Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of kelp centrifugal separation devices, and more particularly to a centrifugal separation device for kelp processing and a method for using the centrifugal separation device. Background Art

[0002] During the kelp processing process, centrifugal separation is a key step in removing moisture and impurities from the kelp surface. The existing centrifugal separation device uses the centrifugal force generated by high-speed rotation to throw moisture and impurities such as mud and sand on the kelp surface out of the dehydration holes. The kelp is placed in the rotating cylinder. When the cylinder rotates at high speed, moisture and impurities are discharged through the dehydration holes on the side wall. The dehydration efficiency is improved through physical separation, while the risk of spoilage in traditional drying is reduced.

[0003] However, during high-speed centrifugation, the kelp will stick to the inner wall of the cylinder due to centrifugal force, causing the dehydration holes to be blocked by the stacked and adhered kelp, thereby obstructing the water discharge channel and significantly reducing the dehydration efficiency. Existing technologies attempt to alleviate this problem by adjusting the speed gradient or adding a flexible lining, but flexible materials can only reduce the breakage rate of kelp and cannot solve the problem of dynamic blockage of the dehydration holes. In addition, fixed filters are prone to secondary pollution after impurities are deposited.

[0004] Therefore, unlike the centrifugal separation of fluffy materials, the core contradiction of kelp sticking to the dehydration holes lies in its physical properties and uncontrollable deformation under the action of centrifugal force. The existing solutions rely on a passive separation structure similar to a flexible buffer layer, but lack an active intervention mechanism. It is difficult to dynamically adjust the distribution of kelp in the cylinder during operation. When kelp continues to block the dehydration holes, it not only prolongs the dehydration time and increases energy consumption, but also causes subsequent uneven salinization or microbial growth due to local water residue. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a centrifugal separation device for kelp processing and a method of using the same, aiming to solve the above technical problems.

[0013] As a further solution of the present invention: the separation disk is movably sleeved on the intersection of the first cavity cylinder and the second cavity cylinder, and the outer edge of the separation disk is provided with a sealing ring, and the second cavity cylinder is separated into a centrifugal dehydration chamber of the centrifugal separation device by the sealing separation effect of the separation disk, and the side bottom of the second cavity cylinder is provided with a conduit for draining the liquid in the centrifugal dehydration chamber, and the separation and dehydration cylinder as a whole is a through-mouth cylindrical structure passing through the notched circular arc sleeve plate, and the high-pressure air pump is provided with a plurality of one-way jet holes in sequence from top to bottom on the end face of the center of the separation disk.

[0014] As a further solution of the present invention: the reserved circular opening is a semicircular opening structure as a whole, and an L-shaped hook plate is fixedly installed at the middle position of the inner wall of each reserved circular opening. The L-shaped hook plate is inserted as a whole into the separation and dehydration cylinder on the same side when the airbag sleeve is in a contracted state, and fits on the inner wall of the separation and dehydration cylinder. A semicircular gear sleeve is fixedly installed on the protruding end of the L-shaped hook plate.

[0015] As a further solution of the present invention: the notched arc sleeve is movably mounted on the upper surface of the separation plate as a whole, and a gear plate is fixedly mounted on the bottom of each notched arc sleeve through the separation plate, and a gear ring sleeve is movably mounted at the outer edge of the bottom of the separation plate, and a tooth opening corresponding to each side of the gear plate is provided on the inner ring of the gear ring sleeve, and a second electric servo telescopic rod is fixedly mounted on the outer edge of the gear ring sleeve, and sealing gaskets are fixedly mounted on both sides of the notched arc sleeve.

[0016] As a further solution of the present invention: two groups of descaling modules 180 degrees apart are fixedly installed on the side wall of the second cavity cylinder, and the descaling module includes a first servo motor fixedly installed on the side edge of the top of the second cavity cylinder, the output end of the first servo motor penetrates into the inner top, and a cylindrical cover with a slot is fixedly installed on the output end, and a sealing rubber coating that is tightly corresponding to the second cavity cylinder is provided on the outer side wall of the cylindrical cover with the slot, and a rectangular slot with the same length as the notch arc sleeve is opened on the side wall of the cylindrical cover with the slot.

