SAWDUST DRYING DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sawdust drying device configured so that a drying wind is sent into a payout restrictor at the bottom of a sawdust stagnation part where no temperature rise is expected above the sawdust to be dried, the temperature difference is eliminated at the contacting surfaces of the sawdust to be dried and the sawdust in the payout restrictor, bedewing is precluded on the sawdust flow-down surface in the sawdust drying device, and that the sawdust to be dried in a drier chamber is allowed to flow down smoothly. SOLUTION: The sawdust drying device is configured so that the drying wind and/or burnt wind generated by burning at a burner 22 in a drying wind blowing part 21 is fed from a pressure feed passage 33 into one or more payout restrictors 9, and upon passing a suction passage 34, is exhausted to outside of a suction blower 25.
