DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0035] Embodiment 1: Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the hydrogel-reverse osmosis membrane coupled interface evaporation device for high-salt water desalination treatment described in the embodiment of the present invention comprises an evaporation device body 1, an electronic balance 2, a sunlight simulation device 3 and a constant temperature and humidity chamber 4; the evaporation device body 1 is placed as a whole in the constant temperature and humidity chamber 4, the constant temperature and humidity chamber 4 is used to ensure constant temperature and humidity during the evaporation process, the electronic balance 2 is used to measure the mass change of the evaporation device body 1 and calculate the evaporation rate, and the sunlight simulation device 3 is used to simulate sunlight;
[0036] The evaporation device body 1 includes an evaporator 5, a reverse osmosis membrane body 6, fiber paper, hydrogel, a water storage bin 7, a sealing ring 8 and a sealing cover 9. The top and bottom surfaces of the reverse osmosis membrane body 6 are fixedly connected with a sealing ring 8. The top surface of the water storage bin 7 is sealed with the sealing ring 8. The water storage bin 7 is used to hold high-salt water to be treated. The bottom surface of the sealing cover 9 is sealed with the sealing ring 8. One side of the water storage bin 7 is connected with a water replenishment channel 10. The evaporator 5 is inserted in the sealing cover 9. The water storage bin 7 is provided with a water replenishment mechanism for replenishing water inside.
[0037] The evaporator 5 is composed of glass fiber paper and hydrogel. The glass fiber paper is used as an intermediate layer and is tightly wrapped by the hydrogel. The hydrogel is composed of acrylamide hydrogel or 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate hydrogel. The water content of the hydrogel is 30-60% by mass.
[0038] The sealing ring 8 has a thickness of 1 to 5 mm, and has a circular opening in the middle for storing deionized water. The sealing ring 8 is connected to the evaporator 5 to supply water to the evaporator 5. A vertical slit of 1 to 2 mm is provided in the middle of the sealing cover 9, and the evaporator 5 is vertically inserted into the slit. A sealing structure for sealing the evaporator 5 is provided on the sealing cover 9. When the device is running, the bottom of the evaporator 5 extends into the hollow interior of the sealing ring 8 by 1 to 5 mm and does not contact the reverse osmosis membrane body 6.
[0039] The evaporation device body 1 is sealed, and the power for water to pass through the reverse osmosis membrane body 6 is provided by the Laplace force generated by the evaporation of the hydrogel surface. The reverse osmosis membrane body 6 needs to be soaked in deionized water for 24 hours before use to completely wet the membrane. The reverse osmosis front side of the reverse osmosis membrane body 6 faces downward and is in direct contact with the high-salt water in the water storage tank 7.
[0040] Embodiment 2: Figures 3 to 9 As shown, compared with Example 1, another embodiment of the present invention is: the water replenishment mechanism includes a water replenishment tank 12 fixed on the water storage bin 7 by a bracket, the bottom end of the water replenishment tank 12 is connected with a water inlet pipe 13, the side of the water replenishment tank 12 close to the water replenishment channel 10 is connected with a water outlet pipe 14, the water inlet pipe 13 and the water outlet pipe 14 are both provided with sealing mechanisms, the water outlet pipe 14 and the water replenishment channel 10 are connected with a conduit 11, the side of the water storage bin 7 away from the water replenishment channel 10 is connected with a round pipe provided with a water inlet check valve, the inner wall of the water replenishment tank 12 is sealingly and slidably connected with a push plate 22, and the water replenishment tank 12 is provided with a driving mechanism for driving the push plate 22 to move;
[0041] During the execution of the evaporation operation, in order to ensure that the water volume in the water storage tank 7 is maintained in a sufficient state, the water replenishment process currently relies on manual operation, which increases the complexity of replenishing salt water to a certain extent. If the staff fails to replenish the salt water in time, it may have an adverse effect on the normal operation of the entire device. The present invention opens the sealing mechanism in the water inlet pipe 13 and the water outlet pipe 14, and then connects an external pipe to the water inlet pipe 13, so that the salt water can enter the water replenishment tank 12 from the water inlet pipe 13 for storage. When the water level in the water replenishment tank 12 rises, it will push the push plate 22 to move upward, and the water in the water replenishment tank 12 will be stored. After storage is completed, the sealing mechanism will seal the water inlet pipe 13, and then use the circular tube to inject brine into the water storage tank 7. At this time, when the device is working, when the brine in the water storage tank 7 is insufficient, the driving mechanism will drive the push plate 22 to move downward, thereby pushing the water in the water replenishment tank 12, and the sealing mechanism in the water storage outlet pipe 14 will open, so that the brine enters the water storage tank 7 along the outlet pipe 14, the conduit 11 and the water replenishment channel 10 to replenish the brine in the water storage tank 7. The above mechanism achieves the effect of automatically replenishing the water in the water storage tank 7, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the device.
