[0043] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 The present invention also proposes a device for preparing high-purity iodine monochloride from crude iodine, comprising a reactor 1, an air inlet pipe 2 and a feed pipe 3 are provided on the reactor 1, a stirring shaft 7 is rotatably provided in the reactor 1, and the stirring shaft 7 is hollow, a reciprocating screw 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the reactor 1, and the reciprocating screw 8 is rotatably provided inside the stirring shaft 7, two reciprocating thread sections are provided on the reciprocating screw 8, and each reciprocating thread section is threadedly connected with a screw nut 18, for details, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 There is a certain distance between the threaded sections of the reciprocating screw 8, and the rest is a smooth rod, which can effectively limit the stroke of the screw nut 18.

[0044] Swinging grooves 20 are provided on both sides of the stirring shaft 7, and stirring blades 9 are rotatably connected in the swinging grooves 20, and gears 21 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the stirring blades 0, and racks 19 are fixedly connected to both sides of the screw nut 18, and the racks 19 are meshed with the gears 21. A plurality of sealing plates 17 are provided in the stirring shaft 7, and every two adjacent sealing plates 17 are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the screw nut 18, and the reciprocating screw 8 seals and penetrates the sealing plates 17. It should be noted that by providing the sealing plates 17, the hollow stirring shaft 7 can be blocked, so that the reaction products or raw materials only remain in the area between the two sealing plates 17 that is exposed to the outside, and in the later cleaning, only the exposed area between the two sealing plates 17 needs to be cleaned, which can greatly reduce the difficulty of cleaning.

[0045] Two transmission rollers 10 are rotatably connected to the inner walls on both sides of the reactor 1, and two adjacent transmission rollers 10 are connected by a transmission belt 11. A plurality of hoppers 12 are fixedly provided on the side wall of the transmission belt 11, and the plurality of hoppers 12 are evenly spaced and distributed on the transmission belt 11. A driving groove 13 is provided on the side wall of the reactor 1, and a rotating device for rotating the transmission roller 10 is installed in the driving groove 13.

[0046] The rotating device includes a first bevel gear 14 rotatably connected to the bottom of the driving groove 13. Two second bevel gears 15 are also rotatably connected in the driving groove 13. The two second bevel gears 15 are both meshed with the first bevel gear 14. Each second bevel gear 15 is fixedly connected to the adjacent transmission roller 10 through a rotating shaft. A driving motor 16 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the reactor 1, and the output shaft of the driving motor 16 is fixedly connected to the second bevel gear 15.

[0047] Two vibration plates 6 are also rotatably connected to the inner wall of the reactor 1. The vibration plates 6 are connected to the top of the reactor 1 through springs 5. A telescopic cylinder 4 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the reactor 1. The telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 4 is sealed and penetrates the top of the reactor 1 and extends into it. The rotation connection between the vibration plate 6 and the reactor 1 is located at the center of the vibration plate 6, and the spring 5 and the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 4 are respectively arranged on both sides of the vibration plate 6. It should be noted that, since the spacing between every two adjacent hoppers 12 is fixed, by setting the telescopic interval period of the telescopic cylinder 4, it can be ensured that: when the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 4 moves downward and pushes the vibration plate 6 to deflect, the end of the vibration plate 6 close to the transmission belt 11 will be tilted, so that this side of the vibration plate 6 can be away from the transmission belt 11, and the hopper 12 on the transmission belt 11 can smoothly turn over the upper transmission roller 10 without being blocked by the vibration plate 6. When the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 4 moves upward, the spring 5 pushes the vibration plate 6 to deflect, and the end of the vibration plate 6 close to the transmission belt 11 moves downward, so that the turned over hopper 12 can be hit just once to cause the crude iodine raw material therein to be scattered and dropped.

[0048] During use of the device, chlorine gas can be introduced into the reactor 1 through the air inlet pipe 2, and the crude iodine raw material can be transported into the reactor 1 through the feed pipe 3. The drive motor 16 is started, and the drive motor 16 can drive the second bevel gear 15 to rotate, so that the first bevel gear 14 meshing with the second bevel gear 15 will rotate, thereby driving the stirring shaft 7 to continuously rotate. When the stirring shaft 7 rotates, the stirring blade 9 thereon also rotates accordingly, and the gear 21 on the stirring blade 9 is meshed with the rack 19, and the rack 19 is fixed on the lead screw nut 18, so that the lead screw nut 18 can be driven to rotate on the reciprocating lead screw 8, so that the lead screw nut 18 will reciprocate up and down, and during the up and down movement of the lead screw nut 18, the gears 21 on both sides can be reciprocated up and down in the opposite directions through the rack 19, so that the stirring blade 9 swings up and down. Compared with the stirring device of the transmission reaction container, the stirring blade 9 in the present invention can also swing up and down during the rotation of the stirring shaft 7, so that the layers of crude iodine raw materials in the reactor 1 can flow up and down and transpose, so that the lower layer of crude iodine raw materials can be continuously turned to the upper layer, which greatly improves the reaction efficiency of chlorine and crude iodine raw materials.

[0049] Furthermore, the second bevel gear 15 can also drive the transmission roller 10 to rotate continuously when rotating, and the transmission roller 10 can make the transmission belt 11 operate continuously when rotating. Figure 1 For example, during the operation of the transmission belt 11, the hopper 12 on it can continuously transport the crude iodine raw materials from various places in the reactor 1 to the top of the reactor 1, and when turning over the upper transmission roller 10, the direction of the hopper 12 is reversed (such as Figure 3As shown), the crude iodine raw material carried can be poured and sprinkled. On the one hand, when the hopper 12 is driven by the transmission belt 11 to operate together, Figure 3 For example, the hopper 12 on the left can push the crude iodine raw material on the upper layer into the lower layer, and the hopper 12 on the right can push the crude iodine raw material on the lower side to the upper layer, forcing the crude iodine raw material in the reactor 1 to interact with each other, so as to improve the reaction efficiency of the crude iodine raw material and chlorine gas at various locations in the reactor. On the other hand, when the hopper 12 is turned over and the crude iodine raw material is thrown down, it will spread to a larger area, so that the contact area between the crude iodine raw material and the chlorine gas can be effectively increased, and the reaction speed can be further accelerated;

[0050] In addition, it is worth mentioning that the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 4 will continue to expand and contract, so that one side of the vibration plate 6 can be continuously pushed down. When the telescopic cylinder 4 contracts, the spring 5 pulls the vibration plate 6 to rotate and reset, so under the joint action of the telescopic cylinder 4 and the spring 5, the vibration plate 6 can rotate back and forth around its rotation axis. When the end of the vibration plate 6 close to the transmission belt 11 deflects downward, it can knock the hopper 12 once. On the one hand, it can promote the crude iodine raw material in the hopper 12 to be thrown cleanly. On the other hand, due to the knocking effect of the vibration plate 6, an external force can be applied to the throwing of the crude iodine raw material, so that the throwing range of the crude iodine raw material can be further increased, and the contact area between the crude iodine raw material and the chlorine gas can be further increased, thereby increasing the reaction rate again.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
