Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ethanol production technology, specifically to a filter device for ethanol production that is easy to replace. Background Technology

[0002] Ethanol is a flammable, volatile, colorless, and transparent liquid at room temperature and pressure. Its vapor can form an explosive mixture with air. It is miscible with water in any proportion and with chloroform, ether, methanol, acetone, and most other organic solvents. In the production and processing of ethanol, if it is used directly without filtration, some impurities or residues in the ethanol will enter the subsequent processing equipment and are not easy to clean. Therefore, ethanol filtration devices are required.

[0003] In existing ethanol filtration processes, such as purification and impurity removal, solid particles in the liquid form a filter cake on the filter plate surface. If the filter plate is not vibrated, the filter cake will gradually thicken, clogging the pores and significantly increasing the resistance of the liquid passing through the filter plate, resulting in a slower filtration speed or even complete stagnation. In contrast, vibrating filter plates can loosen, detach, or distribute the filter cake more evenly through high-frequency vibration, reducing the impact of filter cake accumulation on the flow rate and maintaining stable filtration efficiency. Therefore, a filtration device for ethanol production that is easy to replace is proposed. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a new technical solution: a filter device for ethanol production that is easy to replace, including a filter box 1, and a feed hopper 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the filter box 1. The filter box 1 is equipped with a filter mechanism, which includes a discharge valve 3, a C-shaped plate 4, a motor 5, a worm 6, a worm wheel 7, a transmission roller 8, a cam 9, a first spring 10, a T-shaped plate 11, a pulley 12, a spring groove 13, a second spring 14, a fixing block 15, a filter plate 16, a slot 17, and a card slot 18.

[0022] Furthermore, the discharge valve 3 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the filter box 1, and the C-shaped plate 4 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the top plate of the filter box 1.

[0023] Furthermore, the motor 5 is fixedly installed in the inner wall of the C-shaped plate 4, and the worm gear 6 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 5.

[0024] Furthermore, the worm gear 7 is meshed with the outer surface of the worm 6, and the transmission roller 8 is fixedly sleeved in the inner wall of the worm gear 7. The transmission roller 8 is rotatably sleeved in the inner wall of the C-shaped plate 4.

[0025] Furthermore, the two cams 9 are fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the transmission roller 8.

[0026] Furthermore, four first springs 10 are fixedly installed in the inner wall of the two vertical plates of the C-shaped plate 4, and the horizontal plates of the two T-shaped plates 11 are respectively fixedly installed on the upper ends of the four first springs 10. The vertical plates of the two T-shaped plates 11 slide through the lower surface of the two vertical plates of the C-shaped plate 4.

[0027] Furthermore, two pulleys 12 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the two T-shaped plates 11, and the two pulleys 12 are in contact with the two cams 9 respectively.

[0028] Furthermore, four spring grooves 13 are respectively opened on the opposite sides of the vertical plates of the two T-shaped plates 11, and four second springs 14 are respectively fixedly installed in the inner walls of the four spring grooves 13.

[0029] Furthermore, the four fixing blocks 15 are respectively fixedly installed on the opposite ends of the four second springs 14, and the lower surfaces of the four fixing blocks 15 are all set at an angle.

[0030] Furthermore, the filter plate 16 is disposed on the lower surface of the C-shaped plate 4, and two slots 17 are formed on the upper surface of the filter plate 16; Among them, four card slots 18 are respectively opened in the inner wall of two slots 17; This easily replaceable ethanol production filter device starts with motor 5, which drives worm 6 to rotate. Worm 6 meshes with and drives worm wheel 7 to rotate. Worm wheel 7 drives transmission roller 8 to rotate synchronously within the horizontal plate of C-shaped plate 4. The two cams 9 on transmission roller 8 rotate with it. When the protruding part of cam 9 contacts pulley 12 on T-shaped plate 11, it pushes T-shaped plate 11 downward, compressing the first spring 10. At this time, the first spring 10 is in a stored state. When the protruding part of cam 9 leaves pulley 12, the first spring 10 releases its elastic force, driving T-shaped plate 11 to return to its original position. Plate 11 drives filter plate 16 to vibrate up and down synchronously through the engagement of fixing block 15 and slot 18, so that the ethanol entering the filter box 1 is fully filtered on filter plate 16, impurities are intercepted, and the filtered ethanol is discharged through discharge valve 3. The slot 17 of filter plate 16 is aligned with the vertical plate of T-shaped plate 11 and inserted. The inner wall of slot 17 presses the inclined surface of fixing block 15 to shrink it. When the slot 18 in slot 17 is aligned with fixing block 15, the second spring 14 releases its elastic force and pushes fixing block 15 into slot 18, completing the fixing of filter plate 16. At this time, the device can be restarted for filtration. This easily replaceable ethanol production filter device uses a motor 5 to drive a worm gear 6, a worm wheel 7, and a transmission roller 8 to rotate. This causes a cam 9 to periodically push a T-shaped plate 11 to compress a first spring 10 and then reset. The filter plate 16 vibrates up and down through the engagement of a fixing block 15 and a slot 18, causing the ethanol to continuously slosh around on the filter plate 16. This prevents impurities from accumulating and clogging the filter media, extending the filtration time per cycle. It also enhances the uniformity of liquid-filter media contact, significantly improving the filtration effect. In this easily replaceable ethanol production filter device, the filter plate 16 is inserted into the T-shaped plate 11 through a slot 17. The slot 17 compresses the inclined surface of the fixing block 15, causing it to contract. When the slot 18 aligns with the fixing block 15, a second spring 14 pushes and engages to secure the filter plate. The filter plate can be disassembled and assembled without tools, reducing downtime for maintenance. This device is particularly suitable for the frequent filter media replacement needs in ethanol production, reducing manual operation intensity and equipment downtime losses.

