DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0019] The present invention can clean the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 by setting a cleaning mechanism 8, thereby extending the service life of the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 to ensure the filtering effect and filtering efficiency of the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2; the kinetic energy generated by the raw water is controlled by the first control valve 4 to drive the cleaning mechanism 8 to clean the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, and at the same time, the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 is driven to vibrate by the vibration mechanism 9, thereby accelerating the shedding of impurities on the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, improving the cleaning effect, and the impurities are discharged through the discharge pipe 6.

[0020] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 The cleaning mechanism 8 includes a rotating ring 10 rotatably connected to the mounting groove 7, a cleaning plate 11 is fixedly connected to the rotating ring 10 in an array, a gear ring 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating ring 10 located in the mounting groove 7, a rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the outer shell 1 near the gear ring 12, one end of the rotating shaft 13 located in the mounting groove 7 is fixedly connected to a first gear 14, and one end of the rotating shaft 13 extending to the outside of the outer shell 1 is fixedly connected to a second gear 15, and the outer wall of the outer shell 1 near the second gear 15 is fixedly connected to a driving component 16 for driving the second gear 15 to rotate.

[0021] The flow of raw water is controlled by the first control valve 4, thereby driving the second gear 15 to circulate through the driving component 16, thereby driving the rotating shaft 13 to rotate, the rotating shaft 13 drives the first gear 14 to rotate, thereby driving the ring gear 12 to rotate, and then driving the rotating ring 10 to rotate, the rotating ring 10 drives the cleaning plate 11 to circulate, thereby cleaning the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 to ensure the filtering effect and filtering effect of the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, the driving component 16 drives the water at both ends of the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 to move repeatedly, thereby repeatedly flushing the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2.

[0022] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3The driving assembly 16 includes a water storage barrel 17 fixedly connected to the outer shell 1, and a partition plate 18 is slidably connected inside the water storage barrel 17. The partition plate 18 divides the internal space of the water storage barrel 17 into a raw water chamber 19 and a clean water chamber 20. A first connecting pipe 22 is fixedly connected between the clean water chamber 20 and the central tube 21 of the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, and a second connecting pipe 23 is fixedly connected between the raw water chamber 19 and the water inlet pipe 3. A driving rod 24 is fixedly connected to the partition plate 18, and one end of the driving rod 24 extending outside the water storage barrel 17 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 25. A rack 26 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the water storage barrel 17 near the second gear 15, and one end of the rack 26 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 25.

[0023] When the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 needs to be cleaned, the clean water pipe 5 is closed and the discharge pipe 6 is opened. The water output of the discharge pipe 6 is less than the water input of the water inlet pipe 3. At this time, the raw water is filtered through the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, and the filtered water is in the central pipe 21. The central pipe 21 is connected to the first connecting pipe 22, so that the filtered water enters the clean water chamber 20 through the first connecting pipe 22, thereby increasing the water pressure in the clean water chamber 20, thereby pushing the partition plate 18 to move, and the partition plate 18 drives the driving rod 24 to move, thereby driving the connecting plate 25 to move, and then driving the rack 26 to move. The rack 26 drives the second gear 15 to rotate to drive the cleaning plate 11 to clean the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, and then the first control valve 4 is closed. At this time, the raw water flows into the clean water chamber 20 from the water inlet pipe 3. The filtered water in the clean water chamber 20 flows into the central tube 21 through the first connecting tube 22, and then flows into the cavity between the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 and the outer shell 1 through the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, thereby realizing repeated flushing of the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, loosening the impurities on the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, opening the first control valve 4 again, repeating the above process, and repeatedly flushing the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, thereby improving the cleaning effect; at the same time, the kinetic energy generated by the raw water is used for flushing, and there is no need to set up an additional power source for cleaning, thereby reducing energy consumption.

[0024] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5 The vibration mechanism 9 includes a mounting block 27 fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 13 near the second gear 15, a push rod 28 is fixedly connected to the mounting block 27 in an array, a sliding rod 29 is slidably connected through the outer shell 1 near the rotating shaft 13, one end of the sliding rod 29 near the pushing rod 28 is fixedly connected to a fixed block 30, and one side of the fixed block 30 near the pushing rod 28 is fixedly connected to an arc block 31, a spring 32 is sleeved on the sliding rod 29, one end of the spring 32 is fixedly connected to the fixed block 30, and the other end of the spring 32 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer shell 1, and one end of the sliding rod 29 extending into the mounting groove 7 is fixedly connected to a knocking block 33.

[0025] See also Figure 3 , the striking block 33 abuts against the rotating ring 10.

[0026] When the rotating shaft 13 rotates, the mounting block 27 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the pushing rod 28 to rotate. The pushing rod 28 rotates and abuts against the arc block 31, thereby driving the arc block 31 to move, and then driving the fixed block 30 to move. The movement of the fixed block 30 overcomes the elastic force of the spring 32 and drives the sliding rod 29 to move, thereby driving the knocking block 33 to move. When the pushing rod 28 rotates and passes through the arc surface of the arc block 31, the pushing rod 28 disengages from the arc block 31, and drives the fixed block 30 to move under the elastic force of the spring 32, thereby driving the sliding rod 29 to move, and then driving the knocking block 33 to move. The knocking block 33 knocks the rotating ring 10, causing the rotating ring 10 to vibrate. The vibration of the rotating ring 10 drives the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 to vibrate through the cleaning plate 11, thereby accelerating the shedding of impurities on the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2, and further improving the cleaning effect.

[0027] See also Figure 5 The push rod 28 abuts against the arc block 31, and the push rod 28 slides along the arc surface of the arc block 31 to drive the arc block 31 to move, so that when the push rod 28 rotates, it can cyclically drive the arc block 31 to move, so that the knocking block 33 can continuously knock the rotating ring 10, causing it to continuously vibrate.

[0028] See also Figure 3 The rack 26 is meshed with the second gear 15 , and when the rack 26 moves, it drives the second gear 15 to rotate, thereby driving the cleaning plate 11 to clean the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2 .

[0029] See also Figure 3 The width of the rotating ring 10 is equal to the width of the installation groove 7, so that the installation groove 7 is in a closed environment to prevent raw water from entering the installation groove 7.

[0030] See also Figure 3 The first gear 14 is meshed with the ring gear 12 , and when the first gear 14 rotates, it can drive the ring gear 12 to rotate.

[0031] See also Figure 1 A second control valve 34 is installed on the clean water pipe 5, and a third control valve 35 is installed on the discharge pipe 6. The second control valve 34 and the third control valve 35 are used to control the opening and closing of the clean water pipe 5 and the discharge pipe 6, thereby achieving cleaning of the nanofiltration membrane assembly 2.

[0032] 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.
