Description

[0002] Extraction is a crucial process in the production of microporous membranes using thermally induced phase separation. In traditional membrane production lines, gas escape during the extraction stage has always been a problem. Extractant consumption not only affects production costs but also poses safety risks due to volatilization and leakage. Given the inherent volatility of extractants, minimizing fugitive leakage is paramount. Since extractant volatilization is related to the leakage area, reducing the leakage area is an effective way to reduce extractant consumption. Existing production lines often employ open structures or use baffles placed on the top and bottom of the membrane to reduce the contact area between the extraction stage and the external environment. However, baffles offer poor sealing, are not adjustable, and easily scratch the membrane, failing to effectively reduce extractant leakage.

[0059] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and do not constitute a limitation thereof.

[0060] refer to Figure 1-8 A gas isolation device for a thin film production line includes: a film sealing device 1, a fixed isolation device 2, and a movable isolation device 3;

[0061] The tank 6 is the original structure on the film production line. The gas isolation device is installed on the tank 6. Rollers 7 for conveying the film are installed in front of the extraction outlet and inlet of the extraction section of the film production line. The film enters or leaves the extraction section through the membrane sealing device 1 under the drive of the rollers 7.

[0062] The membrane sealing device 1 is located between the tank 6 and the roller 7; one end of the membrane sealing device 1 is fixed on the tank, and the other end is close to the roller 7 to seal both ends of the roller 7 in the length direction; the membrane sealing device 1 is a channel structure, and the film enters or leaves the extraction section of the film production line through the membrane sealing device 1 under the drive of the roller 7.

[0063] The movable partition device 3 and the fixed partition device 2 are installed on the tank body 6 and located on the upper and lower sides of the roller 7. A small gap is formed between the two and the roller 7, allowing the roller 7 to rotate and drive the film through.

[0064] The lower part of the fixed partition device is fixed to the trough 6, and the upper part of the fixed partition device is close to the lower part of the roller 7; it is used to seal the lower part of the roller 7.

[0065] The movable partition device 3 is fixed on the tank body 6; it is used to seal the roller 7 and the film on top of it; it should be noted that the film is conveyed through the roller 7 during the production process, and the film is located between the roller 7 and the movable partition device 3.

[0066] The roller 7 is sealed by the cooperation of the membrane sealing device 1, the fixed partition device 2 and the movable partition device 3, which greatly reduces the contact area between the extraction section and the outside world, improves the negative pressure efficiency of the extraction section, and reduces the escape and consumption of the extractant.

[0067] Further reference Figure 1-3 The membrane sealing device 1 includes: a membrane channel 11, a channel sealing gasket 12, a side sealing gasket 13, a membrane port sealing gasket 14, and an opening side plate 15;

[0068] The membrane passage 11 is connected to the tank 6 by bolts, and the tank 6 and the membrane passage 11 are sealed by a channel sealing gasket 12;

[0069] An open side plate 15 is provided on the side of the film passage 11 near the roller 7; there are two open side plates 15 respectively provided on the left and right sides of the film passage 11; a side sealing gasket 13 is provided on the open side plate 15 near the roller 7.

[0070] The membrane passage 11 is provided with membrane port sealing gaskets 14 at both the top and bottom. The membrane port sealing gaskets 14 are connected to the fixed partition device 2 and the movable partition device 3 respectively to form a sealing structure. The gap between the roller 7 and the left and right sides of the membrane passage 11 is sealed by the side sealing gaskets 13.

[0071] Further reference Figure 3-4 The side plate 15 has a semi-circular opening with a radius larger than that of the roller 7, and the side sealing gasket 13 has a semi-circular structure with a radius slightly larger than that of the roller 7.

[0072] By adjusting the installation position of the side sealing gasket 13 on the opening side plate 15, the gap between the roller 7 and the side sealing gasket 13 is ensured, thereby achieving the purpose of sealing the membrane passage 11 and the roller 7.

[0073] Further reference Figure 5 The fixed partition device 2 includes: a fixed mounting base 21, a lower spacer plate 22, a partition plate 23, a fixed partition screw 24, a first cover plate 25, a first Z-shaped plate 26, a lower lifting sealing strip 27, and a support 28;

[0074] The fixed mounting base 21 is a U-shaped groove structure with the opening facing upward. The fixed mounting base 21 can also be made by welding square and rectangular tubes with angle steel, which makes the fixed mounting base 21 with higher strength. The fixed mounting base 21 is fixed to the top of the support 28, and the support 28 is fixedly installed on the groove body 6.

[0075] The fixed mounting base 21 has an adjustment window on the front for adjusting the partition plate 23. The first cover plate 25 is fastened to the adjustment window to seal the adjustment window.

