Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of activated carbon preparation technology, and specifically relates to an activated carbon forming device. Background Technology

[0002] Activated carbon forming equipment is a key piece of equipment used to process activated carbon powder or fine particles into block, columnar, spherical, or honeycomb products with specific shapes, strengths, and adsorption properties through physical pressing or extrusion processes, after adding binders and additives. Early methods often used simple briquetting or extrusion devices, which resulted in low strength and damaged pore structure. In recent years, with in-depth research into binder systems and optimization of forming processes, advanced equipment such as screw extruders, hydraulic forming machines, roller granulators, rotary granulators, and honeycomb mold systems have been gradually applied to the activated carbon forming field, significantly improving the product's mechanical strength, specific surface area retention, and utilization efficiency.

[0003] Because activated carbon blocks extruded by general activated carbon forming equipment are relatively loose and have low density, while denser activated carbon blocks have good mechanical strength, adsorption performance, and ease of use, they play an important role in many industrial and environmental protection fields. To produce higher density activated carbon blocks, a honeycomb activated carbon preparation molding die, as described in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN117261337B, includes a pre-forming box and a honeycomb forming box. One side of the pre-forming box and the honeycomb forming box are fixed together by a connecting limiting block, and the other side is fixed together by a connecting stop block. An extrusion and pushing alternating component is provided between the pre-forming box and the honeycomb forming box. A pre-forming pushing and extrusion component is located inside the pre-forming box. A feeding cylinder is located on the upper wall of the pre-forming box. A honeycomb forming component is located on the upper part of the honeycomb forming box, and a demolding component is located on the lower side of the honeycomb forming box. This method utilizes three states of a cam assembly to pre-extract coal slime into predetermined coal slime blocks. These blocks are then filled into a honeycomb molding box, ultimately achieving honeycomb formation. This avoids problems such as voids within the honeycomb steel mold and damage to the honeycomb structure caused by adhesion between the mold and the coal slime. While existing technologies can produce relatively dense activated carbon blocks, they involve first extruding the activated carbon blocks and then using a honeycomb molding rod to penetrate them and form a honeycomb structure. However, this process carries a risk of some carbon blocks detaching under stress during penetration.

[0004] Based on this, an activated carbon forming device is proposed, which can produce relatively dense honeycomb activated carbon blocks while avoiding partial structural breakage under stress. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems in the prior art, the present invention provides an activated carbon forming device.

[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An activated carbon forming device of the present invention includes a shell, a honeycomb forming component, a feeding component, and a driving component. The honeycomb forming component, the feeding component, and the driving component are disposed within the shell. The honeycomb forming component includes a bottom honeycomb plate and an extrusion section. The extrusion section is connected to the driving component. A plurality of honeycomb forming rods extend from the bottom of the extrusion section. The plurality of honeycomb forming rods are slidably disposed in the honeycomb holes of the bottom honeycomb plate. A honeycomb forming cavity is formed between the extrusion section and the bottom honeycomb plate. The feeding component slides against the side of the extrusion section. The driving component drives the extrusion section to push the feeding component to move. The extrusion section and the feeding component alternately add material and extrude coal slime into the honeycomb forming cavity multiple times until activated carbon blocks are formed.

[0008] Furthermore, the feeding assembly includes a sector gear, a first transmission gear, and a feeding tube rotatably connected to the housing. One end of the feeding tube is provided with a toothed portion, and the other end is provided with a material tube portion. The smooth surface of the sector gear is inclined towards the inside of the housing. The toothed surface of the sector gear meshes with the first transmission gear. The first transmission gear meshes with the toothed portion of the feeding tube. The extrusion section presses down and pushes the sector gear to rotate, causing the material tube portion to turn from inside the housing to outside the housing and extruding the coal slime added by the feeding tube into the honeycomb molding cavity.

