Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soaking device technology, and in particular to a bamboo strip soaking device. Background Technology

[0002] In bamboo processing, a soaking process is sometimes required to improve the quality of bamboo products. Currently, in the industry, bamboo strips are usually soaked separately, and then manually retrieved after soaking. This method is labor-intensive and inefficient. Alternatively, the bamboo strips are bundled together and soaked directly. However, because the bamboo strips are relatively compact when piled or stacked, the gaps between them are small. During soaking, most of the soaking solution in the gaps between the bundled or stacked bamboo strips remains relatively still, lacking disturbance. Therefore, the penetration efficiency between the soaking solution and the bamboo strips is low, significantly reducing the overall soaking efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a bamboo soaking device that can improve the soaking efficiency of bamboo strips piled up, stacked, or bundled.

[0004] To achieve the purpose of this utility model, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a bamboo strip soaking device, including a soaking device, a turnover device and a lifting device, wherein the soaking device includes a soaking container, a first inlet pipe is provided on the liquid inlet of the soaking container, a first outlet pipe is provided on the liquid outlet of the soaking container, and a return pipe is provided on the liquid return port of the soaking container. The turnover device includes a turnover container, a second inlet pipe is provided on the liquid inlet of the turnover container, and a second outlet pipe is provided on the liquid outlet of the turnover container. The first outlet pipe is connected to the second inlet pipe, and the second outlet pipe is connected to the return pipe.

[0005] Preferably, it further includes a solid-liquid separation device, which includes a solid-liquid separator. The solid-liquid separator has a third inlet pipe at its inlet and a third outlet pipe at its outlet. The third inlet pipe is connected to the first outlet pipe and the second inlet pipe via a three-way pipe. The third outlet pipe is connected to the second outlet pipe and the return pipe via a three-way pipe. A three-way valve is installed on each of the two three-way pipes.

[0006] Preferably, a water pump is installed on the reflux pipe, the second inlet pipe and the third inlet pipe respectively.

[0007] Preferably, the lifting device includes a chassis, a turntable is rotatably mounted on the chassis, a robotic arm is mounted on the turntable, and a clamping block is mounted on the end of the robotic arm away from the turntable.

[0008] Preferably, the soaking container is provided with a vent pipe, the air inlet of the vent pipe is located inside the soaking container, and the vent pipe is provided with an air valve and a gas distributor.

[0009] Preferably, the soaking container has a jacket on its outer wall.

[0010] Preferably, the turnover container is provided with a stirring device, the stirring device includes a stirring shaft, the bottom end of the stirring shaft is disposed on the bottom surface of the turnover container, one or more sets of stirring blades are disposed on the outer wall of the stirring shaft inside the turnover container, and a motor is disposed at the top of the turnover container, the output end of the motor is connected to the upper end of the stirring shaft.

[0011] This utility model has the following advantages: (1) In this utility model, by setting up a lifting device, the bamboo strips that are pre-bundled or bundled are lifted and placed in a soaking container for soaking. After soaking, the bamboo strips are lifted out of the soaking container by the lifting device. This can effectively increase the capacity of bamboo strips in the same volume of the soaking container. At the same time, compared with manually lifting bamboo strips, the labor intensity is smaller and the work efficiency is improved. (2) In this utility model, by setting up a soaking container and a turnover container, the first liquid outlet pipe on the soaking container and the second liquid inlet pipe on the turnover container are connected, and the second liquid outlet pipe on the turnover container is connected to the return pipe on the soaking container. The turnover container is added to the soaking device to temporarily separate the bamboo strips and soaking liquid in the soaking container during the soaking process. The soaking liquid can be treated by sedimentation, pH adjustment and component / concentration adjustment in the turnover container. The treated soaking liquid is then returned to the soaking container through the return pipe. The above device allows the soaking liquid to circulate between the soaking container and the turnover container. Through the circulation of the soaking liquid, the soaking liquid is in a state of relative flow between the bamboo strips, which can increase the contact between the soaking liquid and the various surfaces of the bamboo strips, promote the mixing between the bamboo strips and the soaking liquid, and improve the soaking efficiency of the bamboo strips. At the same time, the use of the lifting device during the soaking process can further promote the contact between the various surfaces of the bamboo strips and the soaking liquid, thereby further improving the soaking effect of the bamboo strips.

