An apparatus for drying bulk particulate material, and having an inlet chamber for receiving a moist bulk particulate material and an outlet chamber for ejecting a dry bulk particulate material. The inlet chamber comprises a steam permeable bottom being divided into a number of subsections including a first subsection and a second subsection. Each subsection defines a first and a second radial centreline. The first subsection and the second subsection each having at least one louvered plate section comprising a plurality of louvers arranged in a first and a second specific direction, respectively, for directing superheated steam in a first and second blowing direction, towards said lower cylindrical inner wall. The specific direction of the louvers of the first subsection defines a first angle in relation to the first radial centre-line, and specific direction of said louvers of said second subsection defines a second angle in relation to said second radial centreline, and said first angle and/or said second angle, being different from 0 degrees.

A hay bale dryer features a support frame inside of which there is delimited at least one bale space and at least one manifold carrying a set of aeration spears movable between a deployed position penetrating the bale space and a retracted position withdrawn therefrom. The manifold is moved between the positions by way of an actuator driven linkage, and the aeration spears comprise hollow elongated bodies of tapered thickness toward their distal ends for more effective penetration of the hay bales. A manufacturing method uses a hydraulic press to produce the hollow elongated bodies from lengths of originally cylindrically pipe. Horizontal feeding tables and upright feeding racks feature displaceable bale movers for moving queued hay bales along one or more queuing lanes into one or more bale dryers.

Disclosed is a shoe care apparatus including: a cabinet; a chamber provided in the cabinet for accommodating a shoe; a machine room provided to accommodate a heat pump which heats the air supplied to the chamber and dehumidifies the air discharged from the chamber; an air supply duct which connects the chamber to the machine room; an air supply port which is provided in the sidewall of the chamber such that the air flowing along the air supply duct is supplied into the chamber through the air supply port; a support member which is provided on the sidewall of the chamber to be adjacent to the air supply port; and a shoe hanger which includes a pair of support arms that are accommodated in the chamber, that are configured to be inserted into , is detachably installed on the support member, and has a hollow inside such that the air supplied from the air supply port may flow therein, wherein the shoe hanger has a sterilization device provided in the hollow inside and the support member is provided with a power supply part which applies power to the sterilization device.

The present invention relates to a system for one pot solids recovery from solutions, slurries, emulsions, dispersions, gels, semisolids, and their like. Further the system can be used for controlled concentration of solutions, slurries, emulsions, dispersions, gels, semisolids, and their like to enable easy to operate cost effective energy efficient processes. The system is so constructed to enhance the contact between the liquid medium and the gaseous medium used in the process for effective heat transfer. The system can be used for controlled concentration and/or recovery of substantially dry solids in applications related to foods, nutraceuticals, natural products, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, etc.

Disclosed is a washstand cabinet. The washstand cabinet includes a washstand having a water supply valve and a washing bowl in which water is accommodated, a housing provided under the washstand to define an external shape thereof and having a modular space therein, and an air-conditioning module configured to discharge air outward from the housing or to move air into the modular space inside the housing.

A foam drying apparatus is provided. The apparatus is configured to pass air, and in some cases heated and/or dried air, through a quantity of foam. This air passing through the foam absorbs or otherwise carries moisture out of the foam, drying it. The apparatus may utilize a pressure differential on opposite sides of the foam, causing air on the higher pressure side to pass through the foam. Typical applications may include the drying of foam assemblies which use water based adhesives to accelerate drying of the adhesive and/or removal of water from the foam assembly, and packaging of the foam assembly.

A feed-through ultrasonic cleaning system for winding of a large-sized superconducting coil, including a sealed chamber system, a main ultrasonic cleaning system, a deionized water spraying system, a compressed air blow-drying system, an automatic control system. During the winding of an armored superconducting coil, a superconducting conductor which is fed at a constant speed successively passes through a sealed chamber, an ultrasonic cleaning chamber, a first compressed air blow-drying chamber, a deionized water spray chamber, and a second compressed air blow-drying chamber in the ultrasonic cleaning system. By integrating mechanical dynamic sealing, ultrasonic cleaning and automatic control, the present invention meets a special requirement of removing oil and completely cleaning the conductor during the winding of large-sized superconducting coils.