[0042] The driving mechanism includes an electromagnet 21 fixed to the top surface of the inner wall of the water replenishment tank 12, the push plate 22 is made of a magnetic material that repels the electromagnet 21, a group of first springs are fixedly connected between the top surface of the push plate 22 and the water replenishment tank 12, the side wall of the water storage tank 7 is connected to a warning tube, the warning tube is fixedly connected to a guide rod 18 and a first contact 19 on the side of the inner wall away from the water storage tank 7, a disc 17 is sealed and slidably connected to the guide rod 18, the disc 17 is sealed and slidably connected to the inner wall of the warning tube, the disc 17 is made of a lightweight material that can float, and the disc 17 is fixedly connected to a second contact 20 on the side away from the water storage tank 7, and the electromagnet 21 can be started when the first contact 19 is separated from the second contact 20, 7 seconds to 10 seconds;
[0043] In the present application, when salt water is injected into the water storage tank 7 through the circular tube, the salt water will enter the warning tube. As the water level rises, the salt water will push the disc 17 to move in the warning tube, so that the first contact 19 contacts the second contact 20. In the process of the water level in the water storage tank 7 continuously decreasing, after the water level drops below the highest point of the warning tube, the disc 17 will move with the water level. At this time, the first contact 19 will be disengaged from the second contact 20, thereby starting the electromagnet 21 to push the push plate 22 to push the water in the water replenishment tank 12 into the water storage tank 7. Through the above mechanism, when the water level in the water storage tank 7 drops to a predetermined position, the water storage tank 7 can be automatically replenished with water.
[0044] The sealing mechanism includes a sealing ball 15 arranged in the water inlet pipe 13 and the water outlet pipe 14. The interiors of the water inlet pipe 13 and the water outlet pipe 14 are both funnel-shaped. The end with a larger opening of the water inlet pipe 13 faces upward, and the end with a larger opening of the water outlet pipe 14 is close to the conduit 11. The sealing ball 15 is connected to the water inlet pipe 13 and the water outlet pipe 14 through an elastic rope 16;
[0045] When water is introduced into the water inlet pipe 13, the water flow will push the sealing ball 15 in the water inlet pipe 13 to no longer seal the water inlet pipe 13. At this time, water will enter the water supply tank 12. When the water level reaches the water outlet pipe 14, the elastic rope 16 pulls the sealing ball 15 in the water outlet pipe 14, so that the sealing ball 15 can continue to seal the water outlet pipe 14. After the water supply tank 12 is filled with water, the water injection is stopped. At this time, the elastic rope 16 will pull the sealing ball 15 to seal the water inlet pipe 13. When the water storage tank 7 needs to be replenished with water, the push plate 22 pushes the water. At this time, the water will push the water outlet pipe 14. The sealing ball 15 inside the water outlet pipe 13 makes the sealing ball 15 no longer seal the water outlet pipe 14. The sealing ball 15 in the water inlet pipe 13 will only fit more closely with the inner wall of the water inlet pipe 13 when pushed by the water pressure to prevent water leakage. After the water storage tank 7 is replenished with water, the sealing elastic rope 16 in the water outlet pipe 14 will seal the water outlet pipe 14 to prevent the first spring from pulling the push plate 22 to reset, which will suck the water in the water storage tank 7 out from the conduit 11. When the push plate 22 is reset, it will suck the sealing ball 15 in the water inlet pipe 13, so that air can enter the water replenishment tank 12 to allow the push plate 22 to reset.