[0031] Structural Description: Filter box 1: Filter box 1 is the main frame of the entire device, providing installation and working space for all internal filtration mechanisms. It supports components such as feed hopper 2 and C-shaped plate 4, forming a closed filtration environment to ensure that the ethanol raw material completes the filtration process inside the box. At the same time, it supports the stable operation of each component and is the basic carrier of the device structure. Feed hopper 2: The feed hopper 2 is fixed on the upper surface of the filter box 1 and is mainly used for the introduction of raw materials for ethanol production. Its open design makes it easy to pour in the raw materials. Through its own structure, the raw materials are guided to enter the filtration area inside the filter box 1 accurately, so that the raw materials can flow smoothly to the filter plate 16 for filtration treatment, playing the role of material conveying and guiding. Discharge valve 3: The discharge valve 3 is installed on the lower surface of the filter box 1 and is the discharge channel for the filtered material. After filtration, the discharge valve 3 can be opened to discharge the filtered ethanol. When closed, it can control the residence time of the material in the box to facilitate thorough filtration. At the same time, it can be closed when replacing the filter plate 16 to prevent material leakage. C-shaped plate 4: C-shaped plate 4 is fixed on the lower surface of the top plate of filter box 1 and serves as the mounting carrier for multiple components. It provides support for motor 5, transmission roller 8, etc. The structural design of its horizontal and vertical plates ensures the stable installation of motor 5 and transmission roller 8, and also provides space for the sliding of T-shaped plate 11 and the installation of the first spring 10. It is a key support structure for power transmission and filter plate fixing. Motor 5: Motor 5 is fixed to the inner wall of the C-shaped plate 4 and is the power source of the device. When motor 5 is working, it outputs power to drive worm 6 to rotate. By driving worm 6, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy, which provides power for the movement of subsequent components such as worm wheel 7 and transmission roller 8, ensuring the normal operation of the power mechanism during the filtration process. Worm 6: Worm 6 is fixed at the output end of motor 5 and receives the power output of motor 5. It transmits the rotational motion of motor 5 to worm wheel 7 through meshing connection, realizing the direction and transmission of power. It is a key transmission component connecting motor 5 and subsequent transmission components, ensuring that power is efficiently transmitted to transmission roller 8. Worm Gear 7: The worm gear 7 meshes on the outer surface of the worm 6 and forms a worm gear transmission structure with the worm 6. It rotates under the drive of the worm 6. Since the transmission roller 8 is fixedly sleeved on its inner wall, it can transmit the rotational motion to the transmission roller 8, realize the transmission of power from the worm 6 to the transmission roller 8, and change the direction of power transmission. Transmission roller 8: The transmission roller 8 is fixedly sleeved on the inner wall of the worm wheel 7 and rotates on the inner wall of the C-shaped plate 4. It rotates under the drive of the worm wheel 7, and the two cams 9 on its outer surface rotate synchronously with it. At the same time, it serves as the mounting carrier for the cams 9, converting the rotational motion of the worm wheel 7 into the rotation of the cams 9. It is a key component for transmitting power to the cams 9. Cam 9: Two cams 9 are fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the transmission roller 8 and rotate synchronously with the transmission roller 8. When rotating, the cam 9 contacts the pulley 12 and pushes the pulley 12 up and down through the change of its own contour, thereby driving the T-shaped plate 11 to move up and down. The eccentric structure of the cam is used to realize the reciprocating lifting and lowering of the T-shaped plate 11, providing power for the vibration of the filter plate 16. First spring 10: Four first springs 10 are fixed to the inner wall of the vertical plate of C-shaped plate 4, and the upper end is connected to the horizontal plate of T-shaped plate 11. When cam 9 pushes T-shaped plate 11 down, the first spring 10 is compressed. When cam 9 