Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of battery recycling equipment, and in particular relates to an automatic cleaning device for waste battery casings. Background Technology

[0002] A device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy is called a chemical battery, or simply a battery. After discharging, it can be regenerated by charging its internal active materials—storing electrical energy as chemical energy; when it needs to be discharged again, it converts chemical energy back into electrical energy. This type of battery is called a storage battery, also known as a secondary battery or lead-acid battery. Improper disposal of batteries after use can cause electrolyte leakage and pollution; therefore, battery recycling is crucial. The battery recycling process generally requires crushing the battery and separating the metal fragments from scrap metal.

[0003] Existing technologies include an automatic cleaning device for waste battery casings disclosed in Chinese Patent (CN217094677U). This device uses a bracket and support wheels to support the roller. A narrow neck with a drive wheel securely holding the roller in place, preventing displacement. The drive wheel is connected to a drive rod, and a transmission device is mounted on the drive rod. When activated, the drive device rotates the drive wheel via the drive rod, which in turn rotates the roller. This rotation of the roller allows the material to be cleaned to tumble, enhancing the cleaning effect. Furthermore, this embodiment incorporates a water injection device, connecting multiple high-pressure water pipes with multiple outlets. This ensures more even water distribution and a more comprehensive cleaning surface.

[0004] This method has the following drawbacks: First, the device cleans the battery casings inside the drum. After cleaning, the material accumulates at the bottom of the drum, requiring manual removal or disassembly of the drum to empty the material. Both methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive, reducing the cleaning efficiency of waste battery casings. Second, after crushing, some solid lead paste adheres to the casing. After cleaning, the lead paste mixes with other solid fertilizers in the wastewater. The device lacks a recycling mechanism to recover useful substances from the wastewater, resulting in reduced resource recovery efficiency. Third, the cleaned casings are covered with a large amount of water. During the transfer process after emptying, wastewater accumulates in the material pile and overflows, causing environmental pollution during the transfer process.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides an automatic cleaning device for waste battery casings. Utility Model Content

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0024] The prior art in this embodiment has the following problems: The inventors have found the following defects in the prior art: 1. The device cleans the battery casing inside the drum. After cleaning, the material accumulates at the bottom of the drum, requiring manual removal of the cleaned material or disassembling the drum to pour out the material. Both methods of removing the material are time-consuming and laborious, reducing the cleaning efficiency of the waste battery casing; 2. After the casing material is crushed, some solid lead paste will stick to the casing. After cleaning, the lead paste mixes with other solid fertilizers in the wastewater. The device does not have a recycling mechanism to recover the useful substances in the cleaning wastewater, resulting in a decrease in the resource recycling efficiency of the device; 3. The casing is covered with a large amount of water after cleaning. During the transfer process after the casing material is poured out, the wastewater in the material pile will accumulate and overflow, causing the wastewater to pollute the environment during the transfer process;

[0025] Therefore, as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the inventor provides an automatic cleaning device for waste battery casings, including a cleaning water pipe 1, a device body, a sewage pipe 2, a mud pump 3, and a recycling pipe 4. The cleaning water pipe 1 is located on the left side of the device body, the mud pump 3 is located on the right side of the device body, and the left inlet of the mud pump 3 is connected to the lower outlet of the device body through the sewage pipe 2. The recycling pipe 4 is located on the upper outlet of the mud pump 3. The device body is electrically connected to a workshop control cabinet (not shown in the figure). The device body also includes an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder, and a lifting mechanism. The inner cylinder is located inside the outer cylinder, and lifting mechanisms that can control the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder to automatically discharge the processed material are respectively provided above the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder.

