Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste metal recycling technology, specifically to a purification mechanism for waste metal recycling. Background Technology

[0002] With the accelerating pace of industrialization, the recycling of scrap metal is playing an increasingly important role in resource recycling and environmental protection. Scrap metal not only contains a large amount of renewable metal resources, but it can also effectively reduce the pressure of mineral resource extraction, lower energy consumption and environmental pollution, and achieve a dual improvement in economic and ecological benefits. Therefore, how to efficiently and environmentally recycle and purify scrap metal has become an important issue in the field of metal resource reuse.

[0003] While existing scrap metal recycling and purification equipment can achieve a certain degree of metal recovery, it still has many shortcomings in practical applications. Firstly, the mixing systems of many traditional devices are poorly designed, resulting in ineffective mixing and poor liquid flow. This leads to the accumulation of scrap metal, affecting the full dissolution and purification efficiency. Secondly, the loading and unloading operations for scrap metal are not simple enough; the process is cumbersome and inefficient, increasing labor intensity and operational risks, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale continuous production.

[0004] Therefore, this solution proposes a purification mechanism for recycling scrap metal to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a purification mechanism for recycling waste metals.

[0006] To achieve the aforementioned objective, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: A purification mechanism for recycling waste metal includes a processing tank. A cylindrical filter frame is disposed at the center inside the processing tank. A filter disc that can slide up and down is slidably engaged inside the cylindrical filter frame. A tank cover is disposed at the top of the processing tank. A connecting column is installed between the bottom center of the tank cover and the center of the filter disc. The upper port of the cylindrical filter frame is flush with the upper port of the processing tank and is connected to the processing tank through side supports disposed at the front, back, left, and right. An annular stirring turbine is disposed at the bottom inside the processing tank. A rotary drive component for driving the stirring turbine is installed at the bottom outside the processing tank. A liquid outlet valve pipe is installed at the center of the bottom of the processing tank. Stepping cylinders for driving the tank cover to rise and fall are installed on the left and right tank walls outside the processing tank.

[0007] Preferably, the stirring turbine is annular in shape, avoiding the central outlet at the bottom of the treatment tank. Several stirring blades are evenly distributed on the inner wheel surface of the stirring turbine, and the outer wheel surface of the stirring turbine is tightly attached to the tank wall of the treatment tank. Several magnets are evenly embedded in the center of the worm gear inside the stirring turbine, and a magnetic block that is magnetically attracted to several magnets is provided inside the rotating drive component.

[0008] Preferably, the rotary drive includes a drive ring for positioning a plurality of magnetic blocks, and a transmission gear ring mounted on the inner ring of the drive ring. A drive gear meshes with the inner ring of the transmission gear ring. A mounting bracket is provided on the right side of the bottom of the outer tank of the processing tank. A drive motor is mounted on the mounting bracket, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to the center of the drive gear.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the treatment tank has four support legs evenly distributed.

[0010] Preferably, the length of the connecting column is the same as the internal depth of the cylindrical filter frame, and the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the stepping cylinder is the same as the length of the connecting column.

[0011] Preferably, the magnets and the magnetic blocks have different magnetic properties.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are reflected in:

[0013] Improve metal dissolution efficiency

[0014] The built-in annular stirring turbine, driven by a rotary drive, achieves efficient stirring, fully stimulating the fluidity of the treatment solution, breaking up the accumulation of scrap metal materials, and ensuring full contact between the metal and the purification solution. This not only accelerates the metal dissolution process but also improves the efficiency and effectiveness of purification, effectively shortening the overall processing time and increasing production efficiency.

[0015] Easy to operate and efficient process

[0016] The filter disc and connecting column are designed to slide up and down, and are driven by a stepping cylinder, making the placement and removal of scrap metal materials simple and convenient. Users only need to control the stepping cylinder to slowly lower or extract the scrap metal materials, greatly reducing the difficulty of operation and labor intensity, and improving work efficiency and safety.

[0017] Convenient for the initial placement and subsequent cleanup of scrap metal materials

[0018] The scrap metal is placed on the filter disc inside the cylindrical filter frame, and the filter moves automatically up and down using the lid and connecting column, making the operation simple and quick. After purification, the filter disc can be lifted to the port position for easy and quick removal, greatly facilitating subsequent cleaning and material replacement.

[0019] In summary, this scrap metal recycling and refining mechanism, through its rational structural design and advanced drive system, effectively integrates key processes such as metal dissolution, stirring, and extraction. This not only significantly improves the dissolution rate and refining efficiency of metal materials but also greatly simplifies the operation process, facilitating the placement and cleaning of scrap metal materials. The equipment boasts high stability and automation, capable of meeting the needs of large-scale, multi-batch scrap metal recycling and refining. It exhibits excellent economic efficiency and practicality, providing a reliable technical guarantee for the efficient utilization of scrap metal resources. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other.

If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0034] Furthermore, "multiple" refers to two or more. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of a person skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by the utility model.

