Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of granular activated carbon production technology, and in particular to a conveying device for producing granular activated carbon for water treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Granular activated carbon is a black granular material refined from high-quality coconut shells, walnut shells, apricot shells, peach shells, coal, and other raw materials through a series of production processes. It boasts advantages such as a well-developed pore structure, large specific surface area, strong adsorption capacity, low bed resistance, stable chemical properties, and easy regeneration. Applications include water treatment: domestic water, industrial water, and pure water that have undergone artificial treatment. Granular activated carbon can remove dissolved organic matter, reduce UV absorption, and decrease total organic carbon (TOC), chemical oxygen demand, and chlorine content. It also has removal effects on color, iron, manganese, and phenols. In wastewater treatment: such as domestic sewage and industrial wastewater, granular activated carbon can treat industrial waste gas containing methylmercury, wastewater containing dichloroethane, and wastewater from oil refineries, petrochemical plants, chemical plants, printing and dyeing plants, electroplating plants, and paper mills, including oily wastewater, phenolic wastewater, organic wastewater, explosives chemical wastewater, and truck washing wastewater.

[0003] The production process of granular activated carbon mainly includes steps such as raw material selection, carbonization, activation, crushing, screening, and packaging. This includes screening high-quality coal, sawdust, fruit shells (such as coconut shells and walnut shells), and agricultural waste. The screened raw materials are then fed into a carbonization furnace for carbonization treatment. The carbonization temperature is typically between 350 and 600℃, depending on the type of raw material and the carbonization equipment. During carbonization, most of the non-carbon elements such as hydrogen and oxygen in the raw materials are released in gaseous form, forming a preliminary porous structure. The carbonized product is called carbonized material. Next, the carbonized raw material is activated, which is a crucial step in granular activated carbon production. The purpose is to further open and expand the pore structure in the carbonized material, improving its adsorption performance. Following this, the activated product is crushed by a crusher to obtain granular activated carbon of appropriate particle size. The crushed material is screened by a vibrating screen to separate activated carbon of different particle sizes to meet the needs of different application fields. Finally, the activated carbon of qualified particle size after screening is packaged. Common packaging methods include ton bags (such as 500kg / ton bag) and bags (such as 25kg / bag). The packaged activated carbon should be stored in a dry, ventilated and dark place to prevent moisture and deterioration.

[0004] Currently, granular activated carbon packaging typically employs conveyor systems to transport and package the crushed and screened activated carbon. However, existing conveyor systems, such as conventional conveyor belts or spiral conveyor drums with screw shafts, are limited to simple conveying. During this process, pretreatment operations such as cooling, isolating, and quantitatively conveying the granular activated carbon cannot be performed. This results in the granular activated carbon still being at a high temperature immediately after production, requiring cooling before packaging, thus impacting packaging efficiency. Furthermore, conveyor belt transport increases the contact area between the granular activated carbon and the external environment, reducing its adsorption capacity. Additionally, the current conveyor system cannot guarantee quantitative delivery of the granular activated carbon, requiring manual packaging to adhere to pre-set weights, further reducing packaging efficiency. The extended packaging time also leads to prolonged exposure of the granular activated carbon to the external environment, affecting its adsorption capacity and reducing its overall quality. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Based on this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a conveying device for the production of granular activated carbon for water treatment, so as to fundamentally solve the problems of the current conveying devices having a single conveying method, lacking pre-treatment operations for granular activated carbon, and reducing the efficiency of subsequent granular activated carbon packaging.

[0006] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a conveying device for producing granular activated carbon for water treatment includes a housing assembly, a cover plate disposed on the top of the housing assembly, a heat dissipation assembly at least partially embedded on both sides of the housing assembly, a conveying drive member embedded on the top of the housing assembly, and a conveying assembly connected to the conveying drive member.

