[0002] In industrial and municipal circulating water treatment processes, scaling problems caused by excessively high water hardness (such as calcium and magnesium ions) have long plagued technicians in related fields. Traditional descaling methods mainly include chemical softening, ion exchange, and membrane separation. In traditional electro-adsorption descaling, scale is not easily removed after the flat plate electrode comes into contact with the water flow. The scale also makes it difficult for ions in the circulating water to react with the electrode, thus affecting the descaling efficiency. Utility Model Content

The anode plate structure includes an anode plate body, and the anode plate body and the cathode plate body are arranged alternately in sequence along a first direction.

Detailed Implementation
[0017] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.
[0018] In the following description, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first," "second," etc., may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0019] Furthermore, in this application, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" may be defined relative to the orientation of the components shown in the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these directional terms can be relative concepts, used for relative description and clarification, and may change accordingly depending on the orientation of the components in the accompanying drawings.
[0020] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the term "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, the term "coupled" can refer to an electrical connection that enables signal transmission.
[0021] As used herein, “about,” “approximately,” or “approximately” includes the stated value and the average value within an acceptable range of deviation from the given value, wherein the acceptable range of deviation is determined by a person skilled in the art taking into account the measurement under discussion and the error associated with the measurement of the given quantity (i.e., the limitations of the measurement system).
[0022] This application provides an electrochemical adsorption vibration module with a cathode plate structure, such as Figure 1-2As shown, the device includes several cathode plates 1, several anode plates 2, a first mounting member 4 for mounting the cathode plates 1, and a second mounting member 5 for mounting the anode plates 2. The first mounting member 4 and the second mounting member 5 are fixedly connected to external equipment via a mounting base 6. The cathode plates 1 are fixed below the first mounting member 4, and the anode plates 2 are fixed below the second mounting member. When circulating water needs to be treated, the cathode plates 1 and anode plates 2 are inserted into the circulating water to be treated, and they cooperate to form an electric field when energized. Subsequently, under the action of the electric field, cations in the circulating water (such as calcium ions, magnesium ions, etc.) are adsorbed on the cathode plates 1 and form solid scale (whose composition is generally calcium carbonate, etc.). At the same time, anions (such as carbonate ions, sulfate ions, etc.) react with the anode plates, thereby achieving the removal of anions from the circulating water.
[0023] It is easy to understand that, in order to achieve the aforementioned descaling reaction, the cathode plate 1 can be made of metal materials such as stainless steel and carbon steel, and the anode plate 2 is usually made of materials such as special mixed metal oxide (MMO); the first mounting part 4 and the second mounting part 5 can both be set as U-shaped steel.
[0024] To improve adsorption efficiency, both cathode plate 1 and anode plate 2 are plate-shaped, and they are arranged alternately along a direction perpendicular to the flow direction of circulating water (i.e., the first direction), with the sides of cathode plate 1 facing the flow direction of circulating water (i.e., the second direction). This increases the contact area between the circulating water and the cathode plate 1 and anode as the circulating water passes through them, thus increasing the reaction area and allowing more ions to be adsorbed (due to the increased number of ions under the influence of the electric field), thereby improving the adsorption and descaling efficiency. Of course, the cathode and anode can also be configured in mesh, rod, block, spherical, chain, or rope shapes, etc., depending on actual needs; no specific limitations are imposed here. Furthermore, the material and structural design of the electro-adsorption module must consider corrosion resistance and conductivity to ensure long-term stable operation. Optimizing the electric field strength and electrode spacing (<30mm) further enhances the adsorption effect and reduces energy consumption. In practical applications, the electrode shape and spacing can be flexibly adjusted according to water quality characteristics and treatment requirements to achieve the best descaling effect.
[0025] To ensure that the scale can be effectively removed from the electrode, such as Figure 2-4As shown, a vibrating element 3 can be bolted to the top of the first mounting component 4. In this embodiment, the vibrating element 3 is a vibration motor. The base of the vibration motor is fixed to the fixed part of the electrode (usually the first cathode plate 101 and the second cathode plate 102). An acceleration sensor is installed on the vibration motor for closed-loop amplitude adjustment to avoid excessive vibration leading to electrode fatigue. When it is necessary to separate the scale from the electrode, the vibration motor is started to drive the electrode to vibrate. When the vibration frequency reaches a certain value, the scale is shaken off. To improve separation efficiency, such as... Figure 4-5 As shown, the electrode is provided with several insulating areas 11. The insulating areas 11 and non-insulating areas 12 are alternately distributed along the direction of scale detachment or along the direction of circulating water flow. Therefore, when the electrode vibrates, the scale in the insulating area 11 will detach from the electrode first, and at the same time, it can drive the scale in the non-insulating area 12 to detach together and fall into the external scale tank, which improves the efficiency of the scale falling into the external scale tank as a whole. In order to discretize the nucleation points of the scale and further reduce the adhesion, the insulating area 11 is made of PTFE insulating coating with a coating thickness ≥50μm to ensure long-term insulation reliability. The bottom of the external scale tank can be laid with polytetrafluoroethylene board with a thickness ≥2mm to ensure long-term insulation stability and reliability.
[0026] Among them, such as Figure 2-5 As shown, the insulating region 11 may be composed of a number of insulating through holes, which are arranged sequentially along the first direction and / or the second direction, or randomly arranged on the cathode plate; it may also be composed of a number of grid lines to divide the non-insulating region into a number of grids; or it may be composed of a number of insulating strips, which are parallel to each other; no limitation is made here.
[0027] The first mounting component 4 and the second mounting component 5 are parallel to the arrangement direction of the cathode plate 1 and the anode. When there are multiple sets of cathode plate 1 and anode plate 2, there are also multiple sets of first mounting components 4 and second mounting components 5, which are arranged sequentially along the direction of circulating water flow. The first mounting component 4 is provided with a first wiring space 41 for wiring, and the first wiring space 41 can be used to place cables for powering the cathode plate 1 and the vibrating component 3. The second mounting component 5 can also have a second wiring space 51, which is used to place cables for powering the anode plate 2. It should be noted that when the first mounting component 4 vibrates, it will affect the surrounding environment. To reduce this impact, a buffer component 7 can be provided on the mounting base 6. The buffer component 7 is located between the mounting base 6 and the first mounting component 4 and / or the second mounting component 5. The buffer component 7 can be configured as a device or equipment with elastic buffering capacity, such as a non-metallic, non-rigid insulator or a buffer spring array.
[0028] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
