[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0018] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a rapid salt melting device for a high-temperature salt bath, comprising a molten salt tank 1, a molten salt tank 2 inside the molten salt tank 1, a stirring shaft 3 rotatably connected inside the molten salt tank 2 via a sealed bearing, and multiple stirring blades 4 fixedly connected to corresponding sides of the stirring shaft 3. A feed trough 16 is provided inside the molten salt tank 1 and at the top of the molten salt tank 2, and a feed inlet 17 is provided inside the molten salt tank 1 and at the top of the feed trough 16. A spiral conveying shaft 18 is rotatably connected inside the feed trough 16, and spiral conveying blades are installed on the outer side of the spiral conveying shaft 18 to facilitate uniform conveying of falling solid salt and avoid blockage. One end of the spiral conveying shaft 18 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 3. A motor 19 is installed on the top of the salt tank 1 and on one side of the feed inlet 17. The output end of the motor 19 is fixedly connected to the screw conveyor shaft 18 via a coupling, providing power for the rotation of the screw conveyor shaft 18 and the stirring shaft 3, so that the stirring shaft 3 drives multiple stirring blades 4 to stir the molten salt. A heating plate 5 is installed on the inner wall of the molten salt tank 1 and on the outer side of the molten salt tank 2. Multiple vertically distributed heat-conducting fins 6 are welded inside the molten salt tank 2. Each heat-conducting fin 6 includes multiple metal fins, which, in conjunction with the heating plate 5, increase the heating area of the solid salt and improve the heating effect. Pneumatic rods 7 are rotatably connected inside the molten salt tank 2 and between the multiple heat-conducting fins 6. Air chambers 8 are opened inside the pneumatic rods 7, and multiple exhaust holes 9 are opened on both sides of the air chambers 8. An annular air groove 10 is opened on the inner wall of the molten salt tank 1 and at the top of the molten salt tank 2. Multiple air guide pipes 11 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the annular air groove 10, and one end of each air guide pipe 11 is inserted into one of the air chambers 8. A nitrogen tank 12 is installed on one side of the molten salt tank 1, and an air pump 13 is installed on the top of the nitrogen tank 12. The input and output ends of the air pump 13 are... An inlet pipe 14 and an outlet pipe 15 are fixedly connected to the nitrogen tank 12. One end of the inlet pipe 14 is fixedly connected to the inside of the nitrogen tank 12, and one end of the outlet pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the annular gas groove 10. Under the action of the air pump 13, nitrogen in the nitrogen tank 12 is drawn into the annular gas groove 10 and the gas chambers 8 of the multiple pneumatic rods 7, and discharged through multiple outlet holes 9. A large number of bubbles are generated in the high-temperature molten salt, which violently agitates the molten salt, forming a strong forced convection and carrying the high-temperature molten salt at the bottom upwards. This helps to achieve rapid and uniform temperature throughout the tank. A pressure reducing valve and a check valve are respectively installed on one side of the inlet pipe 14 and the outlet pipe 15 to ensure the safety of the nitrogen tank 12 and prevent the molten salt from flowing back into the outlet pipe 15 when the gas supply is stopped. An air filling pipe 26 and a discharge pipe 27 are fixedly connected to one side of the nitrogen tank 12 and the molten salt tank 2, respectively. Valves are installed on one side of both the air filling pipe 26 and the discharge pipe 27. A slot 21 is provided on the inner wall of the molten salt tank 1 and at the bottom of the molten salt tank 2. A first rotating shaft 22 is rotatably connected to the inside of the slot 21 via bearings. A plurality of second rotating shafts 23 are rotatably connected to the inside of the slot 21 and on the outside of the plurality of first rotating shafts 22 via bearings. A first gear 24 is installed on the outside of the first rotating shaft 22, and a second gear 25 is installed on the outside of the plurality of second rotating shafts 23. The first gear 24 meshes with the plurality of second gears 25. The first rotating shaft 22 and the plurality of second rotating shafts 23 are fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 3 and the plurality of pneumatic rods 7, respectively. Through the meshing of the first gear 24 with the plurality of second gears 25, the stirring shaft 3 and the plurality of pneumatic rods 7 are driven. The plurality of pneumatic rods 7 rotate with the rotation of the stirring shaft 3, so that the airflow can agitate the molten salt in all directions. A control panel 20 is installed on the outer wall of the molten salt tank 1.
[0019] In summary, this rapid salt melting device for high-temperature salt baths operates by feeding solid salt into the feed trough 16 through the feed inlet 17. The motor 19 drives the screw conveyor shaft 18 and the stirring shaft 3 to rotate, conveying the solid salt to the molten salt tank 2 within the molten salt tank 1. Simultaneously, the stirring shaft 3 drives the stirring blades 4 to stir the salt. The heating plate 5 heats the molten salt tank 2 and multiple heat-conducting fins 6, melting the salt. The air pump 13 draws nitrogen from the nitrogen tank 12 into the annular gas trough 10 within the molten salt tank 1 through the exhaust pipe 15, and then discharges it through multiple gas guide pipes 11. The air is discharged through the exhaust port 9 into the air chamber 8 inside the pneumatic rod 7 between the heat-conducting fins 6, generating a large number of bubbles in the high-temperature molten salt and violently agitating it. Since the first rotating shaft 22 and multiple second rotating shafts 23 in the empty tank 21 are fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 3 and multiple pneumatic rods 7 respectively, the first gear 24 on the outside of the first rotating shaft 22 meshes with the second gear 25 on the outside of the multiple second rotating shafts 23 respectively. Therefore, the stirring shaft 3 and multiple pneumatic rods 7 are driven, and the multiple pneumatic rods 7 rotate with the rotation of the stirring shaft 3, causing the airflow to drive the molten salt to agitate in all directions.
