Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic membrane concentrator technology, and in particular to a modular and detachable ceramic membrane concentrator. Background Technology

[0002] Ceramic membranes, also known as inorganic ceramic membranes, are asymmetric membranes formed by preparing inorganic ceramic materials through a special process. The surface of the flat ceramic membrane is densely covered with micropores. Driven by the pressure difference across the membrane, the membrane acts as a filtration medium. Under certain pressure, when the feed liquid flows across the membrane surface, only water, inorganic salts, and small molecules are allowed to pass through the membrane, while large molecules such as suspended solids, colloids, and microorganisms in the water are prevented from passing through.

[0003] In the prior art, such as the Chinese patent CN207755862U entitled "A Ceramic Membrane Concentration and Separation Device", a raw material tank and a separation and concentration chamber are included. The raw material tank has a filter layer welded inside, and a circulation pipe is welded to the upper surface of the raw material tank, and the circulation pipe is connected to the raw material tank. A booster pump is installed on the circulation pipe. A conduit is connected to the lower side of the raw material tank, and a liquid pump is installed on the conduit. The other end of the conduit is connected to the separation and concentration chamber. A circulation pipe is connected to the lower side of the separation and concentration chamber away from the conduit. A first ceramic membrane, a second ceramic membrane, and a third ceramic membrane are welded sequentially inside the separation and concentration chamber. Discharge ports are opened on the bottom surface of the separation and concentration chamber between the first ceramic membrane and the separation and concentration chamber, between the first ceramic membrane and the second ceramic membrane, and between the second ceramic membrane and the third ceramic membrane. A filter chamber is welded to the bottom of the separation and concentration chamber. This ceramic membrane concentration and separation device has a simple structure, improves the concentration of the separated concentrate, and improves working efficiency.

[0004] While this type of ceramic membrane thickener effectively increases the concentration of the separated concentrate, it lacks the ability to stir the raw material liquid in the tank. This can lead to stratification or sedimentation of solid particles or components of different densities in the raw material liquid, resulting in uneven concentration and affecting the quality and purity of the final product. Furthermore, the absence of a scraper to clean the tank's inner wall allows viscous components to adhere, forming difficult-to-clean residues over time. This not only wastes raw materials but may also affect the processing of subsequent batches. The unevenness and adhesion of the raw material liquid directly reduce concentration efficiency, potentially extending the production cycle and impacting overall production efficiency and capacity. Therefore, improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the existing technology that the raw material liquid in the raw material tank cannot be stirred and the inner wall of the cleaning tank is not cleaned, and to propose a modular and detachable ceramic membrane concentrator.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a modular detachable ceramic membrane concentrator, comprising a concentration tank, a raw material tank, and a base. The concentration tank has a liquid outlet pipe on its side. A ceramic membrane body is slidably connected inside the concentration tank. A sealing ring is provided on the surface of the ceramic membrane body. A handle is fixedly connected to the surface of the ceramic membrane body. A liquid pump is provided on the surface of the base. A feed pipe is provided on the surface of the raw material tank. A filter plate is provided inside the raw material tank. An mounting plate is fixedly installed on the surface of the raw material tank. A motor is fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting plate.

A stirring blade is fixedly connected to the surface of the stirring rod. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to one end of rotating shaft A. A scraper is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod.

[0007] Preferably, the suction end of the pump extends into the interior of the raw material tank, and the discharge end of the pump extends into the interior of the concentration tank.

[0008] Preferably, the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft A, and gear A and gear B mesh and transmit power.

[0009] Preferably, the stirring rod is rotatably connected to the raw material box, the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the raw material box, and the number of the rotating shaft B, gear B, stirring rod and stirring blade is two sets.

[0010] Preferably, a limiting sleeve is fixedly installed on the side of the concentration tank, a limiting block is slidably connected inside the limiting sleeve, a guide rod is fixedly installed inside the limiting sleeve, and a spring is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod.

[0011] Preferably, the limiting block is slidably connected to the ceramic membrane body, and the limiting block is slidably connected to the guide rod.

[0012] Preferably, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner side of the limiting sleeve, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the side of the limiting block.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. In this utility model, the motor is started to drive the rotating shaft A and gear A to rotate. The rotation of gear A will transmit power to the rotating shaft B through gear B. The rotating shaft B will drive the stirring rod and stirring blade to rotate, thereby realizing the stirring of the raw material liquid. This can effectively promote the dispersion of solid particles or uneven components in the raw material liquid, and ensure that the concentration and temperature distribution of the raw material liquid are uniform throughout the container. This improves the filtration efficiency and concentration effect of the ceramic membrane. At the same time, the scraper can remove the raw material residues adhering to the inner wall of the raw material tank, preventing blockage and contamination, thereby ensuring the overall production efficiency and capacity.

[0015] 2. In this utility model, by pulling the limiting block to slide it out from the inside of the ceramic membrane body, and then grasping the handle and pulling, the ceramic membrane body can be taken out from the inside of the concentration tank. This achieves quick disassembly of the ceramic membrane body without tools, thereby greatly shortening the cleaning and replacement time of the membrane, improving the operating efficiency and availability of the equipment, reducing labor intensity, and also reducing maintenance costs.

