Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of filter press equipment, specifically relating to a frame plate filter press with a cake removal air passage. Background Technology
[0002] A filter press is a crucial piece of equipment in industrial production, its core working principle being the effective separation of solids and liquids based on pressure difference. This equipment mainly consists of several parts, including filter plates, filter cloth, a pressing device, and a frame. In actual operation, a suspension containing solid particles (usually called a slurry) is pumped under pressure into a closed space, or filter chamber, composed of multiple filter plates. During this process, the liquid portion (the filtrate) is discharged through the filtration action of the filter cloth, while the solid particles are retained, ultimately forming a filter cake with a relatively low moisture content. Due to its superior performance in achieving efficient solid-liquid separation, filter presses are widely used in many industrial fields requiring this separation technology, especially in processing materials that are difficult to filter, contain fine particles, or have high viscosity, where they demonstrate unique advantages.
[0003] Plate filter presses, as a special type of filter press, are widely used in many different industrial fields due to their simple maintenance and high-throughput filtration capabilities. However, despite their excellent performance in many aspects, plate filter presses have some significant shortcomings in the cake removal process. These shortcomings are mainly reflected in the cumbersome operation process and the large amount of water consumed during cake removal. Typically, cake removal requires operators to use long-handled tools to tap the filter plates to shake off the sludge clumps adhering to them. Furthermore, thoroughly washing away these sludge clumps requires a large amount of water for rinsing, which not only increases operating costs but also has a potential environmental impact.
[0004] In order to improve the cake removal efficiency of the frame plate filter press, this utility model aims to provide a frame plate filter press with a cake removal air passage. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] A frame-plate filter press with a cake-removing air passage includes a main support 1. At both ends of the main support 1 are a filter press frame 2 and a pressing frame 3, connected by two main beams 4. The filter press frame 2 has four liquid guiding channels 5 and one mud guiding channel 6. The four liquid guiding channels 5 are located at the four corners of the filter press frame 2, and the mud guiding channel 6 is located at the center of the filter press frame 2. A hydraulic plate 7 is provided at the pressing frame 3, and a hydraulic pump 8 is connected to the hydraulic plate 7. Hydraulic plate support wings 9 are provided on both sides of the hydraulic plate 7, and moving wheels 10 are provided below the hydraulic plate support wings 9. The hydraulic plate 7 moves on the main beams 4 via the moving wheels 10.
[0028] Several filter press plate assemblies 11, including filter press plates 12, are mounted on two main beams 4. Filter press plate support wings 13 are provided on both sides of the filter press plate 12, and casters 10 are located below the support wings 13. The filter press plates 12 can move on the main beams 4 via the casters 10. Liquid guide holes 14 are provided at the four corners of the filter press plates 12, and mud guide holes 15 are provided at the center of the filter press plates 12. When the hydraulic plate 7, filter press plates 12, and filter press frame 12 are stacked tightly under the push of the hydraulic pump 8, the four liquid guide holes 14 correspond one-to-one with the four liquid guide channels 5, and the liquid guide holes 14 and liquid guide channels 5 are connected to form channels; similarly, several mud guide holes 15 and mud guide channels 6 are connected to the channels.
[0029] Filter press grooves 16 are provided on both sides of the filter press plate 12, and a pusher plate 17 is hinged to the lower edge of the filter press groove 16. A pusher plate through hole 18 is provided in the center of the pusher plate 17, and a mud-separating ring 19 is provided at the pusher plate through hole 18. The mud-separating ring 19 is made of rubber and has certain deformation properties. When the pusher plate 17 is in contact with the filter press groove 16, the mud-separating ring 19 is just embedded in the inner wall of the mud guide hole 15, and the outer wall of the mud-separating ring 19 is in close contact with the inner wall of the mud guide channel 6. The design of the mud-separating ring 19 effectively prevents a large amount of mud from entering the gap between the pusher plate 17 and the filter press groove 16, while ensuring that the impact of air leakage is minimized when gas is pumped between the two. A limiting block 20 is provided at the hinge of the pusher plate 17 and the filter press groove 16. The limiting block 20 is used to limit the maximum opening angle between the pusher plate 17 and the filter press groove 16. The design of this limiting block 20 is existing technology and is widely used in various industries. An air passage 21 is provided inside the filter press plate 12, and four air ports 22 are provided at the bottom of the filter press tank 16, all of which are connected to the air passage 21. One end of the air passage 21 opens to the top of the filter press plate 12.
[0030] After completing the filtration operation using this device, the operator separates the individual filter press plate assemblies 11, ensuring a certain distance between adjacent plates. Further, the operator pumps air between the pusher plate 17 and the filter press tank 16 through the air passage 21. A sudden increase in instantaneous air pressure within the air passage 21 ejects the pusher plate 17 from the filter press tank 16, causing it to tilt. The filter cake adhering to the surface of the pusher plate 17 detaches from its surface due to inertia and gravity. An A-shaped guide plate 23 is located at the lower part of the main support 1, guiding the filter mud to both sides of the main support 1.
[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
