The mounting hole 28 is penetrated by a bolt 30 passing through the through hole 29, and the other end of the bolt 30 is screwed with a nut 31. The defoaming plate 24 and the two half sleeves 26 are fastened to the rotating shaft 16 by the bolts 30 and nuts 31. One end of the first liquid delivery pipe 7 is connected to the lower part of the first-effect evaporation tank 1 and the other end is connected to the upper part of the first-effect concentration tank 2.

[0023] In this embodiment, when the concentration operation is carried out, the motor 15 is turned on to drive the rotating shaft 16 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 16 drives the stirring rod 17 and the scraper 18 to rotate. Since the scraper 18 is against the lower inner wall of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4 (inverted cone shape), the scraper 18 will scrape off the liquid remaining at the bottom of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4 when rotating, effectively preventing the liquid from remaining and accumulating at the bottom of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4, thereby preventing blockage. On the one hand, the stirring rod 17 can stir the liquid at the bottom of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4 when rotating, so that the liquid moves, preventing the liquid from being stagnant and more likely to remain at the bottom of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4. On the other hand, it serves as a connecting structure between the scraper 18 and the rotating shaft 16, serving two purposes in one. Each set of stirring rods 17 includes an upper rod 19 and a lower rod 20, so that the connection structure between the scraper 18 and the rotating shaft 16 is stable and firm.
[0024] When the first liquid delivery pipe 7 and the third liquid delivery pipe 11 deliver the liquid, the liquid falls on the diverter plate 21. Since the diverter plate 21 rotates with the rotating shaft 16, part of the liquid is thrown to the middle and lower parts of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4 through the diverter hole 22, and the other part of the liquid is thrown to the inner wall of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4 due to the centrifugal force of the diverter plate 21, and then flows to the middle and lower parts of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4 due to its own weight. In this process, the liquid can form falling film evaporation on the inner wall of the middle and lower parts of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4, which greatly increases the contact area and contact time between the liquid and the steam. Compared with the prior art where the liquid directly falls to the bottom of the concentration tank through the pipeline, the concentration work efficiency is higher, the steam utilization rate is higher, and the production cost is reduced;
[0025] Since the diverter holes 22 are inclined outward from top to bottom, part of the liquid is thrown out from the diverter holes 22 in the outer circles to the inner walls of the first-effect concentration tank 2 and the second-effect concentration tank 4 to increase the contact time between the liquid and the steam. The diverter holes 22 are arc-shaped, and the arc length of the diverter holes 22 gradually increases from the inner circle to the outer circle, which facilitates the diversion of the liquid and prevents most of the liquid from accumulating on the diverter plate 21.
[0026] During operation, the falling of the liquid and the stirring of the liquid by the stirring rod 17 will generate bubbles. The rotating shaft 16 drives the defoaming plate 24 to rotate, and the multiple rows and columns of defoaming spikes 25 can puncture the bubbles to achieve the purpose of defoaming. The sleeve 23 consists of two half sleeves 26. One side of the defoaming plate 24 is clamped between two flat plates 27 on the same side of the half sleeve 26. The defoaming plate 24 and the two half sleeves 26 are fastened to the rotating shaft 16 by bolts 30 and nuts 31. The position of the defoaming plate 24 on the rotating shaft 16 can be adjusted to adapt to different liquid levels.
[0027] The first pump 32 is used to transport the liquid from the first-effect evaporation tank 1 to the first-effect concentration tank 2, the second pump 33 is used to transport the liquid from the first-effect concentration tank 2 to the second-effect evaporation tank 3, the third pump 34 is used to transport the liquid from the second-effect evaporation tank 3 to the second-effect concentration tank 4, the condensed water pipe 35 is used to discharge condensed water, the first circulation pipe 36 and the fourth pump 37 are used to transport the liquid from the first-effect concentration tank 2 to the first-effect evaporation tank 1 to achieve the purpose of circulation concentration, and the liquid enters the second-effect evaporation tank 3 after the concentration of the liquid in the first-effect concentration tank 2 reaches the standard. The second circulation pipe 38 and the fifth pump 39 are used to transport the liquid from the second-effect evaporation tank 3 to the second-effect evaporation tank 3, and the liquid is discharged through the discharge pipe 14 after the concentration of the liquid in the second-effect concentration tank 4 reaches the standard.