However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0023] Example 1: As Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a modular detachable ceramic membrane concentrator, including a concentration tank 1, a raw material tank 2, and a base 3. A liquid outlet pipe 4 is provided on the side of the concentration tank 1. A ceramic membrane body 5 is slidably connected inside the concentration tank 1. A sealing ring 6 is provided on the surface of the ceramic membrane body 5. A handle 7 is fixedly connected to the surface of the ceramic membrane body 5. A liquid pump 8 is provided on the surface of the base 3. A feed pipe 9 is provided on the surface of the raw material tank 2. A filter plate 10 is provided inside the raw material tank 2. An mounting plate 11 is fixedly installed on the surface of the raw material tank 2. A motor 12 is fixedly installed on the surface of the mounting plate 11. A rotating shaft A13 and a rotating shaft B14 are rotatably connected inside the mounting plate 11. A gear A13 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft A13. 15. Gear B16 is fixedly connected to the surface of rotating shaft B14. Stirring rod 17 is fixedly connected to one end of rotating shaft B14. Stirring blade 18 is fixedly connected to the surface of stirring rod 17. Rotating rod 19 is fixedly connected to one end of rotating shaft A13. Scraper 20 is fixedly connected to the surface of rotating rod 19. The suction end of liquid pump 8 extends into the interior of raw material tank 2. The discharge end of liquid pump 8 extends into the interior of concentration tank 1. The output end of motor 12 is fixedly connected to one end of rotating shaft A13. Gear A15 and gear B16 mesh and drive each other. Stirring rod 17 is rotatably connected to raw material tank 2. Rotating rod 19 is rotatably connected to raw material tank 2. There are two sets of rotating shaft B14, gear B16, stirring rod 17 and stirring blade 18.

[0024] In this embodiment, the motor 12 is started, which drives the rotating shaft A13 and gear A15 to rotate. The rotation of gear A15 transmits power to the rotating shaft B14 through gear B16. The rotating shaft B14 drives the stirring rod 17 and stirring blade 18 to rotate, thereby stirring the raw material liquid. This can effectively promote the dispersion of solid particles or uneven components in the raw material liquid, ensuring that the concentration and temperature distribution of the raw material liquid are uniform throughout the container, thereby improving the filtration efficiency and concentration effect of the ceramic membrane body 5. At the same time, the rotating shaft A13 drives the rotating rod 19 to rotate, and the rotating rod 19 drives the scraper 20 to rotate. The scraper 20 can scrape off the raw material residues adhering to the inner wall of the raw material tank 2, preventing blockage and contamination, and ensuring the system operating efficiency.

[0025] Example 2: As Figures 1-4As shown, a limiting sleeve 21 is fixedly installed on the side of the concentration tank 1. A limiting block 22 is slidably connected inside the limiting sleeve 21. A guide rod 23 is fixedly installed inside the limiting sleeve 21. A spring 24 is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 23.

[0026] In this embodiment, the operator manually pulls the limiting block 22, causing it to slide along the guide rod 23 and disengage from the locked state with the ceramic membrane body 5. At the same time, the spring 24 is compressed, preparing potential energy for the reset of the limiting block 22. After the limiting block 22 slides out, the fixing of the ceramic membrane body 5 is released. The guide rod 23 and the spring 24 ensure the stable position of the ceramic membrane body 5 in the concentration tank 1. The spring 24 provides pre-tightening force to ensure that the sealing ring 6 is in tight contact with the concentration tank 1 to prevent leakage. At this time, the operator can grab the handle 7 and pull to remove the ceramic membrane body 5 from the inside of the concentration tank 1. This achieves quick disassembly of the ceramic membrane body 5 without tools, thereby greatly shortening the cleaning and replacement time of the ceramic membrane body 5, improving the operating efficiency and availability of the equipment, reducing labor intensity, and also reducing maintenance costs.

[0027] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: During use, the operator can start the motor 12, which drives the rotating shaft A13 and gear A15 to rotate. The rotation of gear A15 transmits power to the rotating shaft B14 through gear B16. The rotating shaft B14 drives the stirring rod 17 and stirring blade 18 to rotate, thereby stirring the raw material liquid. This effectively promotes the dispersion of solid particles or uneven components in the raw material liquid, ensuring uniform concentration and temperature distribution of the raw material liquid throughout the container, thus improving the filtration efficiency and concentration effect of the ceramic membrane body 5. At the same time, the rotating shaft A13 drives the rotating rod 19 to rotate, and the rotating rod 19 drives the scraper 20 to rotate. The scraper 20 can scrape off the raw material residue adhering to the inner wall of the raw material tank 2, preventing blockage and contamination, and ensuring the system's operating efficiency. When the operator... The operator manually pulls the limiting block 22, causing it to slide along the guide rod 23 and disengage from the locked state with the ceramic membrane body 5. At the same time, the spring 24 is compressed, preparing potential energy for the limiting block 22 to reset. After the limiting block 22 slides out, the fixing of the ceramic membrane body 5 is released. The guide rod 23 and the spring 24 ensure the stable position of the ceramic membrane body 5 in the concentration tank 1. The spring 24 provides pre-tightening force to ensure that the sealing ring 6 is in tight contact with the concentration tank 1 to prevent leakage. At this time, the operator can grab the handle 7 and pull to remove the ceramic membrane body 5 from the inside of the concentration tank 1. This allows for quick disassembly of the ceramic membrane body 5 without tools, which greatly shortens the cleaning and replacement time of the ceramic membrane body 5, improves the operating efficiency and availability of the equipment, reduces labor intensity, and also reduces maintenance costs.
