Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical equipment, in particular to a stirring micro mixer and a mixing system. Background Art

[0002] Mixing is an important unit operation step in the chemical industry. For many fast reactions in industry, only efficient mixing can ensure sufficient reaction conversion rate and selectivity and reduce separation energy consumption. However, the traditional stirred tank reactor in industry cannot achieve effective fast mixing due to its uneven internal stirring.

[0003] In comparison, micromixers can effectively reduce the diffusion distance, increase the mass transfer specific surface area, and enhance the mixing process by using their channels with characteristic dimensions ranging from micrometers to millimeters. Micromixers can be divided into active and passive micromixers according to whether there is external field energy input. Passive micromixers do not introduce external field energy, and strengthen chaotic convection through complex channel structures such as bends, obstacles, separations and combinations, thereby enhancing mixing. Active mixers achieve mixing process enhancement by introducing external force fields such as electric fields, magnetic fields, and ultrasonic fields.

[0004] Although micromixers have achieved rapid development in recent years, current micromixers still cannot achieve efficient mixing for complex working conditions commonly found in industry, such as high-viscosity systems and extreme flow ratios. For passive micromixers, many complex structures and small channel sizes will cause a sharp increase in pressure drop when mixing high-viscosity fluids, increase energy consumption, and deteriorate fluidity of the fluid. Effective chaotic convection cannot be achieved by relying solely on the channel structure, and a large flow ratio will significantly increase the diffusion distance, resulting in deterioration of mixing performance. Therefore, active micromixers are more commonly used, but active micromixers mostly use an integrated structure, which is difficult to maintain and easy to clog, affecting the convenience of use.

[0056] See also Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a stirring micro mixer 100. The stirring micro mixer 100 is used to achieve mixing of raw materials of liquid-liquid homogeneous, liquid-liquid heterogeneous, liquid-solid, liquid-liquid-solid and other reaction systems. It can be understood that the current active micro mixers are mostly integrated structures, which are not easy to maintain and are easy to clog, affecting the performance.

[0057] To this end, the present invention provides a novel stirring micro-mixer 100, which is a detachable sealing structure, easy to assemble, easy to disassemble, and convenient to maintain and clean. At the same time, the stirring micro-mixer 100 can also strengthen the mixing process of fluids under complex working conditions, introduce a premixing step before stirring to strengthen the mixing performance, and ensure the mixing effect of the raw materials. The specific structure of the stirring micro-mixer 100 of an embodiment is introduced below.

[0058] See also Figures 1 to 5In one embodiment, the stirring micro mixer 100 includes an inlet part 110 and an outlet part 120. The inlet part 110 has a premixing chamber 112, a first mixing chamber 113 and a plurality of feed chambers 111. The plurality of feed chambers 111 are respectively connected to the premixing chamber 112, and the premixing chamber 112 is also connected to the first mixing chamber 113. The outlet part 120 is detachably and sealedly arranged on the top of the inlet part 110. The outlet part 120 has an outlet channel 123, and the outlet channel 123 is connected to the first mixing chamber 113. The rotating component 140 is rotatably arranged in the first mixing chamber 113. After the raw materials enter the premixing chamber 112 through the plurality of feed chambers 111, they are premixed in the premixing chamber 112 and transported to the first mixing chamber 113. The rotating component 140 mixes the raw materials in the first mixing chamber 113 and sends the mixed product out through the outlet channel 123.

[0059] The stirring micro-mixer 100 adopts a structure in which multiple parts can be detachably connected, so that the stirring micro-mixer 100 can be easily disassembled for maintenance and cleaning, effectively solving the problem that the stirring micro-mixer 100 is an integrated structure that is difficult to maintain and easy to clog. When the stirring micro-mixer 100 is used, the various parts are directly spliced, and the sealing of the joints can be ensured. After use, the various parts are disassembled for maintenance and cleaning. Moreover, when the stirring micro-mixer 100 is clogged during use, the parts can be directly disassembled for processing.

