Crystallization device
View Patent ↗To provide a crystallization device with a simple structure and high classification performance in crystallization at a center part of an upper part in a vertical container having a classification leg on a bottom portion, rotor blade unit for generating a swirling flow of a raw material liquid of a suspension slurry in the container along an inner circumferential surface of the container is provided, and at a center part on a bottom surface of the container, liquid-flow direction changing unit for causing the raw material liquid to flow upward at the center part of the container is provided, and the liquid-flow direction changing unit is formed of baffles, each being made of a band-shaped plate, provided radially on the bottom surface.
1. A crystallization device comprising:
a vertical container;
a classification leg on a bottom part of the container;
a rotor blade means provided at a center part of an upper part in the vertical container configured to generate a swirling flow of a raw material liquid in the container along an inner circumferential surface of the container;
a liquid-flow direction changing means provided at a center part of a bottom surface in the container configured to cause the raw material liquid to flow upward at the center part of the container; and
a circulation pipeline having a first fluid opening at a lower end portion of the classification leg and a second fluid opening at a side surface of the container above the rotor blade means.
2. The crystallization device according to claim 1 , wherein
the liquid-flow direction changing means is constituted by baffles provided radially on the bottom surface.
3. The crystallization device according to claim 2 , wherein
the baffles are formed of band-shaped plates disposed at a predetermined interval from a radial line of the center of the bottom surface in a rear of a rotating direction of the rotor blade means.
4. The crystallization device according to claim 1 , wherein
the rotor blade means is composed of a blade body protruding radially from a hub and a disk secured to an upper end of the blade body.
5. The crystallization device according to claim 2 , wherein
the rotor blade means is composed of a blade body protruding radially from a hub and a disk secured to an upper end of the blade body.
6. The crystallization device according to claim 3 , wherein
the rotor blade means is composed of a blade body protruding radially from a hub and a disk secured to an upper end of the blade body.
7. The crystallization device according to claim 3 , wherein
each band-shaped plate of each baffle is fixed and includes a flat top surface.
8. The crystallization device according to claim 1 , wherein
the vertical container does not include a draft tube therethrough.
