Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of butterfly separators, and in particular relates to an internal cooling drum of a disc separator. Background Art

[0002] The butterfly separator has a high separation factor and large production capacity. It can process highly dispersed liquid-liquid two-phase turbid liquids and liquid-solid two-phase suspensions with very low solid phase sedimentation velocity that are difficult to be effectively separated by general centrifugal separators, and can process liquid-liquid-solid three-phase mixtures. Therefore, it is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, food, petroleum, and bioengineering industries. Since the early days of butterfly separator development, its specifications and varieties are various, and the types of materials it processes are also various.

[0003] With the development of technology, the requirements for separators are getting higher and higher, especially with the rapid development of the biopharmaceutical industry. However, the separation of biological materials has high requirements for temperature, and generally requires low-temperature separation. The butterfly separator uses a high-speed rotation of the drum to achieve rapid separation of materials. The higher the drum speed, the greater the separation factor. In general, the larger the separation factor, the better the separation effect. Especially for materials that are difficult to separate, the separation effect is usually improved by increasing the speed. For the pharmaceutical industry, mycoplasmas, bacteriophages, etc. are often difficult to separate. The drum rotates at a high speed in the separator, and the friction with the surrounding air will generate heat, which will increase the temperature of the material that needs to be separated at low temperature. The higher the speed, the more heat is generated.

[0004] At present, most butterfly separators use a cover cooling structure to exchange heat for the separated materials, but the heat exchange effect of the cover is limited and the temperature control effect is poor, so it is necessary to directly cool the drum to achieve precise temperature control. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above problems, the main purpose of the utility model is to design an internal cooling drum for a disc separator, and to pass a cooling medium into the high-speed rotating drum body to ensure the temperature of the separated materials, thereby solving the technical problems of limited heat exchange effect and poor temperature control effect of the butterfly separator cover.

[0008] A pump chamber cover is arranged on the upper part of the drum cover, the pump chamber cover and the drum cover form a clear liquid chamber, and the pump chamber cover is locked on the upper part of the drum cover through a small locking ring.

[0009] As a further description of the present invention, the upper part and the lower part of the cooling interlayer are respectively sealed with the drum body through sealing members.

[0010] As a further description of the present invention, the lower portion of the drum cover and the upper inner side of the cooling interlayer are sealed by a seal.

The main locking ring 5 and the small locking ring 7 are designed with a special thread structure; in this embodiment, the special thread structure is a specially designed short-tooth serrated or short-tooth rectangular thread, which is a force-bearing thread. When the separator rotates at high speed, it is subjected to a large centrifugal force, and the short tooth design effectively prevents the thread from biting.

[0022] The cooling interlayer 2 is arranged inside the drum body 1, and the upper and lower parts of the cooling interlayer 2 are sealed with the drum body 1 by seals, the lower part of the drum cover 4 and the inner side of the upper part of the cooling interlayer 2 are sealed by seals, and the upper part of the drum cover 4 and the pump chamber cover 6 are sealed by seals. In this embodiment, the seal is set as a sealing ring, but is not limited to the form of sealing with a sealing ring.

[0023] More specifically, in this embodiment, the cooling interlayer 2 is consistent with the shape of the drum body 1, and a cooling channel 21 consistent with the shape of the drum body 1 is provided inside the cooling interlayer 2 to ensure the cooling effect inside the drum body 1; a cooling inlet is provided at the bottom of the cooling channel 21, and the cooling inlet is connected to the cooling water inlet hole at the bottom of the drum body 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, the cooling inlet is arranged at the bottom of the drum body 1, and is a hole-shaped hole indicated by a dotted line, which directly passes through the bottom of the cooling interlayer 2; a cooling outlet is arranged at the upper part of the cooling channel 21, and a channel 11 is arranged on the side wall of the drum body 1 corresponding to the cooling outlet, and a nozzle 3 is installed on the outside of the drum body 1 corresponding to the channel 11; the drum body 1 is internally cooled by a cooling medium, and the cooling medium enters the inside of the drum body 1 from the cooling inlet at the bottom of the drum body 1, and the bottom of the cooling interlayer 2 is a structure with a cooling channel 21, which facilitates the cooling medium to enter the cooling interlayer 2 from the bottom of the drum body 1, and the cooling outlet at the upper part of the cooling interlayer 2 is correspondingly connected to the channel 11 of the drum body 1, and the cooling medium passed into the inside of the drum body 1 flows out through the nozzle 3. The above-mentioned nozzle 3 is provided with a protective structure to prevent the leakage of the cooling medium, that is, a directional outlet is designed on the nozzle 3 to prevent the cooling medium from leaking to other positions. Specifically, the nozzle 3 structure is designed with a certain direction and a certain inner hole size, which can be designed according to the requirements of the cooling medium, the outlet direction, and the outlet flow rate, and is fixed in the corresponding flow channel 11 of the drum body 1 by a corresponding connection method.

[0025] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned cooling interlayer 2 and the drum body 1 adopt a unique positioning direction, and the direction is determined by positioning pins. In order to determine the unique direction, three positioning pins are generally set here, which are unevenly distributed. The angle may not be uniquely determined. Usually, according to production habits, it is divided into two 135° and 90°. It should be noted that the above-mentioned positioning direction methods include but are not limited to positioning the angle with positioning pins, and also include other positioning methods.
