Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of evaporator technology, specifically a multi-stage thin-film evaporator for removing low-boiling substances from polyethers. Background Technology

[0002] The multi-stage thin-film evaporator for removing low-boiling-point substances from polyether is a highly efficient separation device. Its core principle is to use high vacuum and heated surfaces to form an extremely thin liquid film in the polyether melt under the action of mechanical scrapers, thereby providing a huge evaporation surface area for low-boiling-point substances. These volatile components are rapidly evaporated and separated, and then removed through the vacuum system.

[0003] Existing technologies, during use, struggle to generate strong shear forces to quickly break the entanglement of polyether molecular chains and accelerate the escape of low-boiling-point substances. Simultaneously, they are difficult to avoid excessive shearing leading to product degradation and to maintain a uniform film to promote deep devolatilization. Therefore, achieving the optimal balance between efficiency and quality is challenging, and these technologies also overcome the limitations of traditional fixed-speed technology. Furthermore, existing technologies struggle to compensate for scraper wear in real time, maintain optimal liquid film thickness, and adapt to low-viscosity polyethers, assist in material dispersion, prevent splashing, and reduce material residue.

[0004] In conclusion, existing technologies struggle to create vortex flow fields to extend material residence time and enhance mass transfer. Furthermore, some devices find it difficult to precisely control liquid film distribution through curved surface structures to avoid dry walls, making it challenging to adapt to the evaporation requirements of materials with varying viscosities. This hinders the intelligent transition from impact scraping to deep devolatilization, resulting in poor separation efficiency in the high-viscosity stage. Existing technologies also struggle to address the devolatilization problem of high-viscosity materials through precise high-frequency micro-oscillations, making it difficult to effectively disrupt the stagnant boundary layer and enhance diffusion mass transfer of low-boiling-point substances. Additionally, some devices struggle to handle the risk of coking in different areas, making it difficult to achieve adaptive scale inhibition and synergistic optimization with deep devolatilization, thus limiting their practical applicability.

The embodiments of this invention will now be described according to its overall structure.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] Please see Figures 1-2 The present invention provides a multi-stage thin-film evaporator for removing low-boiling substances from polyether, comprising an evaporator body 1, a feed inlet 2 fixedly connected to the upper right end of the evaporator body 1, an outlet 3 fixedly connected to the upper front end of the evaporator body 1, a differential speed mechanism 4 fixedly connected to the top of the evaporator body 1, and an outlet 3 connected to an external condenser.

[0033] The differential mechanism 4 includes a first mounting box 41. The first mounting box 41 is fixedly connected to the top of the evaporator body 1. The first motor 42 is fixedly connected to the front end of the top of the first mounting box 41. The first gear 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom output shaft of the first motor 42. The first mounting box 41 facilitates the installation and fixing of the first motor 42.

[0034] The back of the first gear 43 is engaged with the second gear 44. The bottom of the first gear 43 is fixedly connected to the third gear 45 via a gear rod. The back of the third gear 45 is engaged with the fourth gear 46. The bottom of the fourth gear 46 is fixedly connected to the mounting rod 47, which facilitates the rotation of the mounting rod 47.

[0035] A scraper 48 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mounting rod 47. A first adjusting mechanism 49 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer wall of the scraper 48. A first connecting rod 410 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second gear 44. The outer wall of the first connecting rod 410 is in frictional contact with the friction block 411. A second connecting rod 412 is provided below the first connecting rod 410. The second connecting rod 412 facilitates the rotation of the second adjusting mechanism 413 at its bottom and synchronously drives the four sets of vibration mechanisms 414 to rotate.

[0036] The bottom of both the second connecting rod 412 and the first connecting rod 410 are fixedly connected to the second adjusting mechanism 413. The upper and lower sides of the left and right ends of the second connecting rod 412 are fixedly connected to the vibration mechanism 414. The first connecting rod 410 passes through the mounting rod 47 and is slidably connected to its interior. The mounting rod 47 facilitates the rotation of the scraper 48.

[0037] The bottom of the second adjusting mechanism 413 near the first connecting rod 410 is fixedly connected to the second connecting rod 412. The bottoms of the third gear 45 and the fourth gear 46 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the first mounting box 41. The mounting rod 47 passes through the bottom of the first mounting box 41 and the top of the evaporator body 1 and is rotatably connected to its interior.

