Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil-water separation equipment, and in particular to an oil-water separation device for automotive lubricant processing. Background Technology
[0002] An oil-water separator is a device that separates oil and water based on the differences in their physical properties. During the production and processing of automotive lubricants, wastewater containing a mixture of oil and water is generated. This wastewater needs to be treated by an oil-water separator to separate the oil and water before further treatment.
[0003] Patent document CN219174236U discloses an "oil-water separator, relating to the field of wastewater treatment technology. The main body of the device includes a first separation tank, a flow stabilizer plate, a water inlet, a connecting pipe, and a first oil outlet. Oil-water separation is achieved by discharging the oil-water mixture into the device through the water inlet pipe. The separated oil can be continuously discharged from the oil outlet, allowing the device to operate continuously with good separation effect, thus improving the efficiency of oil-water separation. The flow stabilizer plate inside the device helps reduce liquid sloshing within the device." While the description of "oil-water separation by discharging the oil-water mixture into the device through the water inlet pipe" is somewhat simplistic, it does not fully capture the essence of the patent description. The separated oil can be continuously discharged from the oil outlet, allowing the device to operate continuously with good separation effect, thus improving the efficiency of oil-water separation. The device also has a flow stabilizer to reduce liquid sloshing inside. However, when wastewater first enters the first separation tank, due to the low liquid level, some oil in the wastewater will enter the second separation tank through the connecting pipe. When the liquid level in the second separation tank rises to the outlet, it will be discharged through the outlet. Furthermore, because the opening and closing of the connecting pipe is uncontrollable, when only oil remains in the first separation tank, the residual oil will flow into the second separation tank through the outlet, affecting the oil-water separation effect. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide an oil-water separation device for automotive lubricant processing, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] An oil-water separation device for automotive lubricant processing includes a separation chamber. A partition plate is fixedly installed in the center of the separation chamber, dividing the space inside the separation chamber into an oil chamber and a liquid chamber at the front and rear ends of the partition plate. A connecting square tube is fixedly installed through the lower end of the front and back sides of the partition plate. A liquid inlet pipe is fixedly installed through the top end of the back side of the separation chamber. A water outlet pipe is fixedly installed through the bottom end of the front side of the separation chamber. A sealing component is provided inside the separation chamber and behind the partition plate. An adjustment component is provided on one side of the separation chamber.
[0007] The sealing assembly includes an inclined sealing plate for sealing the connecting square tube. Several traction ropes are fixedly installed at the rear end of the sealing plate, and the top ends of the several traction ropes are fixedly installed with the same float.
[0008] Specifically, it can complete oil-water separation, and at the same time, it can prevent oil from entering the liquid chamber along with water through the connecting square tube when the initial liquid level in the separation tank is low, thus affecting the oil-water separation effect.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the sealing assembly also includes metal sliders fixedly installed on both sides of the float, a rotating shaft movably installed between the inner walls of the front and rear ends of the separation box, and several limiting pulleys fixedly installed on the outer ring of the rotating shaft. The limiting pulleys are used to limit the traction rope, and the traction rope is slidably connected to the limiting pulleys. Lifting grooves are provided through the inner walls of the front and rear ends of the separation box, and the metal sliders are slidably connected to the separation box through the lifting grooves.
[0010] Specifically, it facilitates the movement of the sealing plate by raising and lowering the pontoon.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, limiting grooves are provided through the inner walls of both the front and rear ends of the separation box, and the sealing plate is slidably connected to the separation box through the limiting grooves.
[0012] Specifically, preventing oil from entering the liquid chamber facilitates oil-water separation.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a stable partition is fixedly installed between the two sides of the separation box and behind the partition plate. A flow groove is opened at the front and rear ends of the stable partition. A main oil outlet pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rear end of the separation box. A secondary oil outlet pipe is fixedly installed at the rear ends on both sides of the main oil outlet pipe. The end of the secondary oil outlet pipe penetrates the rear end of the separation box.
[0014] Specifically, it facilitates the stratification of wastewater. Water is discharged through the outlet pipe, and when the upper layer of oil in the wastewater overflows the flow tank, the oil flows into the main outlet pipe through the auxiliary oil outlet pipe and is discharged, thus facilitating oil-water separation.
[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the adjustment component includes an adjustment groove formed on the outside of one side of the separation box. The adjustment groove and the metal slider are in the same vertical plane. A magnet is provided inside the adjustment groove. A slip ring is fixedly installed on one side of the magnet. A slide rod is provided through the upper and lower ends of the slip ring, and the slip ring and the slide rod are slidably connected. The top of the adjustment groove is higher than the top of the lifting groove.
[0016] Specifically, it allows for easy adjustment of the pontoon height according to needs.
[0017] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the adjustment assembly also includes a base fixedly installed at the upper and lower ends of the slide bar, the base being fixedly connected to the separation box, and a metal fixing block being fixedly installed on the top of the adjustment slide groove.
