Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a manual tool for separating parts, specifically a top membrane shell end cap tool. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of wastewater treatment, reverse osmosis technology is often used to treat wastewater, thus requiring the use of reverse osmosis equipment.
[0003] After a period of use, reverse osmosis (RO) equipment requires maintenance. During maintenance, tools are needed to disassemble the membrane housing end cap and its connected membrane modules (such as filters, adapters, and protective sleeves). However, some existing membrane modules have large, bulky sections, making it difficult to remove them without additional tools, such as hammering or knocking the membrane module off. The lack of specialized tools for disassembling these membrane modules makes the process quite laborious. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a top membrane housing end cap tool, which makes it convenient for operators to disassemble membrane modules with large, bulging heads.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a top membrane shell end cap tool, comprising:
[0006] Threaded rod;
[0007] The adapter is screwed to the threaded rod and is coaxially sleeved on the outside of the threaded rod. One end of the adapter can be detachably connected to the end cap of the diaphragm housing.
[0008] The connector has one end rotatably connected to one end of the threaded rod, and the connector and the threaded rod are coaxially arranged. The other end of the connector can be inserted into the membrane housing end cap and contact the membrane module.
[0009] Preferably, the connector includes a bearing, a circular connecting plate, and an insert head. The inner ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod, the outer ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting plate, and the other end of the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the insert head.
[0010] More preferably, the insertion head is conical, and the large-diameter end of the insertion head is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting plate.
[0011] Preferably, one end of the adapter is provided with an external thread, and the adapter is detachably connected to the membrane housing end cap through the external thread.
[0012] In a further preferred embodiment, the other end of the adapter is provided with a first hexagonal connector, and one end of the threaded rod passes through the hexagonal connector and is screwed onto the adapter.
[0013] Preferably, the other end of the threaded rod is provided with a second hexagonal joint.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] In use, the membrane housing end cap tool of this utility model involves first disassembling the membrane assembly with the large, swollen head, and then removing the main body of the membrane housing end cap from the membrane housing. This utility model utilizes a threaded rod connected to an adapter; by rotating the threaded rod, it penetrates deeper into the membrane housing end cap, thereby pushing the membrane assembly down. The overall structure is simple and easy to operate. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this embodiment provides a membrane housing end cap tool 40, including a threaded rod 41, an adapter 43, and a connector 44, wherein the threaded rod 41, adapter 43, and connector 44 are coaxially arranged. The adapter 43 can be coaxially and detachably mounted on the membrane housing end cap 30, which is installed inside the membrane housing 10. One end of the threaded rod 41 passes through the adapter 43, and the connector 44 is rotatably connected to the end of the threaded rod 41 inserted into the membrane housing end cap 30. Simultaneously, the end of the connector 44 can be inserted into the membrane assembly installed in the membrane housing end cap 30, and abuts against the end of the membrane assembly. Then, by rotating the threaded rod 41, the threaded rod 41 is continuously pushed deeper into the membrane housing end cap 30, thereby ejecting the membrane assembly. The membrane assembly in this embodiment is a filter with a large head 20 structure.
[0027] Specifically, in this embodiment, as described above, the adapter 43 is screwed to the threaded rod 41, and the adapter 43 is coaxially sleeved on the outside of the threaded rod 41. One end of the adapter 43 is provided with an external thread 431, and the adapter 43 is detachably connected to the diaphragm end cap 30 through the external thread 431. In addition, to facilitate fixing the adapter 43, a first hexagonal connector 42 is provided at the other end of the adapter 43 (the first hexagonal connector 42 is sleeved on the outside of the threaded rod 41, and the two are not screwed together). The threaded rod 41 passes through the first hexagonal connector 42 and is screwed to the adapter 43. The operator can use a tool to clamp and rotate the first hexagonal connector 42 to fix the adapter 43 to the diaphragm end cap 30.
[0028] In this embodiment, the connector 44 includes a bearing 441, a circular connecting plate 442, and an insertion head 443. The inner ring of the bearing 441 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 41, and the outer ring of the bearing 441 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting plate 442. The other end of the connecting plate 442 is fixedly connected to the insertion head 443. Furthermore, to facilitate the insertion of the insertion head 443 into the membrane assembly and to achieve alignment, the insertion head 443 in this embodiment is tapered, with its larger diameter end fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting plate 442. The connecting plate 442 rests against the end of the membrane assembly but is not inserted into the membrane assembly.
[0029] In this embodiment, a second hexagonal connector 45 is provided at the other end of the threaded rod 41 to facilitate rotation. The rotation of the threaded rod 41 is achieved by installing a detachable handle on the second hexagonal connector 45.
[0030] Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