[0007] The housing assembly includes at least two parallel conveyor frames, a feed trough communicating with one side of the two conveyor frames, and a discharge port communicating with the side of the two conveyor frames away from the feed trough. The top of the conveyor frame is provided with an assembly slot for accommodating the heat dissipation component. The conveying drive component is embedded in the top of the conveyor frame around the assembly slot. The cover plate overlaps between the two conveyor frames. A flipping auxiliary component is provided in the assembly slot near the discharge port to assist the conveying component in flipping. The bottom of the conveyor frame is provided with a thickened part. A lower conveying trough for communicating with the feed trough and the discharge port is provided between the thickened part and the assembly slot.

[0008] The conveying component is driven by the conveying drive to convey along a preset trajectory. The preset trajectory of the conveying component includes the conveying component opening upward and moving parallel to the cover plate to discharge excess granular activated carbon from the conveying component; the conveying component turning around the axial direction of the turning auxiliary component to tilt the granular activated carbon; and the conveying component opening at the lower conveying trough towards the direction close to the feed trough so that the conveying component completes the filling of internal granular activated carbon during the movement.

[0009] Furthermore, the top of the conveyor frame is provided with a set of receiving slots for accommodating the conveying drive component.

[0010] Furthermore, the receiving slot assembly includes a slide rail arranged around the assembly slot, and a motor slot that passes through the conveyor frame and communicates with the slide rail near the side of the feed slot, wherein the conveying assembly slides along the slide rail trajectory.

[0011] Furthermore, the flipping aid includes a fixed frame fixedly disposed in the assembly slot, and an auxiliary roller overlapping between two oppositely disposed fixed frames.

[0012] Furthermore, the heat dissipation assembly includes an assembly housing at least partially embedded in the assembly groove, a first motor fixedly disposed on the side of the assembly housing near the discharge port, a heat dissipation fan movably disposed in the assembly housing, and a transmission chain connecting the first motor and the plurality of heat dissipation fans in series.

[0013] Furthermore, the conveying drive includes a second motor at least partially embedded in the motor slot, a drive gear disposed at the output end of the second motor, and a drive chain wound around the slide rail and connected to the drive gear.

[0014] Furthermore, the conveying assembly includes a conveying hopper, a filter screen embedded in the conveying hopper, and a transmission component movably disposed on one side of the conveying hopper.

[0015] Furthermore, the transmission component includes a movable shaft fixedly connected to the conveying bucket, and a drive roller movably connected to the movable shaft, with both ends of the drive roller connected to the drive chain.

[0016] Compared with the prior art: The conveying device for producing granular activated carbon for water treatment in the above embodiments of the present invention drives the conveying assembly to convey along a preset trajectory via a conveying drive component. The preset trajectory of the conveying assembly includes the conveying assembly opening facing upwards and moving parallel to the cover plate to discharge excess granular activated carbon from the conveying assembly, always maintaining the granular activated carbon and the internal space of the conveying assembly in a saturated state. This operation achieves quantitative filling of granular activated carbon. The conveying assembly rotates around its axial direction at the flipping auxiliary component to tilt the granular activated carbon near the discharge port. Furthermore, the conveying assembly opens towards the feed trough at the lower conveying trough to facilitate the conveying... The conveying component completes the internal granular activated carbon filling during the process, realizing automatic material filling and eliminating the trouble of manual filling by operators. It also realizes quantitative filling and final material dumping and discharge operations, improving the efficiency of subsequent granular activated carbon packaging. Based on the above-mentioned conveying operation of granular activated carbon through the conveying component, the heat dissipation component can implement suction heat dissipation of granular activated carbon in the outer shell assembly through the assembly tank, which reduces the contact between activated carbon and ambient air to a certain extent, ensuring the adsorption quality of activated carbon. This solves the problem that the current conveying device has a single conveying method and lacks pre-treatment operation of granular activated carbon, which reduces the efficiency of subsequent granular activated carbon packaging.

