[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a membrane element disassembly device to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned related technologies, to achieve efficient and convenient disassembly of membrane elements, and at the same time to provide protection for the membrane elements during the disassembly process to avoid damage to the membrane elements during the disassembly process.

[0025] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0026] This utility model provides a membrane element disassembly device, please refer to Figure 1 , a fixing component and a working component, the fixing component includes a fixing part 2, which can be detachably connected to the membrane shell where the membrane element to be disassembled is located; the working component includes a center rod 3, an expansion pad 1 and a driver 6, the center rod 3 can be slidably extended into the membrane shell, and one end of the center rod 3 extending into the membrane shell is detachably connected to the expansion pad 1, the expansion pad 1 is made of elastic material, the expansion pad 1 can be abutted against the membrane element to be disassembled, the area of ​​the abutting surface of the expansion pad 1 and the membrane element to be disassembled is smaller than the area of ​​the membrane element to be disassembled, and the other end of the center rod 3 is transmission-connected to the driver 6; the center rod 3 drives the expansion pad 1 to slide back and forth in the membrane shell, which can push the membrane element to be disassembled in the membrane shell to realize the disassembly of the membrane element to be disassembled.

[0027] In the membrane element disassembly device of the present invention, the fixing member 2 of the fixing assembly can be connected to the membrane shell to provide stable support for the working assembly. The driver 6 drives the center rod 3 to slide back and forth, thereby driving the expansion pad 1 to move. After the expansion pad 1 abuts the membrane element to be disassembled, the center rod 3 is used to drive the expansion pad 1 to slide, pushing the membrane element to be disassembled to move in the membrane shell until the membrane element to be disassembled is pushed out to realize the disassembly of the membrane element, thereby improving the convenience of disassembly of the membrane element. The driver 6 drives the center rod 3 and the expansion pad 1, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency of the membrane element. The expansion pad 1 is made of an elastic element, which can effectively protect the membrane element and avoid damage to the membrane element. The abutment area between the expansion pad 1 and the membrane element is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the membrane element, thereby avoiding the expansion pad 1 from scratching the side wall of the membrane shell when moving in the membrane shell to cause damage to the membrane element, thereby further enhancing the protection effect on the membrane element.

[0028] It also needs to be explained here that the utility model provides an expansion pad 1 at one end of the center rod 3 extending into the membrane shell, which increases the force-bearing area of ​​the membrane element to be disassembled and provides protection for the membrane element. The utility model stipulates that the contact area between the expansion pad 1 and the membrane element is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the membrane element. This is to ensure that the cross-sectional area of ​​the expansion pad 1 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the membrane shell (the cross-sectional area here refers to the cross-sectional area in the plane perpendicular to the sliding direction of the center rod 3). The cross-sectional area of ​​the expansion pad 1 is reasonably set to increase the force-bearing area of ​​the membrane element, while avoiding scratches between the expansion pad 1 and the side of the membrane shell, thereby effectively protecting the membrane element.

[0029] The fixing member 2 can be connected to the membrane shell using a fixing strap. This strapping connection is convenient and simple in structure. In practical applications, the fixing member 2 can also be plugged into the membrane shell, where the fixing member 2 is sleeved onto the outside of the membrane shell. The fixing member 2 can be connected to the membrane shell using different connection methods depending on the actual working conditions, providing stable support for the working assembly and ensuring effective removal of the membrane element.

[0030] Specifically, the fixing assembly also includes a fixing disk 4, which is connected to the fixing part 2. The fixing disk 4 can be against the axial end face of the membrane shell, further enhancing the connection stability between the fixing assembly and the membrane shell, and providing stable support for the center rod 3 and the expansion pad 1. The center rod 3 can slide through the fixing disk 4 and extend into the membrane shell.

[0031] More specifically, the working assembly also includes a propeller 5, which is rotatably mounted on a fixed disk 4. The output end of a driver 6 is drivingly connected to the propeller 5, which in turn is drivingly connected to the center rod 3 to drive the center rod 3 back and forth. The driver 6 drives the propeller 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the center rod 3 back and forth, thereby pushing the membrane element using the expansion pad 1 to facilitate removal. The driver 6 can use a belt drive, gear drive, or other method to drive the propeller 5, ensuring smooth power transmission and reliable operation of the membrane element removal device.

[0032] In this embodiment, the propeller 5 is threadedly connected to the center rod 3 to form a ball screw mechanism, which converts rotational motion into reciprocating sliding motion of the center rod 3. The propeller 5 and the center rod 3 form a ball screw mechanism, further improving the motion stability of the center rod 3. In other achievable embodiments of the present invention, the propeller 5 and the center rod 3 can also use other transmission methods to achieve power transmission, such as a rack and pinion structure. In actual applications, the appropriate transmission method can be selected according to actual working conditions to improve the flexibility and adaptability of the device.

[0033] It should also be noted that the propeller 5 is sleeved on the outside of the center rod 3 and the two are arranged coaxially to improve the uniformity of the force applied to the center rod 3. In actual applications, when the membrane shell is a cylindrical structure, the center rod 3 and the expansion pad 1 can be arranged coaxially with the membrane shell to improve the uniformity of the force applied to the membrane element to be removed.

