Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of chemical raw material production equipment technology, specifically to an electrolytic high-level material pool sedimentation and cleaning system. Background Technology

[0002] Electrolysis is a common method for producing metals in the chemical engineering field. In some electrolysis processes, the anode and cathode rods are simply placed in the electrolytic cell and energized. However, for metals that are difficult to electrolyze, electrolytic aids are added to the electrolyte to promote the electrolysis process and improve efficiency. For example, in the electrolysis of manganese, a high concentration of ammonium sulfate is typically added to the electrolyte as an electrolytic aid. This increases the conductivity of the solution, lowers the electrolysis voltage, and thus reduces energy consumption during production. During electrolysis, materials or electrolysis additives need to be added to the electrolytic cell according to the progress of electrolysis. In existing electrolysis systems, material sedimentation or other precipitation may occur in the related equipment for feeding, loading, and discharging. For example, ammonium sulfate precipitation may occur in the discharge chute of the manganese electrolysis system. In order not to affect the next use of the chute, the sediment needs to be cleaned. Existing cleaning systems have defects such as incomplete cleaning and time-consuming. Moreover, for some high-level material pools, operators need to place the cleaning equipment at a position at a height of the material pool and set up a moving channel for the cleaning equipment to facilitate moving the cleaning equipment to different positions for cleaning, which is inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a sedimentation and cleaning system for electrolytic high-level material tanks to solve the problems mentioned above in the prior art.

[0004] This utility model provides a sedimentation and cleaning system for electrolytic high-level material tanks, including:

[0005] An electrolytic high-level material tank sedimentation and cleaning system includes: a crossbeam, multiple cleaning mechanisms independently slidably connected to the crossbeam, a U-shaped material tank disposed below the cleaning mechanism and including a support platform, a support platform disposed between adjacent U-shaped material tanks, a waste liquid integration tank disposed at opposite ends of the support platform, and an electrolytic cell.

[0006] The support platform includes a carrier plate, a first lifting arm, a second lifting arm, and a support arm. The first lifting arm and the second lifting arm are respectively connected to both ends of the carrier plate, and the support arm is hinged to the center of the carrier plate. The front of the carrier plate is connected to the U-shaped material pool. The cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning component and an aeration component. The aeration pipe of the aeration component passes through the bottom of the U-shaped material pool.

[0007] Optionally, the cleaning assembly includes a heater, a pressure regulating device, a robotic arm, and a scraper connected to the robotic arm, the working surface of which is in contact with the inner wall of the U-shaped material pool; the heater is connected to the pressure regulating device, and the outlet of the pressure regulating device is connected to a water pipe disposed on the U-shaped material pool.

[0008] Optionally, the water pipe is provided with a nozzle mechanism, which includes a spherical water control valve and a motor. The motor drives the spherical water control valve to spray a movable water column outward.

[0009] Optionally, the spherical water control valve includes: an outer cover and a hollow ball head, the outer cover being sleeved with the hollow ball head, a water outlet pipe being connected to the hollow ball head, and a motor being driven by the outer cover.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] The electrolytic high-level material tank sedimentation and cleaning system provided by this utility model features a cleaning mechanism that moves along a crossbeam to clean the U-shaped material tank below. This not only facilitates tank cleaning but also expands the cleaning range of a single cleaning mechanism. Furthermore, the U-shaped feeding or adding tank is positioned on a support platform including a lifting mechanism, allowing the tank to tilt along its length. This tilting not only facilitates the discharge of cleaning fluid and precipitated impurities but also allows for the placement of the waste liquid collection tank and the electrolytic cell requiring feeding at opposite ends of the tank, preventing waste from accidentally entering the electrolytic cell. Simultaneously, the aeration component in the cleaning mechanism is located at the bottom of the U-shaped tank. This not only facilitates the addition of auxiliary cleaning gases during cleaning but also keeps the cleaning fluid within the U-shaped tank dynamic, preventing secondary sedimentation and improving tank cleaning efficiency.

[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Furthermore, the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in one embodiment" appearing throughout this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Moreover, these specific features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0021] It should also be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that an article or terminal device that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such an article or terminal device. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the article or terminal device that includes that element.