[0017] As a further solution of the present invention: a first electric servo telescopic rod is fixedly installed inside the cylindrical cover with a slot, the output end of the first electric servo telescopic rod faces the rectangular slot end of the cylindrical cover with a slot, and an assembly plug-in plate is fixedly installed on the output end, a cleaning plate is fitted on the assembly plug-in plate, and a detection unit is fixedly installed on the side wall of the cylindrical cover with a slot at a position opposite to the rectangular slot.

[0018] A method for using a centrifugal separation device for kelp processing comprises the following steps:

[0019] S1: First, extend the second electric servo telescopic rod to fix the gear ring sleeve, start the second servo motor to drive the separation plate to rotate, driving all the notched arc sleeves to rotate until the notches face inward, and seal with the high-pressure air pump through the sealing gasket to form a dehydration cylinder;

[0020] S2: Then, the second electric servo telescopic rod is retracted, and the second servo motor is started to drive the separation disk to rotate at high speed to generate centrifugal force. At the same time, the water spray nozzles on the bowling ball-shaped axis rod are started to spray clean water radially to clean impurities on the surface of the kelp. The wastewater is thrown out through the separation and dehydration cylinder and discharged from the conduit at the bottom of the second cavity cylinder;

[0021] S3: Then, when the kelp is close to the inner wall of the dehydration cylinder, the high-pressure air pump is started. On the one hand, it intermittently blows air through the one-way air jet hole to disturb the kelp. On the other hand, it inflates the airbags on both sides of the notch back and forth through the air hose and U-shaped air pipe. The airbags expand and push outward, driving the outer cover to push the kelp away to both sides, exposing the separation dehydration cylinder and ensuring that the dehydration channel is unobstructed.

[0022] S4: Finally, remove the kelp and residue, spray clean water again and use the airbag sleeve to push out the cleaning residue, drain the waste water, extend the second electric servo telescopic rod to fix the gear ring sleeve, drive the separation plate to rotate and make the notched arc sleeve flip 180 degrees, rotate the notched cylindrical cover of the descaling module so that the notch is inward, extend the first electric servo telescopic rod to make the cleaning plate close to the outer cover for cleaning.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the above technical solution provided by the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0024] (1) This solution uses dynamic adjustment to repeatedly fill the air bag with gas during the centrifugal separation process, so that the air bag sleeve expands and pushes outward, dynamically pushing the kelp close to the inner wall of the dehydration cylinder outward, and solving the problem of continuous blockage of the dehydration hole. Compared with the passive solution relying on flexible lining or speed adjustment in the background technology, this active intervention mechanism can adjust the distribution state of the kelp in real time to avoid obstruction of the water discharge channel. During operation, the high-pressure air pump supplies air to the air bag sleeve through the air hose and U-shaped air pipe. The expansion of the air bag sleeve drives the outer cover to tilt and push out to both sides, exposing the separation dehydration cylinder, ensuring the smooth discharge of water and impurities, significantly improving the dehydration efficiency and shortening the processing time, while reducing the risk of microbial growth caused by local water residue.

[0025] (2) The separation effect is further optimized by combining the water spray at the axis end with the dynamic adjustment of the airbag. The water spray nozzle sprays clean water radially outward in the same direction as the centrifugal force, accelerating the separation of sewage and cleaning the impurities on the surface of the kelp. The water spray nozzle adopts a conical hole design to prevent the back-clogging of dirt, and can be adjusted to a tangential spray to form a rotating water flow to scrape the cylinder wall. The gear ring sleeve and gear disc system control the 180-degree flip of the notched arc sleeve to facilitate subsequent cleaning and maintenance. After flipping, the cleaning plate of the descaling module can be attached to the outer surface to thoroughly remove stubborn stains, avoiding the secondary pollution caused by the deposition of impurities in the fixed filter screen in the existing technology, and improving the cleanliness and long-term stability of the device.

