Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a filter press assembly and a plate-frame filter press and a fully automatic plate-frame filter press, and belongs to the technical field of production and manufacturing of a plate-frame filter press assembly and a corresponding plate-frame filter press and a fully automatic plate-frame filter press. Background Art

[0002] Plate and frame filter press, also known as filter press, is a device used for solid-liquid separation of solid-liquid mixtures. Through the filter press, filter cakes formed by the solids in the solid-liquid mixture and filtrate composed of the liquid and filtrate in the solid-liquid mixture can be obtained.

[0003] The plate and frame filter press usually includes a frame, a clamping mechanism and a filter press assembly. The frame is a bed-type component composed of two load-bearing support rods and a front fixed end plate and a rear fixed end plate connected in series. The clamping mechanism consists of a cylinder and a movable clamping plate, wherein the cylinder is arranged on the tail plate, the movable clamping plate is arranged on one side of the tail plate and connected to the top rod of the cylinder, and the filter press assembly is arranged between the front fixed end plate and the movable clamping plate and can be tightly fitted with the front fixed end plate by the push of the movable clamping plate under the action of the cylinder. For the convenience of installation, the components that usually constitute the filter press assembly are also symmetrically provided with handles on the left and right sides of their respective exteriors for sliding them on the load-bearing support rods.

[0004] The main component of the filter press or the core component that plays the role of solid-liquid separation is the filter press assembly, which mainly includes a head plate, a tail plate, a plurality of filter frames arranged between the head plate and the tail plate, and an intermediate guide plate arranged between the filter frames; a hollow chamber for accumulating filter cakes is provided in the middle of the filter frame, and filter media for solid-liquid separation of solid-liquid mixtures, such as filter felt, filter cloth or filter paper, are provided on both sides. The filter medium and the hollow chamber constitute a filter chamber, and feed channels for injecting solid-liquid mixtures are provided at the upper and lower ends of one side, and a feed channel connecting the chamber is provided inside the feed channel, and channels for filtrate are provided at the upper and lower ends of the other side of the filter frame. The clear liquid flow channel flows through; the head plate, the tail plate and the middle guide plate are respectively provided with guide surfaces consistent with the circumference of the chamber on one side or both sides facing the filter frame, and the outer periphery of the guide surface is also provided with a sealing groove and a sealing ring embedded therein to prevent the solid-liquid mixture or filtrate from seeping out from the plate gaps during the filter pressing process; the head plate, the tail plate and the middle guide plate are respectively provided with guide surfaces consistent with the circumference of the chamber on one side or both sides facing the filter frame, and feed pipes corresponding to the feed flow channel are provided at the upper and lower ends of each one side, and clear liquid pipes corresponding to the clear liquid flow channel are provided at the upper and lower ends of each other side, and the clear liquid pipes are connected with the guide surface through the clear liquid collecting holes therein.

[0005] A solid-liquid mixture feed port and a filtrate outlet are provided at one end of the front fixed end plate of the filter press. The pressurized solid-liquid mixture enters the filter press assembly from the feed port and penetrates into the filter media on the front and rear sides of each filter frame under pressure to complete the filtration operation. Materials and liquids in the solid-liquid mixture with a particle size smaller than the pore size of the filter medium seep out from the filter medium into the guide surface, and then enter the clear liquid pipeline along the clear liquid collection hole on the middle guide plate, and finally gather at the filtrate outlet to flow out as filtrate. Solid materials with a particle size larger than the pore size of the filter medium are retained in the chamber of the filter frame and accumulated to become filter cakes.

[0006] When the filtration is finished, the oil cylinder retracts, the mobile pressing plate releases the pressure, the filter press assembly is disassembled, and the filter cake can be taken out from the filter frame; then the various components and filter media in the filter press assembly are rinsed clean, or new filter media are replaced, and the components of the filter press assembly are reassembled into a new filter press assembly. Then, under the action of the oil cylinder, the filter press frame is re-tightened by the mobile pressing plate, and a new round of filtration operation can be carried out.

