[0025] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 6This utility model provides a spiral hot air drying device, comprising: a base plate 1 and a base 3. A hot air chamber 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1, and a spiral cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 3. A blower 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the hot air chamber 2, and a drive motor 9 is installed on one side of the blower 8. An air inlet pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the blower 8 away from the drive motor 9. A support frame 10 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1, and the support frame 10 is fixedly connected to the drive motor 9. An air outlet pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the hot air chamber 2 away from the blower 8. The air duct 11 has a discharge cylinder 5 fixedly connected to one side of the spiral cylinder 4, a connecting pipe 12 fixedly connected to the side of the spiral cylinder 4 away from the discharge cylinder 5, a feed hopper 13 fixedly connected to the arc surface of the spiral cylinder 4, a spiral conveyor paddle installed on the inner wall of the spiral cylinder 4, a servo motor 14 for driving the propeller installed on the arc surface of the spiral cylinder 4, a connecting frame 16 fixedly connected to the side of the air inlet duct 15 away from the blower 8, a filter screen 17 installed on the inner wall of the connecting frame 16, a docking device 6 provided on the arc surface of the air outlet duct 11, and a cleaning device 7 provided on the inner wall of the connecting frame 16.
[0027] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 3The docking device 6 includes two fixed seats 601, both of which are fixedly connected to the air outlet pipe 11. Two side plates 602 are fixedly connected to the side of the fixed seat 601 away from the air outlet pipe 11. A rotating rod 603 is rotatably connected to the side of the two side plates 602 that are close to each other. The rotating rod 603 completely penetrates the two side plates 602. Rod heads 604 are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating rod 603. A rotating plate 606 is fixedly connected to the arc surface of the rotating rod 603. The air outlet pipe 11 is inserted into the connecting pipe 12. The cross-section of the rotating plate 606 is "L" shaped. A pressing rod 607 is threaded through the short arm end of the rotating plate 606. A round button 608 is fixedly connected to one end of the pressing rod 607. The pressing rod 607 abuts against the connecting pipe 12. A sealing ring 611 is fixedly connected to the arc surface of the air outlet pipe 11. The sealing ring 611 abuts against the inner wall of the connecting pipe 12. The process of hot air drying of the product is achieved. When it is necessary to connect or disconnect the spiral drum 4 from the hot air blower, the hot air blower and spiral drum 4 can be quickly connected and disconnected using components such as the rotating plate 606 and the extrusion rod 607, greatly saving connection and separation time and thus speeding up work efficiency. Both ends of the rotating rod 603 are fitted with coil springs 605, and the two ends of the coil springs 605 are fixedly connected to the rod head 604 and the side plate 602, respectively. This achieves the effect of automatically resetting the rotating plate 606 after rotation using the elastic force of the coil springs 605. The circular surface of the knob 608 has several anti-slip grooves 609, which are evenly distributed on the circular surface of the knob 608. This ensures that when the extrusion rod 607 needs to be rotated, the anti-slip grooves 609 on the circular surface of the knob 608 increase surface friction and prevent slippage when rotating the knob 608. An anti-wear pad 610, which is a rubber pad, is fixedly connected to the end of the extrusion rod 607 away from the round button 608. This ensures that when the extrusion rod 607 is used to further compress and fix the connection between the air outlet pipe 11 and the connecting pipe 12, the anti-wear pad 610 can reduce the degree of wear between the extrusion rod 607 and the connecting pipe 12.
[0028] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6The cleaning device 7 includes two sliding grooves 71, which are respectively opened on both sides of the inner wall of the connecting frame 16. Limiting rods 72 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sliding grooves 71. Connecting plates 73 are slidably connected to the arc surfaces of the limiting rods 72. A rectangular plate 75 is fixedly connected to the side of the two connecting plates 73 closest to each other. A cleaning brush 76 is fixedly connected to one side of the rectangular plate 75. A spring 74 is fitted onto the arc surface of the limiting rods 72, and both ends of the spring 74 are fixedly connected to the connecting plate 73 and the inner wall of the sliding grooves 71, respectively. This device addresses the issue that when the blower 8 supplies air to the hot air chamber 2 for an extended period, the filter 17 is easily clogged by dust or other impurities, causing the blower 8 to malfunction. The cleaning brush 76 can be used to clean the filter 17 periodically, ensuring the normal operation of the blower 8. A handle 77 is fixedly connected to the side of the rectangular plate 75 away from the cleaning brush 76. The handle 77 has a U-shaped cross-section. The design allows for easy and convenient operation by using the handle 77 when the cleaning brush 76 needs to be moved up and down. The inner wall of the connecting frame 16 has a slot 78, and a magnet 79 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slot 78. The rectangular plate 75 is made of iron. This design allows the rectangular plate 75 to be attracted and temporarily stored in place when the cleaning brush 76 is not in use.
