Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of reaction vessel technology, specifically to a reaction vessel for a polycarboxylate superplasticizer. Background Technology

[0002] Polycarboxylate superplasticizer is a high-performance water-reducing agent and a cement dispersant used in cement concrete. It is widely used in projects such as highways, bridges, dams, tunnels, and high-rise buildings. When used, it can reduce the amount of water used in concrete construction, lower the water-cement ratio, increase concrete strength, shorten the concrete curing period, ensure the progress of project construction, and give concrete long-term durability and corrosion resistance. Moreover, this product is green and environmentally friendly, non-flammable, non-explosive, and can be safely transported by train and truck.

[0003] The production process of polycarboxylate superplasticizer requires a reaction vessel. For example, Chinese utility model patent publication number "CN220405623U" discloses a reaction vessel for polycarboxylate superplasticizer, comprising: a vessel body; a feed pipe at the upper inlet of the vessel body, with a top cover hinged to the upper end of the feed pipe; a discharge pipe at the lower outlet of the vessel body, with a control valve connected in series inside the discharge pipe; a stirring shaft rotatably connected to the inside of the vessel body via bearings; stirring blades on the lower side of the outer arc surface of the stirring shaft, each stirring blade having a slotted hole inside; and an electric heating wire installed in a mounting groove inside the vessel body.

[0030] The stirring assembly 2 includes a central shaft 8, a stirrer 9, a first rotating sleeve 10, a second rotating sleeve 11, a stirring frame 12, a scraper 13, an auxiliary stirring unit 14, a first drive unit 15, and a second drive unit 16. A mounting bracket 4 is provided on the top of the vessel body 1. The first rotating sleeve 10 is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 4 via bearings. The second rotating sleeve 11 is rotatably mounted on the top of the vessel body 1 via bearings and extends downwards into the vessel body 1. The second drive unit 16 is mounted on the mounting bracket 4. The central shaft 8 is rotatably mounted on the movable part of the second drive unit 16. The second drive unit 16 drives the central shaft 8 to move up and down. The central shaft 8 engages and slides through the first rotating sleeve 15. The first rotating sleeve 10 and the second rotating sleeve 11 extend into the vessel body 1. The stirrer 9 is located at the lower end of the central shaft 8. The first drive unit 15 is located on the mounting frame 4. The first drive unit 15 drives the first rotating sleeve 10 to rotate. The stirring frame 12 is sleeved on the second rotating sleeve 11. The scraper 13 is located on the stirring frame 12 and contacts the inner wall of the vessel body 1. The auxiliary stirring unit 14 is located on the stirring frame 12 for stirring the material near the side wall of the vessel body 1. The auxiliary stirring unit 14 is provided in several groups along the circumferential direction of the toothed ring 22. The stirrer 9 includes a connecting rod 17 and a screw ribbon 18. The connecting rod 17 is located on the central shaft 8, and the screw ribbon 18 is located on the connecting rod 17.

[0031] The auxiliary stirring unit 14 includes a stirring shaft 19 and stirring blades 20. The stirring shaft 19 is rotatably mounted on the stirring frame 12 via bearings. The stirring blades 20 are mounted on the stirring shaft 19. Several groups of stirring blades 20 are evenly arranged along the circumferential and length directions of the stirring shaft 19. A first gear 21 is sleeved on the stirring shaft 19. A fixing frame is provided on the top wall inside the vessel body 1. A gear ring 22 is installed on the fixing frame. The first gear 21 and the gear ring 22 mesh.

[0032] The first drive unit 15 includes a motor 23, a first transmission wheel 24, a second transmission wheel 25, and a transmission belt 26. The motor 23 is mounted on the mounting bracket 4. The first transmission wheel 24 is sleeved on the output shaft of the motor 23. The second transmission wheel 25 is sleeved on the first rotating sleeve 10. The transmission belt 26 is sleeved on the first transmission wheel 24 and the second transmission wheel 25.

[0033] The second drive unit 16 includes a hydraulic cylinder 27 and a lifting plate 28. The hydraulic cylinder 27 is mounted on the mounting frame 4, and the lifting plate 28 is mounted on the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 27. The central shaft 8 is rotatably mounted on the lifting plate 28 via a bearing.

[0034] In practical use, the materials for producing polycarboxylate superplasticizer are added to the reactor body 1 through the feeding pipe 5, then the sealing cover 29 is closed, and the electric heating wire 6, motor 23, and hydraulic cylinder 27 are activated. The electric heating wire 6 heats the materials inside the reactor body 1. The hydraulic cylinder 27 drives the lifting plate 28 to move up and down, which in turn drives the central shaft 8 and the agitator 9 to move up and down. The motor 23 drives the first transmission wheel 24 to rotate, which in turn drives the second transmission wheel 25 to rotate via the transmission belt 26. The second transmission wheel 25 drives the first rotating sleeve 10 to rotate, which in turn drives the central shaft 8 and the agitator 9 to rotate. The up and down movement of the rotating agitator 9 allows for better mixing and stirring of the materials in the center of the reactor body 1. The central shaft 8 also drives the second rotating sleeve 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring frame 12 to rotate. The stirring frame 12 then drives the scraper 13 and the stirring shaft 19 to rotate. The scraper 13 scrapes and cleans the material adhering to the side wall of the vessel body 1, thus reducing material residue inside the vessel body 1. Simultaneously, the rotation of the stirring shaft 19 drives the first gear 21 to rotate. Since the first gear 21 meshes with the gear ring 22, it also rotates, thus driving the stirring shaft 19 to rotate. This simultaneous revolution and rotation of the stirring shaft 19 drives the stirring blades 20 to also revolutionize and rotate, resulting in better mixing of materials inside and outside the vessel body 1, thereby improving the mixing effect and efficiency. After mixing is complete, the valve 30 is opened, and the contents of the vessel body 1 are discharged through the discharge pipe 7.

[0035] In summary, this solution uses the central shaft 8 to drive the agitator 9 to rotate and move up and down, which can more evenly stir the material in the center of the vessel 1. The auxiliary stirring unit 14 can stir the material on the inner and outer periphery of the vessel 1, thus making the stirring effect better and the stirring efficiency higher. This solution also makes it easier to clean the material adhering to the side wall of the vessel 1. During the stirring process, the scraper 13 will rotate synchronously to scrape and clean the material adhering to the side wall of the vessel 1, thereby reducing the material residue in the vessel 1.