[0026] (3) The integrated dynamic adjustment, spray cleaning and flipping mechanism improves the reliability and energy efficiency of kelp processing as a whole. The airbag sleeve also acts as a buffer layer during reciprocating ejection, protecting the integrity of the kelp and reducing damage. The descaling module isolates the internal structure in the non-working state, simplifying the maintenance process. Compared with the background technology, this design solves the problems of high dehydration energy consumption and uneven salinization. Through active intervention and system coordination, it reduces energy consumption and enhances adaptability to the physical properties of kelp, ensuring the environmental friendliness of the processing process and the consistency of product quality.

[0046] The following describes in detail a centrifugal separation device for kelp processing and its use method provided by the present invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It is also noted that, in order to make the embodiments more detailed, the following embodiments are best and preferred embodiments, and those skilled in the art may also adopt other alternative embodiments for some known technologies. Furthermore, the accompanying drawings are only for the purpose of describing the embodiments in more detail and are not intended to limit the present invention in any specific way.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a centrifugal separation device for kelp processing, comprising a first cavity cylinder 1, a second cavity cylinder 2 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the first cavity cylinder 1, a second servo motor 4 is fixedly mounted at the center position of the bottom circle of the first cavity cylinder 1, a separation disk 5 is fixedly mounted at the output end of the second servo motor 4, and a plurality of groups of dynamic adjustment mechanisms 6 are arranged in a circular shape at the outer edge position of the upper surface of the separation disk 5, and a dehydration cylinder is formed by the plurality of dynamic adjustment mechanisms 6;

[0048] The dynamic adjustment mechanism 6 includes a high-pressure air pump 61 and an air push unit 64 disposed at an adjacent end of the high-pressure air pump 61. The high-pressure air pump 61 is a fan-shaped arc plate structure of the same height as the air push unit 64. The air push unit 64 includes a notched arc sleeve 641. The surface of the notched arc sleeve 641 is provided with a notched groove 642 facing the center of the separating disk 5. A plurality of separation and dehydration cylinders 643 are fixedly installed in sequence from top to bottom at the middle position of the inner portion of the notched groove 642. Air bag sleeves 644 are fixedly installed at the inner two sides of the notched groove 642 respectively.

[0049] A high-pressure air pump 61 is used to reciprocally input gas into the air bag sleeves 644 on both sides of the separation and dehydration cylinder 643. The air bag sleeves 644 that are reciprocally expanded and expanded on both sides dynamically push and adjust the kelp attached to the inner wall of the dehydration cylinder.

[0050] In order to solve the problem of continuous dynamic blockage of the dehydration holes caused by kelp sticking to the cylinder wall during the existing centrifugal separation process, the above-mentioned technical solution is now adopted to solve the problem. The above-mentioned technical solution is mainly composed of a first cavity cylinder 1, a second cavity cylinder 2, a second servo motor 4, a separating disk 5, and a dynamic adjustment mechanism 6. The first cavity cylinder 1 and the second cavity cylinder 2 are connected up and down. The first cavity cylinder 1 serves as the driving cavity of the device, and is equipped with a second servo motor 4 inside, which is used to control the separating disk 5 at the intersection of the first cavity cylinder 1 and the second cavity cylinder 2 to rotate at high speed to generate centrifugal force for separation and dehydration.

