Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of metallurgical equipment, and particularly relates to a zinc powder stirring device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Zinc powder is mainly used for metal replacement, solution purification and reduction reaction in metallurgy, and is an important material in hydrometallurgy and metal processing. In hydrometallurgy, zinc powder needs to react with a solution. To facilitate use, pre-mixing with water helps the zinc powder to be better dispersed in the solution, thereby improving the reaction efficiency.

[0003] Currently, the mixing is usually performed in a stirring manner, and a glass observation window is usually arranged on the stirring tank to facilitate observation of the liquid level of the mixed solution in the stirring device. Since the mixed solution is turbid, when the mixed solution adheres to the glass observation window and dries, a hardening is formed. With the increase of the use time, the hardening becomes thicker and thicker, which easily blocks the sight, and thus the observation window needs to be cleaned regularly to keep the observation window clean.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-5The utility model relates to a zinc powder stirring device which comprises:

[0032] The tank body 1 is in a cylindrical structure, and a top cover 11 is arranged at the top of the tank body 1. The top cover 11 can be removed during maintenance, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the internal components of the tank body 1.

[0033] The stirring mechanism 3 is arranged on the top cover 11 for convenient installation of the stirring mechanism 3. The stirring mechanism 3 can be used to stir and mix the materials in the tank body 1. The stirring mechanism 3 comprises a rotating shaft 31, stirring blades 32, a positioning sleeve 34 and a motor 35. The positioning sleeve 34 is fixedly installed on the support 2 and coaxial with the tank body 1. The rotating shaft 31 is rotatably installed at the positioning sleeve 34, and the end of the rotating shaft 31 extends into the tank body 1 through the top cover 11. The stirring blades 32 are arranged on the rotating shaft 31. When the rotating shaft 31 rotates, the zinc powder and water can be stirred and mixed by the stirring blades. The motor 35 can be used to drive the rotating shaft 31. In this embodiment, a belt drive is adopted. Furthermore, since the rotating shaft 31 is relatively long, the end of the rotating shaft 31 away from the positioning sleeve 34 is prone to vibration during rotation, which can cause the rotating shaft 31 to be abraded and affect the service life. Therefore, a positioning ring 33 is arranged at the central position of the bottom of the tank body 1, and the end of the rotating shaft 31 is rotatably connected to the positioning ring 33. Thus, the ends of the rotating shaft 31 are both supported, and the vibration problem of the rotating shaft 31 during rotation is alleviated.

[0034] Furthermore, a protective cover 36 is arranged at the transmission position to avoid accidental contact by workers. The bottom of the protective cover 36 is provided with a plug rod 37, and the support 2 is provided with a limiting cylinder 38 corresponding to the plug rod 37. During use, the plug rod 37 is directly inserted into the limiting cylinder 38, so that the protective cover 36 can be covered at the transmission position. During maintenance, the protective cover 36 can be directly removed, which is convenient and fast.

[0035] The liquid level measuring mechanism 4 comprises a mounting frame 41, a roller 42, a rope 43, a counterweight 45, a floating ball 47. The mounting frame 41 is fixedly arranged at the edge of the top of the tank 1, the roller 42 is rotatably arranged on the mounting frame 41, the rope 43 is wound around the roller 42, one end of the rope 43 is connected to the floating ball 47 in the tank 1, and the other end of the rope 43 is connected to the counterweight 45 outside the tank 1. When the liquid level in the tank 1 rises, the floating ball 47 rises, and the counterweight 45 descends under the action of gravity, so that the liquid level height can be known in real time through the counterweight 45. In addition, the weight of the floating ball 47 is greater than that of the counterweight 45, and the counterweight 45 is used to keep the rope taut. When the liquid level in the tank 1 falls, the floating ball 47 falls, and the counterweight 45 rises under the pulling force of the floating ball 47. Further, in order to more accurately determine the liquid level height, a measuring groove 44 is vertically arranged outside the tank 1, and the counterweight 45 is slidably connected in the measuring groove 44. The measuring groove 44 can reduce the interference of the external environment on the counterweight 45, and the measuring groove 44 is marked with a scale. The counterweight 45 is provided with a pointer 46 corresponding to the scale. The position of the pointer 46 can more accurately determine the liquid level height in the tank 1. Further, a limiting frame 48 corresponding to the floating ball 47 is arranged on the inner wall of the tank 1, and the bottom of the limiting frame 48 is communicated with the tank 1, thereby forming a communicating vessel. The limiting frame 48 can prevent the floating ball 47 from floating around, thereby improving the accuracy of measurement.

[0036] A feeding hopper 12 for adding zinc powder and a water inlet pipe 13 for adding water are further arranged on the top of the tank 1, and a valve 14 for controlling the opening and closing of the water inlet pipe 13 is arranged on the water inlet pipe 13.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that in this document, relationships such as first and second, and the like, are merely used to distinguish one entity or action from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between or among the entities or actions. In addition, the terms including, including, or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such a process, method, article or device.

[0038] Having described various embodiments of the application, it is to be understood that the above description is meant not to limit and not to encompass all of the possible embodiments. Many modifications and variations of this application can be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. It is intended that the scope of the application be defined by the scope of the patent and by the claims as allowed by the patent office, which can include adaptations based on the description, equivalents, and / or substitutions of elements individually or collectively to the entire disclosure.
