[0045] To make the contents of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0046] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a sludge dewatering device includes:

[0047] The base 1 has a water collection trough with a central inward recess on its upper surface, and a drainage channel connected to the water collection trough on its side.

[0048] Sludge conditioning tank 2 is installed on base 1. The top of sludge conditioning tank 2 is provided with material inlet 21 and the side wall is provided with discharge outlet 22.

[0049] The main frame 3 is mounted on the base 1. One side of the main frame 3 is connected to the discharge port 22 of the sludge conditioning tank 2 through a pipe. The bottom side of the main frame 3 is provided with a drainage hole 32.

[0050] Multiple guide rollers 4 are rotatably mounted inside the main frame 3;

[0051] The drive roller is rotatably mounted inside the main frame 3.

[0052] The transmission roller drive mechanism 7 is mounted on the main frame 3 and is connected to the transmission roller drive mechanism 7 in a transmission connection.

[0053] Filter cloth 5 is mounted around multiple guide rollers 4 and drive rollers to form a separation conveyor belt;

[0054] Diverting baffle assembly 6 is mounted on the main frame 3. The diverting baffle assembly 6 includes a support rod 61 spanning the left and right sides of the filter cloth 5, and multiple wedge-shaped baffles 62 installed at equal intervals along the length of the support rod 61. The multiple wedge-shaped baffles 62 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the support rod 61, and the wedge-shaped baffles 62 on opposite sides have a V-shaped structure.

[0055] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-3 As shown, sludge enters the main frame 3 through the sludge conditioning tank 2. Driven by the transmission rollers, the filter cloth 5 circulates along the guide rollers 4, gradually dewatering the sludge on the filter cloth 5. The wedge-shaped baffles 62 in the diversion baffle assembly 6 evenly distribute the sludge during transport, preventing localized accumulation and improving dewatering efficiency. Wastewater is collected through the drain holes 32 on the bottom side of the main frame 3 and the water collection tank on the base 1, and discharged through the drainage channel, thus separating sludge and water and improving sludge dewatering efficiency.

[0056] The sludge dewatering device also includes a water collection plate 14, which is installed on the main frame 3 and located inside the filter cloth 5. When the sludge moves on the filter cloth 5, the water in the sludge permeates downward through the pores of the filter cloth 5. The water collection plate 14 is located on the inner side of the filter cloth 5, so that the permeated water flows along the surface of the water collection plate 14 to the drain hole 32. The water collection plate 14 has two inclined surfaces, with the lowest point in the middle.

[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the sludge dewatering device also includes a stirring mechanism 8, which is installed on the sludge conditioning tank 2. The stirring mechanism 8 includes:

[0058] A stirring motor 81 is installed on the sludge conditioning tank 2, and the stirring motor 81 is equipped with an output shaft;

[0059] A stirring shaft, one end of which is connected to the output shaft of the stirring motor 81;

[0060] The stirring blades are mounted on the stirring shaft.

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the sludge dewatering device also includes a scraper 9, which is mounted on the main frame 3 and located at the outlet of the separation conveyor belt formed by the filter cloth 5.

[0062] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-2and Figure 5 As shown, the stirring mechanism 8 is used to mix and stir the sludge in the sludge conditioning tank 2. This process allows for the addition of flocculants or other conditioning agents to the sludge, ensuring thorough mixing and forming a suitable sludge slurry for dewatering.

[0063] The scraper 9 is located at the outlet of the separation conveyor belt formed by the filter cloth 5, and is used to remove the dewatered sludge adhering to the filter cloth 5.

[0064] During the operation of the sludge dewatering device, the sludge is stirred in the conditioning tank 2 and then discharged from the outlet 22, entering the filter cloth 5 inside the main frame 3. The filter cloth 5 runs under the drive of the transmission roller, carrying the sludge and moving upward at an incline. During the movement, the water in the sludge seeps through the pores of the filter cloth 5 under the action of gravity and is discharged through the drain hole 32, while the solid sludge is carried by the filter cloth 5 to the outlet, where it is scraped off and collected by the scraper 9.

[0065] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the sludge dewatering device also includes a first tension adjustment mechanism, which includes:

[0066] A pair of sliding guide frames 111 are installed on both sides of the main frame 3, and the sliding guide frames 111 are provided with roller guide grooves.

