JPS5978670A - Apparatus for drying laver sheet - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To achieve the uniform drying of a laver sheet, by connecting plural heaters connected to respective plural sensors for detecting the water-content of a laver sheet and disposed in a drying chamber, and placing the heaters opposite to a screen web, thereby enabling the local heating of the insufficiently dried part. CONSTITUTION:The screen web M introduced into the drying chamber 2 is transferred with the sprockets S in zigzag manner, and the laver sheet (m) on the screen M is dried and wound to a roll 4. In the above drying process, partial delay in drying occurs sometimes owing to the unevenness of the thickness of the sheet (m). When the delay of drying is detected by any of the water-content detectors 5, the corresponding heater 8 is energized by the controlling circuit connected therewith, and the insufficiently dried part is locally heated and dried. The laver sheet can be dried uniformly by this process.

から剥離してしまい、縮みを生じることが多い。When seaweed is made into strips and dried while running in a drying chamber, uneven drying tends to occur, with some parts drying relatively quickly and other parts drying slowly. Additionally, in general, seaweed that spreads out into strips tends to dry faster either near the edges or near the center, and for this reason, both ends of the nori that dry quickly become strips during the drying process. It often peels off from the material and causes shrinkage.

In other words, the moisture detector 5 is installed in the relatively latter half of the drying process. ) The dried portion of the seaweed m is detected, and the undried portion is locally heated and dried by the heater 8. Also, the 21st
As shown in λ1, three minute detectors 5 are arranged in parallel along the width direction of the seaweed m, and are adapted to detect moisture at both ends and the center of the oil J moss m, respectively. Further, a heater 8 is also installed in parallel with each moisture detector 5 as Kt Ila, so as to irradiate both ends and the center of the 7ti moss, respectively.

Further, due to non-uniformity in the thickness of the seaweed m spread on the strip material M or malfunction of the drying hot air blower, the drying of one seaweed m may be partially delayed. However, in this device, the moisture in the seaweed m is detected by each moisture detector 5, and the portion where drying is delayed is detected by each moisture detector 5, and: I! The II control circuit 7 is driven to drive the heaters 8 connected to each control circuit 7, and it is possible to locally heat and dry only the portions of the seaweed m that have been delayed in drying.
