[0021] The utility model provides an oxygen-free carbonization and cracking device, which can relatively completely carbonize and crack a diaphragm and can reduce the carbonization time.
[0022] Figure 1 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the oxygen-free carbonization cracking equipment provided by the embodiment of the utility model. Figure 1As shown, the oxygen-free carbonization cracking device provided in this embodiment includes a housing chamber 10, in which a heating device 21, a feeding device 30 and a rotating conveying device 40 are arranged. The feeding device 30 and the rotating conveying device 40 are arranged in sequence. A feed port 11 is provided at a position corresponding to the feeding device 30 on the housing chamber 10, and a discharge port 12 and a smoke exhaust port 13 are provided at the other end of the housing chamber 10 opposite to the feed port 11. The rotating conveying device 40 includes a rotating shaft 41, a connecting rod 42 and a pushing plate 43 for pushing materials in the direction of the discharge port 12. There are multiple connecting rods 42, one end of each connecting rod 42 is connected to the rotating shaft 41, and the other end extends in a direction away from the rotating shaft 41. The multiple connecting rods 42 are arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 41, and the pushing plate 43 is provided on the end of the connecting rod 42 away from the rotating shaft 41. An angle is formed between the plane where the pushing plate 43 is located and the axis of the rotating shaft 41.
[0023] In this embodiment, by setting the feeding device 30 and the rotating conveying device 40, when recycling lithium batteries, the protective gas is first filled into the accommodating chamber 10, and then the raw materials are fed into the feeding device 30 from the feed port 11, and the feeding device 30 feeds the raw materials into the rotating conveying device 40. Since the rotating conveying device 40 is provided with a connecting rod 42 and a pushing plate 43, when the raw materials are conveyed, the connecting rod 42 located in the middle of the accommodating chamber 10 can stir and flip the raw materials, and the pushing plate 43 located around the accommodating chamber 10 can push the raw materials to move to the position of the discharge port 12 due to its relative tilt setting with the rotating shaft. While flipping and moving, the heating device 21 heats the raw materials to make them oxygen-free carbonized. The raw materials that have been oxygen-free carbonized are discharged from the discharge port 12, and the smoke after oxygen-free carbonization is discharged from the exhaust port 13 to complete the processing of the raw materials.
[0024] Since the rotating conveying device 40 continuously stirs and turns the raw materials during the entire processing process, the organic matter in the lithium battery crushed material can be carbonized and cracked more completely and at a faster speed.
[0025] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the length of the accommodating chamber 10 may be 7-10 m, and the time that the raw material stays in the accommodating chamber 10 is 40-50 min.
[0026] Furthermore, in this embodiment, on the rotating shaft 41, the connecting rods 42 are arranged in groups of two at intervals. In the same group of connecting rods 42, the two connecting rods 42 are respectively arranged on both sides of the rotating shaft 41, and the axes of the two connecting rods 42 are located on the same straight line. The extension directions of the axes of the two adjacent groups of connecting rods 42 are perpendicular to each other. Through the above-mentioned arrangement, the material can be better stirred and turned. The axis of the connecting rod 42 is located on the plane where the push plate 43 connected to the connecting rod 42 is located. On the two connecting rods 42 in the same group, an angle is formed between the planes where the two connected push plates 43 are located. Further, the angle formed between the plane where the push plate 43 is located and the axis of the rotating shaft 41 is 40-45°.

In this embodiment, the fixing columns 50 are fixed to the top of the accommodating chamber, that is, the rotating shaft 41 is suspended on the fixing columns 50. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the fixing columns 50 can also be fixed to the bottom of the accommodating chamber, and the rotating shaft 41 is supported on the fixing columns 50.
[0028] A temperature sensor 22 for detecting the temperature of the accommodating chamber 10 and / or an oxygen content sensor 23 for detecting the oxygen content in the accommodating chamber 10 are also disposed on the fixing column 50 .
[0029] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the above-mentioned heating device 21 can be segmented, and multiple segments of heating devices 21 are sequentially arranged in the accommodating chamber 10, and each segment of the heating device 21 can correspond to a temperature sensor 22, so that the temperature in the accommodating chamber 10 is more stable. In this embodiment, the temperature in the accommodating chamber 10 can be 400-450°C.
[0030] A first driving device 44 is provided at one end of the accommodating chamber 10, and the first driving device 44 is connected to the rotating shaft 41 of the rotating conveying device 40 to drive the rotating shaft 41 to rotate. A first positive pressure atmosphere protection chamber 45 is also provided at the junction of the rotating shaft 41 and the accommodating chamber 10, and the pressure of the gas in the first positive pressure atmosphere protection chamber 45 is greater than the pressure of the gas in the accommodating chamber 10. During operation, by supplementing the protective gas, such as nitrogen, in the first positive pressure atmosphere protection chamber 45, the pressure in the first positive pressure atmosphere protection chamber 45 is always greater than the pressure of the gas in the accommodating chamber 10, which can ensure the sealing performance of the junction of the rotating shaft 41 and the accommodating chamber 10.
[0031] A heat-insulating layer 14 may be disposed outside the accommodating cavity 10 .

[0034] Furthermore, in order to ensure the sealing performance and facilitate the exhaust of smoke, the pressure of the protective gas in the accommodating chamber 10 is higher than the external air pressure, and an exhaust device (not shown) is also provided at the exhaust port 13 to ensure that the smoke can be continuously discharged from the accommodating chamber 10. A filter 131 is also provided at the exhaust port 13 to filter the smoke.
[0035] A clearing nozzle 132 is also provided at the smoke outlet 13, and the clearing nozzle is connected to the interlayer of the filter screen 131.

When the air permeability of the filter screen 131 is reduced to a set air volume value, protective gas is filled into the interlayer of the filter screen 131 from the clearing nozzle 132 to clear the filter screen 131.
[0036] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the discharge port 12 is located below the accommodating chamber 10. When the rotating conveying device 40 transports the anaerobic carbonized raw materials to the discharge port 12, the anaerobic carbonized raw materials are discharged from the accommodating chamber 10 by gravity and enter the next recovery process.
[0037] In summary, in the present invention, through the arrangement of the feeding device 30 and the rotating conveying device 40, when recycling lithium batteries, the raw materials are first fed into the feeding device 30 from the feed port 11, and the feeding device 30 feeds the raw materials into the rotating conveying device 40. Since the rotating conveying device 40 is provided with a connecting rod 42 and a pushing plate 43, when conveying the raw materials, the connecting rod 42 located in the middle of the accommodating chamber 10 can stir and flip the raw materials, and the pushing plate 43 located around the accommodating chamber 10 can push the raw materials to move to the position of the discharge port 12. While flipping and moving, the heating device 21 heats the raw materials to make them oxygen-free carbonized.
