Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of salt production, and particularly relates to an iodine addition device for salt production. Background Art
[0002] In order to prevent the occurrence of iodine deficiency disorders, usually ordinary salt is used as a carrier, and a small amount of potassium iodate or other iodine-containing substances are added and stirred evenly to make an iodine-containing salt product. The existing iodine addition method is usually to directly stir and mix a certain amount of prepared iodine solution with a certain amount of dried salt. However, existing salt products, especially crushed and washed salt products, will more or less entrain some dust during the drying process, resulting in a dull color of the salt products; at the same time, due to the presence of dust, it will have a certain impact on the accuracy of iodine addition and mixing. The added iodine cannot be evenly attached to the surface of salt particles, but partially adheres to the dust, resulting in low accuracy and uniformity of iodine addition, and a large fluctuation range of iodine content in the obtained salt products; in addition, the existing iodine addition device has a complex structure, a high equipment investment cost, inconvenient operation, and multiple high-power motors are equipped to evenly mix salt and iodine solution, resulting in high energy consumption and high production costs. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of this, to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides an iodine addition device for salt production. Through a reasonable structural design, the salt is pre-treated by an iodine addition pre-treatment unit, and the atomized cleaning liquid cools, moistens the salt and dissolves the dust and impurities on the surface of the salt, thoroughly cleaning it, making the salt product crystal clear and shiny, improving the product quality; then it enters the iodine addition unit, and the added iodine can be evenly attached to the salt particles, effectively improving the accuracy and uniformity of iodine addition, reducing the fluctuation range of iodine content in the salt products; in addition, a structure integrating feeding and mixing is adopted, with low investment cost, convenient operation and low energy consumption.
[0004] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the utility model is realized as follows:
[0005] An iodine addition device for salt production, comprising:
[0006] An iodine addition pre-treatment unit, including a first material bin, a first feeding and mixing machine and a cleaning system; the discharging end of the first material bin is connected to the feeding end of the first feeding and mixing machine; the cleaning system sprays atomized cleaning liquid into the inner cavity of the first feeding and mixing machine;
[0007] An iodine addition unit, including a second material bin, a second feeding and mixing machine and an iodine addition system; the feeding end of the second material bin is connected to the discharging end of the first feeding and mixing machine, and the discharging end of the second material bin is connected to the feeding end of the second feeding and mixing machine; the iodine addition system sprays iodine solution into the inner cavity of the second feeding and mixing machine.
[0008] The salt first enters into the first feeding and mixing machine, where it is sprayed with the atomized cleaning liquid, causing the salt to cool down, become moist, and dissolve the dust and impurities on the surface of the salt, achieving thorough cleaning, making the produced salt product crystal clear and shiny; then it enters into the second feeding and mixing machine, where it is sprayed with iodine solution. Since the dust has been removed, the added iodine can be evenly attached to the salt particles, which is more conducive to improving the accuracy and uniformity of iodine addition and narrowing the fluctuation range of iodine content in the salt products.
[0009] Further, level gauges are provided on both the first bin and the second bin.
[0010] Further, both the first feeding and mixing machine and the second feeding and mixing machine include a housing, a baffle with a material passing port arranged in the inner cavity of the housing, a quantitative metering feeding section arranged in front of the baffle, and a mixing section arranged behind the baffle; spiral blades are provided in both the quantitative metering feeding section and the mixing section. The quantitative metering feeding section is a tube spiral structure, and the mixing section is a U-shaped spiral structure; the discharge end of the first bin is connected to the feeding port of the quantitative metering feeding section of the first feeding and mixing machine, and the cleaning system sprays atomized cleaning liquid into the inner cavity of the mixing section of the first feeding and mixing machine; the feeding end of the second bin is connected to the discharge port of the mixing section of the first feeding and mixing machine, the discharge end of the second bin is connected to the feeding port of the quantitative metering feeding section of the second feeding and mixing machine, and the iodine addition system sprays iodine solution into the inner cavity of the mixing section of the second feeding and mixing machine.