[0060] Specifically, the stirring micro mixer 100 includes an inlet part 110, an outlet part 120 and a rotating assembly 140. The inlet part 110 is arranged at the bottom and installed near the center of the magnetic stirrer 300. The outlet part 120 is arranged on the top of the inlet part 110, and the outlet part 120 is detachably sealed and connected to the inlet part 110. The rotating assembly 140 is rotatably arranged in the inlet part 110. The mixing system 10 conveys the raw materials into the inlet part 110, and the rotating assembly 140 rotates in the inlet part 110 so that the raw materials are mixed in the inlet part 110. After the raw materials are mixed, a product is formed, and the product is output through the outlet part 120. After the rotating assembly 140 rotates in the inlet part 110, the raw materials can be stirred and mixed, so that a variety of raw materials are fully mixed to ensure the uniformity of the mixing.

[0061] After the inlet part 110 and the outlet part 120 are detachably sealed and connected, the inlet part 110 and the outlet part 120 form an integral structure, that is, the stirring micro-mixer 100. The inlet part 110 and the outlet part 120 are sealed and connected at the connection, so as to prevent the raw material from being exposed from the connection between the inlet part 110 and the outlet part 120. Moreover, the inlet part 110 and the outlet part 120 are easy to assemble, easy to use materials, and easy to maintain and clean.

[0062] The inlet part 110 has a premixing chamber 112, a first mixing chamber 113 and a plurality of feed chambers 111. The plurality of feed chambers 111 are arranged at intervals on the side of the inlet part 110, and each feed chamber 111 is used to convey a type of raw material. The plurality of feed chambers 111 are respectively connected to the premixing chamber 112, and the premixing chamber 112 is connected to the first mixing chamber 113. In other words, the premixing chamber 112 realizes the connection between the first mixing chamber 113 and the plurality of feed chambers 111. The premixing chamber 112 is used to realize the premixing of raw materials to enhance the mixing performance. The rotating assembly 140 can be rotatably arranged in the first mixing chamber 113 to realize the stirring and mixing of the raw materials.

[0063] In this way, after the multiple feed chambers 111 convey the corresponding raw materials to the premixing chamber 112, the multiple types of raw materials are premixed in the premixing chamber 112. The raw materials premixed in the premixing chamber 112 are conveyed to the first mixing chamber 113. When the rotating assembly 140 rotates, it can stir and mix the multiple raw materials, so that the multiple raw materials are fully mixed to ensure the uniformity of the mixing.

[0064] Moreover, the outlet part 120 has an outlet channel 123, and the outlet part 120 is detachably arranged behind the inlet part 110, and the outlet channel 123 is connected to the first mixing chamber 113. In this way, after the raw materials are evenly mixed in the first mixing chamber 113, they are sent out of the stirring micro-mixer 100 through the outlet channel 123 of the outlet part 120 and stored in a corresponding area such as the product collection part 430 for later use.

[0065] See also Figures 1 to 5The stirring micro-mixer 100 of the above embodiment adopts a structure in which the inlet part 110 and the outlet part 120 are detachably and sealedly connected, and a rotating assembly 140 is arranged in the inlet part 110, and an active micro-mixer is formed in cooperation with the magnetic stirrer 300 of the mixing system 10. The magnetic stirrer 300 controls the rotation of the rotating assembly 140 in the first mixing chamber 113 to introduce a rotating flow field as an external force field to strengthen the mixing process of the fluid under complex working conditions, introduce a premixing step before stirring to strengthen the mixing performance, improve the energy input per unit fluid, and improve the uniformity of energy input, thereby satisfying the requirements for product quality in the reaction process in which the stirring is a mixer in liquid-liquid homogeneous, liquid-liquid heterogeneous, liquid-solid, liquid-liquid-solid and other reaction systems with high requirements for the mixing quality of raw materials. Moreover, the stirring micro-mixer 100 has a simple structure, is easy to assemble, easy to disassemble, and easy to maintain and clean, and is particularly suitable for systems containing solids and prone to clogging.

