Abstract
A drying device is configured with a sensor corresponding to an air knife-nozzle, and a control switch which suspends an operation of the device when the air knife-nozzle is detected as working abnormally, thereby preventing abnormal products from being produced due to the failure of finding an abnormal condition of the air knife-nozzle in time, ensuring the normal process of the product, and avoiding the nonessential economic loss.
