[0048] Two conveyor chains 3 are respectively wound around two sets of sprockets 2, and the sprockets tension and drive the conveyor chains;

[0049] The dyeing tank 4 is fixedly installed inside the dyeing machine body and located at one end of it;

[0050] Several support frames 5 are evenly spaced and fixed at both ends on the outer sections of the two conveyor chains.

[0051] Specifically, the sprocket assembly 2 includes:

[0052] Four first wheel bodies 21 form a rectangular distribution of the conveyor chain and are simultaneously rotated on the inner wall of the dyeing machine.

[0053] Two second-round bodies 22 are of the same height and are mounted on the inner wall of the dyeing machine.

[0054] Two third wheel bodies 23 are of the same height and are rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the dyeing machine. The height of the third wheel body is lower than that of the second wheel body.

[0055] Specifically, the support frame 5 includes:

[0056] Straight rod 51, with telescopic ends;

[0057] Two U-shaped clamps 52 are respectively clamped onto the outer sections of the two conveyor chains and secured with screws 521.

[0058] Two insertion holes 53 are located in the middle of the two U-shaped plates, and the two ends of the straight rod are inserted into the two insertion holes respectively;

[0059] Several fixing pins 54 are arranged perpendicularly to the straight rod and at equal intervals.

[0060] Specifically, the two ends of the straight rod are respectively rotated and inserted into two insertion holes, and a small gear 511 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the straight rod. A short rack 13 and a long rack 14 are also fixedly installed on the dyeing machine body. The short rack is located near one end of the dyeing tank, and the long rack is located on the same side as the short rack. During the movement of the straight rod, the small gear on it meshes with the short rack and the long rack respectively.

[0061] Specifically, it also includes a detachable partition 6 installed inside the dyeing machine body. The partition is located below several suction hoods, and several small balls after dyeing pass above the partition.

[0062] Specifically, the partition plate 6 is provided with a plurality of wavy through grooves 61 at equal intervals.

[0063] Specifically, it also includes a power unit 7 that drives the two sets of sprockets, the power unit comprising:

[0064] The transmission rod 71 is fixedly mounted at both ends on the first wheel body of one of the two sets of sprockets, and is coaxial with the first wheel body;

[0065] The geared motor 72 is fixed to the inner wall of the dyeing machine.

[0066] Two fourth wheel bodies 73, one of which is fixedly sleeved on the transmission rod, and the other is fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the geared motor;

[0067] The transmission chain 74 is wound around the two fourth wheel bodies, driving the two fourth wheel bodies to rotate synchronously.

[0068] Working principle: First, several spherical items are fixed on several fixing pins. Then, the two ends of a straight rod are inserted into two insertion holes. Two U-shaped clamps are fixedly connected to two conveyor chains. When the power unit drives the two conveyor chains, it moves several support frames, and the spherical items on the support frames move. Through the setting of two second wheels and two third wheels, the support frames located at that position move downwards, causing the spherical items on the support frames to enter the dyeing tank. They move horizontally within the dyeing tank. During this process, the pinion and short rack... The meshing mechanism causes the straight rod to rotate, causing several spherical items on it to rotate around the rod's axis, thus dyeing the spherical items. The dyeing tank is filled with dye, and the two conveyor chains continue to run, removing the dyed spherical items from the dyeing tank. After passing through several suction hoods, the air pump is activated to extract air from the suction pipes, thereby extracting air from the suction hoods and drying the spherical items. Once the spherical items are dry, the two ends of the straight rod can be removed from the two insertion holes, and the straight rod, along with the several spherical items on it, can be removed together.

[0069] The geared motor starts and drives the fourth wheel, which is fixedly mounted on its output shaft, to rotate. This drives the transmission chain to run, causing the fourth wheel, which is fixedly mounted on the transmission rod, to rotate. The transmission rod then drives the first wheel on one of the two sets of sprockets to rotate, thus ultimately making the two conveyor chains run synchronously and causing several support frames to move synchronously. This allows for batch dyeing of spherical items on several support frames, achieving automated and continuous batch dyeing.

[0070] After dyeing, when the support frame passes between the partition and the suction hood, the pinion meshes with the long rack, causing several spherical items on the support frame to rotate around the straight rod as the axis, so that the spherical items are dried evenly. Then, as they pass through the wavy groove on the partition, the direction of airflow is changed, so that the airflow can surround the surface of the spherical items, further improving the uniformity of the drying process and making the spherical items dry evenly and uniformly.

[0071] The above description is merely a selection of preferred embodiments of this disclosure and an explanation of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the invention involved in the embodiments of this disclosure is not limited to technical solutions formed by specific combinations of the above-described technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by arbitrary combinations of the above-described technical features or their equivalents without departing from the above-described inventive concept.
