Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of catalyst feeding devices, and in particular to a semi-open catalyst feeding tank. Background Technology
[0002] Catalysts are crucial for accelerating chemical reaction rates in industries such as chemical engineering, fine chemicals, food, and pharmaceuticals. During production, catalysts need to be added from the storage area to the reaction zone to ensure the smooth progress of the reaction. Adding catalysts from the storage area to the reaction zone requires a catalyst feeding tank. Several different catalyst feeding tank technologies exist, including a catalyst feeding tank for polyurethane prepolymer production with a pressure detection component, a catalyst feeding device that uses a rotating ball scoop to add catalyst, and a premixed catalyst feeding tank. However, these catalyst feeding tanks have complex structures, high manufacturing and maintenance costs, large footprint, and lead to catalyst waste. A semi-open catalyst feeding tank effectively controls maintenance costs and catalyst waste, while also having a simple structure and low manufacturing cost.
[0003] However, these catalyst feeding tanks have the following problems:
[0004] It has a complex structure and high manufacturing and maintenance costs.
[0005] With only a small catalyst inlet, the efficiency of catalyst loading is not high.

[0032] Cylinder 2; The upper end of cylinder 2 is provided with a circular opening;
[0033] Straight pipe 10; the lower end of the cylinder 2 is connected to the upper end of the straight pipe 10, and both the cylinder 2 and the straight pipe 10 are set vertically;
[0034] Three support legs 7; the upper ends of the three support legs 7 are installed on the side wall of the cylinder 2, and the lower ends of the support legs 7 are fixedly installed; the three support legs 7 are evenly distributed around the axis of the cylinder 2.
[0035] Slide valve assembly 5; slide valve assembly 5 is installed on straight pipe 10;
[0036] Cover plate 9; Cover plate 9 includes a fixed cover plate 91 and a rotating cover plate 92. Both the fixed cover plate 91 and the rotating cover plate 92 are formed into a semi-circular structure. The fixed cover plate 91 is fixedly installed in the first half position of the opening. One side of the rotating cover plate 92 is rotatably connected to one side of the fixed cover plate 91 through a hinge 93. When the rotating cover plate 92 is lowered, it is used to close the second half position of the opening.
[0037] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, a rubber strip seal 8 is provided at the upper end of the second half of the open section. When the rotating cover plate 92 is placed on the cylinder 2, it comes into sealing contact with the rubber strip 8.
[0038] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the semi-open catalyst feeding tank also includes three lifting lugs 1, which are installed on the upper side wall of the cylinder 2. The three lifting lugs 1 are evenly distributed around the axis of the cylinder 2.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the lower end of the cylinder 2 is formed into a frustum 3 structure, and the upper diameter of the frustum 3 is larger than the lower diameter.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the semi-open catalyst feeding tank also includes a needle valve 4 for introducing nitrogen into the straight pipe 10. The needle valve 4 is installed on the side wall of the straight pipe 10. Nitrogen can be introduced into the straight pipe 10 and the cylinder 2 through the needle valve 4 to prevent oxidation of the catalyst in the cylinder 2 or to prevent oxidation of the catalyst discharged to the bag.
[0041] like Figure 1 and 4 As shown, the slide gate valve assembly 5 includes a slide gate 51. A U-shaped groove is horizontally formed on the inner wall of the straight pipe 10, and the groove opening communicates with the outside. The head of the slide gate 51 is formed into a semi-circle, and the slide gate 51 is inserted into the U-shaped groove.

There is a gap between the upper end of the float plate 6 and the side wall of the straight tube 10. The mouth of the bag containing the catalyst is hung on multiple float plates 6, which makes it easier to connect the bag to the straight tube 10.
[0043] In operation, the rotating cover 92 is first opened, and the insert valve assembly 5 is in a closed state. Catalyst is then injected into the cylinder 2 through the second half of the opening for storage. Nitrogen gas is then injected into the cylinder 2 and the straight pipe 10 through the needle valve 4. When the catalyst needs to be retrieved, the inward hook at the top of the bag is hooked onto the six floats 6. The insert plate 51 is then removed, causing the catalyst to leak into the bag. The insert plate 51 is then inserted, and the bag is removed and properly packaged. When the device needs to be moved, the lifting rope is connected to the three lifting lugs 1, and then the lifting device is connected.
