[0061] Detailed Implementation

[0062] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0063] Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional view of a sludge removal device for a regulating tower according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 This is an internal view of a sludge removal device for a regulating tower according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 This is according to one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2The schematic diagram at point A is shown. The cleaning device may include: a rotating main shaft 1, scraper rods 2, support rods 7, bearings 3, support base 11, a first connecting shaft 12, a hydraulic rod 8, a third connecting shaft 13, a first gear 5, a chain 4, a second gear 16, a first engine 15, a base plate 19, a first bottom groove 20, a first water pipe 38, a first pipe 35, a water pump 33, wheels 24, and a power unit 32. The multi-row scraper rods 2 can be installed on the side wall of the rotating main shaft 1, rotating with the rotating main shaft 1 to scrape away the sludge in front. There can be two support rods 7, respectively located near both ends of the rotating main shaft 1, and these two support rods 7 can be connected to the rotating main shaft 1 via bearings 3 to support the rotating main shaft 1. After the support rods 7 are connected to the rotating main shaft 1 via bearings 3, the rotating main shaft 1 can rotate at one end of the support rods 7 via the bearings 3. Support seats 11 can be provided on both sides of the bottom of each support rod 7. The first connecting shaft 12 can connect the support seats 11 on both sides of the support rod 7 to the support rod 7. The support rod 7 can rotate around the first connecting shaft 12. Two hydraulic rods 8 can be respectively provided at the other end of the support rod 7, and each hydraulic rod 8 can be connected to each support rod 7 through the second connecting shaft 9. After the hydraulic rod 8 and the support rod 7 are connected together by the second connecting shaft 9, the support rod 7 can rotate around the second connecting shaft 9.

[0064] The third connecting shaft 13 can be positioned between the support base 11 and the hydraulic rod 8, and can be connected to the two support rods 7. The first gear 5 can be positioned in the middle of the rotating main shaft 1 to drive the rotation of the rotating main shaft 1. The chain 4 can be positioned around the first gear 5 to drive the rotation of the first gear 5. The second gear 16 can be positioned on the third connecting shaft 13 at a position corresponding to the first gear 5, and can be connected to the third connecting shaft 13 through the gear rod 10. The second gear 16 is located inside the chain 4 and can drive the chain 4 to rotate. The first engine 15 can be connected to the second gear 16 to drive the second gear 16 to rotate. The base plate 19 can be positioned below the hydraulic rod 8 and the support base 11 to support the hydraulic rod 8 and the support base 11. The height of the end of the base plate 19 near the rotating main shaft 1 is greater than the height of the end away from the rotating main shaft 1. The first bottom groove 20 can be positioned in the middle of the base plate 19 for placing the sludge scraped off by the scraper rod 2. A first water pipe 38 can be installed near the first trough 20 to supply water to the first trough 20, thereby diluting the sludge within the first trough 20. One end of a first pipe 35 can be connected to the first trough 20, and the other end can be connected to a sludge placement point to discharge the diluted sludge. A water pump 33 can be installed inside the first trough 20 and connected to the first pipe 35 to pump out the diluted sludge. Four wheels 24 can be installed near the four corners of the base plate 19. A power unit 32 can be connected to the wheels 24 to drive the wheels 24 forward, thereby driving the cleaning device forward.

[0065] In one embodiment of the present invention, the multi-row scraper rods 2 can be mounted on the side wall of the rotating main shaft 1. When it is necessary to clean the sludge in front, the first engine 15 can be started, thereby driving the rotation of the second gear 16. The second gear 16 can be connected to the third connecting shaft 13 through the gear rod 10, and the second gear 16 can rotate around the gear rod 10. After the second gear 16 rotates, the chain 4 surrounding the second gear 16 can be driven by the second gear 16. The first gear 5 is located inside the chain 4, and when the chain 4 is driven, the first gear 5 will also be driven to rotate by the chain 4. Because the first gear 5 is located in the middle of the rotating main shaft 1, the rotating main shaft 1 will also be driven to rotate by the first gear 5, and thus the multi-row scraper rods 2 on the rotating main shaft 1 can be driven to rotate by the rotating main shaft 1 to scrape off the sludge in front.

