Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of liquid mixing technology, and in particular to a liquid mixing device and method based on a pipeline mixer and jet stirring. Background Technology

[0002] Liquid mixing is widely used in industry, agriculture, and medicine. The mixing process typically involves stirring, either manually or mechanically. Mechanical stirring is widely used due to its advantages over manual stirring, such as saving labor, shorter mixing time, and higher efficiency. However, existing mechanical stirring equipment often uses stirring devices, such as agitators, installed inside a container. This places high demands on the container's strength, significantly increasing costs. Furthermore, the reliability of the stirring devices is not high, and they frequently malfunction, requiring entry into the container for repairs. The limited space within the container further increases the difficulty and cost of maintenance. Therefore, designing a liquid mixing device that can fully mix liquids without the need for a stirring device has a promising economic prospect in today's market. Summary of the Invention

[0005] A liquid mixing device based on a pipe mixer and jet stirring includes a mixing container and a circulation device. The bottom of the mixing container is connected to a liquid outlet pipe, which is connected to the inlet of the circulation device through a liquid outlet pipe.

[0006] The outer surface of the mixing container is provided with a plurality of liquid inlet pipes that communicate with the interior of the mixing container; the plurality of liquid inlet pipes are connected to the outlet of the circulation device through liquid inlet pipes;

[0007] An alternative liquid material pipeline is connected to the liquid material inlet pipe; a pipeline mixer is installed at the connection between the liquid material inlet pipe and the alternative liquid material pipeline.

[0008] Furthermore, three liquid inlet pipes are provided, namely a first liquid inlet pipe, a second liquid inlet pipe, and a third liquid inlet pipe.

The axial lines of the first, second, and third liquid inlet pipes are respectively set at a 45-degree angle to the radial line of the mixing container, and the axial lines of the first, second, and third liquid inlet pipes are arranged sequentially in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

[0009] Furthermore, the first liquid inlet pipe, the second liquid inlet pipe, and the third liquid inlet pipe are arranged in a stepped manner along the outer surface of the mixing container.

[0010] Furthermore, the top of the mixing container is also connected to a top liquid inlet pipe, which is connected to the liquid inlet pipe via a top liquid pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, a liquid outlet control valve is provided on the liquid outlet pipe, and a liquid inlet control valve is provided on each of the liquid inlet pipes connected to the first liquid inlet pipe, the second liquid inlet pipe, and the third liquid inlet pipe respectively. The liquid inlet control valve is also provided on the top liquid pipe, and an alternative liquid control valve is provided on the alternative liquid pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, the cavities of the first liquid inlet pipe, the second liquid inlet pipe, the third liquid inlet pipe, and the top liquid inlet pipe are all conical in shape, with the cone apex facing the interior of the mixing container.

[0013] The present invention also provides a liquid mixing method based on a pipe mixer and jet stirring, using the above-mentioned liquid mixing device, the method comprising the following steps:

[0020] S7: Remove the mixed liquid formed by thoroughly mixing liquid A and liquid B inside the mixing container to complete the liquid mixing process.

[0021] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0032] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this invention, the invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] See Figure 1 As shown, a liquid mixing device based on a pipe mixer and jet stirring according to an embodiment of this application is described. It includes a mixing container 1 and a circulation device 2. The bottom of the mixing container 1 is connected to a liquid outlet pipe 101. The liquid outlet pipe 101 is connected to the inlet of the circulation device 2 through a liquid outlet pipe 3. The liquid A inside the mixing container 1 is sucked out by the circulation device 2.

[0035] Several liquid inlet pipes connected to the interior of the mixing container 1 are provided on the outer surface of the mixing container 1; the several liquid inlet pipes are connected to the outlet of the circulation device 2 through the liquid inlet pipe 4, and the liquid that is sucked out is sent back to the mixing container to realize circulation;

[0036] A different liquid material pipe 5 is connected to the liquid material inlet pipe 4. A pipe mixer 6 is installed at the connection between the liquid material inlet pipe 4 and the different liquid material pipe 5. The different liquid material pipe 5 can transport liquid material B, which is different from the original liquid material in the mixing container 1. Liquid material B meets liquid material A in the pipe mixer 6 and undergoes the first mixing to obtain a first mixed liquid material with a certain degree of mixing. This first mixed liquid material enters the mixing container 1 along the liquid material inlet pipe 4 and will vibrate and impact the original liquid material A in the mixing container 1. This first mixed liquid material and liquid material A vibrate and mix again to obtain a second mixed liquid material. This cycle of vibration and mixing is repeated until a fully mixed target liquid material is obtained.

