DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are simplified schematic diagrams that illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, and thus only show components related to the present invention.
[0017] like Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of the present invention, a floating filter type pneumatic water floating oil extraction pump, including a housing 1, a drive unit 2, an oil pumping unit 3 and a water pumping unit 4, the center of the housing 1 is provided with a receiving cavity 11, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, a floating chamber 14 is provided in the housing 1 for providing buoyancy for the floating oil extraction pump. The floating chamber 14 is filled with gas. The top surface of the housing 1 is placed in the floating oil layer on the surface of the water body. The accommodating chamber 11 is used to accommodate the water-oil mixture entering the top surface of the housing 1. like Figure 2 、 3 As shown, the oil pumping unit 3 is fixedly connected to the shell 1, and the oil pumping unit 3 is located at the upper part of the accommodating chamber 11, the water pumping unit 4 is fixedly connected to the shell 1, and the water pumping unit 4 is located at the lower part of the accommodating chamber 11, and the output end of the driving unit 2 is transmission-connected to the oil pumping unit 3 and the water pumping unit 4, and the driving unit 2 is used to synchronously provide power for the oil pumping unit 3 to pump out the oil in the accommodating chamber 11 and the water pumping unit 4 to pump out the water in the accommodating chamber 11. Through the design of the accommodating chamber 11, a high-thickness oil-enriched area is naturally formed by utilizing the density difference between oil and water, that is, the oil-water ratio in the accommodating chamber 11 of the shell 1 is higher than that in the outside, thereby realizing the preliminary separation of oil and water and reducing the subsequent processing cost. By linking the oil pumping unit and the water pumping unit through the driving unit, the synchronous operation of pumping up the oil in the accommodating chamber and discharging the water is realized, which greatly improves the separation efficiency and avoids the energy loss caused by traditional secondary treatment.
[0018] like Figure 2 、 3As shown, the drive unit 2 includes a drive member 21, a piston rod 22, a piston 23 and a cylinder body 24. The cylinder body 24 is fixedly connected to the housing 1, the cylinder body 24 is arranged in the accommodating chamber 11, and the piston 23 is slidably arranged in the cylinder body 24. The output end of the drive member 21 is fixedly connected to the head end of the piston rod 22, and the tail end of the piston rod 22 passes through the oil pumping unit 3 and is fixedly connected to the piston 23. The piston 23 divides the inner cavity of the cylinder body 24 into an upper cavity 241 and a lower cavity 242. The upper cavity 241 is connected to the oil pumping unit 3, and the lower cavity 242 is connected to the water pumping unit 4 is connected, the driving member 21 can be a cylinder, and the further driving member can be replaced by a telescopic power element such as a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod. When the piston 23 reciprocates in the cylinder body 24, the single driving member 21 synchronously controls the upper cavity 241 to absorb oil and the lower cavity 242 to drain water. The air pressure difference drives the valve to open and close automatically, without the need for additional energy, and has strong energy saving performance. The reciprocating motion of the piston 23 automatically generates an air pressure difference, which drives the valves (oil inlet valve 316, oil outlet valve 317, water inlet valve 416, water outlet valve 417) to open and close, without the need for additional control circuits, and thus improves reliability.
[0019] like Figure 3 、 4 As shown, the oil pumping unit 3 includes an oil valve seat 31. A gap is arranged between the oil valve seat 31 and the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 11. An oil transition chamber 311 is defined in the oil valve seat 31. The oil transition chamber 311 is communicated with the upper chamber 241. An oil inlet 312 and an oil outlet 313 are defined on the top surface of the oil valve seat 31. The oil inlet 312 and the oil transition chamber 311 are communicated with each other through an oil inlet channel 314. The oil outlet 313 and the oil transition chamber 311 are communicated with each other through an oil output channel 315. The oil transition chamber 311 serves as a buffer zone, isolating the accommodating chamber 11 from the pumping pipeline, ensuring that only the upper layer of high-concentration oil is sucked in.
[0020] An oil inlet valve 316 that can be opened toward the oil transition chamber 311 is arranged at the connection between the oil transition chamber 311 and the oil inlet channel 314. An oil output valve 317 that can be opened toward the output direction of the oil output channel 315 is arranged at the connection between the oil transition chamber 311 and the oil output channel 315. The design of the oil inlet valve 316 and the oil output valve 317 realizes a one-way opening design, which, on the one hand, prevents backflow and ensures long-term stable operation, and on the other hand, avoids mixed discharge, that is, the direct discharge of the oil-water mixed liquid that is subsequently replenished.
[0021] like Figure 3 、 6As shown, the oil pumping unit 3 includes a filter plate 32, which is fixedly connected to the top surface of the oil valve seat 31. The filter plate 32 is used to filter impurities in the oil body. A small through hole is opened on the filter plate 32, which is used to allow the oil to flow. The filter plate 32 is set at the oil inlet 312 to intercept impurities in real time.