The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 7The diagram shows a conveying device for producing granular activated carbon for water treatment according to an embodiment of the present invention. It includes a housing assembly 1, a cover plate 2 disposed on the top of the housing assembly 1, a heat dissipation assembly 3 at least partially embedded on both sides of the housing assembly 1, a conveying drive 4 embedded on the top of the housing assembly 1, and a conveying assembly 5 connected to the conveying drive 4. The housing assembly includes at least two parallel conveying frames 11, a feed trough 12 communicating with one side of the two conveying frames 11, and a discharge port 13 communicating with the side of the two conveying frames 11 away from the feed trough 12. The top of each conveying frame 11 has an assembly groove 15 for accommodating the heat dissipation assembly 3. The conveying drive 4 is embedded around the assembly groove 15 on the top of the conveying frame 11. The cover plate 2 overlaps between the two conveying frames 11. The assembly groove 15 is located near the discharge port 13. 3. A flipping auxiliary component is provided on one side to assist the flipping of the conveying component 5. A thickened part 110 is provided at the bottom of the conveying frame 11. A lower conveying trough 19 is provided between the thickened part 110 and the assembly groove 15 to connect the feed trough 12 and the discharge port 13. The conveying component 5 is driven by the conveying drive component 4 to convey along a preset trajectory. The preset trajectory of the conveying component 5 includes the conveying component 5 opening upward and moving parallel to the cover plate 2 to discharge excess granular activated carbon in the conveying component 5; the conveying component 5 flipping around its axial direction at the flipping auxiliary component to pour the granular activated carbon near the discharge port 13; and the conveying component 5 opening towards the feed trough 12 at the lower conveying trough 19 to complete the filling of internal granular activated carbon during the movement of the conveying component 5.

[0031] Furthermore, the top of the conveyor frame 11 is provided with a receiving groove assembly for accommodating the conveying drive component 4. The receiving groove assembly includes a slide rail 16 arranged around the assembly groove 15, and a motor groove 14 that passes through the conveyor frame 11 and communicates with the slide rail 16 near the feed groove 12. The conveying component 5 slides along the track of the slide rail 16. The flipping auxiliary component includes a fixed frame 17 fixedly arranged in the assembly groove 15, and an auxiliary roller 18 overlapping between two oppositely arranged fixed frames 17. The heat dissipation component 3 includes an assembly housing 31 at least partially embedded in the assembly groove 15, a first motor 32 fixedly arranged in the assembly housing 31 near the discharge port 13, a heat dissipation fan 34 movably arranged in the assembly housing 31, and a first motor 32 and multiple heat dissipation fans 34. The series transmission chain 33 and the conveying drive component 4 include a second motor 41 at least partially embedded in the motor slot 14, a drive gear 42 disposed at the output end of the second motor 41, and a drive chain 43 wound around the slide rail 16 and connected to the drive gear 42. The conveying assembly 5 includes a conveying bucket 51, a filter screen 52 embedded in the conveying bucket 51. It should be noted that the filter screen 52 is positioned opposite to the assembly slot 15. The transmission component is movably disposed on one side of the conveying bucket 51. The transmission component includes a movable shaft 53 fixedly connected to the conveying bucket 51 and a drive roller 54 movably connected to the movable shaft 53. The maximum angle of movement between the movable shaft 53 and the drive roller 54 is 90°. Both ends of the drive roller 54 are connected to the drive chain 43.

[0032] It should be noted that the outer shell assembly 1, together with the cover plate 2, forms a basic isolated space. The purpose of this is to minimize the contact between the granular activated carbon and the external environment during its transport within the outer shell assembly 1, thereby reducing the adsorption of pollutants present in the environment and ensuring, to a certain extent, the adsorption effect of the granular activated carbon and improving its adsorption quality.

