Description
A DRYER DIRECTLY CONTACTING WITH HEATING DEVICE USING VIBRATION
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a dryer, and more particularly to a direct-contact type dryer having a dryer unit in the form of multi-stages, which injects moisture contained powder material into the center of a dryer plate, to which heating medium including steam, hot water, electric heat and hot oil is provided, to dry the powder material while vibrating and radially transporting the same about the dryer plate.
Background Art
In general , it has been widely known that in the art of paper, food, chemistry and so forth, raw material in a state of powder should be very often dried. Particularly, moisture contained in powdered food material may cause a fast deterioration to the material, thereby spoiling the same.
Meanwhile, as described above, examples of methods for drying powder material used in the art of paper, food, chemistry and so forth include a solar drying, a hot air drying, a freeze drying and so on. It has, however, been known that the methods have some limitations. That is, the solar drying method has a problem of low productivity because of considerably long drying time period, foreign substances mixed in powder material and consumption of massive labor power.
Also, while the hot air drying and the freeze drying methods have a merit in that a large quantity of the powder material can be dried at one time as compared with time and effort required for drying, they have a problem in that the powder material is lost in unexpectedly large quantities.
A hot air drying method of the prior art is disclosed FIGS. 1A and IB of Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-255194 entitled "Vibrating Separator Having Improved Drying Abili ty. " Although the method has an effect of roughly removing moisture contained in powder material, it also has a problem in that powder material is lost in considerably great quantities because powder material dispersed by air flowing from one side to the other side is discharged at the same time to a collector on hot air generated by a hot air dryer. Also, a drying effect can be degraded because drying is carried out using hot air, which requires that intensity and quantity of hot air should be increased so as to improve drying effect.
Further, the prior technology disclosed in FIGS. 1A and IB of Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-255194 has a problem in that a process becomes complicated and facility investment should be excessively conducted.