[0066] It is worth noting that the stirring micro-mixer 100 realizes the mixing of multiple raw materials, and the multiple raw materials are evenly mixed to form a product. In the process of mixing the raw materials to form the product, for the sake of simplicity, they are collectively referred to as raw materials or materials, and will not be repeated in the following text. When the stirring micro-mixer 100 mixes the raw materials, the raw materials flow from bottom to top, mainly because the force provided by the feed pump 230 during the raw material delivery cooperates with the force of the rotation of the rotating assembly 140, so that the raw materials flow upward after mixing.

[0067] See also Figure 2 Optionally, the feed chamber 111, the premixing chamber 112, the first mixing chamber 113 and the outlet channel 123 are cylindrical. This can avoid the appearance of corners in the chamber and facilitate the flow of raw materials. Optionally, the appearance of the inlet part 110 and the outlet part 120 is cylindrical. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the cross-sectional shape of the inlet part 110 and the outlet part 120 can also be a polygon, etc.

[0068] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , optionally, the premixing chamber 112 is located below the first mixing chamber 113. Optionally, the feed chamber 111 is arranged along the radial direction or the tangential direction of the inlet part 110. Optionally, the number of the feed chambers 111 is two, and the two feed chambers 111 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the inlet part 110. Each feed chamber 111 is used to convey one type of raw material. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the number of the feed chambers 111 can be more, and more feed chambers 111 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the inlet part 110.

[0069] See also Figure 1Optionally, the feed chamber 111 is used for detachably installing the feed connector 220 of the feed assembly 200 in the mixing system 10. In this way, the feed connector 220 can transport the raw materials to the feed chamber 111. Optionally, the feed connector 220 is detachably installed in the feed chamber 111 by plugging and unplugging. Optionally, the inner wall of the feed chamber 111 is provided with an internal thread, and the outer wall of the feed connector 220 is provided with an external thread, and the feed connector 220 is installed in the feed chamber 111 by threaded connection. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the feed connector 220 can also be installed in the feed chamber 111 by other methods, as long as the sealing of the connection between the two is guaranteed.

[0070] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the inlet part 110 further has a plurality of conveying chambers 114, which are respectively connected to the feed chamber 111 and the premixing chamber 112, and are used to convey the raw materials in the feed chamber 111 to the premixing chamber 112. One end of the conveying chamber 114 is connected to the feed chamber 111, and the other end of the conveying chamber 114 is connected to the premixing chamber 112, and the raw materials in the feed chamber 111 are conveyed to the premixing chamber 112 through the conveying chamber 114.

[0071] Optionally, the diameter of the delivery chamber 114 is smaller than the height of the premixing unit. In this way, it is possible to prevent the delivery chamber 114 from delivering too much raw material, ensure the premixing effect of the raw material in the premixing chamber 112, and enhance the mixing performance. It can be understood that the delivery chamber 114 extends along the radial direction of the inlet part 110 to connect the premixing chamber 112 with the feed chamber 111. The longitudinal cross-section of the delivery chamber 114 is circular. Optionally, the diameter of the delivery chamber 114 ranges from 0.2 mm to 0.7 mm. Optionally, the diameter of the delivery chamber 114 is 0.5 mm.

[0072] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the inlet part 110 further has a first connecting cavity 115 , and the outlet part 120 has a first connecting section 122 at the end facing the inlet part 110 , and the first connecting section 122 is detachable and sealedly installed in the first connecting cavity 115 .

[0073] The top of the inlet part 110 is provided with a first connecting cavity 115, and the first connecting cavity 115 is connected to the first mixing cavity 113. When the outlet part 120 is connected to the inlet part 110, the first connecting section 122 of the outlet part 120 is detachably installed in the first connecting cavity 115, so as to realize a detachable sealed connection with the inlet part 110. Moreover, after the outlet part 120 is connected to the inlet part 110, the outlet channel 123 of the outlet part 120 will extend into the first connecting cavity 115, and then be connected to the first mixing cavity 113. In this way, after the multiple raw materials are evenly mixed in the first mixing cavity 113, they are directly sent out of the stirring micro-mixer 100 through the outlet channel 123.