rotates to the non-protruding position, the first spring 10 pushes T-shaped plate 11 to reset. The reciprocating motion of T-shaped plate 11 is realized through elastic deformation, ensuring the continuous operation of the vibration mechanism. T-shaped plate 11: The horizontal plate of the two T-shaped plates 11 is connected to the first spring 10, and the vertical plate slides through the vertical plate of the C-shaped plate 4. The horizontal plate bears the elastic force of the first spring 10 and the thrust of the pulley 12, while the vertical plate drives the fixed block 15 to move. Under the action of the cam 9 and the first spring 10, it moves up and down, which not only transmits vibration to the filter plate 16, but also realizes the fixing and loosening of the filter plate 16 through the fixed block 15. Pulley 12: Two pulleys 12 are mounted on the upper surface of the T-shaped plate 11 and contact the cam 9. They convert the sliding friction of the cam 9 into rolling friction, reduce the wear between the cam 9 and the T-shaped plate 11, and make the rotation of the cam 9 more smoothly converted into the up and down movement of the T-shaped plate 11, improve the power transmission efficiency, and extend the service life of the components. Spring grooves 13: Four spring grooves 13 are opened on the opposite side of the vertical plate of the T-shaped plate 11 to provide installation space for the second spring 14 and the fixing block 15. The inner wall of the groove fixes the second spring 14, restricts the extension and contraction direction of the second spring 14, ensures that the second spring 14 deforms stably along the groove when under force, and guides the movement of the fixing block 15 to ensure that the fixing block 15 is accurately engaged in the slot 18. Second spring 14: Four second springs 14 are fixed to the inner wall of spring groove 13 and connected to fixing block 15. When filter plate 16 is inserted into slot 17, the inclined surface of fixing block 15 is compressed by force to compress the second spring 14. After it is in place, the elastic force of the second spring 14 pushes the fixing block 15 into slot 18 to fix the filter plate 16. When replacing, external force causes the fixing block 15 to compress the second spring 14 and disengage from slot 18 for easy disassembly. Fixing blocks 15: Four fixing blocks 15 are installed on opposite ends of the second spring 14, with their lower surfaces being inclined. When the filter plate 16 is installed, the inclined surfaces are subjected to force, causing the fixing blocks 15 to retract into the spring grooves 13. After they are in place, they are engaged in the slots 18 under the action of the second spring 14, fixing the filter plate 16 below the T-shaped plate 11. Its inclined surface design facilitates the insertion of the filter plate 16 and ensures that the filter plate 16 is stable and does not fall off after being fixed. Filter plate 16: Located on the lower surface of C-shaped plate 4, filter plate 16 is the core component of the filtration system. After entering from the feed hopper 2, the raw material flows to the surface of filter plate 16. Filter plate 16 traps impurities in the raw material through its own pores, thus achieving the filtration and purification of the ethanol raw material. At the same time, it is connected to T-shaped plate 11 through slot 17, which improves the filtration efficiency under vibration. Slots 17: Two slots 17 are formed on the upper surface of the filter plate 16 for connection with the vertical plate of the T-shaped plate 11. After the vertical plate of the T-shaped plate 11 is inserted into the slots 17, the filter plate 16 is precisely aligned with the T-shaped plate 11, ensuring that the fixing block 15 can be accurately engaged in the slot 18, thereby achieving the positioning and installation of the filter plate 16 and ensuring that the filter plate 16 does not shift during vibration. Slots 18: Four slots 18 are formed on the inner wall of the slot 17, which cooperate with the fixing block 15 to fix the filter plate 16. When the vertical plate of the T-shaped plate 11 is inserted into the slot 17, the fixing block 15 is engaged in the slot 18 under the action of the second spring 14, which firmly fixes the filter plate 16 on the T-shaped plate 11 and prevents the filter plate 16 from falling off during vibration filtration. When disassembling, the fixing block 15 can be disengaged from the slot 18 and the filter plate 16 can be removed.
