Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of developer processing technology, and in particular to a developer filtration device for a coating developer. Background Technology

[0002] Photographic developer is a chemical agent used in developing photographic prints. Its main components include sulfuric acid, nitric acid, benzene, methanol, silver halides, boric acid, and hydroquinone. It is toxic and should not come into direct contact with skin as it will cause severe corrosion.

[0003] A developing solution is a solution formulated with developing agents and other chemicals to develop exposed photosensitive materials. The main developing agent is the developing agent, and it also contains accelerators, protectants, inhibitors, and water. Because the types and quantities of developing agents, as well as the amounts and types of other chemicals, vary, their effects can differ, influencing image density, contrast, tonal range, graininess, and so on.

[0004] Chinese patent document CN218890254U discloses a developer filtration device, including a filter tank. A motor is mounted on the top of the filter tank, and a connecting rod extends through the output end of the motor into the filter tank. A centrifuge frame is mounted at the bottom of the connecting rod. A non-woven filter cloth is wrapped around the outer surface of the centrifuge frame. Both sides of the filter tank have flow inlets, and storage tanks are connected to the outer sides of each flow inlet via pipes. One side of the filter tank has an open structure, and a sedimentation chamber is integrally formed at the bottom of the filter tank. A maintenance plate is mounted on the open structure of one side of the filter tank via a hinge. This developer filtration device uses a motor to drive the centrifuge frame to rotate at high speed, using centrifugal force to throw the developer outwards. The non-woven filter cloth covering the centrifuge frame filters the thrown-out developer, effectively filtering and retaining impurities within the developer, while simultaneously improving filtration speed and efficiency.

[0005] While the aforementioned patent documents can effectively improve the speed and efficiency of filtration during implementation, they do not allow for convenient installation and replacement of the filter cloth. As a result, after prolonged use, a significant amount of time and effort is required to clean the residue remaining on the surface of the filter cloth, which affects the filtration efficiency of the developing solution.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 1As shown, a developer filtration device for a coating developer includes a base 1. A support component 2 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the base 1, which can store the developer while supporting the connecting mechanism 3 and the filtering mechanism 4. The connecting mechanism 3 is movably connected to the upper middle part of the support component 2, which can connect and limit the filtering mechanism 4. The filtering mechanism 4 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the connecting mechanism 3, which can filter the developer. A feeding mechanism 5 is fixedly connected to the upper right side of the support component 2, which can facilitate the feeding of the developer into the support component 2. A servo motor 6 is fixedly installed at the middle position of the upper outer part of the support component 2. A stirring mechanism 7 is fixedly connected to the lower output end of the servo motor 6, which can stir the developer. A collecting component 8 is fixedly connected to the lower inside of the support component 2, which can facilitate the collection of the developer. A discharge pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the lower outer part of the support component 2, and a stop plug 10 is movably connected to the lower part of the discharge pipe 9.

[0025] To facilitate the dispensing of developer into the carrier assembly 2, see [reference needed]. Figure 2 The feeding mechanism 5 includes a feeding pipe 51, and a sealing cover 52 is movably connected to the upper end of the outer surface of the feeding pipe 51, which can achieve the function of sealing the upper open end of the feeding pipe 51.

[0026] To achieve the goal of simultaneously storing the developer and supporting the connecting mechanism 3 and the filtering mechanism 4, see [reference needed]. Figure 2 The bearing component 2 includes a tank 21, and a bearing sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the middle of the tank 21, which can realize the limiting function of supporting the connecting mechanism 3 and the filtering mechanism 4. A sealing ring 23 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the middle of the upper part of the outer surface of the bearing sleeve 22, which can realize the function of clamping the connecting ring 31 to the upper part of the bearing sleeve 22.

[0027] To achieve the purpose of connecting and limiting the filter mechanism 4, please refer to... Figure 3 The connecting mechanism 3 includes a connecting ring 31. A limiting ring 32 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper part of the outer surface of the connecting ring 31, which can limit the position of the connecting ring 31. A handle 33 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer surface of the limiting ring 32 symmetrically. The sidewall of the outer surface of the connecting ring 31 is slidably connected to the side of the two sealing rings 23 that are close to each other.

[0028] To achieve the purpose of filtering the developer, see [link / reference]. Figure 3 The filter mechanism 4 includes an annular frame 41, on which a plurality of nonwoven filter cloths 42 are fixedly mounted in an annular array on the inner surface of the annular frame 41, and the upper end of the outer surface of the annular frame 41 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the outer surface of the connecting ring 31.

[0029] When it is necessary to clean the impurities attached to the surface of several non-woven filter cloths 42, hold the two handles 33 and pull the limiting ring 32 upward, so that the connecting ring 31 drives the annular frame 41 to slide upward along the inner surface of the two sealing rings 23 until the annular frame 41 is removed from the inner cavity of the bearing housing 22.

[0030] To achieve the purpose of stirring the developer, see [link / reference]. Figure 4 The stirring mechanism 7 includes a connecting column 71, and several stirring plates 72 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting column 71 at intervals. The upper end of the connecting column 71 is fixedly connected to the lower output end of the servo motor 6.

[0031] Driven by the servo motor 6, the centrifugal force generated by the stirring plates 72 when stirring the developer solution can cause the particulate impurities contained in the developer solution to be thrown outward, so that the particulate impurities contained in the developer solution will adhere to the inner surface of the non-woven filter cloth 42.

[0032] To facilitate the aggregation of the developer, please refer to... Figure 4 The material collection assembly 8 includes a material collection seat 81. A concave groove 82 is provided on the upper part of the outer surface of the material collection seat 81, which can facilitate the flow of the filtered developer along the inner wall of the concave groove 82 into the inner cavity of the discharge pipe 9 and discharge it to the outside. The lower end of the outer surface of the material collection seat 81 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the tank 21.

[0033] It should be noted that the servo motor 6 in this utility model is a Siemens 1FT7. The specific installation method, circuit connection method and control method of the servo motor 6 are all conventional designs, and this utility model will not describe them in detail.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After the developing solution is added to the inner cavity of the feed pipe 51, the developing solution will enter the inner cavity of the base 1. At this time, the drive servo motor 6 drives the connecting column 71 and several sets of stirring plates 72 to rotate. This causes the developing solution in the inner cavity of the base 1 and the bearing sleeve 22 to start rotating. Under the action of centrifugal force, the impurities in the developing solution are thrown outward, and the impurities in the developing solution can be adsorbed on the inner surface of several non-woven filter cloths 42. When it is necessary to clean and replace several non-woven filter cloths 42, the limit ring 32 is pulled upward by holding the two handles 33. This allows the ring frame 41 to be pulled upward from the outside of the inner cavity of the bearing sleeve 22 through the connection of the connecting ring 31. This allows the impurities adsorbed on the inner surface of the non-woven filter cloth 42 to be cleaned. After the developing solution is filtered, the stop plug 10 is pulled outward, allowing the developing solution to gather along the inner wall of the concave groove 82 and be discharged outward in a unified manner.

[0035] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
