Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a drying device, and more particularly to a drying and dehumidifying device. Background Technology

[0002] Non-stick pans are a very common type of cookware in modern kitchens. Their unique coating prevents food from sticking to the bottom of the pan during cooking, thus saving time and effort. During the production process, non-stick pans require a coating treatment on their outer surface. However, existing non-stick coating drying equipment often has low drying efficiency, high energy consumption, and is too small to be easily applied to non-stick pan production lines. Utility Model Content

[0003] Purpose of the utility model: To provide a drying and dehumidification device with high drying efficiency, low energy consumption, and applicability to non-stick pan production lines.

[0004] Technical solution: The drying and dehumidifying device provided by this utility model includes a control box, a drying channel, a heat pump dryer, two opening adjustment mechanisms, and two heating and drying mechanisms;

[0005] A controller is installed inside the control box; a button panel electrically connected to the controller is installed on the control box.

[0006] Two opening adjustment mechanisms are installed on the two openings of the drying channel, respectively, to block the two openings, and the blocking area is adjustable; two heating drying mechanisms are installed on both sides of the drying channel, both used to heat the air in the drying channel, and both are controlled by the controller; the position of the heating dryer is adjustable; a temperature and humidity sensor electrically connected to the controller is installed in the drying channel; a heat pump dryer is installed in the middle of the drying channel to dehumidify the air in the drying channel, and is controlled by the controller; an avoidance opening connecting the two openings is provided along the center line on the bottom plate of the drying channel; two flexible baffles with their edges abutting each other are provided on both sides of the avoidance opening.

[0007] Furthermore, the opening adjustment mechanism includes two opening adjustment branches; each opening adjustment branch includes an insert frame and multiple baffles; the insert frames of the two opening adjustment branches are fixed to the outer walls on the left and right sides of the channel opening; each baffle is slidably inserted into the insert frame and arranged vertically; one end of the baffle slides through the corresponding side wall of the channel opening and extends into the drying channel to partially block the channel opening; each opening adjustment bolt is threaded onto the insert frame, with its end for pressing against each baffle.

[0008] Furthermore, the heating and drying mechanism includes three heating branches; each heating branch includes an infrared heater and a heating position adjustment unit; the heating position adjustment units of the three heating branches are respectively installed on the upper side wall and two vertical side walls of the drying channel; the infrared heater is installed on the heating branch and located in the drying channel, and the distance between the infrared heater and the corresponding side wall is adjusted by the heating position adjustment unit; the infrared heaters of the three heating branches are all controlled by a controller.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention are as follows: Both the heating and drying mechanism and the opening adjustment mechanism can be adjusted according to the size of different batches of cookware. Adjusting the heating position of the heating and drying mechanism ensures it is close to the cookware without interfering with it, thus improving heating and drying efficiency. Adjusting the opening adjustment mechanism minimizes the obstruction area of ​​the two channel openings, allowing for the placement of cookware and clamps without interfering with their movement. This reduces heat loss without damaging the cookware surface, improving drying efficiency. The drying channel allows the drying and dehumidification device to accommodate more cookware, enabling simultaneous drying of multiple cookware on the production line without line interruption. Using a heat pump dryer for dehumidification reduces humidity within the drying channel. Compared to traditional drying methods, this application eliminates the need for excessively high temperatures within the drying channel. This system achieves effective drying, is more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly, and boasts high drying efficiency. The avoidance opening facilitates clamp penetration, eliminating the need for a conveyor line to enter the drying channel. Furthermore, two flexible baffles closely cover the avoidance opening, further reducing heat loss and improving drying efficiency. Temperature and humidity sensors allow the controller to monitor the temperature and humidity within the drying channel. Based on the detected temperature values, the controller controls the heating and drying mechanisms to maintain the temperature within the preset threshold range. Similarly, based on the detected humidity values, the controller controls the heat pump dryer to maintain the humidity within the drying channel below the preset threshold. A display screen shows the current temperature and humidity under the controller's control. A button panel allows for direct control of the heat pump dryer and the two heating and drying mechanisms, while also facilitating threshold adjustments for different batches of cookware.

[0021] Both the heating and drying mechanism and the opening adjustment mechanism can be adjusted according to the size of different batches of cookware. Adjusting the heating position of the heating and drying mechanism ensures it is close to the cookware without interfering with it, improving heating and drying efficiency. Adjusting the opening adjustment mechanism minimizes the obstruction area of ​​the two channel openings, allowing for the supply of cookware and clamps without interfering with their movement. This reduces heat loss without damaging the cookware surface, improving drying efficiency. The drying channel 1 allows the drying and dehumidification device to accommodate a large number of cookware, enabling simultaneous drying of multiple cookware on the production line without stopping the line. Using a heat pump dryer 11 for dehumidification reduces the humidity within the drying channel 1. Compared to traditional drying methods, this application achieves effective drying without excessively high temperatures within the drying channel 1, making it more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. High drying efficiency; the avoidance opening 9 facilitates the insertion of the clamps, eliminating the need for a conveyor line to enter the drying channel 1, and the edges of the two flexible baffles 10 fit together to block the avoidance opening 9, further reducing heat loss and improving drying efficiency; the temperature and humidity sensors facilitate the controller to monitor the temperature and humidity within the drying channel 1. Based on the detected temperature values, the controller controls the heating and drying mechanism to keep the temperature within the drying channel 1 within a preset temperature threshold range, and based on the detected humidity values, the controller controls the heat pump dryer 11 to keep the humidity within the drying channel 1 below a preset humidity threshold; the display screen 14 displays the current temperature and humidity under the control of the controller, and the button panel 15 allows for direct control of the heat pump dryer 11 and the two heating and drying mechanisms via the controller, while also facilitating threshold adjustments for different batches of cookware.

[0022] Furthermore, the opening adjustment mechanism includes two opening adjustment branches; the opening adjustment branches include an insert frame 3 and multiple retaining bars 4;

[0023] The insertion frames 3 of the two opening adjustment branches are vertically fixed to the left and right outer walls of the channel opening, respectively; each baffle 4 is horizontally slidably inserted into the insertion frame 3, and each baffle 4 is arranged vertically; each baffle 4 of one opening adjustment branch corresponds horizontally to each baffle 4 of the other opening adjustment branch; a sliding groove is horizontally provided on the upper edge of each baffle 4; a sliding strip is provided on the lower edge of each baffle 4 to slide and cooperate with the sliding groove on the baffle 4 adjacent to the lower side; the baffle 4 of the two opening adjustment branches slide and seal through the left and right side walls of the channel opening, and the extended ends of the two horizontally corresponding baffle 4 are used to fit together; a pull tab 5 perpendicular to the baffle 4 is provided on the other end of the baffle 4; multiple opening adjustment bolts 6 are threaded onto the insertion frame 3, and the ends of each opening adjustment bolt 6 are used to press tightly against each baffle 4 on the insertion frame 3.

[0024] The installation method of the baffle strips 4 achieves partial obstruction of the channel opening. The various baffle strips 4 work together to adjust the passage range of the channel opening, thereby accommodating cookware of different sizes and reducing heat loss. After pulling the baffle strip 4 by the pull tab 5, tightening the corresponding opening adjustment bolt 6 locks the position of the baffle strip 4, so that no further adjustment is needed when drying the same batch of cookware.
