Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ceramic membrane models, and particularly relates to a model for increasing the packing area of a ceramic membrane. Background Art

[0002] A ceramic membrane is an asymmetric membrane, which is prepared from inorganic ceramic materials through a special process. It is divided into two types: tubular ceramic membranes and flat ceramic membranes. This product has high-performance characteristics and is developed through further technological innovation on the basis of fully introducing the German technology production process. At present, ceramic membranes have been widely used in many fields such as environmental protection, food, medicine, chemical engineering, and bioengineering.

[0003] Traditional ceramic membranes are usually flat or multi-channel tubular membranes, with low packing density of the membrane, small effective filtration area per unit volume, and low separation efficiency. In addition, ceramic membranes are brittle and often crack due to uneven stress during handling and installation, or deform and break due to the pressure difference inside and outside the membrane during the filtration process. Moreover, the filtration accuracy of ceramic membranes is small, the production and processing quality is poor, and the filtration effect is not good.

[0004] In view of the above situation, in order to overcome the above technical problems, the utility model designs a model for increasing the packing area of a ceramic membrane, and solves the above technical problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to disclose a model for increasing the packing area of a ceramic membrane, avoid unstable permeation flux, increase the separation efficiency of the membrane while increasing the packing area, enable it to perform material separation more effectively, and thus improve the separation performance of the membrane.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A model for increasing the packing area of a ceramic membrane provided by the utility model includes a support body and channels. The support body is axially provided with honeycomb-shaped channels, and the cross-sectional shape of the support body is hexagonal.

[0008] The hexagonal support body can increase the stability of the membrane, making it not easy to crack during handling and use, and can improve the separation efficiency of the membrane, enabling it to perform material separation more effectively. The pore structure of the support body can reduce the fluid resistance and increase the passing speed of the fluid, thereby improving the separation performance of the membrane. The hexagonal support body makes the ceramic membrane easier to operate during manufacturing and processing, improving the production efficiency. The honeycomb-shaped channels can increase the contact area of material separation, and the honeycomb-shaped channels can increase the external extrusion pressure, extending the service life of the ceramic membrane.

[0009] Preferably, the cross-sectional shape of the channel is a parallelogram, and all side lengths of the channel are equal.

[0010] Using a quadrilateral structure for the channel can save materials while enhancing the external extrusion force. Also, when using a quadrilateral, the contact area is increased, thereby improving the separation effect of the membrane on substances. The main function of using equal side lengths is to make the structure more stable. If the side lengths are not equal, the shapes of the channels will vary, resulting in an unstable structure of the support body, and different shapes will also reduce the separation efficiency of substances.

[0011] Preferably, chamfers are provided at each vertex of the parallelogram of the channel.

[0012] Setting chamfers at each vertex of the channel can reduce fluid resistance, make the fluid flow more easily, thereby improving the separation efficiency of substances, and also increasing the cleaning efficiency of the support body, avoiding the inability to remove substances in the gaps of the channel during cleaning.

[0013] Preferably, the distance between each side of the channel is the same, and the same distance between sides is collectively referred to as a.

[0014] Since the thickness between sides is the same, substances can be separated more evenly during the separation process, thereby improving the separation efficiency. This avoids different values of a resulting in different separation effects of the support body on substances, thereby reducing the quality of the separated substances.

[0015] Preferably, the side lengths of the outer channels are parallel to the side lengths of the support body, and the side lengths of the channels and the thickness of the outer surface of the support body are collectively referred to as b, and the length between thickness a and thickness b is the same.

[0016] The side lengths of the channels being parallel to the side lengths of the support body can increase the usable area of the support body, thereby increasing the filling area of the ceramic membrane, and further increasing the contact area between substances and the support body while improving the separation efficiency of substances. At the same time, using the same thickness for a and b can make the separation effects in all directions the same, thereby improving the uniform use of the thickness of each side and avoiding different use efficiencies of each surface due to different thicknesses, which affects the overall service life.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0018] 1. Using a quadrilateral structure for the channel can save materials while enhancing the external extrusion force. Also, when using a quadrilateral, the contact area is increased, thereby improving the separation effect of the membrane on substances.

