Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unloading centrifuge technology, specifically an unloading centrifuge with an automatic tilting function. Background Technology

[0002] A centrifuge is a machine that uses centrifugal force to separate the components of a liquid from solid particles or a mixture of liquids. The magnitude of the centrifugal force is determined by the rotational speed, the radius of rotation, and the mass of the substance. Centrifuges are widely used in chemical engineering, petroleum, food processing, pharmaceuticals, mineral processing, carbon, water treatment, nuclear energy, and shipbuilding industries. To facilitate the unloading of materials from centrifuges, tilting centrifuges have gradually emerged.

[0003] Currently, in existing centrifuges with self-tilting unloading, especially flat-plate unloading centrifuges, the rotating shaft is usually fixed to the outer shell of the centrifuge, and then the rotating shaft is fixed to a support. The centrifuge is then driven by a drive device to rotate the entire centrifuge, thereby achieving unloading by tilting. However, the centrifuge will generate vibration during operation, causing the centrifuge to deviate at an angle along the axis of the rotating shaft. This causes the drive shaft of the drive device to rotate frequently in both directions, which will cause wear on the components of the drive device and seriously reduce the service life of the drive device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a discharge centrifuge with an automatic tilting function to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A discharge centrifuge with automatic tilting function includes a centrifuge body and a base plate. The top surface of the base plate is provided with a tilting mechanism for tilting the centrifuge body. A stabilizing mechanism is provided between the tilting mechanism and the base plate. Two symmetrical support blocks are fixedly connected to one end of the top surface of the base plate.

[0007] The flipping mechanism includes a flipping plate, one end of the bottom surface of which is fixedly connected to a rotating plate that rotates between two support blocks, and two symmetrical driving members are provided between the side of the flipping plate away from the rotating plate and the base plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the top surface of the base plate is fixedly connected to two symmetrical fixing blocks one away from the support block, and the flip plate is fixedly connected to two symmetrical fixing blocks two on one side corresponding to the driving component. The driving component includes a multi-stage electric actuator rotatably connected between the fixing blocks one and the fixing blocks two at the corresponding positions.

[0009] Furthermore, both ends of the multi-stage electric actuator are fixedly connected to a fixed seat, and the two fixed seats at the same multi-stage electric actuator are respectively rotatably connected to fixed block one and fixed block two at corresponding positions.

[0010] Furthermore, the stabilizing mechanism includes multiple shells that are evenly spaced and fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the flip plate. The two long sides of the shells that are opposite to each other are fixedly connected to suction cups by metal tubes at equal intervals. The suction cups are in communication with the interior of the shells at the corresponding positions.

[0011] Furthermore, one end of the housing is fixedly connected to a T-pipe through a connecting pipe, and multiple T-pipes are fixedly connected to a flexible hose. An air pump is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate, and the output end of the air pump is fixedly connected to the flexible hose.

[0012] Furthermore, the base plate has self-locking casters fixedly connected to the four corners of its bottom surface, and lifting components are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base plate.

[0013] Furthermore, a plurality of counterweights are provided on the top surface of the base plate near the fixing block.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. The tilting plate can be supported by two driving components and a stabilizing mechanism and kept parallel to the base plate. This can prevent the tilting plate from rotating due to vibrations generated by the centrifuge body during operation, thereby reducing the rate of damage to the driving components and extending their service life, thus reducing costs.

[0016] 2. By using an air pump to extract gas from multiple housings, multiple suction cups can be firmly attached to the base plate, thus preventing the tilting plate from jumping due to vibrations generated by the centrifuge body. In addition, multiple housings and multiple metal tubes support the tilting plate, thereby reducing the pressure of the centrifuge body's gravity on the two multi-stage electric actuators, thus extending the service life of the multi-stage electric actuators.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 In this embodiment of the present invention, a centrifuge with an automatic flipping function includes a centrifuge body 1 and a base plate 2. The centrifuge body 1 is located above the base plate 2. A flipping mechanism 3 for flipping the centrifuge body 1 is provided on the top surface of the base plate 2. A stabilizing mechanism 4 for increasing the stability of the flipping mechanism 3 is provided between the flipping mechanism 3 and the base plate 2. Two symmetrical support blocks 21 are fixedly connected to one end of the top surface of the base plate 2. The flipping mechanism 3 includes a flipping plate 31. A rotating plate 32 that rotates between the two support blocks 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the bottom surface of the flipping plate 31. Two symmetrical driving members are provided between the side of the flipping plate 31 away from the rotating plate 32 and the base plate 2.