[0035] Please refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a purification mechanism for recycling waste metal, which mainly includes a processing tank 1, a cylindrical filter frame 2, a filter disc 3, a tank cover 4, a connecting column 5, a stepping cylinder 6, a stirring turbine 7, a rotary drive component 8, and a liquid outlet valve pipe 9.

[0036] The treatment tank 1 is a vertical cylindrical structure with a smooth inner wall and a liquid outlet valve 9 at the center of the bottom for discharging the treated liquid. Four evenly distributed support legs 11 are located at the bottom of the treatment tank 1 to ensure stable support of the equipment.

[0037] A cylindrical filter frame 2 is disposed at the center of the interior of the treatment tank 1, with its upper end flush with the upper end of the treatment tank 1. The cylindrical filter frame 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the treatment tank 1 by four side supports 21. A filter disc 3 that can slide up and down is slidably engaged inside the cylindrical filter frame 2, and the filter disc 3 can slide freely within the cylindrical filter frame 2.

[0038] The top of the processing tank 1 is equipped with a tank cover 4, and the center of the bottom of the tank cover 4 is connected to the center of the filter disc 3 via a connecting column 5. The length of the connecting column 5 is consistent with the internal depth of the cylindrical filter frame 2, ensuring the vertical movement range of the filter disc 3 within the cylindrical filter frame 2. The connecting column 5 and the filter disc 3 move up and down with the tank cover 4, so that after the metal material on the waste material is dissolved and purified, it can rise with the filter disc 3 to the upper end position of the cylindrical filter frame 2, making it easy to remove and place new waste metal material to be dissolved and purified.

[0039] Stepping cylinders 6 are installed on the left and right walls of the outer side of the treatment tank 1. The extension and retraction of their piston rods are the same as the length of the connecting column 5. They are used to drive the tank cover 4 and the connecting column 5 to move the filter disc 3 up and down, so that the filter disc 3 can slide on the cylindrical filter frame 2. This allows the waste metal material to be treated to be lowered into the treatment liquid, and the treated material to be lifted out of the liquid surface for cleaning.

[0040] A ring-shaped stirring turbine 7 is installed at the bottom of the processing tank 1. The stirring turbine 7 has an overall ring structure and avoids the liquid outlet 9 at the center of the bottom of the processing tank. The outer wheel surface of the stirring turbine 7 is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the processing tank 1 to ensure the stirring effect. Multiple stirring blades 71 are evenly distributed on the inner wheel surface of the stirring turbine 7 to fully drive the processing liquid in the tank to stir, thereby agitating the waste metal material to be processed inside the cylindrical filter frame 2 and on the filter plate 3, accelerating the dissolution of the metal material, and preventing the waste metal material from being unable to contact the processing liquid at the stacked position. Several magnets 72 are evenly embedded in the center of the worm gear inside the stirring turbine 7. The magnets 72 are magnetically dissimilar to the magnetic blocks 82 in the rotating drive component 8, ensuring the magnetic attraction between the magnetic blocks 82 and the magnets 72.

[0041] A rotary drive component 8 is mounted on the outer bottom of the processing tank 1 and is used to drive the stirring turbine 7 to rotate. The rotary drive component 8 includes a drive ring 81, a transmission gear ring 83, a drive gear 84, magnetic blocks 82, and a drive motor 85. The drive ring 81 is used to position multiple magnetic blocks 82. The magnetic blocks 82 are magnetically attracted to the magnets 72 embedded in the stirring turbine 7, realizing magnetic transmission. The transmission gear ring 83 is mounted on the inner ring of the drive ring 81, and its inner ring meshes with the drive gear 84. The drive gear 84 is driven to rotate by the drive motor 85 mounted on the mounting bracket 86 on the right side of the bottom of the outer tank of the processing tank 1, which drives the transmission gear ring 83 and the drive ring 81 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the stirring turbine 7 to rotate.

[0042] The workflow of this scrap metal recycling and refining facility is as follows:

[0043] First, the scrap metal to be processed is placed on the filter disc 3 inside the cylindrical filter frame 2. The tank cover 4 is connected to the filter disc 3 via the connecting column 5 and driven by the stepping cylinder 6, causing the filter disc 3, along with the scrap metal, to slowly descend into the processing liquid in the processing tank 1. Subsequently, the annular stirring turbine 7 begins to rotate under the drive of the rotating drive component 8. The stirring blades 71 thoroughly agitate the processing liquid in the tank, enhancing the fluidity and uniformity of the liquid, preventing the accumulation of scrap metal, and promoting the rapid dissolution and purification of the metal.

[0044] After the metal dissolution and purification are completed, the stepping cylinder 6 drives the tank cover 4 and connecting column 5 to lift the filter plate 3, raising the treated waste metal material from the treatment liquid to the upper port of the cylindrical filter frame 2 for easy removal and replacement with new material to be treated. During the process, the liquid outlet valve pipe 9 at the bottom can be used to discharge the treated liquid, ensuring continuous operation of the system and liquid replacement.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0046] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0047] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution.