[0019] 2. Chamfers are provided at the respective apex angles of the channels, which can reduce fluid resistance, make the fluid flow more easily, thereby improving the separation efficiency of substances, and also increase the cleaning efficiency of the support, avoiding the inability to remove substances in the gaps of the channels during cleaning.

[0020] 3. At the same time, the thickness a and the thickness b are the same, which can make the separation effect of substances the same in all directions, thereby improving the uniform use of the thickness of each side and increasing the service life. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0026] In order to better understand the above technical solutions, the following will describe the above technical solutions in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the specification and specific embodiments.

[0027] The purpose of the present invention is to disclose a model for increasing the packing area of a ceramic membrane, avoiding unstable permeation flux, and facilitating cleaning of both sides during cleaning, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0028] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0029] Such as Figure 1 and 3As shown in the figure, a model for increasing the packing area of a ceramic membrane provided by the present utility model includes a support body 1 and a channel 2. The support body 1 is axially provided with a honeycomb-shaped channel 2. The honeycomb-shaped channel 2 can increase the contact area of material separation, and the honeycomb-shaped channel 2 can increase the external extrusion pressure, improving the service time of the ceramic membrane. The cross-sectional shape of the support body 1 is a hexagon. The hexagonal support body 1 can increase the stability of the membrane, making it not easy to break during use, and can improve the separation efficiency of the membrane, enabling it to separate substances more effectively. The pore structure of the support body 1 can reduce the fluid resistance and increase the passing speed of the fluid, thereby improving the separation performance of the membrane. The hexagonal support body 1 makes the ceramic membrane easier to operate during manufacturing and processing, improving production efficiency.

[0030] As Figure 1 and 2 shown in the figure, the cross-sectional shape of the channel 2 is a parallelogram. Using a quadrilateral structure for the channel 2 can save materials while enhancing the external extrusion pressure, and using a quadrilateral also increases the contact area, thereby improving the separation effect of the membrane on substances. Moreover, the side lengths of the channel 2 are all equal. The main function of using equal side lengths is to make the structure more stable. If the side lengths are not equal, it will cause the shapes of the channels 2 to vary, resulting in an unstable structure of the support body 1 and also reducing the separation efficiency of substances.

[0031] As Figure 1 and 2 shown in the figure, chamfers 21 are provided at each vertex of the parallelogram of the channel 2. This can reduce the fluid resistance, make the fluid flow more easily, thereby improving the separation efficiency of substances, and also increase the cleaning efficiency of the support body 1, avoiding the inability to remove substances in the gaps of the channel 2 during cleaning.

[0032] As Figure 2 shown in the figure, the distance between each side of the channel 2 is the same, and the same distance between sides is collectively referred to as a. Since the thickness between sides is the same, substances can be separated more evenly during separation, thereby improving the separation efficiency. This avoids different values of a resulting in different separation effects of the support body 1 on substances, thereby reducing the quality of the separated substances.

[0033] As Figure 2As shown, the side length of the peripheral channel 2 is parallel to the side length of the support body 1. The side length of the channel 2 being parallel to the side length of the support body 1 can increase the usable area of the support body 1, thereby improving the packing area of the ceramic membrane, and further increasing the contact area between the substance and the support body 1 while improving the separation efficiency of the substance. Moreover, the side length of the channel 2 and the thickness of the outer surface of the support body 1 are collectively referred to as b, and the length between the thickness a and the thickness b is the same. At the same time, the thickness a and the thickness b are made the same, which can make the separation effect of the substance in all directions the same, thereby improving the uniform use of the thickness of each side and avoiding the different use efficiencies of each surface due to different thicknesses, thus affecting the overall service life.

[0034] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the descriptions in the specification are only the preferred examples of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present invention claimed. The scope of protection claimed by the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
