[0002] With the widespread use of lithium-ion batteries around the world, especially the explosive growth in electric vehicles, energy storage systems and other fields, the generation of a large number of waste lithium-ion batteries has put higher demands on resource recycling. Metals such as lithium, nickel, cobalt and copper are key materials for the manufacture of lithium-ion batteries. These metal resources are limited and the mining cost is high. By efficiently recycling and utilizing these metals, not only can we reduce dependence on primary resources, but also reduce environmental impact. Traditional waste treatment technologies such as incineration, landfilling and simple crushing and screening not only have low resource recovery rates, but also easily cause secondary pollution. Especially when dealing with composite waste containing multiple metals, such as lithium battery waste and electronic waste containing nickel, cobalt and copper, traditional methods find it difficult to achieve effective separation and recovery of metals.

Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0025] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model is not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model claimed, but merely represents some embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present utility model and the features and technical solutions in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0026] It should be noted that: Similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings. Therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings.

[0027] As Figures 1-5 shown, this implementation mode provides a co-separation device for lithium battery waste and nickel-cobalt-copper waste, including a separation chamber 1. Multiple nested vibration rings 2 are provided at the inner end of the separation chamber 1. A linkage groove 3 is provided at the inner end of the multiple nested vibration rings 2. A linkage rod 4 is provided at the inner end of the linkage groove 3. A linkage slider 5 is provided at the inner end of the linkage rod 4. An oblique groove 6 is provided at the lower end of the multiple nested vibration rings 2. A linkage ring 9 is provided at the outer end of the outermost vibration ring 2. A ring groove 8 is provided at the outer end of the linkage ring 9. A moving rod 10 is provided at the center of the separation chamber 1. A linkage motor 11 is provided at the upper end of the moving rod 10. An opening groove 14 is provided at the outer end of the linkage motor 11. A lower separation pipe 13 is provided at the lower end of the separation chamber 1. An upper separation pipe 12 is provided at the side end of the separation chamber 1.

[0028] The multiple nested vibration rings 2 are connected to each other through the linkage slider 5 and the linkage groove 3. The linkage rod 4 is fixed in the linkage groove 3, and the linkage slider 5 is wrapped around the outer end of the linkage rod 4.

[0029] Multiple sets of nested vibration rings 2 are interconnected through linkage sliders 5, linkage grooves 3 and linkage rods 4 to form a linkage system. This design allows the vibration rings 2 to remain synchronized during vibration and can achieve the up and down movement of the vibration rings 2 through the cooperation of the linkage sliders 5 and the linkage rods 4, thereby effectively separating waste materials of different densities.

[0030] The inclined slots 6 are embedded at the lower ends of multiple sets of nested vibration rings 2. There is a fixed connection between the outer ends of the outermost set of vibration rings 2 and the linkage ring 9, and a sliding connection between the outer end of the linkage ring 9 and the ring groove 8.

[0031] The inclined slots 6 are embedded at the lower ends of multiple sets of vibration rings 2, facilitating the separation of high-density waste from the lower separation pipe 13 after the vibration rings 2 generate a spacing. The design of the inclined slots 6 helps to automatically open the lower discharge port through the downward movement of the moving rod 10 after the vibration ends, enabling the smooth discharge of high-density waste materials and avoiding the possible blockage problems in the traditional separation process.

[0032] There is a fixed connection between the outermost set of vibration rings 2 and the linkage ring 9, and a sliding connection between the outer end of the linkage ring 9 and the ring groove 8 to achieve the up and down movement of the overall vibration rings 2. This connection method ensures that under the drive of the linkage motor 11, the up and down movement of the moving rod 10 can smoothly drive all the vibration rings 2, realizing the layered arrangement of waste materials and improving the separation efficiency and accuracy.

[0033] The ring groove 8 is embedded and installed at the inner end of the separation chamber 1, and there is a movable connection between the center of the innermost set of vibration rings 2 and the moving rod 10.

[0034] There is a movable connection between the upper end of the moving rod 10 and the linkage motor 11. The opening slot 14 runs through the upper inner surface of the separation chamber 1, and suction pumps are provided at the inner ends of both the upper separation pipe 12 and the lower separation pipe 13.

[0035] There is a movable connection between the upper end of the moving rod 10 and the linkage motor 11. The start of the linkage motor 11 can drive the up and down movement of the moving rod 10. This design allows for the precise control of the movement of the vibration rings 2 by controlling the operation of the linkage motor 11, thereby realizing the layering and discharging of waste materials of different densities and enhancing the automation degree and operation flexibility of the device.

[0036] The setting of the suction pumps accelerates the discharge process of waste materials. Especially when dealing with waste materials with poor viscosity or fluidity, it can effectively avoid the problem of unsmooth discharge, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the separation process.

[0037] Elastic members are provided at the outer ends of the linkage rods 4, and the two ends of the elastic members are respectively connected to the linkage sliders 5 and the linkage grooves 3.

[0038] The addition of elastic parts increases the amplitude and frequency of vibration, helps to evenly distribute the waste during the vibration process, improves the separation effect, and also reduces the structural wear that may occur during the vibration process.

[0039] When the present application is in use: it is necessary to separate lithium battery waste and nickel, cobalt and copper waste, adopt the vibration principle to arrange waste of different densities up and down, inject the waste mixture into the separation bin 1, start the vibration ring 2, and when the vibration ring 2 vibrates, the lower separation tube 13 of the separation bin 1 is closed. After the vibration ends, the upper separation tube 12 is first opened to discharge the waste with low density from the upper end, and the linkage motor 11 is started to drive the moving rod 10 to rise. When the moving rod 10 rises, the entire vibration ring 2 is driven to move upward, and is connected with the ring groove 8 through the linkage ring 9 to completely discharge the waste with low density from the upper end, and then drive the moving rod 10 to descend, so that a distance is generated between the vibration rings 2 through the linkage slider 5, the linkage groove 3 and the linkage rod 4, and the oblique groove 6 is opened to facilitate the removal of the waste with high density from the lower separation tube 13, so as to facilitate the rapid coordinated separation of the two wastes.

[0040] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in the present invention. Although this specification has described the present invention in detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above specific implementation methods. Therefore, any modification or equivalent replacement of the present invention; and all technical solutions and improvements thereof that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention are included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
