[0015] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Example

[0016] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention proposes a vehicle-use environmentally friendly desiccant re-drying device, including a drying barrel 1, a bracket 2 connected to the outer ring of the drying barrel 1, the bracket 2 being fixedly connected to the drying barrel 1, an E-shaped air outlet pipe 3 connected to one side of the drying barrel 1, the end of the E-shaped air outlet pipe 3 near the drying barrel 1 being fixedly connected to it and connected to the compartment 17, a motor 4 being located at the center of the top surface of the drying barrel 1, the motor 4 being fixedly connected to the drying barrel 1, a feed hopper 5 being located on one side of the motor 4 on the top surface of the drying barrel 1, the feed hopper 5 being fixedly connected to the top surface of the drying barrel 1, and an exhaust pipe 6 being connected to the top surface of the drying barrel 1 on one side of the motor 4, the exhaust pipe 6 being fixedly connected to the top surface of the drying barrel 1. A hot air conveying pipe 7 is connected to one side of the drying barrel 1. The hot air conveying pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the drying barrel 1, and its outlet end passes through the drying barrel 1 and is connected to the processing chamber 14. A heater 8 is connected to the inlet end of the hot air conveying pipe 7. The heater 8 is fixedly connected to the hot air conveying pipe 7 and is connected to the hot air conveying pipe 7. A fan 9 is installed on the top surface of the heater 8. The fan 9 is fixedly connected to the heater 8. A one-way ventilation valve is installed on the outer wall of the outlet pipe of the fan 9 at a position below the cold air conveying pipe 10. The one-way ventilation valve prevents hot air from entering the cold air conveying pipe 10. A cold air conveying pipe 10 is installed on one side of the outlet pipe of the fan 9. The cold air conveying pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the outlet pipe of the fan 9. An air filter 11 is connected to the air inlet pipe of the blower 9. The air filter 11 is fixedly connected to the air inlet pipe. The air filter 11 includes a housing 111. Multiple filter elements 112 are connected inside the housing 111. The filter elements 112 are fixedly connected to the housing 111. An opening is opened on the top surface of the housing 111. An air outlet is opened on the bottom surface of the housing 111 and is correspondingly connected to the air inlet pipe of the blower 9. A discharge hopper 12 is connected to the bottom of the drying barrel 1. The discharge hopper 12 is fixedly connected to the drying barrel 1. A preheating chamber 13 is connected inside the drying barrel 1. The preheating chamber 13 is fixedly connected to the drying barrel 1. The feed hopper 5 is connected to the preheating chamber 13. The preheating chamber 13 is equipped with a processing chamber 14 at the bottom, and a cooling chamber 15 is equipped with a cooling chamber 15 at the bottom of the processing chamber 14. The discharge hopper 12 is connected to the cooling chamber 15. The outer ring of the E-type air outlet pipe 3 connected to the processing chamber 14 and the cooling chamber 15 is equipped with a one-way air valve 2. The one-way air valve 2 is fixedly connected to the E-type air outlet pipe 3. By setting the one-way air valve 2, it can be ensured that the cold air in the cooling chamber 15 will not flow into the processing chamber 14 and the preheating chamber 13 when the gas is flowing, so as to avoid affecting the efficiency of desiccant pretreatment and re-drying. The preheating chamber 13 includes a fixed frame 16 connected to the inner wall of the drying barrel 1. The fixed frame 16 is fixedly connected to the drying barrel 1. The inner ring of the fixed frame 16 is connected to the bin body 17, and the bin body 17 is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 16. By setting the fixed frame 16, the stability of the bin body 17 can be increased. Temperature and humidity sensors are fixedly connected to the top surface of the bin body 17. The bottom surface of the bin body 17 is inclined. The inclined bottom surface of the bin body 17 facilitates the discharge and transfer of materials. The outer bottom surface of the bin body 17 is connected to the discharge pipe 18, and the discharge pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the bin body 17. Solenoid valves are fixedly connected to the outer ring of the discharge pipe 18. By setting the temperature and humidity sensors, the temperature change inside the bin body 17 can be detected. When the temperature inside the bin body 17 reaches a certain threshold, it can be fed back to the control center to adjust the temperature of the heater 8, or the solenoid valves on the discharge pipe 18 can be controlled to open for material discharge. A stirring assembly is rotatably connected inside the chamber 17. The remaining two chambers have the same structure as the preheating chamber 13. The stirring assembly includes a stirring shaft 191 rotatably installed inside the chamber 17. An auger blade 192 is connected to the outer ring of the stirring shaft 191. The auger blade 192 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 191. A coupling 193 is connected to the end of the stirring shaft 191 that is close to each other between the preheating chamber 13, the processing chamber 14, and the cooling chamber 15. The top end of the stirring shaft 191 located in the preheating chamber 13 passes through the chamber 17 and is connected to the output end of the motor 4. Through the arrangement of the stirring shaft 191 and the auger blade 192, the desiccant can be continuously stirred during the preheating, processing, and cooling processes, increasing its contact area, shortening the drying time, and improving the drying efficiency.

[0017] In this embodiment, the desiccant is fed into the preheating chamber 13 through the feed hopper 5. The solenoid valve on the discharge pipe 18 connected to the bottom of the preheating chamber 13 is opened, and the desiccant enters the processing chamber 14 through the preheating chamber 13. When the amount of desiccant in the processing chamber 14 reaches a certain level, the solenoid valve at the bottom of the preheating chamber 13 is closed, and desiccant continues to be poured into the preheating chamber 13. When the amount of desiccant in the preheating chamber 13 reaches the same level as that in the processing chamber 14, the pouring stops, and the heater 8 and fan 9 are started, along with the motor 4. The output end of motor 4 drives the stirring shaft 191 and auger blades 192 to rotate, tumbling and stirring the desiccant in the chamber 17. Air is filtered by air filter 11 and delivered to heater 8 by fan 9 for heating. The heated hot air is delivered to processing chamber 14 through hot air delivery pipe 7 to dry the desiccant in chamber 17. The hot air in processing chamber is then delivered to preheating chamber 13 through E-type air outlet pipe 3 to preheat the desiccant in preheating chamber 13. The exhaust gas is then discharged through exhaust pipe 6. Once the desiccant in the processing chamber 14 reaches the set dryness level, it is transferred to the cooling chamber 15 for cooling via the discharge pipe 18 at the bottom of the processing chamber 14. After the desiccant in the processing chamber 14 is emptied, the solenoid valve at the bottom of the preheating chamber 13 is opened, and the desiccant in the chamber 17 enters the processing chamber 14 through the discharge pipe 18 for drying. Then, untreated desiccant is poured into the preheating chamber 13 for pre-processing. The cold air conveying pipe 10 continuously delivers cold air to the cooling chamber 15 to cool the processed desiccant. The hot air generated during the cooling process is delivered to the preheating chamber 13 through the E-type air outlet pipe 3. When the temperature of the desiccant in the cooling chamber 15 drops to a certain value, the one-way vent valve 2 on the pipe connected to the cooling chamber 15 is closed to prevent cold air from entering the preheating chamber 13 and affecting the pre-processing effect. The cooled and processed desiccant in the cooling chamber 15 is discharged through the discharge pipe 18 connected at the bottom and then discharged through the discharge hopper 12 for further use.
