Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of lithium hexafluorophosphate production equipment, and particularly relates to a lithium hexafluorophosphate filling device. Background Technique

[0002] Lithium hexafluorophosphate has always been the most important electrolyte lithium salt used in commercial lithium batteries. At present, the preparation method of lithium hexafluorophosphate is to first rectify and purify anhydrous hydrogen fluoride to obtain high-purity anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, then dissolve lithium fluoride in high-purity anhydrous hydrogen fluoride to obtain an anhydrous hydrogen fluoride solution containing lithium fluoride, and then add phosphorus pentachloride to prepare a saturated solution of lithium hexafluorophosphate. Finally, the saturated solution of lithium hexafluorophosphate is subjected to low-temperature crystallization, solidification separation, drying, and pulverization packaging to obtain lithium hexafluorophosphate products.

[0003] In order to facilitate transportation, the crystallized lithium hexafluorophosphate is usually filled into a storage tank for transportation. At present, the conventional method is to directly insert a filling pipe into the storage tank for filling. However, lithium hexafluorophosphate decomposes rapidly due to the action of water vapor when exposed to air, releasing PF 5 and generating white smoke, resulting in waste of lithium hexafluorophosphate and reduction of quality. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a lithium hexafluorophosphate filling device.

[0005] The technical solution of the lithium hexafluorophosphate filling device of the utility model is as follows:

The box body includes a cylindrical section and a conical section integrally formed at the lower end of the cylindrical section. The discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the center position at the lower end of the conical section.

[0009] Further, a plurality of support legs are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the conical section.

[0010] Further, the lower end of the discharge pipe is in a conical structure inclined towards the filling pipe. The central axis extends into the discharge pipe. A discharge auger is provided on the central axis in the discharge pipe. The rotation direction of the discharge auger is opposite to that of the turning auger.

[0011] Further, the cylinder body of the telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first hard pipe section through a first fixing plate, and the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second hard pipe section through a second fixing plate.

The driving motor is started, and the driving motor drives the stirring shaft to rotate. The stirring rods on the stirring shaft stir the lithium hexafluorophosphate in the material box, avoiding the accumulation and compaction of the lithium hexafluorophosphate in the material box. The turning auger on the stirring shaft turns the lithium hexafluorophosphate at the bottom of the material box upward, avoiding the accumulation and compaction of lithium hexafluoroaluminate at the bottom of the material box. The tank opening of the storage tank is placed under the filling pipe.