[0018] like Figure 1-4The present invention relates to a bamboo strip soaking device, which includes a soaking device 1, a turnover device 2 and a lifting device 4. The soaking device 1 includes a soaking container 11, a first inlet pipe 12 is provided on the inlet of the soaking container 11, a first outlet pipe 13 is provided on the outlet of the soaking container 11, and a return pipe 14 is provided on the return port of the soaking container 11. The turnover device 2 includes a turnover container 21, a second inlet pipe 22 is provided on the inlet of the turnover container 21, and a second outlet pipe 23 is provided on the outlet of the turnover container 21. The first liquid outlet pipe 13 is connected to the second liquid inlet pipe 22, and the second liquid outlet pipe 23 is connected to the return pipe 14.

[0019] The soaking container 11 is used to hold the soaking solution and soak the bamboo strips. The soaking container 11 can also be used for the soaking fermentation of bamboo strips. Since the bamboo in the factory is usually 1 meter or 2 meters in length, the length of the soaking container 11 should be at least 2.2 meters. In actual production, the size of the soaking container 11 can be adjusted according to the actual size of the bamboo to be soaked. The turnover container 21 is used to turnover the soaking solution discharged from the soaking container 11. Various adjustment operations can be performed on the soaking solution in the turnover container 21, such as precipitation, pH adjustment, and adjustment of the composition and concentration of the soaking agent according to the physicochemical properties of the soaking solution. The lifting device 4 is used to lift the bamboo strips that have been pre-bundled or stacked and put them into the soaking container for soaking. The lifting device 4 can also be used to lift the bamboo strips when it is necessary to remove them from the container. The number of liquid inlets and outlets on the soaking container 11 can be increased according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, the soaking container 11 has two liquid inlets, namely an inlet and a return outlet, and one outlet. The soaking container 11 is equipped with a first liquid inlet pipe 12 at the inlet, a first liquid outlet pipe 13 at the outlet, and a return pipe 14 at the return outlet. The first liquid inlet pipe 12 is used to introduce an external liquid source into the soaking container 11, and the first liquid outlet pipe 13 is used to introduce the soaking liquid in the soaking container 11 into the transfer container 21. The turnover container 21 is equipped with a second inlet pipe 22 and an outlet pipe 23. The second inlet pipe 22 is connected to the first outlet pipe 13, and the second outlet pipe 23 is connected to the return pipe 14. During the soaking process, the soaking solution flows out from the first outlet pipe 13 and enters the turnover container 21 through the second inlet pipe 22, separating the soaking solution from the bamboo strips. The soaking solution is adjusted and treated in the turnover container 21 according to the actual situation. After treatment, it flows back into the soaking container 11 through the second outlet pipe 23 and the return pipe 14, allowing the soaking solution and bamboo strips to re-enter the container. The above-mentioned device allows the soaking liquid to circulate between the soaking container 11 and the transfer container 21. Through the circulation of the soaking liquid, the soaking liquid is in a state of relative flow between the bamboo strips, which increases the contact between the soaking liquid and the surface of each bamboo strip, promotes the mixing between each bamboo strip and the soaking liquid, and improves the soaking efficiency of the bamboo strips. At the same time, the use of the lifting device 4 during the soaking process, which lifts and lowers the bamboo strips, can further promote the contact between each surface of the bamboo strips and the soaking liquid, thereby further improving the soaking effect of the bamboo strips.

[0020] like Figure 1-2As shown, it also includes a solid-liquid separation device 3, which includes a solid-liquid separator 31. The solid-liquid separator 31 has a third inlet pipe 32 at its inlet and a third outlet pipe 33 at its outlet. The third inlet pipe 32 is connected to the first outlet pipe 13 and the second inlet pipe 22 via a three-way pipe. The third outlet pipe 33 is connected to the second outlet pipe 23 and the return pipe 14 via a three-way pipe. A three-way valve 5 is installed on the two three-way pipes.