[0026] Using the above method, the waste battery casing 6 is placed from the outer cylinder into the inner cylinder. Cleaning water is introduced into the inner cylinder through the cleaning water pipe 1, and the material in the inner cylinder is agitated and cleaned, removing the stains attached to the surface of the material. After cleaning, the electric valve on the sewage pipe 2 is opened on the control cabinet to pump the collected sewage through the mud pump 3 to the subsequent filtration and separation device for filtration and recycling. Then, the control cabinet controls the inner cylinder to spin dry the water on the surface of the material, and controls the lifting mechanism to lift the inner cylinder, so that the material inside the inner cylinder is automatically discharged to the right. The operator checks whether the discharged material meets the cleaning standard. Material that does not meet the standard can be put back into the device and cleaned in the same way until it is clean. The sewage generated in the process is collected and recycled by the device.

[0027] Furthermore, the outer cylinder also includes a main body support 5, an outer shell 6, a sewage collection hopper 7, a feed hopper 8, a feed inlet 9, a discharge hopper 10, and a discharge outlet 11. The outer shell 6 is located above the main body support 5, the sewage collection hopper 7 is located below the outer shell 6, the feed inlet 9 is located on the left side of the outer shell 6, the feed hopper 8 is located on the left side of the feed inlet 9, the feed inlet 9 is located on the right side of the outer shell 6 and below the feed inlet 9, and the discharge hopper 10 is located on the right side of the discharge outlet 11.

[0028] When feeding materials into the device, the materials are poured into the feed hopper 8 and enter the inner cylinder through the feed port 9. After the materials are stirred and cleaned in the outer shell 6, the inner cylinder is lifted upwards, and the materials are discharged from the discharge port 11 onto the discharge hopper 10 and discharged from the device. The wastewater generated is collected through the wastewater collection hopper 7 and then pumped out through the sewage discharge pipe 2 by the mud pump 3 to the recycling pipe 4. The wastewater is then discharged into the subsequent recycling and treatment device through the recycling pipe 4, thus completing the collection and recycling of wastewater.

[0029] Furthermore, the inner cylinder also includes a top cover 12, a cleaning cylinder 13, a drive motor a14, a rotating shaft 15, and a stirring rod 16. The top cover 12 is positioned above the cleaning cylinder 13, and the side of the top cover 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 6. The drive motor a14 is positioned above the top cover 12, and the rotating shaft 15 is positioned below the drive motor a14. The rotating shaft 15 is rotatably positioned inside the cleaning cylinder 13, and the stirring rod 16 is spirally positioned on the side of the rotating shaft 15.

[0030] During the cleaning process, the drive motor a14 on the top cover 12 drives the stirring rod 16 on the rotating shaft 15 to rotate, mixing and agitating the material with the sewage. The stirring rod 16 can be made of wear-resistant rubber to enhance the stirring effect while preventing the material from breaking and producing debris during the stirring process. This allows the dirt on the material to be washed away by the water flow, achieving a cleaning effect. The rotation of the stirring rod 16 also provides power during the process of drying the material, causing the material to separate under the stirring action. The water on the material is thrown out under the centrifugal action. After the material is dried, the stirring rod 16 with a spiral structure can also push the material from the discharge port 11 onto the discharge hopper 10, completing the automatic material pushing.

[0031] Furthermore, the cleaning cylinder 13 is also provided with a water filter hole 17, a feed window 18, and a discharge valve plate 19. The water filter hole 17 is located at the bottom and side of the cleaning cylinder 13, the feed window 18 is located on the upper left side of the cleaning cylinder, and the discharge valve plate 19 is located on the lower right side of the cleaning cylinder 13.

