Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ultrasonic vibration plates, and in particular to an industrial-grade ultrasonic device with a liquid cooling function. Background Art
[0002] Hydrometallurgy is to contact ore, concentrate or other raw materials with aqueous solution or other liquids, transfer the useful metals in the raw materials into liquid phase through chemical reaction, separate and enrich the useful metals in the liquid phase, and finally recover them in the form of metals or other compounds. Ultrasonic enhanced reaction pools are required in the metallurgical process.
[0003] The role of ultrasound in hydrometallurgical reaction systems is mainly based on the mechanical vibration and cavitation effect it produces. When ultrasound passes through a liquid medium, a series of tiny bubbles are formed, which grow and burst rapidly under the action of ultrasound, generating instantaneous high temperature, high pressure and strong shock waves. These extreme conditions can accelerate the process of chemical reactions and improve reaction rates and efficiency.
[0004] The specific method is: an ultrasonic vibration plate device is set in the reaction tank to act on the reaction solution with ultrasonic waves. However, the temperature of the reaction solution is generally 60-90°C, and the vibrator in the ultrasonic vibration plate device is prone to heat up, resulting in a shortened service life. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an industrial-grade ultrasonic device with a liquid cooling function.
[0006] The objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions: An industrial-grade ultrasonic device with a liquid cooling function comprises a plate body with an installation cavity, a plurality of vibrators are arranged side by side in the installation cavity, a cooling pipe is arranged on the plate body, the cooling pipe is connected to a cold source, a liquid guide is arranged outside the vibrator, the liquid guide is connected to the cooling pipe to drive the coolant to flow through the vibrator.
[0007] Preferably, the liquid guiding member comprises a liquid guiding ring tube.
[0008] Preferably, the vibrators are arranged in at least two rows, and the corresponding liquid-conducting ring tubes in adjacent rows are connected through a pipeline.
[0009] Preferably, the liquid guiding member comprises a liquid guiding sleeve, and a liquid inlet pipe and a liquid outlet pipe are connected between the liquid guiding sleeve and the cooling pipe.

[0015] Preferably, the plate body is located at the bottom of the vibrator and is configured with a mounting groove, the vibrator seals the mounting groove, a pressure ring is elastically arranged in the axial direction in the liquid guiding sleeve, and in a natural state, a water flow gap is provided between the pressure ring and the vibrator, a first inclined surface is provided on the outer side of the pressure ring, the plate body and the liquid guiding sleeve cooperate to form a flow channel, one end of the flow channel is connected to the mounting groove, and the other end of the flow channel opens at the side wall of the liquid guiding sleeve, a pressure rod is elastically adapted in the opening, and a second inclined surface is provided on the end of the pressure rod; when water enters the mounting groove and the flow channel, the pressure rod is pushed out and drives the pressure ring downward with the cooperation of the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface, and the water flow gap is eliminated at this time.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The cooling liquid in the cooling pipe is cooled by a cold source, and the cooling liquid is filled into the liquid guide, thereby flowing through the vibrator to achieve a more adequate cooling of the vibrator.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an industrial ultrasonic device with liquid cooling function includes a plate body 2 with a mounting cavity 1. Similar to the prior art, a plurality of vibrators 3 are arranged side by side in the mounting cavity 1. Figure 1 , Figure 3 The example in which two rows of vibrators 3 are arranged is preferably shown. A large number of vibrators 3 act on the reaction solution with ultrasonic waves of sufficient power.
[0022] Continue to see Figure 1 , Figure 3 , a cooling tube 4 is provided on the plate body 2, for example, the cooling tube 4 may be U-shaped, and the two rows of vibrators 3 are located in the cooling tube 4, or the cooling tube 4 surrounds the outer peripheral side of the two rows of vibrators 3. Therefore, the cooling tube 4 may be filled with a coolant, and the installation cavity 1 is cooled by the coolant, thereby reducing the heating condition of the vibrator 3. The cooling tube 4 may also be preferably adapted to be connected with a cold source 5, for example, the cold source 5 may be a circulating cooling tank, which is a prior art and is therefore not described in detail in the present invention. In short, a refrigeration component may be provided in the cooling tank, and the coolant may be cooled by the refrigeration component. At the same time, a circulating pump may also be provided to realize the circulation of the coolant in the cooling tube 4, and finally achieve a better heat dissipation effect of the vibrator 3.
[0023] In some embodiments, a liquid guide 6 is further disposed outside the vibrator 3, and the liquid guide 6 has at least a chamber for liquid to flow into, so the liquid guide 6 can be connected to the cooling tube 4, and the coolant can enter the liquid guide 6 and flow through the vibrator 3. In other words, the coolant is closer to the vibrator 3, the coolant can carry away more heat, and the vibrator 3 is less likely to overheat.