[0011] Both the first feeding and mixing machine and the second feeding and mixing machine are of an integrated feeding and mixing structure, with low investment cost, convenient operation, and low energy consumption; the tube spiral structure of the quantitative metering feeding section allows the salt to be almost full in it, playing the role of quantitatively metering the salt and feeding it into the mixing section. The U-shaped spiral structure of the mixing section has a relatively large diameter and a large space, which can scatter the incoming salt, and can fully shake and mix the sprayed cleaning liquid or iodine solution, playing the role of full stirring;
[0012] Due to the differences between the tube spiral structure and the U-shaped spiral structure, the material quantities they can hold are different, causing the salt to be scattered in the mixing section after being quantitatively metered in the quantitative metering feeding section, making the cleaning liquid spray more evenly onto the salt and being fully stirred and mixed with the atomized cleaning liquid; the cleaned salt is sent into the second feeding and mixing machine, and after being quantitatively metered by the quantitative metering feeding section of the second feeding and mixing machine, it is sent into the mixing section of the second feeding and mixing machine. Similarly, due to the differences between the tube spiral structure and the U-shaped spiral structure, the salt is scattered in the mixing section after being quantitatively metered in the quantitative metering feeding section, making the iodine solution spray more evenly onto the salt particles and being fully stirred and mixed with the iodine solution.
[0013] Furthermore, the driving motors of the feeding and mixing integrated machine 1 and the feeding and mixing integrated machine 2 are both arranged at the end of their respective mixing sections, and the quantitative metering feeding section and the mixing section share a driving motor, which simplifies the structure and reduces energy consumption.
[0014] Furthermore, the diameter of the U-shaped spiral structure of the mixing section is 1 to 3 levels larger than the diameter of the tube spiral structure of the quantitative metering feeding section; the length ratio of the quantitative metering feeding section and the mixing section is 1:1 to 5; the diameter of the feed port of the baffle is the same as the inner diameter of the tube spiral of the quantitative metering feeding section.
[0015] The diameter of the U-shaped spiral structure of the mixing section is 1 to 3 levels larger than the diameter of the tube spiral structure of the quantitative metering feeding section. The length ratio of the quantitative metering feeding section to the mixing section is 1:1 to 5. The quantitative metering feeding section and the mixing section are separated by a baffle with a feeding port. The quantitative metering of the salt can be achieved first, and then the quantitatively measured salt enters the mixing section with a larger spatial structure with a reasonable proportion range to be fully stirred and mixed.
[0016] Furthermore, the front section of the mixing section of the feeding and mixing integrated machine is provided with a cleaning chamber connected to its inner cavity; the cleaning liquid spraying end of the cleaning system is connected to the inner cavity of the cleaning chamber.
[0017] Furthermore, the cleaning system includes a cleaning liquid tank, an atomizing nozzle, a cleaning liquid pipe connecting the cleaning liquid tank and the atomizing nozzle, and a cleaning liquid metering pump arranged on the cleaning liquid pipe; the atomizing nozzle is arranged in the cleaning room.
[0018] The cleaning liquid is sent into the atomizing nozzle by the cleaning liquid metering pump, sprayed out after atomization, falls into the inner cavity of the mixing section through the cleaning chamber, and sprays onto the salt in the mixing section, cooling and moistening the salt and dissolving the dust and impurities on the surface of the salt to fully clean it.
[0019] Furthermore, the front section of the mixing section of the second feeding and mixing integrated machine is provided with an iodine adding chamber connected to its inner cavity; the iodine liquid spraying end of the iodine adding system is connected to the inner cavity of the iodine adding chamber.
[0020] Furthermore, the iodine addition system includes an iodine liquid tank, an iodine addition nozzle, an iodine liquid pipe connecting the iodine liquid tank and the iodine addition nozzle, and an iodine liquid metering pump arranged on the iodine liquid pipe; the iodine addition nozzle is arranged in the iodine addition chamber.
[0021] The iodine liquid is fed into the iodine adding nozzle by the iodine liquid metering pump, sprayed out after being atomized, falls into the inner cavity of the mixing section through the iodine adding chamber, and sprays onto the salt in the mixing section to evenly add iodine to the salt.
[0022] Furthermore, the material discharge port of the mixing section is arranged at the lower side of the tail portion thereof, and a material detection port is arranged at the upper side of the tail portion of the mixing section.
[0023] The level gauge of bin 1 is interlocked with the drive motor of the feeding and mixing machine 1 and the cleaning liquid metering pump of the cleaning system. When the level in bin 1 is high, the drive motor of the feeding and mixing machine 1 and the cleaning liquid metering pump of the cleaning system can be started simultaneously. When the level in bin 1 is low, the drive motor of the feeding and mixing machine 1 and the cleaning liquid metering pump of the cleaning system can be closed simultaneously. The level gauge of bin 2 is interlocked with the drive motor of the feeding and mixing machine 2 and the iodine liquid metering pump of the iodine addition system. When the level in bin 2 is high, the drive motor of the feeding and mixing machine 2 and the iodine liquid metering pump of the iodine addition system can be started simultaneously. When the level in bin 2 is low, the drive motor of the feeding and mixing machine 2 and the iodine liquid metering pump of the iodine addition system can be closed simultaneously.