[0009] Furthermore, a torsion spring is provided between the sector gear and the housing, and the torsion spring is used to reset the sector gear.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a cylinder, which is disposed inside the housing, and the bottom honeycomb plate is connected to the movable end of the cylinder. The cylinder pushes the bottom honeycomb plate to move to the activated carbon block forming position and the conveying position, respectively.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a push plate, the rear end of which is provided with a push rod, which is horizontally slidably disposed inside the housing. After the cylinder pushes the activated carbon block to the conveying position, the push plate pushes the activated carbon block on the bottom honeycomb plate to the outside of the housing.

[0012] Furthermore, a discharge chamber is provided on the opposite side of the push plate, the discharge chamber is connected to the outside of the housing, and the push plate pushes the activated carbon block into the discharge chamber.

[0013] Furthermore, a drive rack is vertically arranged below the bottom honeycomb panel, and a transmission assembly is connected between the drive rack and the push rod. The cylinder drives the bottom honeycomb panel to descend and drives the push rod to extend through the transmission assembly.

[0014] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes a second transmission gear, a third transmission gear, and a double gear. The second transmission gear and the third transmission gear mesh, the third transmission gear meshes with the small gear on the double gear, and the large gear on the double gear meshes with the teeth on the push rod. The bottom honeycomb plate descends and drives the push plate to extend, and the bottom honeycomb plate rises and drives the push plate to retract.

[0015] Furthermore, the honeycomb forming rod and the bottom honeycomb plate are respectively connected to positive and negative power supplies, and the power supplies are connected to a control device. The drive assembly and the cylinder are both electrically connected to the control device. The energizing and de-energizing actions of the positive and negative terminals of the honeycomb forming rod and the bottom honeycomb plate are respectively controlled by the control device to instruct the drive assembly and the cylinder to operate.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes an indicator light, which is disposed outside the housing and electrically connected to the control device. The indicator light illuminates when the honeycomb molding rod and the bottom honeycomb plate are connected and the positive and negative terminals are energized, and turns off when the honeycomb molding rod and the bottom honeycomb plate are separated and the positive and negative terminals are de-energized.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0018] (1) When the driving component drives the extrusion section to rise, the side wall of the extrusion section separates from the feeding component. At this time, the feeding component extends from the side wall of the shell and adds coal slime into the honeycomb forming cavity. When the driving component drives the extrusion section to fall, the side wall of the extrusion section slides against the feeding component. At this time, the feeding component will retract into the side wall of the shell. At the same time, as the extrusion section falls, the extrusion section and several honeycomb forming rods extrude the coal slime into shape. The final shape of the activated carbon block is formed by the feeding component and the extrusion section repeatedly adding and extruding. Through multiple additions and multiple extrusions, the situation of cavities inside the activated carbon block caused by one-time extrusion molding can be avoided. Compared with the existing technology of first forming and then penetrating to form honeycomb activated carbon, honeycomb activated carbon blocks are formed by extrusion molding and simultaneous penetration by honeycomb forming rods. This can form activated carbon blocks with higher density and maintain the integrity of the activated carbon blocks during the molding process, without causing some structure of the activated carbon blocks to fall off.

[0019] (2) A drive rack is vertically installed below the bottom honeycomb panel. A transmission assembly is connected between the drive rack and the push rod. The transmission assembly includes a second transmission gear, a third transmission gear, and a double gear. The second and third transmission gears mesh, the third transmission gear meshes with the small gear on the double gear, and the large gear on the double gear meshes with the teeth on the push rod. The diameter of the third transmission gear is larger than the diameter of the large and small gears on the double gear, which can provide a larger transmission ratio. Therefore, if the drive rack moves a small distance, the push rod can move a large distance. When the bottom honeycomb panel descends, it will drive the drive rack to descend. After the drive rack descends to the position of the second transmission gear, it meshes with the second transmission gear. As the drive rack continues to descend, it will drive the second transmission gear to rotate clockwise. The second transmission gear will drive the third transmission gear to rotate counterclockwise. Then, the third transmission gear will drive the double gear to rotate clockwise. The double gear will then drive the push rod to push out and retract when the bottom honeycomb panel rises. By driving the rack and pinion to drive the transmission assembly, and then driving the push rod through the transmission assembly, the cylinder can be used to drive the push rod simultaneously, thus avoiding errors in the coordination between the two.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] To further illustrate the technical means and effects of the present invention in achieving its intended purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structures, features, and effects of the present invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, is provided.