[0066] When scraping sludge in front of the scraper bar 3, due to the design of the scraper bar 2, it can only scrape the sludge directly in front of the scraper bar 2. Sludge above or below the scraper bar 2 is not easily scraped off. A support base 11 can be provided at the bottom of the two support rods 7. This support base 11 can be connected to the support rod 7 via a first connecting shaft 12. The support rod 7 can rotate around the first connecting shaft 12, and the rotating main shaft 1 connected to the support rod 7 can also swing up and down with the rotation of the support rod 7. The support base 11 is used to support the support rod 7. Furthermore, because a hydraulic rod 8 is provided at the other end of each support rod 7, and the support rod 7 can rotate relative to the hydraulic rod 8, the hydraulic rod 8 can push or pull the support rod 7 upwards or downwards. After the scraper rod 2 removes the sludge directly in front, the other end of the support rod 7 can be pushed up or pulled down by the hydraulic rod 8. Because the support rod 7 is connected to the support base 11 through the first connecting shaft 12, when the hydraulic rod 8 pushes up the other end of the support rod 7, one end of the support rod 7 connected to the rotating main shaft 1 moves downward, thus allowing the scraper rod 2 to scrape off the sludge below. When it is necessary to scrape off the sludge above, the hydraulic rod 8 can pull down the other end of the support rod 7, thus moving one end of the support rod 7 connected to the rotating main shaft 1 upward, allowing the scraper rod 2 to scrape off the sludge above.

[0067] A base plate 19 can be provided below the support base 11. The base plate 19 can support the hydraulic rod 8 and the support base 11. The base plate 19 can extend below the scraper rod 2, and the height of the end of the base plate 19 near the rotating main shaft 1 can be greater than the height of the end away from the rotating main shaft 1. After the scraper rod 2 scrapes off the sludge, the sludge will fall onto the base plate 19 and slide down the base plate 19. A bottom groove 20 can be provided in the middle of the base plate 19 to place the sludge that slides down the base plate 19. A first water pipe 38 can be set near the first bottom groove 20 to supply water to the first bottom groove 20, thereby diluting the sludge in the first bottom groove 20. A water pump 33 is set in the first bottom groove 20 and connected to one end of a first pipe 35, the other end of which is connected to the sludge placement point. When sludge needs to be discharged, the first water pipe 38 supplies water to the first trough 20 to dilute the sludge, and then the water pump 33 pumps the diluted sludge out through the first pipe 35 and transports it to the designated sludge discharge point. The four wheels 33 can be respectively set near the four corners of the base plate 19 so that they can be driven to rotate by the power unit 32, thereby driving the cleaning rotor forward.

[0068] In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7As shown, the cleaning device may include: a side plate 6, an arc-shaped front plate 27, a top plate 41, and a rear plate 34. There may be two side plates 6, respectively disposed on both sides of the base plate 19, with the end of each side plate 6 near the rotating main shaft 1 being arc-shaped. The arc-shaped front plate 27 may be disposed between the rotating main shaft 1 and the third connecting shaft 13, and the arc-shaped front plate 27 may be connected to both side plates 6, with the arc-shaped portion of the front plate 27 connecting to the arc-shaped portion of the side plate 6. An opening may be provided between the arc-shaped front plate 27 and the base plate 27, allowing the sludge scraped off by the scraper rod 2 to slide along the arc-shaped front plate 27 onto the base plate 19, and through the opening between the base plate 19 and the arc-shaped front plate 27 to the rear end of the base plate 19. The top plate 41 may be disposed on top of the side plates 6 and the arc-shaped front plate 27. The rear plate 34 may be disposed at the end of the side plate 6 away from the rotating main shaft 1, thereby cooperating and sealing with the top plate 41 and the side plates 6. As the device moves forward, the side plate 6, the arc-shaped front plate 27, the top plate 41, the rear plate 34, and the bottom plate 19 cooperate to seal each other, preventing the interior of the cleaning device from being invaded by sludge.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present invention, because the support base 11 and the hydraulic rod 8 are mounted on the base plate 19, when sludge is on the base plate 19, the support base 11 and the hydraulic rod 8 may obstruct the flow of the sludge, preventing it from falling properly into the first bottom trough 20. Furthermore, if the support base 11 and the hydraulic rod 8 are immersed in sludge for a long period, they may corrode. Therefore, in one embodiment of the present invention, as... Figure 4 As shown, the cleaning device may include a first partition 29. The first partition 29 may be disposed between the support base 11 and the base plate 19 to isolate the support base 11 and the hydraulic rod 8 from the base plate 19. The first partition 29 may cooperate with the side plate 6, the arc-shaped front plate 27, and the rear plate 34 to encapsulate and isolate the support base 11 and the hydraulic rod 8 from the base plate 19, thereby preventing the support base 11 and the hydraulic rod 8 from contacting the sludge, allowing the sludge to slide better along the first groove 20 of the base plate 19.

