[0025] The cylinder 1 is connected with an overflow pipe 9, a water outlet pipe 10, and a sand discharge pipe 11 which are tangential to the cylinder 1. The overflow pipe 9 is connected with the drainage chamber 2, the water outlet pipe 10 is connected with the separation chamber 3, and the sand discharge pipe 11 is connected with the sand discharge chamber 4. A three-chamber separation arrangement is adopted. The drainage chamber 2, the separation chamber 3, and the sand discharge chamber 4 are separated by separation baffles 5 and sand discharge baffles 6. The sand-water mixture enters the separation chamber 3 along the tangential water inlet of the sand washing cylinder 1 through the water outlet pipe 10. At this time, the water flow spirals upward, and a "shear zone" is formed at the interface between the upward and downward water flows. In this area, the flow velocity is zero, and the gravel with a larger specific gravity enters the sand discharge chamber 4 through the through hole 7 of the sand discharge baffle 6. The separated supernatant enters the drainage chamber 2 through the central cylinder 8, and finally flows out from the overflow pipe 9. There are no moving parts inside each cavity.

[0026] A regulating mechanism for adjusting and controlling the flow rate, residence time and pressure in the cavity is arranged in the through hole 7 .

[0027] The adjusting mechanism comprises a bolt bracket 12, a nut 13, an adjusting screw 14 and a lower cone plate 15. The bolt bracket 12 is fixed at the upper end of the cylinder 1, and the nut 13 is installed at the center of the screw bracket 12. The adjusting screw 14 is threadedly connected with the nut 13. The lower end of the adjusting screw 14 passes through the through hole 7 of the separation baffle 5 and the sand discharge baffle 6. The bottom end of the adjusting screw 14 is provided with a lower cone plate 15. A gap 16 for fluid to pass through is left between the lower cone plate 15 and the sand discharge baffle 6. The adjusting screw 14 is rotated to adjust the size of the gap between the lower cone 15 and the sand discharge baffle 6, thereby adjusting the fluid flow rate, that is, changing the residence time of the fluid in the corresponding cavity and the pressure in the cylinder.

[0028] A flange plate 17 is installed at the upper end of the cylinder 1, and a detachable top cover 18 is installed inside the flange plate 17. An outlet 19 for accommodating the top end of the adjusting screw 14 is opened on the top cover 18, so that the top cover 18 can be opened conveniently to inspect the cylinder 1 and turn the adjusting screw 14;

[0029] By rotating the adjusting screw 14 to control the distance between the lower cone plate 15 and the separation chamber and the sand discharge partition 6, the flow rate, the residence time and the pressure in the chamber are controlled to better remove organic matter on the surface of mud and sand and further concentrate the sand-water mixture.

[0030] A hand wheel 20 is provided at the top of the adjusting screw 14 , and the hand wheel 20 is located in the outlet 19 . The setting of the hand wheel 14 makes it easy to hold and turn the adjusting screw 14 .

[0031] The lower end of the sand discharge chamber 4 is conical, and the sand discharge pipe 11 is connected to the bottom end of the sand discharge chamber 4, which is easy to deposit and discharge sand.

[0032] Based on the above ideal embodiments of this application, the relevant staff can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this application through the above description.