[0021] The solid-liquid separator 31 in the solid-liquid separation device 3 is used to separate particulate matter such as various bamboo chips, precipitated minerals, and bacteria in the soaking solution. In different embodiments, the solid-liquid separator 31 can be selected according to the specific properties of the solids and liquids to be separated. Available solid-liquid separators 31 include centrifuges, plate and frame filters, etc. The first outlet pipe 13, the second inlet pipe 22, and the third inlet pipe 32 are connected by a T-connector. The third outlet pipe 33 is connected to the second outlet pipe 23 and the return pipe 14 by a T-connector. Each component is equipped with a three-way valve 5. Rotating the three-way valve 5 at the connection of the first outlet pipe 13, the second inlet pipe 22, and the third inlet pipe 32 changes the flow direction of the soaking solution, allowing it to flow to the transfer container 21 or the solid-liquid separator 31 as needed. If the soaking solution needs to flow to the transfer container 21, rotating the three-way valve 5 closes the third inlet pipe 32, allowing the first outlet pipe 13 and the second inlet pipe 22 to flow. If the soaking solution needs to flow to the solid-liquid separator 31, rotating the three-way valve 5 closes the second inlet pipe 32, allowing both the first outlet pipe 13 and the third inlet pipe 32 to flow. This allows the soaking solution adjustment and solid-liquid separation to be performed simultaneously within a certain time. Based on the above operating principle, by rotating the three-way valve 5 at the connection between the second outlet pipe 23, the third outlet pipe 33, and the return pipe 14, the soaking solution treated in the transfer container 21 or the soaking solution after solid-liquid separation by the solid-liquid separator 31 can be returned to the soaking container 11. The aforementioned components allow for simultaneous soaking solution adjustment and solid-liquid separation, improving the device's efficiency to a certain extent. Simultaneously, the soaking solution undergoes both adjustment and solid-liquid separation. The liquid is then returned to the soaking container 11 for reuse, which reduces the waste of soaking liquid and saves costs. In different embodiments, the solid-liquid separator 31 can also be set in different positions to achieve the same technical effect as in this embodiment. For example, the solid-liquid separator 13 can be set between the first liquid outlet pipe 13 and the second liquid inlet pipe 22, or the solid-liquid separator 31 can be set between the second liquid outlet pipe 22 and the soaking container return pipe 14 to achieve the above-mentioned technical effect. In different embodiments, the three-way valve 5 can also be replaced by using two or more other valves to achieve the function of switching the liquid flow direction.

[0022] like Figure 2As shown, water pumps 7 are respectively installed on the return pipe 14, the second inlet pipe 22 and the third inlet pipe 32.

[0023] Pumps 7 are installed on the return pipe 14, the second inlet pipe 22, and the third inlet pipe 32 respectively to pressurize the soaking solution during pipeline transportation, thus preventing the soaking solution from failing to enter the relevant processing containers smoothly. In other embodiments, a shared pump design can be implemented through pipeline connections and valve switching, or the soaking container 11, the turnover container 21, and the solid-liquid separator 31 can be set at different horizontal heights, so that the liquid between some containers can flow by gravity, reducing the need for pumps 7 or even eliminating the need for pumps 7.

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, the lifting device 4 includes a chassis 41, a turntable 42 is rotatably mounted on the chassis 41, a robotic arm 43 is mounted on the turntable 42, and a clamping block 44 is mounted on the end of the robotic arm 43 away from the turntable 42.

