Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of quartz sand dewatering technology, specifically to a high-efficiency dewatering machine for quartz sand. Background Technology
[0002] Quartz sand is quartz particles produced by crushing quartz stone. Quartz stone is a non-metallic mineral, a hard, wear-resistant, and chemically stable silicate mineral. A dehydrator is required during the processing of quartz sand.
[0003] Patent CN216855766U discloses a quartz sand dewatering tank, including a tank body with a conical top, an end cap with an outlet, a bottom cap with an inlet, and a filter plate; the conical top is located at the lower end in the direction of gravity, the end cap is located at the outlet of the conical top, and the filter plate is located on the end cap; the bottom cap is located at the upper end of the tank body in the direction of gravity.
[0004] Although the device loads freshly rinsed quartz sand into a tank with a conical top, and concentrates a large amount of quartz sand in the inverted tank at the top of the cone, the water in the quartz sand is removed by the fluidity of water and gravity in a static manner. It can process a large amount of rinsed quartz sand at a time, with high overall dewatering efficiency and significantly lower cost compared to spin-drying dewatering, making it suitable for large-scale quartz sand dewatering operations, the device lacks a structure to turn or disperse the quartz sand inside the container. During the dewatering process, the quartz sand is prone to accumulation and clumping, resulting in residual water, incomplete dewatering, and seriously affecting the quality of the quartz sand. In view of this, we propose a high-efficiency dewatering machine for quartz sand. Utility Model Content

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.
[0031] Please see Figures 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-efficiency dewatering machine for quartz sand, including a base plate 1, a dewatering cylinder 2 above the base plate 1, and a plurality of heating rings 26 installed on the outer wall of the dewatering cylinder 2 for heating the quartz sand inside it.

The bottom end of the dewatering cylinder 2 is fixed with a discharge pipe 22 that is connected to its inner cavity. Solenoid valves 23 are installed on the outer walls of both the discharge pipe 22 and the feed funnel 21, and a one-way air valve 25 is installed on the outer wall of the steam outlet pipe 24.
[0034] The dewatering cylinder 2 is equipped with sealing rings at the contact points with the pipe body of the feed funnel 21, the discharge pipe 22, and the steam outlet pipe 24, and the bottom of the dewatering cylinder 2 has a structure that is concave from all sides to the center.
[0035] Several heating rings 26 are arranged from top to bottom, and the heating rings 26 are installed on the outer wall of the dehydration cylinder 2 in a linear and equally spaced manner;
[0036] The thickness of the base plate 1 is preferably 5cm, which makes the dewatering machine more stable in contact with the ground when it is working, effectively preventing the equipment from sliding or shifting, ensuring operational safety and stability, and avoiding the dewatering effect caused by shaking.
[0037] By installing a feed funnel 21 and a steam outlet pipe 24 at the top of the dewatering cylinder 2, and a discharge pipe 22 at the bottom, and installing a solenoid valve 23 and a one-way air valve 25, the inflow and outflow of quartz sand can be controlled, and water vapor can be discharged in one direction, thereby automating the feeding, dewatering, and unloading process and improving the convenience of operation and dewatering efficiency.
[0038] By installing sealing rings at the contact points between the dewatering cylinder 2 and each pipe fitting, and by creating a concave structure at the bottom of the cylinder, the equipment's sealing performance is enhanced, preventing water vapor leakage. At the same time, the concave design facilitates centralized material unloading, reduces residue, and ensures a smooth and efficient dewatering process.
[0039] Several heating rings 26 are arranged linearly and at equal intervals from top to bottom on the outer wall of the dewatering cylinder 2, so that the quartz sand is heated evenly, avoiding local overheating or underheating, improving the dewatering quality and efficiency, and ensuring consistent dewatering effect.
[0040] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-2 , Figure 5 As shown, it also includes: a swing mechanism 3, which is set on the top surface of the base plate 1 and is used to drive the dewatering cylinder 2 to swing. The swing mechanism 3 includes a U-shaped plate 31 with its horizontal end fixed to the top surface of the base plate 1, two rotating rollers 32 fixed to the outer wall of the dewatering cylinder 2 and rotatably connected to the two vertical ends of the U-shaped plate 31 respectively, a rotating rod 33 coaxially fixed to the surface of one of the rotating rollers 32 away from the dewatering cylinder 2, and a swing motor 37 installed on the outer wall of one of the vertical ends of the U-shaped plate 31 and used to drive the rotating rod 33 to rotate.

[0042] Two rotating rollers 32 are fixed to the outer wall of the dewatering cylinder 2 near the left and right ends, respectively, and the central axes of the two rotating rollers 32 are located on the same horizontal line;
[0043] Through the U-shaped plate 31, rotating roller 32 and other components and chain 36 transmission design in the swing mechanism 3, the swing motor 37 drives the dewatering cylinder 2 to swing smoothly, causing the quartz sand to tumble, avoiding accumulation, and increasing the heating and dewatering area.
[0044] By fixing the two rotating rollers 32 to both ends of the outer wall of the dewatering cylinder 2 and aligning their central axes horizontally, the force on the dewatering cylinder 2 is balanced when it swings, reducing shaking and wear, ensuring stable operation of the swinging mechanism, and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0045] In addition, such as Figure 1 , Figures 3-4As shown, it also includes: a stirring mechanism 4, which is set inside the dewatering cylinder 2 and is used to stir the quartz sand inside the dewatering cylinder 2. The stirring mechanism 4 includes a stirring roller 41 rotatably connected to the dewatering cylinder 2, a plurality of stirring rods 42 fixed on the outer wall of the stirring roller 41, and a stirring motor 43 installed on the top surface of the dewatering cylinder 2 and used to drive the stirring roller 41 to rotate.

The output shaft of the stirring motor 43 is coaxially connected to the stirring roller 41. Several stirring rods 42 are located inside the dewatering cylinder 2. The several stirring rods 42 are installed on the outer circumference of the stirring roller 41 in pairs and arranged linearly at equal intervals.
[0047] The stirring roller 41 penetrates through the dewatering cylinder 2 and extends to the bottom. Combined with multiple sets of equally spaced stirring rods 42, the quartz sand is stirred in all directions under the drive of the stirring motor 43, breaking up clumps and ensuring sufficient dewatering, thereby improving dewatering efficiency and quality.