[0051] The configured dynamic adjustment mechanism 6 is composed of a high-pressure air pump 61 and an air push unit 64 placed at the adjacent end of the high-pressure air pump 61. As shown in the drawings of the specification, the high-pressure air pump 61 and the adjacent air push units 64 form a pair, and the high-pressure air pump 61 and the adjacent air push units 64 form a dehydration cylinder through the pairing. The high-pressure air pump 61 is an air pump structure in the prior art that can stably provide high-pressure gas. During operation, it is used to generate a high-pressure air channel inside the dehydration cylinder to blow the internal kelp, and on the other hand, it is used to supply air to the air push units 64 at the adjacent ends. The configured air push unit 64 includes a notched arc sleeve 641 and a notched groove 642. Several separation dewatering cylinders 643, similar to drain outlets in the prior art, are installed within the notched groove 642. Airbag sleeves 644 are fixedly installed on either side of the notched groove 642. A high-pressure air pump 61 is used to supply air to the airbag sleeves 644 on either side, causing them to expand and unfold outward, dynamically pushing and adjusting the kelp attached to the inner wall of the dewatering cylinder. The configured airbag sleeves 644 are highly resilient, repositionable sleeve structures in the prior art. In their normal state, i.e., when not filled with air, they do not expand but rather are in a contracted state. In this state, the airbag sleeves 644 are contracted within the notched groove 642. Due to their high toughness, they do not wrinkle or accumulate during contraction, preventing them from becoming stuck on the outside of the notched groove 642 during contraction. This includes, but is not limited to, a polyurethane silicone rubber matrix.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the outer surface of the airbag cover 644 is fixedly installed with an outer cover cover 645, and the surface of the outer cover cover 645 is provided with a reserved circular opening 646 corresponding to the separation and dehydration cylinder 643; when the airbag cover 644 is in the contracted state, the outer cover cover 645 fits and covers the outer surface of the recessed arc cover 641, and the airbag cover 644 is simultaneously received in the interior of the recessed groove 642; when the airbag cover 644 is fully expanded, the outer cover cover 645 follows the deformation of the airbag cover 644 and is ejected outward, and the ejection angle is an angle inclined to both sides with the separation and dehydration cylinder 643 as the midpoint.

[0053] Among them, the airbag cover 644 is fully deployed, as shown in the attached manual. Figure 7 As shown, during the deployment process, the specific deployment state is that the airbag cover 644 will first expand outward in the initial inflation state, and then be pushed outward by the deformation of the airbag cover 644.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, an air hose 62 is fixedly installed on the top output end of the high-pressure air pump 61, and a U-shaped air pipe 6411 is fixedly installed on the top of the notched arc sleeve 641. The guide tubes on both sides of the U-shaped air pipe 6411 extend into the top of the notched groove 642 and are respectively connected to the air bag sleeves 644 on both sides of the notched groove 642. The protruding end of the air hose 62 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the U-shaped air pipe 6411 and communicates with the U-shaped air pipe 6411.

[0055] Among them, the gas hose 62 configured on the top output end of the high-pressure gas pump 61 is a high-toughness hose structure, and can rotate along with the subsequent rotation of the notched arc sleeve 641.

[0056] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, two receiving sleeves 649 are provided on the notched arc sleeve 641 at positions above and below the opening end of the notched groove 642, and a reset toughness pull rope 6410 is fixedly connected to the interior of the receiving sleeve 649, and the protruding end of the reset toughness pull rope 6410 is fixedly connected to the outer cover 645 facing the outside, and a bowling ball-shaped axis rod 7 is fixedly installed at the center position of the dividing plate 5, and a plurality of water nozzles 8 are arranged in a circular manner on the outer surface of the bowling ball-shaped axis rod 7.

[0057] Among them, the configured storage sleeve 649 is used to store the reset tough pull rope 6410, and the reset tough pull rope 6410 is a pull rope structure that can be reset and pulled in the existing technology. When the airbag sleeve 644 is in the contracted state, the configured reset tough pull rope 6410 will pull the outer cover 645 to reset stably. The bowling-shaped axis rod 7 configured at the center position of the dividing disk 5, as shown in the accompanying drawings, is a bowling-shaped axis rod structure as a whole. During operation, clean water can be injected into it through an external liquid supply hose and sprayed out through several water nozzles 8 on the outside. The surface from top to bottom is smooth and has no edges and corners, which reduces the risk of kelp fibers and impurities hanging on the wall, and the configured water nozzle 8 adopts a conical hole design with a larger hole inside and a smaller hole outside to further prevent dirt from backclogging. The direction of the spray water flow from the water nozzle 8 is consistent with the direction of the centrifugal force, and it is sprayed radially outward. At this time, the sewage separation can be accelerated. After the clean water penetrates the material, the sewage is thrown to the cylinder wall by the centrifugal force, that is, it is discharged from the separation and dehydration cylinder 643. If it is necessary to clean the residue on the cylinder wall, some of the spray holes can be adjusted to tangential spraying to form a rotating water flow to scrape the cylinder wall. This is a conventional controllable spray head technology in the existing technology.