[0076] There are several partition plates 23 and lower spacer plates 22. In this embodiment, there are six partition plates 23 and seven lower spacer plates 22. The partition plates 23 and lower spacer plates 22 are arranged at intervals. The partition plates 23 are made of a soft material that is resistant to the corrosion of the extractant, such as polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0077] The fixed mounting base 21 has a through hole on the front and a back plate welded to the inner side of the back. The back plate has a threaded hole concentric with the through hole. After the fixed partition screw 24 passes through the through hole, it passes through the partition plates 23 and the lower spacer plate 22 arranged at intervals in sequence and is then screwed into the threaded hole.

[0078] A nut is welded to the inner side of the back of the fixed mounting base 21. The first Z-shaped plate 26 is fixedly connected to the back of the mounting base 21 by bolts. The first Z-shaped plate 26 is connected to the lower lifting sealing strip 27 by countersunk bolts and nuts. It should be noted that the lower lifting sealing strip 27 has a double-layer structure. The countersunk bolt passes through the inner layer structure and is connected to the first Z-shaped plate 26. The outer layer structure covers the countersunk bolt and the inner layer structure. The advantage of this is that the countersunk bolt can be hidden and sealed inside the lower lifting sealing strip 27 to prevent the countersunk bolt from being exposed. Because if the countersunk bolt is exposed, it will affect the sealing effect when sealing with the membrane sealing gasket 14.

[0079] The upper surface of the outer layer of the lower lifting sealing strip 27 is pressed and sealed with the lower surface of the through-membrane sealing gasket 14.

[0080] Furthermore, the lower spacer plate 22 has a through hole for installation with the fixed partition screw 24, and the partition plate 23 has a vertical elongated hole. The vertical position of the partition plate 23 can be adjusted through the elongated hole. Tightening the fixed partition screw 24 secures the partition plate 23 and the lower spacer plate 22 inside the fixed mounting base 21. Adjusting the vertical position of the partition plate 23 through the elongated hole ensures that there is only a small gap between the top of the partition plate 23 and the roller 7. The multi-layer partition plates 23 form a labyrinth seal, achieving a sealing effect between the fixed partition device 2 and the roller 7.

[0081] Further reference Figure 6 The movable partition device 3 includes: a movable mounting base 31, an upper spacer plate 32, a movable plate 33, a sealing brush 34, a movable partition screw 35, a second cover plate 36, a second Z-shaped plate 37, and an upper lifting sealing strip 38.

[0082] The movable mounting base 31 is a U-shaped groove structure with the opening facing downward. The front of the movable mounting base 31 has an adjustment window for adjusting the movable plate 33. The adjustment window is sealed by fastening it to the second cover plate 36.

[0083] There are multiple movable plates 33 and upper fixed-distance plates 32. In this embodiment, there are six movable plates 33 and seven upper fixed-distance plates 32; the movable plates 33 and upper fixed-distance plates 32 are arranged at intervals.

[0084] The movable mounting base 31 has a through hole on the front and a back plate welded to the inner side of the back. The back plate has a threaded hole concentric with the through hole. After the movable partition screw 35 passes through the through hole, it passes through the spaced movable plate 33 and the upper spacer plate 32 and is screwed into the threaded hole, thereby fixing the movable plate 33 and the upper spacer plate 32 on the movable mounting base 31.

[0085] Nuts are welded to the inner side of the back of the movable mounting base 31. The second Z-shaped plate 37 is fixed to the back of the movable mounting base 31 with bolts. The second Z-shaped plate 37 is connected to the upper lifting sealing strip 38 by bolts. The lower surface of the upper lifting sealing strip 38 is pressed and sealed with the upper surface of the membrane port sealing gasket 14.

[0086] The top of the movable mounting base 31 is connected to the lifting device 4, and the whole structure is raised when the rope is threaded.

[0087] The sealing brush 34 has a brush-like structure and is fixed to the bottom of the moving plate 33. In this embodiment, there are six sealing brushes 34, which are fixed to the bottom of six moving plates 33 respectively. There is a small gap between the lower end of the sealing brush 34 and the roller 7. The sealing brush 34 will not damage the film surface during film production and can also remove static electricity. The multi-layer sealing brush 34 can also compensate for the movement error of the moving partition device 3. The six layers of sealing brushes 34 form a labyrinth seal to achieve the sealing effect between the moving partition device 3 and the roller 7.

[0088] refer to Figure 7Furthermore, the upper spacer plate 32 has a through hole for installation in conjunction with the movable partition screw 35, and the movable plate 33 has a vertical elongated hole. The vertical position of the movable plate 33 can be adjusted through the elongated hole. The movable plate 33 and the upper spacer plate 32 are fixed inside the movable mounting base 31 by tightening the movable partition screw 35.

[0089] Furthermore, the lifting device 4 is fixed to the upper part of the tank 6, and its lower part is connected to the movable partition device 3; the lifting device 4 drives the movable partition device 3 to move up and down; the lifting device 4 includes: a lifting seat 41 and a first cylinder 43.

