Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dryer technology, and in particular to a dryer that is easy to feed. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of crop drying, the feeding process of traditional drying equipment largely relies on manual operation or simple mechanical transmission, resulting in significant technical bottlenecks. When manually transporting crops to the feed inlet of the drying chamber, material spillage often occurs due to positioning errors, and the labor intensity is high, with long feeding times per batch and low efficiency. Although some equipment adopts automated feeding structures such as conveyor belts, the lack of precise angle adjustment and position control mechanisms makes it difficult to adapt to drying chambers of different sizes. Furthermore, dead corners for material accumulation easily form at the junction of the conveyor belt and the roller, causing not only material waste but also mold growth on the inner wall of the equipment due to the long-term retention of damp material, affecting the hygiene and safety of subsequently dried crops. Especially in food-grade drying scenarios, there is a risk of cross-contamination. In addition, the flexibility of traditional feeding mechanisms is insufficient. When dealing with crops with different characteristics such as rice, fruits, and vegetables, it is impossible to adapt to their physical properties through parameter adjustments. For example, high-speed feeding of dry grains can easily cause particle breakage due to impact, while low-speed feeding of fruits and vegetables with high moisture content can easily cause blockages, resulting in poor equipment versatility. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a dryer with convenient feeding. This solves the problem that when manually transporting crops to the feed inlet of the drying box, material often spills due to positioning errors, resulting in high labor intensity, long feeding time per batch, and low efficiency. Although some equipment adopts automated feeding structures such as conveyor belts, it is difficult to adapt to different specifications of drying boxes due to the lack of precise angle adjustment and position control mechanisms. In addition, dead corners for material accumulation are easily formed at the junction of the conveyor belt and the roller, which not only causes material waste, but also leads to mold growth on the inner wall of the equipment due to long-term retention of damp material, affecting the hygiene and safety of subsequent dried crops, especially in food-grade drying scenarios, where there is a risk of cross-contamination.
