Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment technology, and in particular to a high-efficiency drying equipment for ceramic molds. Background Technology
[0002] The main function of drying ceramic molds is to remove free and adsorbed water from the green body, improve the strength of the green body, and prevent cracking and deformation caused by excessive moisture evaporation during subsequent demolding, trimming, and firing processes. Uniform drying also ensures stable shrinkage of the green body, reduces internal stress, and thus improves the dimensional accuracy and yield of the product. In addition, the surface of the dried mold is easier to glaze, which helps to obtain a dense and uniform ceramic texture after firing.
[0003] Traditional drying equipment has the following shortcomings: On the one hand, hot and humid gas carrying a large amount of moisture is directly discharged without dehumidification and recycling, resulting in serious waste of heat energy and low drying efficiency; on the other hand, rectangular ceramic molds lack reliable clamping and rotating dehydration structures, making the molds easy to loosen when fixed, and the dehydration process mostly relies on manual operation or does not have a rotation function, resulting in unstable fixing, inconvenient dehydration and unsatisfactory results. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a high-efficiency drying device for ceramic molds. A heater delivers hot airflow into the mounting housing via a second pipe to dry the rectangular ceramic mold. The humid air is then sent to a dehumidifier via a first connecting pipe for dehumidification. The dried hot airflow then flows back into the first connecting pipe via a third connecting pipe, where it is recycled with fresh hot airflow into the mounting housing, thus improving thermal energy utilization. Simultaneously, a support plate is installed at the output end of an electric push rod. This support plate, in conjunction with a rotating rod, drives a fixing block and flexible clips to secure the rectangular ceramic mold. A liquid-cooled motor then rotates to remove water, facilitating installation and improving stability and dehydration efficiency.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A high-efficiency drying device for ceramic molds includes a mounting shell. A heater is fixedly connected to the bottom rear side of the mounting shell.

A clamping component is installed inside the support plate. An air outlet slot is opened on the rear side of the mounting shell.
[0007] The clamping assembly includes a rotating rod rotatably connected inside the support plate. Opposite threaded grooves are provided on both sides of the rotating rod. Two fixing blocks are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod. The bottom of the fixing blocks is slidably connected inside the support plate.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a high-efficiency drying device for ceramic molds, comprising a mounting shell 1, a heater 20 fixedly connected to the bottom rear side of the mounting shell 1, hot air being blown out from inside by a fan, an inlet / outlet slot 18 for air intake of the heater 20 on the bottom left side of the mounting shell 1, a second connecting pipe 21 fixedly connected to the right side of the heater 20, the top of the second connecting pipe 21 fixedly connected to the inside of the mounting shell 1, a dehumidification assembly mounted on the left side of the mounting shell 1, and an electric push rod 6 fixedly connected to the inside of the mounting shell 1, the output end of the electric push rod 6 being fixedly connected to... Mounting base 10, with a liquid-cooled motor 11 fixedly connected inside. The liquid-cooled motor 11 cools down by circulating coolant. The output end of the liquid-cooled motor 11 is fixedly connected to a support plate 12. A clamping assembly is installed inside the support plate 12. An air outlet slot 19 is provided on the rear side of the mounting housing 1. A rotating cover 2 is rotatably connected to the top front side of the mounting housing 1. A transparent plate 3 is fixedly connected inside the rotating cover 2. A water storage tank 5 is provided at the bottom of the mounting housing 1. A water outlet pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom front side of the mounting housing 1 for draining water. A waterproof plug is provided on the front side of the water outlet pipe 4.
[0025] Specifically, during operation, the rectangular ceramic mold 8 is fixed on the support plate 12, and the electric push rod 6 drives the support plate 12 to retract. The heater 20 draws in outside air through the inlet / outlet slot 18 on the bottom left side, heats it to form a hot airflow, and sends it into the mounting shell 1 through the second connecting pipe 21 to force-dry the rectangular ceramic mold 8. At the same time, the liquid-cooled motor 11 drives the support plate 12 to rotate, using centrifugal force to help remove residual moisture from the mold surface. The condensate generated during the drying process is collected in the water storage tank 5 and discharged through the water outlet pipe 4. This structure achieves the synergistic effect of hot air drying and rotary dehydration, significantly improving drying efficiency.