[0046] The bottom surface of the push plate 22 is fixedly connected with an elastic plate 25, and a plurality of groups of circular holes 31 are provided in the elastic plate 25, and impact balls are arranged in the circular holes 31; in the present application, the water to be used is salt water. If there is water remaining on the bottom surface of the push plate 22, crystals will be formed, which will affect the use of the push plate 22 for a long time. At this time, the electromagnet 21 can be manually operated to be started intermittently and the push plate 22 can be pushed repeatedly. At this time, the push plate 22 will drive the elastic plate 25 to move up and down under the action of the first spring. At this time, the impact balls in the elastic plate 25 will hit the circular holes 31, thereby making the elastic plate 25 shake. At this time, the elastic plate 25 is in contact with the water, and the water will remain on the elastic plate 25, thereby shaking off the water on the elastic plate 25 to prevent water from remaining on the bottom surface of the elastic plate 25.
[0047] The sealing structure includes a hollow elastic disk 37 fixedly connected to the top surface of the sealing cover 9, a plug hole 34 corresponding to the slit on the sealing cover 9 is provided on the elastic disk 37, a cavity 23 is provided in the water replenishment tank 12, a magnetic plate 26 magnetically attracted to the push plate 22 is sealed and slidably connected in the cavity 23, a second spring is fixedly connected between the top surface of the magnetic plate 26 and the inner wall of the cavity 23, a connecting pipe 24 is connected between the cavity 23 and the elastic disk 37, and a disengagement mechanism for disengaging the magnetic plate 26 from the push plate 22 is provided in the water replenishment tank 12;
[0048] In the present application, the electromagnet 21 pushes the push plate 22 to move downward. At this time, there is no water in the water replenishment tank 12. At this time, the push plate 22 will drive the magnetic plate 26 to move downward. At this time, the cavity 23 will absorb the gas in the elastic disk 37 from the connecting pipe 24, so that the elastic disk 37 will shrink. At this time, the aperture of the plug hole 34 will become larger, which is convenient for the evaporator 5 to be inserted into the plug hole 34. Then the evaporator 5 is inserted into the plug hole 34. At this time, the evaporator 5 will enter the slit. At the same time, the function of shrinking the elastic disk 37 is also conducive to the subsequent removal of the evaporator 5. Then the electromagnet 21 is closed. At this time, the second spring The magnetic plate 26 will be pulled to reset, and the first spring will also drive the push plate 22 to reset. When the magnetic plate 26 is reset, it will push the gas in the cavity 23 from the connecting pipe 24 into the elastic disk 37 to expand. At this time, the socket 34 will fit with the evaporator 5, so as to achieve the effect of sealing the evaporator 5. After that, water is added to the water replenishment tank 12. When the push plate 22 moves downward to push the water, the magnetic plate 26 is separated from the push plate 22 through the disengagement mechanism, so that when the push plate 22 moves downward, it will not drive the magnetic plate 26 to move downward, thereby preventing the elastic disk 37 from drying up and affecting the sealing of the evaporator 5.
[0049] The disengagement mechanism includes a driving block 29 fixedly connected to the side of the push plate 22 close to the cavity 23, the side of the driving block 29 close to the cavity 23 is sealed with the inner wall of the water replenishment tank 12, and this side is open, the bottom surface of the water replenishment tank 12 is provided with a water inlet hole 30, the inner wall of the cavity 23 is provided with a slide connected to the inner wall of the water replenishment tank 12, the inner wall of the slide is sealed and slidably connected with a block 27, the bottom surface of the slide is provided with a limiting groove 28, the limiting groove 28 is fixedly connected with an elastic member for resetting the block 27, and the inner wall of the cavity 23 is fixedly connected with a limiting block located above the magnetic plate 26;
[0050] In the present invention, when the push plate 22 moves downward to push the water, the water will enter the driving block 29 from the circular hole 31. Then, when the driving block 29 reaches the push block, the push plate 22 is aligned with the magnetic plate 26. At this time, the driving block 29 continues to move downward, and the water pressure will push the stopper 27, so that the stopper 27 blocks the magnetic plate 26. After that, when the push plate 22 moves to the position of the magnetic plate 26, because the magnetic plate 26 is limited by the stopper 27, the push plate 22 cannot drive the magnetic plate 26 to move downward. Until the top surface of the driving block 29 is separated from the stopper 27, the elastic member will drive the push block to reset. When no water is added to the water replenishment tank 12, when the push plate 22 is moving, there will be no water to push the push block. At this time, the magnetic plate 26 can be driven to move normally. Through the above-mentioned mechanism, the connection state of the magnetic plate 26 and the push plate 22 can be controlled under different circumstances.
