Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of zinc pyridinethione production technology, specifically to a high-efficiency zinc pyridinethione production device. Background Technology
[0002] Zinc pyrithione (ZPT) is a high-grade bioactive regulator with excellent anti-phospholipid and anti-seborrheic properties. As a broad-spectrum, low-toxicity, and environmentally friendly inhibitor of fungi and bacteria, it can be widely used in various work and life applications. The whiteness of zinc pyrithione is an important indicator of a product; for example, its use in shampoos directly affects the shampoo's appearance. The main factors determining the appearance of zinc pyrithione are the control of the synthesis process and the influence of impurities. Most existing technologies use sodium pyrithione and zinc sulfate to complex at room temperature. Zinc sulfate contains heavy metal ions such as iron, nickel, copper, and chromium ions, which can complex with sodium pyrithione to form colored complexes, thus affecting the whiteness of zinc pyrithione.
[0003] In existing technologies, zinc powder is typically used to remove impurities from zinc sulfate. Since different impurities react with zinc powder at different times, existing equipment usually involves multiple displacement tanks to purify zinc sulfate in order to ensure that the impurities react fully. This results in multiple pieces of equipment occupying a large area and having high production costs.

Detailed Implementation
[0025] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a high-efficiency pyridinethione zinc production device includes a purification kettle 1. A first purification chamber 4 is located on the upper part of one side of the purification kettle 1, and a zinc powder feeding port 34 is located at the top of the other side of the purification kettle 1. The first purification chamber 4 has a feed inlet 5, through which zinc sulfate solution and zinc powder from the first purification chamber 4 are added. An overflow port 6 is provided between the top of one side wall of the first purification chamber 4 and the top of the purification kettle 1. A baffle plate 7 is vertically installed inside the first purification chamber 4, and a flow channel 8 is provided between the bottom of the baffle plate 7 and the bottom of the first purification chamber 4. A liquid outlet assembly is located at the bottom of the first purification chamber 4, including a liquid outlet, a liquid outlet pipe 9, and a liquid outlet valve 10. A detachable filter screen 11 is installed below the first purification chamber 4. The filter screen 11 is horizontally positioned, and zinc powder is placed onto the filter screen 11 through the zinc powder feeding port 34.
[0027] In this invention, metal ion impurities in the zinc sulfate solution first undergo a displacement reaction with zinc powder in the first purification chamber 4. As the solution volume increases in the first purification chamber 4, the solution that has undergone the displacement reaction leaves from the overflow port 6 and undergoes a secondary displacement reaction when passing through the filter screen 11. This allows impurities with different reaction times to come into contact with and react with the zinc powder, improving the purification efficiency of zinc sulfate and reducing the equipment footprint. The filter screen 11 also separates the displaced solid impurities from the solution. The baffle plate 7 prevents the added solution from leaving directly from the overflow port 6, which would affect the effect of the primary displacement reaction. The remaining solution in the first purification chamber 4 is discharged through the outlet pipe 9.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, a stirring assembly is installed in the first purification chamber 4, which can drive the filter screen 11 to move vertically. The stirring assembly ensures that the zinc powder and zinc sulfate solution are in full contact for the first displacement, while simultaneously moving the filter screen 11 up and down, ensuring that the zinc powder on the filter screen 11 is in full contact with the solution undergoing the second displacement, thus ensuring the purification effect of the second displacement reaction. Specifically, the stirring assembly includes a first motor 12, which is located on the outer side wall of the purification vessel 1. The output end of the first motor 12 is connected to a drive shaft 13, which is horizontally positioned. The end of the drive shaft 13 away from the first motor 12 passes through the side wall of the purification vessel 1, the flow channel 8, and extends into the first purification chamber 4. Several stirring rods 14 are installed on the drive shaft 13, located on both sides of the baffle plate 7, and the stirring rods 14 do not interfere with the baffle plate 7. A driven shaft 15 is installed below the filter screen 11, with one end of the driven shaft 15 extending out of the side wall of the purification vessel 1 and connected to the drive shaft 13 via a synchronous pulley 16 and a synchronous belt 17. Two cams 18 are provided on the driven shaft 15. The cams 18 are located inside the purification kettle 1. The rotation of the cams 18 drives the filter screen 11 to move up and down, which promotes the mixing of zinc powder on the filter screen 11 with the solution and avoids solid blockage of the filter screen 11.