[0032] The filter holes 17 on the side of the cleaning cylinder 13 allow water flushed down inside the cylinder to be discharged during the cleaning process, enabling sludge in the wastewater to accumulate and settle in the wastewater collection hopper 7. When the device spins dry the material, water can be discharged through the filter holes 17. When the cleaning cylinder 13 is lifted to the material replenishment position by the lifting mechanism, the feed inlet 9 faces the feed window 18. Material placed in the feed hopper 8 is fed into the cleaning cylinder 13 through the feed inlet 9 and feed window 18. When the cleaning cylinder 13 is in the bottom cleaning state, the feed window 18 faces the cleaning water pipe 1, allowing cleaning water to flow through. The material is directly discharged into the washing cylinder 13 to rinse the agitated material. After washing, when the washing cylinder 13 is lifted to the material discharge position by the lifting mechanism, the discharge valve plate 19 automatically opens, and the agitated material is discharged into the discharge hopper 10 in conjunction with the stirring rod 16. Through the cooperation of the washing cylinder 13, the sewage pipe 2 and the lifting mechanism, the device can automatically spin-dry and remove water from the washed material, removing residual water from the material and preventing residual water from causing environmental pollution during subsequent transportation. At the same time, the sewage and the spun-out water are collected and recycled to recover the recyclable materials, thereby improving the resource recovery efficiency.

[0033] Furthermore, the discharge valve plate 19 is hinged to the bottom of the cleaning cylinder 13, and a slider 20 is provided on the right side of the discharge valve plate 19.

[0034] When the discharge valve plate 19 is not inside the discharge port 11, the slider 20 on the outside of the discharge valve plate 19 slides on the inner wall of the outer shell 6, restricting the position of the discharge valve plate 19 and closing the discharge valve plate 19. When the discharge valve plate 19 reaches the position of the discharge port 11, the slider 20 loses support, and the discharge valve plate 19 automatically opens outward with the bottom as the axis, so that the material inside the cleaning cylinder 13 can be discharged to the right during the stirring process. After the material is discharged, the lifting mechanism drives the cleaning cylinder 13 to fall back to the position of replenishing the material. During the process, the discharge valve plate 19 is automatically closed by an upward reaction force.

[0035] Furthermore, the height between the inlet 9 and the outlet 11 is less than the height between the inlet window 18 and the outlet valve plate 19;

[0036] When the entire device is in the material replenishment position, the feed window 18 is aligned with the feed inlet 9, and the discharge outlet 11 is located above the discharge valve plate 19, so that the discharge valve plate 19 is in the closed state to prevent material from leaking out from one side of the discharge valve plate 19 after the material is put in. When the device is lifted by the lifting mechanism to the material release position, the feed inlet 9 is located below the feed window 18, and the discharge valve plate 19 is flush with the discharge outlet 11. The discharge valve plate 19 opens automatically, and the material is discharged from the right side. In this way, the cleaned material can be automatically discharged from the device through the control cabinet, saving time and effort and improving the cleaning efficiency of the waste battery casing 6.

[0037] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism also includes a mounting plate 21, a drive motor b22, a mounting bracket 23, and a control screw 24. The mounting plate 21 is positioned above the outer cylinder. The drive motor b22 is mounted on the mounting bracket 23 on the mounting plate 21. The control screw 24 is positioned below the output end of the drive motor b22. The control screw 24 passes through the mounting bracket 23 and is slidably sleeved with the mounting bracket 23. The lower end of the control screw 24 passes through the top cover 12 and is slidably sleeved with the top end of the groove on the outer casing 6. The control screw 24 and the top cover 12 are connected by threads.

[0038] The mounting plate 21 provides support for the drive motor b22 and the mounting bracket 23. The control screw 24 rotates on the mounting bracket 23, and the drive motor b22 drives the control screw 24 to rotate on the outer shell 6 and the mounting bracket 23. The control screw 24 drives the top cover 12 through a threaded connection, allowing the inner cylinder to move inside the outer shell 6. When the device is in the material replenishment state, the drive motor b22 drives the control screw 24 to lift the inner cylinder to a position where the feed inlet 9 and the feed window 18 are flush. After the material is filled, the operator controls the drive motor to start through the control cabinet, causing the inner cylinder to fall above the sewage collection hopper 7. At this time, the cleaning water pipe 1 is aligned with the feed window 18, and the entire device is in the cleaning state. After cleaning, the device automatically discharges the sewage. The machine removes moisture from the material and spins it dry. After the spin-drying operation is completed, the operator controls the drive motor b22 to rotate the control screw 24, raising the inner cylinder to the material discharge position. At this time, the feed port 9 is located below the feed window 18, and the discharge port 11 is aligned with the discharge valve plate 19. The discharge valve plate 19 automatically opens, cooperating with the inner cylinder to discharge the processed material to the right. After the material is discharged, the operator controls the drive motor b22 through the control cabinet to lower the inner cylinder back to the material replenishment position. The operator replenishes the material again, completing the work cycle. Through the above method, the linkage control device automatically completes the cleaning, spin-drying, and wastewater recycling of waste battery casings, improving the working efficiency and automation level of the device.