[0051] The elastic disk 37 is provided with a group of connecting grooves 35 connected with the circular hole 31. The inner wall of the connecting groove 35 is fixedly connected with an arc-shaped elastic sheet 32. The elastic sheet 32 is arched toward the side close to the circular hole 31. A group of grooves 33 are provided on the arched side of the elastic sheet 32. The grooves 33 are twisted by a torsion spring torsion joint scraper 36.
[0052] In the present application, during the expansion of the elastic disk 37, the gas preferentially pushes the elastic sheet 32 to expand, so that the elastic sheet 32 fits with the evaporator 5, and then the circular hole 31 fits with the evaporator 5. The double sealing of the elastic sheet 32 and the circular hole 31 can improve the sealing effect of the evaporator 5. When the elastic sheet 32 fits with the evaporator 5, the scraper will rotate and be retracted into the groove 33. When the elastic disk 37 is deflated, the elastic sheet 32 will move away from the evaporator 5. At this time, the scraper 36 will contact the evaporator 5. Then, when the evaporator 5 is taken away, the scraper 36 will scrape off the water on the evaporator 5. When the evaporator 5 is in use, water will remain on the surface of the evaporator 5. The scraped water will enter the water storage tank 7 for continued use, thereby preventing unnecessary waste.

[0070] Working principle: The present invention opens the sealing mechanism in the water inlet pipe 13 and the water outlet pipe 14, and then connects an external pipe to the water inlet pipe 13, so that the salt water can enter the water replenishment tank 12 from the water inlet pipe 13 for storage. When the water level in the water replenishment tank 12 rises, it will push the push plate 22 to move upward. After the water in the water replenishment tank 12 is stored, the sealing mechanism will seal the water inlet pipe 13, and then use the round pipe to inject salt water into the water storage tank 7. At this time, when the device is working, if the salt water in the water storage tank 7 is insufficient, the driving mechanism will drive the push plate 22 to move downward, thereby pushing the water in the water replenishment tank 12, and the sealing mechanism in the water storage outlet pipe 14 will open, so that the salt water can enter the water storage tank 7 along the outlet pipe 14, the conduit 11 and the water replenishment channel 10, so as to replenish the salt water in the water storage tank 7. The above mechanism achieves the effect of automatically replenishing the water in the water storage tank 7, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the device; when the salt water is injected into the water storage tank 7 through the round tube, the salt water will enter the warning tube, and as the water level rises, the salt water will push the disc 17 to move in the warning tube, so that the first contact 19 contacts the second contact 20. In the process of the water level in the water storage tank 7 continuously decreasing, after the water level drops below the highest point of the warning tube, the disc 17 will move with the water level, and the first contact 19 will be separated from the second contact 20, thereby starting the electromagnet 21 to push the push plate 22 to push the water in the water replenishment tank 12 into the water storage tank 7. The above mechanism can achieve the effect of automatically replenishing the water storage tank 7 when the water level in the water storage tank 7 drops to a predetermined position;
[0071] When the water inlet pipe 13 is filled with water, the water flow will push the sealing ball 15 in the water inlet pipe 13 to no longer seal the water inlet pipe 13. At this time, water will enter the water replenishment tank 12. When the water level reaches the water outlet pipe 14, the elastic rope 16 pulls the sealing ball 15 in the water outlet pipe 14, so that the sealing ball 15 can continue to seal the water outlet pipe 14. After the water replenishment tank 12 is filled with water, the water injection is stopped. At this time, the elastic rope 16 will pull the sealing ball 15 to seal the water inlet pipe 13. When the water storage tank 7 needs to be replenished with water again, the push plate 22 pushes the water. At this time, the water will push the sealing ball 15 in the water outlet pipe 14, so that the sealing ball 15 no longer seals the water outlet pipe 14. The sealing ball 15 in the water inlet pipe 13 will only fit more closely with the inner wall of the water inlet pipe 13 when pushed by the water pressure to prevent water leakage. After the water storage tank 7 is replenished with water, the sealing elastic rope in the water outlet pipe 14 When the push plate 22 is reset, the sealing ball 15 in the water inlet pipe 13 is sucked out, so that air can be taken into the water replenishment tank 12 to reset the push plate 22. In this application, the water to be used is salt water. If there is water remaining on the bottom surface of the push plate 22, it will form crystals, which will affect the use of the push plate 22 for a long time. At this time, the electromagnet 21 can be manually operated to start intermittently and push the push plate 22 repeatedly. At this time, the push plate 22 will drive the elastic plate 25 to move up and down under the action of the first spring. At this time, the impact ball in the elastic plate 25 will hit the circular hole 31, so that the elastic plate 25 will shake. At this time, the elastic plate 25 is in contact with the water, and the water will remain on the elastic plate 25, thereby shaking off the water on the elastic plate 25 to prevent water from remaining on the bottom surface of the elastic plate 25.
