Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of leaf filter technology, specifically referring to a sludge removal and filtration device for leaf filters. Background Technology
[0002] Leaf filters, as a type of pressure filtration equipment, are widely used in chemical, metallurgical, and environmental protection fields, and play an important role, especially in the alumina production process. Traditional leaf filters mainly include vertical leaf filters and continuous slag discharge leaf filters, which mainly achieve solid-liquid separation through filter cloth or filter screen.
[0003] To protect leaf filters, secondary filtration protection devices are usually installed. For example, a sludge discharge filtration device for leaf filters is disclosed in application number CN202520298891.7. By installing it on the leaf filter and using the filter plate inside, it can provide sufficient protection for the leaf filter while making it easy to judge changes in the solid content of the material, and reducing wear on the internal structure of the leaf filter.
[0004] However, during the alumina production process, filter plates or filter cloths are prone to scaling and are difficult to clean, requiring periodic replacement of the filter cloth, which increases production costs and maintenance burden. Moreover, when the solid content of the material is high, the filter cloth clogs faster, affecting filtration efficiency. In particular, when the filter cake is full, the machine needs to be stopped to discharge the material, causing production interruption. In addition, the existing leaf filter sludge discharge device often has problems such as poor discharge of filter residue and back absorption of filtrate, resulting in problems such as low dryness and high alkali content of white mud. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the above situation and to overcome the defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a sludge removal and filtration device for leaf filters, which effectively solves the problem that the filter plates or filter cloths of existing leaf filters are easily clogged and affect the filtration efficiency, while also solving the problem of frequent shutdowns for cleaning and production interruptions, and solving the problem of poor sediment removal.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows: This invention proposes a sludge removal and filtration device for a leaf filter, comprising a filter box body and a cover plate fixed to the upper end of the filter box body by bolts.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the present invention proposes a sludge removal and filtration device for a leaf filter, comprising a filter box body 1 and a cover plate 2 fixed to the upper end of the filter box body 1 by bolts. The filter box body 1 is provided with an inlet pipe 3 on its side wall, and a drain pipe 4 is provided at the lower end of the filter box body 1 on the side symmetrical to the inlet pipe 3. The filter box body 1 is provided with a multi-stage filtration mechanism 5, and a filter plate cleaning mechanism 6 is connected to the multi-stage filtration mechanism 5. The bottom of the filter box body 1 is provided with an automatic sludge removal mechanism 7, and the automatic sludge removal mechanism 7 is located below the multi-stage filtration mechanism 5. In order to achieve filtration of slurry and ensure filtration effect, the multi-filtration mechanism 5 includes a support plate 8 fixed on the inner wall of the filter box body 1. A support plate 9 parallel to the support plate 8 is provided above the support plate 8. The support plate 9 is plugged and connected to the upper end of the filter box body 1. At the same time, a number of stainless steel filter plates 10 are plugged and connected to the support plate 9 along the direction of the longer side, and each stainless steel filter plate 10 is equidistantly distributed. In order to clean the stainless steel filter plate 10, the filter plate cleaning mechanism 6 consists of a slide rail 11, a moving plate 12 and a cleaning roller 13. The slide rail 11 is provided in two sets and is symmetrically fixed on both sides of the upper end of the support plate 9. The moving plate 12 is slidably connected to the slide rail 11, and the cleaning roller 13 is rotatably connected to the moving plate 12 and inserted into the stainless steel filter plate 10. In order to remove the deposited solid impurities, the automatic slag discharge mechanism 7 includes a sedimentation tank 14, a slag discharge pipe 15 and a spiral conveying roller 16. The sedimentation tank 14 is fixed to the bottom of the filter box body 1 and is arranged at intervals with the stainless steel filter plate 10. The slag discharge pipe 15 is connected to the bottom of one end of the sedimentation tank 14, and the spiral conveying roller 16 is rotatably connected to the slag discharge pipe 15.
