Description

  The present invention is a solid that is mixed in water, particularly a fine solid or slime is received on the wedge wire screen surface, and is scraped up by a scraper and discharged out of the machine from the screen surface. And a solid-liquid separator capable of preventing clogging of the screen by running while rotating the brush along the back surface of the screen, particularly in a concentrating device such as sludge, in its pretreatment stage. The present invention relates to a solid-liquid separator used in the above.

The present applicant has proposed a wedge wire screen described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-190889.
This wedge wire screen has a high cleaning efficiency and a high durability configuration. The screen surface 2 is formed by the wedge wire, and the cleaning rotary brush 8 that reciprocates left and right on the back side of the screen surface 2 is provided. The screen surface 2 is cleaned from the back using the rotating brush 8 to efficiently prevent clogging. In addition, by controlling the geared motor 22 with an inverter, the speed at the time of reversal is controlled so as to soften the mechanical shock, and the durability is improved by the unreasonable drive control suitable for the object to be processed. It is a devised configuration.

  However, in the case of the wedge wire screen, the waste water is caused to flow on the screen surface 2 to cause the water to flow downward from the screen surface 2, and the solid matter received on the screen surface 2 is dropped downward along the screen surface 2. It is the structure which discharges outside. For this reason, it is effective when the solid matter is difficult to adhere to the screen surface.For example, when it is easy to adhere when wet, such as hair, paper, or leaves, it adheres to the screen surface, and from the back. No matter how much brushing, there is a problem that such deposits cannot be discharged from the screen surface 2.

In addition, instead of a method of dropping solid matter along the screen surface 2 in this way, a dust remover (sewage, sewage waterway) that scrapes the solid matter adhering to the screen surface 2 along the screen surface 2 and discharges it outside the machine. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 9-019655 discloses a screen residue and sand sinking device.
The contents of this dust remover are sewage and sewage sewage, sediment sinking equipment, and are installed at a slant to the sewage to reduce equipment size, save labor, and save power. A bar screen 2 for stopping the residue, a sand settling part 1 for setting sand in the sewage in the downstream water channel, a drive gear 31 on the upper part of the bar screen, a lower part of the bar screen, and a downstream part of the sand settling part. Gears 32 and 33 are provided and endless chains 34 are stretched, and a large number of them are attached to the chain at equal intervals. Sand sinking and slag moving means provided with rake claws 38 for lifting the screen residue of the bar screen upward, an unloading conveyor 5 for unloading the residue to the outside of the apparatus, and a sand unloading conveyor arranged in parallel below 6 and con In which characterized in that a grit 吸揚 up means connected in the pipe between the Ya and the sand reservoir.

However, in the case of this apparatus, the solid matter adhering to the surface of the screen 2 can surely be lifted up and discharged to some extent, but for example, like hair attached to the width of each bar, or pig or cow In the case of relatively short hair or slime-like deposits such as body hair, it is often difficult to lift and discharge, and it often remains attached to the surface of the bar. It is necessary to clean the surface.
Further, in the case of this known example, if the rake claw 38 is strongly pressed against the surface of the screen 2 in order to increase the scraping rate, the rake claw 38 and the screen 2 are heavily worn, the durability deteriorates and the rake claw 38 is replaced. And the repair of the screen 2 is necessary, so even if some scraping rate is sacrificed, the pressure contact force is weakened, and as a result, the solid matter adhering to the screen surface cannot be discharged completely. There is.
JP 2003-190889 A Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-019655

  The present invention has been proposed in view of such points, and its purpose is excellent in the performance of discharging fine solids, solids do not remain on the screen surface, and clogging is efficiently performed. It is another object of the present invention to provide a solid-liquid separation apparatus that can prevent the problem.

In order to achieve the above object, in the invention described in claim 1, a scraper that lifts along the front surface of the screen and lifts solid matter adhering to the front surface of the screen and discharges it to the outside of the screen is provided. In the solid-liquid separator having a rotating brush that removes clogs from the screen by rotating up and down and reciprocating while rotating in contact with the back of the screen, the scraper is made of rubber or resin. These blades are attached to the left and right ends between scraper drive chains spanned between scraper drive sprockets arranged above and below both sides on the front side of the screen surface . The base of the scraper mounting bar 10 is detachably sandwiched between two presser plates. The scraper pressure contact means with pressure force control means for contacting the scraper from behind and pressing the blade against the screen surface is provided in a region where the tip end side is configured to be free and the scraper ascends. It is characterized by using a wedge wire screen characterized by the above.

[Action]
The solid-liquid separator is incorporated in a waste water channel, a liquid receiving tank, a separator, a sludge concentrator, or the like. Waste water (sludge) mixed with solid matter is thrown into the screen surface. As for the waste water input in this way, solid liquid is separated on the screen surface, and only the waste water flows down from the water-permeable gaps of the bars constituting the screen surface to the back side. In this way, the solid matter mixed in the wastewater is separated.
The solid matter received on the screen surface is swept up by a scraper rising along the screen surface and discharged out of the screen.
On the other hand, on the back side of the screen, the rotating brush scrapes away the deposits adhering to the back side of the bar and the reverse V-shaped water-permeable gap, and repeatedly moves up and down along the back side of the screen to prevent clogging. And always keep the screen in the best condition.

  As described above, according to the present invention, the scraper blade is made of an elastic material such as rubber, so that even if the pressure contact force against the screen surface is increased, the moving load of the scraper does not increase so much, and the scraper wears due to frictional force. Moreover, the chance of damaging the screen can be reduced, and in the case of an elastic body, fine solids such as hair or slime can be efficiently discharged by the wiping action.

  In addition, since the blade is detachably attached between the two pressing plates, it can be worn or easily replaced with a new one or a blade having a different elastic force depending on the application.

In FIG. 3, 36 is a water receiving tank in which the above-described apparatus 1 is set obliquely, 37 is a waste water inlet, and 38 is a waste water outlet.
As shown in FIG. 3, the apparatus 1 is set obliquely in a water receiving tank 36, and waste water containing solid matter is introduced into the water receiving tank 36 from a waste water introduction port 37. In addition, as an example of installation of the apparatus 1, there is an example in which the apparatus 1 is installed horizontally or close to this.
Since the introduced wastewater is drained from the wastewater discharge port 38, the wastewater flows in the water receiving tank 36 via the screen 3 of the set device 1. In this flow, the solid matter is received on the surface of the screen 3. The scraper 13 of the scraping device 6 transmits the rotation of the motor 14 to the scraper drive chains 9 and 9a, and the chains 9 and 9a travel to move the front of the screen 3 upward. During this movement, the solid matter received on the surface of the screen 3 is lifted up by the blade 12 and discharged from the upper end of the screen 3 to the outside of the apparatus.

  On the other hand, the rotating brush 25 of the apparatus 1 moves along the back surface of the screen 3 by the traveling of the rotating brush drive chains 23 and 23a by the rotation of the motor 31, and rotates by the action of the drive gear 26a and the rack 27 during this movement. . As a result, the bristles of the rotating brush 25 enter the water-permeable gap 5 of the bar 4 on the back surface of the screen 3 to prevent clogging.
