Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of alumina production equipment, and more specifically, to a reagent dispensing device for a gallium sludge reactor. Background Technology
[0002] In the alumina production process, gallium is mainly found in bauxite and forms gallium sludge in sodium aluminate solution after the leaching reaction. Since the gallium content in the sludge is low, to extract gallium, the sludge can be dissolved in a reactor while reagents are added to settle impurities, resulting in a gallium-containing solution and residue. The residue is then filtered. Currently, reagents can be added manually, which is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Using fixed pipelines for reagent addition can also lead to caking of the reagents in the pipelines due to moisture in the reactor, reducing reagent utilization. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a convenient and well-sealed reagent addition device. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a reagent dispensing device for a gallium sludge reactor, which is convenient to use and has good sealing performance.
[0004] A reagent dispensing device for a gallium sludge reactor according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:
[0005] The outer shell has a feed inlet at its upper end and a discharge outlet at its lower end.

A switching cavity is provided on the conveying channel of the outer shell.
[0006] A switcher is provided with a rotating head, which is rotatably disposed in the switching cavity. The rotating head is provided with a storage tank. When the switcher rotates, the storage tank can be connected to the inlet or the outlet in sequence.
[0007] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the switching cavity is a spherical cavity, and the rotating head is configured as a sphere corresponding to the spherical cavity.
[0008] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the switching cavity is a cylindrical cavity, and the rotating head is configured as a cylinder corresponding to the cylindrical cavity.
[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the switch is provided with a control lever; the control lever can control the rotation of the rotating head.
[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the switcher further includes an adjusting rod, which is threadedly connected to the control rod. One end of the adjusting rod passes through the rotating head and is provided with a baffle, which is slidably disposed in the storage trough. When the adjusting rod rotates, the baffle can move axially.
[0011] According to some embodiments of the present invention, one side of the adjusting rod is provided with a polygonal prism.
[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the outer shell is provided with a slot on the switching cavity, and the outer peripheral wall of the control lever is provided with a locking post; when the switcher is rotated to the limit position, the locking post can be embedded in the slot.
[0013] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a hopper is provided at the upper end of the outer shell, and the feed inlet is provided on the hopper.

[0016] A reagent dispensing device for a gallium sludge reactor according to an embodiment of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0017] According to the present invention, the gallium sludge reactor reagent dispensing device includes an outer shell and a switcher. The upper end of the outer shell has a feed inlet, and the lower end has a discharge outlet. A conveying channel is provided inside the outer shell, with its two ends connected to the feed inlet and discharge outlet respectively.

At this time, the rotating head of the switcher rotates within the switching chamber, connecting the storage trough on the rotating head to the feed inlet. The reagent flows into the storage trough along the conveying channel, completing the reagent storage process. As the switcher rotates, the rotating head continues to rotate, disconnecting the storage trough from the feed inlet and gradually connecting it to the discharge outlet.

