Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of an automatic salt collection device for snowflake salt production, comprising an evaporating pot body 1, a transmission seat 3 fixedly connected to the top of the evaporating pot body 1, a servo motor 4 fixedly connected to the top of the transmission seat 3, a second transmission rod 14 fixedly connected to the bottom output end of the servo motor 4 located inside the transmission seat 3, lead screws 15 provided on both sides of the second transmission rod 14, a displacement seat 5 provided on the outer side of the lead screws 15, a scraper 7 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the displacement seat 5, a connecting seat 6 fixedly connected to the front end of the displacement seat 5, and a connecting seat 6 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting seat 6. There are six scraper blades 8. One of the scraper blades 8 has a first transmission rod 12 at its top. The first transmission rod 12 has a transmission gear 13 at its top. One side of the transmission gear 13 is located on the outer end face of the transmission seat 3 and has a rack 11. When the displacement seat 5 moves, the transmission gear 13 at the top of one of the scraper blades 8 contacts the rack 11 on the outer side of the transmission seat 3, causing one of the scraper blades 8 to rotate. The six scraper blades 8 cooperate with each other through the transmission wheel 9 and the transmission belt 10 to loosen the salt on the inner wall of the evaporator body 1. The salt is then scraped off and fed by the scraper 7.

[0024] Please see Figures 2-3 In this embodiment, the bottom end of the evaporator body 1 is provided with a discharge port 2, the inner side of the discharge port 2 is provided with a control valve, and the upper part of the discharge port 2 is provided with a filter plate 16 located inside the evaporator body 1. The inner side of the filter plate 16 is provided with water filtering holes, the diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the salt body, so that the salt body and the brine are separated by the filter plate 16.

[0025] Please see Figures 4-5 A transmission wheel 9 is provided on the outer side of the top of the scraper 8, and a transmission belt 10 is provided on the inner side of the transmission wheel 9. The six scrapers 8 are connected by transmission wheel 9 and transmission belt 10. The transmission seat 3 and the rack 11 are integrated structures. The rack 11 meshes with the first transmission rod 12. The bottom end of the second transmission rod 14 and the intersection of the lead screw 15 and the second transmission rod 14 are provided with bevel gears. The lead screw 15 and the second transmission rod 14 are connected by bevel gears. The inner side of the scraper 7 is provided with a threaded hole. One end of the lead screw 15 extends through the threaded hole to the inner side of the transmission seat 3. The lead screw 15 meshes with the scraper 7. The bottom end of the scraper 7 is in contact with the inner wall of the evaporator body 1. Then, the displacement seat 5 is moved at the bottom end of the transmission seat 3 by the servo motor 4 in conjunction with the second transmission rod 14 and the lead screw 15.

[0026] When in operation, the power is turned on and the device is started. The brine is fed into the inner wall of the evaporator body 1. The brine is evaporated to produce salt through the evaporator body 1. When the salt is produced, the servo motor 4, in conjunction with the second transmission rod 14 and the lead screw 15, causes the displacement seat 5 to move at the bottom of the transmission seat 3. When the displacement seat 5 moves, the transmission gear 13 at the top of one of the scrapers 8 contacts the rack 11 on the outside of the transmission seat 3, causing one of the scrapers 8 to rotate. The six scrapers 8 cooperate with each other through the transmission wheel 9 and the transmission belt 10 to loosen the salt on the inner wall of the evaporator body 1. The salt is then scraped off and fed by the scraper 7. A filter plate 16 is provided above the outlet 2 on the inner side of the evaporator body 1. The filter plate 16 has filter holes on the inner side with a diameter smaller than the diameter of the salt. The salt and brine are then separated by the filter plate 16.

[0027] Through the above steps, when the displacement seat 5 is displaced, the transmission gear 13 at the top of one of the scrapers 8 contacts the rack 11 on the outside of the transmission seat 3, causing one of the scrapers 8 to rotate. The six scrapers 8 cooperate with each other through the transmission wheel 9 and the transmission belt 10 to loosen the salt on the inner wall of the evaporator body 1. Then, the scraper 7 scrapes the salt off and feeds it. This solves the problems of the existing snowflake salt evaporator with a flat bottom design, manual salt collection, high labor intensity, the need for supervision during production, high labor costs, and the need for water filtration after salt production, resulting in low production efficiency and large space occupation for subsequent work.
