Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of degassing devices, in particular to a PPTA polymer degassing device. Background Art

[0002] The PPTA (para-aramid polymer, also known as poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide)) polymer degassing device is one of the key equipment in the aramid fiber production process. It is mainly used to remove bubbles in the spinning solution formed after the PPTA polymer is dissolved in solvents such as concentrated sulfuric acid to ensure the stability of the spinning process and the quality of the fiber.

[0003] In the prior art, the conical deaerator drives the double conical spiral ribbons to rotate together through the rotating shaft to stir the liquid in the conical stirring tank. Under the stirring action of the spiral ribbon, the liquid continuously rolls up and down. The bubbles formed during the stirring process rise to the liquid surface under the action of buoyancy, or are brought to the vicinity of the liquid surface when the liquid rolls. The bubbles escape from the liquid under the action of vacuum, obtaining a vacuum stirring and deaeration treatment, thereby completing the third deaeration of the liquid.

[0004] However, in this degassing method, since the spiral ribbon is arranged along the inner wall of the shell and the width of the spiral ribbon is fixed, as the horizontal plane continues to rise, the spiral ribbon is farther away from the central axis of the shell. Therefore, the stirring effect of the spiral ribbon on the material near the central axis gradually decreases as the horizontal plane rises, and it is difficult to drive the material near the central axis to roll up and down. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the problem in the prior art that the stirring effect of the spiral ribbon on the material near the central axis gradually decreases as the horizontal plane rises.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application proposes a PPTA polymer degassing device, comprising: a conical shell; a feed port arranged at the top of the conical shell; a discharge port arranged at the bottom of the conical shell; a drive motor arranged at the center of the top of the conical shell; a rotating shaft connected to the output end of the drive motor and extending to the discharge port; an outer spiral knife mounted on the rotating shaft through a support frame; it is characterized in that the inner spiral knife is arranged along the surface of the rotating shaft; and a triangular scraper and a comb-shaped scraper are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the rotating shaft.

[0007] The deaeration device of the present application, by arranging an inner spiral blade along the surface of the rotating shaft in the opposite direction of rotation to the outer spiral blade, completes the stirring of the material near the rotating shaft, and drives the material near the rotating shaft to move from top to bottom, forming a closed circulation path with the material moving upward along the outer spiral blade, and at the same time, a triangular scraper and a comb-shaped scraper with higher stirring efficiency are added to the bottom end of the deaeration device, which solves the problem in the prior art that the stirring effect of the spiral ribbon on the material near the central axis gradually decreases as the horizontal plane rises.

[0008] As an improvement of the above-mentioned feed part of the present application, in order to make the material enter the device evenly along the inner wall of the conical shell, the feed part includes: a main feed port arranged at the top of the outer wall of the conical shell; a distribution coil connected to the main feed port and close to the top of the inner wall of the conical shell; and feed distribution ports arranged in a ring shape at the bottom end of the distribution coil.

[0009] As an improvement to the above-mentioned inner spiral cutter of the present application, in order to form a circulation path between the material near the inner spiral cutter and the material near the outer spiral cutter, the spiral direction of the inner spiral cutter is opposite to that of the outer spiral cutter.

[0010] Furthermore, in order to enable the material driven by the inner spiral knife to achieve secondary degassing, the end of the inner spiral knife is welded to the upper surface of the largest tooth of the comb-shaped scraper.

[0011] As an improvement of the above-mentioned triangular scraper of the present application, in order to further enhance the degassing effect, the bevel edge of the triangular scraper is set to be angular.

[0012] Furthermore, in order to ensure the scraping effect while avoiding wear of the triangular scraper, there is a gap of 10 mm to 20 mm between the edge of the triangular scraper and the inner wall of the conical shell.

[0013] As an improvement to the comb-shaped scraper mentioned above in the present application, in order to further enhance the degassing effect, the end of the comb-shaped scraper away from the rotating shaft is configured to be angular.

[0014] Furthermore, to avoid wear of the comb-shaped scraper, the tooth shape of the comb-shaped scraper decreases from the top to the bottom end according to the inner wall of the conical shell, and there is a gap of 10mm to 20mm between the angular end of the comb-shaped scraper and the inner wall of the conical shell.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0016] 1. The deaeration device of the present application, by arranging an inner spiral blade along the surface of the rotating shaft in the opposite direction of rotation to the outer spiral blade, completes the stirring of the material near the rotating shaft, and drives the material near the rotating shaft to move from top to bottom, forming a closed circulation path with the material moving upward along the outer spiral blade, and at the same time, a triangular scraper and a comb-shaped scraper with higher stirring efficiency are added to the bottom end of the deaeration device, which solves the problem in the prior art that the stirring effect of the spiral ribbon on the material near the central axis gradually decreases as the horizontal plane rises.

[0017] 2. In the present application, triangular scrapers and comb-shaped scrapers are symmetrically arranged at a position near the bottom end of the degassing device on the rotating shaft. The triangular scraper is mainly used to promote the movement of viscous materials, which can effectively reduce the resistance of the comb-shaped scraper caused by the viscous material during rotation, thereby reducing the wear of the comb-shaped scraper; and the comb-shaped scraper can penetrate deep into the polymer during rotation, allowing the material to pass through the gaps between the teeth, effectively scraping off the bubbles inside the material. At the same time, the racks of the comb-shaped scraper are gradually shortened from top to bottom, realizing gradually refined scraping from top to bottom, ensuring the comprehensiveness and thoroughness of degassing.