[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 4As shown, this utility model discloses a reagent dispensing device for a gallium sludge reactor. The reagent dispensing device includes a housing 100 and a switch 200. Specifically, the upper end of the housing 100 is provided with a feed inlet 101, and the lower end of the housing 100 is provided with a discharge outlet 102. A conveying channel 103 is provided inside the housing 100, and the two ends of the conveying channel 103 are respectively connected to the feed inlet 101 and the discharge outlet 102. A switching cavity 104 is provided on the housing 100 via the conveying channel 103. The switch 200 is provided with a rotating head 210, which is rotatably disposed in the switching cavity 104. A storage tank 211 is provided on the rotating head 210. When the switch 200 rotates, the storage tank 211 can sequentially connect to the feed inlet 101 or the discharge outlet 102. Specifically, in this embodiment, the switcher 200 is equipped with a rotating head 210, which is rotatably disposed in the switching cavity 104. A storage tank 211 is provided on the rotating head 210. When the switcher 200 rotates, the storage tank 211 can sequentially connect to the inlet 101 or the outlet 102. The medicine enters through the inlet 101 located at the upper end of the outer casing 100. At this time, the rotating head 210 of the switcher 200 rotates in the switching cavity 104, connecting the storage tank 211 on the rotating head 210 to the inlet 101. The medicine flows into the storage tank 211 along the conveying channel 103, completing the medicine storage process. As the switcher 200 rotates, the rotating head 210 continues to rotate, the storage tank 211 disconnects from the inlet 101, and gradually connects to the outlet 102. At this time, the reagent stored in the storage tank 211 flows out from the outlet 102 through the conveying channel 103 and enters the reactor, realizing the function of adding reagent to the gallium sludge reactor. This device can store the reagent at the inlet 101, and when it is necessary to add the reagent, the switch 200 can be rotated to realize the rapid addition of the reagent. This greatly improves the efficiency of reagent addition, reduces labor costs, and is especially suitable for frequent reagent addition needs in large-scale production scenarios. Unlike the traditional fixed pipeline reagent addition, this device controls the conveying path of the reagent by rotating the switch 200. The inlet 101 of the storage tank 211 is always relatively isolated from the space inside the reactor, reducing the impact of water vapor in the reactor on the reagent, effectively avoiding the occurrence of reagent caking in the pipeline, improving the utilization rate of the reagent, ensuring the stability and continuity of the production process, and reducing the equipment maintenance costs and production interruption risks caused by reagent caking.
[0031] In some embodiments of this utility model, the switching cavity 104 is a spherical cavity, and the rotating head 210 is correspondingly spherical. Specifically, in this embodiment, the switching cavity 104 is a spherical cavity, and the corresponding rotating head 210 is designed to be spherical. This spherical rotating head 210 can adapt to the internal space of the switching cavity 104 and rotate flexibly within the switching cavity 104 to realize the communication and switching function between the storage tank 211 and the inlet 101 and outlet 102. It also has the advantage of good sealing performance.
[0032] In some embodiments of this utility model, the switching cavity 104 is a cylindrical cavity, and the rotating head 210 is also cylindrical. Specifically, in this embodiment, the switching cavity 104 can be designed as a cylindrical cavity, and the corresponding rotating head 210 is designed as a cylindrical shape. The axis of the rotating head 210 is perpendicular to the axis of the conveying channel 103. The cylindrical rotating head 210 can fit into the internal space of the switching cavity 104 and can rotate flexibly within the switching cavity 104, thereby realizing the connection and switching functions between the storage tank 211 and the inlet 101 and outlet 102. The design of this structure has the advantages of simple structure and easy manufacturing.
[0033] In some embodiments of this utility model, the switcher 200 is equipped with a control lever 220; the control lever 220 can control the rotation of the rotating head 210. Specifically, in this embodiment, the switcher 200 is equipped with the key component of the control lever 220. The main function of the control lever 220 is to precisely control the rotation of the rotating head 210. By operating the control lever 220, the operator can flexibly adjust the rotation angle and direction of the rotating head 210 in the switching cavity 104 according to actual production needs. In this way, the storage tank 211 on the rotating head 210 can reliably connect with the inlet 101 or the outlet 102 in sequence according to the set program and rhythm, thereby smoothly completing the storage and dispensing process of the medicine and ensuring the orderly progress of the entire medicine dispensing process.