[0025] The lifting device 4 is used to lift and release bamboo strips that have been pre-bundled or stacked. The clamping block 44 is used to clamp the bamboo strips. The clamping block 44 may be provided with protrusions to increase the friction between the clamping block 44 and the bamboo strips, ensuring that the clamping block 44 clamps the bamboo strips stably. The robotic arm 43 is used to drive the clamping block 44 to make precise adjustments to its position and angle, ensuring that the clamping block 44 can accurately clamp the bamboo strips. By setting a turntable 42, the turntable 42 can rotate on the chassis 41, driving the robotic arm 43 to rotate, so that the clamping block 44 can clamp bamboo strips in different directions. In other embodiments, other devices that can achieve the same function as the lifting device 4, such as lifting devices, can be used as replacements.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the soaking container 11 is provided with a vent pipe 15, the air inlet of the vent pipe 15 is located inside the soaking container 11, and the vent pipe 15 is provided with an air valve 16 and a gas distributor 17.

[0027] The ventilation pipe 15 is used to pump gas into the soaking liquid in the soaking container 11 to exchange gases and improve the soaking efficiency of the bamboo strips during the soaking process. The air valve 16 is used to adjust the gas flow rate into the soaking container 11. The gas distributor 17 can promote the contact efficiency between the gas and the soaking liquid in the soaking container 11.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, a jacket 18 is provided on the outer wall of the soaking container 11.

[0029] The heat exchange device on the soaking container 11 is used to heat or cool the soaking liquid to improve the soaking efficiency of the device. In this embodiment, a jacket 18 is added to the outer wall of the soaking container 11 to heat or cool the soaking liquid. In other embodiments, a device that can achieve the same function as the jacket 18, such as a coil, can be used to replace the jacket 18.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, a stirring device 6 is provided on the turnover container 21. The stirring device 6 includes a stirring shaft 61. The bottom end of the stirring shaft 61 is provided on the bottom surface of the turnover container 21. One or more sets of stirring blades 62 are provided on the outer wall of the stirring shaft 61 inside the turnover container 21. A motor 63 is provided at the top of the turnover container 21. The output end of the motor 63 is connected to the upper end of the stirring shaft 61.

[0031] In this embodiment, a stirring device 6 is provided on the transfer container 21. The stirring device 6 is used to stir the soaking solution when the transfer container 21 is adjusting the soaking solution, so as to promote the full mixing of the soaking solution and the regulator and improve the adjustment efficiency of the soaking solution and the regulator. When stirring, the motor 63 is started to drive the stirring shaft 61 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring blades 62 to fully mix the soaking solution and the regulator. The number of stirring blades can be selected according to the quantity. In other embodiments, in addition to the stirring device 6 mentioned above, other equipment that can achieve the stirring function can be used instead, such as directly using a liquid pump to create the flow of liquid in the transfer container 21 to create liquid mixing. It is preferred to use the stirring device described in this embodiment. In addition, an inert gas such as nitrogen can be pumped into the transfer container 21 and used in conjunction with the stirring device 6 to improve the dissolution efficiency of the soaking solution.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the soaking solution is introduced into the soaking container 11. The bamboo strips are placed in the soaking solution using the lifting device 4. During the soaking process, the soaking solution flows out from the first outlet pipe 13 and enters the transfer container 21 through the second inlet pipe 22, separating the soaking solution from the bamboo strips. The soaking solution is adjusted in the transfer container 21 according to actual needs. After the adjustment is completed, it flows back into the soaking container 11 through the second outlet pipe 23 and the return pipe 14, allowing the soaking solution and bamboo strips to be soaked again. This allows the soaking solution to circulate between the soaking container 11 and the transfer container 21. Through the circulation of the soaking solution, the contact between the soaking solution and the various surfaces of the bamboo strips is increased, and the soaking solution is in a relative flow state between the bamboo strips, promoting the mixing between the bamboo strips and the soaking solution and improving the soaking efficiency of the bamboo strips. At the same time, the lifting device 4 is used in conjunction with the soaking process to lift and place the bamboo strips, which further promotes the contact between the various surfaces of the bamboo strips and the soaking solution, thereby further improving the soaking effect of the bamboo strips.

[0033] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims. All of these forms are within the protection scope of the present invention.
