Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of depolymerization kettle, and particularly relates to a depolymerization kettle feeding device with improved efficiency. BACKGROUND

[0002] The depolymerization kettle is a device for processing high molecular polymers, which mainly functions to reduce the molecular weight of the high molecular polymers through a depolymerization reaction, so as to improve the processing performance thereof, and to realize the depolymerization reaction of the added materials through specific operating conditions.

[0003] Polylactic acid is a polyester polymer, which needs to be depolymerized in a depolymerization kettle during production. Generally, the materials are added into the depolymerization kettle in advance, and then the reaction is carried out. However, it is inconvenient to add materials in the middle of the process, and excessive one-time addition of materials will cause material accumulation and affect the depolymerization reaction. The existing patent application No. CN114435981A discloses a depolymerization kettle feeding device for polylactic acid production. The device intermittently pushes the materials into the feeding hopper through a pushing structure. Before the materials are pushed into the feeding hopper, the materials will be accumulated on the start-stop structure. When the amount of materials on the start-stop structure reaches a preset value, the start-stop structure is opened, and the materials are introduced into the depolymerization tank. The device can control the time of adding materials into the depolymerization tank and the amount of materials added into the depolymerization tank at one time. After the materials are added, the uniform material structure uniformly distributes the materials introduced into the depolymerization tank, thereby improving the depolymerization efficiency and avoiding material accumulation.

[0004] However, the device still has the following problems. The materials are added into the depolymerization kettle after being accumulated on the start-stop structure to a certain weight. Although the uniform material structure can slightly disperse the falling materials, most of the materials can be effectively dispersed only after falling to the bottom of the depolymerization kettle. A large amount of materials added into the depolymerization kettle need to be dispersed completely after the uniform material structure works for a period of time. In addition, the gap between adjacent push rods on the uniform material structure is large, which leads to poor dispersion effect of the materials, thereby affecting the depolymerization efficiency of the materials.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the present invention provides an efficient depolymerization reactor feeding device, including a base 1, a reactor body 2 and a reactor cover 3 disposed on the top of the reactor body 2 on the base 1, the reactor cover 3 being used to close the top of the reactor body 2 and being detachably connected to the reactor body 2, a feed pipe 7 being disposed on the top of the reactor cover 3, a sealing cap 8 being movably disposed on the feed pipe 7 for closing the top of the feed pipe 7, a rotating device 4 being disposed on the top of the reactor cover 3, a centrifugal dispersion structure 5 being connected to the bottom of the reactor cover 3 being connected to the rotating device 4, and a centrifugal blocking structure 6 being disposed at the bottom of the reactor cover 3.

[0033] The centrifugal dispersion structure 5 is used to receive the material added by the feed pipe 7 and disperse it by centrifugal rotation. The centrifugal blocking structure 6 is used to intercept part of the centrifugally dispersed material at different distances around the centrifugal dispersion structure 5.

[0034] In actual application, the material is added into the kettle body 2 through the feeding pipe 7, and after falling below the kettle cover 3, the material first falls onto the centrifugal dispersion structure 5. The centrifugal dispersion structure 5 is driven by the rotating device 4, so that the centrifugal dispersion structure 5 throws the falling material around in the process of rotation, and the centrifugal blocking structure 6 blocks the thrown material around the centrifugal dispersion structure 5, so that the material can be blocked at different positions by the centrifugal blocking structure 6 after being dispersed by the centrifugal dispersion structure 5, so that the dispersed material is attached to the centrifugal blocking structure 6 and falls into different positions in the kettle body 2, realizing the dispersion of the material and avoiding the accumulation of the material, and improving the efficiency of the material depolymerization.

[0035] The application directly disperses the material in the process of falling, so that the material is in a dispersed state when falling into the bottom of the kettle body 2, and the material does not accumulate, and subsequent dispersion of the material is not required, the rate of material depolymerization can be accelerated, the time required for depolymerization process is reduced, and the efficiency of depolymerization is improved.

[0036] The centrifugal dispersion structure 5 includes a connecting shaft 501 connected with the rotating device 4, and the end of the connecting shaft 501 is provided with a centrifugal disc 502. The centrifugal disc 502 is provided with a plurality of guide strips 503 in the radial direction, and the centrifugal disc 502 is located below the bottom of the feeding pipe 7.

[0037] After the material falls onto the centrifugal disc 502 through the feeding pipe 7, the rotating device 4 drives the connecting shaft 501 to drive the centrifugal disc 502 to rotate, so that the material is thrown out to the side of the centrifugal disc 502 under the action of centrifugal force, and the guide strips 503 limit the material from being translated and thrown out of the centrifugal disc 502, thereby improving the efficiency of centrifugal dispersion.

[0038] The upper surface of the centrifugal disc 502 is conical.

[0039] The conical surface of the centrifugal disc 502 facilitates the material to slide off the centrifugal disc 502, so that even if the centrifugal disc 502 stops rotating due to failure, the material can slide to the bottom of the kettle body 2 under the action of its own gravity for depolymerization reaction, and the material will not accumulate on the centrifugal disc 502 to affect the depolymerization of the material.

[0040] The guide strip 503 includes a plurality of segmented strips 504 arranged in the radial direction of the centrifugal disc 502 in sequence, and each segmented strip 504 is provided with inclined surfaces on both sides. The two inclined surfaces on each segmented strip 504 extend to the top of the segmented strip 504 and intersect, and one end of each segmented strip 504 towards the center of the centrifugal disc 502 is in the shape of a knife edge.

