Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment technology, specifically a drying device for white balls. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, drying is a crucial step in the production and processing of white spheres. White spheres are typically made of polymers such as polystyrene-divinylbenzene copolymers. During their production, after polymerization and washing processes, a certain amount of moisture remains on the surface and inside. If this moisture is not removed promptly, it will have many adverse effects on subsequent processing and use.

[0003] Existing white ball drying equipment mostly uses traditional hot air drying methods, which suffer from low drying efficiency, uneven heating of the white balls, and a tendency for some white balls to be over-dried while others are still undried. Furthermore, some drying equipment uses stirring to achieve uniform drying, but during the heating and drying process, the loss of moisture from the white balls increases their brittleness. Prolonged stirring can easily cause the white balls to break, affecting product quality. Therefore, we have proposed a white ball drying device to address the aforementioned problems.

[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] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention provides a technical solution: a drying device for white balls, including a device body 1, an air outlet hood 2 fixed on the top of the device body 1, a fan 3 installed on the upper end of the air outlet hood 2, an air outlet on the upper part of the fan 3 connected to an exhaust pipe 4, and a protective door 9 installed on the front side of the device body 1. The protective door 9 is composed of tempered glass and a stainless steel frame, which facilitates observation of the drying process inside the device body 1.

[0025] The main body 1 of the device is fixed with an inner support 10. The inner support 10 is provided with a spacer net 16 on the upper side and the left and right sides. The inner support 10 is fixed with a sliding support 14. The upper side of the sliding support 14 is provided with a white ball holding basket 13. The lower part of the inner support 10 is provided with a limiting slide groove 15. The limiting slide groove 15 is connected to an installation bracket 12. The installation bracket 12 is equipped with a fan 11.

[0026] Furthermore, the rear side of the inner support 10 is closely attached to the rear inner wall of the main body 1, and the front side of the inner support 10 is closely attached to the inner wall of the protective door 9, so that the internal space of the inner support 10 forms an independent space within the main body 1. This ensures that the white balls in the white ball holding basket 13 can be blown up and down normally within the inner support 10 without scattering into the main body 1, thus ensuring that the white ball drying process proceeds normally. There is a gap between the left and right sides of the inner support 10 and the left and right side walls of the main body 1.

[0027] Furthermore, the inner support 10 has multiple layers inside the main body 1, increasing the amount of white balls that can be placed. Each inner support 10 has a set of fans 7 and heating devices 8 horizontally aligned on both sides of the heating hood 5, ensuring that the white balls are properly heated and dried. Heating from both sides also improves the drying efficiency.

[0028] Furthermore, the white ball holding basket 13 forms a pull-out structure on the sliding support 14 inside the inner bracket 10, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the white ball holding basket 13 and the loading and unloading of the white balls. The front and rear sides of the white ball holding basket 13 are also tightly connected to the inner rear wall of the device body 1 and the inner wall of the protective door 9, respectively, which not only ensures the stability of the white ball holding basket 13, but also prevents the volleyballs from spilling out of the white ball holding basket 13.

[0029] Furthermore, the fans 3 11 are arranged in a matrix on the mounting bracket 12, which is located directly below the white ball holding basket 13. This allows for uniform airflow to the white ball holding basket 13, ensuring that the white balls move evenly up and down, thereby achieving uniformity in the drying process and improving drying efficiency. In addition, the mounting bracket 12 carries the fans 3 11 and forms a pull-out structure with the limiting slide groove 15 below the inner bracket 10, which facilitates the disassembly, assembly, and maintenance of the fans 3 11.

[0030] Furthermore, both the white ball holding basket 13 and the spacer mesh 16 are stainless steel mesh structures with the same mesh diameter. This allows the spacer mesh 16 to both enclose and restrict the white balls that are being blown by the wind, and to ensure that the hot air flows normally, thus ensuring the normal drying of the white balls.

[0031] Heating covers 5 are fixed on both sides of the main body 1 of the device. An air filter 6 is provided at the opening on the outside of the heating cover 5. A fan 7 and a heating device 8 are installed inside the heating cover 5. The heating device 8 is located between the fan 7 and the main body 1 of the device. The heating device 8 uses an electric heating tube, which can heat and dry quickly.

[0032] Specifically, when using the white ball drying device, first place an appropriate amount of white balls into the white ball holding basket 13, then open the protective door 9, push the white ball holding basket 13 with white balls into the inner support 10, and ensure the stability of the white ball holding basket 13 by the sliding support 14.

[0033] Inside the main body 1 of the device, white ball holding baskets 13 with white balls are arranged sequentially on each layer of the inner support 10. After the white balls are arranged, the protective door 9 is closed. The protective door 9 supports the white ball holding baskets 13 and the inner support 10 to ensure that the white ball holding baskets 13 are stable. Then, the fan 3 11 on the mounting bracket 12 is started to blow air upward. When the white balls in the white ball holding baskets 13 are blown upward by the downward air, they will tumble upward in the inner support 10, thereby realizing the movement of the white balls.

[0034] At the same time, the second fan 7 and the heating device 8 inside the heating cover 5 are started, and hot air is blown directly from the left and right sides of the white ball holding basket 13 to make the white balls churn. As the second fan 7 continues to blow hot air into the main body 1 of the device, its internal temperature rises. With the blowing of the third fan 11 below, the white balls are dried quickly.

[0035] During the drying process of the white balls, the blower 3 is started simultaneously, which can exhaust the humid air in the drying process from the main body 1 of the device to improve the drying efficiency. The above is the working process of the white ball drying device. All contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

[0036] Although the present invention 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 invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