[0007] With the advancement of technology, technicians in this field can build a fully automatic plate-frame filter press by adding an operating frame and setting a program-controlled manipulator operating system and an online automatic cleaning system on the operating frame. Then, the manipulator operating system and the online automatic cleaning system are associated with the clamping mechanism of the plate-frame filter press and its filter pressing assembly, thereby realizing programmed automatic control and automatic operation of the plate-frame filter press's feeding, filtration, cake unloading, flushing and other operating links. The whole process does not require human intervention (participation). At present, fully automatic plate-frame filter presses have been widely used in environmental protection, water treatment, mineral processing and chemical production, and have also been used in the production of beverages, beer and other food products.

[0008] However, in the prior art, due to Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the filter frame in the prior art, Figure 2 As shown in the schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the middle guide plate in the prior art, the inner wall of the chamber on the filter frame, and the inner wall of the guide surface of the head plate, the tail plate and the middle guide plate are all angular connecting surfaces (in the prior art, the guide surface of the head plate and the tail plate has the same Figure 2 The filter chamber pool shown has the same structure), and the feed channel and the clear liquid collection hole are both straight tube channels, which causes solids to accumulate at the edges and corners, making it difficult to rinse and unable to meet the requirements of automated online cleaning. Therefore, such equipment cannot meet the production needs of products with high hygiene requirements, nor can it meet the production needs of products with strict requirements on impurity content or that cross-mixing between batches cannot occur. For example, it cannot meet the safety requirements for its equipment in the production process of pharmaceutical products. Utility Model Content

[0060] The following specific embodiments may be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes therein may not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0061] The technical solution of the present utility model is described in detail below with specific embodiments.

[0062] Example 1

[0063] This embodiment provides a filter press assembly for obtaining a filter cake formed by solid-liquid separation of a solid-liquid mixture and a filtrate composed of liquid and filtrate in the solid-liquid mixture.

[0064] like Figure 3 A three-dimensional exploded structural diagram of components of a filter press assembly provided by an embodiment of the utility model is shown as follows:

[0065] A filter press assembly 100 includes a head plate 110, a tail plate 120, a plurality of filter frames 130 disposed between the head plate 110 and the tail plate 120, and an intermediate guide plate 140 disposed between the filter frames 130;

[0066] like Figure 4 A three-dimensional structural diagram of a filter frame of a filter press assembly provided in an embodiment of the utility model, Figure 5 A three-dimensional perspective structural diagram of a filter frame of a filter press assembly provided by an embodiment of the utility model is shown as follows:

[0067] The filter frame 130 has a chamber 131 for storing filter cakes in the middle thereof, and filter media (not shown in the figure) are also arranged on both sides of the filter frame 130. Feed channels 132 for injecting solid-liquid mixture are arranged at the upper and lower ends of one side of the chamber 131, and clear liquid channels 133 for filtrate to flow through are arranged at the upper and lower ends of the other side. A feed channel 134 communicating with the chamber 131 is also arranged inside the feed channel 132.

[0068] like Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the middle guide plate of a filter press assembly provided by an embodiment of the utility model, Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the perspective structure of the middle guide plate of a filter press assembly provided by an embodiment of the utility model is shown as follows (because the head plate and the side of the tail plate facing the filter frame have the same structure as the middle guide plate, for simplicity, the corresponding drawings are not provided in this embodiment):

[0069] The head plate 110, the tail plate 120 and the middle guide plate 140 are respectively provided with a guide surface 101 having the same circumference as the chamber 131 on one side or both sides facing the filter frame 130, and the upper and lower ends of one side of the guide surface 101 are provided with a feed pipe 102 corresponding to the feed flow channel 132, and the upper and lower ends of the other side are provided with a clear liquid pipe 103 corresponding to the clear liquid flow channel 133, and the clear liquid pipe 103 is communicated with the guide surface 101 through the clear liquid collection hole 104 therein, and the outer periphery of the guide surface 101 is provided with a sealing groove and a sealing ring 105 is embedded;

[0070] From the above attached Figures 3 to 7 It can be seen that:

[0071] The filter press assembly provided in this embodiment has a feed channel 134 and a clear liquid collection hole 104 that are both tapered pipes, the thick end of the tapered pipe is located on one side of the chamber 131 or the guide surface 101, and the thin end of the tapered pipe is located on one side of the feed channel 132 or the clear liquid pipe 103;

[0072] The inner side walls constituting the chamber 131 and the guide surface 101 are respectively smooth arc-shaped connecting surfaces, and a mountain-shaped ridge 135 is also provided on the inner side surface of the chamber 131 located at the bottom of the filter frame 130 .