[0022] like Figure 3 、 5 As shown, the water pumping unit 4 includes a water valve seat 41, a water transition chamber 411 is opened in the water valve seat 41, the water transition chamber 411 is connected to the lower chamber 242, the top surface of the water valve seat 41 is opened with a water inlet 412 connected to the accommodating chamber 11, the outer shell 1 has a through hole that connects the accommodating chamber 11 and the water inlet 412, the bottom surface of the water valve seat 41 is opened with a water outlet 413 connected to the external water, the water inlet 412 and the water transition chamber 411 are connected through the water inlet channel 414, and the water outlet 413 and the water transition chamber 411 are connected through the water output channel 415.
[0023] A water inlet valve 416 that can be opened toward the water transition chamber 411 is arranged at the connection between the water transition chamber 411 and the water inlet channel 414, and a water output valve 417 that can be opened toward the output direction of the water output channel 415 is arranged at the connection between the water transition chamber 411 and the water output channel 415.
[0024] like Figure 2 、 3 As shown in FIG6 , the top surface of the housing 1 is provided with fixed blocks 12 at intervals. The fixed blocks 12 are fixedly connected to the driving member 21. A cofferdam 13 is provided between two adjacent fixed blocks 12. Figure 7 As shown, a cavity 121 is provided in the fixed block 12 and is connected to the floating cavity 14. The cavity 121 of the fixed block 12 is used to increase the buoyancy of the floating oil extraction pump. The design of the cavity 121 can reduce the overall mass of the floating oil extraction pump. A liquid inlet notch 131 is provided on the cofferdam 13, and the liquid inlet notch 131 has a V-shaped structure. The design of the cofferdam 13 with the V-shaped liquid inlet notch 131 expands the oil collection area and buffers water flow disturbances, ensuring that the floating oil continues to flow steadily into the accommodating chamber 11 and adapts to complex water environments.
[0025] The buoyancy provided by the floating chamber 14 and the cavity 121 of the fixed block 12 allows the liquid inlet opening 131 of the cofferdam 13 to float in the oil layer of the water body. The floating inlet opening 131 is designed to float on the oil layer by controlling the weight of the floating oil extraction pump and the buoyancy provided by the floating chamber 14 and the cavity 121 of the fixed block 12. Furthermore, the entire floating oil extraction pump is made of lightweight metal to ensure overall buoyancy. Furthermore, buoyancy balls can be added to the outside of the housing 1. According to actual conditions, a certain number of buoyancy balls can be fixed to increase buoyancy.
[0026] Working process: The floating oil extraction pump floats on the surface of the water body, the top surface of the housing 1 is immersed in the floating oil layer, the V-shaped liquid inlet notch 131 guides the oil-water mixture into the accommodating chamber 11, the oil body floats up to form a thick oil layer, and the water body sinks to the bottom of the accommodating chamber 11; Oil intake and water discharge: The driving member 21 pulls the piston rod 22 upward, the volume of the upper cavity 241 increases to form a negative pressure, the oil inlet valve 316 rotates and opens into the oil transition cavity 311, the oil output valve 317 is closed, and the oil is sucked into the oil transition cavity 311 through the oil inlet 312 and the oil inlet channel 314. The piston 23 moves upward to compress the lower cavity 242, the water output valve 417 rotates and opens in the water output direction, the water inlet valve 416 is closed, and the water in the water transition cavity 411 is pumped out from the water outlet 413 through the water output channel 415. Discharge of oil and intake of water: The driving member 21 pushes the piston rod 22 downward, pressurizing the upper chamber 241, opening the oil output valve 317 in the oil output direction, closing the oil inlet valve 316, and pumping the oil out from the oil outlet 313 through the oil output cavity 315. The volume of the lower chamber 242 increases to form a negative pressure, opening the water inlet valve 416, and closing the water output valve 417. The water at the bottom of the accommodating chamber 11 is sucked into the water transition chamber 411 through the water inlet 412 and the water inlet cavity 414. During the oil and water absorption process, the amount of liquid in the accommodating chamber 11 decreases. Consequently, the mixed liquid from the outside world subsequently enters the accommodating chamber 11 through the liquid inlet notch 131 of the cofferdam 13, absorbing the floating oil layer on the surface of the water body. This causes the thickness of the oil layer in the accommodating chamber 11 to be greater than the thickness of the floating oil layer outside, thereby achieving preliminary separation of oil and water and increasing the oil-to-water ratio in the liquid outputted from the oil outlet 313 of the pneumatic floating oil extraction pump. The piston 23 continuously reciprocates to realize continuous extraction of oil and synchronous replacement of water. The accommodating chamber 11 always maintains a high oil concentration, and the filter plate 32 intercepts impurities to ensure the purity of the oil.
