Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of filter element processing technology, specifically to processing equipment for filter elements. Background Technology

[0002] Existing filter elements require drying after processing. Due to the special structure of the filter elements, their surface has too many wrinkles, making them difficult to dry. Some drying equipment on the market uses a single hot air drying mode, which has low drying efficiency. Moreover, the hot and humid airflow after baking is directly discharged into the air, thus wasting a lot of heat. A solution is needed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0003] As disclosed in the patent document CN115014048A, the device drives the filter element to rotate around the output shaft of the motor while rotating itself. The high-speed rotation causes the water inside the filter element to be quickly thrown out. In addition, the first guide component heats and dries the external airflow and then guides it into the drying cylinder to dry the filter element with hot air. The combination of spin drying and hot air drying improves the drying efficiency of the filter element.

[0004] However, when the aforementioned device removes water from the filter element, a small amount of residual water remains inside the outer layer of the filter element. When the filter element stops rotating, due to capillary action, this water will diffuse back into the entire filter element, affecting the efficiency of subsequent hot air drying. At the same time, the aforementioned device does not shield the filter element, causing water to splash during its rotation, which can easily cause pollution to the surrounding area. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem solved by this solution is:

[0006] (1) How to solve the problem that due to capillary action, the moisture inside the outer layer of the filter element will diffuse back into the entire filter element, affecting the subsequent hot air drying efficiency;

[0007] (2) How to solve the problem that water splashes during the rotation of the filter element, which can easily cause pollution to the surrounding area.

[0008] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: a processing device for filter elements, including a base and a mounting plate fixed on top thereon, a shielding bucket for preventing water splashing is fixedly installed on the base on the front side of the mounting plate, a positioning mechanism for fixing the filter element is provided inside the shielding bucket, and a drying mechanism for absorbing residual moisture on the surface of the filter element is provided above the positioning mechanism.

[0009] The drying mechanism includes a U-shaped plate with two absorbent sponges symmetrically arranged on both sides of its inner wall. Several ventilation holes are provided on both outer walls of the U-shaped plate, with the positions of the ventilation holes corresponding to the positions of one of the absorbent sponges. Equilateral trapezoidal plates are fixedly installed at both ends of the bottom of the U-shaped plate. During the extension of the cylinder to a set length, the horizontal angle of the U-shaped plate is adjusted by the two inclined sides of the equilateral trapezoidal plates, facilitating the insertion of the bottom of the U-shaped plate into the slot. When the cylinder extends to the set length, both ends of the bottom of the U-shaped plate are located within the slot. The drive motor is activated, and the rotating shaft drives the filter element located in the two limiting slots to rotate, quickly throwing out the water inside. Because the filter element has equilateral trapezoidal plates on both sides, the thrown-out water flows out through the gap between the equilateral trapezoidal plates and the slots. The inner wall of the shielding bucket blocks the thrown-out water, preventing splashing and avoiding pollution of the surrounding area.

[0010] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: the positioning mechanism includes a positioning seat, the top of the positioning seat is provided with a slot, and the two inner walls of the slot are provided with limiting grooves for fixing the filter element. The bottoms of the two equilateral trapezoidal plates are located in the slot, and the dimensions of the inner wall of the slot correspond to the dimensions of the bottom of the U-shaped plate.

[0011] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that the depth of the limiting groove is half the depth of the card slot.

[0012] A further technical improvement of the present invention is as follows: a guide frame is fixedly installed on the front of the mounting plate, a guide rod is movably inserted on the guide frame, the bottom end of the guide rod is fixedly connected to the top of the U-shaped plate, a longitudinally arranged cylinder is fixedly installed on the mounting plate on one side of the guide rod, and a support frame is fixedly installed on the extended end of the cylinder; after the filter element has been spun dry for a certain period of time, the drive motor is turned off in time. Due to the inertial shaft, it will slowly decelerate. During this period, the extended end of the control cylinder is extended to its maximum length. At this time, the bottom of the two equilateral trapezoidal plates contacts the bottom of the inner wall of the slot, and the support sleeve is located between the top of the U-shaped plate and the baffle. At the same time, two water-absorbing sponges clamp the filter element, efficiently absorbing the moisture inside the outer layer of the filter element. This prevents the moisture from diffusing back into the entire filter element due to capillary action when the filter element stops rotating, thus ensuring the efficiency of subsequent hot air drying of the filter element.

[0013] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: a baffle is fixedly installed in the middle of the guide frame, the baffle is located below the guide frame, and a support sleeve is movably sleeved on the guide rod below the baffle. One end of the support frame is fixedly connected to the support sleeve, and lubricating oil is provided between the baffle and the support sleeve.