[0058] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, the separation disk 5 is movably sleeved at the intersection of the first cavity tube 1 and the second cavity tube 2, and a sealing ring is provided at the outer edge of the separation disk 5. The second cavity tube 2 is separated into a centrifugal dehydration chamber of the centrifugal separation device by the sealing separation effect of the separation disk 5. The side bottom of the second cavity tube 2 is provided with a conduit for draining the liquid in the centrifugal dehydration chamber. The separation and dehydration tube 643 is a through-mouth cylindrical structure that passes through the notched arc sleeve 641. The high-pressure air pump 61 is provided with a plurality of one-way jet holes 63 in sequence from top to bottom on the end face of the center of the separation disk 5.

[0059] The sealing ring disposed on the outer edge of the separation disc 5 is used to seal the rotating end.

[0060] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the reserved circular opening 646 is a semicircular opening structure as a whole, and an L-shaped hook plate 647 is fixedly installed at the middle position of the inner wall of each reserved circular opening 646. The L-shaped hook plate 647 is inserted as a whole into the separation and dehydration cylinder 643 on the same side when the air bag sleeve 644 is in the contracted state, and fits on the inner wall of the separation and dehydration cylinder 643. A semicircular gear sleeve 648 is fixedly installed on the protruding end of the L-shaped hook plate 647.

[0061] Among them, the reserved circular opening 646 is a semicircular opening structure as a whole, and the L-shaped hook plate 647 is fixedly installed in the middle position of the inner wall of each reserved circular opening 646, similar to the position installed in the middle end of the C-shaped structure. The L-shape is used to prevent the hook plate from getting stuck on the side wall of the separation and dehydration cylinder 643 on the same side when inserted into the separation and dehydration cylinder 643 on the same side, and it is moved outward for a distance to ensure the stability of insertion. As mentioned above, the configured airbag sleeve 644 will first expand outward in the positive direction during the process of filling with gas, and then push outward with the deformation of the airbag sleeve 644. The first positive outward expansion is to ensure that the L-shaped hook plate 647 and the semicircular tooth sleeve 648 can be pulled out first and then tilted outward to ensure that the semicircular tooth sleeves 648 on both sides do not interfere with each other during the pulling process. The configured semicircular tooth sleeve 648 is shown in the accompanying drawings of the specification, similar to the spike rake structure in the prior art, which can pass through the separated water but can catch large impurity particles.

[0062] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the notched arc sleeve 641 is movably mounted on the upper surface of the separation plate 5 as a whole, and a gear plate 9 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of each notched arc sleeve 641 through the separation plate 5, and a gear ring sleeve 10 is movably mounted at the outer edge of the bottom of the separation plate 5. The inner ring of the gear ring sleeve 10 is provided with teeth corresponding to the side edges of each gear plate 9. A second electric servo telescopic rod 11 is fixedly mounted on the outer edge of the gear ring sleeve 10, and sealing gaskets 6412 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the notched arc sleeve 641.

[0063] Among them, the system composed of the configured gear plate 9 and the outer gear ring sleeve 10 is used to control the synchronous rotation of each notch arc sleeve 641 on the surface of the separation plate 5, flip the notch arc sleeve 641 180 degrees, and expand the internal separation working cavity outward.

[0064] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, two groups of descaling modules 3 180 degrees apart are fixedly installed on the side wall of the second cavity tube 2, and the descaling module 3 includes a first servo motor 35 fixedly installed on the top side of the second cavity tube 2, the output end of the first servo motor 35 penetrates the inner top, and a cylindrical cover 31 with a slot is fixedly installed on the output end, and a sealing rubber coating that is tightly fitted with the second cavity tube 2 is provided on the outer side wall of the cylindrical cover 31 with a slot, and a rectangular slot with the same length as the notch arc sleeve 641 is opened on the side wall of the cylindrical cover 31 with a slot.

