Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of graphite centrifuge equipment, specifically a sealed explosion-proof graphite centrifuge equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Graphite, as an important industrial raw material, plays a crucial role in many production fields. The manufacturing industry has extremely stringent quality requirements for graphite, demanding not only a carbon content of over 99.9%, but also limiting the content of trace elements. Typical natural graphite has a maximum carbon content of 96%, which is insufficient to meet the demand for high-purity graphite; therefore, purification of natural graphite is necessary.

[0003] In graphite purification processes, chemical purification is the primary method. This method removes impurities from natural graphite by adding chemical reagents. After graphite treatment, it's crucial to separate the graphite from the slurry mixture. Incomplete separation of chemical reagents can lead to residues becoming new impurities, thus affecting the purity of the graphite powder. Vertical centrifuges are commonly used for separating graphite from the slurry mixture. It's essential to prevent the volatilization and leakage of chemical reagents outside the centrifuge and to prevent air from entering the centrifuge to avoid dangerous accidents such as explosions.

[0004] However, the internal condition of a centrifuge is not observable in a closed environment, making it difficult to determine the thickness of the separated graphite powder accumulation on the centrifuge's inner wall. If the centrifuge is opened too early, the graphite powder accumulation will be too small, and frequent switching on and off will reduce production efficiency; if the centrifuge is opened too late, the graphite powder accumulation will be too large, occupying a lot of space and affecting heat dissipation, and may also generate static electricity due to friction, creating a safety hazard.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model proposes a sealed explosion-proof graphite centrifuge to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0027] Furthermore, a guide pipe 8 is connected to the bottom of the sealed tank 1; the middle part of the sealed tank 1 is convex trapezoidal. The lower end of the shaking bag 5 is conical, and an annular baffle 31 is connected to the outer side wall of the shaking bag 5 corresponding to the sealed tank 1.

[0028] Furthermore, the sealing cover 2 is connected to the shaking bag 5 via a material distributor, a feed pipe 10, an vent pipe 11, a nitrogen pipe 12, a telescopic rotating frame 13, a material layer controller 14, and an explosion-proof light 15; the vent pipe 11 and the nitrogen pipe 12 are both connected to the sealing cover 2; the material distributor includes a drive motor 27, a conical dispersing disc 25, and a rotating material distributing arm 26, which are located inside the sealed tank 1, with the rotating material distributing arm 26 located inside the conical dispersing disc 25, which is fixedly connected to the sealing cover 2; the drive motor 27 is fixedly connected to the sealing cover 2, and the drive motor 27 is coaxially connected to the conical dispersing disc 25; the feed pipe 10 is connected to the conical dispersing disc 25; the central axis inclination angle of the conical dispersing disc 25 and the rotating material distributing arm 26 is 5°-35°.

[0029] Furthermore, a positioning plate 28 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the material layer controller 14, and a torque sensor is connected between the positioning plate 28 and the material layer controller 14; a scraper 30 is installed inside the shaking bag 5, and the scraper 30 is connected to the sealing cover 2 via a telescopic rotating frame 13.

The drive motor 27 drives the conical dispersion disc 25 to rotate, and the rotating distribution arm 26 sprays the graphite evenly into the shaking bag 5. Then, the drive device 32 is activated. The high-speed rotating shaking bag 5 uses centrifugal force to make the liquid permeate through the filter holes of the shaking bag 5 and be discharged through the guide pipe 8 at the bottom of the sealed tank 1. During the discharge, the convex trapezoidal design of the tank body accelerates the liquid flow.

Solids are trapped in the shaking bag 5, and the material layer controller 14 monitors the material layer thickness in real time through the torque sensor. During unloading, the drive cylinder 22 pushes the blocking plate 21 with the conical rod 24 to open the drop pipe 6. The conical lower end of the shaking bag 5 assists the graphite to slide down by gravity. The scraper 30 scrapes off the residue through the telescopic rotating frame 13, and the corrugated pipe 23 compensates for the cylinder movement to maintain the seal.

[0032] When the shake bag 5 needs cleaning, the washing pipe 16 and nozzle 17 spray cleaning fluid onto the shake bag 5, and the waste liquid is discharged through the guide pipe 8; the manual intervention port 18 can be operated in case of emergency, and the observation window 20 can monitor the internal status in real time; the equipment ensures safety and explosion protection throughout the entire process through the design of the snap lock 4 sealed structure, nitrogen protection, explosion-proof light 15, etc.