[0024] For example, the liquid guide member 6 may include a liquid guide ring tube 7, the vibrator 3 is sleeved in the liquid guide ring tube 7, and the coolant has a flow path surrounding the entire vibrator 3. In a more preferred example, the corresponding liquid guide ring tubes 7 in adjacent arrangements are connected through pipes. That is, the liquid guide ring tubes 7 in the same row are interconnected, and the coolant can also flow into the central parts of several vibrators 3, so that the heat distribution in the installation cavity 1 is more uniform.
[0025] As another solution, the liquid guide member 6 includes a liquid guide sleeve 8, and a liquid inlet pipe 9 and a liquid outlet pipe 10 are connected between the liquid guide sleeve 8 and the cooling tube 4. It can be understood that the coolant can flow into the liquid guide sleeve 8 via the liquid inlet pipe 9 and directly contact the vibrator 3, so that the vibrator 3 can obtain a better heat dissipation effect. It can be seen here that the wording "flowing through the vibrator 3" means that the flow path of the coolant is on the peripheral side of the vibrator 3, and it can be in direct contact with the vibrator 3, or it may not be in contact with the vibrator 3 like the liquid guide ring tube 7. The coolant flowing into the liquid guide sleeve 8 will be re-exported to the cooling tube 4 via the liquid outlet pipe 10 to achieve circulating cooling.
[0026] In a preferred example, the outer diameter of the vibrator 3 is matched with the inner diameter of the liquid guide sleeve 8, and the liquid guide sleeve 8 plays a role of limiting and reinforcing the vibrator 3 in the circumferential direction. Of course, the vibrator 3 and the liquid guide sleeve 8 can be fixed to the plate body 2 by bolts (not shown) as in the prior art. However, it is inevitable that during the long-term operation of the vibrator 3, the above-mentioned bolts are prone to loosening due to vibration, resulting in the vibrator 3 falling off, and the vibrator 3 that falls off and moves randomly will cause damage to other vibrators 3.
[0027] In the present invention, the plate body 2 is provided with a mounting groove 11 at the bottom of the vibrator 3, and the size of the vibrator 3 is larger than the mounting groove 11, so that the mounting groove 11 is sealed in the normal installation state of the vibrator 3. In addition, a pressure ring 12 is elastically arranged in the axial direction in the liquid guide sleeve 8, and in the natural state, there is a water gap 13 between the pressure ring 12 and the vibrator 3, thereby allowing the coolant to pass through the water gap 13 to wrap the vibrator 3 to achieve the best heat dissipation effect.
[0028] The plate body 2 and the liquid guide sleeve 8 are both provided with a flow channel 15, and the two flow channels 15 are connected to form one flow channel 15. One end of the flow channel 15 is connected to the mounting groove 11, and the other end is opened at the side wall of the liquid guide sleeve 8. In more detail, a pressure rod 16 is elastically adapted in the opening, and the pressure rod 16 is opposite to the pressure ring 12, and a first inclined surface 14 is provided on the outer side of the pressure ring 12, and a second inclined surface 17 is correspondingly provided at the end of the pressure rod 16. The first inclined surface 14 and the second inclined surface 17 can refer to the wedge surface structure in the prior art. The pushing direction of the wedge surface structure (i.e., the inclined adaptation direction of the two inclined surfaces) should be known to those skilled in the art and will not be repeated. It only needs to meet the following movement process of the pressure ring 12.
[0029] When the bolts are loosened, the vibrator 3 is no longer tightly fitted to the bottom surface of the plate body 2, and water will enter the installation groove 11 until it flows into the flow channel 15. The pressure rod 16 will be pushed out by the water flow, and then the first inclined surface 14 and the second inclined surface 17 will cooperate to drive the pressure ring 12 to press down. At this time, the water gap 13 disappears, and then water will continue to fill into the liquid guide sleeve 8. Under the action of water pressure, the pressure ring 12 will act on the vibrator 3 to resist downward, so that the vibrator 3 is not easy to fall out.
[0030] For example, a moisture sensor (not shown) may be provided in the flow channel 15 so that the operator can know the looseness of the vibrator 3 in time and perform maintenance.
[0031] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the form disclosed herein, and should not be regarded as excluding other embodiments, but can be used in various other combinations, modifications and environments, and can be modified within the scope of the concept described herein through the above teachings or the technology or knowledge of the relevant field. The changes and modifications made by those skilled in the art shall not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and shall be within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the present invention.