[0065] Among them, the configured descaling module 3 is fixedly installed as a whole at a position 180 degrees apart on the side wall of the second cavity tube 2, and is rotated by the first servo motor 35. When the rectangular notch on the side wall of the notched cylindrical cover 31 faces the outside of the second cavity tube 2, the structure inside the notched cylindrical cover 31 does not participate in the work, and the dehydration and separation working end of the second cavity tube 2 is completely isolated. When the descaling module 3 participates in the work, the rectangular notch on the side wall of the notched cylindrical cover 31 faces the inside of the second cavity tube 2.

[0066] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, a first electric servo telescopic rod 32 is fixedly installed inside the notched cylindrical cover 31, and the output end of the first electric servo telescopic rod 32 faces the rectangular notch end of the notched cylindrical cover 31, and an assembly plug-in plate 33 is fixedly installed on the output end, and a cleaning plate 34 is fitted on the assembly plug-in plate 33. A detection unit 36 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the notched cylindrical cover 31 at a position opposite to the rectangular notch.

[0067] The detection unit 36 is an optical detection structure in the prior art, such as an infrared light detection probe in the prior art, which is used to detect the real-time dehydration condition inside the second cavity tube 2.

[0068] The specific adjustment steps of the dynamic adjustment mechanism 6 are:

[0069] First, the output end of the second electric servo telescopic rod 11 arranged on the outer edge of the gear ring sleeve 10 extends outward and tightly rests on the inner wall of the first cavity tube 1. At this time, the second servo motor 4 at the bottom of the first cavity tube 1 is turned on, and the separation disk 5 at the output end is controlled by the second servo motor 4 to perform servo rotation. During the rotation of the separation disk 5, the gear ring sleeve 10 is in a fixed state, and the gear disk 9 engaged by the gear ring sleeve 10 cannot rotate. Therefore, at this time, several notched arc sleeves 641 arranged on the upper surface of the separation disk 5 will rotate synchronously. By using this driving force, the notched grooves 642 of the notched arc sleeves 641 on each side are controlled to face the center end of the separation disk 5, and the sealing gaskets 6412 on both sides are used to seal and fit with the adjacent components to form a dehydration cylinder as a whole. At this time, the kelp to be separated and dehydrated is introduced into the interior of the dehydration cylinder composed of the dynamic adjustment mechanism 6 through the external conveyor belt.

[0070] Then, the output end of the second electric servo telescopic rod 11 is retracted inward to make the gear ring sleeve 10 and the separation disk 5 integrated. At this time, the protective cover is covered, the second servo motor 4 is turned on, and the separation disk 5 at the output end is controlled by the second servo motor 4 to rotate at high speed, so that the dehydration cylinder generates centrifugal force, and the generated centrifugal force is used to separate the kelp introduced inside. During the initial separation process, the water nozzle 8 on the outside of the bowling ball-shaped axis rod 7 is opened to spray clean water on the outside of the kelp to clean off impurities and particles on the outer surface of the kelp, and the sprayed sewage is guided away in real time.

[0071] Then, after being sprayed with clean water back and forth, the kelp enters the formal separation and dehydration process. It is thrown by centrifugal force onto the inner wall of the dehydration cylinder, that is, the inner wall composed of the notched arc sleeve 641 and the high-pressure air pump 61. At this time, the high-pressure air pump 61 controls the one-way jet hole 63 on the surface to reciprocate and spray the air channel, disrupting the adhesion of the internal kelp. At the same time, high-pressure gas is supplied to one end of the air hose 62, and enters the air bag sleeve 644 on both sides of the notch groove 642 through the U-shaped air pipe 6411. After the gas is injected into the airbag sleeve 644, it will deform, causing the airbag sleeves 644 on both sides to expand outward, driving the outer cover 645 on the outside to push out to both sides, similar to a pair of hands pushing the kelp to both sides at the separation and dehydration cylinder 643, that is, the position of the dehydration hole, to expose the separation and dehydration cylinder 643. The high-pressure air pump 61 is used to operate reciprocating inflation to make the outer cover 645 push out reciprocatingly to both sides, and dynamically adjust the position of the separation and dehydration cylinder 643 to ensure the stability of dehydration.