[0039] In summary, this device is equipped with an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder, and a lifting mechanism. Through automatic control via a control cabinet, the cleaned material is automatically discharged from the device, saving time and labor and improving the cleaning efficiency of waste battery casings 6. It can automatically spin-dry the cleaned material to remove residual moisture, preventing environmental pollution during subsequent transportation. Simultaneously, it collects wastewater and the spun-out water to recycle recyclable materials, improving resource recovery efficiency.

[0040] The working principle of this utility model:

[0041] Mounting plate 21 provides support for drive motor b22 and mounting bracket 23. Control screw 24 rotates on mounting bracket 23. Drive motor b22 drives control screw 24 to rotate on housing 6 and mounting bracket 23. Control screw 24 drives top cover 12 through threaded connection so that inner cylinder can move inside housing 6.

[0042] When the device is in the replenishment state, the drive motor b22 drives the control screw 24 to lift the inner cylinder to the position where the feed inlet 9 is flush with the feed window 18, and pour the material from the feed hopper 8 into the inner cylinder from the feed inlet 9.

[0043] After the filling material is completed, the operator controls the drive motor to start through the control cabinet, so that the inner cylinder falls above the sewage collection hopper 7. At this time, the cleaning water pipe 1 is aligned with the feed window 18, and the whole device is in the cleaning state. Clean water is introduced into the inner cylinder through the cleaning water pipe 1. The drive motor a14 on the top cover 12 drives the stirring rod 16 on the rotating shaft 15 to rotate, mixing and stirring the material and sewage, so that the stains on the material are washed off by the water flow, achieving the cleaning effect. During the cleaning process, the sewage generated is discharged from the filter hole 17, so that the sludge in the sewage can be collected and deposited in the sewage collection hopper 7. After the cleaning is completed, the electric valve on the sewage pipe 2 is opened on the control cabinet to pump the collected sewage through the mud pump 3 to the subsequent filtration and separation device (not shown in the figure) for filtration and recovery. The filtration and separation device can use a negative pressure vacuum filter or a filter press to separate the sludge and sewage.

[0044] After the sewage is discharged, the sewage pipe 2 is closed, and the drive motor a14 drives the stirring rod 16 on the rotating shaft 15 to continue to rotate. The rotation of the stirring rod 16 can also provide power for the material to be spun dry, so that the material is separated under the action of stirring. The water on the material is spun out from the filter hole 17 under the action of centrifugation. After the sewage is spun dry, the sewage is discharged and recycled by opening the sewage pipe 2.

[0045] After the spin-drying operation is completed, the operator controls the drive motor b22 to drive the control screw 24 to rotate, so that the inner cylinder is lifted to the position of discharging material. At this time, the feed port 9 is located below the feed window 18, the discharge port 11 is aligned with the discharge valve plate 19, the slider 20 loses support, the discharge valve plate 19 automatically opens outward with the bottom as the axis, the drive motor a14 drives the stirring rod 16 to rotate, and the stirring rod 16 with the spiral structure pushes the material from the discharge port 11 to the discharge hopper 10, completing the automatic material pushing;

[0046] After the material is discharged, the operator controls the drive motor b22 through the control cabinet to lower the inner cylinder back to the material replenishment position. The operator then replenishes the material again to complete the work cycle.

[0047] This concludes the description of the working principle of the device.
