Technical Field
[0001] This invention is an automatic flocculation and screening device for wastewater, belonging to the technical field of wastewater treatment. Background Technology
[0002] During the wastewater treatment process, a large amount of excrement, shed biofilm, algae, debris and other solid pollutants are continuously generated in the wastewater. These substances enter the wastewater treatment system, resulting in high concentration of suspended solids, high organic load and high turbidity in the wastewater. By mixing chemical flocculants through a stirring mechanism, the suspended solids are precipitated in the treatment tank and then discharged after further filtration by a filtration mechanism.
[0003] However, the flocculated sediment in the sewage treatment tank requires manual cleaning after regular shutdowns, making it impossible for the sewage treatment system to operate automatically and continuously. This increases maintenance costs and time consumption. At the same time, the filter cloth used to filter the flocculated sediment in the sewage treatment tank is prone to clogging, leading to increased effluent resistance in the sewage treatment tank. This necessitates frequent replacement or cleaning of the filter cloth, affecting the long-term stability of the equipment and causing unstable sewage treatment results. To address these issues, some people in the art have developed an automatic sewage flocculation and screening device to overcome the problems mentioned above. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an automatic flocculation and screening device for wastewater includes a separation tank 11. An inlet pipe 1 is connected to the upper part of the separation tank 11, and an inlet valve 2 is installed on the inlet pipe 1. A separation motor 12 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the separation tank 11. A drive gear 5 is fixedly connected to the end of the drive shaft of the separation motor 12, and the drive gear 5 is located inside the separation tank 11. A separation shaft 14 is also provided at the center inside the separation tank 11. A rotating gear 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the separation shaft 14. Both the drive gear 5 and the rotating gear 3 are conical and mesh with each other through teeth. The separation shaft 14 is hollow inside, and separation discs are uniformly fixed to its outer surface. 15. The separation disc 15 has uniformly distributed screening grooves 7 inside. The screening grooves 7 are spiral in shape, with the same spiral direction and facing the separation shaft 14. The screening grooves 7 are hollowly connected to the separation shaft 14. The lower end of the separation shaft 14 is connected to a clean water pipe 23. A mechanical seal 22 is provided at the connection between the separation shaft 14 and the clean water pipe 23. The clean water pipe 23 extends out of the separation tank 11. A clean water filter screen 9 and a connecting valve 32 are also provided on the clean water pipe 23. The end of the clean water pipe 23 is connected to a clean water tank 24. A separation tank level gauge 30 is also provided at the bottom of the separation tank 11. The separation tank level gauge 30 is used to detect the liquid level of the sewage in the separation tank 11.
[0021] The separation tank 11 is also connected to a flocculation pipe 4, which is equipped with a flocculation valve 10. The flocculation valve 10 is used to add flocculant to the separation tank 11 at regular intervals. The flocculant neutralizes and captures the suspended particles in the separation tank 11, causing the dispersed particles to agglomerate.
[0022] Wastewater is collected in the separator 11 through the inlet pipe 1. When the wastewater level in the separator 11 reaches the set level, the separator motor 12 starts and the connecting valve 32 opens, driving the separator shaft 14 and separator disc 15 to rotate. The wastewater in the separator 11 is neutralized and coagulated by the flocculant to form dirt, which then rotates with the separator disc 15. Due to the different centripetal forces of water and dirt, clean water enters the separator shaft 14 through the screening groove 7 of the separator disc 15, is further filtered by the clean water filter screen 9, and then flows into the clean water tank 24 for storage. The separated dirt remains in the separator 11.
[0023] The bottom of the separator 11 is also provided with an aeration pipe 19, and an air compressor 18 is connected to the end of the aeration pipe 19. An aeration valve 20 is also provided on the aeration pipe 19. The air compressor 18 and the aeration valve 20 are located outside the separator 11. Aeration structures 21 are also evenly distributed on one side of the aeration pipe 19 at the bottom of the separator 11.
[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the aeration structure 21 includes an aeration column 34, which is hollow inside. The aeration column 34 and the aeration pipe 19 are placed vertically, and a self-sealing column 35 is provided at their intersection. The self-sealing column 35 is hollow inside, with one end open and the other end closed. The open end of the self-sealing column 35 is connected to the aeration pipe 19. An aeration column 34 is fixed above the self-sealing column 35. The aeration column 34 is hollow and communicates with the hollow interior of the self-sealing column 35. A self-sealing disc 36 and a spring are also provided inside the hollow self-sealing column 35. Normally, the self-sealing disc 36 extends into the aeration pipe 19 under the action of the spring, sealing the air outlet of the aeration pipe 19.
