Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drying equipment technology, specifically a drying equipment for paper mills. Background Technology

[0002] The drying unit in a paper mill is a key piece of equipment in the pulp and paper production process. Its main function is to quickly remove moisture from the wet paper web by heating, transforming the initially formed wet paper into finished paper with the required dryness. The unit usually consists of multiple drying cylinders or drums, drying tunnels, and a supporting ventilation system. It uses high-temperature airflow generated by steam, heat transfer oil, or electric heating to contact the wet paper, promoting the evaporation and discharge of moisture, thereby improving the drying efficiency and quality of the paper. The drying process requires precise control of temperature, speed, and tension to avoid paper shrinkage, deformation, or damage to strength, while also taking into account energy conservation and production efficiency, providing dry paper substrate that meets the process requirements for subsequent calendering, winding, and other processes. However, when existing drying equipment is in use, the lack of an efficient waste heat recovery system leads to a large amount of waste heat being lost with the exhaust air, resulting in high energy consumption of the drying equipment. At the same time, during the paper drying process, the existing drying equipment is not adaptable to paper of different thicknesses, and it is difficult to effectively clamp paper of different thicknesses and control the squeezing function.

[0003] Therefore, a drying device for paper mills is needed to improve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

An electrically controlled cylinder is embedded in the top outer wall of the fixed frame. Two sets of electrically controlled cylinders are provided and are respectively located on the top outer wall of the fixed frame. One end of the electrically controlled cylinder passes through the fixed frame and extends into the inner cavity of the fixed frame to install a pressing base. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the opposing inner walls of the pressing base.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a pressing roller is installed on the outer wall of the rotating rod, wherein the rotating rod is provided in two sets and is located on the inner wall opposite to the pressing base, and the outer wall of the rotating rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove, and the pressing roller is located directly above the transmission roller.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the waste heat utilization component includes an air guide shell, which is embedded in the outer wall of the mounting base. The cross-section of the air guide shell is L-shaped. The air guide shell is located directly above the heating and drying drum. A connecting groove is sequentially opened from left to right on the outer wall of the air guide shell, which is located directly above the heating and drying drum. An air guide ventilation fan is installed on the inner wall of the connecting groove.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the air guide fan is provided in multiple sets and is located on the inner wall of the connecting groove, and a connecting seat is installed on the side wall of the air guide housing, wherein the connecting seat is provided in two sets and is located on the outer wall of the air guide housing.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, one end of the connecting seat penetrates through the air guide housing and extends to the inner wall of the air guide housing to install a surrounding pipe, wherein the surrounding pipe is located in the inner cavity of the air guide housing, and the other end of the connecting seat is equipped with a connecting pipe, one end of the connecting pipe is equipped with a circulating water pump, and one end of the surrounding pipe is connected to the outer wall of the circulating water pump.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a circulating water pipe is installed at one end of the circulating water pump, wherein two sets of circulating water pipes are provided and are respectively located at the inlet and outlet of the circulating water pump, and a hollow shell is installed at one end of the circulating water pipe.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, this invention enables the compression of paper of different thicknesses by setting a pressing component in the drying device used in paper mills. The controller controls the operation of the electric cylinder, which in turn drives the pressing base downward. This causes the pressing base to move downward via a rotating rod, which in turn moves the pressing roller downward. This causes the pressing roller to move to one side of the conveyor roller, thus initially compressing and limiting the raw paper on the outer wall of the conveyor roller. When the set parameters are reached, the operator turns off the controller.

A ventilator guides hot air through a connecting slot into the inner cavity of the ventilator housing, while an exhaust fan operates simultaneously, creating airflow within the housing. A controller then activates a circulating water pump, injecting heat-conducting oil into its pipeline. This circulation of the oil allows it to absorb heat as it flows around the pipes. When the oil is injected into the hollow shell through the circulating water pipe, it raises the shell's temperature, preheating the raw paper inside. This process utilizes the waste heat generated by the device, solving the problem of high energy consumption in existing drying systems due to the lack of an efficient waste heat recovery system, which leads to significant waste heat loss during exhaust.

