Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of sludge treatment, specifically a sludge treatment device for water supply and drainage engineering. Background Technology

[0002] In water supply and drainage engineering, sludge generated during wastewater treatment is an unavoidable byproduct. It has a complex composition, containing large amounts of organic matter, pathogenic microorganisms, heavy metals, and other harmful substances. Improper handling can not only cause secondary pollution but also pose a threat to the ecological environment and human health.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN217499023U discloses a sludge treatment device for water supply and drainage engineering, including a treatment tank and a support. The support is fixedly connected to the bottom of the treatment tank, and a waste outlet is opened at the top of one side of the treatment tank. The device is equipped with a waste outlet, baffle, fixing bolts, limiting plate, scraper, connecting shaft, first drive motor, screen, fixing frame, and limiting groove. After the sludge is introduced into the treatment tank, the first drive motor is started to drive the scraper to rotate through the connecting shaft. As the scraper rotates, it moves the sludge at the top of the screen, so that the sludge passes through the screen and falls into the bottom of the treatment tank. The limiting plate inside the treatment tank can limit the scraper through the limiting groove to ensure the stability of the scraper. After filtration, the baffle is removed from the inside of the waste outlet to remove the debris at the top of the screen. This solves the problem of not being able to quickly remove impurities from the sludge.

[0004] The aforementioned prior art can filter and remove impurities from sludge, but it cannot remove wastewater from sludge, thus reducing the water content of sludge. Consequently, the weight of sludge will not decrease, increasing the difficulty of transportation.

[0005] Therefore, how to effectively reduce the weight of sludge and thus reduce the difficulty of sludge transportation is an urgent technical problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0037] 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.

[0038] A sludge treatment device for water supply and drainage engineering, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the system includes a processing tank 1, which contains a solid filter unit for filtering large particulate impurities from the sludge and a liquid filter unit for filtering liquid from the sludge. The solid filter unit is positioned above the liquid filter unit, and a pusher unit for pushing the sludge out of the processing tank 1 is located between the liquid filter unit and the solid filter unit. The solid and liquid filter units are arranged in layers, enabling step-by-step filtration of solid impurities and liquid from the sludge, improving processing efficiency. Large particulate impurities are intercepted first, preventing clogging of subsequent liquid filter units and extending the lifespan of the device. The pusher unit, located between the two filter units, automatically pushes the partially dewatered sludge out of the processing tank, reducing manual intervention and operational intensity. The system is compact, space-saving, and its integrated design combines filtration and discharge functions, reducing reliance on external equipment and making it suitable for site-constrained water supply and drainage engineering scenarios. The solid filter unit removes impurities from the sludge, while the liquid filter unit reduces the sludge's water content, thereby reducing its weight and facilitating subsequent transportation.

[0039] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment, the solid filtration unit includes an inclined filter screen 3, which is connected to the feed inlet 22 and the waste outlet 20 respectively.

[0040] Specifically, a small box 2 is provided on the top of the treatment box 1, and a filter screen 3 is inclinedly inserted into the small box 2. The top of the small box 2 is provided with an inlet 22 for pouring sludge. After the filter screen 3 filters the impurities in the sludge, the sludge falls downwards, and the impurities filtered by the filter screen 3 are discharged from the discharge port 20 provided on the side of the small box 2.

[0041] Specifically, filter screen 3 is a large-aperture filter screen that can filter large impurities in sludge without affecting the passage of sludge through the filter screen 3. The filter screen 3 can be connected to a vibrating motor to facilitate the rolling of impurities remaining on the filter screen 3 at an inclined angle and their discharge from the discharge port 20. The filter screen 3 also includes a vibrating screen or a grid screen. An inclined plate 5 is provided below the filter screen 3, and the sludge filtered from the filter screen 3 is then collected by the inclined plate 5 into the liquid filtration unit.

[0042] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment, the liquid filtration unit includes a second filter screen plate 6, and a pressure plate 8 that moves vertically above the second filter screen plate 6 via a drive unit 1. During the compression of the sludge by the pressure plate 8, water in the sludge passes through the second filter screen plate 6, liquid flows down from the second filter screen plate 6, and the sludge remains on the second filter screen plate 6. The second filter screen plate 6 can be made of nylon filter cloth, sintered metal mesh, or wedge wire mesh.

