[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The pretreatment equipment for recycling waste lithium batteries according to a preferred embodiment of the present application will be described in detail below, which comprises a pulping device 10 for mixing the powder obtained after processing the waste lithium batteries with water to obtain a uniformly mixed slurry for subsequent processing.

[0025] Reference Figures 3 to 4The pulp preparation device 10 comprises a pulp preparation body 11, which comprises a pulp preparation cylinder 111 and a material mixing plate set 112. The pulp preparation cylinder 111 has a material feeding chamber 11101 and a mixing chamber 11102 located at the bottom of the material feeding chamber 11101 and communicating with the material feeding chamber 11101. The top end of the pulp preparation cylinder 111 forms a material feeding port 11103 communicating with the material feeding chamber 11101, which is used to introduce powder into the material feeding chamber 11101. The pulp preparation cylinder 111 also has at least one water inlet port 11104 communicating with the material feeding chamber 11101, which is used to supply water to the material feeding chamber 11101. The material mixing plate set 112 comprises at least one first material mixing plate 1121 and at least one second material mixing plate 1122, which are arranged vertically and spaced apart in the mixing chamber 11102. In the direction in which the center of the mixing chamber 11102 extends to the side wall of the mixing chamber 11102 formed by the pulp preparation cylinder 111, the distance between the upper surface of the first material mixing plate 1121 and a horizontal plane located below it gradually decreases, and the distance between the upper surface of the second material mixing plate 1122 and a horizontal plane located below it gradually increases. Among the vertically spaced first material mixing plates 1121 and second material mixing plates 1122, one first material mixing plate 1121 is located at the uppermost layer, and one second material mixing plate 1122 is located at the lowermost layer. The first material mixing plate 1121 forms a plurality of first material flow holes 112101 near the circumferential wall of the pulp preparation cylinder 111, and each of the plurality of first material flow holes 112101 corresponds to the edge of the second material mixing plate 1122 located below it. The slurry above the first material mixing plate 1121 flows downward through the first material flow hole 112101 to flow to the edge of the second material mixing plate 1122 located below it. The second material mixing plate 1122 forms a second material flow hole 112201 coaxial with the pulp preparation cylinder 111 and corresponding to the center of the first material mixing plate 1121, through which the slurry above the second material mixing plate 1122 flows downward to flow to the center of the first material mixing plate 1121 located below it or outside the pulp preparation cylinder 111. After the slurry composed of powder introduced by the material feeding port 11103 and water introduced by the water inlet port 11104 is introduced from the material feeding chamber 11101 to the mixing chamber 11102, the slurry flows over the vertically spaced first material mixing plates 1121 and second material mixing plates 1122 in sequence. The slurry first flows to the center of the first material mixing plate 1121 and flows to its edge under the action of gravity for mixing, and the slurry first flows to the edge of the second material mixing plate 1122 and flows to its center under the action of gravity for mixing.The second material flow hole 112201 of the second material uniformizing plate 1122 at the bottom layer is used to discharge the mixed slurry in the mixing chamber 11102.

[0026] In this way, the upper surfaces of the first material uniformizing plate 1121 and the second material uniformizing plate 1122 guide the flow of the slurry and the gravity, and the mixing operation is repeated to finally obtain the mixed slurry. Compared with the existing stirring mixer, the device does not need power, is energy-saving and environmentally friendly, has low operation cost, does not need to stop, can meet the continuous feeding of large batches, realizes continuous mixing, has good mixing effect, and has higher efficiency.

[0027] Preferably, the first material uniformizing plate 1121 and the second material uniformizing plate 1122 are each provided with three. In this way, the slurry entering the mixing chamber 11102 from the feeding chamber 11101 is mixed for six times, so that the mixing effect of the finally mixed slurry is guaranteed.

[0028] Preferably, the second material flow hole 112201 gradually decreases in cross-sectional area from top to bottom, so as to guide the flow of the slurry, so that the slurry can be concentrated and guided to the center of the first material uniformizing plate 1121 arranged below the second material uniformizing plate 1122, and also facilitates the concentrated discharge of the mixed slurry.

The uniform distribution member 12 corresponds to the feeding chamber 11101. The top end of the uniform distribution member 12 is open and can accommodate slurry. The slurry flowing from the feeding chamber 11101 to the mixing chamber 11102 is first gathered in the uniform distribution member 12. When the slurry in the uniform distribution member 12 reaches its maximum accommodation capacity, the slurry overflows from the top end of the uniform distribution member 12 and flows down along the peripheral wall to flow above the first material uniformizing plate 1121 at the uppermost layer. In this process, the uniform distribution member 12 distributes the flow of the slurry to ensure that the slurry falling on the surface of the first material uniformizing plate 1121 at the uppermost layer is uniformly distributed near the center to prevent the mixing effect from being affected by uneven distribution of the slurry when the slurry flows to the edge. In addition, the slurry is temporarily gathered in the uniform distribution member 12, which is beneficial to mixing, and the slurry in the uniform distribution member 12 is impacted by the slurry continuously flowing to the uniform distribution member 12, so as to accelerate the mixing.

The mixing member 13 is located on the flow path of the powder introduced into the feeding chamber 1101 through the feeding port 1103. The powder introduced through the feeding port 1103 is scattered by impacting on the mixing member 13, so that the powder can be fully contacted with water.

[0031] Preferably, the water flowing through the water inlet 11104 is sprayed onto the upper surface of the mixing member 13, so that the slurry formed by the powder and water is preliminarily mixed on the upper surface of the mixing member 13.

[0032] Preferably, the mixing member 13 is provided with two mixing members 13, which are oppositely arranged and spaced apart by a predetermined height. The water inlet 11104 is provided with two water inlets 11104.
