Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rice drying technology, specifically to a horizontal rice dryer. Background Technology

[0002] In the rice processing industry, timely and efficient rice drying is crucial for ensuring rice quality and storage safety. Traditional sun-drying methods rely on weather, are limited by space, and have low drying efficiency, making them unsuitable for large-scale processing. Early drying equipment, such as vertical dryers, while using motor-driven agitators to tumble and dry the rice, suffered from uneven gas distribution, which could negatively impact rice quality. Horizontal rice dryers were developed to address this issue. Horizontal rice dryers feature a horizontal structure, are easy to operate, and can expand the scale of drying operations. Furthermore, the technology of accelerating drying through agitation allows for more even heating of the rice during the drying process, thereby improving drying efficiency and quality, and meeting the growing demands of the rice processing industry.

[0003] Patent publication number CN221944821U discloses a horizontal rice dryer. A motor is installed on one side of the tank. An inner liner is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the tank. The output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one side of the inner liner. A pushing device is installed inside the inner liner. The pushing device includes a push plate. The size and shape of the outer surface of the push plate are adapted to the size and shape of the inner wall of the inner liner. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the push plate. One end of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to one side of the inner wall of the inner liner. A cover is rotatably connected to one side of the tank.

[0004] To address the issue of rice being trapped deep within the inner container, making it difficult to remove and prone to waste, existing technology uses a push plate. A threaded rod moves the push plate along the inner wall of the container, allowing for easy adjustment of the push plate to move the rice from deep within to the outlet. However, this method still results in uneven drying, leading to reduced drying efficiency. Utility Model Content
