chamber 1 is provided with a discharge port 104. A baffle 3 for blocking the discharge port 104 is detachably installed on the drying chamber 1.

The second motor 601 drives the transmission shaft 602 and the eccentric wheel 603 to rotate. The rotation of the eccentric wheel 603 vibrates the drying chamber 1, which transmits the vibration to the screen 7. The mesh of the screen 7 disperses the iron powder, allowing the moisture in the iron powder to be discharged. At the same time, the turning mechanism 5 turns the drying chamber 1 up and down once every thirty seconds. During the turning, the turning mechanism 5 first turns the drying chamber 1 180° clockwise and then turns it 180° counterclockwise. This process is repeated, allowing the iron powder to repeatedly pass through the screen 7, so that the moisture in the iron powder can be fully discharged. The moisture generated during drying is discharged from the moisture discharge pipe 2. After drying, the baffle 3 is removed, and the iron powder is taken out from the feeding port 104.
