Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mechanical equipment, and in particular to a fully automatic carbon filter filling device. Background Technology

[0002] Carbonaceous filters, especially those using a mixture of kaolin and activated carbon as the filter medium, are widely used in air purification, water treatment, and industrial waste gas treatment due to their excellent adsorption and filtration performance. One of their core manufacturing processes is to precisely and evenly pour a kaolin-activated carbon slurry or wet granules mixed with binder (glue) into the inner cavity of the annular filter housing to form a filter element with a preset shape and density.

[0003] Currently, this injection process has the following problems in production practice:

[0004] 1. The inner cavity of a filter is usually annular, requiring the filter medium to be filled into a matching annular strip, rather than a solid cylinder. Traditional manual pouring or simple mechanical feeding methods cannot guarantee the uniformity of the medium distribution and shape consistency in the circumferential direction, which can easily lead to localized areas of excessively thick or thin filter elements, affecting the filtration efficiency and pressure drop characteristics of the final product.

[0005] 2. There are technical challenges in efficiently and systematically processing and filling viscous media into the annular molds at each workstation;

[0006] 3. The mixture of kaolin, activated carbon, and adhesive has a certain degree of viscosity and cohesion, which makes it easy to stick to equipment and leave residues during transportation and spreading. Summary of the Invention

[0023] The drive gear meshes with the gear ring, which is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the turntable.

[0024] Preferably, the bottom of the inner wall of the blocking section of the second baffle is chamfered at right angles, and multiple gas nozzles are arranged at equal angles on the chamfered surface.

[0038] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0039] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0040] 1. This application integrates the two processes of annular material feeding and mixing and filling into one station, which are automatically completed in series by the continuous rotation of the turntable. After the filter housing is fixed, the filling step can be completed by rotating the turntable. This application does not require separate material feeding and filling operations for each filter housing, realizing efficient production line production, which is very suitable for mass production.

[0041] 2. The gas nozzles set on the bottom chamfered surface of the inner wall of the second baffle section form an air curtain, which can effectively block the fine oil filter media from entering the gap between the second baffle and the turntable. The internal purging force formed by this air curtain can directly assist the oil filter media to move towards the filling hole, which is conducive to the oil filter media entering the filling hole. At the same time, the gas nozzles at the bottom of the connecting plate apply a compaction guiding force from directly above, which, together with the horizontal converging force provided by the gas nozzles on the bottom chamfered surface of the inner wall of the second baffle section, forms a combined force, which can more effectively press the material into the filling hole, improving the filling efficiency and density of the filter.

[0042] 3. The compressed gas generated by the air compressor is delivered to the pneumatic vibrator, which generates vibration. Under continuous vibration, the particles of the oil filter medium slide down to a more stable and compact arrangement under the action of gravity, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the oil filter medium's circumferential distribution and the consistency of its shape. Furthermore, the gas discharged from the pneumatic vibrator can be used as exhaust gas to provide an air source for the second baffle and the gas nozzles on the connecting plate.

[0043] 4. The gas discharged from the pneumatic vibrator is heated by an air electric heater, so that the gas nozzles on the second baffle and the connecting plate spray hot gas. The heated gas can keep the glue in the oil filter medium within the working temperature window, so that the glue viscosity is stable and the fluidity is good, which makes it easy to cooperate with the stirring mechanism and the gas nozzle to enter the filling hole, thus helping to improve the filling efficiency.

[0070] To better explain and facilitate understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0071] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 as well as Figure 9 The first embodiment of the present invention:

[0072] A fully automatic carbon filter filling device includes a base 1, a vertical shaft 2, a rotating shaft 3, a turntable 5, a support plate 6, a drive mechanism 4, a lifting mechanism 7, a first baffle 9, a second baffle 10, and a stirring mechanism 11.

[0073] Vertical shaft 2 is vertically mounted on base 1;

[0074] A rotating shaft 3 is fitted onto the vertical shaft 2;

[0075] Drive mechanism 4 is connected to rotating shaft 3 and is used to drive rotating shaft 3 to rotate;

[0076] The turntable 5 is fixed on the rotating shaft 3, and multiple injection holes 51 are arranged in a circular array around the center of the turntable 5.

[0077] The support plate 6 is located below the turntable 5, and the support plate 6 is provided with a fixing clamp 8 corresponding to the filling hole 51 for fixing the carbon filter housing.

[0078] The lifting mechanism 7 is installed on the top of the vertical shaft 2, and the lifting end of the lifting mechanism 7 is connected to the first baffle 9 and the second baffle 10 respectively.

[0079] The first baffle 9 and the second baffle 10 are respectively set on any two different radius lines on the turntable 5. The first baffle 9 and the second baffle 10 are each provided with a semi-arc-shaped blocking section 91 at the position corresponding to the injection hole 51. The bottom of the blocking section 91 of the first baffle 9 is provided with a material filling notch 92, and the length of the material filling notch 92 is the same as the diameter of the injection hole 51.

[0080] The stirring mechanism 11 is mounted on the blocking section 91 of the second baffle 10;

[0081] In use, the carbon filter housing is installed in the fixed clamp 8, and the opening of the carbon filter housing is aligned with the corresponding filling hole 51. The feeding mechanism 14 conveys the oil filter medium composed of kaolin and activated carbon to the turntable 5. Driven by the drive mechanism 4, the turntable 5 rotates while the vertical shaft 2 remains stationary. The oil filter medium first falls into the blocking section 91 of the first baffle 9. When the turntable 5 rotates, the oil filter medium can only fall through the material gap 92, thus automatically and accurately forming an annular material belt that perfectly matches the carbon filter housing. As the turntable 5 rotates, the oil filter medium laid on the turntable 5 enters the blocking section 91 of the second baffle 10. Under the action of the stirring mechanism 11, the oil filter medium is swept into the corresponding filling hole 51. The stirring mechanism 11 not only improves the filling efficiency but also moderately stirs the medium during the pushing process, making the density of the medium entering the filter housing more uniform, thereby realizing the automatic filling of the carbon filter.