[0027] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an activated carbon forming device of the present invention includes a shell 1, a honeycomb forming component, a feeding component, and a driving component. The honeycomb forming component, the feeding component, and the driving component are disposed inside the shell 1. The honeycomb forming component includes a bottom honeycomb plate 7 and an extrusion part 2. The extrusion part 2 is connected to the driving component. A plurality of honeycomb forming rods 6 extend from the bottom of the extrusion part 2. The plurality of honeycomb forming rods 6 are slidably disposed in the honeycomb holes on the bottom honeycomb plate 7 in a corresponding manner. A honeycomb forming cavity is formed between the extrusion part 2 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7. The feeding component slides against the side of the extrusion part 2. The driving component drives the extrusion part 2 to push the feeding component to move. The extrusion part 2 and the feeding component alternately add material and extrude coal slime into the honeycomb forming cavity multiple times until activated carbon blocks are formed.

[0028] Because activated carbon blocks extruded by conventional activated carbon forming equipment are relatively loose and have low density, while denser activated carbon blocks have good mechanical strength, adsorption performance, and ease of use, playing an important role in various industrial and environmental protection fields. Current technology involves first extruding the activated carbon blocks and then using a honeycomb forming rod 6 to penetrate the blocks and form a honeycomb structure. However, when the honeycomb forming rod 6 penetrates the activated carbon blocks, there is a probability that some carbon block structures will detach under stress.

[0029] Therefore, in order to avoid the problem of forming activated carbon blocks first and then penetrating the activated carbon blocks to form honeycomb activated carbon in the prior art, in this embodiment, while the coal slime added into the shell 1 is squeezed by the extrusion section 2, the honeycomb forming rod 6 simultaneously penetrates the activated carbon block to form honeycomb activated carbon, so that honeycomb activated carbon blocks with higher density and tighter structure can be produced.

[0030] Specifically, the feeding component is located inside the side wall of the housing 1. When the driving component drives the extrusion section 2 to rise, the side wall of the extrusion section 2 separates from the feeding component. At this time, the feeding component extends from the side wall of the housing 1 and adds coal slime into the honeycomb forming cavity. When the driving component drives the extrusion section 2 to descend, the side wall of the extrusion section 2 slides against the feeding component. At this time, the feeding component retracts into the side wall of the housing 1. Simultaneously, as the extrusion section 2 descends, the extrusion section 2 and several honeycomb forming rods 6 extrude the coal slime into shape. The final formation of the activated carbon block is achieved through repeated feeding and extrusion by the feeding component and the extrusion section 2. Through multiple feeding and extrusion, the occurrence of cavities inside the activated carbon block caused by one-time extrusion forming can be avoided. In this embodiment, the driving component can be driven by a cylinder 10, a hydraulic cylinder, or a motor. The extrusion section 2 is raised and lowered by a cylinder 10, a hydraulic cylinder, or a motor. This structure is prior art and is not shown in the accompanying drawings. Compared to the existing technology of first forming and then penetrating to form honeycomb activated carbon, the honeycomb activated carbon block is formed simultaneously by extrusion molding and honeycomb molding rod 6. This method can form a high-density activated carbon block and maintain the integrity of the activated carbon block during the molding process, without causing part of the activated carbon block to fall off.

