Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydrocyclone technology, specifically to a single-stage hydrocyclone that is easy to install. Background Technology
[0002] A single-stage hydrocyclone is a device that uses fluid pressure to generate rotational motion. When the slurry enters the hydrocyclone at a certain velocity, it is forced to rotate upon encountering the hydrocyclone wall. Due to the different centrifugal forces experienced, the coarse solid particles in the slurry experience a greater centrifugal force, enabling them to overcome hydraulic resistance and move towards the wall. Under the combined effect of their own gravity, they spiral downwards along the wall. Fine and small particles, along with most of the water, experience a smaller centrifugal force and do not approach the wall before rotating with the slurry. Driven by subsequent feed, the slurry continues its downward and rotating motion, causing the coarse particles to continue to concentrate towards the periphery, while the fine particles remain in the central region. The particle size increases from the center towards the wall, forming a stratified arrangement. As the slurry flows from the cylindrical section to the conical section of the hydrocyclone, the flow cross-section becomes smaller. Under the contraction and pressure of the outer slurry, the inner slurry, containing a large number of fine particles, is forced to change direction and move upward, forming an inner vortex. This vortex is discharged from the overflow pipe as the overflow, while the coarse particles continue to spiral downward along the wall, forming an outer vortex, and are eventually discharged from the bottom outlet as sediment. Currently, in existing technologies, the installation of a primary hydrocyclone typically involves welding a steel frame onto the primary hydrocyclone to support it and connect the feed and overflow pipes to external pipelines. However, this requires frequent height measurements of the primary hydrocyclone to ensure accuracy after installation, which is not only cumbersome but also limits the ability of a single primary hydrocyclone to accommodate only one set of feed and discharge pipes. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an easy-to-install primary hydrocyclone, solving the problem that in existing primary hydrocyclones, during installation, a steel frame is usually welded onto the primary hydrocyclone for support in order to connect the feed pipe and overflow pipe of the primary hydrocyclone to the external pipeline. However, this requires frequent measurement of the height of the primary hydrocyclone to ensure the accuracy of the height after installation, which is not only cumbersome, but also limits the ability of one primary hydrocyclone to accommodate only one set of feed and discharge pipes.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a first-stage hydrocyclone that is easy to install, comprising a cylindrical shell and a conical shell fixed to its bottom end, wherein a connecting mechanism is installed on the outer wall of the cylindrical shell, and a driving mechanism is installed on the connecting mechanism;
[0005] The connecting mechanism includes a first horizontal plate fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cylindrical shell, and a pair of sleeves fixedly connected to the bottom end of the first horizontal plate. A second horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sleeves, and the interior of the second horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the conical shell. A pair of screws are threadedly connected to the interior of the second horizontal plate, and the outer wall of the screws is clearance-fitted with the inner wall of the sleeves. Support plates are installed on the outer walls of both ends of the second horizontal plate, and the sliding grooves of the support plates are slidably connected to the outer walls of the second horizontal plate. A fourth horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the side wall of the support plate, and the fourth horizontal plate is rotatably connected to the screws.
[0006] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a pair of third horizontal plates fixed to the outer wall of the support plate, a vertical plate fixed between adjacent third horizontal plates, and a motor fixed inside the vertical plate. The output shaft of the motor is fixed to a first bevel gear, and the bottom outer wall of the screw is fixed to a second bevel gear, which meshes with the first bevel gear.
[0007] Preferably, a base plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support plate.
[0008] Preferably, a sediment discharge pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the conical shell.
[0009] Preferably, the top and side walls of the cylindrical shell are respectively connected to an overflow pipe and a feed pipe.
[0010] Beneficial effects
[0011] This utility model provides a single-stage hydrocyclone that is easy to install and has the following advantages:
[0012] This device can be moved to a designated location, and then the external power supply and control circuit of the motor can be connected to start the motor. The motors will then move synchronously, and the output shaft of the motor will drive the second bevel gear to rotate through the first bevel gear. The second bevel gear will then drive the screw to rotate. After the two screws rotate synchronously, they will move the second horizontal plate through the sliding groove of the support plate. The second horizontal plate will then drive the conical shell to move through the sleeve and the first horizontal plate. The cylindrical shell will then drive the feed pipe and overflow pipe to move to the same height as the external pipe. This will enable the pipe installation to be quick and easy, with fewer limitations. Afterwards, the cylindrical shell and conical shell, together with the sediment discharge pipe, overflow pipe and feed pipe, can form a single-stage hydrocyclone for solid-liquid separation.

[0021] A sleeve 7 is provided between the first horizontal plate 6 and the second horizontal plate 9 for support. At the same time, when the screw 8 drives the second horizontal plate 9 to descend, the screw 8 can be stored in the sleeve 7. A groove is machined on the side wall of the support plate 10 to limit the second horizontal plate 9.
[0022] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism is further configured such that the driving mechanism includes a pair of third horizontal plates 11 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support plate 10, a vertical plate 12 is fixedly connected between adjacent third horizontal plates 11, and a motor 13 is fixedly connected inside the vertical plate 12.