[0026] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The dehumidification assembly includes a first connecting pipe 7 fixedly connected to the left side of the mounting housing 1, a dehumidifier 23 fixedly connected to the rear side of the first connecting pipe 7, and a valve 17 fixedly connected to the front side of the dehumidifier 23 to the outer wall of the mounting housing 1. A valve 17 is installed inside the first connecting pipe 7 to control the airflow. A third connecting pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the right side of the dehumidifier 23. The right side of the third connecting pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the inside of the second connecting pipe 21. The second connecting pipe 21 and the third connecting pipe 22 are connected. Two baffles 9 are fixedly connected inside the mounting housing 1. The baffles 9 are located on one side of the first connecting pipe 7 and the second connecting pipe 21.
[0027] Specifically, after the hot and humid airflow dries the mold inside the mounting housing 1, the moisture-laden air enters the dehumidifier 23 via the first connecting pipe 7 on the left side. A valve 17 inside the first connecting pipe 7 controls the airflow. The dehumidifier 23 separates the moisture from the air, converting it into a dry, hot airflow, which then flows through the third connecting pipe 22 into the second connecting pipe 21. This dry airflow, along with the fresh hot airflow generated by the heater 20, is then sent into the mounting housing 1, achieving hot air recycling. Furthermore, two baffles 9 are fixed inside the mounting housing 1, respectively positioned on one side of the first connecting pipe 7 and the second connecting pipe 21, to guide the airflow and prevent short circuits. This circulating dehumidification design effectively reduces heat loss and improves energy efficiency.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clamping assembly includes a rotating rod 13 rotatably connected inside the support plate 12. Opposite threaded grooves are provided on both sides of the rotating rod 13. Two fixing blocks 14 are threadedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 13. The bottom of the fixing blocks 14 is slidably connected inside the support plate 12. A flexible clamping strip 15 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing blocks 14. A rectangular ceramic mold 8 is provided on the top of the support plate 12. The outer wall of the rectangular ceramic mold 8 is clamped inside the fixing blocks 14 on both sides. An mounting block 16 is fixedly connected inside the mounting housing 1. The top of the mounting block 16 is set as an inclined surface that matches the bottom of the support plate 12.
[0029] Specifically, during operation, the operator rotates the rotating rod 13 inside the support plate 12. Since the rotating rod 13 has opposite threaded grooves on both sides, the two fixing blocks 14 will move synchronously in opposite directions inside the support plate 12, thereby clamping or releasing the rectangular ceramic mold 8. A flexible locking strip 15 is fixed inside the fixing block 14, which can increase friction and prevent damage to the mold surface. An installation block 16 is also fixed inside the mounting housing 1. Its top is set as an inclined surface that matches the bottom of the support plate 12. When the support plate 12 moves forward, the inclined surface can limit the movement.
[0030] Working principle: First, open the rotating cover 2 and place the rectangular ceramic mold 8 on the support plate 12. Then, rotate the rotating rod 13 inside the support plate 12. The opposing threaded grooves on both sides of the rod drive the two fixing blocks 14 to move synchronously towards each other, so that the flexible clips 15 inside the fixing blocks 14 clamp the mold, completing the fixing. After closing the rotating cover 2, start the electric push rod 6. The output end of the electric push rod 6 drives the mounting base 10 and the internal liquid-cooled motor 11 to retract, so that the support plate 12 moves into the mounting shell 1. Then, start the heater 20. The heater 20 draws in outside air through the inlet / outlet slot 18 on the bottom left and heats it to form a hot airflow. The hot airflow is sent into the mounting shell 1 through the second connecting pipe 21 to force-dry the rectangular ceramic mold 8. At the same time, the liquid-cooled motor 11 drives the support plate 12 to rotate, using centrifugal force to assist in the removal of the mold. Residual moisture on the mold surface; the hot and humid gas generated during the drying process enters the dehumidifier 23 through the first connecting pipe 7 on the left side of the mounting shell 1. The valve 17 inside the first connecting pipe 7 controls the airflow. The dehumidifier 23 separates the moisture in the air and converts it into a dry and hot airflow, which then flows into the second connecting pipe 21 through the third connecting pipe 22. It then flows into the mounting shell 1 together with the fresh hot airflow generated by the heater 20, realizing the recycling of heat energy. Two baffles 9 fixed inside the mounting shell 1 are respectively set on one side of the first connecting pipe 7 and the second connecting pipe 21 to guide the airflow direction and prevent short circuits. The condensate generated during the drying process is collected in the water storage tank 5 at the bottom and discharged through the water outlet pipe 4 at the bottom front side. Excess gas is discharged from the air outlet 19 at the rear side. The operator can observe the internal drying situation by rotating the transparent plate 3 on the cover 2.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