[0031] In order to enable the feeding assembly to feed material into the honeycomb forming cavity when separated from the extrusion part 2, and to retract into the side wall of the housing 1 when squeezed and pushed by the extrusion part 2, in one embodiment, the feeding assembly includes a sector gear 3, a first transmission gear 4 and a feeding tube 5 rotatably connected to the housing 1. One end of the feeding tube 5 is provided with a toothed part and the other end is provided with a material tube part. The smooth surface of the sector gear 3 is inclined towards the inside of the housing 1. The toothed surface of the sector gear 3 meshes with the first transmission gear 4. The first transmission gear 4 meshes with the toothed part of the feeding tube 5. The extrusion part 2 presses down and pushes the sector gear 3 to rotate, so that the material tube part turns from the inside of the housing 1 to the outside of the housing 1 and squeezes the coal slime added to the honeycomb forming cavity by the feeding tube 5.

[0032] The toothed portion of the feeding tube 5 is circular and has an internal cavity. A feeding device is connected to one side of the pivot of the toothed portion for feeding material into the honeycomb forming cavity through the feeding tube 5. The toothed portion is connected to the material tube portion, and the circumferential surface of the toothed portion is provided with teeth for meshing with the first transmission gear 4. When the extrusion section 2 rises, the smooth surface of the sector gear 3 is tilted upward towards the inside of the housing 1, and the feeding tube 5 extends into the honeycomb forming cavity to feed material. After the extrusion section 2 gradually descends, as the side wall of the extrusion section 2 abuts against the smooth surface of the sector gear 3, the part of the sector gear 3 protruding from the inside of the housing 1 is squeezed and rotated back to the inner wall of the housing 1. When the sector gear 3 retracts, it rotates counterclockwise, driving the first transmission gear 4 to rotate clockwise, and then driving the toothed portion of the feeding tube 5 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the feeding tube 5 can rotate from inside the housing 1 to the inner wall of the housing 1. To ensure uniform material filling in all parts of the honeycomb molding cavity, multiple material filling components can be installed around the inside of the housing 1 and material can be added simultaneously.

[0033] Because the honeycomb activated carbon forming process requires multiple extrusions and multiple feedings, the extrusion section 2 will separate and abut with the sector gear 3 multiple times. In order to enable the sector gear 3 to reset when the extrusion section 2 rises after completing one extrusion molding, in one embodiment, a torsion spring is provided between the sector gear 3 and the housing 1. The torsion spring is used to reset the sector gear 3. The torsion spring keeps the sector gear 3 in an inclined state towards the inside and upward of the housing 1 without external force. After being squeezed and pushed by the extrusion section 2, the torsion spring is in a stored state. After the extrusion section 2 rises and separates from the sector gear 3, the torsion spring releases its elasticity to reset the sector gear 3.

[0034] Furthermore, it also includes a cylinder 10, which is disposed inside the housing 1. The bottom honeycomb plate 7 is connected to the movable end of the cylinder 10. The cylinder 10 pushes the bottom honeycomb plate 7 to move to the activated carbon block forming position and the conveying position respectively. The cylinder 10 controls the lifting and lowering of the bottom honeycomb plate 7. When the honeycomb activated carbon block is formed by the extrusion part 2, the cylinder 10 needs to push the bottom honeycomb plate 7 to the position of the honeycomb forming cavity. After multiple extrusions and multiple feedings by the extrusion part 2 and the feeding pipe 5, and after forming, the extrusion part 2 rises first and the honeycomb forming rod 6 separates from the activated carbon block. Then, the cylinder 10 drives the bottom honeycomb plate 7 and the honeycomb activated carbon on the bottom honeycomb plate 7 to descend to the conveying position, so that the activated carbon block can be removed from the housing 1.

