Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of wax-water separators, and in particular to a wax-water separator. Background Technology
[0002] A wax-water separator is a device used to separate molten wax and water. It is widely used in precision casting processes. During the dewaxing process, the wax mold is heated and melted into molten wax in the dewaxing kettle and then discharged from the exhaust port. Since the discharged molten wax contains water, it cannot be directly recycled and reused. Therefore, it is necessary to separate the molten wax containing water vapor.
[0003] In related technologies, a wax-water separator includes a shell, inside which are a stirring structure and a heating structure. The stirring structure is used to stir the wax liquid at high speed, and the heating structure is used to heat the wax liquid. The shell is provided with a pipe for discharging the wastewater vapor after wax-water separation into the air.
[0004] After the wax liquid enters the wax-water separator, it is separated at high speed through stirring and heating processes. The separated wastewater vapor is discharged through the exhaust port. However, since some wax gas remains in the wastewater vapor, it will cause environmental pollution if it is released into the air. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to improve the environmental pollution caused by wax fumes being released into the air, this application provides a wax-water separator.
[0006] This application provides a wax-water separator, which adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A wax-water separator includes a housing, within which a stirring structure and a heating structure are provided. The stirring structure is used to stir the wax liquid at high speed, and the heating structure is used to heat the wax liquid. A pipe is provided on the housing for discharging the wastewater vapor after wax-water separation into the air. The separator also includes a solution tank into which the pipe is inserted. The solution tank contains a solution, and one end of the pipe is located in the solution, which has the function of absorbing wax vapor.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, a solution for absorbing wax gas is placed in the container, and one end of the pipe is located in the solution. This allows the wax liquid to be processed by the wax-water separator and then passed into the solution through the pipe, so that the wax gas can be fully absorbed by the solution. This avoids the possibility of wax gas being released into the air and prevents wax gas from polluting the environment.
[0009] Optionally, the solution tank is provided with a drain hole for draining the solution in the solution tank. The drain hole is provided with a first sealing element for sealing the drain hole. The first sealing element is provided with a spring block. The wall of the drain hole is provided with a first slot for inserting the spring block. When the first sealing element is installed on the wall of the drain hole, the spring block is inserted into the first slot and the spring block deforms.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first sealing element is installed on the wall of the drain hole, the spring block is inserted into the first slot. The deformation of the spring block fixes the first sealing element and the wall of the drain hole, allowing the first sealing element to remain in a state of blocking the drain hole and preventing the solution in the solution tank from flowing out of the drain hole.
[0011] Optionally, a limiting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the solution tank, and a limiting groove is provided on the first sealing member for the limiting rod to be inserted. When the limiting rod is inserted into the limiting groove, the first sealing member and the solution tank are fixed.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the first sealing element is more tightly fixed at the opening of the drain hole by inserting the limiting rod into the limiting groove, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the first sealing element and reducing the possibility of displacement of the first sealing element due to water flow impact.
[0013] Optionally, the solution tank is provided with a drain pipe, the drain hole has a protrusion on its wall, the drain pipe has a groove for the protrusion to be inserted into, the drain pipe has a through hole that communicates with the groove, and the groove has an elastic locking block; when the locking block is located on the disengagement path of the protrusion, the drain pipe is fixed to the solution tank.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the staff inserts the protrusion on the drain pipe into the through hole, allowing the protrusion to enter the groove. The staff then rotates the drain pipe, causing the protrusion to move between the locking block and the groove wall via the locking block. That is, the locking block is located on the disengagement path of the protrusion, thereby fixing the drain pipe and the container. The solution in the solution tank can be discharged to other locations through the drain pipe, making it convenient for the staff to clean the solution tank.
[0015] Optionally, the drain pipe is provided with a fixing rod, which drives the first sealing element to disengage from the drain hole when the drain pipe is installed on the drain hole.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the drain pipe is inserted into the drain hole, the fixed rod on the drain pipe can drive the first sealing element to disengage from the drain hole, thereby releasing the blockage of the drain hole. The first sealing element can be disengaged from the drain hole without the operator having to come into contact with the solution, thus preventing the solution from damaging the operator's hands.