[0034] In order to improve the safety of the reciprocating motion of the center rod 3, a limiting element is set between the propeller 5 and the center rod 3 to limit the extreme position of the reciprocating sliding of the center rod 3, prevent the center rod 3 from falling out of the propeller 5, and improve the working reliability of the device.

[0035] Furthermore, the length of the central rod 3 can be adjusted to accommodate the disassembly of membrane elements in membrane shells of various specifications, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the device.

[0036] In this embodiment, the center rod 3 is a split structure, comprising multiple segments. Adjacent segments are detachably connected, either by threaded connections or snap-fit ​​connections. An appropriate number of segments are selected based on the size of the membrane shell, and the segments are connected to form a single unit, forming the center rod 3. The end of the center rod 3 is connected to the expansion pad 1 to accommodate various membrane element disassembly conditions. In other conceivable embodiments of the present invention, the center rod 3 may also be a telescopic structure to accommodate length adjustments.

[0037] In other achievable embodiments of the present invention, the expansion pad 1 is a columnar structure, and the expansion pad 1 is connected to the center rod 3 by snapping, so that the connection is fastened and easy to assemble and disassemble, and convenient to replace. It should also be explained that the expansion pad 1 needs to have a certain degree of elasticity while also having a certain degree of wear resistance to ensure the strength of the expansion pad 1 and extend the service life of the expansion pad 1. The reasonable selection of the material of the expansion pad 1 is a common practice of those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0038] The membrane element disassembly device of the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0039] (1) The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention can simplify the disassembly process. The device can quickly connect the gap between the membrane element and the membrane shell. Through the rotation of the center rod 3 and the force of the propeller 5, the expansion pad 1 can be moved back and forth. Compared with the traditional disassembly method, the membrane element disassembly process is greatly simplified and unnecessary tedious operating steps are reduced.

[0040] (2) The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention does not require the assistance of complex tools. When using a roll-type membrane element, no additional complex auxiliary tools are required. Unlike traditional disassembly, which may require multiple wrenches, screwdrivers and other tools to gradually disassemble the relevant components, the device, with its own structural design, can achieve the entire disassembly process by simply applying force to the center rod 3 and the propulsion member 5 through the force-applying member, making it more convenient and quick for operators to use.

[0041] (3) The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention can reduce physical damage during the demolding process. Traditional disassembly methods may easily cause physical damage to the membrane element, such as scratches and collisions, due to improper operation or unreasonable use of tools. However, the expansion pad 1 and other components of the membrane element disassembly device of the present invention are carefully designed to evenly bear force during the disassembly process and have a relatively gentle contact with the membrane element, thereby minimizing physical damage to the membrane element, ensuring the integrity of the membrane element, and extending its service life.

[0042] (4) The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention can prevent chemical contamination. In some disassembly scenarios, if the disassembly method is improper, some chemical substances may be introduced, causing contamination to the membrane element and affecting its subsequent performance. The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention takes this factor into consideration in its design. It does not introduce additional chemical contaminants during the disassembly process, can keep the membrane element clean, and ensure that the performance of the membrane element during reinstallation or other applications is not affected by chemical contamination.

[0043] (4) The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention, through its rational mechanical structure design, can complete the disassembly of the membrane element in a relatively short time. For example, the rotation of the propeller 5 can quickly drive the center rod 3 to move forward and backward, and the expansion pad 1 can also quickly achieve expansion and fixation functions. The entire process is coherent and efficient, significantly shortening the disassembly time compared to traditional manual disassembly methods.

[0044] (5) The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention is suitable for batch operation. In some situations where multiple wound membrane elements need to be disassembled, such as large-scale equipment maintenance in a factory or quality inspection in a membrane element manufacturer, the membrane element disassembly device of the present invention can meet the needs of batch operation. Operators can quickly and repeatedly use the device on different membrane elements for disassembly, thereby improving overall work efficiency and saving manpower and time costs.

[0045] (6) The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention is applicable to membrane elements of various specifications and has a certain degree of versatility. It can be used to disassemble rolled membrane elements of different specifications and models. Its design takes into account various dimensional factors. Through adjustable components or reasonable structural layout, membrane elements of different diameters, lengths and types can be disassembled, meeting the needs of different users and application scenarios, and reducing the trouble of having to equip multiple disassembly tools due to differences in membrane element specifications.

[0046] (7) The membrane element disassembly device of the present invention has various components that have been carefully designed and made of carefully selected materials. Its performance is stable and reliable, and it has high mechanical strength and stability. During the disassembly process, it can withstand certain forces such as tension and pressure, and will not easily deform or damage. For example, the center rod 3 is made of high-strength material and can maintain good performance during frequent rotation and stress, ensuring the smooth progress of the entire disassembly process and improving the reliability and service life of the device.

When the open end face of the cylinder abuts against the first end face of the connector, it is pushed and slid in the positive direction. The slider slides along the slide groove, and the slider drives all the clamps to slide from the first end face relative to the guide block. All the clamps are separated from each other under the guidance of the guide block until all the clamps abut against the second end face of the connector.