[0014] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that a hot air blower is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting plate, the output end of the hot air blower is located on the back of the mounting plate, and three exhaust pipes are fixedly inserted on the front of the mounting plate. The output ends of the three exhaust pipes are all facing the U-shaped plate, and the input ends of the three exhaust pipes are all connected to the output end of the hot air blower.

[0015] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: a drive motor is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base, a rotating shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor, and one end of the rotating shaft movably passes through the shielding barrel and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning seat.

[0016] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: the bottom of the shielding bucket is connected to a drain pipe; the water accumulated inside the shielding bucket is drained through the drain pipe.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0018] In use, once the filter element has been spun dry for a certain period of time, the drive motor is promptly shut off. Due to the inertial rotation, the shaft decelerates slowly. During this time, the extended end of the control cylinder extends to its maximum length. At this point, the bottoms of the two equilateral trapezoidal plates contact the bottom of the inner wall of the slot, and the support sleeve is located between the top of the U-shaped plate and the baffle. Simultaneously, two absorbent sponges clamp the filter element, efficiently absorbing the moisture inside the outer layer of the filter element. This prevents the moisture from diffusing back into the entire filter element due to capillary action when the filter element stops rotating, ensuring the efficiency of subsequent hot air drying of the filter element.

[0019] In use, during the extension of the cylinder to a set length, the horizontal angle of the U-shaped plate is adjusted by the two inclined sides of the equilateral trapezoidal plate, facilitating the insertion of the bottom of the U-shaped plate into the slot. When the cylinder extends to the set length, both ends of the bottom of the U-shaped plate are located in the slot. The drive motor is then turned on, and the rotating shaft drives the filter element located in the two limiting slots to rotate, quickly throwing out the water inside. At this time, because the two sides of the filter element are equilateral trapezoidal plates, the water thrown out will flow out through the gap between the equilateral trapezoidal plates and the slot. The inner wall of the shielding barrel blocks the water thrown out, preventing water splashing and avoiding pollution to the surrounding area. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, the processing equipment for filter elements includes a base 4 and a mounting plate 1 fixed on top of it. A shielding bucket 7 for preventing water splashing is fixedly installed on the base 4 on the front of the mounting plate 1. A positioning mechanism 3 for fixing the filter element is provided inside the shielding bucket 7. A drying mechanism 9 for absorbing residual moisture on the surface of the filter element is provided above the positioning mechanism 3.

[0030] Please see Figures 1-3As shown, the aforementioned drying mechanism 9 includes a U-shaped plate 901. Two absorbent sponges 903 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the U-shaped plate 901, and several ventilation holes 904 are opened on both outer walls of the U-shaped plate 901. The positions of the ventilation holes 904 correspond to the positions of one of the absorbent sponges 903. An equilateral trapezoidal plate 902 is fixedly installed at both ends of the bottom of the U-shaped plate 901. During the process of extending the extended end of the control cylinder 10 to the set length, the horizontal angle of the U-shaped plate 901 is adjusted by the two inclined sides of the equilateral trapezoidal plate 902, thereby facilitating the bottom of the U-shaped plate 901. When the cylinder 10 extends to the set length, both ends of the bottom of the U-shaped plate 901 are located in the slot 302. The drive motor 5 is turned on, and the rotating shaft 6 drives the filter element located in the two limiting slots 301 to rotate, quickly throwing out the water inside. At this time, since the two sides of the filter element are equilateral trapezoidal plates 902, the water thrown out will flow out through the gap between the equilateral trapezoidal plates 902 and the slot 302. The inner wall of the shielding bucket 7 blocks the water thrown out, preventing water splashing and avoiding pollution to the surrounding area.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the positioning mechanism 3 includes a positioning seat 303. The top of the positioning seat 303 is provided with a slot 302. The two inner walls of the slot 302 are provided with limiting grooves 301 for fixing the filter element. The bottoms of the two equilateral trapezoidal plates 902 are located in the slot 302. The size of the inner wall of the slot 302 corresponds to the size of the bottom of the U-shaped plate 901. When the bottom of the U-shaped plate 901 extends into the slot 302, it is in close contact with its inner wall. With the limiting effect of the guide frame 14 on the guide rod 15, the stability of the positioning seat 303 during rotation is ensured.