[0070] In one embodiment of the present invention, after the sludge is scraped down to the bottom plate 19 by the scraper rod 2, although it will slide down the slope of the bottom plate 19, its sliding speed is very slow due to the adhesive nature of the sludge, making it difficult to fall into the first bottom groove 20. Therefore, in one embodiment of the present invention, as... Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, the cleaning device may include: a first rotating plate 18, a first rotating shaft 17, a first motor 36, and a protective shell 27. Multiple first rotating plates 18 may be present, positioned near the opening to push sludge from the opening into the first bottom trough 20. Multiple first rotating shafts 17 are correspondingly connected to the first rotating plates 17 to drive the first rotating plates 18 to rotate. Multiple first motors 36 may correspond one-to-one with the first rotating shafts 17 and may be positioned below the bottom plate 19. Each first motor 36 may be connected to the first rotating shaft 17 to drive its rotation. Multiple protective shells 37 may be positioned outside each first motor 36 to protect it from external impact damage. When it is necessary to scrape sludge from the bottom plate 19 into the first bottom trough 20, the first motor 36 can be activated to rotate the first rotating shaft 17, thereby rotating the first rotating plate 18 and pushing the sludge from the bottom plate 19 into the first bottom trough 20.

[0071] When the scraper bar 2 scrapes away the sludge in front, due to the adhesiveness of the sludge, the scraper bar 2 easily gets stuck in the sludge and cannot rotate. In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the cleaning device may include a second water pipe 26, a first rotatable water outlet 30, and a third water pipe 28. The second water pipe 26 may be located near the top of the arc-shaped front plate 27. Multiple first rotatable water outlets 30 may be arranged along the length of the second water pipe 26 and pass through the arc-shaped front plate 27 to connect with the second water pipe 26, for spraying high-pressure water to wash the sludge on the scraper bar 2. One end of the third water pipe 28 may be connected to the first water pipe 38 and the second water pipe 26, and the other end may be connected to an external high-pressure water pump to supply water to the first water pipe 38 and the second water pipe 26.

[0072] When the scraper bar 2 is scraping away the sludge in front, the first rotatable water outlet 30 can be rotated to align with the scraper bar 2, so that the high-pressure water jet sprayed by the first rotatable water outlet 30 can wash away the sludge on the scraper bar 2, so that the scraper bar 2 will not sink into the sludge, and the high-pressure water jet sprayed by the first rotatable water outlet 30 can wash away and loosen the sludge that needs to be removed, so that the scraper bar 2 can scrape away the sludge better.

[0073] When sludge enters the first bottom tank 20, although the first water pipe 38 can supply water to dilute the sludge in the first bottom tank 20, the sludge will still stick together and be difficult to flush away, which may block the water pump 33, preventing the water pump 33 from pumping out the diluted sludge. In one embodiment of the present invention, as... Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, the cleaning device may include: a second rotating plate 23, a second rotating shaft 22, and a second motor 31. The second rotating plate 23 may be disposed within the first bottom trough 20 and can rotate to disperse the sludge within the first bottom trough 20. One end of the second rotating shaft 22 may be connected to the second rotating plate 23 to drive the second rotating plate 23 to rotate. The second motor 31 may be disposed at the bottom of the top plate 41 and connected to the second rotating shaft 22 to drive the second rotating shaft 22 to rotate. When there is excessive sludge adhesion in the first bottom trough 20, the second motor 31 can be activated. The second motor 31 can drive the second rotating shaft 22 to rotate, which in turn can drive the second rotating plate 23 to rotate. The rotation of the second rotating plate 23 can disperse the sludge in the first bottom trough 20, allowing the water pump 33 to easily pump out the diluted sludge.