[0018] 3. The parts of the triangular scraper and the comb scraper close to the inner wall of the conical shell are set to an angular shape, which can ensure that the material is effectively degassed when it moves from the bottom to the top in the initial stage, that is, in the initial stage of upward movement driven by the outer spiral blade.

[0023] The following will be combined with the Figure 1The embodiments of the technical solution of the present application are described in detail. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present application and are therefore only examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present application described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0024] like Figure 1 A PPTA polymer degassing device of the present application is illustrated, which includes: a conical shell 1; a feed port 2 arranged at the top of the conical shell 1; a discharge port 3 arranged at the bottom of the conical shell 1; a drive motor 4 arranged at the center of the top of the conical shell 1; a rotating shaft 5 connected to the output end of the drive motor 4 and extending to the discharge port 3; an outer spiral blade 7 mounted on the rotating shaft 5 through a support frame 6; it is characterized in that it includes an inner spiral blade 8 arranged along the surface of the rotating shaft 5; and a triangular scraper 9 and a comb-shaped scraper 10 symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the rotating shaft 5.

[0025] In one embodiment of the present application, a conical housing 1 provides space for stirring the viscous material. A feed port 2 is located at the top of the housing 1 for injecting the PPTA polymer solution to be degassed into the device, and a discharge port 3 is located at the bottom for discharging the degassed polymer solution. A drive motor 4 is mounted at the center of the top of the housing 1. The motor's output terminal is connected to a rotating shaft 5 extending to the discharge port 3, providing power for the entire degassed process.

[0026] In the prior art, since the spiral ribbon is arranged along the inner wall of the shell and the width of the spiral ribbon is constant, as the horizontal plane continues to rise, the spiral ribbon is farther away from the central axis of the shell. Therefore, the stirring effect of the spiral ribbon on the material near the central axis gradually decreases as the horizontal plane rises, and it is difficult to drive the material near the central axis to roll up and down.

[0027] In one embodiment of the present application, an outer spiral blade 7 is mounted on the rotating shaft 5 via a support frame 6. The outer spiral blade rotates along the inner wall of the conical outer shell 1, driving the polymer solution to move from the bottom to the top. In order to enhance the stirring effect on the material near the rotating shaft 5, the present invention particularly arranges an inner spiral blade 8 along the surface of the rotating shaft 5, and its spiral direction is opposite to that of the outer spiral blade 7. This design enables the inner spiral blade 8 to drive the material near the rotating shaft from the top to the bottom when rotating, forming a closed circulation path with the material driven by the outer spiral blade 7, thereby solving the problem of the weakened stirring effect of the spiral ribbon on the material near the central axis in the traditional conical degassing machine.

[0028] Continue to refer to Figure 1In a further embodiment, the feed section 2 includes: a main feed port 21 disposed at the top of the outer wall of the conical housing 1; a feed distribution coil 22 connected to the main feed port 21 and in close contact with the top of the inner wall of the conical housing 1; and feed branch ports 23 arranged in an annular pattern at the bottom of the feed distribution coil 22. Specifically, the material first enters the feed distribution coil 22 through the main feed port 21, then flows into the device through the feed branch ports 23 at the bottom of the feed distribution coil 22, forming several small streams. For viscous materials that are prone to agglomeration, the branching process can reduce material agglomeration during the conveying and mixing process, making the material more delicate and uniform.

[0029] To further enhance degassing, the present invention symmetrically arranges triangular scrapers 9 and comb-shaped scrapers 10 at the bottom of the rotating shaft 5. The beveled edges of the triangular scrapers 9 are designed to be angular, enhancing their ability to push viscous materials and reducing the resistance experienced by the comb-shaped scrapers during rotation. Furthermore, to ensure effective scraping and prevent excessive wear, a clearance of 10 to 20 mm is maintained between the edges of the triangular scrapers 9 and the inner wall of the conical housing 1.

[0030] Continue to refer to Figure 1 In a further embodiment, the end of the comb-shaped scraper 10 facing away from the rotating shaft 5 is also angular to better scrape bubbles from the material. The tooth profile of the comb-shaped scraper gradually decreases from top to bottom, following the shape of the inner wall of the conical shell 1. This design allows the comb-shaped scraper to penetrate deep into the polymer during rotation, while achieving gradually finer scraping from top to bottom, ensuring comprehensive and thorough degassing. In addition, the angular end of the comb-shaped scraper also maintains a gap of 10mm to 20mm from the inner wall of the conical shell 1 to reduce wear.

[0031] During the specific operation, the PPTA polymer solution is injected into the conical shell 1 through the feed port 2. After the drive motor 4 is started, it drives the rotating shaft 5 and the outer spiral blade 7, inner spiral blade 8, triangular scraper 9 and comb-shaped scraper 10 installed thereon to rotate together. The outer spiral blade 7 carries the polymer solution from the bottom to the top, while the inner spiral blade 8 does the opposite, carrying the material near the rotating shaft to the bottom, forming a closed loop. The triangular scraper 9 and comb-shaped scraper 10 efficiently stir and scrape the material at the bottom, promoting the rupture and discharge of bubbles. Finally, the deaerated PPTA polymer solution is discharged through the discharge port 3, completing the entire deaeration process.
