Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline technology, specifically to an electrolyte container pipeline with self-cleaning function. Background Technology

[0002] Electrolyte containers and pipelines play a crucial role in the production, transportation, and application of electrolytes, responsible for transporting the electrolyte from storage devices to various stages of use. However, electrolytes often carry various impurities and debris, such as solid particles and metal shavings. When the electrolyte flows through the pipelines, these impurities and debris enter the pipelines along with the electrolyte and easily accumulate at the filter screen.

[0003] Currently, most existing electrolyte containers and pipelines are only equipped with simple filters for filtering impurities. In actual use, as the filters continuously remove impurities from the electrolyte, their surfaces gradually become clogged. Once the filters are heavily clogged, the flow of electrolyte is severely impeded, leading to poor electrolyte delivery or even a complete interruption. This not only affects normal production but may also damage equipment that uses the electrolyte subsequently.

[0004] However, existing electrolyte containers and pipelines with self-cleaning functions still have some drawbacks in practical use: traditional methods usually require manual periodic shutdowns for cleaning or replacement of the filter screen. Manually cleaning the filter screen is not only labor-intensive, requiring a significant amount of manpower and time, but also involves disassembling the pipeline and filter screen, which is cumbersome and can easily damage both. Furthermore, stopping the machine for filter screen cleaning or replacement leads to production interruptions, reducing production efficiency and increasing production costs.

[0005] To address this issue, we designed an electrolyte container pipeline with a self-cleaning function. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an electrolyte container pipeline with a self-cleaning function to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an electrolyte container pipeline with self-cleaning function, including a main pipeline, a branch pipeline on one side of the main pipeline, both ends of the branch pipeline being fixedly installed on the outer arc wall of the main pipeline, the main pipeline and the branch pipeline being internally connected, a filter screen being installed at one connection point of the main pipeline and the branch pipeline, a fixing block being installed inside the main pipeline, the fixing block being located between the two connection points of the branch pipeline and the main pipeline, a first liquid guiding groove, a second liquid guiding groove and a third liquid guiding groove being opened inside the main pipeline, and the first liquid guiding groove, the second liquid guiding groove and the third liquid guiding groove being interconnected, a guide rod being fixedly connected to one side of the main pipeline, a sleeve block being slidably connected to the guide rod, two connecting rods being symmetrically installed on the outside of the sleeve block, the two connecting rods having a common connection at their far ends, the annular scraper being slidably abutting against the inner wall of the main pipeline, a reciprocating screw being rotatably connected to one side of the fixing block, the connecting rod being slidably disposed outside the reciprocating screw, a triggering component being installed in the first liquid guiding groove, and a transmission component being installed in the second liquid guiding groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the triggering component includes a sealing plug, which is slidably disposed within the first liquid guiding groove and is elastically connected to the bottom wall of the first liquid guiding groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes a threaded rod, which is rotatably mounted on the inner sidewall of the second liquid guide groove. A first bevel gear is fixedly connected to the outer arc wall of the threaded rod, and a second bevel gear is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating screw extending into the second liquid guide groove. The first bevel gear and the second bevel gear are meshed together.

[0010] Furthermore, a movable ring is slidably connected to the reciprocating lead screw, and mounting plates are fixedly connected to both ends of the movable ring. A slider is fixedly connected to one of the mounting plates on the side near the reciprocating lead screw, and the slider movably fits against the reciprocating lead screw rail.

[0011] Furthermore, a sleeve is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the first liquid guiding groove, a telescopic rod is slidably inserted into the sleeve, the telescopic rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sealing plug, and a return spring is sleeved on the outer arc wall of the sleeve.

[0012] Furthermore, a protective cover is provided on the outer side of the meshing area of ​​the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear.

[0013] Furthermore, a fan blade is fixedly installed on the outer arc wall of the threaded rod.

[0014] Furthermore, two reinforcing rods are fixedly installed between the annular scraper and the connecting rod.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] 1. In this utility model, the continuously flowing electrolyte is hydraulically squeezed through the sealing plug, causing the telescopic rod and return spring to retract and expose the second liquid guide groove. The electrolyte flows into the second liquid guide groove and contacts the inclined fan blade, pushing the fan blade to drive the threaded rod to rotate, thereby triggering the linkage of a series of transmission components. Finally, the annular scraper crushes and scrapes away the impurities and debris on the inner wall of the filter screen. This automatic cleaning function avoids the problem of poor electrolyte delivery caused by filter screen blockage, reduces the workload of manual filter screen cleaning and downtime, and improves production efficiency.

[0017] 2. In this utility model, the rotation of the fan blade is converted into the linear movement of the sleeve block through the transmission cooperation of the threaded rod, the first bevel gear, the second bevel gear and the reciprocating screw, thereby driving the annular scraper to clean the filter screen. The self-cleaning of the pipeline is achieved by utilizing the impact force of the electrolyte flow, which saves time and effort and can ensure that the container pipeline is unobstructed for a long time.

[0024] 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.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an electrolyte container pipeline with self-cleaning function, including a main pipeline 1, a branch pipeline 2 on one side of the main pipeline 1, both ends of the branch pipeline 2 being fixedly installed on the outer arc wall of the main pipeline 1, the main pipeline 1 and the branch pipeline 2 being internally connected, a filter screen 3 being provided at one connection point between the main pipeline 1 and the branch pipeline 2, a fixing block 4 being provided inside the main pipeline 1, the fixing block 4 being located between the two connection points of the branch pipeline 2 and the main pipeline 1, and a first liquid guiding groove 5, a second liquid guiding groove 6 and a third liquid guiding groove 7 being provided inside the main pipeline 1, and the first liquid guiding groove 5 being... Liquid tank 5, second liquid guide tank 6 and third liquid guide tank 7 are interconnected. A guide rod 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the main pipe 1. A sleeve block 9 is slidably connected to the guide rod 8. Two connecting rods 10 are symmetrically installed on the outside of the sleeve block 9. The two connecting rods 10 are connected to an annular scraper 11 at their far ends. The annular scraper 11 slides against the inner wall of the main pipe 1. A reciprocating screw 12 is rotatably connected to one side of the fixed block 4. The connecting rods 10 are slidably arranged on the outside of the reciprocating screw 12. A triggering component is installed in the first liquid guide tank 5 and a transmission component is installed in the second liquid guide tank 6.

