Currently, some manure treatment equipment based on technologies such as high-temperature drying, natural sun-drying, or fermentation has emerged on the market. However, these devices often have limitations in their mechanical structure design, consume a lot of energy, and have low processing efficiency. In addition, some equipment has poor adaptability to different materials during operation, making it difficult to meet the needs of farms of different sizes.
[0003] For example, the Chinese invention patent (application number: 202110234567.8) discloses a "drying device for livestock and poultry manure," whose specification states that it includes a drying chamber, a stirring shaft inside the drying chamber, multiple sets of stirring blades mounted on the stirring shaft, a feed inlet on one side of the drying chamber, a discharge outlet on the other side, a hot air inlet at the top of the drying chamber, and a dehumidification outlet at the bottom. The stirring shaft is connected to a drive motor via a transmission mechanism. This application improves drying efficiency by combining stirring and hot air; however, in practical applications, the design of its stirring structure has limited ability to uniformly process materials, and the equipment maintenance is relatively complex. The aforementioned patent can corroborate the shortcomings of the existing technology.
[0004] Therefore, we have made improvements to this and proposed a drying equipment for livestock and poultry manure. Utility Model Content

[0018] This utility model provides a drying device for livestock and poultry manure, the specific implementation of which is described in conjunction with the attached drawing. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 Please provide a detailed explanation. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the equipment includes a drying main structure 1, a stirring and conveying assembly 2, and a hot air circulation assembly 3. The drying main structure 1 is a rectangular sealed box, inside which the stirring and conveying assembly 2 is located. A driving device 8 and a driven device 9 are respectively located at both ends of the stirring and conveying assembly 2. The hot air circulation assembly 3 is located at the top of the drying main structure 1 and is connected to the drying main structure 1 via a pipe. A guide plate 16 is provided on the outer side of the stirring and conveying assembly 2. The guide plate 16 is fixed to the inner wall of the drying main structure 1, and multiple flow channels are formed between the guide plates 16, which guide the flow of materials.
[0019] The specific structure of the mixing and conveying component 2 is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a spiral shaft 4, with multiple spiral blades 5 welded to its surface. Crushing teeth 6 are located between adjacent spiral blades 5, with tapered ends. Several through holes 7, ranging in diameter from 2mm to 5mm, are formed on the surface of the crushing teeth 6. One end of the spiral shaft 4 is connected to a drive device 8 via a bearing, and the other end is connected to a driven device 9 via a bearing. The drive device 8 includes a motor and a reducer. The motor is connected to the input shaft of the reducer via a coupling, and the output shaft of the reducer is fixedly connected to the spiral shaft 4 via a keyway. Driven by the drive device 8, the spiral shaft 4 rotates, and the spiral blades 5 push the material along the axial direction of the spiral shaft 4. Simultaneously, the crushing teeth 6 crush the material. The through holes 7 on the surface of the crushing teeth 6 allow some fine particles to pass through during the crushing process, thereby increasing the uniformity of the material.
[0020] The specific structure of the hot air circulation component 3 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the system includes a hot air chamber 10, with a hot air outlet 11 at the bottom, connected to the main drying structure 1 via a pipe. An air inlet 12 is located at the top of the hot air chamber 10, with a filter screen 13 installed at the inlet 12. The filter screen 13 has a mesh size of 80 to 120 mesh. Heating tubes 14 are arranged in a U-shape and fixed to the inner wall of the hot air chamber 10, with both ends bolted to the inner wall. A fan 15 is also installed inside the hot air chamber 10, fixed to the inner wall by a bracket, with its outlet facing the hot air outlet 11. When the fan 15 is started, air enters the hot air chamber 10 through the air inlet 12, is filtered by the filter screen 13, heated by the heating tubes 14, forming hot air, which then enters the main drying structure 1 through the hot air outlet 11.
[0021] The specific structure of the deflector 16 is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the system includes multiple inclined guide vanes 17, with an inclination angle of 30° to 45°. The surface of each guide vane 17 is coated with a wear-resistant coating with a thickness of 0.5 mm to 1 mm. A support frame 18 is located at the bottom of the guide plate 16. The support frame 18 is bolted to the inner wall of the drying main structure 1. The support frame 18 has an L-shaped cross-section. The vertical portion of the support frame 18 is welded to the bottom of the guide plate 16, and the horizontal portion is bolted to the inner wall of the drying main structure 1. The design of the guide vanes 17 allows the material to flow along a specific path inside the drying main structure 1, preventing material accumulation.