[0034] In some embodiments of this utility model, the switch 200 further includes an adjusting rod 230, which is threadedly connected to the control rod 220. One end of the adjusting rod 230 passes through the rotating head 210 and is provided with a baffle 231, which is slidably disposed in the storage trough 211. When the adjusting rod 230 rotates, the baffle 231 can move axially. Specifically, in this embodiment, the switch 200 includes a rotating head 210, an adjusting rod 230, and a control rod 220, with the control rod 220 and the rotating head 210 integrally formed. The adjusting rod 230 and the control rod 220 are connected by a threaded connection, which allows for precise control of their relative movement. One end of the adjusting rod 230 passes through the rotating head 210 and is provided with a baffle 231 at its end, which can slide in the storage trough 211. In the normal state, that is, when the adjusting rod 230 is not operated, the baffle 231 is tightly abutted against the bottom of the storage trough 211. At this point, the storage tank 211 is in a standard initial capacity state. When it is necessary to adjust the size of the space in the storage tank 211 to hold the medicine, the operator rotates the adjusting rod 230. Since the adjusting rod 230 and the control rod 220 are threadedly connected, the rotation of the adjusting rod 230 is converted into axial linear motion. As the adjusting rod 230 rotates, the baffle 231 connected to it also moves along the axial direction of the storage tank 211. In this way, the size of the space in the storage tank 211 to hold the medicine can be flexibly changed. For example, under different production conditions, depending on the actual dosage of medicine to be added, the adjusting rod 230 can be rotated to move the baffle 231 upward, increasing the capacity of the storage tank 211 to store more medicine; or the baffle 231 can be moved downward, decreasing the capacity of the storage tank 211, precisely controlling the dosage of medicine stored and added each time. This design further enhances the flexibility and adaptability of the medicine dispensing device, and can better meet diverse production needs.
[0035] In some embodiments of this utility model, a polygonal prism 232 is provided on one side of the adjusting rod 230. Specifically, in this embodiment, in actual production scenarios, when it is necessary to adjust the space for the medicine contained in the storage tank 211, the operator can easily use a wrench or other common tools to hold the polygonal prism 232 in place. Utilizing the lever principle of the wrench, the rotation of the adjusting rod 230 can be controlled more effortlessly and precisely, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the position of the baffle 231, ultimately achieving the goal of flexibly changing the size of the medicine-containing space in the storage tank 211. This design fully considers the convenience and accuracy of actual operation, effectively improving the operability and practicality of the entire medicine dispensing device.
[0036] In some embodiments of this utility model, the outer shell 100 is provided with a slot 110 on the switching cavity 104, and the outer peripheral wall of the control lever 220 is provided with a locking post 221; when the switcher 200 rotates to its limit position, the locking post 221 can be inserted into the slot 110. Specifically, in this embodiment, after the locking post 221 is inserted into the slot 110, it can stably fix the current limit position of the rotating head 210, ensuring the stability and reliability of the switcher 200 during operation, so that the connection and switching between the storage tank 211 and the inlet 101 and outlet 102 are always in a precise and controllable state.
[0037] In some embodiments of this utility model, a hopper 120 is provided at the upper end of the outer shell 100, and a feed inlet 101 is provided on the hopper 120. Specifically, in this embodiment, the outer shell 100 serves as the main load-bearing structure, and the hopper 120 is provided at the upper end of the outer shell 100. The hopper 120 can serve as a storage space for the medicine. Utilizing the large opening area and storage space of the hopper 120, the medicine can be conveniently and quickly collected. Then, the medicine flows smoothly and orderly into the device through the feed inlet 101 located on the hopper 120, and then into the storage tank 211 on the rotating head 210. This arrangement ensures the efficiency and smoothness of the medicine dispensing process, laying a good foundation for the stable and reliable operation of the entire device.
[0038] In some embodiments of this invention, a flange 130 is provided on the hopper 120. Specifically, in this embodiment, the flange 130 allows connection to a pipeline for conveying the pharmaceutical agent. This avoids repeated addition of the pharmaceutical agent and reduces the frequency of manual labor.
[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, a discharge pipe 140 is provided at the lower end of the outer shell 100, and a discharge port 102 is provided on the discharge pipe 140; an annular protrusion 141 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the discharge pipe 140. Specifically, in this embodiment, by providing the annular protrusion 141, the gas-liquid impact in the reactor can be reduced.
[0040] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