[0082] In this embodiment, the two processes of annular material feeding and mixing and filling are integrated into one station and automatically completed by the continuous rotation of turntable 5. After the filter housing is fixed, the filling step can be completed by rotating turntable 5, which shortens the production cycle. This application does not require separate material feeding and filling operations for each filter housing, realizing efficient assembly line production, which is very suitable for mass production.

[0083] refer to Figure 7 According to the second embodiment of the present invention, based on the first embodiment described above, the stirring mechanism 11 includes a connecting plate 113, a stirring shaft 114, a stirring plate 115, a drive gear 112, and a gear ring 111.

[0084] The connecting plate 113 is fixedly installed on the top of the blocking section 91 of the second baffle 10;

[0085] The stirring shaft 114 is connected to the connecting plate 113 via a bearing. One end of the bottom of the stirring shaft 114 extends downward and is connected to the stirring plate 115. One end of the top of the stirring shaft 114 is connected to the drive gear 112.

[0086] The drive gear 112 meshes with the gear ring 111, which is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the turntable 5. The bottom of the inner wall of the blocking section 91 of the second baffle 10 is chamfered at a right angle. Multiple gas nozzles 116 are arranged at equal angle intervals on the chamfered surface. Multiple gas nozzles 116 corresponding to the injection hole 51 are also provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 113.

[0087] In this embodiment, when the turntable 5 rotates, the stirring shaft 114 drives the stirring plate 115 to rotate through the cooperation of the gear ring 111 and the drive gear 112. The stirring plate 115 sweeps the oil filter medium into the corresponding filling hole 51. The gas nozzle 116 set on the bottom chamfered surface of the inner wall of the blocking section 91 of the second baffle 10 forms an air curtain, which can effectively block the fine oil filter medium from entering the running gap between the second baffle 10 and the turntable 5. The internal purging force formed by this air curtain can directly assist the oil filter medium to move towards the filling hole 51, which is conducive to the oil filter medium entering the filling hole 51. At the same time, the gas nozzle 116 at the bottom of the connecting plate 113 applies a compaction guiding force from directly above, which, together with the horizontal converging force provided by the gas nozzle 116 on the bottom chamfered surface of the inner wall of the blocking section 91 of the second baffle 10, forms a combined force, which can more effectively press the material into the filling hole 51, improving the filling efficiency and density.

The air compressor 121 is connected to the air inlet of the pneumatic vibrator 122 through an air inlet pipe, and the air outlet of the pneumatic vibrator 122 is connected to the second baffle 10 through an air outlet pipe to provide an air source for the second baffle 10 and the gas nozzles 116 on the connecting plate 113.

[0090] In use, the compressed gas generated by the air compressor 121 is delivered to the pneumatic vibrator 122. The pneumatic vibrator 122 generates vibration, and under continuous vibration, the particles of the oil filter medium slide into a more stable and compact arrangement under the action of gravity, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the oil filter medium distribution and the consistency of its shape in the circumferential direction. In addition, the gas discharged from the pneumatic vibrator 122 can be used as waste gas to provide an air source for the second baffle 10 and the gas nozzles 116 on the connecting plate 113.

[0091] In this embodiment, the vibration air supply mechanism 12 also includes an air electric heater 123, and the air outlet of the pneumatic vibrator 122 is connected to the air electric heater 123 and the second baffle 10 in sequence through the air outlet pipe.

[0092] The gas discharged from the pneumatic vibrator 122 is heated by the air electric heater 123, so that the gas nozzles 116 on the second baffle 10 and the connecting plate 113 spray hot gas. The heated gas can keep the glue in the oil filter medium within the working temperature window, so that the glue viscosity is stable and the fluidity is good, which makes it easy to enter the filling hole 51 with the stirring mechanism 11 and the gas nozzles 116, thus helping to improve the filling efficiency.

[0094] The drive motor is mounted on the base 1 and is connected to the drive gear;

[0095] The driven gear meshes with the driving gear and is fixed to the bottom of the rotating shaft 3;

[0097] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 7 includes a lifting cylinder 72, a limiting plate 71, a guide rod 74, and a lifting plate 73;

[0098] The limiting plate 71 is set at the top of the vertical shaft 2;

[0099] The lifting cylinder 72 is mounted on the limiting plate 71, and the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 72 passes through the limiting plate 71 and connects to the lifting plate 73;

[0100] The top end of the guide rod 74 is connected to the limiting plate 71, and the bottom end of the guide rod 74 is connected to the vertical shaft 2 through the limiting block;

[0101] The lifting plate 73 has guide holes corresponding to the guide rod 74;

[0102] In use, the lifting plate 73 is driven to move up and down by the lifting cylinder 72, thereby controlling the lifting and moving of the first baffle 9 and the second baffle 10.

[0103] In this embodiment, an adjusting cylinder 13 is provided at the bottom of the support plate 6. The piston rod of the adjusting cylinder 13 passes through the support plate 6 and is fixedly connected to the turntable 5.
