Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery recycling, in particular to a device for filtering and removing impurities from waste battery electrolyte. Background Art

[0002] After waste lead-acid batteries are crushed, substances such as electrolyte, lead grids, and plastic sheets will be produced. Among them, the electrolyte in waste lead-acid batteries contains a large amount of sulfuric acid, which has strong corrosiveness. If not treated, it will cause serious damage to the environment. At the same time, the sulfuric acid in the electrolyte of waste lead-acid batteries can be recycled after filtration, and solid impurities in the electrolyte need to be removed after the electrolyte is recycled.

[0003] A patent document with the application number CN202223033736.8 discloses a device for filtering and removing impurities from waste battery electrolyte. When this electrolyte filtering and impurity removing device works, first, the waste electrolyte is injected into the first filtering box body through the feed pipe. Large particle impurities such as plastic sheets in the waste electrolyte will be filtered and left on the filter plate. After the filtration is completed, the first waste discharge pipe is opened to discharge the impurities on the filter plate; the substances filtered by the first filtering box body are transported to the inside of the second filtering box body through the first liquid delivery pipe. At this time, the telescopic cylinder moves downward, gradually moving the pressure filter plate downward, and pressure filtration is achieved during the movement. After the pressure filtration is completed, the fourth electric valve is opened. At this time, the second liquid delivery pipe is located above the pressure filter plate, and the filtered solution is discharged into the third filtering box body; when waste needs to be cleared, the pressure filter plate is moved above the waste clearing plate. At this time, the pressure filter plate is in contact with the top of the waste clearing plate, and the waste clearing cylinder is opened to move to the right, so that the impurities below the pressure filter plate and at the bottom of the second filtering box body can be discharged through the second waste discharge pipe. When filtering the electrolyte in the second filtering box body, it is necessary to make the pressure filter plate move downward and perform pressure filtration on the electrolyte in the second filtering box body. During the process of removing impurities from the electrolyte, it is not convenient to continuously remove impurities from the electrolyte, so the impurity removal efficiency of the electrolyte is low.

[0042] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments.

[0043] Embodiment 1: Refer to Figures 1 - 5 As shown, a device for filtering and removing impurities from the electrolyte of waste batteries includes a precipitation tank 1, and the precipitation tank 1 is communicated with a filter cylinder 9 through an upper suction pump 8.

[0044] A partition cylinder 4 is fixed in the precipitation tank 1. The lower end of the partition cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the precipitation tank 1. A precipitation chamber is formed between the partition cylinder 4 and the precipitation tank 1. An inlet pipe 2 and an outlet pipe 3 are fixed at the lower end of the precipitation tank 1. Both the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3 are communicated with the precipitation chamber. The inlet water pipe of the upper suction pump 8 extends into the partition cylinder 4.

[0045] The upper end of the filter cylinder 9 is detachably and fixedly sealed and connected with a cover plate. The lower end of the filter cylinder 9 is fixedly communicated with a lower suction pump 10.

[0046] A fixing rod 11 is fixed in the filter cylinder 9. A fixing ring 13 is fixed in the filter cylinder 9 above the fixing rod 11. An inner cylinder 14 is slidably and sealingly inserted into the filter cylinder 9 above the fixing ring 13. The fixing ring 13 limits the lower end of the inner cylinder 14. A plurality of hanging rings 17 are fixed at the upper end of the inner cylinder 14.

[0047] A lower filter screen 15 is fixed inside the lower end of the inner cylinder 14. An upper filter screen 16 is slidably and sealingly connected inside the upper end of the inner cylinder 14. A connecting rod 19 penetrates through the upper filter screen 16 and the lower filter screen 15. The connecting rod 19 is movably and sealingly connected with the lower filter screen 15. The lower end of the connecting rod 19 is threadedly connected with the fixing rod 11. The upper filter screen 16 is rotatably and sealingly connected with the connecting rod 19. Retaining rings 20 are threadedly connected to the connecting rod 19 above and below the upper filter screen 16.

