FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The disclosure relates generally to the field of sewage treatment. More specifically, the disclosure relates to the field of a bearingless hydraulic rotary stirring water distributor.


BACKGROUND

As society develops, the environment-compliant requirements grow higher. The sewage discharge standard becomes more rigorous. The biological treatment equipment and technology for wastewater are continuously improved while the wastewater treatment technology is continuously developed. One significant aspect for improving the capability and the quality of the biological treatment equipment is that the water-distributing and stirring uniformity of the biological treatment equipment should be improved to ensure that the microbial sludge can be fully in contact with the organic matters in water, thereby improving the mass transfer effect.


The traditional water distributor mostly utilizes a lattice type water distribution manner as the main water distribution manner, that is, one point serves one corresponding area; stirring under the impact force of water is achieved by utilizing the power of water feeding, but such impact force of water is limited, or water inflowing rate and quantity are fluctuated, so the water distribution will not be uniform; besides, a junction between an area served by one point and an area served by another point will generate a dead area, in which the stirring is not achieved, the stirring capability and mixing capability of such water distribution are weak, and such water distribution is a local behavior to a reactor, so excellent stirring water distribution effect cannot be achieved, and the treatment capability and the treatment quality of the biological treatment equipment cannot be improved. Additionally, the mechanical stirrer only has a stirring function and does not have a water distribution function, and after it is used for a long time, its shafts and bearings will generate mechanical faults such as dead lock and the like, so the functions of the biological treatment equipment are reduced.


SUMMARY

The following presents a simplified summary of the invention in order to provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the invention. This summary is not an extensive overview of the invention. It is not intended to identify critical elements or to delineate the scope of the invention. Its sole purpose is to present some concepts of the invention in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented elsewhere.


In some embodiments, the disclosure provides a bearingless hydraulic rotary stirring water distributor.


According to an embodiment, a bearingless hydraulic rotary stirring water distributor comprises a rotary inlet pipe, stirring pipes, water distribution pipes, a ball head shaft, a fixed inlet pipe, a bowl seat and seal rings. The stirring water distributor is vertically mounted. The fixed inlet pipe is vertically arranged and inserted into the rotary inlet pipe. The fixed inlet pipe and the rotary inlet pipe are mechanically sealed through the seal rings therebetween. The rotary inlet pipe is a vertically mounted pipe and is vertically mounted in a semispherical groove of the bowl seat through the ball head shaft mounted at one end of the rotary inlet pipe. The rotary inlet pipe rotatably runs around the fixed inlet pipe and the ball head shaft under the support of the bowl seat. The stirring pipes are mounted horizontally on the two sides of the lower part of the rotary inlet pipe, and the two stirring pipes are symmetric by taking the center line of the rotary inlet pipe as the axis of symmetry. One end of each stirring pipe is vertically communicated with the rotary inlet pipe, and the opening of the other end of each stirring pipe is closed by a stop plate. Ends of the two stirring pipes close to the stop plates are respectively provided with at least one water distribution pipe. The water distribution pipes on the two stirring pipes are located on the same horizontal plane, and have opposite water discharging directions.


According to another embodiment, the water distribution pipes are perpendicular to the stirring pipes.


According to a further embodiment, the ball head shaft is composed of a circular shaft and a ball head, and the circular shaft is fixed on the ball head through a welding manner or through threads and is also formed by one-time turning processing; the outer diameter of the circular shaft and the inner diameter of the rotary inlet pipe are in an interference fit; and the outer diameter of the ball head is smaller than the inner diameter of the semispherical groove of the bowl seat.


In some embodiments, the rotary inlet pipe, the stirring pipes, and the water distribution pipes are in communication with each other. Water is fed into the rotary inlet pipe through the fixed inlet pipe and then discharged through the water distribution pipes.


In some other embodiments, the number of the water distribution pipes on each stirring pipe is more than one.


In some further embodiments, a vertical inclination angle between the axial line of the rotary inlet pipe and the axial line of the ball head shaft is smaller than 3 degrees.


According to an embodiment, the axial line of the fixed inlet pipe, the axial line of the rotary inlet pipe and the center line of the semispherical groove of the bowl seat coincide; and a gap between the fixed inlet pipe and the rotary inlet pipe is sealed by the seal rings.


According to another embodiment, the length of each stirring pipe, the inclination angle between each water distribution pipe and the horizontal plane and the water discharging direction of each water distribution pipe are manipulated in order to achieve a stable running and optimal stirring effects.


According to a further embodiment, a bearingless hydraulic rotary stirring water distributor takes the water discharging reacting force of the water distribution pipes as the power to drive the stirring pipes to move in an opposite direction of the water discharging direction to achieve uniform water distribution and mechanical stirring. When wastewater is fed into the rotary inlet pipe through the fixed inlet pipe, the wastewater respectively enters the stirring pipes on the two sides through the rotary inlet pipe and then are respectively discharged from the water distribution pipes at the end parts of the stirring pipes on the two sides. The wastewater discharged from the water distribution pipes generate a recoil force to the stirring pipes so that the stirring pipes drive the rotary inlet pipe to rotate in a counter-clockwise direction. The ball head shaft is mounted at the end part of the rotary inlet pipe, and the contact between the ball head and the semispherical groove of the bowl seat is point contact to generate an extremely small friction force, thereby operating the hydraulic rotary stirring water distributor under a bearingless state.


Some of embodiments of the disclosure may have one or more of the following effects: the bearingless hydraulic rotary stirring water distributor is a mechanical stirrer which may generate rotary stirring under a hydraulic action; it adopts two mechanical seals which may solve a leakage problem during mechanical movement; it adopts a support structure of the ball head shaft and the bowl seat which may control the position of the ball head shaft and solves the stress stability; and the ball head shaft and the bowl seat are in point contact and run in a sliding state which may ensure no faults (such as dead lock) arise even if the system keeps running for a long time. The stirring pipes rotate along with the rotary inlet pipe which may achieve a mechanical stirring function, and the water distribution pipes rotate along with the stirring pipes which may achieve movable water distribution and a uniform water distribution effect. Furthermore, the bearingless hydraulic rotary stirring water distributor may have a simple design structure and may be convenient to mount without further maintenance