[0037] It should be noted that the circulation device 2 is existing technology and can be a circulation pump.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] See Figure 2 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that three liquid inlet pipes are provided, namely a first liquid inlet pipe 102, a second liquid inlet pipe 103, and a third liquid inlet pipe 104. These three pipes are evenly arranged along the circumference of the mixing container 1 and are arranged in a stepped manner upwards along the outer surface of the mixing container 1. The axial lines of the first liquid inlet pipe 102, the second liquid inlet pipe 103, and the third liquid inlet pipe 104 are arranged in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, so that the liquid is injected into the interior of the mixing container 1 at a 45-degree angle. The liquid inside the mixing container is pushed and rotated, forming a vortex from top to bottom, which stirs the liquid inside the mixing container, speeds up the mixing speed, and makes the mixing between the liquids more uniform and thorough.

[0040] The cavities of the first liquid inlet pipe 102, the second liquid inlet pipe 103, and the third liquid inlet pipe 104 are all conical in shape, with the cone apex facing the inside of the mixing container 1. This increases the injection pressure of the liquid, making the liquid have a greater impact force when it enters the mixing container 1, making it easier to form a vortex that rotates along the axis, and also accelerating the rotation speed of the vortex.

[0041] In addition, a top liquid inlet pipe 105 is provided on the top of the mixing container 1. The top liquid inlet pipe 105 is connected to the liquid inlet pipe 4 through the top liquid pipe 7, so that the liquid forms an additional liquid water column that is sprayed into the mixing container 1 from top to bottom. This liquid water column can impact the vortex inside the container 1, causing the vortex to oscillate, further ensuring the uniformity of mixing between the liquids. Correspondingly, the cavity shape of the top liquid inlet pipe 105 is also conical, with the cone tip facing the inside of the mixing container 1, which accelerates the impact speed of the liquid water column and increases the impact force.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] See Figure 1 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment two is that a liquid outlet control valve 8 is provided on the liquid outlet pipe 3, and a liquid inlet control valve 9 is provided on the liquid inlet pipe 4 connected to the first liquid inlet pipe fitting 102, the second liquid inlet pipe fitting 103 and the third liquid inlet pipe fitting 104 respectively. A liquid inlet control valve 9 is also provided on the top liquid pipe 7, and an alternative liquid control valve 10 is provided on the alternative liquid pipe. The input and output of the liquid are controlled by setting the valves.

[0044] The present invention also provides a liquid mixing method based on a pipe mixer and jet stirring, using the above-mentioned liquid mixing device, the method comprising the following steps:

[0045] S1: Add the required amount of liquid A to mixing container 1;

[0046] S2: Open liquid outlet control valve 8 and open all liquid inlet control valves 9;

[0047] S3: Start the circulation device 2. Under the action of the circulation device 2, liquid A begins to circulate and be inputted and output, and forms an axially rotating vortex inside the mixing container 1.

[0048] S4: Open the alternative liquid control valve 10 to deliver the required amount of liquid B into the alternative liquid pipeline 5;

[0049] S5: After all liquid material B has been delivered, close the alternative liquid material control valve 10;

[0050] S6: After liquid A and liquid B in mixing container 1 are fully mixed, close liquid outlet control valve 8, wait for a certain period of time, then close all liquid inlet control valves 9, and then shut down circulation device 2;

[0051] S7: Take out the mixed liquid formed by fully mixing liquid A and liquid B inside the mixing container 1 to complete the liquid mixing work.

[0052] This document uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of the present invention. Furthermore, those skilled in the art will recognize that, based on the ideas of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.
