Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material separation device technology, specifically to a sedimentation separation mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Most existing negative pressure separation processes for air and materials use a combination of cyclone separators and dust collectors. The principle of a cyclone separator is to use the centrifugal force of rotation to separate air and materials. Dust-laden airflow enters the cylinder at high speed tangentially, forming a rotating vortex. Dust particles are thrown against the cylinder wall by centrifugal force and spiral down to the dust collection hopper. The purified gas forms an upward internal vortex and is discharged through the exhaust pipe. However, cyclone separators are unsuitable for separating materials with high humidity and strong adhesion, as excessive centrifugal force causes the material to stick to the cylinder wall and solidify, making it difficult to remove. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sedimentation separation mechanism to solve at least one of the aforementioned problems in the prior art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A settling separation mechanism includes a housing, an exhaust pipe, and a filter element. The housing is divided into a left chamber and a right chamber by a partition. A funnel-shaped discharge cylinder is located at the bottom of the left chamber. The exhaust pipe is positioned within the left chamber and extends downwards to a lower position within the discharge cylinder. The exhaust end of the exhaust pipe is located at a lower position within the discharge cylinder. The intake end of the exhaust pipe, located outside the housing, is connected to an external conveying pipe. A rotary valve is located at the lower end of the discharge cylinder. The filter element is horizontally positioned within the left chamber, and its exhaust end communicates with the right chamber through ventilation holes on the partition. The right chamber is connected to an exhaust fan via a pipe.
[0006] In this technical solution, the housing is equipped with a partition that divides the housing into a left chamber and a right chamber. The left chamber provides space for the horizontal installation of the filter element, while the right chamber collects the filtered gas and outputs it through a pipeline. Since the lower part of the left chamber has a funnel-shaped discharge cylinder, the exhaust pipe is located in the left chamber and extends downwards to a lower position inside the discharge cylinder. The air outlet of the exhaust pipe is located at a lower position inside the discharge cylinder, and the air inlet of the exhaust pipe outside the housing is connected to an external conveying pipe. The exhaust pipe introduces the external mixed gas into the discharge cylinder. During this process, the material quickly enters the rotary valve below due to inertia and is discharged. The rotary valve has the effect of unloading and avoiding wind. The air filtered by the filter element is sucked away by the exhaust fan. A rotary valve is provided at the lower end of the discharge cylinder to facilitate the discharge of filtered material; the filter element is horizontally arranged in the left chamber, and the filter element plays the role of filtering dust in the air. The air outlet of the filter element is connected to the right chamber through the ventilation hole on the partition. The right chamber is connected to the induced draft fan through the pipe. The filtered air enters the right chamber and is output through the pipe.
[0007] In summary, this technical solution introduces the mixed gas into the lower part of the discharge cylinder, and the filter element is horizontally set in the left chamber. The mixed gas enters the box, and the separation of material and gas can be achieved by the material's own weight and sudden pressure relief. During this process, the mixed gas will not generate a rotating vortex, reducing the possibility of viscous material contaminating the container wall, making it more suitable for the separation of viscous material mixed gas.
[0008] Furthermore, the housing includes a shell and a cover, the cover being used to seal the front ends of the left and right chambers, facilitating quick opening for cleaning or replacement of the filter element.
[0009] Furthermore, to facilitate connection with the induced draft fan, an air outlet is provided on the right side chamber, and the air outlet is connected to the induced draft fan through a pipe.
[0010] Furthermore, in order to achieve a noise reduction effect, a silencer is connected to the air outlet of the induced draft fan.
[0011] Furthermore, in order to improve the uniformity of gas mixture filtration, the filter element is horizontally positioned in the middle of the left chamber, and both ends of the filter element are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the left chamber.
[0012] Furthermore, in order to improve the reliability of the connection between the air duct and the housing, the air duct and the housing are integrally formed.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this technical solution, a partition is provided inside the box, which divides the box into a left chamber and a right chamber. The left chamber provides space for the horizontal installation of the filter element, while the right chamber can collect the filtered gas and output it through a pipe. Since a funnel-shaped discharge cylinder is provided at the bottom of the left chamber, the air duct is set in the left chamber and extends downward from the left chamber to a lower position inside the discharge cylinder. The air outlet of the air duct is located at a lower position inside the discharge cylinder, and the air inlet of the air duct outside the box is connected to an external conveying pipe. The air duct introduces the external mixed gas into the discharge cylinder. During this process, the material quickly enters the lower rotary valve for discharge due to inertia. The rotary valve plays a role in unloading and wind protection. The air filtered by the filter element is sucked away by the blower. A rotary valve is provided at the lower end of the discharge cylinder to facilitate the discharge of filtered material; the filter element is horizontally arranged in the left chamber, and the filter element plays the role of filtering dust in the air. The air outlet of the filter element is connected to the right chamber through the ventilation hole on the partition. The right chamber is connected to the induced draft fan through the pipe. The filtered air enters the right chamber and is output through the pipe.
[0014] In summary, this technical solution introduces the mixed gas into the lower part of the discharge cylinder, and the filter element is horizontally set in the left chamber. The mixed gas enters the box, and the separation of material and gas can be achieved by the material's own weight and sudden pressure relief. During this process, the mixed gas will not generate a rotating vortex, reducing the possibility of viscous material contaminating the container wall, making it more suitable for the separation of viscous material mixed gas.

The left chamber 4 provides space for the horizontal installation of the filter element 8, and the right chamber 5 can collect the filtered gas and output it through a pipeline. Since the lower part of the left chamber 4 is equipped with a funnel-shaped discharge cylinder 6, the air duct 2 is set in the left chamber 4 and extends downward from the left chamber 4 to a lower position in the discharge cylinder 6. The air outlet of the air duct 2 is located in a lower position in the discharge cylinder 6. The air inlet of the air duct 2 located outside the housing 1 is connected to an external conveying pipe.
