[0037] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar notations represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary only, and are used only for explaining the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.

[0038] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" and the like are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and therefore cannot be understood as indicating or implying that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application. In addition, the features limited as "first" and "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more.

[0039] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connecting", "connecting" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or it can be electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the communication between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0040] As Figure 1 shown, the wet screening device provided by an embodiment of the present application comprises a support 100, a feeding device 200 and a screening mechanism 300.

[0041] The bracket 100 is the main support structure used to support other components in the device.

[0042] The feeding device 200 is connected to the bracket 100. The top of the feeding device 200 has a feeding port 210 and the bottom of the feeding device 200 has a discharging port 220.

[0043] Specifically, the feeding device 200 is a hollow structure with openings at both the top and bottom. The upper opening of the feeding device 200 is the inlet 210, and the lower opening is the outlet 220. Operators can inject the material to be screened into the feeding device 200 through the inlet 210. The material to be screened can be a slurry, which may be a material used in battery preparation or other materials.

[0044] It should be noted that the bottom of the feeder 200 has a funnel-shaped structure. In other words, the cross-sectional area of ​​the bottom of the feeder 200 gradually decreases from top to bottom. This can slow down the outflow speed of the material to be screened in the feeder 200 and prevent the material to be screened from flowing out too quickly.

[0045] Furthermore, a switch valve 240 is provided at the discharge port 220 of the feed device 200. The switch valve 240 can control the opening and closing of the discharge port 220. When the material injected into the feed device 200 does not need to flow out, the discharge port 220 can be closed by the switch valve 240.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, a first support member 250 is provided on the bracket 100, and a feeder 200 is detachably provided on the first support member 250, and the feeder 200 can be removed from the feeder 200.

[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, the screening mechanism 300 is connected to the support 100. The screening mechanism 300 includes a screen 310 disposed below the discharge port 220 of the feed device 200, and a dispersing component 320 for dispersing the material to be screened on the screen 310.

[0048] Specifically, the screen 310 is connected to the bracket 100 via the second support member 311. The screen 310 can catch the material exiting from the discharge port 220 of the feeder 200. The mesh size of the screen 310 can be selected according to specific circumstances. The dispersing component 320 can disperse the material to be screened on the screen 310, thereby avoiding local accumulation of the material on the screen 310 and reducing the risk of clogging the screen 310 and reducing its screening efficiency. In addition, by dispersing the material on the screen 310, the number of screen holes participating in the screening process can be increased, thereby accelerating the screening efficiency.

[0049] It should be noted that the screen 310 is detachably connected to the second support 311, which facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the screen 310.

[0050] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 5 Specifically, the second support member 311 includes a support rod 3111 connected to the bracket 100, a limiting member 3112 connected to the support rod 3111, and a support portion 3113 replaceably connected to the limiting member 3112, the support portion 3113 being used to support the screen 310.

[0051] like Figure 5 As shown, the limiting member 3112 includes a frame 2521 connected to the support rod 3111 and a pawl 2522 rotatably connected within the frame 2521. The supporting part 3113 has a toothed structure, and the pawl 2522 can penetrate into the toothed structure to limit the supporting part 3113. The pawl 2522 is rotatably connected to the frame 2521 via a rotating shaft, and a torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft. The torsion spring abuts against the pawl 2522, thereby achieving the abutment of the supporting part 3113.

[0052] It should be noted that the support part 3113 is arc-shaped or ring-shaped, and there are various types of support parts 3113. Different types of support parts 3113 have different inner diameters, so as to support screens 310 with different outer diameters.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the switching valve 240 is configured with an adjustable opening; in other words, the switching valve 240 can adjust its opening angle to control the flow rate of material flowing out of the feeder 200. Thus, the operator can control the outflow rate of material from the feeder 200 according to specific circumstances, thereby reducing the risk of excessive material flow accumulating on the screen 310 and overflowing from it.

[0054] It should be noted that the adjustable-opening on / off valve 240 is a common type of valve, and its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0055] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the dispersing component 320 includes a dispersing drive and a dispersing component 322 that is driven to be connected to the dispersing drive. The dispersing component 322 is located above the screen 310, and the dispersing drive is used to drive the dispersing component 322 to translate or rotate on the upper surface of the screen 310.

[0056] It is understandable that by driving the dispersing component 322 to translate or rotate relative to the screen 310, the dispersing component 322 can dissolve the material to be screened on the screen 310.

[0057] The dispersing component 322 has a dispersing section on the side near the screen 310, which can be a brush, a dispersing plate, or a dispersing column. When the dispersing component 322 moves relative to the screen 310, the dispersing section can disperse the material to be screened on the screen 310.

[0058] Furthermore, the dispersing component 322 is connected to a rotating shaft 3221, which passes through the screen 310 and is perpendicular to the screen 310. The dispersing component 322 can rotate relative to the screen 310 by means of the rotating shaft 3221. The dispersing drive component is driven to the end of the dispersing component 322, and the dispersing drive component is used to drive the dispersing component 322 to rotate around the rotating shaft 3221.

[0059] Specifically, the disintegration drive includes a linear drive source, a drive block 3211 that is driven by the linear drive source to repeatedly reciprocate, and a transmission rod 3212 with one end rotatably connected to the drive block 3211, the other end of the transmission rod 3212 being rotatably connected to the end of the disintegration component 322.

[0060] It is understandable that the linear drive source is used to drive the drive block 3211 to perform linear reciprocating motion. Since the disintegrating component 322 is rotatably connected to the screen 310 through the rotating shaft 3221, when the drive block 3211 performs linear reciprocating motion, it will drive the disintegrating component 322 to rotate relative to the screen 310 through the transmission rod 3212.

