[0018] The structure of the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2A rotary vacuum filter comprises a frame 10, a shell 20, a drum 30, a drum drive motor 40 and a discharge device 50. The shell is sealed and arranged. The shell is located on the frame. A feed port 29 is provided on the shell. A rotating shaft 31 is provided at both ends of the drum 30. The drum is arranged in the shell through the rotating shaft. The drum is driven by the drum drive motor to rotate in the shell. A filter cloth support 60 is provided on the drum. A filter cloth 61 is provided on the filter cloth support. A tube array 70 connected to the drum is provided in the drum. The tube array outlet is located in the rotating shaft. A distribution head 21 is fixedly provided on the shell 20. The distribution head can also be provided on the frame. One or more distribution pipes 22 connected to the tube array are provided outside the distribution head. The rotating shaft is sealed and rotatably connected with the distribution head. The distribution pipe 22 includes a filtrate outlet 221. A first vacuum pump is provided on the filtrate outlet. A filter cake outlet 23 is provided in the shell 20. In this embodiment, the shell 20 includes a lower shell 201 and an upper shell 202. The lower shell and the upper shell form a sealed cavity. The rotating shafts at both ends of the drum are connected to the frame through bearings 11. The drum driving motor is located at one end of the rotating shaft. The drum driving motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, and the outlet of the tube array is located inside the other end of the rotating shaft. A wear-resistant disc 311 is fixedly provided at one end of the rotating shaft 31, and the wear-resistant disc is rotatably sealed and connected to the inner side of the distribution head through a sealing ring. The rotary vacuum filter of the utility model feeds into the shell through the feed port, and the driving motor drives the drum to rotate. The filtrate enters the tube array, and the first vacuum pump extracts the filtrate from the filtrate outlet. While the filtrate is extracted, the filter residue forms a filter cake on the filter cloth, and then the filter cake can be back-blown to the filter cake outlet for collection by a discharging method of passing gas through a distribution pipe, so that the filter cake is easy to clean, and continuous filtration can be achieved, with high production efficiency.

[0020] In this embodiment, more than two tube arrays are evenly arranged with the drum as the center, and the tube arrays are connected to the drum through a connecting pipe. More than two tube arrays can be provided as needed to improve the filtration efficiency.

[0021] In this embodiment, a liquid storage bin 24 is provided at the bottom of the shell 20, and the bottom of the drum is located in the liquid storage bin. A washing area 25 and a drying area 26 are provided in sequence in the upper inner part of the shell 20 along the rotation direction of the drum. The washing area and the drying area are located above the liquid storage bin. The filter cake outlet is arranged corresponding to the bottom of the drying area. A filter cake washing port 27 is provided on the shell 20 corresponding to the washing area. The distribution pipe 22 also includes a washing liquid outlet 222 and a pre-drying gas-liquid outlet 223. The washing liquid outlet is provided with a second vacuum pump, and the pre-drying gas-liquid outlet is provided with a third vacuum pump. During filtration, the material to be filtered is introduced into the liquid storage bin so that the bottom of the drum is immersed in the material. The first vacuum pump extracts the filtrate from the filtrate outlet, and the filter residue forms a filter cake on the filter cloth. When the drum rotates, the filter cake rotates to the washing area, and the filter cake washing port in the washing area sprays washing liquid to wash the filter cake. The second vacuum pump washes the washing liquid out from the washing liquid outlet through the array tubes, thereby removing impurities from the filter cake; the washed filter cake continues to rotate, and after being transferred to the drying area for drying, the third vacuum pump sucks the pre-dried gas and liquid out from the pre-dried gas and liquid outlet through the array tubes. In this embodiment, the distribution pipe 22 also includes a back-blowing unloading air inlet 224, and the unloading device 50 is a back-blowing unloading air inlet. After the filter cake is dried, back-blowing gas is introduced from the back-blowing unloading air inlet to blow the filter cake off the filter cloth to the filter cake outlet for collection.

[0022] In this embodiment, the unloading device 50 can also be a scraper 51, one end of the scraper is set corresponding to the bottom of the drum in the drying area, and the other end of the scraper is set corresponding to the filter cake outlet. During the rotation of the drum, when the dried filter cake passes through the scraper, the scraper scrapes the filter cake and drops it at the filter cake outlet for collection. In this embodiment, the scraper and the back-blowing unloading air inlet are unloaded at the same time, the unloading is efficient, the material performance is strong, and the life of the filter cloth can be increased. In specific implementation, the scraper and the back-blowing unloading air inlet can also be selected as needed to unload.

[0023] In this embodiment, the housing 20 is further provided with a filter cloth cleaning port 28, which is located between the drying area and the liquid storage bin. After unloading, the drum moves to the filter cloth cleaning area, and the filter cloth cleaning port sprays cleaning liquid to clean the filter cloth, and the cleaned liquid falls into the lower housing.

[0024] In this embodiment, a stirring device 241 is provided at the bottom of the liquid storage bin 24, and the stirring device 241 includes a stirring disk 2411 and a stirring motor for driving the stirring disk to rotate. The stirring motor drives the stirring disk to stir the material in the liquid storage bin to prevent solid precipitation in the material.

[0025] In this embodiment, an overflow port 242 is provided at the top of the liquid storage bin 24. When the material in the liquid storage bin reaches a predetermined height, the material flows out through the overflow port, thereby preventing the material in the liquid storage bin from entering the washing area.

[0026] In this embodiment, the housing 20 is provided with a gas replenishment port 2021, a pressure transmitter port 2022, a balance port 2023 and a sight glass port 2024. The gas replenishment port is used to replenish gas into the housing to maintain a certain vacuum degree in the housing, the pressure transmitter port is used to test the pressure in the housing, the balance port is used to adjust the pressure in the housing, and the sight glass port 2024 is used to observe the material condition in the housing.

[0027] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the shell 20 is provided with a heat tracing pipe 80, and the shell is provided with a high temperature air inlet 81 connected with the heat tracing pipe. The high temperature air inlet introduces high temperature gas into the heat tracing pipe to keep the inner wall of the shell at a certain temperature to prevent the material in the shell from solidifying.

[0028] The rotary vacuum filter of the utility model is divided into four areas in the shell, namely, the filtration area, the filter cake washing area, the drying area and the filter cloth washing area. The distribution head is divided into four distribution pipes, namely, the filtrate outlet, the washing liquid outlet, the pre-drying gas-liquid outlet and the back-blowing unloading air inlet, which can control the material filtration, filter cake washing, filter cake pre-drying and unloading respectively, and can adjust the control as needed to realize the circulation filtration of the material and reduce energy consumption. The utility model is suitable for the filtration of polyolefins, polyphenylene ether (PPO), polyphenylene ether (PPE), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), ABS, polyarylether (PAE), chlorosilane, bisphenol A, PTA, etc. The overall structural design is compact and reasonable, multifunctional, high in production efficiency, and energy-saving and emission-reducing.