[0072] Finally, after the airbag sleeve 644 is reciprocatingly ejected to assist the second servo motor 4 in completing the dehydration work, the kelp and the mixture inside are transferred out through the scooping structure, and then clean water is sprayed out through the water nozzle 8 again, and the outer cover 645 that is reciprocally ejected is used again to guide the residual material clamped on the inside, and the inner cavity is cleaned synchronously, and the cleaning waste water is discharged. Then, the second electric servo telescopic rod 11 is used to clamp the gear ring sleeve 10, and cooperate with the second servo motor 4 to synchronously control each notch arc sleeve plate 641 to rotate again, so that each notch arc sleeve plate 641 rotates 180 degrees, The end face originally facing the center side of the separation plate 5, that is, the side of the outer cover 645, is rotated out. At this time, the first servo motor 35 controls the output end of the cylindrical cover 31 with a slot to rotate, so that the slot of the cylindrical cover 31 is rotated into the interior of the second cavity tube 2, and the first electric servo telescopic rod 32 is used to stick the cleaning plate 34 at the output end to the outer surface of the outer cover 645. The second servo motor 4 is used to control the separation plate 5 to rotate again. During the rotation, the cleaning plate 34 is stuck to its outer surface to thoroughly clean it, and the stubborn stains formed by the fermentation liquid and grease of the kelp during the separation process are cleaned.

[0073] The reciprocating, outward-pushing airbag cover 644 actually acts as a buffer layer during the rotational separation process, effectively ensuring the integrity of the kelp at the separation end. Furthermore, when not in operation, the notched cylindrical cover 31, controlled by the first servo motor 35, maintains its surface notches away from the interior of the second cavity cylinder 2. This allows the first electric servo telescopic rod 32, cleaning plate 34, and other structures stored within the notched cylindrical cover 31 to be unaffected by the separation fluid and to be directly accessible to the cleaning end without disassembly. Furthermore, when large impurities separated from the kelp separation process become clogged within the separation dewatering drum 643, each time the outer cover 645 is pushed outward, the semicircular toothed sleeve 648 on the inner side of the L-shaped hook plate 647 can be pulled out to remove them, further ensuring the stability of the drain outlet.

[0074] A method for using a centrifugal separation device for kelp processing comprises the following steps:

[0075] S1: First, extend the second electric servo telescopic rod 11 to fix the gear ring sleeve 10, start the second servo motor 4 to drive the separation plate 5 to rotate, causing all the notched arc sleeves 641 to rotate until the notches 642 face inward. The notched arc sleeves 641 are sealed with the high-pressure air pump 61 through the sealing gasket 6412 to form a dehydration cylinder.

[0076] S2: Then, the second electric servo telescopic rod 11 is retracted, and the second servo motor 4 is started to drive the separation plate 5 to rotate at high speed to generate centrifugal force. At the same time, the water nozzles 8 on the bowling ball-shaped axis rod 7 are started to spray clean water radially to clean impurities on the surface of the kelp. The wastewater is thrown out through the separation and dehydration cylinder 643 and discharged from the bottom conduit of the second cavity cylinder 2;

[0077] S3: Then, when the kelp is close to the inner wall of the dehydration cylinder, the high-pressure air pump 61 is started. On the one hand, it intermittently blows air through the one-way air jet hole 63 to disturb the kelp. On the other hand, it inflates the airbags 644 on both sides of the notch 642 back and forth through the air hose 62 and the U-shaped air pipe 6411. The airbags 644 expand and push outward, driving the outer cover 645 to push the kelp to both sides, exposing the separation and dehydration cylinder 643, ensuring that the dehydration channel is unobstructed.

[0078] S4: Finally, remove the kelp and residue, spray clean water again and cooperate with the airbag sleeve 644 to push out the cleaning residue, drain the waste water, extend the second electric servo telescopic rod 11 to fix the gear ring sleeve 10, drive the separation plate 5 to rotate so that the notched arc sleeve 641 flips 180 degrees, rotate the notched cylindrical cover 31 of the descaling module 3 so that the notch faces inward, extend the first electric servo telescopic rod 32 to make the cleaning plate 34 stick to the outer cover 645 for cleaning.