[0035] In the above embodiments, after the activated carbon block is formed and transported to the conveying position by the cylinder 10, it needs to be removed manually, which takes a long time. This results in the activated carbon block not being removed quickly, hindering the extrusion and forming speed of the next activated carbon block. In order to reduce manual operation and improve work efficiency, in one embodiment, a push plate 11 is also included. The push plate 11 has a push rod 12 at its rear end. The push rod 12 is horizontally slidably disposed in the housing 1. After the cylinder 10 pushes the activated carbon block to the conveying position, the push plate 11 pushes the activated carbon block on the bottom honeycomb plate 7 to the outside of the housing 1. After the bottom honeycomb plate 7 transports the activated carbon block to the conveying position, the push rod 12 is extended manually or by equipment, and the push plate 11 at the end of the push rod 12 pushes the activated carbon block to the outside of the housing 1.

[0036] In one embodiment, a discharge chamber 9 is provided on the opposite side of the push plate 11. The discharge chamber 9 is connected to the outside of the housing 1, and the push plate 11 pushes the activated carbon block into the discharge chamber 9.

[0037] Since using other driving devices to drive the push rod 12 requires more precise control over the movement of the bottom honeycomb panel 7, the movement of the cylinder 10 driving the bottom honeycomb panel 7 must coordinate with the movement of the push rod 12. However, multiple different driving devices may cause coordination errors, which could easily lead to the device getting stuck. To avoid this risk, in one embodiment, a drive rack is vertically arranged below the bottom honeycomb panel 7. A transmission assembly is connected between the drive rack and the push rod 12. The cylinder 10 drives the bottom honeycomb panel 7 to descend and drives the push rod 12 to extend through the transmission assembly. The drive rack drives the transmission assembly, which in turn drives the push rod 12. Thus, the cylinder 10 can drive the push rod 12 simultaneously, preventing coordination errors between the two.

[0038] Specifically, the transmission assembly includes a second transmission gear 13, a third transmission gear 14, and a double gear 15. The second transmission gear 13 and the third transmission gear 14 mesh, the third transmission gear 14 meshes with the small gear on the double gear 15, the large gear on the double gear 15 meshes with the teeth on the push rod 12, the bottom honeycomb plate 7 descends and drives the push plate 11 to extend, and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 rises and drives the push plate 11 to retract.

[0039] The diameter of the third transmission gear 14 is larger than the diameters of the large and small gears on the double gear 15, providing a larger transmission ratio. Thus, a small movement of the drive rack can cause the push rod 12 to move a large distance. When the bottom honeycomb plate 7 descends, it drives the drive rack to descend as well. After the drive rack descends to the position of the second transmission gear 13, it meshes with the second transmission gear 13. As the drive rack continues to descend, it drives the second transmission gear 13 to rotate clockwise. The second transmission gear 13 then drives the third transmission gear 14 to rotate counterclockwise. The third transmission gear 14 then drives the double gear 15 to rotate clockwise, which in turn drives the push rod 12 to extend. When the bottom honeycomb plate 7 rises, the push rod 12 retracts.

[0040] Since the formation of activated carbon blocks requires multiple extrusions by the extrusion section 2, and after the activated carbon blocks are extruded and the extrusion section 2 rises and stops extruding, the cylinder 10 needs to be lowered to transport the formed activated carbon blocks to the outside of the housing 1. In order to coordinate the action of the extrusion section 2 and the action of the cylinder 10, in one embodiment, the honeycomb forming rod 6 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 are respectively connected to positive and negative power supplies. The power supply is connected to a control device. The drive assembly and the cylinder 10 are electrically connected to the control device. The positive and negative poles on the honeycomb forming rod 6 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 are energized and de-energized, respectively, by the control device commanding the drive assembly and the cylinder 10 to act.

