PORTABLE SAND DRYING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A portable sand drying system comprising a plurality of wheeled operational units including a feed hopper, a dryer, and a screen, wherein the wheeled operational units are supported by at least two wheels while operating. One or more of the wheeled operational units include an automatic height adjuster which, when activated, automatically elevates a portion of the wheeled operational unit from a traveling height to an operating height. The plurality of wheeled operational units further includes a motor control center (MCC) to provide power and control signals to the various other wheeled operational units. Non-MCC wheeled operational units contain a pre-wired junction box, which the MCC would plug one or more cables directly into in order to provide one of power, control signals, and both power and control signals to the non-MCC wheeled operational units.
Laundry treating appliance with bulky item detection
A laundry treating appliance and method for controlling the operation of a laundry treating appliance having a rotatable drum at least partially defining a treating chamber for receiving laundry for treatment in accordance with a treating cycle of operation by determining the presence of a bulky laundry item based on image data of the laundry within the treating chamber.

POWDER DRYING SYSTEM WITH IMPROVED INLET ARRANGEMENT TO THE FILTER UNIT AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE FILTER UNIT OF SUCH A SYSTEM
The powder drying system comprises a powder processing unit (1), and a filter unit (400) defining a central vertical axis (405) and including a filtering chamber (401) accommodating a plurality of bag filters (407), each having a bag filter wall and a top opening, a top portion (402), and an exhaust chamber (403) at or near the top portion (402). The filtering chamber (401) is provided with an inlet (410) configured to allow entry of powder carrying gas to be filtered, and the exhaust chamber (403) has an outlet (420) configured to allow exhaust of filtered gas. In the filtering chamber (401), gas flows through the wall of the bag filters (407), upwards and out through the top opening of the bag filters (407), into the exhaust chamber (403) and further to the outlet (420). the inlet (410) of the filtering chamber (401) is positioned at the top portion (402) of the filter unit (400), and that said inlet (410) includes at least one inlet duct section (415) adjacent the filtering chamber (401) and arranged substantially centrally in the top portion (402) of the filter unit (400).
Lint catching system and exhaust assembly
A lint catching system is provided for a clothes dryer. The lint catching system filters lint from exhaust air expelled from the clothes dryer.
DEVICE FOR CONVEYING AND FEEDING WET MATERIAL FOR CROSS-FLOW HOT AIR COMBINE HARVESTER
A device for conveying and feeding wet material for a cross-flow hot air combine harvester, the device consisting of a hot air pumping part and a material conveying part. The hot air pumping part uses an air suction pump (4) to pump a flow of hot waste air from an engine radiator (1) of the combine harvester by means of an air suction pipeline (3) so as to provide hot air flow for the material conveying and feeding device. The material conveying part consists of a chain harrow-type conveying groove structure (A) and a cross-flow air chamber structure (B), wherein the chain harrow-type conveying groove structure (A) is located at an upper part of the cross-flow air chamber structure (B) and is used for forcibly conveying and feeding a material; and the cross-flow air chamber structure (B) uses hot air to dry the material, blows to assist in feeding the material, and uses a cross-flow air wheel (14) to forcibly feed the material. By using excess heat that is generated by the engine of the combine harvester to perform auxiliary blowing and drying during the process of conveying and feeding a wet material, the feeding device may lower the temperature of the engine and reduce the effects of heat radiation and ageing that high temperatures have on surrounding devices, and may lower the water content of a wet agricultural material, thus preventing blockages produced because of moisture.
Balanced drying system
The invention provides a balanced drying system, comprising an air supply and exhaust main pipeline, and at least two groups of drying units; the drying units each comprises a unit air supply fan and a drying oven, the drying units each is provided with a unit air inlet and a unit air outlet, the drying oven is provided with a drying oven air inlet and a drying oven air outlet, and all of the groups of the drying units are disposed in pairs at intervals on the air supply and exhaust main pipeline via the unit air inlet and the unit air outlet, the unit air inlet is connected with the drying oven air inlet, and the unit air outlet is connected with the drying oven air outlet. The invention has the advantages of concise and stable system, simple adjustment, low exhaust air volume, low energy consumption and the like.

Multistage drying apparatus and multistage drying method for sheet material to be treated
A horizontal multistage press apparatus 1 (multistage drying apparatus) includes conveyance paths R1 to R4 (first to fourth conveyance paths) in which the veneer sheet W1 (sheet material to be treated) is carried out in a standing state. The conveyance path R1 is positioned over between the loader device 10 and the hot press device 20, the conveyance path R2 is positioned over between the hot press device 20 and the open transpiration device 40, the conveyance path R3 is positioned over between the open transpiration device 40 and the temperature control press device 50, and the conveyance path R4 is positioned over between the temperature control press device 50 and the unloader device 60. The conveyance paths R1 to R4 are arranged in a straight line in plan view.
Apparatus and method for selectively withdrawing panels with different finishes
A vertical oven for drying and temporarily storing painted panels includes racks for supporting the panels; an uploading/downloading system into/from the vertical oven; and a stacker crane having two multiple forks each including a plurality of single forks, a first multiple fork withdrawing the panels from a first side of the oven and a second multiple fork withdrawing the panels from the opposed side of the oven, the panels being positioned on the racks side by side or alone based on width. A control unit controls panel uploading/downloading and/or the stacker crane through a control software. Each single fork has an independent actuator and is separately controlled by the control unit. The software configures the control unit to determine the number of single forks to be actuated according to the length of the panel to be withdrawn, and the length of the stroke of the forks based on panel width.