[0061] It should be noted that the linear drive source can be an electric push rod, a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. The dispersing assembly 320 also includes a guide cylinder 3213 fixed on the bracket 100. The drive block 3211 is movably connected inside the guide cylinder 3213, and the drive block 3211 is also connected to a connecting rod 3214 that passes through the guide cylinder 3213. The linear drive source is connected to the connecting rod 3214.

[0062] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2Furthermore, the positions of the linear drive source, drive block 3211 and transmission rod 3212 are all higher than the screen 310; wherein, a plane parallel to the horizontal plane is defined as the reference plane, and the projections of the linear drive source on the reference plane and the projections of the drive block 3211 on the reference plane do not coincide with the projections of the discharge port 220 of the feeder 200 on the reference plane.

[0063] It is understandable that the linear drive source, drive block 3211, and transmission rod 3212 are all positioned higher than the screen 310. Thus, the material falling through the screen 310 will not adhere to the linear drive source, drive block 3211, and transmission rod 3212. In addition, the projections of the linear drive source on the reference plane and the drive block 3211 on the reference plane do not coincide with the projection of the discharge port 220 on the reference plane. Therefore, the material falling through the discharge port 220 of the feeder 200 will not fall directly onto the linear drive source, drive block 3211, and transmission rod 3212.

[0064] In other embodiments, the dispersing drive is a linear drive, such as an electric push rod, a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. The linear drive is driven to the dispersing component 322, and the linear drive can directly drive the dispersing component 322 to perform linear motion, thereby dispersing the material to be screened on the screen 310.

[0065] like Figure 1 As shown, it should be noted that the bracket 100 is equipped with a disintegration switch 330 for controlling the start and stop of the disintegration drive component.

[0066] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, a primary screen 500 is also provided above the screen 310. The primary screen 500 is located below the discharge port 220 of the feed device 200. The mesh size of the primary screen 500 is smaller than that of the screen 310. The primary screen 500 can perform preliminary screening of the material.

[0067] It should be noted that the primary screen 500 is connected to the bracket 100 through the third support member 510, wherein the structure of the third support member 510 can be the same as the structure of the second support member 311.

[0068] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the wet screening device further includes a stirring mechanism 400, which is connected to the support 100. The stirring mechanism 400 includes a stirring drive 410 and a stirring section 420 drivenly connected to the stirring drive 410, the stirring section 420 extending into the feeding device 200. The stirring drive 410 drives the stirring section 420 to rotate, thereby stirring the material in the feeding device 200 to make the material more uniformly mixed.

[0069] Specifically, the stirring drive 410 includes a rotary drive source 411 and a connecting shaft 412 connected to the rotary drive source 411. The stirring part 420 is connected to the connecting shaft 412 and extends into the feeding device 200 through the feed port 210 at the top of the feeding device 200.

[0070] Among them, the rotary drive source 411 is a motor, and the connecting shaft 412 is connected to the drive shaft of the motor.

[0071] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the wet screening device further includes a water storage container 110, a water pipe 600, and a water pump. One end of the water pipe 600 is connected to the water storage container 110, and the other end faces the feed inlet 210 of the feed device 200 or extends into the feed device 200. The water pump is used to pump water from the water storage container 110 into the water pipe 600 so that water can enter the feed device 200.

[0072] It should be noted that the desired viscosity of the material in the feeder 200 can be achieved by adding water. In addition, after the screening is completed, water can be injected into the feeder 200 to clean the feeder 200, screen 310 and other components.

[0073] The bracket 100 is also equipped with a water pump switch 610 that is electrically connected to the water pump. The water pump switch 610 can control the start and stop of the water pump.

[0074] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, a receiving container 700 is provided at the bottom of the screen 310, wherein the receiving container 700 has a structure with an opening at the top, and the receiving container 700 can catch the material screened by the screen 310.

[0075] The receiving container 700 can be mounted on the transfer tool 800, and the bottom of the transfer tool 800 is equipped with rollers 810, which can drive the receiving container 700 to move.

[0076] like Figure 7 As shown, the support 100 is further provided with a first snap-fit ​​member 120, and the transfer tool 800 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​member 820 that snaps into the first snap-fit ​​member 120. When the transfer tool 800 transports the receiving container 700 to the bottom of the screen 310, the second snap-fit ​​member 820 can be snapped into the first snap-fit ​​member 120 to achieve the positioning of the transfer tool 800.

[0077] The second snap-fit ​​component 820 includes a connecting part 821 connected to the transfer tool 800 and a snap-fit ​​part 822 connected to the connecting part 821. The snap-fit ​​part 822 is used to connect to the first snap-fit ​​component 120. By pulling the transfer tool 800 upward, the first snap-fit ​​component 120 and the second snap-fit ​​component 820 can be separated.

[0078] like Figure 8 As shown, in some other embodiments, the connecting part 821 is rotatably connected to the transfer tool 800, and by rotating the connecting part 821, the first snap-fit ​​member 120 and the second snap-fit ​​member 820 can be separated.

[0079] In this wet screening device, the operator can inject the material to be screened into the feeding device 200 through the feed inlet 210. The material in the feeding device 200 falls through its discharge outlet 220 and lands on the screen 310 for screening. The dispersing component 320 can disperse the material to be screened on the screen 310, thereby avoiding local accumulation of the material on the screen 310 and reducing the risk of clogging the screen 310 and reducing its screening efficiency. In addition, by dispersing the material on the screen 310, the number of screen holes participating in the screening process can be increased, thereby accelerating the screening efficiency.

[0080] In the description of this specification, the references to terms such as "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "illustrative embodiment," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0081] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