[0048] A ring groove 12 is formed on the inner wall of the filter cylinder 9 outside the inner cylinder 14. The ring groove 12 is communicated with the outlet pipe of the upper suction pump 8. A plurality of through holes 18 are formed in the inner cylinder 14. The through holes 18 are communicated with the ring groove 12.

[0049] An inner rod 6 is fixed in the partition cylinder 4. The inner rod 6 is fixedly connected with the inlet water pipe of the upper suction pump 8. A liquid level sensor 7 is fixed at the lower end of the inner rod 6. The liquid level sensor 7 is electrically connected to the upper suction pump 8 and the lower suction pump 10 through a controller.

[0050] The recovered electrolyte enters the precipitation chamber through the inlet pipe 2. As the liquid level of the electrolyte in the precipitation chamber continuously rises, the electrolyte in the precipitation chamber enters the partition cylinder 4 after passing over the upper end of the partition cylinder 4. The electrolyte entering the precipitation chamber can precipitate in the precipitation chamber, which can reduce the impurity content of the electrolyte entering the filter cylinder 9, thereby reducing the working pressure of the lower filter screen 15 and improving the filtering and impurity removal efficiency of the electrolyte. Opening the outlet pipe 3 can discharge the precipitate in the precipitation chamber.

[0051] When the liquid level of the electrolyte in the partition cylinder 4 approaches the inner rod 6, the liquid level sensor 7 sends a signal to the controller, and the controller starts the upper liquid pumping pump 8 and the lower liquid pumping pump 10. The upper liquid pumping pump 8 pumps the electrolyte in the partition cylinder 4 through the annular groove 12 and the through hole 18 to between the upper filter screen 16 and the lower filter screen 15 of the inner cylinder 14. After the electrolyte is filtered by the lower filter screen 15, it is pumped out by the lower liquid pumping pump 10. The lower liquid pumping pump 10 can continuously filter and remove impurities from the electrolyte in the filter cylinder 9, improving the efficiency of filtering and removing impurities from the electrolyte.

[0052] When it is necessary to remove the impurities in the inner cylinder 14, open the cover plate, and use the lifting device to lift the inner cylinder 14 upward from the filter cylinder 9 through the lifting ring 17. When the inner cylinder 14 moves upward in the filter cylinder 9, since the connecting rod 19 is threadedly connected to the fixed rod 11. Therefore, the connecting rod 19 slides relative to the lower filter screen 15, and the upper filter screen 16 gradually approaches the lower filter screen 15. During the process of the upper filter screen 16 approaching the lower filter screen 15, the impurities in the inner cylinder 14 can be pressure-filtered. After pressure-filtering the impurities, the content of the electrolyte in the impurities can be reduced.

[0053] After the upper filter screen 16 and the lower filter screen 15 pressure-filter the impurities in the inner cylinder 14, rotate the connecting rod 19 to separate the connecting rod 19 from the fixed rod 11. Subsequently, the inner cylinder 14 can be pulled out of the filter cylinder 9. After the inner cylinder 14 is pulled out of the filter cylinder 9, the upper filter screen 16 and the lower filter screen 15 are separated, and then the impurities in the inner cylinder 14 can be removed.

[0054] After the inner cylinder 14 is pulled out of the filter cylinder 9, the upper filter screen 16 and the lower filter screen 15 are pulled out of the filter cylinder 9 together. After removing the retaining ring 20 above the upper filter screen 16, the upper filter screen 16 can be pulled out of the inner cylinder 14, which is convenient for dredging the upper filter screen 16 and the lower filter screen 15.

[0055] Embodiment 2: On the basis of Embodiment 1, referring to Figure 1 As shown, a filter ring 5 is fixedly installed inside the upper end of the precipitation chamber.

[0056] By providing the filter ring 5, the filter ring 5 can intercept the plastic impurities on the liquid surface of the electrolyte in the precipitation chamber, can prevent the plastic impurities from entering the upper liquid pumping pump 8, and can effectively protect the upper liquid pumping pump 8.