[0029] The purification vessel 1 has a slag discharge port on its side wall, and a slag discharge door 22 is detachably covered on the slag discharge port. The slag discharge door 22 is positioned directly opposite the filter screen 11. By removing the slag discharge door 22, the filter screen 11 can be taken out to clean solid impurities. Along the extension direction of the driven shaft 15, longitudinal sliding strips 23 are provided on both ends of the filter screen 11. The inner side of the slag discharge door 22 and one side wall of the purification vessel 1 are provided with longitudinal sliding grooves 24 that match the longitudinal sliding strips 23. The longitudinal sliding grooves 24 guide the movement of the filter screen 11.
[0030] The purification vessel 1 is equipped with a reflux pipe 19, which connects the top and bottom of the filter screen 11. The reflux pipe 19 is equipped with a reflux pump 20 and a reflux valve 21. The reflux pipe 19 pumps the liquid below the filter screen 11 into the liquid above the filter screen 11, improving the uniformity of contact between the zinc sulfate solution and the zinc powder.
[0031] A purification vessel 1 is connected to a reaction vessel 3 at its bottom. The purification vessel 1 and the reaction vessel 3 are connected by a first pipe 25, which is equipped with a first valve 27. The reaction vessel 3 is connected to a sodium pyridinethione raw material vessel 2 via a second pipe 26, which is equipped with a second valve 35. The reaction vessel 3 has a zinc sulfate inlet and a sodium pyridinethione inlet. The purified zinc sulfate solution and sodium pyridinethione react in the reaction vessel 3 to form zinc pyridinethione.
[0032] refer to Figure 3 Specifically, a second motor 28 is installed at the top of the reactor 3, and the output end of the second motor 28 is connected to a rotating shaft 29. The rotating shaft 29 is vertically arranged, with its lower end passing through the top and bottom of the reactor 3. A spiral blade 30 is installed on the rotating shaft 29. The spiral blade 30 transports the liquid from the bottom of the reactor 3 to the upper part, promoting mixing of the reactants and improving the reaction efficiency. A scraper 31 is installed on the rotating shaft 29, with its outer side contacting the side and bottom walls of the reactor 3. The scraper 31 scrapes off the product, zinc pyridinethione, preventing product residue on the side walls of the reactor 3 after production. A heating jacket 33 is installed on the outer wall of the reactor 3, and a discharge port 32 is installed at the bottom of the reactor 3. The heating jacket 33 heats the reactor 3.
[0033] Detailed operation process
[0034] Zinc powder is added to the first purification chamber 4 and the filter screen 11 through the feed inlet 5 and zinc powder inlet 34, respectively. Zinc sulfate solution is added to the first purification chamber 4 through the feed inlet 5. Then, the first motor 12 is started, which drives the drive shaft 13 to rotate. The drive shaft 13 drives the stirring rod 14 to rotate, and the stirring rod 14 stirs the reaction system. The impurity metal ions in the zinc sulfate solution begin a primary displacement reaction with the zinc powder. As more solution is added, the solution flows out from the overflow port 6 of the first purification chamber 4 and falls onto the filter screen 11, where it undergoes a secondary displacement reaction with the zinc powder. Solid impurities remain on the filter screen 11.
[0035] The drive shaft 13 also drives the synchronous pulley 16 on it to rotate. The synchronous pulley 16 on the drive shaft 13 drives the synchronous pulley 16 on the driven shaft 15 to rotate via the synchronous belt 17, which in turn drives the driven shaft 15 to rotate. The rotation of the driven shaft 15 drives the two cams 18 to rotate, and the cams 18 cause the filter screen 11 to move up and down, so that the solution replaced once can fully contact the zinc powder for reaction. After the reaction has been going on for a period of time, the reflux valve 21 and the reflux pump 20 are activated to pump the solution below the filter screen 11 into the upper part. After all the solution has been added, the outlet valve 10 on the outlet pipe 9 is opened, and the remaining solution in the first purification chamber 4 is released.
[0036] Open the second valve 35 on the second pipeline 26 to add the sodium pyridinethione solution into the reaction vessel 3, and add the heating medium into the heating jacket 33. Start the second motor 28, which drives the rotating shaft 29 to rotate, which in turn drives the spiral blades 30 and the scraper 31 to rotate. Then open the first valve 27 to add the purified zinc sulfate solution from the purification vessel 1 dropwise into the reaction vessel 3, where solid pyridinethione is gradually formed. After the reaction is complete, the material is discharged.