[0017] Optionally, the inner wall of the solution tank is provided with an iron sheet, and the first sealing element is provided with a magnet. When the magnet is attracted to the iron sheet, the first sealing element does not block the drain hole.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the fixing rod drives the first sealing element to disengage from the drain hole, the magnet on the first sealing element can be attracted to the iron sheet, thereby fixing the first sealing element in the solution tank and preventing the first sealing element from blocking the drain hole due to the solution flowing towards the drain hole.
[0019] Optionally, a fixing groove is provided on the inner wall of the solution tank, and a fixing plate for shielding the solution tank is slidably connected in the fixing groove. The fixing plate is provided with a through hole for inserting a pipe.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, a fixing plate is slidably connected in the fixing groove. When the fixing plate covers the solution tank, the possibility of solution evaporation in the solution tank can be reduced. When the fixing plate does not cover the solution tank, the staff can see the solution in the solution tank more clearly, and it also provides convenience for the staff to replace the solution in the solution tank.
[0021] Optionally, the fixing plate has a receiving groove, the groove wall is provided with a spring, the spring is provided with a fixing block, the spring is used to drive the fixing block to move away from the receiving groove, the fixing plate has a placement groove for the fixing block to be inserted, and when the fixing block is inserted into the placement groove, the fixing plate does not completely block the opening of the solution tank.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, when the staff removes the fixing plate, the fixing block is inserted into the placement groove to fix the fixing plate and the solution tank, thereby reducing the possibility that the fixing plate will completely block the solution tank due to the influence of factors such as strong winds. By ensuring that the fixing plate does not completely block the opening of the solution tank, the pressure inside and outside the solution tank is equal.
[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0024] 1. By placing a solution that absorbs wax fumes inside the container, with one end of the pipe located in the solution, the wax liquid is processed by a wax-water separator and then passed into the solution through the pipe. This allows the wax fumes to be fully absorbed by the solution, thereby preventing the possibility of wax fumes being released into the air and preventing wax fumes from polluting the environment.
[0025] 2. When the first seal is installed on the wall of the drain hole, the spring block is inserted into the first slot. The deformation of the spring block fixes the first seal to the wall of the drain hole, allowing the first seal to remain in a blocked state and prevent the solution in the solution tank from flowing out of the drain hole.

Detailed Implementation
[0033] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.
[0034] Example 1
[0035] This embodiment discloses a wax-water separator. (Refer to...) Figure 1 A wax-water separator includes a housing 1 and a solution tank 2. A stirring structure 11 and a heating structure 12 are fixedly connected inside the housing 1. The stirring structure 11 is located on the side of the heating structure 12 closest to the ground. The stirring structure 11 is used to highly stir the wax liquid, and the heating structure 12 is used to heat the wax liquid. A pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the end of the housing 1 furthest from the ground. The pipe 3 is used to discharge wastewater vapor after wax-water separation. A drive assembly 4, including a fan, is fixedly connected to the pipe 3. The fan is used to drive the wastewater vapor into the solution tank 2.
[0036] Reference Figure 1A container 21 is provided on the surface of the solution tank 2 away from the ground. The container 21 contains a solution that absorbs wax gas, and the solution is diesel oil. A fixing plate 22 is detachably connected to the opening of the solution tank 2. The fixing plate 22 is used to cover the solution tank 2. A fixing hole 221 is provided on the surface of the fixing plate 22. The end of the pipe 3 away from the shell 1 is inserted into the fixing hole 221 and extends into the solution.
[0037] The implementation principle of Example 1 is as follows: the wax liquid is separated by passing through the stirring structure 11 and the heating structure 12 in sequence. The waste water vapor after wax liquid separation enters the solution in the container tank 21 through the pipe 3, and the wax gas is fully absorbed and treated by the solution.
[0038] Example 2
[0039] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that a drain hole 23 for discharging the solution is provided on the surface of the solution tank 2, and a first sealing member 5 for sealing the drain hole 23 is detachably connected to the drain hole 23. A plurality of spring blocks 51 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the first sealing member 5, and the plurality of spring blocks 51 are distributed in a circumferential array along the first sealing member 5. A first slot 231 for inserting the spring blocks 51 is provided on the end wall of the drain hole 23 near the receiving groove 21. A plurality of first slots 231 are provided, and the plurality of first slots 231 are distributed in a circumferential array along the drain hole 23.
