The outlet of the purge gas inlet pipe is located below the dispersing component and communicates with the chamber. The inlet of the negative pressure gas collecting pipe communicates with the chamber and is higher than the outlet of the silicon powder feed pipe.

[0007] In use, the dust-laden silicon powder falls from the outlet of the silicon powder feed pipe to the top of the dispersing component located in the chamber, where it is dispersed by the dispersing component, causing the dust to rise. The risen dust is drawn away by the negative pressure gas collection pipe; as the dispersed silicon powder falls, purge air enters the chamber through the outlet of the purge air inlet pipe, performing secondary dust removal on the dust adhering to the surface of the silicon powder, thereby achieving the purpose of efficiently and energy-saving removal of fine dust from the surface of the silicon powder.

[0008] Specifically, the dispersing component is bullet-shaped, with its head facing the outlet of the silicon powder feed pipe.

[0009] Specifically, the dispersing component is made of a magnetic material.

[0012] Specifically, both the separation section and the dust collection section are cylindrical, and their inner diameters are the same as those of the first cylindrical section.

[0013] Specifically, the silicon powder outlet is located at the end of the second cylindrical section away from the intermediate conical section.

[0014] Specifically, a flow-dispersing plate is also provided on the side wall of the separation section, and the flow-dispersing plate is spaced apart from the outer periphery of the dispersing component.

[0015] Specifically, the purge gas inlet pipe is connected to the purge gas purging device.

[0016] Specifically, the purging gas is nitrogen.

[0017] Beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. In this device, dust-laden silicon powder falls from the outlet of the silicon powder feed pipe to the top of the dispersing component located in the chamber, where it is dispersed by the dispersing component, causing the dust to rise. The risen dust is drawn away by the negative pressure collection pipe; during the falling of the dispersed silicon powder, purge air is introduced into the chamber through the outlet of the purge air inlet pipe to perform secondary dust removal on the dust attached to the surface of the silicon powder, and then the fine dust is drawn away by negative pressure, thereby achieving the purpose of efficiently and energy-savingly removing fine dust from the surface of silicon powder.

[0019] 2. When the dispersing component of this device is made of magnetic material, the device of this application can also demagnetize, thereby further improving the purity of the silicon powder product.

[0020] 3. This device mainly relies on the automatic falling of objects for dust removal, which meets the requirements of green production; it is suitable for the treatment of silicon powder of various types and particle sizes and has broad application prospects; the collected dust is easy to recycle and reuse, reducing resource waste and environmental burden.

[0025] This invention provides a device for removing dust from the surface of silicon powder, comprising a main body 1, a silicon powder feed pipe 2, a dispersing component 3, a purge air inlet pipe 4, and a negative pressure gas collecting pipe 5. The main body 1 has a hollow chamber 11 inside, with a silicon powder outlet 12 at the bottom. The outlet 21 of the silicon powder feed pipe 2 extends into the chamber 11 from the top. The dispersing component 3 is disposed in the chamber 11 and corresponds to the outlet 21 of the silicon powder feed pipe 2. The outlet 41 of the purge air inlet pipe 4 is located below the dispersing component 3 and communicates with the chamber 11. The inlet 51 of the negative pressure gas collecting pipe 5 communicates with the chamber 11 and is higher than the outlet 21 of the silicon powder feed pipe 2.

[0026] In use, the dust-laden silicon powder falls from the outlet 21 of the silicon powder feed pipe 2 to the top of the dispersing component 3 located in the chamber 11, where it is dispersed by the dispersing component 3, causing the dust to rise. The risen dust is then drawn away by the negative pressure collection pipe 5. As the dispersed silicon powder falls, purge air is introduced into the chamber 11 through the outlet 41 of the purge air inlet pipe 4 to perform secondary dust removal on the surface of the silicon powder.

[0027] It is understandable that by precisely controlling parameters such as the gas flow rate of the purging gas, the feeding speed of the dust-containing silicon powder, and the negative pressure of the negative pressure collection pipe, the device can achieve stable and efficient dust removal.

[0028] Specifically, the dispersing component 3 is bullet-shaped, with its head facing the outlet 21 of the silicon powder feed pipe 2.

[0029] Specifically, the dispersing component 3 is made of magnet material.

[0030] In this embodiment, by making the dispersing component 3 a magnetic material, it can not only remove dust but also demagnetize. Specifically, during the descent, magnetic materials will adhere to the dispersing component 3. It can be periodically removed to clean the magnetic materials on the dispersing component 3.

[0031] Specifically, chamber 11 includes, from top to bottom, a dust collection section 111, a separation section 112, and an air inlet section 113. The separation section 112 connects the dust collection section 111 and the air inlet section 113. The air inlet 51 of the negative pressure air collection pipe 5 is located on the side wall of the dust collection section 111. The air outlet 41 of the purge air inlet pipe 4 is located on the side wall of the air inlet section 113.

[0032] Specifically, the intake section 113 includes a first cylindrical section 1131, an intermediate conical section 1132, and a second cylindrical section 1133. The separation section 112, the first cylindrical section 1131, the intermediate conical section 1132, and the second cylindrical section 1133 are sequentially connected. The inner diameter of the first cylindrical section 1131 is larger than the inner diameter of the second cylindrical section 1133. The outlet 41 of the purge air intake pipe 4 is located on the side wall of the second cylindrical section 1133.

[0033] Specifically, both the separation section 112 and the dust collection section 111 are cylindrical, and their inner diameters are the same as those of the first cylindrical section 1131.

[0034] Specifically, the silicon powder outlet 12 is located at the end of the second cylindrical section 1133 away from the middle conical section 1132.

[0035] Specifically, a flow-dispersing plate 6 is also provided on the side wall of the separation section 112, and the flow-dispersing plate 6 is spaced apart from the outer periphery of the dispersing component 3.

[0036] The function of the baffle plate 6 is to reduce the falling speed of the material and increase the amount of nitrogen gas blown from bottom to top.

[0037] Specifically, the purge gas inlet pipe 4 is connected to the purge gas purging device.

[0038] Specifically, the purging gas is nitrogen.

[0039] Preferably, to prevent metallic foreign objects from affecting the quality of silicon powder products, the chamber 11, the purge gas inlet pipe 4, and the negative pressure gas collection pipe 5 are lined with non-metallic materials to avoid the introduction of impurities into the system.

[0040] Preferably, the outlet of the negative pressure gas collection pipe 5 can be connected to a dust recovery device to recover and reuse the collected dust, thereby reducing environmental pollution.

Many methods and approaches exist for implementing this technical solution; the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