[0041] When the material slides along the surface of the centrifugal disc 502, the ends of the plurality of segmented strips 504 arranged in segments break the material that coagulates into blocks and moves, and can ensure that the material can be thrown out, and the knife-shaped ends of the segmented strips 504 can avoid the accumulation of the material, and the knife-shaped ends of the segmented strips 504 can also cut the material thrown out under the action of the centrifugal force, further breaking the coagulated material.

[0042] The feed pipe 7 includes a feeding pipe 701 arranged on the cover 3, and the bottom of the feeding pipe 701 extends obliquely downward below the cover 3 and above the centrifugal disc 502, and the bottom of the feeding pipe 701 is provided with a spiral pipe 702 that spirally extends downward around the circumference of the connecting shaft 501, and a plurality of feeding openings 703 are arranged on the spiral pipe 702.

[0043] The material is added from the feeding pipe 701, and after the added material enters the spiral pipe 702, the material is dropped onto the centrifugal disc 502 through the plurality of feeding openings 703 on the spiral pipe 702 and the port of the spiral pipe 702, so that the material is dispersed by the rotation of the centrifugal disc 502.

[0044] Due to the spiral shape of the spiral pipe 702, the dropped material can be more uniformly distributed on the centrifugal disc 502, further improving the uniformity of material dispersion.

[0045] The centrifugal blocking structure 6 includes a plurality of connecting rods 601 connected to the bottom of the cover 3, and the plurality of connecting rods 601 are jointly connected to an annular plate 602, and the centrifugal disc 502 is located at the center of the annular plate 602, and the bottom of the annular plate 602 is provided with a plurality of stopping pieces 603 that are uniformly distributed around the center of the annular plate 602.

[0046] The material thrown out by the centrifugal disc 502 contacts the stopping pieces 603 at different positions and stops moving in the direction of the inner wall of the kettle body 2 by the blocking of the stopping pieces 603, and then the material slides to the inner bottom of the kettle body 2 under the action of gravity, so that the dispersed material is subjected to depolymerization reaction.

[0047] The plurality of connecting rods 601 are used to improve the stability of the annular plate 602, and the height of the annular plate 602 is greater than the height of the centrifugal disc 502, so that the material dispersed by the centrifugal disc 502 can contact the plurality of stopping pieces 603.

[0048] The plurality of stopping pieces 603 are divided into a plurality of groups, and each group of stopping pieces 603 is uniformly distributed in a circular ring around the center of the annular plate 602, and adjacent two groups of stopping pieces 603 are arranged in a staggered manner.

[0049] The plurality of stop pieces 603 are arranged in staggered manner, so that part of the material contacts the stop piece 603 closest to the center of the annular plate 602, and part of the remaining material contacts the stop piece 603 of the next group through the space between the adjacent stop pieces 603, so that the material can contact the stop pieces 603 at different positions from the center of the annular plate 602, thereby enabling the material to be uniformly dispersed in the interior of the kettle body 2.

[0050] The stop piece 603 is an elastic piece in the shape of a circular arc, and the inner arc length of the stop piece 603 gradually decreases along the axis of the connecting shaft 501.

[0051] When the material contacts the stop piece 603, the material collides with the stop piece 603, causing the stop piece 603 to elastically deform slightly, thereby causing the material adhering to the stop piece 603 to be thrown off by the elastic effect of the stop piece 603. The bottom arc length of the stop piece 603 is the smallest, so that the material tends to gather at the bottom of the stop piece 603 when sliding down the stop piece 603, which is more convenient for the material to slide off the stop piece 603, thereby improving the falling speed of the material and further improving the depolymerization efficiency of the material.

[0052] The bottom of the kettle cover 3 is provided with an annular fixed plate 604, the bottom of the annular fixed plate 604 is provided with a first recess 605, the first recess 605 is provided with a first elastic connecting piece 606, the first elastic connecting piece 606 is connected with an annular movable plate 607 in sliding connection with the annular fixed plate 604, the bottom of the annular movable plate 607 is provided with a second recess 608, the second recess 608 is provided with a second elastic connecting piece 609, the second elastic connecting piece 609 is connected with an annular connecting plate 610 in sliding connection with the annular movable plate 607, and the plurality of connecting rods 601 are connected with the annular connecting plate 610.

[0053] The elastic deformation directions of the first elastic connecting piece 606 and the second elastic connecting piece 609 are perpendicular to each other, the elastic deformation direction of the first elastic connecting piece 606 is the same as the sliding direction of the annular movable plate 607, and the elastic deformation direction of the second elastic connecting piece 609 is the same as the sliding direction of the annular connecting plate 610.

[0054] When the intercepting sheet 603 contacts the centrifugally dispersed material, the material collides with the intercepting sheet 603, so that the intercepting sheet 603 is subjected to the force applied by the material. The force applied by the material to the intercepting sheet 603 can be decomposed into two perpendicular directions, and the directions of the two decomposed forces are the same as the elastic deformation directions of the first elastic connecting member 606 and the second elastic connecting member 609. Therefore, the annular connecting plate 610 slides on the annular movable plate 607 and elastically deforms the second elastic connecting member 609, and the annular movable plate 607 slides on the annular fixed plate 604 and elastically deforms the first elastic connecting member 606. Under the elastic force of the first elastic connecting member 606 and the second elastic connecting member 609, a shaking effect is formed on the intercepting sheet 603, so that the material can be more easily shaken off from the intercepting sheet 603, and the material is prevented from adhering to the intercepting sheet 603, thereby ensuring the normal progress of the material depolymerization reaction.

[0055] The above examples are only exemplary embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. The protection scope of the present application is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent replacements to the present application within the spirit and protection scope of the present application, and such modifications or equivalent replacements shall also be considered to fall within the protection scope of the present application.