[0022] Electrolysis is a common method for producing metals in the chemical industry. During electrolysis, materials or electrolytic additives need to be added to the electrolytic cell according to the progress of electrolysis. In existing electrolysis systems, material sedimentation or other precipitation can occur in the feeding, loading, and unloading equipment. For example, ammonium sulfate precipitate may appear in the discharge chute of a manganese electrolysis system. To avoid affecting the next use of the chute, the precipitate needs to be cleaned. Existing cleaning systems have drawbacks such as incomplete cleaning and time-consuming processes. Moreover, for some high-level material tanks, operators need to place the cleaning equipment at a height equivalent to the tank and set up a moving channel for the cleaning equipment to facilitate its movement to different locations for cleaning, which is inconvenient. Therefore, this utility model provides a high-level material tank sedimentation cleaning system for electrolysis to solve the problems of inconvenience and poor cleaning effect in the aforementioned existing solutions.

[0023] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2As shown, the electrolytic high-level material tank sedimentation and cleaning system provided by this utility model includes: a crossbeam 1, multiple cleaning mechanisms 2 independently slidably connected to the crossbeam 1, a U-shaped material tank 3 disposed below the cleaning mechanism 2 and including a support platform 31, a support platform 4 disposed between adjacent U-shaped material tanks 3, a waste liquid collection tank 5 disposed at the first end of the support platform 31, and an electrolytic cell 6 disposed at the second end of the U-shaped material tank 3, the first end and the second end being opposite each other; wherein, the support platform 31 includes a carrier plate 311, The system comprises a first lifting arm 312, a second lifting arm 313, and a support arm 314. The first lifting arm 312 and the second lifting arm 313 are respectively connected to both ends of the carrier plate 311. The support arm 314 is hinged to the center of the carrier plate 311. The front of the carrier plate 311 is connected to the U-shaped material tank 3. The cleaning mechanism 2 includes a cleaning component 21 and an aeration component. The aeration pipe 22 of the aeration component passes through the bottom of the U-shaped material tank 3. The cleaning component 21 moves along the crossbeam 1.

[0024] As described above, the present invention provides a cleaning mechanism 2 that moves on a crossbeam 1 to clean the U-shaped material pool 3 below it. This not only facilitates the cleaning of the material pool but also expands the cleaning range of a single cleaning mechanism 2. Furthermore, the U-shaped feeding or adding material pool is set on a support platform 31 containing a lifting mechanism. The interaction of the first lifting arm 312 and the second lifting arm 313 tilts the material pool along its length. This tilt not only facilitates the discharge of cleaning liquid and precipitated impurities from the material pool but also allows for the placement of the waste liquid collection tank 5 and the electrolytic cell 6 (which requires feeding) at opposite ends of the material pool, preventing waste from accidentally entering the electrolytic cell 6. Simultaneously, the aeration component in the cleaning mechanism 2 is located at the bottom of the U-shaped material pool 3. This not only facilitates the addition of auxiliary cleaning gases during cleaning but also keeps the cleaning liquid in the U-shaped material pool 3 dynamic, preventing secondary sedimentation and improving the cleaning efficiency of the material pool. In summary, the high-level material pool sedimentation and cleaning system provided by the present invention improves the convenience of cleaning high-level material pools while also enhancing the cleaning effect.

[0025] The first lifting arm 312 and the second lifting arm 313 mentioned above can be driven by a cylinder to push the piston. The piston is connected to the carrier plate 311. Under the pushing action of the cylinder, there is a height difference between the two ends of the carrier plate and the horizontal plane, thereby causing the U-shaped material pool 3 to tilt.

[0026] It should be noted that the aforementioned cleaning assembly 21 includes a heater, a pressure regulating device, a robotic arm 211, and a scraper 212 connected to the robotic arm 211. The working surface of the scraper 212 is in contact with the inner wall of the U-shaped material tank 3. The heater is connected to the pressure regulating device, and the outlet of the pressure regulating device is connected to a water pipe installed on the U-shaped material tank 3. The scraper 212 connected to the robotic arm 211 is used to clean the sediment adhering to the bottom or wall of the U-shaped material tank 3. The heater heats the cleaning fluid, which helps to dissolve the sediment and also helps to turbid oily impurities, thus improving the cleaning effect. In addition, the pressure regulating device is used to control the water pressure of the cleaning water pipe. Furthermore, the aforementioned support platform 4 is used for operators to walk around or check the material in the U-shaped material tank 3 or its cleaning effect, and also facilitates operators to check the status of the water pipe and the ball-shaped water control valve on the U-shaped material tank 3.

