It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0026] An aromatic solvent purification and crystallization device according to this embodiment includes a tank 1, a stirring device, a heating device, a cooling device, and a filtering device. A feed pipe is provided at the top of the tank 1, and a flow control valve is provided on the feed pipe. A discharge pipe 7 is provided at the bottom of the tank 1. An observation window 8 is provided on the side surface of the tank 1, and a solenoid valve is provided inside the discharge pipe 7.

[0027] The stirring device includes a stirring motor 2 and a stirring fan 4 fixed at the top center of the tank 1. The output end of the stirring motor 2 is fixedly connected to a stirring shaft 3. The side surface of the stirring shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the stirring fan 4. The side surface of the stirring shaft 3 is rotatably connected to the tank 1. By driving the stirring fan 4 to rotate through the stirring motor 2, the aromatic solvent can be fully mixed in the tank 1, accelerating the heat and mass transfer process, thereby improving the crystallization efficiency and shortening the production cycle.

[0028] The heating device includes a heating pipe 6 located at the bottom of the tank 1. The cooling device includes an annular cooling pipe 18 wound around the side surface of the tank 1 and a cooling water tank 16. The cooling device also includes a water pump 17 fixed on the cooling water tank 16. The output end of the water pump 17 is connected to the annular cooling pipe 18. The annular cooling pipe 18 is spirally wound around the side surface of the tank 1. The lower surface of the distribution box 9 is provided with support legs 20.

[0029] A flow divider 9 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of tank 1, and a conical tube 19 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of flow divider 9. A filter device is located inside flow divider 9, and a controller 15 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of flow divider 9. A temperature sensor 5 is installed on the inner side wall of tank 1. The observation window 8 is made of transparent high-temperature resistant material, which allows operators to observe the crystallization in tank 1 at any time, adjust process parameters in a timely manner, and ensure product quality. The cooling water tank 16 has a built-in refrigeration system, which can accurately control the temperature of the coolant according to process requirements.

[0030] The heating tube 6 and the annular cooling tube 18 work together to precisely control the temperature inside the tank 1, meeting the temperature requirements at different stages of the aromatic solvent crystallization process, which is beneficial to improving the crystallization quality and also helps to remove impurities.

[0031] The filtration device includes a filter screen 11, a drawer 10 is movably connected to the inner side wall of the diversion box 9, the inner side wall of the drawer 10 is fixedly connected to the filter screen 11, a first motor 12 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the diversion box 9, a rotating shaft 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 12, an eccentric roller 14 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the rotating shaft 13, the side surface of the eccentric roller 14 contacts the filter screen 11, and the side surface of the rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the diversion box 9.

[0032] After crystallization is completed, the solenoid valve in the discharge pipe 7 is opened, and the material and mother liquor flow into the diversion box 9. The crystals remain on the filter screen 11, and the mother liquor flows through the filter screen 11 into the conical tube 19 and is discharged. During this process, the first motor 12 starts the eccentric roller 14 to knock on the filter screen 11 while rotating. The separated crystals are left in the drawer 10. The crystals can be taken out by taking out the drawer 10.

[0033] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the flow control valve at the feed pipe precisely controls the feed rate of the aromatic solvent according to the production requirements, and the solvent is delivered into the tank 1. After entering the tank 1, the heating tube 6 of the heating device starts to work. The controller 15 adjusts the temperature rise of the heating tube 6 according to the set program. The temperature sensor 5 monitors the temperature in the tank 1 in real time and transmits the result to the controller 15. During this process, the stirring motor 2 drives the stirring fan 4 to rotate, so that the solvent is fully mixed in the tank 1, and the heat transfer and mass transfer process is accelerated.

[0034] Once the solvent reaches the appropriate heating temperature, the cooling device is activated, and the water pump 17 delivers cooling water to the annular cooling pipe 18. Through heat exchange, the temperature inside the tank 1 is reduced. During the temperature drop, the aromatic solvent gradually reaches a supersaturated state and begins to crystallize. The stirring device continues to work to ensure that the temperature of each part of the solvent is uniform, promotes uniform crystal growth, improves crystal quality, and also helps to separate impurities under suitable temperature conditions.

[0035] After crystallization is complete, the solenoid valve in the discharge pipe 7 is opened, and the material and mother liquor flow into the diversion box 9. The crystals remain on the filter screen 11, and the mother liquor passes through the filter screen 11. During this process, the first motor 12 starts the eccentric roller 14 to knock on the filter screen 11 while rotating. The separated crystals are left in the drawer 10. The crystals can be taken out by taking out the drawer 10.

[0036] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
