[0002] The catering industry is playing an increasingly important role in people's lives, resulting in a significant increase in the volume of catering wastewater. Catering wastewater is mainly a mixture of various wastewater generated during the operation of the catering industry, including swill and garbage from washing vegetables, rinsing rice, cooking, and washing dishes. Direct discharge or inadequate treatment of catering wastewater can put considerable pressure on urban sewage treatment plants.
[0003] Currently, most oil-water separation devices used in the catering industry involve pouring leftover kitchen waste into the device, with oil and water falling through a filter screen into the device. The oil and water are then separated by gravity or centrifugal force. However, the kitchen waste inside the filter screen contains a certain amount of moisture, which can cause leakage during transportation, affecting environmental hygiene and making cleaning difficult.
[0004] In view of this, we have studied and improved the existing problems and provided a hydrocyclone separator for oil recovery, aiming to solve the problems and improve the practical value through this technology. Utility Model Content

The drive motor 2 is mounted on the bottom surface of the housing 1, and the rotating shaft 3 of the drive motor 2 passes through the housing 1. The centrifugal wheel 4 is fixed to the bottom of the housing 1 on the rotating shaft 3. The lower part of the centrifugal wheel 4 is a circular plate structure, and the upper part of the centrifugal wheel 4 is provided with radially extending blades. The centrifugal wheel 4 is used to agitate the liquid inside the housing 1. The upper end of the rotating shaft 3 is provided with a protrusion that engages with the filter screen 5.

The tubular connecting part has two symmetrically arranged L-shaped slots, which are used to transmit the torque of the rotating shaft 3 and to axially limit the filter screen 5, while also facilitating the disassembly of the filter screen 5; the rotating shaft 3 drives the filter screen 5 to rotate, and the water contained in the kitchen waste inside the filter screen 5 is thrown out of the filter screen 5 under the action of centrifugal force, reducing liquid leakage during waste transportation; two sets of support wheels 7 are arranged in a circumferential array on the inner wall of the opening end of the housing 1, and the support wheels 7 abut against the outer wall of the filter screen 5; the support wheels 7 provide limiting support for the filter screen 5, improving the stability of the filter screen 5 when rotating.
[0027] The support frame 8 is fixed inside the housing 1; the sliding rod 9 is vertically arranged on one side of the rotating shaft 3, and the upper end of the sliding rod 9 is connected to the support frame 8; the sliding rod 9 has a rectangular strip structure in cross section, and the lower end of the sliding rod 9 is provided with a limiting protrusion; the sliding sleeve 10 is slidably sleeved on the sliding rod 9, and float balls 11 are fixedly connected to both sides of the sliding sleeve 10, and the float balls 11 drive the sliding sleeve 10 to slide on the sliding rod 9; the sliding sleeve 10 is provided with a through groove that cooperates with the sliding rod 9; the fixing ring 12 is fixed on one side of the sliding sleeve 10; one end of the connecting pipe 14 is inserted into the fixing ring 12, and the locking screw 13 is connected to the fixing ring 12 by thread rotation, and the end of the locking screw 13 abuts against the connecting pipe 14; the inlet end of the oil suction pump 15 is connected to the connecting pipe 14; the drain pipe 16 is fixed to the bottom of the housing 1, and a solenoid valve 17 is installed on the drain pipe 16; the support leg 18 is arranged on the bottom surface of the housing 1.

The centrifugal wheel 4 drives the liquid in the housing 1 to rotate. Under the action of centrifugal force, the water is located around the housing 1 and the oil is located near the rotating shaft 3, realizing rapid separation of oil and water. After the separation is completed, the centrifugal wheel 4 stops running. The buoyancy of the float ball 11 keeps the sliding sleeve 10 above the liquid surface. The oil suction pump 15 sucks up the floating oil on the liquid surface through the connecting pipe 14. The solenoid valve 17 opens and the water is discharged from the drain pipe 16. When there is a lot of kitchen waste in the filter screen 5, the filter screen 5 can be rotated in the opposite direction to lift the filter screen 5 upward and pour out the waste in the filter screen 5. It is simple to use.
[0030] In summary, this oil recovery cyclone separator uses a filter screen that is movably engaged with the upper end of a rotating shaft.

The filter screen is easy to install and disassemble, and convenient to use.
