AI Technical Summary
The existing inclined plate assembly lacks effective flow guidance and separation, which causes the wide water flow to generate lateral vortices and reduces sedimentation efficiency.
The design incorporates multiple parallel inclined plates with grooves on them. Vertical plates are perpendicularly engaged with the inclined plates to form independent sedimentation channels. The spacing between the vertical plates is maintained constant through limiting plugs and insert plate structures, eliminating transverse vortices and promoting laminar flow formation.
Independent sedimentation channels are formed by separating the vertical plates, which forces the water to flow longitudinally, eliminates lateral eddies, improves sedimentation efficiency, simplifies maintenance, and reduces the intensity of manual operation.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sedimentation equipment technology, specifically to a sedimentation tank inclined plate assembly. Background Technology
[0002] Sedimentation tanks, as key facilities in water treatment processes, primarily function to achieve solid-liquid separation through gravity settling. Inclined plate components, as an important part of sedimentation tanks, significantly improve sedimentation efficiency by increasing the effective settling area and optimizing the water flow path. However, existing inclined plate components still face several technical bottlenecks in practical applications. Traditional inclined plate structures lack effective flow guidance and separation, and wide-area water flow easily generates lateral eddies, causing settled particles to be re-entrained, severely reducing sedimentation efficiency. Therefore, we propose an inclined plate component for sedimentation tanks. Utility Model Content

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0026] See attached document Figure 1-3An inclined plate assembly for a sedimentation tank is provided. The inclined plate assembly includes multiple parallel inclined plates 1, which are placed on the inclined portion of the sedimentation tank. The inclined plate assembly is parallel to the outer wall of the inclined portion. Multiple rows of plate grooves 11 are equidistantly opened on one side of the inclined plate 1. A pair of plate grooves 11 can be engaged with a vertical plate 2. The surface of the vertical plate 2 is provided with flow guiding patterns, the direction of which is consistent with the longitudinal flow direction of the water. An extension plate 21 extending to the same side is also provided on one side of the vertical plate 2, with a gap left with the side wall of the vertical plate 2. The extension plate 21 is inserted into the plate groove 11 and slides in the direction of extension 21. The extension plate 21 can then be engaged with the inclined plate 1. The vertical plate 2 and the inclined plate 1 are arranged perpendicularly. Multiple independent small sedimentation channels are formed between the parallel vertical plates 2, which forces the water flow to flow longitudinally along the inclined plate 1 and eliminates transverse eddies. Since the vertical plate 2 divides the wide water flow into multiple narrow channels, it promotes the formation of laminar flow and reduces the interference of turbulent kinetic energy on particle sedimentation.
[0027] Because the extension plate 21 on the vertical plate 2 slides and inserts into the plate groove 11, there will be gaps at the edge of the plate groove 11, which will cause the vertical plate 2 to come out of the plate groove 11. A limit plug 3 is inserted into the gap. The cooperation between the inclined plate 1 and the limit plug 3 maintains the constant spacing between the vertical plates 2 through the fixing action of the insert plate 32 when the flow rate changes suddenly, preventing structural deformation or sedimentation channel failure, ensuring long-term stable operation of the system. When one of the vertical plates 2 is damaged, it is easy to replace. The limit plug 3 is made of corrosion-resistant rubber material.
[0028] See attached document Figure 4-5 A limiting groove 31 is provided on the side through hole of the limiting plug 3, and an insert plate 32 is inserted into the limiting groove 31. The plug-in design of the limiting plug 3 and the insert plate 32 supports the partial replacement of the independent plate 2 without the need for overall disassembly of the components, which significantly shortens the maintenance cycle and reduces the intensity of manual operation. It is suitable for rapid fault repair in continuous production scenarios. The insert plate 32 is inserted into the limiting groove 31 and fixed to the side wall of the upright plate 2 to prevent the limiting plug 3 from falling out of the plate groove 11. The insert plate 32 has a T-shaped structure, and when it is inserted into the limiting plug 3 and the upright plate 2, the insert plate 32 abuts against the inclined plate 1.
