Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of concentration equipment, in particular to an anti-rake-off rake-type concentrator. Background Art
[0002] Rake thickener is a pulp thickening equipment that uses a rake frame installed at the bottom of a circular trough to continuously discharge the precipitated product based on the principle of gravity sedimentation. Rake thickeners can be divided into three categories according to their structural characteristics: single-layer thickeners, multi-layer thickeners and high-efficiency thickeners; and can be divided into two categories according to their transmission mode: central transmission type and peripheral transmission type.
[0003] When the rake thickener is in use, the motor drives the rake frame to rotate. During the rotation, the rake frame may fall off. Since the rake frame is located below the surface of the thickening tank, it cannot be discovered in time after falling off, causing damage to the machine and unable to be repaired in time, thus reducing the service life of the machine. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model discloses an anti-rake-off rake-type thickener, which aims to solve the technical problem that the rake frame of the rake thickener falls off when in use. Since the rake frame is located below the surface of the thickening tank, it cannot be discovered in time after falling off, resulting in damage to the machine and inability to repair it in time.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] The top of the driving mechanism is mounted on a link cam of the hydraulic cylinder, and the bottom of the driving mechanism is mounted on a link cam of the hydraulic cylinder, and the hydraulic cylinder is connected along the hydraulic cylinder to form a round shank and a round shank to stop the movement of the driving mechanism.
[0007] By setting up a rotating main shaft, a base, a central axis, a sensor cover, a pressure differential sensor, a pressure differential rod, an upper extrusion plate, a stepper motor, a push rod and a lower extrusion plate, during normal operation, the stepper motor feeds the push rod to drive the lower extrusion plate to squeeze the upper extrusion plate, and at the same time the pressure sensor reads the pressure brought by the pressure differential rod to obtain a stable pressure value. When the rake concentrator is working, if the base falls off due to a fault, the pressure sensor converts the change in the pressure difference before and after into a change in the built-in pressure-sensitive element of the sensor. When the read pressure value decreases, the remote control terminal stops the machine operation in time, which is conducive to stopping the operation in time after the fault occurs. At the same time, the pressure differential sensor activates the alarm system to effectively remind the staff to discover the fault and avoid further damage to the equipment.
[0008] In a preferred solution, a plurality of rake frames are provided on the outside of the base, and the plurality of rake frames are equidistantly distributed around the base in a circle, three buckles are fixedly connected to the upper side of the base, and hooks are connected to the outer sides of the three buckles, the upper sides of the three hooks are fixedly connected to tension spring rods, the upper sides of the three tension spring rods are fixedly connected to arc frames, three equidistantly circumferential sliding grooves are opened on the central axis, the interiors of the three sliding grooves are movably connected to sliders, the lower sides of the sliders are fixedly connected to buffer spring rods, the lower side of the buffer spring rod and the bottom of the sliding groove are fixedly connected, and the three buckles are respectively located on the outer sides of the three sliding grooves, and the other ends of the three arc frames are respectively fixedly connected to the three sliding seats.
[0009] By providing a rake frame, a rotating spindle, a buckle, a hook, a tension spring rod, an arc frame, a slider and a buffer spring rod, when the equipment fails and the rake frame falls off, the arc frame connects the base and the central axis, and the arc frame pulls the base, and the slider starts to slide down in the sliding groove. During the process, the arc frame pulls the base (the tension spring rod between the buckle and the hook is elastically connected, and the elastic properties of the spring are used to perform a pulling effect), which effectively alleviates the falling of the rake frame. At the same time, when the slider slides down in the slider groove due to the tension, the buffer spring rod has a buffering effect due to the elastic effect of the spring, which better reduces the impact of the rake frame on the arc frame when it falls off.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, a concentration tank is provided on the outside of the rotating main shaft, and a support plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the concentration tank, one end of the support plate is fixedly connected to a support cylinder, a second circular hole is provided inside the support cylinder, the rotating main shaft is located inside the second circular hole and is rotatably connected through a bearing, and a motor support frame is fixedly connected to the upper side of the support cylinder, a rotating motor is fixedly connected to the upper side of the motor support frame, the output shaft of the rotating motor is movably connected to a short shaft, and a second through-hole is provided on the motor support frame, the other end of the short shaft passes through the second through-hole and is fixedly connected to the rotating main shaft.
[0011] The rake thickener is equipped with a concentration tank, a support plate, a support cylinder, a motor support frame and a rotating motor. When the rake thickener is started, the concentration tank and the support plate fix the position of the support cylinder, and the rotating motor drives the central rotating shaft to rotate. During the process, the rake frame rotates in the concentration tank through the rotation of the central rotating shaft, squeezing out the water in the material while leaving the solid matter at the bottom of the tank.
[0012] From the above, it can be seen that the utility model provides an anti-rake-off rake-type concentrator. During the rotation process, the rake frame falls off. Since the rake frame is located below the surface of the concentrating tank, it cannot be discovered in time after falling off, resulting in damage to the machine. At the same time, the pressure differential sensor activates the alarm system, effectively reminding the staff to discover the fault and avoid the technical effect of the scenario where the equipment is further damaged.
