Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coating reactor technology, and in particular to a stirring shaft and its vertical coating reactor. Background Technology
[0002] The coating tank in continuous granulation equipment is a commonly used industrial device, mainly used to form granules from powdered or granular raw materials through physical or chemical processes. Its working principle involves gradually heating the raw materials and mixing them with additives using mechanical and thermal forces to form a mixture with a certain moisture content. Then, the mixture is continuously propelled into the granulation chamber by rotation or vibration, undergoing processes such as compression, shaping, and solidification to ultimately form the desired granules.
[0003] The existing continuous granulation production method involves loading powder into a coating vessel, adding it to the surface of the vessel to make the powder boil (fluidize), then adding a mist binder. Under the protection of a nitrogen atmosphere, the powder mixed with additives is heated and stirred. During the boiling process, the surface tension of the liquid material increases, and the particles agglomerate and stick together to form the particles required by the process. Hot air is then introduced to dry the material, which is then transported to the granulation and drying reactor for further processing.
[0004] However, existing coating reactors are all horizontally positioned, similar to cooling reactors, and the powder requires prolonged stirring inside the reactor to achieve thorough and uniform mixing. Consequently, a significant number of powder particles remain in the agglomerated powder. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a vertical rotary continuous granulation equipment to meet practical application requirements. Utility Model Content

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by adopting a "sickle" shaped stirring blade, the blade extends to the outer periphery of the shaft through the rod body. At the same time, the side wall of the shaft is also provided with several cutting plates with an arc-shaped structure.

Detailed Implementation
[0021] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0022] For this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-5 The specific implementation of the stirring shaft 3 includes a shaft 31 and several stirring blades 32.

The stirring blades 32 include a blade part 321 and a rod part 322. The blade part 321 is tumbled to one end of the rod part 322, and the other end of the rod part 322 is fixedly connected to the shaft 31. The blade part 321 extends to the periphery of the shaft 31 through the rod part 322. The side wall of the shaft 31 is also provided with several cutting plates 34.
