Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of storage devices, and in particular relates to an activated carbon temporary storage device. Background Art

[0002] Activated carbon is a specially treated carbon made by heating organic raw materials in an airless environment to reduce non-carbon components. The carbon then reacts with gases, eroding the surface and creating a well-developed microporous structure. Activated carbon has a hydrophobic adsorption characteristic and strongly adsorbs organic matter in aqueous solutions, making it suitable as an adsorbent for treating municipal and industrial wastewater.

[0003] Because activated carbon has strong adsorption properties, factories need to store activated carbon granules in a cool and dry space to reduce the moisture in the air being adsorbed by the activated carbon granules, causing the activated carbon granules to become ineffective; or the activated carbon granules to spontaneously combust due to high temperatures.

[0004] Some buyers have smaller purchasing demands and do not need to purchase fully packaged activated carbon. After opening, activated carbon will inevitably come into contact with air, which can easily cause the performance of the activated carbon to deteriorate and affect the sales quality of the activated carbon. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model provides an activated carbon temporary storage device to solve the problem that the adsorption performance of bulk activated carbon is easily reduced during storage.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0007] An activated carbon temporary storage device comprises a storage tank body, wherein a plurality of support plates for separating the activated carbon are detachably provided in the storage tank body, and the plurality of support plates are spaced apart along the height direction of the storage tank body;

[0008] A water absorbing plate is inserted and installed in the support plate, and a plurality of air holes are provided on both sides of the support plate.

[0009] Furthermore, a feed channel is connected to the side wall of the storage tank body near the top, the feed channel is arranged at an angle, and the bottom wall of the discharge end of the feed channel is connected to the surface of one of the support plates.

[0010] Furthermore, a discharge port is provided at the bottom of the storage tank body, and the bottom wall of the storage tank body gradually slopes downward toward the discharge port.

[0011] Furthermore, the support plate includes a first support plate and a second support plate, the first support plate and the second support plate are respectively inserted into the storage tank body from the side walls on opposite sides of the storage tank body, and the first support plate and the second support plate are staggered.

[0012] Furthermore, the support plate is arranged obliquely downward along the height direction of the storage tank body, and the support plate includes a plate surface and a fixing portion. When the support plate is inserted into the storage tank body, the fixing portion is located outside the storage tank body, the plate surface is located inside the storage tank body, and an end of the plate surface away from the fixing portion is spaced from the inner wall of the storage tank body.

[0013] Furthermore, the storage tank body includes a first side wall and a second side wall that are arranged opposite to each other, and a mounting seat plate is fixed on the first side wall and the second side wall, and both side edges of the plate surface adjacent to the fixing portion are overlapped on the mounting seat plate.

[0014] Furthermore, the plate surface includes a first plate area and a second plate area, a space layer is formed between the first plate area and the second plate area, the water absorption plate is inserted into the space layer, and the air vent is connected to the space layer; a plurality of supporting columns are arranged between the first plate area and the second plate area.

[0015] Furthermore, a long groove for inserting the water absorption plate is formed through the fixing portion, the long groove is communicated with the space layer, and a sealing strip for sealing the long groove is installed on the fixing portion.

[0016] Furthermore, a liftable support frame is provided at the bottom of the storage tank.

[0017] The utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This application sets multiple support plates in the storage tank body, and sets water absorption plates inside the support plates. On the one hand, the support plates can separate the activated carbon particles in the storage tank body, reduce the activated carbon accumulation height, and reduce heat accumulation; on the other hand, the water absorption plates can absorb the moisture in the storage tank body, ensuring a dry storage environment in the tank body, so that the performance of the activated carbon can be more stable.

[0019] 2. The first support plate and the second support plate are staggered and inclined. When the activated carbon particles are poured into the storage tank, the activated carbon particles can slide along the first support plate and the second support plate to the bottom of the storage tank in turn, reducing the impact force on the activated carbon particles when they fall directly to the bottom of the storage tank, thereby improving the integrity of the activated carbon particles.

[0020] 3. Long grooves and sealing strips are opened on the fixed part to facilitate regular replacement of the water absorption plate; when the temperature inside the storage tank is high, the ventilation equipment can be extended into the space layer through the long groove to blow clean air into the storage tank to achieve cooling.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] To facilitate understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings provide embodiments of the present application. However, the present application may be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a temporary storage device for activated carbon includes a storage tank body 1. In the embodiment of the present application, the cross-section of the storage tank body 1 is square, and the storage tank body 1 includes a first side wall and a second side wall arranged opposite to each other, as well as a third side wall and a fourth side wall arranged opposite to each other. A feed channel 11 is connected to the side wall near the top of the storage tank body 1. The feed channel 11 is arranged at an angle and is connected to the internal space of the storage tank body 1. A sealing cover is provided at the end of the feed channel 11. The sealing cover is not shown in the accompanying drawings. The sealing cover is provided to reduce the entry of moisture or pollutants in the air into the storage tank body 1. A discharge port 13 is provided on the bottom wall of the storage tank body 1, and the bottom wall of the storage tank body 1 gradually tilts downward in the direction close to the discharge port 13, so that the activated carbon particles stored in the storage tank body 1 can slide along the bottom wall of the storage tank body 1 to the discharge port 13 for discharge. The discharge port 13 is provided with an opening and closing valve, so that the activated carbon particles can be flexibly taken out.