[0026] In practice, the electrolyte continuously flows into the main pipe 1 and, upon contacting the surface of the filter screen 3, continuously passes through the filter screen 3, causing the filter screen 3 to filter out impurities and debris carried in the electrolyte. The filtered electrolyte, free of impurities, flows through the branch pipe 2 and is reintroduced into the main pipe 1 for transport. If the surface of the filter screen 3 is blocked by a large amount of impurities and debris, preventing the electrolyte from passing through the filter screen 3, the electrolyte continuously flowing into the main pipe 1 will trigger the hydraulic trigger component, causing the annular scraper 11 to crush and scrape off the impurities and debris on the inner wall of the filter screen 3.

[0027] See Figure 4The triggering component includes a sealing plug 13, which is slidably disposed in the first liquid guiding groove 5. The sealing plug 13 is in contact with the inner arc wall of the first liquid guiding groove 5 and is slidably connected to the inner arc wall of the first liquid guiding groove 5. The sealing plug 13 is also elastically connected to the inner bottom wall of the first liquid guiding groove 5. A sleeve 20 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the first liquid guiding groove 5. A telescopic rod 21 is slidably inserted into the sleeve 20 and is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sealing plug 13. A return spring 22 is sleeved on the outer arc wall of the sleeve 20. One end of the return spring 22 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the first liquid guiding groove 5, and the other end of the return spring 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sealing plug 13.

[0028] The transmission assembly includes a threaded rod 14, which is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the second liquid guiding groove 6. A first bevel gear 15 is fixedly connected to the outer arc wall of the threaded rod 14. A reciprocating screw 12 passes through the top wall of the fixed block 4 and extends into the interior of the second liquid guiding groove 6. A second bevel gear 16 is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating screw 12 that extends into the second liquid guiding groove 6. The first bevel gear 15 and the second bevel gear 16 are meshed together. A fan blade 24 is fixedly mounted on the outer arc wall of the threaded rod 14. When the electrolyte continuously flows into the second liquid guiding groove 6 and contacts the inclined fan blade 24, it pushes the fan blade 24 to drive the threaded rod 14 to rotate through the bearing. The rotation of the threaded rod 14 drives the first bevel gear 15 fixedly connected to its outer side to rotate. The first bevel gear 15 drives the meshed second bevel gear 16 to rotate. The second bevel gear 16 drives the reciprocating screw 12 to rotate.

[0029] See Figure 5 A movable ring 17 is slidably connected to the reciprocating lead screw 12. Mounting plates 18 are fixedly connected to both ends of the movable ring 17. A slider 19 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 18 near the reciprocating lead screw 12. The slider 19 moves in contact with the lead rail of the reciprocating lead screw 12. The slider 19 on the inner side of the mounting plate 18 will move along the track of the reciprocating lead screw 12. Under the guidance of the guide rod 8, the sleeve block 9 will move. After the sleeve block 9 moves, the annular scraper 11 connected to the outer side of the sleeve block 9 through the connecting rod 10 will crush and scrape off the impurities and debris on the inner wall of the filter screen 3.

[0030] See Figure 4 A protective cover 23 is provided on the outer side of the meshing point of the first bevel gear 15 and the second bevel gear 16. The protective cover 23 protects the meshing point of the first bevel gear 15 and the second bevel gear 16. Two reinforcing rods 25 are fixedly installed between the annular scraper 11 and the connecting rod 10. Both reinforcing rods 25 are perpendicular to the connecting rod 10. The setting of the reinforcing rods 25 enhances the overall structural strength of the device.

[0031] Working principle:

[0032] Electrolyte continuously flows into the main pipe 1 and, upon contact with the surface of the filter screen 3, continuously passes through the filter screen 3, causing the filter screen 3 to filter out impurities and debris carried in the electrolyte. The filtered electrolyte, free of impurities, flows through the branch pipe 2 and is reintroduced into the main pipe 1 for transport. If the surface of the filter screen 3 is blocked by a large amount of impurities and debris, preventing the electrolyte from passing through the filter screen 3, the electrolyte continuously flowing into the main pipe 1 will continuously squeeze the sealing plug 13 through hydraulic pressure, causing the telescopic rod 21 and the outer return spring 22 to retract, exposing the second liquid guide groove 6 inside the fixed block 4. When the electrolyte continuously surges into the second liquid guide groove 6 and contacts the inclined fan blade 24, it pushes the fan blade 24 to drive the threaded rod 14 to rotate through the bearing.

[0033] The rotation of the threaded rod 14 drives the first bevel gear 15 fixedly connected to its outer side to rotate. The first bevel gear 15 drives the meshing second bevel gear 16 to rotate. The second bevel gear 16 drives the reciprocating screw 12 to rotate. At this time, the slider 19 on the inner side of the mounting plate 18 will move along the track of the reciprocating screw 12. Under the guidance of the guide rod 8, the sleeve block 9 will move. After the sleeve block 9 moves, the annular scraper 11 connected to the outer side of the sleeve block 9 through the connecting rod 10 will crush and scrape off the impurities and debris on the inner wall of the filter screen 3.

[0034] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this utility model's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
