Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an environmental protection device, specifically an overflow height adjustable rotary drum filter. Background Technology
[0002] Rotary drum filters are widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, food, metallurgical, and wastewater treatment industries, especially in industrial production requiring large-scale solid-liquid separation. Their core application environment is treating suspensions with high concentrations, high viscosity, or containing a large number of fine particles, such as in steel plant desulfurization, chemical raw material filtration, food processing, and sludge dewatering. Driven by negative pressure, the equipment adapts to different material characteristics, handling suspensions with high solid particle concentrations as well as colloidal systems or thin suspensions through pre-coating technology, meeting various process requirements. The filtration process takes place in a closed environment, reducing contamination leakage, and maintenance is simple, allowing for excellent filtration operations.
[0003] In the prior art, document 202410184558.3 describes a drum structure and a drum filter. This application provides a drum structure and a drum filter, relating to the field of filtration equipment. It includes a drum, a filter screen, and a sealing assembly. The drum includes a pair of oppositely arranged end caps and a drum frame disposed between the end caps. Each end of the drum frame is connected to an end cap, and each end cap has a water inlet. The filter screen covers the drum frame and, together with the drum frame and end caps, forms a filtration chamber suitable for containing the liquid to be filtered. A sealing assembly is provided between the filter screen and the drum frame. The sealing assembly, from the water-facing direction to the back-water direction, sequentially includes a corrosion-resistant abutment ring and a receiving unit. The liquid to be filtered can apply a force towards the receiving unit to the corrosion-resistant abutment ring. After the corrosion-resistant abutment ring abuts against the receiving unit, the receiving unit can deform to fill the gap between the filter screen and the drum frame. This application has good sealing and corrosion resistance effects and eliminates the need for replacement of the sealing assembly.
[0004] The existing rotary drum filter can support the unit to deform to fill the gap between the filter screen and the drum frame, making it difficult for the liquid to be filtered to continue to seep out of the filter chamber along the gap between the filter screen and the drum frame. However, it also has the problem of not being able to control the opening and closing of the overflow port well, and not being able to divert the overflow position. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies in that the opening and closing of the overflow orifice is difficult to control when overflow is required, this utility model provides an overflow height adjustable rotary drum filter.
[0006] This utility model is achieved using the following technical solution: an overflow height adjustable drum filter, comprising a filter body, a filtration space for filtration within the filter body, a filtration drum for material filtration within the filtration space, an inlet for filtering wastewater and an outlet for discharging filtered water on the filter body, a pump assembly fitting on one side of the filter body (the pump assembly fitting being a water pump), a conveying pipe on the water pump for liquid flow, the conveying pipe being assembled with the filter body, an overflow protection device on one side of the filter body (the overflow protection device for protecting the filter body from water overflow being an overflow protection box), an overflow space within the overflow protection box, a protective overflow plate within the overflow space, and a driving component on the protective overflow plate.
[0007] The driving component is a driving threaded rod, and a protective overflow plate is provided at the bottom of the driving threaded rod. The driving threaded rod and the protective overflow plate are welded together.
[0008] The protective overflow plate is driven by a drive threaded rod, and a hand-held drive component is provided at the top of the drive threaded rod. The hand-held drive component is a hand-held drive wheel.
[0009] An observation component is provided on one side of the filter body, and the observation component used to observe the filtration situation inside the filter body is a movable observation cover.
[0010] A support component is provided between the movable observation cover and the filter body, and the support component used to support the movable observation cover is a hydraulic guide rod.
[0011] The overflow space has a water overflow port at the bottom, which is called an overflow outlet, and the filter body has a venting component at the bottom.
[0012] The venting component is a venting channel, and a venting port is provided on one side of the venting channel.
[0013] Compared to existing technologies, the combination of the drive threaded rod and the hand-held drive wheel enables stepless adjustment of the overflow plate height, avoiding the decrease in filtration efficiency caused by water level fluctuations in traditional fixed overflow devices. The overflow height can be reduced to extend the filtration time and improve the solid-liquid separation effect. The linkage design of the movable observation cover and the hydraulic guide rod ensures operational safety and allows for regular observation and monitoring of the filtration process through the movable observation cover, facilitating the timely detection of problems such as filter cloth blockage and abnormal drum vibration. A venting channel with a vent port is set at the bottom of the drum filter, which allows for effective venting of the drum filter's internal components. The dual protection mechanism of the overflow port and the vent port effectively prevents liquid leakage during filtration operations. Attached Figure Description
