[0042] Referring to Figures 1-4 The embodiment provides a kind of MBR process PVDF membrane cleaning device, comprising:

[0043] Two fixed frames 1, symmetrically arranged, for carrying other components;Each fixed frame 1 is provided with support 2 for placing pipeline;Pipeline is communicated with PVDF membrane;

[0044] Two cleaning mechanisms 3 are respectively arranged on the two sides of two fixed frames 1;

[0045] Cleaning mechanism 3 includes:

[0046] Telescopic mechanism 31 is fixed on fixed frame 1;The output end of telescopic mechanism 31 is lifting plate 32;Lifting plate 32 is fixed with guide rail 33, and guide rail 33 is arranged along the length direction of lifting plate 32;

[0047] Nozzle one 34 is fixed in the middle of guide rail 33;

[0048] Multiple nozzle two 35 are slidably installed on guide rail 33;Nozzle one 34 and multiple nozzle two 35 are communicated by hose 36;

[0049] Cleaning mechanism 3 further includes:

[0050] Adjusting mechanism 37 is used to adjust the position of multiple nozzle two 35;

[0051] The specific working process of the device is as follows: the two fixed frames 1 are vertically placed on the ground, the pipeline and the PVDF film communicated with the pipeline pass through the empty position of the cleaning mechanism 3 from the fixed frame 1, and then the two ends of the pipeline are respectively loaded on the two supporting pieces 2, at this time, the two cleaning mechanisms 3 are respectively located on the two sides of the PVDF film; the position of the plurality of nozzles is adjusted by operating the adjusting mechanism 37, so that the nozzle two 35 can cover the entire PVDF film in width; the input end of the hose 36 is communicated with the output end of the external cleaning agent, the nozzle one 34 and the nozzle two 35 are moved up and down by operating the telescopic mechanism 31 while spraying the cleaning agent, the sprayed cleaning agent impacts the surface of the PVDF film, and the attached pollutants are removed, and the angles of the nozzle one 34 and the nozzle two 35 are both downward, the downward spraying angle enables the cleaning agent to more effectively cover the surface of the film after being sprayed by the action of gravity; after the PVDF film is hung, the device can automatically flush the PVDF film, without manual cleaning by holding the nozzle, the labor intensity of the operator is reduced, and the device is suitable for different sizes of membrane assemblies and is more convenient to use.

[0052] As a preferred scheme of the utility model, referring to Figures 2-3 , the nozzle one 34 is fixedly connected with the guide rail 33 through the fixed block 38; each nozzle two 35 is slidably connected with the guide rail 33 through the sliding block 39;

[0053] Referring to Figure 5 , the adjusting mechanism 37 comprises:

[0054] The drive rod one 371 is fixedly connected with the connecting shaft 372 in the middle; the connecting shaft 372 is rotatably connected with the fixed block 38;

[0055] Two connecting rod mechanisms, the two connecting rod mechanisms are arranged in a circular array around the connecting shaft 372;

[0056] The connecting rod mechanism comprises:

[0057] A plurality of drive rod twos 373, the end portions of adjacent two drive rod twos 373 are rotatably connected; the middle portion of each drive rod two 373 is rotatably connected with a sliding block 39; one end of the drive rod two 373 closest to the drive rod one 371 is rotatably connected with one end portion of the drive rod one 371;

[0058] The specific working process of the adjusting mechanism 37 is as follows: when it is necessary to adjust the position of the nozzle two 35, the connecting shaft 372 is rotated, and the connecting shaft 372 drives the drive rod one 371 fixedly connected with the connecting shaft 372 to rotate; for example Figure 5As shown, since the driving rod one 371 is rotationally connected with the driving rod two 373, when the driving rod one 371 rotates, the rotationally connected point of the driving rod one 371 and the driving rod two 373 changes in both horizontal and vertical positions, so that the driving rod two 373 on the slider 392 rotates while the slider 392 moves, further drives the adjacent slider 392 and the nozzle two 35 to move, and since each driving rod two 373 is of the same specification, the distance between the adjacent nozzles two 35 is synchronously increased or decreased; the adjusting mechanism 37 can adjust the positions of the nozzles two 35 equidistantly through the cooperation of the driving rod one 371 and the connecting rod mechanism, and ensures the comprehensiveness and consistency of cleaning coverage.

[0059] If the connecting shaft 372 does not rotate by power, it needs to be manually adjusted by the operator, and since the connecting shaft 372 is inside, it is inconvenient to operate, and as a preferred scheme of the utility model, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the adjusting mechanism 37 further comprises:

[0063] After the positions of the nozzles two 35 are adjusted, according to the density of the nozzles two 35 and whether the nozzles two 35 can flush the membrane assembly, the valve 310 on the excess nozzle two 35 is closed to reduce the waste of the cleaning agent.

[0064] In order to make the longitudinal movement range of the nozzle two 35 larger and have a smaller volume, as a preferred scheme of the utility model, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The telescopic mechanism 31 is a scissor structure;

[0071] Since different membrane assemblies have different widths, if the position of the supporting piece 2 is fixed, the membrane assemblies that can be adapted are less, as a preferred scheme of the utility model, referring to Figure 1 , the supporting piece 2 is in sliding connection with the top plate 13;

[0072] The top plate 13 is provided with a locking piece 4 for fixing the position of the supporting piece 2; the locking piece 4 can adopt a bolt handle and the like;

[0073] The sliding of the supporting piece 2 enables the supporting piece 2 to be flexibly adjusted according to membrane assemblies of different widths, by sliding the supporting piece 2 to a suitable position and using the locking piece 4 to fix, it is ensured that the supporting piece 2 can stably carry membrane assemblies of various sizes, this mode greatly improves the adaptability and universality of the device, so that a single cleaning equipment can be applied to MBR process PVDF membranes of various specifications, reduces the demand for special equipment, reduces the cost, and enhances the flexibility and efficiency of operation.

[0074] As a preferred scheme of the utility model, referring to Figure 1 , a notch in communication with the side surface is formed in the top of the supporting piece 2, and the inner wall of the notch is in arc shape;

[0075] The pipeline is placed in the notch, and the arc-shaped inner wall of the notch can better fit the shape of the circular pipeline, provide more stable support, and prevent the pipeline from shaking or displacing during the cleaning process.
