Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of construction technology, and more specifically, to a device for uniformly filling catalysts in high-capacity tanks. Background Technology

[0002] In chemical production, nickel-aluminum catalysts are widely used in processes such as hydrogenation reactions. The quality and uniformity of their loading directly affect reaction efficiency and catalyst life. However, when loading high-capacity tanks, the existing technology of direct dumping has significant drawbacks: First, when the catalyst falls from the top of the tank, the high-height particles collide with the tank body, causing breakage, and the accumulation of fine powder in the catalyst easily forms channels, wasting catalyst and affecting reaction efficiency; second, traditional loading results in "central accumulation and sparse sidewalls," with particle stratification (small particles in the center and large particles on the edges), leading to deviations in bed density uniformity and increasing reaction uncertainty; third, manual entry into the tank is required to level the catalyst surface, which is inefficient and poses safety hazards such as confined space operations and dust contamination.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-3 As shown, the main body of this embodiment is a high-tank catalyst uniform filling device, including a mounting frame 1 set at the feed inlet position at the top of the high tank. A feed funnel 2 is set on the mounting frame 1. A spiral feeding mechanism is detachably connected to the bottom of the feed funnel 2 through a flange. The spiral feeding mechanism extends into the inner cavity of the high tank. A material blocking and diffusion mechanism is provided below the discharge port of the spiral feeding mechanism. An air curtain mechanism is provided at the bottom of the material blocking and diffusion mechanism.

[0026] Furthermore, the spiral feeding mechanism includes a vertically arranged spiral feeding pipe 3 that is detachably connected to the bottom of the feeding funnel 2. The spiral feeding pipe 3 is composed of several segmented pipe bodies 4 that are detachably spliced ​​together. Each segmented pipe body 4 has an installation rod 5 at its inner axial position. A spiral plate 6 is sleeved on the outer side of the installation rod 5. The outer edge of the spiral plate 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the segmented pipe body 4.

[0027] Furthermore, a first flange 7 and a second flange 8 are fixedly sleeved on the upper and lower ends of the segmented pipe body 4, respectively, and adjacent first flanges 7 and second flanges 8 are connected by bolts 9.

[0028] Furthermore, the surfaces of the spiral plates 6 inside the adjacent segmented pipe bodies 4 are in contact; the outer edges of the first flange 7 and the second flange 8 are respectively provided with positioning blocks 10 corresponding in the vertical direction.

[0029] Furthermore, the material blocking and diffusion mechanism includes a relief rod 11 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the mounting rod 5 inside the lowest segmented tube 4, and a material distribution plate 12 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the relief rod 11, the top surface of the material distribution plate 12 being arc-shaped.

[0030] Furthermore, the air curtain mechanism includes an air pipe 13 vertically disposed at the bottom of the distribution plate 12. The bottom end of the air pipe 13 is closed, and multiple exhaust nozzles 14 are arranged around the side wall of the air pipe 13 in the vertical direction. The air pipe 13 is connected to an air pump station through a pipeline 15 extending to the outside of the high tank.

[0031] Furthermore, the top of the material distribution plate 12 is provided with a protective sleeve 16, and the pipe 15 is sleeved inside the protective sleeve 16 and its bottom end extends out from the bottom of the material distribution plate 12 and is connected to the air pipe 13.

[0032] Furthermore, the mounting frame 1 includes several columns 17 surrounding the feed inlet at the top of the high tank. The top of each column 17 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 18. The mounting plate 18 is provided with a mounting through hole 19, and the inclined surface of the feed funnel 2 engages with the inner side of the mounting through hole 19.

[0033] In use, the air pump station is first started, and the air nozzle 14 of the air pipe 13 sprays air to form a stable air curtain; the catalyst is added at a constant speed from the feed funnel 2, and the material first falls into the spiral feed pipe 3, and slides down the spiral plate 6 in the segmented pipe body 4. Due to the guiding effect of the spiral plate 6, the catalyst descends slowly in a spiral trajectory, and the collision between particles is significantly reduced.

[0034] It is worth mentioning that during installation, the positioning blocks 10 on the first flange 7 and the second flange 8 are aligned vertically to ensure that the surfaces of adjacent spiral plates 6 are in contact, ensuring continuous material feeding and avoiding local impact breakage caused by material jamming.

[0035] When the catalyst that has slid down to the bottom contacts the arc-shaped distribution plate 12, it is pushed outwards by the arc surface, initially breaking the "center accumulation" trend; nitrogen gas is injected from the multiple exhaust nozzles 14 on the side wall of the gas pipe 13, forming a vertical gas curtain. The diffused catalyst particles then enter the gas curtain area. Small particles are lifted by the airflow and move towards the side wall of the tank, while large particles fall evenly to the center and edges due to inertia and buffered by the gas curtain, achieving density balance throughout the entire tank.

[0036] When the catalyst is filled to the corresponding position from the distribution plate 12, feeding is paused. The crane connects the remaining section of the pipe body 4 below the section to be disassembled 4 with the lifting device, loosens the bolts 9 between the corresponding first flange 7 and second flange 8, removes the uppermost section of the pipe body, moves the remaining section of the pipe body 4 upward with the crane, and connects the first flange 7 at the top of the remaining section of the pipe body 4 to the flange at the bottom of the feed funnel 2, and then continues feeding; repeat this operation until the catalyst fills the tank. No manual loading is required throughout the process, and finally, a filling with low breakage rate and high uniformity is completed.

[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
