Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of membrane separation, in particular to a hollow fiber membrane component. Background Art
[0002] Membrane separation technology is a high-tech technology widely used in liquid or gas separation, concentration, and purification. It uses membranes as media and membrane modules as units to achieve the separation process. Hollow fiber membrane modules are commonly used membrane module types. They are devices composed of hollow fiber membranes installed in a shell. The outer shell of the membrane module is composed of a cylinder, a head, an end cover and a sealing structure. The cylinder and the head are bonded together by sealant. Multiple hollow fiber membranes are installed in the outer shell of the membrane module. The two ends of the hollow fiber membranes are bonded and sealed to the inner wall of the head with adhesive. The end cover and the head are sealed through a sealing structure to form a membrane module.
[0003] The adhesive between the head of the membrane assembly shell and the hollow fiber membrane is often epoxy resin, polyurethane, etc. The thermal expansion coefficients of the head and the adhesive material are different. When there is a large difference between the feed temperature and the ambient temperature during the use of the membrane assembly, if there is frequent startup and shutdown, due to the effect of thermal expansion and contraction, cracks are likely to appear at the bonding position, causing the adhesive to detach from the head, thereby causing the membrane assembly to leak and affect the membrane separation effect. Under the condition that the adhesive and the membrane assembly head material are fixed, increasing the roughness of the inner wall of the head is a common technical means to solve the above problems. On the other hand, it is necessary to protect the hollow fiber membrane from being affected by the roughness of the inner wall of the head when it is filled into the membrane assembly shell. In the prior art, a number of radial or axial grooves are set on the inner wall of the head of the membrane assembly shell. The axial groove still has the situation that the adhesive is in direct contact with the smooth inner wall of the head, and the problem of the adhesive detaching from the head cannot be effectively solved. The cross-section of the radial groove is U-shaped or V-shaped. When the shrinkage rate of the adhesive is significantly less than that of the head material during thermal expansion and contraction, the adhesive is still easy to detach from the groove, and there is a situation that the adhesive detaches from the membrane shell and the membrane assembly leaks.
[0004] In summary, the present invention provides a hollow fiber membrane component to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] A hollow fiber membrane assembly comprises a cylinder body, with a head body being arranged on both sides of the cylinder body, the cylinder body and the head body being bonded to each other by an adhesive, a clamp being arranged on the surface of the head body and a gasket being arranged in the inner cavity, an end cover body being arranged on the side of the head body away from the cylinder body, threads being arranged on the surface of the head body and the inner cavity of the end cover body, one side of the head body extending to the inner cavity of the end cover body and being threadedly connected to the inner cavity of the end cover body, a plurality of annular trapezoidal grooves being radially opened in the inner cavity of the head body close to the end cover body, the inner cavity of the cylinder body being equipped with a plurality of hollow fiber membranes, and the hollow fiber membranes being sealed and fixed to the inner wall of the head body by an adhesive.
[0007] Furthermore, in the present invention, the cross-sectional structure of the plurality of annular trapezoidal grooves is a trapezoid, and the width of the bottom of the inner cavity of the trapezoidal groove is longer than the width of the opening of the trapezoidal groove.
[0008] Furthermore, in the present invention, a plurality of the annular trapezoidal grooves are spaced apart from each other, and two adjacent annular trapezoidal grooves do not intersect with each other.
[0009] Furthermore, in the utility model, the opening width of the annular trapezoidal groove is smaller than the wall thickness of the head body, and the bottom width of the annular trapezoidal groove is smaller than the wall thickness of the head body, and the depth of the annular trapezoidal groove is smaller than the wall thickness of the head body.
[0010] Furthermore, in the utility model, the inner cavity of the head body is provided with a sealing structure, and the sealing structure includes a connecting portion of the head body, a connecting portion of the end cover body and a sealing fastener fixed to the surface of the head body.
[0011] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The utility model is used to form the main body of the equipment by arranging a cylinder body, a head body and an end cover body. Since the cross-section of the radial annular trapezoidal groove is trapezoidal and the opening is narrower than the bottom, when the adhesive is used to encapsulate the hollow fiber membrane, the solidified adhesive is not easy to fall off from the inside of the trapezoidal groove, thereby improving the stability of the hollow fiber membrane encapsulation and preventing the membrane from leaking.