[0019] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a sealing gasket 17 is provided between the support plate 9 and the support bracket 8, and the support plate 9 is fixed to the support bracket 8 by bolts passing through the sealing gasket 17. Several U-shaped sealing strips 18 are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the filter box body 1 and correspond one-to-one with the stainless steel filter plate 10. The bottom of the stainless steel filter plate 10 is provided with a sealing groove 19 that cooperates with the sealing strips 18. That is, the stainless steel filter plate 10 is connected to the sealing strips 18 by inserting and pulling through the sealing groove 19 at the bottom.
[0020] like Figure 3 A screw 20 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the filter box body 1. The screw 20 is parallel to the support plate 9 and perpendicular to the moving plate 12. A drive slider 21 is fixed to the moving plate 12 by bolts. The drive slider 21 is threaded to the screw 20. A reducer 22 connected to the screw 20 is provided on the side wall of the filter box body 1. At the same time, a cleaning motor 23 is connected to the reducer 22.
[0021] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, several racks 24 are evenly distributed at the lower end of the cover plate 2, and the racks 24 are arranged parallel to the screw 20. A gear 25 is fixed at the upper end of the cleaning roller 13, and the gear 25 meshes with the racks 24.
[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, an electromagnetic slag discharge valve 26 is provided on the slag discharge pipe 15, and a discharge motor 27 is fixed at one end of the sedimentation tank 14, and the output shaft of the discharge motor 27 is connected to the screw conveyor roller 16.
[0023] like Figure 2 and Figure 8 The sidewall of the cleaning roller 13 is evenly covered with several bristles 28, which are made of nylon.
[0024] like Figure 7 As shown, the support plate 9 is a cuboid with an open top, and several through holes are evenly distributed on the side wall of the support plate 9. The diameter of the through holes on each stainless steel filter plate 10 gradually decreases from the liquid inlet pipe 3 to the liquid outlet pipe 4. The support plate 8 and the sealing gasket 17 are both arranged in a U-shape.
[0025] In practical use, several stainless steel filter plates 10 are inserted sequentially into the through grooves on the support plate 9. The sealing gasket 17 is placed on the support bracket 8 on the inner wall of the filter box body 1. Then, the support plate 9 is slightly tilted and the screw 20 is inserted from the top side of the filter box body 1 to the bottom until the entire support plate 9 is parallel to the support bracket 8. Then, bolts are used to pass through the support plate 9 and the sealing gasket 17 in sequence and screwed onto the support bracket 8 to complete the fixation, so that the support plate 9 presses the sealing gasket 17 tightly. Then, the drive slider 21 threaded to the screw 20 is fixed to the moving plate 12 by bolts. Then, the cover plate 2 is placed on the upper end of the filter box body 1, so that the rack 24 at its bottom meshes with each set of gears 25. Then, the cover plate 2 is fixed to the filter box body 1 by bolts. The external slurry is sent into the filter box body 1 through the liquid inlet pipe 3. After being filtered by multiple sets of stainless steel filter plates 10, the liquid is discharged from one side of the drain pipe 4, while solid impurities are filtered between each set of stainless steel filter plates 10. Over time, the filter box body 1... After the internal water flow stabilizes, solid impurities settle into the sedimentation tank 14. When it is necessary to clean the sediment, simply turn on the discharge motor 27 to drive the spiral conveyor roller 16 to rotate and open the electromagnetic slag discharge valve 26. The sediment in the sedimentation tank 14 can be transported to the slag discharge pipe 15 and discharged through the slag discharge pipe 15. When it is necessary to clean the through holes on the stainless steel filter plate 10, simply turn on the cleaning motor 23 to drive the screw 20 to rotate through the reducer 22. This causes the drive slider 21, which is threaded onto the screw 20, to drive the moving plate 12 connected to the drive slider 21 to slide along the slide rail 11. This allows the cleaning rollers 13 on the moving plate 12 to clean the inner wall of the stainless steel filter plate 10. During this process, the gear 25 at the upper end of the cleaning roller 13, under the action of the gear 24 meshing with it, drives the cleaning roller 13 to rotate. The bristles 28 on the cleaning roller 13 can then pass through the through holes of the stainless steel filter plate 10 from the inside to the outside to complete the unblocking. The above is the entire process of using the sludge removal and filtration device for the leaf filter.
[0026] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the spirit of the invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