[0090] The lower end of the lifting seat 41 is connected to the movable partition device 3 by bolts, and the upper end of the lifting seat 41 is connected to the telescopic end of the first cylinder 43. The first cylinder 43 is fixed on the trough 6.

[0091] The lifting and lowering of the movable partition device 3 is controlled by the lifting and lowering of the first cylinder 43; the function of passing through the membrane when threading the rope is achieved by retracting the first cylinder 43.

[0092] Furthermore, the lifting device 4 also includes a cylinder guide seat 42, a guide rod 44, a bushing 45, a shaft end baffle 46, a screw 47, and a guide seat support 48;

[0093] The fixed end of the first cylinder 43 is mounted on the cylinder guide seat 42, and the cylinder guide seat 42 is connected to the guide seat support 48 on the groove 6 by bolts; the cylinder guide seat 42 is set vertically.

[0094] The upper surface of the lifting seat 41 is provided with two threaded holes, one for connecting the first cylinder 43 and the other for connecting the guide rod 44;

[0095] The lifting seat 41 is connected to the lower end of the guide rod 44. A bushing 45 is fitted onto the guide rod 44. A shaft end baffle 46 is installed on the upper end of the guide rod 44 by screws 47. The shaft end baffle 46 is used to fix the bushing 45. The guide rod 44 with the bushing 45 moves up and down inside the cylinder guide seat 42, causing the first cylinder 43 to drive the movable partition device 3 to move in the vertical direction, thus guiding the lifting and lowering of the movable partition device 3. It should be noted that the bushing 45 is made of wear-resistant non-metallic material, such as polytetrafluoroethylene, to avoid friction between the bushing 45 and the cylinder guide seat 42 to generate metal foreign objects.

[0096] refer to Figure 8 Furthermore, it also includes a cover plate opening and closing device 5, which includes: a third cover plate 51, a hinge 52, a second cylinder 53, and a cylinder mounting base 54.

[0097] A rope-threading channel is provided on the membrane passage 11; the third cover plate 51 is fastened to the opening of the rope-threading channel; the third cover plate 51 is connected to the opening of the rope-threading channel through a hinge 52 to realize the opening and closing of the third cover plate 51.

[0098] The extension end of the second cylinder 53 is hinged to the third cover plate 51, and the other end of the second cylinder 53 is hinged to the cylinder mounting seat 54 on the trough 6; the extension and retraction of the second cylinder 53 controls the opening and closing of the cover plate opening and closing device 5, so as to realize the function of the chain passing through the membrane when inserting the membrane.

[0099] The third cover plate 51 has an opening that allows only the chain to pass through, reducing the contact area between the extraction section and the outside world.

[0100] The present invention can adjust the gap between the movable partition device 3 and the roller 7 through the lifting device, and can also achieve the purpose of threading rope, so as to adapt to different production needs.

[0101] Working principle:

[0102] The film production line uses rollers 7 to transport the film. The fixed partition device 2 and the movable partition device 3 of this device are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the first and last rollers 7 in the extraction section. The partition plates 23 and the sealing brushes 34 in the fixed partition device 2 and the movable partition device 3 form a labyrinth seal along the rollers 7. The gap between the partition plates 23 of the fixed partition device 2 and the rollers 7 only allows the rollers 7 to rotate, and the gap between the sealing brushes 34 in the movable partition device 3 and the rollers 7 only allows the film to pass through. Since there is a wrap angle between the film and the rollers 7, the film will not flutter, and the sealing brushes 34 are made of flexible material, so there is no possibility of scraping or breaking the film. The opening side plate 15 and the side sealing gasket 13 of the film sealing device 1 seal the gaps between the rollers 7 and the film passage 11 on the left and right sides axially. Therefore, the left and right sides of the rollers 7 are sealed, and the upper and lower sides are sealed by the movable partition device 3 and the fixed partition device 2, which can reduce the escape of the extractant. At this time, in conjunction with the negative pressure system in the extraction section, the escape of the extractant can be reduced even more effectively.

[0103] The working process of this invention:

[0104] First, by adjusting the positions of the partition plate 23 and the sealing brush 34 in the fixed partition device 2 and the movable partition device 3, a suitable small gap is formed between them and the roller 7.

[0105] Then, operate the lifting device 4 to raise the movable partition device 3, open the third cover plate 51 through the cover plate opening and closing device 5, prepare for the rope threading work, start the rope threading chain, and let the film pass through the film passage 11 to complete the rope threading operation.

[0106] After the rope is threaded, the movable partition device 3 is lowered to the preset position, the third cover plate 51 is closed, and film production begins. During the production process, the film passage 11, the fixed partition device 2 and the movable partition device 3 work together to seal the periphery of the roller 7, which can effectively reduce the escape of the extractant.
