Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of rare earth smelting, separation, production and processing, and relates to a structure-strengthened oil-water separator. Background Art

[0002] In the production and processing of rare earth smelting and separation, there is a process of separating the oil phase with a lower density and the water phase with a higher density. At present, oil-water separation equipment is mostly used to realize the separation operation of the water phase and the oil phase.

[0003] In the existing oil-water separation equipment, the oil-water separation is mostly carried out by the way of overflow, and the height of the overflow is usually not adjustable. When the oil phase is too high, the overflow height cannot be effectively reduced to increase the discharge rate of the oil phase. In addition, when the separated water phase fluctuates in the existing oil-water separation equipment, it causes a greater impact on the side wall of the oil-water separation equipment. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a structure-strengthened oil-water separator with adjustable overflow height and effectively reducing the impact of the water phase on the side wall.

[0005] The technical scheme adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A structure-strengthened oil-water separator includes a box body, a sliding plate and a driving mechanism. The box body includes a first side and a second side. A first baffle is connected to the top wall of the box body and extends to the lower inner part of the box body. An oil-water mixing space is formed between the first baffle and the first side. A second baffle is connected to the bottom wall of the box body and extends to the upper inner part of the box body. An aqueous phase overflow space is formed between the second baffle and the first baffle. An aqueous phase storage space is formed between the second baffle and the second side. An overflow port is arranged on the first side, and a drain port is arranged on the second side. A plurality of rows of flow disturbance plates are arranged at intervals in the aqueous phase storage space. Each row of the flow disturbance plates is provided with a plurality of through holes. The sliding plate is vertically slidably arranged on the first side to block part or all of the overflow port. The driving mechanism is suitable for driving the sliding plate to slide vertically.

[0007] Furthermore, a grid-shaped reinforcing plate is arranged on the outer side wall of the box body.

[0008] Furthermore, the grid-shaped reinforcing plate is welded to the outer side wall of the box body.

[0009] Furthermore, the flow disturbance plate includes a plurality of first through holes arranged at intervals in the upper part and second through holes in the bottom part.

[0010] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder.

[0011] Furthermore, the number of the overflow ports is multiple and they are all at the same height.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0013] The oil-water separator of the present utility model includes a box body, a slide plate and a driving mechanism. When the oil-water separation is carried out normally, the mixed solution enters the oil-water mixing space. Under the water-phase overflow action of the second baffle, the oil layer can cover the overflow ports on the first side of the box body. At this time, the oil phase can be separated through the overflow ports. Due to the shielding of the overflow ports by the slide plate, the driving mechanism is used to adjust the shielding of the overflow ports by the slide plate, so that the overflow height of the box body can be effectively adjusted. In addition, by arranging multiple rows of flow disturbance plates in the water-phase storage space of the box body, when the box body fluctuates, the impact of the water phase on the side wall of the box body can be effectively reduced under the blocking of the flow disturbance plates, thereby improving the service life of the entire oil-water separator.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model, that is, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present utility model described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0024] Therefore, the detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model provided in the drawings below is not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model claimed, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present utility model.

[0025] It should be noted that relational terms such as "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the statement "including one..." does not exclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the said element.

[0026] As described in the background art, in the production and processing of rare earth smelting and separation, there is a process of separating an oil phase with a lower density and an aqueous phase with a higher density. Currently, oil-water separation equipment is mostly used to achieve the separation operation of the aqueous phase and the oil phase. In existing oil-water separation equipment, the overflow method is mostly used for oil-water separation, and the height of the overflow is usually not adjustable. When the oil phase is too high, it is impossible to effectively reduce the overflow height and increase the discharge rate of the oil phase. In addition, when the separated aqueous phase fluctuates in existing oil-water separation equipment, it causes a greater impact on the side wall of the oil-water separation equipment.

[0027] Based on this, the inventor created a structure-reinforced oil-water separator of the present application to solve the above technical problems.