[0027] The aforementioned water pipe installed on the U-shaped material pool 3 is equipped with a nozzle mechanism, which includes a spherical water control valve and a motor. The motor drives the spherical water control valve to spray a movable water column outward. The spherical water control valve includes an outer cover and a hollow ball head. The outer cover is sleeved with the hollow ball head, the water outlet pipe is connected to the hollow ball head, and the motor is driven by the outer cover.

[0028] Because the material tank has a U-shaped structure, simply spraying water (i.e., spraying cleaning fluid) in one direction cannot cover the entire inner surface of the U-shaped material tank 3. Therefore, in this embodiment, a spherical water control valve is provided. After the water overflows from the hollow ball head, the outer cover includes several water outlet holes. The motor drives the outer cover to rotate. The rotation direction, rotation angle, and rotation speed of the outer cover determine the direction and spray rate of the water jet, thereby controlling the spray direction of the cleaning fluid water jet. This ensures that the entire inner wall of the U-shaped material tank 3 can be cleaned by the sprayed water jet, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the material tank.

[0029] It should be noted that, in addition to feeding materials into the electrolytic cell 6, the U-shaped material pool 3 in this embodiment can also serve as a feeding or discharging structure in other mechanisms, depending on the actual application. In different application environments, the cleaning mechanism 2 above it needs to be specifically integrated.

[0030] In some embodiments, the cleaning system provided by this utility model further includes a material guide trough, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the U-shaped material pool 3 and the electrolytic cell 6. A vibration component is connected to the side wall of the material guide trough to control the reciprocating oscillation of the material guide trough. Considering the large volume of the material pool, which makes it inconvenient to introduce materials into the electrolytic cell 6, and also considering the need to control the uniformity of material discharge, a material guide trough is provided between the electrolytic cell 6 and the U-shaped material pool 3 to facilitate the introduction of materials from the material pool into the electrolytic cell 6. At the same time, the vibration component is provided in the material guide trough to control the reciprocating oscillation of the material guide trough, which not only improves the uniformity of material discharge but also reduces the material adhering to the inner wall of the material guide trough, thus preventing material stagnation and affecting normal material discharge.

[0031] Finally, the electrolytic high-level material tank sedimentation and cleaning system provided by this utility model includes: a crossbeam 1, multiple cleaning mechanisms 2 independently slidably connected to the crossbeam 1, a U-shaped material tank 3 disposed below the cleaning mechanism 2 and including a support platform 31, a support platform 4 disposed between adjacent U-shaped material tanks 3, a waste liquid integration tank 5 disposed at opposite ends of the support platform 31, and an electrolytic cell 6; the support platform 31 includes a carrier plate 311, a first lifting arm 312, a second lifting arm 313, and a support arm 314, the first lifting arm 312 and the second lifting arm 313 are respectively connected to the two ends of the carrier plate 311, the support arm 314 is hinged to the center of the carrier plate 311, and the front of the carrier plate 311 is connected to the U-shaped material tank 3; the cleaning mechanism 2 includes a cleaning component 21 and an aeration component, the aeration pipe 22 of the aeration component is inserted through the bottom of the U-shaped material tank 3; the cleaning component 21 moves along the crossbeam 1. In this invention, the cleaning mechanism 2 moves on the crossbeam 1 to clean the U-shaped material tank 3 below it, which not only facilitates the cleaning of the material tank but also expands the cleaning range of a single cleaning mechanism 2. The support platform 31 allows the material tank to tilt along its length to facilitate the discharge of cleaning liquid and precipitated impurities. At the same time, the aeration component in the cleaning mechanism 2 keeps the cleaning liquid in the U-shaped material tank 3 dynamic, avoiding the formation of secondary sedimentation. Overall, this invention improves the convenience of cleaning high-level material tanks and enhances the cleaning effect.

[0032] The above embodiments merely illustrate the implementation of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
