Description

[0002] With the rapid development of industrial wastewater treatment technology, axial-flow sedimentation tank is widely used in the field of sewage treatment due to its compact structure, high treatment efficiency and other characteristics. The traditional axial-flow sedimentation tank usually adopts the basic structure of top water inlet and bottom sludge discharge. After the water flow enters the tank body in the vertical direction, solid-liquid separation is realized by gravity. However, in actual operation, the high-speed downward water flow directly impacts the sludge layer deposited at the bottom of the tank, causing the secondary suspension of the settled sludge. In addition, some improved schemes set fixed guide plates below the water inlet. Although this can disperse part of the water flow energy, the rigid structure design limits the dynamic adaptation to the change of water flow impact angle. Local vortex is easily generated at the edge of the guide plate, which further intensifies the irregular churning of the sludge layer. Moreover, the traditional sludge discharge system relies on time control or liquid level detection, which is difficult to realize real-time sensing of sludge deposition thickness. When the sludge layer exceeds the critical thickness, the shear force at the sludge-water interface increases significantly. At this time, starting sludge discharge cannot avoid the upwelling of sludge. SUMMARY

[0023] In the preferred scheme, a fixed cylinder 6 is installed in the pipe opening of the wastewater inlet pipe 5, and a vertical rotating rod 7 is movably arranged in the fixed cylinder 6.

[0024] In the preferred scheme, at least two movable rings 8 are embedded on the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 6, and the inner wall of the movable ring 8 and the rotating rod 7 are connected and fixed by radial connecting rods 9.

[0025] In the preferred scheme, the upper end of the rotating rod 7 extends upward into the wastewater inlet pipe 5, and a blade 10 is arranged at the upper end of the rotating rod 7.

[0026] In the preferred scheme, the fixed cylinder 6 and the pipe opening of the wastewater inlet pipe 5 are fixedly connected by screw threads.

[0027] In the preferred scheme, the guide groove 12 comprises an inclined groove section 121 at the upper part and a flat groove section 122 at the lower part.

[0028] In the preferred scheme, the sedimentation tank 1 is provided with a sludge lifting cloth 13, a limiting rod 14 is arranged on one side of the sludge lifting cloth 13, the limiting rod 14 is located outside the strip hole arranged on the pool wall on one side of the sedimentation tank 1 and realizes the fixation of one side of the sludge lifting cloth 13, the sludge lifting cloth 13 extends downward into the sludge collecting tank bottom 2 and is pulled out through the strip hole arranged on the pool wall on the other side of the sedimentation tank 1, and then is connected with a tension sensor 15 through a pulling rope.

[0029] In the preferred scheme, the sludge lifting cloth 13 is attached to the side wall of the sedimentation tank 1 on both sides, and a gap is formed between the bottom of the sludge lifting cloth 13 and the sludge collecting tank bottom 2.

[0030] In the preferred scheme, the sludge collecting groove bottom 2 is further provided with a sludge discharge pipe 16, one end of which penetrates into the sedimentation tank 1, and a sludge discharge valve 17 is arranged on the sludge discharge pipe 16 outside the sedimentation tank 1, and the sludge discharge valve 17 and the tension sensor 15 are connected to the same control module.

[0031] The present application discloses a disturbance-proof sludge sedimentation tank, which is used for sewage treatment.

[0032] The sewage vertically falls from the wastewater inlet pipe 5, impacts the blade 10 to drive the rotating rod 7 to rotate, and drives the conical flow guide cover 11 to rotate at a speed of 5-10 r / min, and when the water flow passes through the spiral flow guide groove 12 of the flow guide cover 11, the water flow is decomposed into multiple spiral diffusion water flows, and the vertical impact force is effectively reduced.
