Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of medium-frequency induction heating equipment, and more specifically, it relates to a three-stage separation mechanism for medium-frequency furnaces. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, medium-frequency furnaces, with their advantages of "high-frequency induction heating, rapid heating rate (up to 100℃ / min), and controllable temperature," have become core equipment in metal smelting and recycling. However, existing medium-frequency furnaces have significant technical shortcomings in the field of multi-metal mixture sorting, making it difficult to meet the industrial demands for "efficient sorting, resource closed-loop management, and environmental compliance." Existing medium-frequency furnaces mostly adopt a single reaction chamber design, requiring multi-metal mixtures to be smelted in one go, which has the following problems: poor sorting accuracy: different metals have significantly different melting points, such as aluminum melting point 660℃, copper melting point 1083℃, and iron melting point 1538℃. Single-chamber heating can only melt high-melting-point metals, while low-melting-point metals are prone to excessive oxidation or forming alloys with high-melting-point metals, which makes subsequent separation much more difficult. During the smelting process, the waste residue is mixed with different molten metals and forms a "metal-waste residue" composite after cooling. This requires additional crushing and pickling treatment, which not only increases the process cost but may also lead to secondary metal loss. For materials containing multiple precious metals, single-cavity smelting can easily cause precious metals to be lost with the waste residue, with a recovery rate of less than 85%, and it is impossible to achieve graded collection of different metals.

[0003] Existing methods for filtering waste slag from medium-frequency furnaces largely rely on manual screening after smelting, which has the following drawbacks: Waste residue is suspended or settled in molten metal. If it is not filtered in real time, it is easy to enter the subsequent process with the molten metal. After cooling, it forms hard and brittle metal slag, and the metal loss rate exceeds 5% when crushing. Simple grid filtration is not enough to separate fine waste residue particles, resulting in insufficient purity of molten metal that requires secondary refining. Multi-layer filtration and waste liquid recycling are not possible. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a three-part separation mechanism for medium-frequency furnaces to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] As an optional solution of this utility model, the second stirring assembly includes a stirring frame, the top of which is connected to a first driver. The first driver is installed on the top of the cover plate and drives the stirring frame to rotate independently for mixing. A feed inlet is provided on one side of the furnace body, which is connected to the reaction chamber between the first partition and the second partition.

[0009] As an optional solution of this utility model, the discharge filtration mechanism includes a metal collection bin, the top of which is connected to the reaction chamber. A positioning frame is provided inside the metal collection bin, and a guide plate is installed on the positioning frame. A guide pipe is connected to one side of the metal collection bin, and one end of the guide pipe is connected to the metal collection port on the furnace body.

The drain chamber is located at the bottom of the furnace body, and a first drain port is provided at the bottom of the drain chamber.

[0010] As an optional solution of this utility model, the fine filtration mechanism includes a fine filter seat, which is installed inside the fine filter port. The fine filter seat is provided with a fine filter flow channel and a diversion pipe on the fine filter seat. The diversion pipe is provided with multiple diversion holes. The top of the fine filter seat is connected to a fine filter chamber. The diversion pipe is located inside the fine filter chamber.

[0011] This utility model provides a three-stage separation mechanism for a medium-frequency furnace, which has the following beneficial effects: The raw materials and reaction solution are thoroughly stirred and mixed by the first and second actuators to ensure the stability of the raw material reaction. The three equal chambers are set up and the different temperatures are adjusted to separate aluminum, copper and iron in the raw materials one by one, and they are filtered independently and collected in stages.

[0012] Waste residue is filtered by a filter screen box, while metal precipitates are collected by a metal collection chamber and discharged through a feed pipe. The waste liquid carried by the filter screen is discharged from the second drain port. After three stages of reaction filtration, the final solution is guided from the reaction chamber through a fine filter screen to a fine filter chamber, and then guided through a diversion pipe to a fine filter port for collection. Waste liquid that is not filtered by the fine filter screen is discharged from the metal collection chamber. The liquid is separated independently to avoid cross-contamination of metals and improve the metal recovery rate. Attached Figure Description
