AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing thickener's flow stabilizer design causes the wastewater in the tank to be disturbed when the raw water is sprayed out at high speed, reducing the flocculation effect and potentially stirring up the sludge at the bottom of the tank.

Method used

Design a flocculation flow stabilizer cylinder including an inlet pipe, a throat pipe, and a conical hopper. The water flows through the throat pipe and the conical hopper in sequence before entering the flocculation flow stabilizer cylinder, forming multiple reaction zones to reduce the water flow velocity and prevent jetting.

Benefits of technology

It effectively enhances the flocculation effect of the agent, reduces the impact on sludge settling in the pool, and improves flocculation stability.

Abstract

This utility model discloses a thickener for accelerating flocculation and stabilizing flow. It includes a thickener with a central shaft extending vertically through its center. It also includes an inlet pipe, a throat pipe, and a conical hopper. The inlet pipe extends horizontally and connects to the upper end of the throat pipe, which is located outside the central shaft. The throat pipe extends vertically into and connects to the conical hopper, which has an open top end that connects to the upper end of the thickener. Water enters through the inlet pipe and sequentially flows into the throat pipe, conical hopper, and thickener. The throat pipe serves as the first reaction zone, and the conical hopper as the second reaction zone. This design effectively reduces the wastewater inflow rate, prevents jetting, improves the flocculation effect of the chemicals, and minimizes the impact on sludge settling within the tank.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a flow stabilizing cylinder for accelerating flocculation in a thickening tank. Background Technology

[0002] The thickener's flow stabilizer is typically installed under the working bridge and connected to the inlet pipe. Raw water enters the flow stabilizer through the inlet pipe and then flows into the thickening tank. Currently, the most common type of thickener flow stabilizer on the market is the straight-cylinder type. After the raw water enters the flow stabilizer, the outlet distributes water tangentially along the inner wall of the flow stabilizer. When the pressurized raw water is sprayed out at high speed from the inlet pipe, it will disturb the wastewater in the tank, thereby reducing the flocculation effect in the tank and even washing up the sludge settled at the bottom of the tank. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a thickening tank for accelerating flocculation and stabilizing flow.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is: a thickening tank for accelerating flocculation and stabilizing flow, which includes a thickening tank with a central shaft of a thickener extending vertically through the middle of the thickening tank. It also includes an inlet pipe, a throat pipe and a conical hopper. The inlet pipe extends horizontally and is connected to the upper end of the throat pipe. The throat pipe is located outside the central shaft of the thickener. The throat pipe extends vertically into the conical hopper and is connected to the conical hopper. The upper end of the conical hopper is open and is connected to the upper end of the thickening tank.

[0005] Furthermore, the right end of the inlet pipe is connected to the upper end of the throat pipe, and the lower end of the throat pipe is connected to the lower end of the conical hopper.

[0006] The beneficial effects of using the thickening tank accelerated flocculation and flow stabilizing cylinder provided by this utility model are as follows: after water enters from the inlet pipe, it enters the throat pipe, the conical hopper and the flocculation and flow stabilizing cylinder in sequence. The throat pipe serves as the first reaction zone and the conical hopper serves as the second reaction zone. This design can effectively reduce the speed of sewage feed, prevent jetting, improve the flocculation effect of the agent, and reduce the impact on sludge settling in the tank. Attached Figure Description

[0007] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of this utility model.

[0008] In the diagram: 1—flocculation stabilizer cylinder, 2—central shaft of the thickener, 3—inlet pipe, 4—throat pipe, 5—conical hopper. Detailed Implementation

[0009] To provide a more intuitive and complete understanding of the technical solution of this utility model, the following non-limiting features are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0010] like Figure 1As shown in the diagram, the arrows indicate the direction of water flow. A thickener accelerating flocculation and stabilizing cylinder includes a flocculation stabilizing cylinder 1. A central shaft 2 of a thickener extends vertically through the center of the flocculation stabilizing cylinder 1. The thickener also includes an inlet pipe 3, a throat pipe 4, and a conical hopper 5. The inlet pipe 3 extends horizontally and connects to the upper end of the throat pipe 4, which is located outside the central shaft 2. The throat pipe 4 extends vertically into and connects to the conical hopper 5. The upper end of the conical hopper 5 is open and connects to the upper end of the flocculation stabilizing cylinder 1. The right end of the inlet pipe 3 connects to the upper end of the throat pipe 4, and the lower end of the throat pipe 4 connects to the lower end of the conical hopper 5. When the water in the conical hopper 5 is full, it overflows into the flocculation stabilizing cylinder 1 to prevent jetting.

[0011] The present invention provides a thickening tank with accelerated flocculation and flow stabilization cylinder. After water enters from the inlet pipe 3, it sequentially enters the throat pipe 4, the conical hopper 5, and the flocculation and flow stabilization cylinder 1. The throat pipe 4 serves as the first reaction zone, and the conical hopper 5 serves as the second reaction zone. This design can effectively reduce the speed of sewage feed, prevent jetting, improve the flocculation effect of the agent, and reduce the impact on sludge settling in the tank.

[0012] Of course, the above are only preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications and equivalent structural changes made based on the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings should also be included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