[0038] The working principle of a multi-stage thin-film evaporator for removing low-boiling substances from polyether, based on Example 1, is as follows:

[0039] First, when using this device, place it in the work area, and then connect it to an external power source to provide the power required for its operation.

[0040] Second, the staff conveys the material from the feed inlet 2 into the evaporator body 1, and then starts the first motor 42. The first motor 42 drives the first gear 43 to rotate, the first gear 43 drives the second gear 44 to rotate, the second gear 44 drives the first connecting rod 410 to rotate, the first connecting rod 410 drives the second adjusting mechanism 413 at its bottom to rotate, the second adjusting mechanism 413 drives the second connecting rod 412 to rotate, and the second connecting rod 412 drives the second adjusting mechanism 413 at its bottom to rotate, simultaneously driving the four sets of vibration mechanisms 414 to rotate. This causes the vibration mechanisms 414 and the two sets of second adjusting mechanisms 413 to perform decelerated rotational motion. At the same time, the rotational speed can be further reduced by replacing the friction blocks 411 with different friction coefficients. During the rotation of the first gear 43, the third gear 45 drives the third gear 45 to rotate through its bottom gear rod, the third gear 45 drives the fourth gear 46 to rotate, the fourth gear 46 drives the mounting rod 47 to rotate, and the mounting rod 47 drives the scraper 48 to rotate, causing the scraper 48 to perform accelerated rotational motion, thereby driving the vibration mechanism 414 to rotate. 14. The differential speed movement between the two sets of second adjustment mechanisms 413 and scraper 48 generates strong shear force in the early stage, quickly breaking the polyether molecular chain entanglement and accelerating the escape of low-boiling substances. In the later stage, it avoids excessive shearing that leads to product degradation, maintains a uniform film and promotes deep volatilization, thereby achieving the best balance between efficiency and quality. This breaks through the technical limitations of traditional fixed speed. At the same time, through the synchronous high-speed rotation of vibration mechanism 414, two sets of second adjustment mechanisms 413 and scraper 48, the vibration mechanism 414, two sets of second adjustment mechanisms 413 and scraper 48 scrape the dispersed material into an extremely thin film inside the evaporator body 1 under the action of centrifugal force. Then, the operator introduces a heating medium to the outside of the evaporator body 1 through external heating equipment. The film inside the evaporator body 1 is heated by heat transfer. After the material is heated, the volatile components in it quickly vaporize, and the formed steam flows upward and enters the external condenser through the outlet 3, where it is condensed into liquid and collected. The non-volatile components flow downward along the heating tube wall and are finally discharged from the bottom of the evaporator body 1.

[0041] Example 2:

[0042] Please see Figures 3-4 The present invention provides a multi-stage thin-film evaporator for removing low-boiling substances from polyether. Compared with Embodiment 1, this embodiment further includes: a first adjustment mechanism 49, which includes a first airbag 491. Six sets of first airbags 491 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer wall of the scraper 48. A high-performance polytetrafluoroethylene composite layer 492 is adhesively connected to the top of the first airbag 491. The high-performance polytetrafluoroethylene composite layer 492 facilitates the improvement of the wear resistance and high temperature resistance of the first airbag 491.

[0043] A piston cylinder 493 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting rod 47. Three sets of connecting pipes 494 are fixedly connected to both ends of the piston cylinder 493. A solenoid valve 495 is fixedly connected to the delivery port of the connecting pipe 494. The top of the piston cylinder 493 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the piston rod 496. The connecting pipe 494 facilitates the delivery of gas.

[0044] Eight sets of first electromagnetic blocks 497 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the mounting rod 47, and the first electromagnetic blocks 497 are electrically connected to the external current output device. A first sealing plug 498 is sealed above the front end of the piston cylinder 493. The outer side of the connecting pipe 494 is fixedly connected to the first airbag 491. The piston rod 496 is magnetically attracted to the first electromagnetic blocks 497.