[0024] Specifically, firstly, the centrifuge body 1 is fixed to the top surface of the tilting plate 31 with bolts. Then, the material is poured into the centrifuge body 1. Through the operation of the centrifuge body 1, the liquid undergoes solid-liquid separation. The separated liquid flows out from the discharge port of the centrifuge body 1, while the solid remains inside the centrifuge body 1. When it is necessary to remove the solid from the centrifuge body 1, firstly, the cover of the centrifuge body 1 is opened. Then, by activating the two drive components, the tilting plate 31 drives the centrifuge body 1 to rotate along the axis of the rotating plate 32 and the support block 21 until the opening of the centrifuge body 1 tilts downwards. At this time, the solid inside falls out of the opening of the centrifuge body 1 under its own gravity. After the fixing is completely removed, the two driving components drive the tilting plate 31 to return the centrifuge body 1 to its original position until the stabilizing mechanism 4 is in close contact with the top surface of the bottom plate 2. This device can support the tilting plate 31 through the action of the two driving components and the stabilizing mechanism 4, and keep it parallel to the bottom plate 2. It can prevent the tilting plate 31 from rotating due to the vibration generated by the centrifuge body 1 during operation, thereby reducing the speed of damage to the driving components and extending the service life of the driving components, thus reducing the cost expenditure.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, two symmetrical fixing blocks 22 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate 2 away from the support block 21. Two symmetrical fixing blocks 34 are fixedly connected to the side of the flip plate 31 corresponding to the driving component. The driving component includes a multi-stage electric actuator 33 rotatably connected between the fixing blocks 22 and 34 at the corresponding positions. Both ends of the multi-stage electric actuator 33 are fixedly connected to fixing seats 35. The two fixing seats 35 at the same multi-stage electric actuator 33 are rotatably connected to the fixing blocks 22 and 34 at the corresponding positions, respectively.

[0027] In this embodiment, the flip plate 31 can be driven by two multi-stage electric actuators 33 to rotate the centrifuge body 1 along the axis of the rotating plate 32 and the support block 21 until the opening of the centrifuge body 1 is tilted downward. At this time, the solid inside falls out of the opening of the centrifuge body 1 under its own gravity. After the fixing is completely removed, the flip plate 31 is driven by two multi-stage electric actuators 33 to return the centrifuge body 1 to its original position until the stabilizing mechanism 4 is in close contact with the top surface of the bottom plate 2, which can support the flip plate 31.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] like Figure 4As shown, the stabilizing mechanism 4 includes multiple housings 41 that are evenly spaced and fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the flip plate 31. The two long sides of the housings 41 that are facing away from each other are fixedly connected to suction cups 42 by metal tubes at equal intervals. The suction cups 42 are connected to the interior of the housings 41 at the corresponding positions. One end of the housing 41 is fixedly connected to a three-way pipe 43 through a connecting pipe. The multiple three-way pipes 43 are fixedly connected to each other by a hose 44. An air pump 45 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate 2. The output end of the air pump 45 is fixedly connected to the hose 44.

[0030] In this embodiment, when the centrifuge body 1 needs to be flipped, air is first pumped into the multiple housings 41 by the air pump 45, increasing the pressure inside the housings 41 until the suction force between the suction cups 42 and the base plate 2 is reduced to a minimum. Then, the centrifuge body 1 is flipped by driving the two multi-stage electric actuators 33. When the centrifuge body 1 needs to be returned to its original position, the two multi-stage electric actuators 33 can be driven to return the centrifuge body 1 to its original position until the multiple suction cups 42 are in close contact with the base plate 2 and the multiple housings 41 are in contact with the base plate 2. Then, the air pump 45 extracts the gas from the multiple housings 41, allowing the multiple suction cups 42 to adhere tightly to the base plate 2. This prevents the vibration generated by the centrifuge body 1 from causing the tilting plate 31 to jump. Furthermore, the multiple housings 41 and multiple metal tubes support the tilting plate 31, thereby reducing the pressure of the centrifuge body 1's gravity on the two multi-stage electric actuators 33 and extending their service life. The multi-stage electric actuators 33 and the air pump 45 can be controlled by an external PLC controller.

[0031] Example 3

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, self-locking casters 23 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom surface of the base plate 2, lifting components 24 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base plate 2, and multiple counterweights 25 are provided on the top surface of the base plate 2 near the fixed block 22.

[0033] In this embodiment, the device can be moved by four self-locking casters 23. The lifting component 24 can disengage the four self-locking casters 23 from the ground to prevent the device from moving due to vibrations generated when the centrifuge body 1 is working (the lifting component 24 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here). Multiple counterweights 25 can prevent the device from tipping over when the centrifuge body 1 is turned.

[0034] 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.

[0035] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