[0032] Please see Figure 4 As shown, the depth of the limiting groove 301 is half the depth of the card slot 302.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, a guide frame 14 is fixedly installed on the front of the mounting plate 1. A guide rod 15 is movably inserted into the guide frame 14. The bottom end of the guide rod 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the U-shaped plate 901. A longitudinally arranged cylinder 10 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 1 on one side of the guide rod 15. A support frame 11 is fixedly installed on the extended end of the cylinder 10. After the filter element has been spun dry for a certain period of time, the drive motor 5 is turned off in time. Due to the inertial shaft 6, it will slowly decelerate. During this period, the extension of the cylinder 10 is controlled. When the outlet is extended to its maximum length, the bottom of the two equilateral trapezoidal plates 902 contacts the bottom of the inner wall of the slot 302. The support sleeve 12 is located between the top of the U-shaped plate 901 and the baffle 13. At the same time, the two water-absorbing sponges 903 clamp the filter element and efficiently absorb the moisture inside the outer layer of the filter element. This prevents the moisture from spreading back into the entire filter element due to capillary action when the filter element stops rotating, thus ensuring the efficiency of subsequent hot air drying of the filter element.

[0034] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a baffle 13 is fixedly installed in the middle of the guide frame 14. The baffle 13 is located below the guide frame 14, and a support sleeve 12 is movably sleeved on the guide rod 15 below the baffle 13. One end of the support frame 11 is fixedly connected to the support sleeve 12. Lubricating oil is provided between the baffle 13 and the support sleeve 12. The friction between the baffle 13 and the support sleeve 12 is reduced by the lubricating oil.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 As shown, a hot air blower 2 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting plate 1. The output end of the hot air blower 2 is located on the back of the mounting plate 1. Three exhaust pipes 8 are fixedly inserted on the front of the mounting plate 1. The output ends of the three exhaust pipes 8 are all facing the U-shaped plate 901, and the input ends of the three exhaust pipes 8 are all connected to the output end of the hot air blower 2. The hot air blown out from the three exhaust pipes 8 passes through several ventilation holes 904 to dry the sides of the two water-absorbing sponges 903 near the U-shaped plate 901, ensuring that the two water-absorbing sponges 903 are dried evenly and avoiding the formation of drying dead corners.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 As shown, a drive motor 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base 4, and a rotating shaft 6 is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor 5. One end of the rotating shaft 6 movably passes through the shielding barrel 7 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning seat 303.

[0037] Please see Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the aforementioned shielding bucket 7 is connected to a drain pipe; the water accumulated inside the shielding bucket 7 is drained through the drain pipe.

[0038] Working Principle: In use, firstly, when the extended end of the cylinder 10 is at its shortest length, the bottoms of both equilateral trapezoidal plates 902 are located within the slots 302, preventing the slots 302 from misaligning with the U-shaped plate 901. At this time, the filter element is installed into the two limiting slots 301. During the process of controlling the extended end of the cylinder 10 to extend to the set length, the horizontal angle of the U-shaped plate 901 is adjusted by the two inclined sides of the equilateral trapezoidal plate 902, thereby facilitating the insertion of the bottom of the U-shaped plate 901 into the slots 302. When the extended end of the cylinder 10 extends to the set length... When the filter element is at a fixed length, both ends of the bottom of the U-shaped plate 901 are located within the slots 302. The drive motor 5 is turned on, and the rotating shaft 6 rotates the filter element located in the two limiting slots 301, causing it to rotate and quickly eject the water. Because the filter element has equilateral trapezoidal plates 902 on both sides, the ejected water flows out through the gap between the trapezoidal plates 902 and the slots 302. The inner wall of the baffle 7 blocks the ejected water, preventing splashing and avoiding pollution of the surrounding area. While the filter element is being spun dry... Once the threshold is reached, the drive motor 5 is promptly shut off. Due to the slow deceleration of the inertial shaft 6, the extended end of the control cylinder 10 extends to its maximum length during this period. At this time, the bottoms of the two equilateral trapezoidal plates 902 contact the bottom of the inner wall of the slot 302. The support sleeve 12 is located between the top of the U-shaped plate 901 and the baffle 13. Simultaneously, the two absorbent sponges 903 clamp the filter element, efficiently absorbing the moisture inside the outer layer of the filter element. This prevents the moisture from diffusing back into the entire filter element due to capillary action when the filter element stops rotating. In the air purifier filter element, the efficiency of subsequent hot air drying of the filter element is ensured. When the rotating shaft 6 stops rotating, the extended end of the control cylinder 10 retracts to its shortest length. At this time, the filter element is removed from the two limiting grooves 301 by two water-absorbing sponges 903, making it convenient for manual removal. Then, the hot air blower 2 is turned on, and hot air is blown onto the U-shaped plate 901 in conjunction with the three exhaust pipes 8. During the time it takes to insert the next filter element into the two limiting grooves 301, the two water-absorbing sponges 903 are quickly dried to ensure the efficiency of drying subsequent filter elements.
