Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal-organic framework production technology, and in particular to a mixing device for metal-organic framework production. Background Technology

[0002] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of crystalline porous materials with periodic network structures formed by the self-assembly of metal ions or metal clusters and bridging organic ligands. They can be one-dimensional structures, such as linear, helical, or ribbon-like structures extending infinitely in one direction; two-dimensional structures, extending in two mutually perpendicular directions to form planar or layered structures; and commonly three-dimensional structures, extending in three mutually perpendicular directions to form a three-dimensional network structure. Mixing devices are usually required to mix the MOF raw materials.

[0003] In the process of mixing raw materials using a mixing device, the raw materials are usually placed inside the mixing tank, and then mixed by the stirring blades. However, after mixing, some raw materials adhere to the inner wall of the mixing tank and the surface of the stirring blades. If the raw materials remaining on the inner wall of the mixing tank and the surface of the stirring blades are not cleaned in time, it may affect subsequent mixing. Furthermore, it hinders the cleaning of the inner wall of the mixing tank and the surface of the stirring blades, thus impairing the use of the mixing device. Utility Model Content

[0022] Specifically, a limiting groove 24 is formed on the inner wall of the U-shaped plate 10, and a limiting block 25 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the limiting groove 24. One side of the limiting block 25 is fixedly installed on one side of the lifting plate 13 to limit the lifting plate 13, making the lifting of the lifting plate 13 more stable.

A second rotating rod 15 is fixedly installed on the output end of the third motor 14.
