Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of filtration and separation devices, specifically a sieving device for detecting heavy metal content in soil. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, laboratory-grade grinding equipment mainly includes ball mills, cryogenic grinders, and blade shear grinders. Ball mills break soil particles through high-energy collisions, offering high precision but consuming a lot of energy. Cryogenic grinders use liquid nitrogen to treat embrittled organic matter at low temperatures, which can prevent the loss of volatile substances, but the grinding cost is relatively high. Blade shear grinders are suitable for fibrous soils, but they easily generate heat, affecting sample characteristics.
[0003] There are also emerging technology directions, such as microwave-assisted crushing, ultrasonic cavitation crushing, and robotic automated grinding, which have a high degree of automation, but the equipment cost is high, the grinding efficiency is low, and they are not suitable for grinding and pretreatment of large numbers of samples (such as soil surveys).
[0004] For most small and medium-sized laboratories, a combination of agate ball milling and manual sieving is used for grinding. Agate ball mills are highly efficient, grinding 4-8 samples at a time. However, after grinding the soil, it needs to be passed through a 100-mesh sieve. Due to the small mesh size, larger soil particles clog the filter cup, resulting in poor sieving and becoming a bottleneck in soil sample pretreatment. Furthermore, the sieving process generates significant dust, seriously affecting the health of operators. Therefore, a novel soil sieving device is proposed to address these issues. This device integrates sieving and collection, and operates in a fully enclosed manner, eliminating dust and pollution and protecting the health of operators. Utility Model Content