[0019] In this embodiment, specific references Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The waste heat utilization component 7 includes an air guide housing 701, which is embedded in the outer wall of the mounting base 1. The air guide housing 701 has an L-shaped cross-section and is located directly above the heating and drying drum 8. A connecting groove 702 is sequentially formed on the outer wall of the air guide housing 701 from left to right, with the connecting groove 702 located directly above the heating and drying drum 8. Multiple sets of air guide fans 703 are installed on the inner wall of the connecting groove 702. Two sets of connecting seats 704 are installed on the side wall of the air guide housing 701, each located on the outer wall of the air guide housing 701. One end of each connecting seat 704 penetrates the air guide housing 701 and extends to the inner wall of the air guide housing 701, where a surrounding pipe is installed. 705, wherein the surrounding pipe 705 is located in the inner cavity of the air guide housing 701, the other end of the connecting seat 704 is equipped with a connecting pipe 706, one end of the connecting pipe 706 is equipped with a circulating water pump 707, and one end of the surrounding pipe 705 is connected to the outer wall of the circulating water pump 707. One end of the circulating water pump 707 is equipped with a circulating water pipe 708, wherein two sets of circulating water pipes 708 are provided and are respectively located at the inlet and outlet of the circulating water pump 707. One end of the circulating water pipe 708 is equipped with a hollow housing 709, which is embedded in the port of the mounting base 1. The hollow housing 709 is located on one side of the transmission roller 4. One side of the surrounding pipe 705 and on the side wall of the air guide housing 701 is equipped with an exhaust fan 710, wherein multiple sets of exhaust fans 710 are provided and are respectively located on the side wall of the air guide housing 701.

[0020] Based on the above structural features and connection relationships, a water storage tank is provided directly below the surrounding pipe 705 and on the inner wall of the air guide housing 701, and the water storage tank is located directly below the exhaust fan 710. The controller 2 is electrically connected to the drive motor 3, the heating and drying drum 8, the electric cylinder 502, the air guide fan 703, the circulating water pump 707, and the exhaust fan 710 via wires. This connection enables the device to be powered on, thereby allowing the controller 2 to control the operation of the drive motor 3, the heating and drying drum 8, the electric cylinder 502, the air guide fan 703, the circulating water pump 707, and the exhaust fan 710.

[0021] This solution is used in a paper mill drying device. During operation, raw paper is placed into the device, positioned on the outer wall of the conveyor roller 4. The controller 2 is then turned on, causing the drive motor 3 to operate. The drive shaft of the drive motor 3 drives the conveyor roller 4, which then conveys the raw paper. Subsequently, the controller 2 controls the heating and drying roller 8 to heat and dry the raw paper. Simultaneously, the controller 2 is turned on again, causing the electrically controlled cylinder 502 to operate, thereby activating the electrically controlled cylinder 502. One end of 2 drives the lower pressure base 503 to move downward, which causes the lower pressure base 503 to drive the lower pressure roller 505 to move downward via the rotating rod 504. This causes the lower pressure roller 505 to move towards one side of the transmission roller 4, thereby causing the lower pressure roller 505 to initially squeeze and limit the raw material paper on the outer wall of the transmission roller 4. When the set parameters are reached, the operator turns off the switch of controller 2, thus solving the problem that the existing drying device has insufficient adaptability to different thicknesses of paper during the paper drying process, making it difficult to effectively clamp paper of different thicknesses and control the squeezing function. By turning on the switch of controller 2, controller 2 controls the air guide fan 703 to operate. The air guide fan 703 guides the hot air generated by the rotating heating drying drum 8, causing the hot airflow to enter the inner cavity of the air guide housing 701 through the connecting groove 702. Simultaneously, controller 2 controls the air guide fan 703 to operate, causing the exhaust fan 710 to operate, thus creating airflow within the inner cavity of the air guide housing 701. Subsequently, when the airflow passes through the surrounding pipe 705, the surrounding pipe 705 absorbs the heat from the hot airflow. Meanwhile, controller 2... The circulating water pump 707 is operated, and heat transfer oil is injected into the pipeline of the circulating water pump 707. This causes the circulating water pump 707 to drive the heat transfer oil in the pipeline to circulate. As the heat transfer oil surrounds the pipe 705, it absorbs heat. When the heat transfer oil is injected into the hollow shell 709 through the circulating water pipe 708, it raises the temperature of the hollow shell 709, thereby preheating the raw material paper inside the hollow shell 709. This utilizes the waste heat of the device, thus solving the problem that existing drying devices, due to the lack of an efficient waste heat recovery system, result in a large amount of waste heat being lost with the exhaust air, leading to high energy consumption of the drying device.

Their structure, circuit, and control principle are all existing known technologies. Therefore, the structure, circuit, and control principle of the drive motor 3, heating and drying drum 8, electrically controlled cylinder 502, air guide fan 703, circulating water pump 707, exhaust fan 710, and controller 2 will not be described in detail here.