[0018] Specifically, this is to prevent magnets from interfering with the raising and lowering of the pontoons.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] This invention, through the combination of a sealing component and an adjusting component, allows wastewater to be introduced into the separation tank via an inlet pipe. The wastewater then enters the oil chamber through the bottom of a stabilizing baffle. As the liquid level rises, the float rises synchronously with the liquid level. During this rise, a metal slider slides in a lifting groove to limit the float's movement and prevent it from moving back and forth. As the float rises, a traction rope pulls the sealing plate, moving it away from the rear end of the connecting square tube. Water in the lower layer enters the liquid chamber of the separation tank through the connecting square tube and is discharged through the outlet pipe, while oil remains in the oil chamber, facilitating oil-water separation. Simultaneously, this design prevents oil from entering the liquid chamber along with water when the initial liquid level in the separation tank is low, thus avoiding interference with oil-water separation. When only oil remains in the oil chamber, the sealing plate seals the connecting square tube, preventing oil from entering the liquid chamber. Attached Figure Description

[0031] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0032] like Figures 1-6 As shown, an oil-water separation device for automotive lubricant processing includes a separation box 1. A partition plate 2 is fixedly installed in the center of the separation box 1. The partition plate 2 divides the space inside the separation box 1 at the front and rear ends into an oil chamber and a liquid chamber. A connecting square tube 8 is fixedly installed through the lower end of the front and back sides of the partition plate 2. An inlet pipe 7 is fixedly installed through the top end of the back side of the separation box 1. A water outlet pipe 6 is fixedly installed through the bottom end of the front side of the separation box 1. A sealing component 4 is provided inside the separation box 1 and behind the partition plate 2. An adjustment component 5 is provided on one side of the separation box 1.
[0033] The sealing assembly 4 includes an inclined sealing plate 401, which is used to seal the connecting square tube 8. Several traction ropes 402 are fixedly installed at the rear end of the sealing plate 401, and the same float 403 is fixedly installed at the top end of the several traction ropes 402.
[0034] Specifically, when separating oil and water in the wastewater generated during the processing of automotive lubricants, the wastewater is introduced into the oil chamber of the separator 1 through the inlet pipe 7. As the liquid level rises, the float 403 rises synchronously with the liquid level. During the rise of the float 403, the traction rope 402 pulls the sealing plate 401 to move, removing the sealing plate 401 from the rear end of the connecting square pipe 8. Since the oil in the wastewater is lighter than the water and forms a stratification, the water in the lower layer enters the liquid chamber of the separator 1 through the connecting square pipe 8 and is discharged through the outlet pipe 6, while the oil remains in the oil chamber, which facilitates the oil-water separation. At the same time, it can prevent the oil from entering the liquid chamber along with the water through the connecting square pipe 8 when the initial liquid level in the separator 1 is low, thus affecting the oil-water separation effect.
[0035] The sealing assembly 4 also includes metal sliders 404 fixedly installed on both sides of the float 403, a rotating shaft 405 movably installed between the inner walls of the front and rear ends of the separation box 1, and several limiting pulleys 406 fixedly installed on the outer ring of the rotating shaft 405. The limiting pulleys 406 are used to limit the traction rope 402, and the traction rope 402 is slidably connected to the limiting pulleys 406. Lifting grooves 10 are provided through the inner walls of the front and rear ends of the separation box 1, and the metal sliders 404 are slidably connected to the separation box 1 through the lifting grooves 10.
[0036] Specifically, during the process of the float 403 rising and falling with the liquid surface, the metal slider 404 slides in the lifting chute 10 to limit the float 403 and prevent it from moving back and forth. At the same time, the limiting pulley 406, in conjunction with the rotating shaft 405, limits the traction rope 402 and adjusts the traction direction, so that the sealing plate 401 can be moved by the rising and falling of the float 403.
[0037] Limiting grooves 12 are provided on the inner walls of both the front and rear ends of the separation box 1, and the sealing plate 401 is slidably connected to the separation box 1 through the limiting grooves 12.
[0038] Specifically, in the initial state, when the liquid level is lower than the initial position of the float 403, under the action of gravity, the sealing plate 401 is located at the bottom of the limiting slide 12 and blocks the connecting square tube 8, preventing oil from floating on the upper layer and entering the connecting square tube 8 when the liquid level is low. When the liquid level is level with the bottom of the float 403, as the liquid level rises, the float 403 rises with the liquid level. With the help of the traction rope 402, the sealing plate 401 is pulled to slide upward along the limiting slide 12, releasing the sealing plate 401 from blocking the connecting square tube 8. The water in the lower layer enters the liquid cavity through the connecting square tube 8, preventing oil from entering the liquid cavity, which is conducive to achieving oil-water separation.
[0039] A stabilizing partition 3 is fixedly installed between the two sides of the separator 1 and behind the partition 2. A flow channel 9 is provided through the front and rear ends of the stabilizing partition 3. A main oil outlet pipe 11 is fixedly installed through the bottom of the rear end of the separator 1. A secondary oil outlet pipe 13 is fixedly installed on both sides of the main oil outlet pipe 11 near the rear end. The end of the secondary oil outlet pipe 13 passes through the rear end of the separator 1.