[0029] The working principle of the spiral hot air drying device provided by this utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to connect the spiral cylinder 4 and the hot air chamber 2 through the connecting pipe 12 and the air outlet pipe 11, the operator first inserts the end of the air outlet pipe 11 into the port of the connecting pipe 12, so that the sealing ring 611 on the arc surface of the air outlet pipe 11 is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the connecting pipe 12 to form a preliminary seal. Then, the rotating plate 606 is turned, and the rotating plate 606 drives the rotating rod 603 to rotate between the two side plates 602. The coil springs 605 at both ends of the rotating rod 603 undergo elastic torsion as the rotating rod 603 rotates and generates an elastic force opposite to the rotation of the rotating rod 603. When the L-shaped long arm end of the rotating plate 606 rotates to the horizontal position, its short arm end is exactly located outside the connecting pipe 12. At this time, rotating the knob 608 causes the pressing rod 607 to rotate. Due to the threaded engagement between the pressing rod 607 and the short arm of the rotating plate 606, the rotational motion of the pressing rod 607 is converted into its linear movement, propelling it towards the surface of the connecting tube 12. The anti-wear pad 610 at the end of the pressing rod 607 undergoes elastic deformation upon contact with the surface of the connecting tube 12, evenly distributing the force applied by the pressing rod 607 to the outer wall of the connecting tube 12, thus enhancing the clamping effect and preventing localized wear. During the rotation of the knob 608, the anti-slip groove 609 on the arc surface of the knob 608 increases the friction between the fingers and the surface of the knob 608, ensuring that slippage does not occur when rotating the knob 608. After successful docking, the drive motor 9 is started, and the blower 8 delivers outside air to the hot air chamber 2. The hot air chamber 2 heats the incoming air, which then enters the spiral drum 4 through the outlet pipe 11 and the connecting pipe 12. At this time, the servo motor 14 is started to make the spiral conveyor paddle in the spiral drum 4 start rotating, feeding the product into the spiral drum 4 through the feed hopper 13. The product is heated and dried in the spiral drum 4 by the hot air, and then leaves the spiral drum 4 through the discharge pipe 5, completing the drying process. When it is necessary to separate the pipes, the knob 608 is rotated in the opposite direction to release the pressure of the extrusion rod 607 on the connecting pipe 12. The coil springs 605 at both ends of the rotating rod 603 release their elasticity, driving the rotating rod 603 to rotate automatically. The rotating rod 603 drives the rotating plate 606 to return to the initial position, thereby releasing the constraint on the connecting pipe 12. Then, the connecting pipe 12 and the outlet pipe 11 can be separated. The rotation of the rotating plate 606 enables the positioning and disengagement of the docking structure, the linear movement of the pressing rod 607 generates radial clamping force, the elastic recovery of the coil spring 605 enables automatic reset, and the buffering effect of the anti-wear pad 610 protects the contact surface. Ultimately, the air outlet pipe 11 and the connecting pipe 12 are quickly docked and separated, which significantly improves the efficiency and reliability of the equipment connection operation.
[0030] When dust accumulates on the surface of filter 17, affecting the normal air intake of blower 8, the operator separates rectangular plate 75 from magnet 79 in slot 78. Then, using handle 77, the operator moves rectangular plate 75 up and down. Rectangular plate 75 slides on limiting rod 72 via connecting plates 73 on both sides. At this time, spring 74 on limiting rod 72 is stretched by connecting plates 73, generating a spring force opposite to the direction of rectangular plate 75's movement. During the up-and-down movement of rectangular plate 75, the operator continuously controls its trajectory using handle 77, causing cleaning brush 76 to repeatedly scrape the surface of filter 17, removing dust particles adhering to the pores of filter 17. During cleaning, spring 74 continuously stretches and compresses as connecting plates 73 move up and down. After cleaning, handle 77 is released, and the spring force of spring 74 pulls rectangular plate 75 and cleaning brush 76 upwards. When rectangular plate 75 contacts magnet 79, they attract each other, thus securing cleaning brush 76. During the process, the displacement of the rectangular plate 75 is controlled by the traction of the handle 77, the movement trajectory is maintained by the cooperation of the connecting plate 73 and the limit rod 72, and the dust on the surface of the filter screen 17 is removed by the scraping action of the cleaning brush 76, so as to effectively maintain the unobstructed flow of the filter screen 17 and ensure that the blower 8 continuously and stably delivers air to the hot air chamber 2.
[0031] The circuits and controls involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, and will not be described in detail here.
[0032] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model.