[0025] The aeration column 34 is also equipped with a bearing 37, which is fixed to the lower inner surface of the aeration column 34 by a connecting rod. The bearing 37 is equipped with a central shaft 42, and the lower part of the central shaft 42 is also fixed to an impeller disk 39. The surface of the impeller disk 39 is distributed with spiral blades.
[0026] The outlet of the aeration column 34 is also provided with a steering assembly, which includes a reverse shaft 33. The reverse shaft 33 is located on the surface of the central shaft 42 and can rotate on the surface of the central shaft 42. The surface of the central shaft 42 is also provided with a first bevel gear 43. A second bevel gear 40 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the reverse shaft 33. A fixed rod 38 is also fixedly connected to the inner wall of the aeration column 34. A third bevel gear 41 is also provided at the end of the fixed rod 38. The third bevel gear 41 can rotate at the end of the fixed rod 38. The first bevel gear 43, the second bevel gear 40 and the third bevel gear 41 are placed vertically and mesh with each other through teeth. An air flotation net 17 is also fixedly connected to the surface of the central shaft 42 and the reverse shaft 33.
[0027] When the separation motor 12 is turned on, the air compressor 18 and the aeration valve 20 are simultaneously opened. The generated compressed air pushes the sealing disc 36 away from the outlet of the aeration pipe 19 and enters the aeration column 34. The compressed air is then ejected from the aeration column 34, forming an upward rapid airflow that drives the impeller disc 39 to rotate. The rotation of the impeller disc 39 drives the central shaft 42 to rotate, which in turn drives the first bevel gear 43 to rotate. Then, through the third bevel gear 41, the second bevel gear 40 rotates in the opposite direction. The reverse rotation of the second bevel gear 40... The rotation causes the reverse shaft 33 to rotate in the opposite direction relative to the central shaft 42, thereby achieving the opposite rotation of the air flotation net 17 on the surface of the reverse shaft 33 and the central shaft 42. Compressed air is cut by the air flotation net 17 in both directions, forming upward microbubbles. The dirt separated in the separation tank 11 combines with the microbubbles and floats upward to the surface of the water in the separation tank 11. When the air compressor 18 and the aeration valve 20 are closed, the air pressure disappears, and the self-sealing disc 36 is reset under the action of the spring, preventing the water in the separation tank 11 from entering the aeration pipe 19.
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the separator 11 is also equipped with a spiral disc 16, which floats on the water surface of the separator 11. The diameter of the spiral disc 16 is the same as the inner diameter of the separator 11. A photoelectric switch 29 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the center of the spiral disc 16. A funnel 8 is connected to the lower part of the center of the spiral disc 16. A sludge pipe 13 is also fixedly connected to the upper part of the separator 11. The sludge pipe 13 is under negative pressure. A sludge valve 28 is also provided on the sludge pipe 13. The sludge pipe 13 is connected to the discharge port of the funnel 8 through a flexible hose.
[0029] When the separation motor 12 rotates, the dirt floating on the water surface rotates in the water body. Following the rotation direction of the spiral disk 16, the dirt moves towards the feed inlet of the central funnel 8 of the spiral disk 16. When the photoelectric switch 29 detects that the dirt has reached this point, the sludge valve 28 opens, and the dirt floating on the water surface is sucked into the sludge pipe 13 and discharged from the separation tank 11.
[0030] The upper part of the clean water tank 24 is fixedly connected to a disinfection pipe 25, and a disinfection valve 26 is provided on the disinfection pipe 25. The disinfection valve 26 is used to close and open the disinfection pipe 25 and add disinfectant into the clean water tank 24. A clean water tank level gauge 31 is also provided at the bottom of the clean water tank 24. The clean water tank level gauge 31 is used to detect the liquid level in the clean water tank 24. A water outlet pipe 6 is also connected to the bottom of the clean water tank 24. A water outlet motor 27 is provided on the water outlet pipe 6. The water outlet motor 27 is used to pump clean water out of the clean water tank 24. When the water level in the clean water tank 24 reaches the set height, the water outlet motor 27 starts and pumps the water in the clean water tank 24 to the next sewage treatment process.