[0072] In the present application, the electromagnet 21 pushes the push plate 22 to move downward. At this time, there is no water in the water replenishment tank 12. At this time, the push plate 22 will drive the magnetic plate 26 to move downward. At this time, the cavity 23 will absorb the gas in the elastic disk 37 from the connecting pipe 24, so that the elastic disk 37 will shrink. At this time, the aperture of the plug hole 34 will become larger, which is convenient for the evaporator 5 to be inserted into the plug hole 34. Then the evaporator 5 is inserted into the plug hole 34. At this time, the evaporator 5 will enter the slit. At the same time, the function of shrinking the elastic disk 37 is also conducive to the subsequent removal of the evaporator 5. Then the electromagnet 21 is closed. At this time, the second spring The magnetic plate 26 will be pulled to reset, and the first spring will also drive the push plate 22 to reset. When the magnetic plate 26 is reset, it will push the gas in the cavity 23 from the connecting pipe 24 into the elastic disk 37 to expand. At this time, the plug hole 34 will fit with the evaporator 5, so as to achieve the effect of sealing the evaporator 5. Then, water is added to the water replenishment tank 12. When the push plate 22 moves downward to push the water, the magnetic plate 26 is separated from the push plate 22 through the separation mechanism, so that when the push plate 22 moves downward, it does not drive the magnetic plate 26 to move downward, so as to prevent the elastic disk 37 from shrinking and affecting the sealing of the evaporator 5.
[0073] When the push plate 22 of the present invention moves downward to push the water, the water will enter the driving block 29 from the circular hole 31. Then, when the driving block 29 reaches the push block, the push plate 22 is aligned with the magnetic plate 26. At this time, the driving block 29 continues to move downward, and the water pressure will push the stopper 27, so that the stopper 27 blocks the magnetic plate 26. After that, when the push plate 22 moves to the position of the magnetic plate 26, because the magnetic plate 26 is limited by the stopper 27, the push plate 22 cannot drive the magnetic plate 26 to move downward. Until the top surface of the driving block 29 is separated from the stopper 27, the elastic member will drive the push block to reset. When no water is added to the water replenishment tank 12, when the push plate 22 is moving, there will be no water to push the push block. At this time, the magnetic plate 26 can be driven to move normally. Through the above mechanism, the connection state of the magnetic plate 26 and the push plate 22 can be controlled under different conditions.
[0074] In the present application, during the expansion of the elastic disk 37, the gas preferentially pushes the elastic sheet 32 to expand, so that the elastic sheet 32 fits with the evaporator 5, and then the circular hole 31 fits with the evaporator 5. The double sealing of the elastic sheet 32 and the circular hole 31 can improve the sealing effect of the evaporator 5. When the elastic sheet 32 fits with the evaporator 5, the scraper will rotate and be retracted into the groove 33. When the elastic disk 37 is deflated, the elastic sheet 32 will move away from the evaporator 5. At this time, the scraper 36 will contact the evaporator 5. Then, when the evaporator 5 is taken away, the scraper 36 will scrape off the water on the evaporator 5. When the evaporator 5 is in use, water will remain on the surface of the evaporator 5. The scraped water will enter the water storage tank 7 for continued use, thereby preventing unnecessary waste.