[0028] The features and performance of the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0029] Embodiment

[0030] Please refer toFigures 1 to 3 , a structure-reinforced oil-water separator, comprising a box body 10, a slide plate 20 and a driving mechanism 30. The box body 10 includes a first side 11 and a second side 12. A first baffle 13 is connected to the top wall of the box body 10, and the first baffle 13 extends to the lower inner part of the box body 10. An oil-water mixing space 15 is formed between the first baffle 13 and the first side 11. For example, the first side 11 and the second side 12 can be the two sides in the length direction of the box body 10. Here, the oil-water mixing space 15 means that the input liquid material is stored in the oil-water mixing space 15, and the oil phase and the water phase are separated up and down. The height between the bottom of the first baffle 13 and the bottom of the box body 10 is the channel for the water phase to lead from the oil-water mixing space 15 to the water-phase overflow space 16. A second baffle 14 is connected to the bottom wall of the box body 10, and the second baffle 14 extends to the upper inner part of the box body 10. A water-phase overflow space 16 is formed between the second baffle 14 and the first baffle 13. A water-phase storage space 17 is formed between the second baffle 14 and the second side 12. An overflow port 111 is arranged on the first side 11, and a drain port 121 is arranged on the second side 12. Here, because the oil-water mixing space 15 is communicated with the water-phase overflow space 16, the height of the second baffle 14 determines the height position of the oil phase in the oil-water mixing space 15. It is necessary to match the height of the second baffle 14 with the height of the overflow port 111 so that the oil phase can just be at the overflow port 111. A plurality of rows of flow disturbance plates 40 are arranged at intervals in the water-phase storage space 17. Each row of the flow disturbance plates 40 is provided with a plurality of through holes. The slide plate 20 is vertically slidably arranged on the first side 11 to block part or all of the overflow port 111. The driving mechanism 30 is adapted to drive the slide plate 20 to slide vertically. For example, the through holes are used for the flow between the water phases to make the water phase in the water-phase storage space 17 at the same liquid level. For example, the driving mechanism 30 can include a hydraulic cylinder.

[0031] The oil-water separator of the present utility model includes a box body 10, a slide plate 20 and a driving mechanism 30. When the oil and water are normally separated, the mixed solution enters the oil-water mixing space 15. Under the water-phase overflow action of the second baffle 14, the oil layer can cover the overflow port 111 on the first side 11 of the box body 10. At this time, the oil phase can be separated through the overflow port 111. Due to the blockage of the overflow port 111 by the slide plate 20, by adjusting the blockage of the overflow port 111 by the slide plate 20 through the driving mechanism 30, the overflow height of the box body 10 can be effectively adjusted. In addition, by arranging a plurality of rows of flow disturbance plates 40 in the water-phase storage space 17 of the box body 10, when the box body 10 fluctuates, under the blocking of the flow disturbance plates 40, the impact of the water phase on the side wall of the box body 10 can be effectively reduced, thereby improving the service life of the entire oil-water separator.

[0032] In another embodiment, a grid-shaped reinforcing plate 18 is provided on the outer side wall of the box body 10. With this arrangement, the structural strength of the box body 10 can be effectively improved, and the impact resistance can be enhanced. Preferably, the grid-shaped reinforcing plate 18 is welded to the outer side wall of the box body 10.

[0033] In another embodiment, the spoiler 40 includes a plurality of first through holes 41 spaced apart from each other at the upper part and a second through hole 42 at the bottom. With this arrangement, the second through hole 42 can make the water phases in the water tank storage space at the same liquid level, and the first through holes 41 can improve the flow capacity of the water phases.

[0034] In another embodiment, the number of the overflow ports 111 is multiple and they are all at the same height. With this arrangement, the separation speed of the oil phase can be increased, and the separation speed can be flexibly adjusted according to the position of the slide plate 20.

[0035] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made by those skilled in the art within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