[0033] In specific implementation, the operator can add the granulated activated carbon into the outer shell assembly 1 along the feed chute 12. In some optional embodiments, the feed chute 12 can be directly set at the discharge point of the granulation equipment, so that the feed chute 12 is connected to the discharge point of the granulation equipment, realizing direct conveying of the granulated activated carbon and improving the production efficiency of granulated activated carbon. Afterwards, the operator can control the conveying device for producing granulated activated carbon for water treatment to start through the controller. In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the controller can be set at any convenient position on the conveying device for producing granulated activated carbon for water treatment. The controller can be an MCU (Microcontroller Unit). The controller (microcontroller unit) chip controls the conveying device for producing granular activated carbon for water treatment. The controller and the conveying device are electrically connected, including wired and wireless connections. Wireless connections include, but are not limited to, Bluetooth, WiFi, IF radio frequency, and Zigbee. Wired connections include, but are not limited to, a USB cable connecting the conveying device and the controller. The controller first activates the conveying drive 4, which then drives the conveying assembly 5 along the slide rail 16. Specifically, the second motor 41 sequentially drives the drive gear 42 at its output end, and the drive chain 43 on the drive gear 42 moves along the slide rail 16. During this process, the drive chain 43 drives the drive roller 54, causing the entire conveying assembly 5 to follow the slide rail 16. It should be noted that transmission gears adapted to the drive chain 43 are mounted at both ends of the drive roller 54. During the following movement of the conveying assembly 5, as... Figure 6As shown, the conveying assembly 5 located at the bottom of the slide rail 16 is described first. Under the drive of the conveying drive 4, the conveying assembly 5 moves along the trajectory of the lower conveying trough 19. During this process, the opening of the conveying bucket 51 faces the direction of the feeding trough 12. It should be noted that the feeding trough 12 and the lower conveying trough 19 are connected. It can be understood that when the granular activated carbon enters the feeding trough 12, some of the granular activated carbon will be in the feeding trough 19. Therefore, in order to avoid material leakage in the lower conveying trough 19, during the movement of the conveying assembly 5 along the trajectory of the lower conveying trough 19, the conveying bucket 51 can act as a shovel to shovel and collect the granular activated carbon remaining in the lower conveying trough 19 towards the feeding trough 12. After that, the conveying assembly 5... The conveyor hopper 51 moves continuously along the track of slide rail 16 and flips and lifts at the leftmost position of the lower conveyor trough 19 near the feed trough 12. It should be noted that the leftmost position of the lower conveyor trough 19 adopts an arc design, and the space design fits the design of the conveyor assembly 5. With the angle limitation between the movable shaft 53 and the drive roller 54, the conveyor hopper 51 can fit the leftmost arc of the lower conveyor trough 19 during the lifting process, and scoop up the granular activated carbon accumulated at this position to realize material filling. The arc-shaped scooping effect allows the granular activated carbon to slide into the conveyor hopper 51 at a slope. While ensuring that the granular activated carbon fully fills the internal space of the conveyor hopper 51, it also ensures flexible contact between the conveyor hopper 51 and the granular activated carbon, reducing the impact on the granular activated carbon. The damage during the shoveling process further ensures the quality of the granular activated carbon. Then, based on the current granular characteristics of the activated carbon, after shoveling, it will form a "sandpile" at the top of the conveying hopper 51. Subsequently, the conveying hopper 51 rotates towards the cover plate 2 during continuous conveying until the opening of the conveying hopper 51 is in contact with the cover plate 2. During this process, excess activated carbon in the "sandpile" state at the top of the conveying hopper 51 can be scraped off, ensuring that the granular activated carbon and the internal space of the conveying hopper 51 are always saturated. This operation achieves quantitative filling of the granular activated carbon; it is understandable that the amount of granular activated carbon stored in each conveying hopper 51 is basically the same. Additionally, it should be noted that the scraped activated carbon will fall into the space of the lower conveying trough 19 to await subsequent loading. The remaining conveying bucket 51 scoops up and conveys the material again. Then, with the top opening of the conveying bucket 51 in contact with the cover plate 2, it continues to convey the material towards the discharge port 13 until the conveying bucket 51 comes into contact with the auxiliary roller 18. During the continuous transmission of the drive roller 54 along the slide rail 16, the conveying bucket 51 is axially rotated around the auxiliary roller 18 so that the opening of the conveying bucket 51 faces downward and finally the material is dumped at the discharge port 13, completing one conveying operation of granular activated carbon. In some optional embodiments of the present invention, in order to improve the subsequent packaging efficiency of granular activated carbon, the discharge port 13 can be connected to the packaging equipment so that each granular activated carbon discharged through the discharge port 13 can be directly loaded by the packaging equipment, thereby improving the production efficiency of granular activated carbon.