[0067] Adjusting roller, the adjusting roller is set inside the separating conveyor belt of filter cloth 5;

[0068] A pair of rollers 113 are rotatably mounted on both ends of the adjusting roller, and the rollers 113 are adapted to slide in the roller guide groove;

[0069] Two telescopic rods 114, one end of which is hinged to the outside of the roller 113, and the other end is hinged to the main frame 3.

[0070] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the sludge dewatering device also includes a second tension adjustment mechanism, which includes:

[0071] A pair of sliding supports 121 are installed on the two side walls of the main frame 3, and guide rails 122 are provided on the sliding supports 121;

[0072] The tension roller is set inside the separating conveyor belt of filter cloth 5;

[0073] A pair of sliding connecting blocks 123 are installed at both ends of the corresponding tensioning rollers, and the sliding connecting blocks 123 are slidably engaged with the guide rail 122.

[0074] Two telescopic drive assemblies 124, one end of which is hinged to the main frame 3, and the other end is hinged to the corresponding sliding connecting block 123.

[0075] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the first and second tension adjustment mechanisms are used to adjust the tension of the filter cloth 5 during use. By adjusting the length of the telescopic rod 114, the roller 113 slides within the roller guide groove, thereby changing the position of the adjusting roller and thus adjusting the tension of the filter cloth 5. When the sludge dewatering device is running, the filter cloth 5 may become loose due to prolonged use. At this time, the first tension adjustment mechanism can be used to tension the filter cloth 5 to ensure its normal operation. Simultaneously, the second tension adjustment mechanism, through the extension and retraction of the telescopic drive assembly 124, drives the sliding connecting block 123 to slide on the guide rail 122, thereby changing the position of the tensioning roller and further adjusting the tension of the filter cloth 5. The telescopic rod 114 can be a cylinder, and the telescopic drive assembly 124 can be a linear motor.

[0076] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the transmission roller drive mechanism 7 includes:

[0077] A drive source 71 is mounted on the main frame 3 and has an output end.

[0078] The gearbox 72 has an input end and an output end. The input end of the gearbox 72 is connected to the output end of the drive source 71, and the output end of the gearbox 72 is connected to the drive roller.

[0079] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the drive source 71, which can be a motor, is mounted on the main frame 3 as a power source. When the drive source 71 is started, its output end generates rotational power, which is transmitted to the input end of the reduction gearbox 72. The reduction gearbox 72 reduces the high speed to a speed suitable for sludge dewatering operations, while increasing the output torque, enabling the drive roller to carry and convey the filter cloth 5 containing sludge.

[0080] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the filter cloth 5 is inclined upward along the material conveying direction.

[0081] Specifically, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the sludge dewatering device also includes at least one side baffle 11, which is installed on the main frame 3 and located on both sides of the filter cloth 5.

[0082] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the sludge dewatering device also includes a ladder 12, which is installed on the outside of the main frame 3.

[0083] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-2 As shown, the filter cloth 5 is inclined upwards along the material conveying direction, so that the sludge is subjected to gravity during the conveying process, and the water in the sludge can more easily seep downwards through the filter cloth 5. When the sludge is discharged from the discharge port 22 of the sludge conditioning tank 2 into the main frame 3, it falls onto the filter cloth 5. Two side baffles 11 are installed on the main frame 3, located on both sides of the filter cloth 5. Their main function is to prevent the sludge from overflowing from both sides of the filter cloth 5 during the conveying process. When the sludge is conveyed onto the filter cloth 5, due to the movement of the filter cloth 5 and the fluidity of the sludge itself, the sludge may spread to both sides. The side baffles 11 form a physical barrier, restricting the sludge within the width of the filter cloth 5, ensuring that the sludge is evenly distributed on the filter cloth 5 and receives sufficient dewatering treatment.

[0084] The ladder 12 is placed outside the main frame 3. The upper end of the ladder 12 is equipped with a hook that can hook onto the side wall of the main frame 3. The ladder 12 is used by operators for daily inspection, maintenance and operation of the equipment.

[0085] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above descriptions are merely specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