[0073] It can be seen that:

[0074] The filter press component designed in this way has a smooth internal surface, solid materials are not easy to accumulate, it is easy to flush, and can meet the requirements of automatic online cleaning. Therefore, it can meet the production needs of products with strict requirements on impurity content or no cross-mixing between batches. That is, it can not only meet the solid-liquid separation needs of general products, but also meet the cleanliness and safety requirements of equipment in the production process of its products in the pharmaceutical field. It overcomes the shortcomings of the existing technology, expands its application field, can ensure the quality and safety of products, has substantial characteristics and progress, and therefore, has great promotion and application value.

[0075] Further, as an optimized design, the filter press assembly provided in this embodiment has:

[0076] The taper of the tapered pipe is 2 to 5 degrees, and the connection between the tapered pipe and the chamber or the guide surface and the feed flow channel or the clear liquid pipe is an arc connection;

[0077] The inner wall of the chamber 131 and the surface of the mountain-shaped ridge 135 each have a surface roughness of R a ≤0.8μm.

[0078] It can be seen that:

[0079] The feed channel and the clear liquid collection hole are designed as conical pipes, and the taper is further determined to be 2 to 5 degrees, and the connection with the chamber or the guide surface and the feed channel or the clear liquid pipe is required to be an arc connection. Not only from the processing technology, but also from the structural design, it is guaranteed that the filtrate of the filter press assembly can flow out completely and will not remain in the internal pipe of the filter press assembly, and the solid material is not easy to accumulate and is easy to flush, so as to better ensure the quality and safety of the product, and meet the filtration needs of products with strict requirements on product hygiene and batch, including those in the pharmaceutical field.

[0080] Furthermore, as an optimized design, the filter frame 130 can be designed with multiple feed channels 134 according to its size and thickness. When there is more than one feed channel 134, the feed channel 134 is radially connected to the chamber 131 with the feed channel 132 as the origin. In this way, the needs of rapid feeding of filter frames of different specifications and sizes can be met, and the needs of feed channel layout and cleaning can be met.

[0081] Furthermore, the filter frame 130 may be provided with an exhaust hole (not shown in the figure) at the top of the sealing ring 105 corresponding to the head plate 110, the tail plate 120 or the middle guide plate 140. In this way, when the filter press assembly is cleaned online, it can be ensured that the washing liquid or disinfecting liquid such as NaOH can completely enter various parts of the filter frame to achieve complete immersion of the filter frame, thereby avoiding the formation of an air control area above the inside of the filter frame, which makes it impossible for the washing liquid or disinfecting liquid to reach and reduces the cleaning or disinfection effect.

[0082] As an optional implementation, the filter press assembly provided in this embodiment, its filter frame 130 can be made of polypropylene or stainless steel material, wherein the filter frame 130 made of polypropylene material has a plate thickness of not less than 15 mm, and the filter frame 130 made of stainless steel material has a plate thickness of not less than 5 mm, so as to meet the strength requirements of the filter frame when working.

[0083] As an optional implementation, when the filter frame is made of stainless steel, the Chinese grade of the stainless steel should be 316L, because this kind of stainless steel has a chromium content of 16% to 18%, a nickel content of 10% to 14%, and a molybdenum content of 2% to 3%. It has excellent corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, and its tensile strength can reach more than 480Mpa, and it has good work hardening properties, which can meet the requirements of this embodiment for product cleanliness and online automatic cleaning.

[0084] As an optional implementation, when the filter frame is made of polypropylene material, the polypropylene material should comply with the relevant requirements of the FDA, that is, it must generally meet the following testing standards:

[0085] 1) US FDA21 CFR 177.1520- Extract content test standard;

[0086] 2) US FDA21 CFR 177.1520-Test standard for soluble matter content in xylene;

[0087] 3) US FDA21 CFR 177.1520-density (23°C) test standard;

[0088] 4) US FDA21 CFR 177.1520- Melting point test standard.

[0089] Example 2

[0090] This embodiment provides a plate and frame filter press prepared based on any one of the filter press components in the above-mentioned embodiment 1.