[0034] In addition, in some optional embodiments of the present invention, in order to make the storage space inside the conveying hopper 51 adjustable, a slot can be added to the inner wall of the conveying hopper 51. The operator can install partitions from bottom to top inside the conveying hopper 51 according to the conveying amount of granular activated carbon, and connect the partitions with the slots to complete the assembly. This allows the storage space inside the conveying hopper 51 to be limited by the partitions, so as to meet the conveying amount requirements of granular activated carbon and facilitate the use of the operator.

[0035] Furthermore, as the conveying component 5 slides along the track of the slide rail 16, the operator can activate the heat dissipation component 3 via the controller to dissipate heat from the granular activated carbon during the conveying process. Specifically, the first motor 32 is turned on, which sequentially drives the transmission chain 33 and drives multiple cooling fans 34 to rotate. The cooling fans 34 dissipate heat from the granular activated carbon between the conveying frames 11 through the assembly slot 15. It should be noted that the cooling method of the cooling fans 34 is suction cooling. In other words, it draws the heat of the granular activated carbon inside the conveying frame 11 to the outside to achieve the purpose of heat dissipation. The advantage of this is that it avoids the situation where, when the conveying frame 11 is cooled by blowing air, outside air is introduced into the conveying frame 11. Although the heat dissipation effect is achieved, the granular activated carbon will come into contact with a large amount of outside air, resulting in a decrease in the adsorption effect of the granular activated carbon. Furthermore, based on the design of the filter screen 52 on the conveying hopper 51 corresponding to the assembly groove 15, the filter screen 52 can be directly opposite the suction position of the cooling fan 34 during the conveying process of the conveying hopper 51. This allows for efficient heat dissipation of the granular activated carbon in the conveying hopper 51 through the filter screen 52. The cooling of the granular activated carbon ensures the structural stability of the activated carbon itself. Moreover, the suction cooling method used in this application also reduces the contact between the activated carbon and the ambient air to a certain extent, ensuring the adsorption quality of the activated carbon. It also saves time for the subsequent packaging of the granular activated carbon, that is, the packaging operation is carried out after the granular activated carbon has cooled down. In addition, in some optional embodiments of the present invention, in order to further improve the heat dissipation effect of the heat dissipation component 3, a condenser pipe or water cooling pipe can be added inside the outer shell assembly 1 to cooperate with the heat dissipation component 3 and improve the heat dissipation quality.

[0036] In summary, the conveying device for producing granular activated carbon for water treatment in the above embodiments of the present invention drives the conveying assembly 5 along a preset trajectory via the conveying drive 4. The preset trajectory of the conveying assembly 5 includes the conveying assembly 5 opening upwards and moving parallel to the cover plate 2 to discharge excess granular activated carbon from the conveying assembly 5, maintaining the granular activated carbon and the internal space of the conveying assembly 5 at a saturated state. This operation achieves quantitative filling of granular activated carbon. The conveying assembly 5 rotates around its axial direction at the flipping auxiliary component to tilt the granular activated carbon near the discharge port 13. The conveying assembly 5 also has an opening at the lower conveying trough 19 facing towards the feed trough 12. The conveying component 5 completes the internal granular activated carbon filling during the operation, realizing automatic material filling and eliminating the trouble of manual filling by operators. It also realizes quantitative filling and final material dumping and discharge operations, improving the efficiency of subsequent granular activated carbon packaging. Based on the above-mentioned conveying operation of granular activated carbon through the conveying component 5, the heat dissipation component 3 can perform suction heat dissipation on the granular activated carbon in the outer shell assembly 1 through the assembly groove 15, which reduces the contact between activated carbon and ambient air to a certain extent, ensuring the adsorption quality of activated carbon. This solves the problem that the current conveying device has a single conveying method and lacks pre-treatment operation of granular activated carbon, which reduces the efficiency of subsequent granular activated carbon packaging.