[0043] Specifically, the mesh count of the second filter plate 6 is less than that of the first filter plate 3.

[0044] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment, the drive unit 1 includes a first hydraulic cylinder 7 connected to the pressure plate 8.

[0045] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment, the pushing unit includes a push plate 9 connected to the second driving unit. The push plate 9 is disposed above the second filter screen plate 6 and moves in the horizontal direction. The push plate 9 is perpendicular to the second filter screen plate 6, and the second filter screen plate 6 is connected to the mud discharge port 21.

[0046] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment, a vertical plate 4 is vertically arranged at the inner end of the filter screen plate 6. The drive unit 2 includes a motor 13 connected to the vertical plate 4. The output shaft of the motor 13 is connected to a drive gear 14. The drive gear 14 meshes with a driven gear 12. The driven gear 12 is fixed to an internal threaded sleeve 10. The internal threaded sleeve 10 is threadedly engaged with a screw 11 connected to the push plate 9. The output shaft of the motor 13 drives the drive gear 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 12 and the internal threaded sleeve 10 to rotate. The internal threaded sleeve 10 is threadedly engaged with the screw 11, causing the push plate 9 to move back and forth.

[0047] Specifically, the driven gear 12 is fixed in axial position and can be connected to the vertical plate 4 by bearings.

[0048] Preferably, two limiting rods are fixedly installed on the push plate 9. Both limiting rods pass through the vertical plate 4 and are slidably connected to the vertical plate 4. By setting the limiting rods, the push plate 9 can be restricted, so that the push plate 9 can move smoothly.

[0049] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment, a baffle 16, which is opened and closed by a second drive unit, is provided on the outer side of the sludge discharge port 21. The baffle 16 is hinged to the outer wall of the treatment tank 1 via a hinge 15. The second drive unit includes a second hydraulic cylinder 19, one end of which is connected to the outer wall of the treatment tank 1, and the other end of which is connected to the baffle 16. When the second hydraulic cylinder 19 extends, it can push the baffle 16 to rotate around the hinge point to open, and the push plate 9 pushes the sludge out of the sludge discharge port 21.

[0050] Specifically, both hinged members 15 are hinged to one side of the treatment box 1, and a baffle 16 is fixedly installed on the two hinged members 15. Two fixing plates 17 are fixedly installed on both sides of the treatment box 1, and two fixing plates 18 are fixedly installed on both sides of the baffle 16. Two second hydraulic cylinders 19 are hinged to the two fixing plates 17, and the output shafts of the two second hydraulic cylinders 19 are hinged to the two fixing plates 18. When the baffle 16 is closed, it can prevent sludge leakage during the sludge squeezing and filtration process; when the baffle 16 is open, it facilitates the discharge of sludge from the treatment box 1. The baffle 16 is compatible with the sludge discharge port 21.

[0051] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the treatment tank 1 is provided with an inclined angle for liquid to be discharged from the drain pipe 23. The filtered liquid flows to the bottom of the treatment tank 1 and is easily discharged from the treatment tank 1 along the inclined angle.

[0052] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0053] First step: When in use, the sludge is fed into the filter box 2 through the feed port 22. The filter screen 3 filters the impurities in the sludge and then falls onto the inclined plate 5. The impurities are discharged from the discharge port 20. At this time, the push plate 9 is attached to the vertical plate 4, the feeding is stopped, and the sludge is allowed to fall onto the filter screen 6. The first hydraulic cylinder 7 is started. The first hydraulic cylinder 7 drives the pressure plate 8 to move down and squeeze the sludge. The sewage in the sludge is filtered out through the filter screen 6.

[0054] Second step: Start the second hydraulic cylinder 19. The second hydraulic cylinder 19 pushes the baffle 16 to open the baffle 16. Start the motor 13. The motor 13 drives the drive gear 14 to rotate. The drive gear 14 drives the driven gear 12 to rotate. The driven gear 12 drives the internal threaded sleeve 10 to rotate. The internal threaded sleeve 10 drives the screw 11 to move. The screw 11 drives the push plate 9 to move, pushing the filtered sludge out of the treatment box 1 through the sludge discharge port 21. After the sludge is discharged from the treatment box 1, the next feeding can be carried out. At this time, the push plate 9 is reset, away from the sludge discharge port 21, and attached to the vertical plate 4.