[0041] During the complete cycle of extruding an activated carbon block, the extrusion section 2 has several honeycomb forming rods 6 at the bottom that are always slidably disposed in the honeycomb holes of the bottom honeycomb plate 7. Only after the activated carbon block is formed will the extrusion section 2 rise to a higher position and separate from the bottom honeycomb plate 7. Therefore, when the honeycomb forming rods 6 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 are respectively connected to positive and negative power supplies, and the power supplies are electrically connected to the control device, the circuits of the honeycomb forming rods 6 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 are connected in parallel with the circuits of the control device and the power supply. Then the control device can determine whether the activated carbon block has been formed based on whether the circuits of the honeycomb forming rods 6 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 are energized. Specifically, the drive assembly connected to the extrusion section 2 can be electrically connected to the control device to command the number of extrusions. After the number of extrusions is reached, the drive assembly will drive the extrusion section 2 to rise. When the extrusion section 2 rises and the honeycomb forming rod 6 is completely separated from the bottom honeycomb plate 7, the circuit will be disconnected. After receiving the signal, the control device will command the cylinder 10 to retract. The action of the cylinder 10 driving the bottom honeycomb plate 7 to retract will drive the push rod 12 to push the activated carbon block from the bottom honeycomb plate 7 to the discharge chamber 9. Finally, when the cylinder 10 reaches the bottom, it will start to reset upward. At the same time, the drive assembly will drive the extrusion section 2 to move downward until the honeycomb forming rod 6 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 below the extrusion section 2 are reconnected.

[0042] It is worth mentioning that, since the number of operations of the extrusion section 2 controlled by the control device may be unstable due to the unstable feeding amount from the feeding pipe 5, in order to avoid deviations in the volume and weight of the activated carbon blocks, a ball bearing is installed on the side wall of the housing 1. A spring and a pressure sensor are installed between the ball bearing and the side wall of the housing 1. The pressure sensor is electrically connected to the control device. The ball bearing protrudes from the inner wall of the housing 1. A groove is opened on the side wall of the extrusion section 2 to slide against the ball bearing. The groove has a structure that is narrow at the bottom and wide at the top. With each downward extrusion action of the extrusion section 2, the coal slime in the honeycomb forming cavity gradually increases, causing the height of the extrusion section 2 to gradually rise after each extrusion. The pressure on the pressure sensor will gradually increase until the pressure value reaches the set value in the control device. This indicates that the volume of the activated carbon block in the honeycomb forming cavity has reached the standard, and the forming of the activated carbon block can be completed. Furthermore, the sliding contact between the ball bearing and the groove can prevent the extrusion section 2 from deflecting, improving the stability of the equipment operation.

[0043] To enable on-site personnel to easily observe the working status inside the housing 1, in one embodiment, an indicator light 8 is also included. The indicator light 8 is located outside the housing 1 and electrically connected to the control device. It lights up when the honeycomb forming rod 6 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 are connected and the positive and negative poles are energized, and turns off when the honeycomb forming rod 6 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 are separated and the positive and negative poles are de-energized. By observing the status of the indicator light 8, it can be determined whether the activated carbon block inside the housing 1 has been formed.

[0044] Working principle: The control device commands the drive assembly and cylinder 10 to push the extrusion section 2 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7 to a position where they slide together, forming a honeycomb forming cavity between them. After they come into contact, the control device commands the feeding pipe 5 and its connected feeding device to add coal slurry into the honeycomb forming cavity. As the extrusion section 2 continues to move downward, the side wall of the extrusion section 2 will drive the sector gear 3 to rotate and drive the feeding pipe 5 to stop feeding and retract into the side wall of the shell 1. Then the extrusion section 2 moves downward to extrude the coal slurry. After completing one extrusion action, it moves upward to reset and repeats the feeding and extrusion action until the activated carbon block is formed. After the number of extrusions is reached, the drive assembly drives the extrusion section 2 to rise and separate the honeycomb forming rod 6 from the bottom honeycomb plate 7 and disconnect the circuit. After receiving the signal, the control device commands the cylinder 10 to retract downward and drives the push rod 12 through the drive rack to push the activated carbon block on the bottom honeycomb plate 7 to the discharge cavity 9. After completing the above actions, the control device commands the drive assembly and cylinder 10 to reset the extrusion section 2 and the bottom honeycomb plate 7.

Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention.
