Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of drying equipment, specifically relating to a device for heating and conveying materials. Background Technology
[0002] Materials (powders, granules, filter cakes, or liquids, etc.) often require heating or heat treatment during transport to remove moisture or other volatiles. Current screw conveyors or agitated dryers typically use hot water, steam, or thermal oil for heating, with temperatures generally not exceeding 300℃ (synthetic thermal oils can reach up to 400℃). However, for high-temperature heating processes such as coal pyrolysis and catalyst roasting (or calcination), temperatures are mostly above 500℃. If a rotary kiln is used in these conditions, electric heating elements or burners (oil, gas, or coal) need to be installed between the rotating cylinder and the furnace to heat the cylinder wall, which then transfers heat to the material. This results in a relatively low filling rate and low heat exchange efficiency. If a screw conveyor or dryer is used, hot water, steam, or thermal oil cannot meet the requirements of high-temperature conditions due to temperature limitations. Utility Model Content

[0045] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the device for heating and conveying materials according to this utility model includes: a screw feeder, a shaft head, a shaft seal, and a bearing seat. The screw feeder includes a housing 6, with an inlet 23 and an outlet 24. The left and right ends of the housing 6 are respectively provided with a left end seat 10 and a right end seat 15 for sealing the housing. The left end seat 10, the right end seat 15, and the housing 6 together form a hollow cavity for receiving and conveying materials. Inside the housing 6, i.e., within the hollow cavity, is a hollow screw shaft tube 8. The axis of the hollow screw shaft tube 8 is parallel to the axis of the hollow cavity. The outer surface of the hollow screw shaft tube 8 is provided with helical blades 7, which can... The screw can be single-headed or multi-headed (lead), and the pitch can be a fixed value or a variable pitch. The hollow spiral shaft tube 8 is provided with a wire guide tube 11 inside, and a support tube 12 is provided on the outside of the wire guide tube 11. The support tube 12 is provided with end plates 13 at both ends for sealing and fixing the support tube 12. A heating element 5 is wound around the outer surface of the support tube 12. In order to improve the heat exchange efficiency, preferably, the length of the support tube 12 occupies most of the length of the hollow spiral shaft tube 8.