[0045] In this embodiment:

[0046] When the first airbag 491 needs to be inflated, the operator first introduces pure gas into the piston cylinder 493 and seals the piston cylinder 493 with the first sealing plug 498. Then, the six sets of solenoid valves 495 are activated, and the eight sets of first electromagnetic blocks 497 are driven by an external current output device. This causes the piston rod 496 to move downward under the magnetic attraction of the eight sets of first electromagnetic blocks 497. The piston rod 496 then transports the pure gas in the piston cylinder 493 to the first airbag 491 through the connecting pipe 494, thus achieving inflation. Inflating the first airbag 491 is the opposite of inflating it. Instead, the gas in the piston cylinder 493 is vented beforehand. The piston rod 496 is moved upward by the magnetic attraction of the eight sets of first electromagnetic blocks 497, so that the gas in the first airbag 491 enters the piston cylinder 493 through the connecting pipe 494, thus completing the deflating of the first airbag 491. By inflating and deflating the first airbag 491, the wear of the scraper 48 is compensated in real time, the optimal liquid film thickness is maintained, and it is suitable for low-viscosity polyether, assists in the dispersion of materials, avoids splashing, and reduces material residue.

[0047] Example 3:

[0048] Please see Figures 5-6The present invention provides a multi-stage thin-film evaporator for removing low-boiling substances from polyethers. Compared with Embodiment 1, this embodiment further includes: a second adjustment mechanism 413. The second adjustment mechanism 413 includes a second mounting box 4131. The bottom of the second connecting rod 412 and the first connecting rod 410 are both fixedly connected to the second mounting box 4131. The bottom of the second mounting box 4131 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 4132. The back of the mounting plate 4132 is fixedly connected to a second motor 4133. The mounting plate 4132 facilitates the installation and fixing of the second motor 4133.

[0049] The front output shaft of the second motor 4133 is fixedly connected to a rotating block 4134. The right front side and the left back side of the rotating block 4134 are rotatably connected to a first swing rod 4135. The outer side of the first swing rod 4135 is fixedly connected to a second electromagnetic block 4136. The outer wall of the second electromagnetic block 4136 is slidably connected to a first limiting rod 4137. The outer wall of the first limiting rod 4137 is slidably connected to a second limiting rod 4138. The rotating block 4134 facilitates the swinging of the first swing rod 4135.

[0050] A curved block 4139 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the first limiting rod 4137. The second mounting box 4131 is provided with a first sliding groove 41310 at both the left and right ends. A second airbag 41311 is fixedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the first sliding groove 41310. A second sealing plug 41312 is sealed to the outer side of the second airbag 41311. The second sealing plug 41312 facilitates sealing of the second airbag 41311.

[0051] The second electromagnetic block 4136 is electrically connected to the external current output device. The outer wall of the second electromagnetic block 4136 is magnetically attracted to the first limiting rod 4137. The outer wall of the second airbag 41311 is in contact with the first limiting rod 4137. The back of the second limiting rod 4138 is rotatably connected to the front end of the mounting plate 4132.

[0052] In this embodiment:

[0053] When the angle of the curved block 4139 needs to be adjusted, the second motor 4133 is started. The second motor 4133 drives the rotating block 4134 to rotate. The rotating block 4134, through its rotational connection with the two sets of first swing rods 4135, drives the first swing rods 4135 to swing. The first swing rods 4135 drive the first limit rods 4137 and the second limit rods 4138 to swing. The first limit rods 4137 drive the curved block 4139 to swing, thus completing the angle adjustment of the curved block 4139. When the length of the curved block 4139 needs to be adjusted, the second electromagnetic block 4136 is activated by an external current output device, causing the second electromagnetic block 4136 to magnetically attract the first limit rod 4137. When the rotating block 4134 drives the first swing rods 4135 to swing, the first swing rods 4135 drive the second electromagnetic block 4136 to swing and move to the left or right. The second electromagnetic block 4136, through magnetic adsorption with the first limiting rod 4137, drives the first limiting rod 4137 to move left or right within the second limiting rod 4138. The first limiting rod 4137 drives the curved block 4139 to move left or right, thereby adjusting the length of the curved block 4139. After the angle and length of the curved block 4139 are adjusted, the second airbag 41311 is inflated by external equipment and sealed by the second sealing plug 41312 to maintain the airtightness of the second mounting box 4131. The adjustment of the curved block 4139 forms a vortex flow field to extend the material residence time and enhance mass transfer. At the same time, its curved structure can accurately control the liquid film distribution, avoid dry walls, and adapt to the evaporation requirements of materials with different viscosities by adjusting the angle, realizing an intelligent transition from impact scraping to deep devolatilization, significantly improving the separation efficiency in the high viscosity stage.

There are two sets of the fourth electromagnetic block 41410, which are fixedly connected to the bottom and right end of the micro vibrator 41411, respectively. The bottom of the micro vibrator 41411 is magnetically attracted to the bottom of the third mounting box 4141.