[0074] In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown. The cleaning device may include a second bottom trough 21 and a second baffle 25. The second bottom trough 21 may be disposed between the first bottom trough 20 and the first pipe 35, and may be used to house a water pump 33 to discharge the dispersed sludge. A second baffle 25 may be provided between the first bottom trough 20 and the second bottom trough 21. The height of the second baffle 25 may be less than the depth of the first bottom trough 20 and the second bottom trough 21, so that the more diluted sludge at the top can flow into the second bottom trough 21. The second baffle 25 disposed between the first bottom trough 20 and the second bottom trough 21 can separate the sludge that has just entered the first bottom trough 20 from the second bottom trough 21, so as to prevent the initial sludge from clogging the water pump 33. After the sludge in the first bottom trough 20 is dispersed by the second rotating plate 23, the more diluted sludge at the top can flow into the second bottom trough 21, and then the water pump 33 can pump out the diluted sludge, avoiding clogging by sludge and thus preventing it from malfunctioning.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 6 As shown, the cleaning device may include multiple second rotatable water outlets 39. These multiple second rotatable water outlets 39 can be arranged along the length of the first water pipe 38 on the side wall of the first water pipe 38 to flush away sludge on the base plate 19. When the cleaning device starts working, the first rotating plate 18 may be blocked by sludge and unable to rotate. The second rotatable water outlets 39 can be aligned with the non-rotating first rotating plate 18 as needed. The high-pressure water jet from the second rotatable water outlets can disperse the sludge blocking the first rotating plate 18, allowing the first rotating plate 18 to function normally.

[0076] In one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 5 and Figure 3As shown, the cleaning device may include a protective shell 40 and a first engine protective shell 14. The protective shell 40 may be disposed around the chain 4 to prevent the chain 4 from being stuck by sludge. A first engine protective shell 40 may be provided on the outside of the first engine 15 to protect the first engine 15 from external impacts.

[0077] On the other hand, the present invention also provides a regulating tower, which may include the purging device as described above and the... Figure 8 The regulating tower body 42 is shown. The bottom of the regulating tower body 42 may be provided with an opening slot 43 to allow a cleaning device to enter the regulating tower body 42 to perform sludge removal.

[0078] Through the above technical solution, the present invention provides a sludge removal device and regulating tower for regulating towers. A rotating main shaft is provided, and multiple rows of scraper bars are installed on the rotating main shaft. These scraper bars can scrape away the sludge in front. Two support rods support the rotating main shaft. A support base can be provided below the support rods to support the support rods. A hydraulic rod can be provided at the other end of the support rods, allowing the support rods to rotate around the support base under the action of the hydraulic rod, thereby causing the scraper bars to swing up and down. A third connecting shaft can be connected to the two support rods. A first gear can be provided in the middle of the rotating main shaft. A second gear and a first engine are provided at the corresponding positions of the third connecting shaft and the first gear. The first engine can drive the second gear to rotate, and the second gear drives the first gear to rotate via a chain, thereby driving the rotating main shaft to rotate, and then driving the scraper bars to rotate and scrape away the sludge in front. A base plate is provided at the bottom of the hydraulic rod to support the hydraulic rod and the support base. A first bottom groove is provided in the middle of the base plate to hold the sludge. A first water pipe supplies water to the first bottom groove, and then a water pump pumps out the diluted sludge from the first bottom groove. Wheels are installed at the bottom of the base plate. The power unit drives the wheels to move forward continuously, so that the scraper can continuously scrape off the mud in front and transport the mud away.