[0022] The bottom of the drying main structure 1 is provided with a dehumidification port 19, which is connected to an external dehumidification system through a pipe. A baffle 20 is provided inside the dehumidification port 19, which is connected to the inner wall of the port 19 via a hinge. A counterweight 21 is provided at the bottom of the baffle 20, and the weight of the counterweight 21 is 0.5 kg to 1 kg. Figure 5 As shown, the baffle 20's opening and closing degree is adjusted by the counterweight 21. When the internal moisture pressure of the drying main structure 1 is high, the baffle 20 automatically opens to discharge moisture; when the moisture pressure is low, the baffle 20 closes to reduce heat loss. The drying main structure 1 has a feed inlet 22 on one side and a discharge outlet 23 on the other side. Both the feed inlet 22 and the discharge outlet 23 are connected to external pipes via flanges. The feed inlet 22 has a guide plate 24 inside, with an inclination angle of 45° to 60° and an anti-slip texture on its surface. The design of the guide plate 24 allows materials to smoothly enter the drying main structure 1 without clogging.
[0023] In practical applications, the material enters the drying main structure 1 through the feed inlet 22, and the guide plate 24 guides the material to the working area of the mixing and conveying component 2. After the drive device 8 is started, the motor drives the spiral shaft 4 to rotate through the reducer, and the spiral blades 5 push the material to move axially along the spiral shaft 4. At the same time, the crushing teeth 6 crush the material and separate some fine particles. After the fan 15 in the hot air circulation component 3 is started, air enters the hot air box 10 through the air inlet 12, is filtered by the filter screen 13, and is heated by the heating tube 14 to form hot air. The hot air enters the drying main structure 1 through the hot air outlet 11 and comes into contact with the material. The guide plate 16 guides the material to flow along a specific path, increasing the contact time between the material and the hot air and improving the drying efficiency. The moisture generated during the drying process is discharged through the vent 19, and the baffle 20 automatically adjusts the opening and closing degree according to the moisture pressure to control the amount of moisture discharged. After drying is completed, the material is discharged from the discharge port 23.
[0024] In the above embodiments, the connection and positional relationships between the components are clear, and the stirring and conveying assembly 2 and the hot air circulation assembly 3 work together to achieve efficient drying of livestock and poultry manure.
[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand and implement this utility model, the specific implementation principles of this utility model are further explained below in conjunction with specific application scenarios.
[0026] First, the material is conveyed to the feed inlet 22 via an external conveying device, and the guide plate 24 guides the material to the working area of the mixing and conveying assembly 2. The guide plate 24 is designed with an inclination angle of 45° to 60°, and its surface is provided with anti-slip texture to effectively prevent material accumulation or blockage during entry. After the material enters the drying main structure 1, the drive device 8 is started, and the motor drives the spiral shaft 4 to rotate through the reducer. The spiral blades 5 then push the material along the axial direction of the spiral shaft 4. At the same time, the crushing teeth 6 crush the material. The conical design of its ends can effectively cut into the material blocks, while the through holes 7 on the surface of the crushing teeth 6 allow some fine particles to pass through, thereby improving the uniformity of the material. This process, through the combination of mechanical force and structural design, achieves adaptive processing of materials with different particle sizes, significantly improving the equipment's adaptability to materials.
[0027] Next, the hot air circulation assembly 3 starts working. After the fan 15 starts, air enters the hot air chamber 10 through the air inlet 12. The filter screen 13 installed at the air inlet 12 can effectively filter impurities in the outside air, ensuring the quality of the air entering the system. The filtered air is heated by the heating tubes 14 to form hot air. The heating tubes 14 are arranged in a U-shape, which increases the heat exchange area and improves the heating efficiency. The hot air enters the drying main structure 1 through the hot air outlet 11 and comes into contact with the material. Due to the design of the guide plate 16, the material flows along a specific path inside the drying main structure 1, increasing the contact time between the material and the hot air, thereby improving the utilization rate of the hot air. The tilt angle of the guide plate 17 is 30° to 45°, and the wear-resistant coating on its surface effectively extends the service life of the guide plate 16 while reducing the frictional resistance during the material flow process.
[0028] During the drying process, the moisture in the material gradually evaporates, forming humid air, which is discharged through the vent 19. The baffle 20's opening and closing degree is adjusted by a counterweight 21. When the internal humid air pressure of the drying main structure 1 is high, the baffle 20 automatically opens to discharge the humid air; when the humid air pressure is low, the baffle 20 closes to reduce heat loss. This design achieves a dynamic balance between humid air discharge and heat retention through a simple mechanical structure, ensuring both drying effect and reduced energy consumption.
[0029] Finally, the thoroughly dried material is discharged from the outlet 23. The outlet 23 is connected to an external pipeline via a flange, facilitating integration with other equipment and enabling continuous production. Throughout the process, the mixing and conveying assembly 2 and the hot air circulation assembly 3 work together. The material is continuously moved forward by the screw shaft 4, while being crushed by the crushing teeth 6 and continuously heated by the hot air, ultimately reaching the ideal dry state. Through the above steps, this invention achieves highly efficient drying of livestock and poultry manure, solving the problems of high energy consumption, low processing efficiency, and poor adaptability to materials in existing technologies, demonstrating significant technological progress and practicality.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
