Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of scum removal, in particular to a scum removal structure for an anaerobic fermentation tank. Background Art
[0002] During anaerobic fermentation, a layer of scum often forms on the surface of the fermentation tank due to factors such as the nature of the material and fermentation conditions. If this scum is not removed promptly, it will not only hinder the smooth discharge of biogas and affect fermentation gas production, but may also cause stratification of the material in the fermentation tank, affecting the fermentation effect. Therefore, a scum removal mechanism is crucial to ensure the normal operation of the anaerobic fermentation system.
[0003] The existing Chinese patent with announcement number CN205774508U discloses a scum removal device for an anaerobic fermentation tank, including an anaerobic fermentation tank and a stirring device arranged in the anaerobic fermentation tank and located at the bottom of the anaerobic fermentation tank. It also includes a scum feed hopper, a scum temporary storage tank and a water ring pump. The scum feed hopper is arranged in the anaerobic fermentation tank and located at the top of the anaerobic fermentation tank.
[0004] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, it was found that the scum was pushed into the scum feed hopper by natural inflow and negative pressure, resulting in poor feeding effect. Since some scum was formed due to its own properties, it was sucked to the bottom of the fermentation tank and discharged. After being broken up by the stirring device, it will still float up to form scum, resulting in poor slag removal effect. Utility Model Content

The scum collecting bucket 24 is fixedly installed inside the scum collector housing 21, and the input end of the scum collecting bucket 24 is connected to the scum collector housing 21. A telescopic tube 25 is slidably installed on the outer side of the input end of the scum collecting bucket 24. The telescopic tube 25 passes through the scum collector housing 21. When the telescopic tube 25 is retracted, the input end is below the liquid level line. When the telescopic tube 25 is extended, the input end is above the liquid level line. One end of the telescopic tube 25 is frictionally connected to the outer side of the elliptical turntable 23.
[0025] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 4 The scum conveying mechanism 3 includes a water pipe 31, the output end of the water pipe 31 is fixedly passed through the tank body 1, the input end of the water pipe 31 passes through the scum collector shell 21 and is connected to the output end of the scum collecting bucket 24, and a water pump 32 is fixedly installed on the outside of one end of the water pipe 31 near the scum collecting mechanism 2.
[0026] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 5 The driving motor 22 drives the elliptical turntable 23 to rotate. The rotation of the elliptical turntable 23 drives the telescopic tube 25 to continuously expand and contract on the scum collecting bucket 24. The continuous expansion and contraction of the telescopic tube 25 forms a liquid level difference. Under the surface tension of the water and the eddy current effect, the scum and liquid floating on the liquid surface are sucked into the scum collecting bucket 24. The scum and liquid entering the scum collecting bucket 24 flow into the water pipe 31 and are quickly discharged to the output end of the water pipe 31 under the action of a water pump 32 installed on the water pipe 31.
[0027] The scum separation mechanism 4 includes a scum separator housing 41, a water inlet 42 is opened on the upper end of the scum separator housing 41 near the side of the tank body 1, the water inlet 42 is connected to the output end of the water pipe 31, and a filter plate 43 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the scum separator housing 41. The filter plate 43 is tilted, and a water baffle 44 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the filter plate 43. The water baffle 44 and the filter plate 43 form a water storage cavity inside the scum separator housing 41. The water baffle 44 and the scum separator housing are connected. 41 forms a slag storage cavity, and the bottom of the slag separator housing 41 is connected to a drain pipe 45, the input end of the drain pipe 45 is connected to the water storage cavity, and the output end of the drain pipe 45 passes through the tank body 1 and is connected to the inside of the tank body 1.

Under the action of the filter plate 43, the liquid enters the water storage cavity below the filter plate 43. Under the action of the filter plate 43, the scum slides to the lower end of the filter plate 43 and enters the scum storage cavity. When the liquid in the water storage cavity reaches a set volume, the water pump 2 46 and the solenoid valve 1 47 are opened. Under the action of the water pump 2 46, the liquid in the water storage cavity enters the tank body 1 through the drain pipe 45. When the liquid in the water storage cavity is less than a certain volume, the water pump 2 46 and the solenoid valve 1 47 are closed.

The scum and liquid entering the telescopic tube 25 enter the scum collecting bucket 24. The scum and liquid entering the scum collecting bucket 24 flow into the water pipe 31. Under the action of the water pump 32 installed on the water pipe 31, the scum and liquid are quickly discharged into the scum separation mechanism 4. The scum and liquid are separated under the action of the filter plate 43, so that the liquid The liquid enters the water storage cavity, and the slag enters the slag storage cavity. When the liquid in the water storage cavity reaches a set volume, the water pump 2 46 and the solenoid valve 1 47 are opened. Under the action of the water pump 2 46, the liquid in the water storage cavity enters the tank body 1 through the drain pipe 45. When the liquid in the water storage cavity is lower than a certain volume, the water pump 2 46 and the solenoid valve 1 47 are closed. When the slag in the slag storage cavity reaches a set volume, the solenoid valve 2 49 is opened, and the slag is discharged from the slag separation mechanism 4 through the slag discharge pipe 48. When the slag in the slag storage cavity is lower than a certain volume, the solenoid valve 2 49 is closed, and the slag cannot be completely discharged to prevent air from flowing back into the slag separation mechanism 4 and affecting the anaerobic reaction of the tank body 1.