[0029] The bottom of the storage tank 1 is provided with a support frame 5 that can be raised and lowered. The support frame 5 can be a finished hydraulic lift. A hydraulic lift is provided at each of the four corners of the storage tank 1. When storing activated carbon granules on a daily basis, the support frame 5 can be used to lift the storage tank 1. On the one hand, this prevents the storage tank 1 from contacting the ground and getting wet. On the other hand, it is convenient for workers to remove the activated carbon granules from the discharge port 13. When it is necessary to feed the storage tank 1, the storage tank 1 can be lowered to facilitate workers to pour the activated carbon granules from the feed channel 11.

[0030] Multiple support plates 2 are installed vertically within the storage tank 1. These support plates 2 are spaced apart and gradually slope downward from the edge of the storage tank 1 toward the center. Specifically, multiple sets of mounting plates 12 are fixed vertically to the first and second side walls. The support plates 2 are inserted into the storage tank 1 from the third or fourth side wall. After being inserted into the storage tank 1, the support plates 2 overlap the mounting plates 12 on both sides, providing stable support.

[0031] The support plate 2 includes a first support plate 21 and a second support plate 22. The first support plate 21 is inserted into the storage tank body 1 from the third side wall, with the free end of the first support plate 21 spaced from the fourth side wall. The second support plate 22 is inserted into the storage tank body 1 from the fourth side wall, with the free end of the second support plate 22 spaced from the third side wall. The first and second support plates 21, 22 are arranged in an alternating pattern, allowing the activated carbon granules to slide along the first and second support plates 21, 22 and accumulate at the bottom of the storage tank body 1. Due to the arrangement of the first and second support plates 21, 22, the activated carbon granules fall from a low height when poured from the feed channel 11 into the storage tank body 1, making them less likely to break or be damaged by severe impact. Furthermore, the bottom wall of the discharge end of the feed channel 11 is connected to the uppermost support plate 2, allowing the activated carbon granules in the feed channel 11 to flow smoothly into the storage tank body 1.

[0032] Each support plate 2 includes a plate surface 23 and a fixing portion 24. The fixing portion 24 is disposed on one side of the plate surface 23. When the support plate 2 is inserted into the storage tank body 1, the plate surface 23 is located inside the storage tank body 1, while the fixing portion 24 is located outside the storage tank body 1 and abuts against the outer wall of the storage tank body 1. The fixing portion 24 not only limits the movement of the support plate 2, but also blocks the gap in the side wall of the storage tank body 1, reducing the amount of moisture in the air that enters the storage tank body 1 through the gap in the side wall.

[0033] The plate surface 23 includes a first plate section 232 and a second plate section 233, spaced apart in parallel. A space layer 234 is formed between the first and second plate sections 232, 233. To achieve stable support, multiple rows of support columns 235 are provided between the first and second plate sections 232, 233. Each row of support columns 235 includes multiple spaced apart support columns 235. A water-absorbing plate 3 is inserted between adjacent rows of support columns 235. Furthermore, a plurality of air holes 231 are provided through the first and second plate sections 232, 233. These air holes 231 allow moisture within the activated carbon granules to be absorbed by the water-absorbing plate 3 through the air holes 231. Due to the small spacing between adjacent support plates 2, moisture within the storage tank 1 can be fully absorbed, ensuring a dry storage environment within the storage tank 1.

[0034] The sidewall of the fixing portion 24 facing the outside of the storage tank 1 is further provided with an elongated groove 241. The elongated groove 241 extends through the fixing portion 24 and communicates with the space layer 234. The water absorbing plate 3 is inserted into the space layer 234 through the elongated groove 241, thereby facilitating the regular replacement of the water absorbing plate 3. Furthermore, a sealing strip 4 is installed in the elongated groove 241 to seal the elongated groove 241 and isolate the space layer 234 from the outside air.

[0035] The present application sets up a space layer 234 in the support plate 2. On the one hand, the water absorption plate 3 can be placed to realize the drying inside the storage tank body 1. On the other hand, when the temperature is high, the feed channel 11 can be opened, and the water absorption plate 3 in part of the support plate 2 can be taken out, and the air blast cooling equipment is extended into the space layer 234 through the long groove 241. By blowing air into the space layer 234, the inside of the activated carbon particles can be cooled, thereby reducing the accumulation of heat in the middle of the activated carbon particles.

[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
