Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: a sodium phosphate purification device, comprising a dissolving tank 110, a filtering tank 120, a crystallizing tank 130, and a centrifuge 140. The dissolving tank 110 has a feed inlet at its top. A first rotating shaft 111 is rotatably mounted between the two sides of the inner wall of the dissolving tank 110. Multiple stirring rods 112 are fixedly mounted on the outer side of the first rotating shaft 111. A motor 113 is fixedly mounted at the top of the first rotating shaft 111. The bottom of the dissolving tank 110 is clamped to the filtering tank 120. The filtering tank 120 contains multiple layers of filter membrane 121. A water inlet pipe is provided on the outer side of the filtering tank 120. The top of the filtering tank 120 is open. Symmetrically arranged arc-shaped holes are provided at the bottom of the filtering tank 120. A round seat 122 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the inner wall of the filtering tank 120.

The stirring assembly is connected to the filter membranes 121 and the first rotating shaft 111 through a plug-in assembly. A centrifuge 140 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the crystallization tank 130. A second positioning ring 124 is fixedly installed on the outside of the filter tank 120. The bottom of the second positioning ring 124 is slidably sleeved into the crystallization tank 130. The top of the crystallization tank 130 is also open. A second slider is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the second positioning ring 124. A second sliding groove matching the second slider is provided on the outer wall of the crystallization tank 130.

[0029] In some specific implementation schemes, a second annular heating tube is fixedly installed on the outside of the dissolving tank 110, and a first discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the dissolving tank 110. A solenoid valve is installed on the first discharge pipe. Multiple second annular heating tubes are used to heat the material inside the dissolving tank 110 from multiple angles, resulting in a more uniform heat distribution and effectively preventing localized overheating or undercooling, thus improving the dissolving effect. The combination of the first discharge pipe and the solenoid valve facilitates precise control of the timing and flow rate of the dissolved solution discharge, ensuring an appropriate amount of solution enters the filtration stage, avoiding waste and guaranteeing stable operation of subsequent processes. For example, when it is necessary to adjust the production rhythm, the discharge volume can be flexibly controlled through the solenoid valve.

[0030] In some specific implementations, a first positioning ring 114 is fixedly installed on the bottom outer side of the dissolving tank 110. The bottom end of the first positioning ring 114 is slidably sleeved on the top of the filter tank 120, and a first slider is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the first positioning ring 114. The outer wall of the filter tank 120 is provided with a first sliding groove that matches the first slider to prevent shaking or displacement during equipment operation and ensure the structural stability of the entire purification device. On the other hand, this design makes the installation and disassembly of the dissolving tank 110 and the filter tank 120 easy and convenient. When it is necessary to clean, maintain or replace parts of one of the tanks, the operator can easily separate or install along the direction of the sliding groove, reducing the difficulty of maintenance and saving maintenance time and labor costs.

[0031] In some specific implementations, a first insert block is fixedly mounted on the top of the circular base 122, and a first slot matching the first insert block is provided at the bottom of the circular rod 123, enabling a quick and precise connection between the circular base 122 and the circular rod 123. This plug-in structure is securely installed, and when the filter membrane 121 needs to be replaced, the circular rod 123 can be easily pulled out from the circular base 122, simplifying the operation, improving the efficiency of filter membrane 121 replacement, and reducing downtime due to equipment maintenance.

[0032] In some specific implementations, the stirring assembly includes a second rotating shaft 131 and stirring rods 132. The second rotating shaft 131 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the crystallization tank 130, and multiple stirring rods 132 are fixedly mounted on the outside of the second rotating shaft 131. The plug-in assembly includes a second plug and a third plug. The second plug is fixedly mounted on the top of the second rotating shaft 131. The bottom of the round seat 122 passes through the bottom of the filter tank 120 and is provided with a second slot that mates with the second plug. The top of the round rod 123 is fixedly mounted with a third plug. The bottom of the first rotating shaft 111 passes through the bottom of the dissolving tank 110 and is provided with a third slot that matches the third plug. This achieves a reliable transmission connection between the first rotating shaft 111, the filter membrane 121, and the second rotating shaft 131. This connection method allows the motor 113 to drive the first rotating shaft 111 to rotate, which in turn efficiently drives the filter membrane 121 and the stirring assembly inside the crystallization tank 130 to operate synchronously, ensuring the synergy of power in the dissolving, filtering, and crystallizing processes, and improving the efficiency and stability of the entire purification process. At the same time, this plug-in structure is easy to operate during equipment assembly and maintenance, reducing the difficulty of equipment assembly and maintenance costs.

[0033] In some specific implementation schemes, L-shaped frames 133 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer side of the crystallization tank 130. The L-shaped frames 133 are fixedly connected to the first positioning ring 114 by bolts. The outer side of the first positioning ring 114 is provided with threaded grooves that match the bolts, and the L-shaped frames 133 are provided with threaded holes that match the bolts. During equipment operation, this effectively resists vibration and impact forces generated by stirring, material flow, etc., ensuring stable equipment operation. Moreover, the bolt connection method facilitates disassembly and adjustment. When partial adjustments or maintenance of the equipment are required, the bolts can be unscrewed for operation, improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0034] Working principle: The raw materials are first dissolved in the dissolving tank 110, then filtered in the filtering tank 120, then crystallized in the crystallizing tank 130, and finally separated from the mother liquor by the centrifuge 140. The specific process is as follows:

[0035] Dissolution process: Sodium phosphate raw material is added through the feed inlet at the top of dissolving tank 110, along with solvent. Motor 113 is started, driving the first rotating shaft 111 and stirring rod 112 to rotate, stirring the raw material and solvent. The second annular heating tube on the outside of dissolving tank 110 begins heating, increasing the dissolution rate and solubility. Heating and stirring parameters can be adjusted as needed to ensure the sodium phosphate is fully dissolved to form a solution. After dissolution is complete, the solenoid valve on the first discharge pipe is opened, and the solution enters the filter tank 120 through the bottom of dissolving tank 110.

[0036] Filtration process: The solution enters the filter tank 120, where a multi-layer filter membrane 121 filters the solution, removing insoluble impurities. A water inlet pipe on the outside of the filter tank 120 can be connected to cleaning water for periodic cleaning of the filter membrane 121. The inner circular seat 122 of the filter tank 120 rotates, causing the filter membrane 121, fixed on the circular rod 123, to rotate, improving filtration efficiency. The filtered solution enters the crystallization tank 130 through the arc-shaped hole at the bottom of the filter tank 120.

[0037] Crystallization process: The filtered solution enters the crystallization tank 130. The first annular heating tube on the outside of the crystallization tank 130 heats or cools the solution as needed. Simultaneously, the second rotating shaft 131 of the stirring assembly drives the stirring rod 132 to rotate, ensuring uniform mixing of the solution. Under temperature control and stirring, sodium phosphate crystallizes out of the solution.

[0038] Separation process: After crystallization, the mixture containing crystals and mother liquor enters centrifuge 140 from the bottom of crystallization tank 130. Centrifuge 140 uses high-speed rotation to generate centrifugal force, separating the sodium phosphate crystals from the mother liquor. The separated crystals can be further processed to obtain high-purity sodium phosphate product, and the mother liquor can be recovered or treated as needed.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