[0040] Reference Figure 3 An operating hole communicating with a drain hole 23 is provided on the end face of the solution tank 2. The operating hole extends vertically, and a limiting rod 24 is slidably connected inside the operating hole. The limiting rod 24 slides vertically, and a limiting groove 52 is provided on the first sealing member 5 for the limiting rod 24 to be inserted. When multiple spring blocks 51 are inserted into the corresponding first slots 231, the spring blocks 51 deform, and the limiting rod 24 can be inserted into the limiting groove 52, thus fixing the first sealing member 5 and the hole wall of the drain hole 23.
[0041] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A drain pipe 6 is detachably connected to the solution tank 2. A protrusion 53 is fixedly connected to the wall of the drain hole 23. A groove 61 for inserting the protrusion 53 is formed on the outer surface of the drain pipe 6, and the groove 61 extends circumferentially along the drain pipe 6. A through hole 62 is formed on the end face of the drain pipe 6, which communicates with the groove 61. An elastic locking block 611 is fixedly connected to the wall of the groove 61, and the locking block 611 can pass through the through hole 62 and be inserted into the groove 61. When the locking block 611 is located on the movement path of the protrusion 53 disengaging from the groove 61, the drain pipe 6 is fixed to the solution tank 2.
[0042] Reference Figure 3A fixing rod 63 is fixedly connected to the end face of the drain pipe 6 with a through hole 62. The length of the fixing rod 63 is greater than the length of the drain hole 23. When the drain pipe 6 abuts against the wall of the drain hole 23 and the limiting rod 24 disengages from the limiting groove 52, the fixing rod 63 drives the first sealing member 5 to disengage from the drain hole 23.
[0043] Reference Figure 3 A second slot 211 is formed on the bottom wall of the receiving groove 21, and an iron piece 212 is fixedly connected in the second slot 211. A third slot 213 is formed on the surface of the first sealing member 5, and a magnet 214 is fixedly connected in the third slot 213. When the first sealing member 5 is disengaged from the drain hole 23, the magnet 214 attracts the iron piece 212, and the first sealing member 5 is fixed in the receiving groove 21. At this time, the first sealing member 5 does not block the drain hole 23.
[0044] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 A fixing groove 25 is provided on the surface of the solution tank 2 near the blower. The fixing groove 25 penetrates the inner wall of the corresponding two sides of the solution tank 2, and the fixing plate 22 is slidably connected in the fixing groove 25.
[0045] Reference Figure 5 The fixing groove 25 has a receiving groove 251 on each side of the groove wall. A spring 252 is provided on the bottom wall of the receiving groove 251. A fixing block 253 is fixedly connected to the end of the spring 252 away from the bottom wall of the receiving groove 251. The spring 252 is used to drive the fixing block 253 to move away from the receiving groove 251.
[0046] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 A slope 254 is formed on the surface of the fixing block 253 away from the spring 252. The distance from the slope 254 to the bottom wall of the receiving groove 251 gradually increases along the direction in which the fixing plate 22 is inserted into the fixing groove 25. The slope 254 is located on the moving path of the fixing plate 22 in and out of the fixing groove 25. Placement grooves 222 are formed on both sides of the fixing plate 22 for the fixing block 253 to be inserted. When the fixing block 253 is inserted into the placement groove 222, the fixing plate 22 does not completely block the opening of the solution tank 2.
[0047] The implementation principle of Example 2 is as follows: When the staff needs to change the solution in the solution tank 2, the staff first pulls open the fixing plate 22 so that the fixing block 253 is inserted into the placement groove 222 to fix the fixing plate 22. The staff slides the limiting rod 24 to disengage from the limiting groove 52, and then installs the drain pipe 6 on the drain hole 23. At this time, the fixing rod 63 drives the first sealing member 5 to disengage from the drain hole 23, the magnet 214 is attracted to the iron sheet 212, and the solution is discharged from the solution tank 2 along the drain pipe 6.
