Abstract

Granular conveyor drying apparatus, characterized essentially by the fact that it is constituted by a cylindrical container provided with a lid with a hermetic closure, its interior being divided into two zones by a perforated conical bottom, the upper zone of the actual deposit of the grain acting, which is introduced by one of the filling mouths that appear on the lid, while the lower zone is formed by the pressure chamber, where warm air flows, driven by a centrifugal electric fan installed next to the outer wall of the container and provided of air filter that absorbs impurities in suspension and good part of the humidity of the sucked air, heating it by some electrical resistances installed inside the outlet tube, whose end appears inside the pressure chamber, going from here, to through a blowing nozzle, to the bottom trumpet-shaped venturi of the central tube of transport, from which it ascends at great speed, dragging, by aspiration, the grains that appear around it, until transporting them to the place where the transforming machine is located, in whose path the absorption of the moisture contained in the granulated material takes place.