[0040] Specifically, when wastewater generated during automotive lubricant processing enters the separator 1 through the inlet pipe 7, the wastewater enters the oil chamber through the bottom of the stabilizing baffle 3. The stabilizing baffle 3 separates the wastewater, preventing water flow fluctuations caused by the inflow of wastewater. The wastewater is then transferred to the oil chamber in front of the stabilizing baffle 3, which helps stabilize the wastewater level and facilitates the stratification of the wastewater. The water is discharged through the outlet pipe 6. When the upper oil level in the wastewater overflows the flow channel 9, the oil flows through the auxiliary oil outlet pipe 13 into the main oil outlet pipe 11 and is discharged, thus facilitating oil-water separation.
[0041] The adjustment assembly 5 includes an adjustment slide 501 located outside one side of the separation box 1. The adjustment slide 501 and the metal slider 404 are in the same vertical plane. A magnet 503 is provided inside the adjustment slide 501. A slip ring 504 is fixedly installed on one side of the magnet 503. A slide rod 506 is provided through the upper and lower ends of the slip ring 504, and the slip ring 504 and the slide rod 506 are slidably connected. The top of the adjustment slide 501 is higher than the top of the lifting slide 10.
[0042] Specifically, when the sliding ring 504 slides along the slide bar 506, it drives the magnet 503 to slide inside the adjusting groove 501. During the sliding process of the magnet 503, it attracts the metal slider 404, which in turn drives the float 403 to rise and fall synchronously with the magnet 503 and stay at the designated position, so that the height of the float 403 can be adjusted as needed.
[0043] The adjustment assembly 5 also includes a base 505 fixedly installed at the upper and lower ends of the slide bar 506. The base 505 is fixedly connected to the separation box 1, and a metal fixing block 502 is fixedly installed on the top of the adjustment slide 501.
[0044] Specifically, the magnet 503 is moved to the top of the adjusting groove 501 by sliding the slip ring 504, and the magnet 503 is fixed by the metal fixing block 502 to prevent the magnet 503 from interfering with the raising and lowering of the float 403.
[0045] It should be noted that this utility model is an oil-water separation device for automotive lubricant processing. In use, firstly, the magnet 503 is moved to the top of the adjusting groove 501 by sliding the sliding ring 504, and the magnet 503 is fixed by the metal fixing block 502 to avoid the magnet 503 interfering with the lifting and lowering of the float 403.
[0046] After adjustment, wastewater is introduced into separation tank 1 through inlet pipe 7. The wastewater enters the oil chamber through the bottom of stabilizing baffle 3. The stabilizing baffle 3 separates the wastewater to avoid water flow fluctuations caused by the inflow of wastewater. The wastewater is transferred to the oil chamber in front of the stabilizing baffle 3, which is conducive to the stability of the wastewater liquid level and facilitates the stratification of wastewater. At the same time, when the upper oil level in the wastewater overflows the flow channel 9, the oil flows into the main oil outlet pipe 11 through the auxiliary oil outlet pipe 13 and is discharged.
[0047] As the liquid level rises, the float 403 rises synchronously with the liquid level. During the process of the float 403 rising with the liquid level, the metal slider 404 slides in the lifting chute 10 to limit the float 403 and prevent it from moving back and forth. During the rise of the float 403, the traction rope 402 pulls the sealing plate 401 to move, removing the sealing plate 401 from the rear end of the connecting square tube 8. At the same time, the traction rope 402 is limited by the limiting pulley 406 and the rotating shaft 405, and the traction direction is adjusted to facilitate the movement of the sealing plate 401 by the rise and fall of the float 403. Since the oil in the wastewater is lighter than the water and forms a stratification, the water in the lower layer enters the liquid cavity in the separation tank 1 through the connecting square tube 8 and is discharged through the water outlet pipe 6, while the oil remains in the oil cavity, which facilitates the oil-water separation. At the same time, it can prevent the oil from entering the liquid cavity along with the water through the connecting square tube 8 when the initial liquid level in the separation tank 1 is low, thus affecting the oil-water separation effect.
[0048] As the oil-water separation process proceeds, when oil overflows from the connecting square tube 8, it indicates that only oil remains in the oil chamber. At this point, the valve at the inlet pipe 7 is closed, and the sliding ring 504 drives the magnet 503 to slide downward along the adjusting groove 501. During the sliding process, the magnet 503 attracts the metal slider 404, which in turn drives the float 403 to descend. At this time, the sealing plate 401 slides downward along the limiting groove 12 and re-seals the rear end of the connecting square tube 8. Then, the main oil outlet pipe 11 is opened to drain the remaining oil in the oil chamber. After the oil is drained, the sealing plate 401 is reopened through the adjusting component 5, so that the remaining oil in the connecting square tube 8 flows back into the oil chamber and is discharged through the main oil outlet pipe 11.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