[0058] The third electromagnetic block 4143 and the fourth electromagnetic block 41410 are both electrically connected to the external current output device, and the inner tooth plate of the gear tooth plate 4144 is slidably connected to the second slide groove 4142.

[0059] In this embodiment:

[0060] During use, scraper 48 activates the micro vibrator 41411. Through high-frequency mechanical vibration, the vibration is transmitted to the liquid film, solving the problem of high-viscosity material devolatilization, effectively breaking down the stagnant boundary layer and enhancing the diffusion and mass transfer of low-boiling-point substances. When the position of the micro vibrator 41411 needs adjustment, an external current output device first stops the fourth electromagnetic block 41410 at the bottom of the micro vibrator 41411 and starts the fourth electromagnetic block 41410 at the right end of the micro vibrator 41411, thus... The fourth electromagnetic block 41410 on the right end of the miniature vibrator 41411 is magnetically attracted to the sliding block 4149. An external current output device then drives the eleventh set of third electromagnetic blocks 4143 to work, causing the inner gear plate of the gear plate component 4144 to move left or right due to the magnetic attraction of the eleventh set of third electromagnetic blocks 4143. The inner gear plate of the gear plate component 4144 drives the internal gear to rotate. The internal gear of the gear plate component 4144 drives the turntable 4145 to rotate via its bottom gear rod. The turntable 4145 then drives the convex rod... 4146 performs circular motion, causing the convex rod 4146 to drive the grooved wheel 4147 to rotate through intermittent engagement with the grooved wheel 4147. The grooved wheel 4147, through its rotational connection with the second swing rod 4148, drives the sliding block 4149 to move left or right. The sliding block 4149, through the fourth electromagnetic block 41410 at the right end of the micro vibrator 41411, drives the micro vibrator 41411 to move left or right. When the micro vibrator 41411 moves to the desired position, the external current output device drives the micro vibrator 41411 to move left or right. When the fourth electromagnetic block 41410 at the bottom of the micro vibrator 41411 starts working and the fourth electromagnetic block 41410 at the right end of the micro vibrator 41411 stops working, the fourth electromagnetic block 41410 at the bottom of the micro vibrator 41411 is magnetically attracted to the bottom of the third mounting box 4141. This makes it easier for the micro vibrator 41411 to transmit vibration when it is working. Furthermore, by adjusting the position of the micro vibrator 41411, the risk of coking in different areas can be dealt with, achieving adaptive scale inhibition and synergistic optimization with deep devolvation, breaking through the efficiency bottleneck of traditional scrapers.

[0061] This invention provides an improved multi-stage thin-film evaporator for removing low-boiling-point substances from polyethers. It incorporates a differential speed mechanism 4, which, through the differential motion between a vibration mechanism 414, two sets of second adjustment mechanisms 413, and a scraper 48, generates strong shear force in the early stages to rapidly break the polyether molecular chain entanglement and accelerate the escape of low-boiling-point substances. In the later stages, it avoids excessive shearing that could lead to product degradation, maintaining a uniform film and promoting deep devolatilization, thus achieving an optimal balance between efficiency and quality, overcoming the limitations of traditional fixed-speed evaporators. A first adjustment mechanism 49 is included, which, by inflating and deflating a first airbag 491, compensates for wear on the scraper 48 in real time, maintaining optimal liquid film thickness, adapting to low-viscosity polyethers, assisting in material dispersion, preventing splashing, and reducing material residue. A second adjustment mechanism 413 is installed, which extends the material residence time and enhances mass transfer by adjusting the curved block 4139 to form a vortex flow field. At the same time, its curved structure can accurately control the liquid film distribution, avoid dry walls, and adapt to the evaporation requirements of materials with different viscosities by adjusting the angle, realizing an intelligent transition from impact scraping to deep devolatilization, significantly improving the separation efficiency of the high viscosity stage. A vibration mechanism 414 is set up, which solves the problem of high viscosity material devolatilization by using a micro vibrator 41411, effectively destroying the stagnant boundary layer and enhancing the diffusion mass transfer of low boiling substances. By adjusting the position of the micro vibrator 41411, the risk of coking in different areas is handled, realizing adaptive scale inhibition and synergistic optimization with deep devolatilization, breaking through the efficiency bottleneck of traditional scrapers.
