Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a candle-type ballast water filtration apparatus having improved airtightness of a housing,

The present invention relates to a ballast water filtering apparatus comprising: a housing having an inlet portion and an outlet portion through which ballast water of a ship can flow in and out and is divided into an upper housing upper portion and a lower housing lower portion by a lower plate; And the automatic washing unit is disposed between the driving shaft and the upper portion of the lower cover, and the backwash water is discharged from the upper portion of the lower cover, A lower cover upper portion that occupies a certain area in the portion of the drive shaft that penetrates through the housing and is thicker than the thickness of the housing body; and a lower cover upper portion that covers the upper portion of the lower cover from the lower side of the upper portion of the lower cover. A lower cover lower part coupled to the lower cover upper part, Wherein the backwashing water of the suction unit is inserted into the housing along the drive shaft and the air is supplied to the housing through the housing, Type ballast water filtration apparatus which improves the airtightness of the housing to prevent leakage of the ballast water to the outside.

Ballast water means seawater filled in a vessel to maintain the balance of the ship when the vessel is stationed at a specific port and unloaded or unloaded. If a vessel filled with ballast water is stationed at a port in another country and discharges its load, ballast water on board must be discharged to the port of the country. At this time, the marine species in the seawater used as ballast water . Therefore, treatment of ballast water in ships is required prior to discharging ballast water to other countries.

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a ballast water filtration treatment apparatus (hereinafter referred to as a conventional ballast water filtration apparatus) for discharging backwash water through a lower portion of a filtration apparatus among ballast water filtration apparatuses using a conventional filter.

(Patent Literature) No. 10-1287090 (Registered on Jul. 11, 2013) "High-efficiency candle-type ballast water filtration apparatus with high-

1, a conventional ballast water filtration apparatus is provided with a conical filter 92 in a circumferential direction in a cylindrical filter body 91 and a ballast water (Hereinafter referred to as "filter water") is passed through the filter 92 inside the filtering device body 91 and then filtered to flow out the filtered ballast water (hereinafter referred to as "filtration water") to the outflow portion 99, The rotation shaft 94 passing through the body 91 of the filtration apparatus and the suction unit 95 under the filtration apparatus connected thereto are rotated through the motor 93 located above the filtration apparatus so that the flushing arm 98 The filtered water filtered inside the filtration apparatus flows into the filter by the differential pressure between the suction unit 95 and the filtration unit to clean the foreign substances adhered to the filter, (Hereinafter referred to as " backwash water ") passes through the suction portion 95, Exit through the portion 96.

However, in the conventional ballast water filtering apparatus, when used as a filtration apparatus for an oil tank, only the solid material is filtered and adhered to the filter. Therefore, when backwashing due to differential pressure, So that the filtration efficiency can be improved. However, when it is used as a marine ballast water filtration device, materials such as microorganisms and jellyfish in seawater are very viscous, so it is difficult to be easily separated and removed by differential pressure when they are attached to filter pores. The efficiency of the apparatus is significantly reduced.

Particularly, the suction unit 95 includes a flushing arm 98 which receives the driving force of the motor 93 and is in close contact with the lower surface of the lower plate 97 on which the filter 92 is positioned and rotates at a constant angular velocity along a concentric circle The suction space 981 of the flushing arm 98 is matched with the inflow hole 971 of the lower plate 97 communicating with the lower surface of the filter so that the filter 92 is backwashed. The suction space 981 is communicated with the inlet hole 971 to perform backwashing and the flushing arm 98 is moved from the backwashing inlet hole 971 to the neighboring other inlet hole 971 ' The backwashing is not performed. As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, in the course of backwashing, in the section where the suction space 981 starts overlapping with the inflow hole 971, The differential pressure inside the filtration device is not applied so much that the foreign substances attached to the surface of the filter 92 are not separated cleanly. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4 (c), the suction space 981 is completely covered with the inlet hole 971, so that the foreign substances adhering to the inner wall surface of the filter 92 are cleanly removed. However, since the flushing arm 98 rotates at a constant angular speed in the prior art, the state of FIG. 4 (c) lasts only for a very short time, so that the backwashing efficiency is lowered, The balancing and de-balusting of the ship must be stopped during the shortening of the life of the equipment involved in backwashing such as the suction unit 95 and frequent breakdown and backwash, . Therefore, there is a need to improve the backwashing efficiency by accurately controlling the radius of rotation of the suction portion 95. [

Since the filtration apparatus seats the lower plate 97 on the upper surface of the protrusion 91a of the housing, the upper space of the lower plate 97 where the filtered water is stored and the lower space of the lower plate 97, There is a fear that the confidentiality is not properly performed and the filtered water and the raw water are mixed.

In addition, although the ship is very vigorous due to the waves, the lid 911 of the body 91 transmits the vibration as it is on the upper side of the filtration apparatus, So that the operation efficiency is remarkably lowered.

Since the filter 92 is made entirely of metal, the filter 92 may be provided with a problem such as corrosion occurring due to contact between dissimilar metals at a portion where the filter 92 is in contact with other components such as the lower plate 97 .

The driving unit 52 generates power and rotates the driving shaft 523 to rotate the flushing body 512 and the flushing arm 511). The conventional driving unit 52 directly connects the power means 521 and the driving shaft 523 to transmit the rotational force produced by the power means 521 to the suction unit 51 through the drive shaft 523, 51) is rotated at a constant angular velocity. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the flushing arm 511 continuously rotates at a predetermined angular velocity on the lower surface of the lower plate 33. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, The time required to communicate with the element 31 is not long and the flushing arm 511 and the filter element 31 are matched with each other as shown in FIG. The backwashing was performed in a state in which the efficiency was remarkably low because there was only an extremely short time. Accordingly, in the present invention, the suction unit 51 is divided into a stop state and a rotation state, and the time can be easily adjusted, thereby improving the backwashing efficiency of the ballast water filtration apparatus. The driving unit 52 includes a power unit 521, a control unit 522, and a driving shaft 523.

The power unit 521 generates power to rotate the suction unit 51, and preferably a motor or the like can be used.

10, the control means 522 transmits the power generated from the power means 521 to the suction portion 51 through the drive shaft 523, and the rotation distance of the suction portion 51 A rotation speed, a stop state, a time in the rotation state, and the like, and includes a rotation shaft 5221, a rotation blade 5222, and a rotation body 5223. [

The rotating shaft 5221 is directly connected to the power means 521 and rotates by the power generated by the power means 521, and preferably has a long cylindrical bar shape. The rotating shaft 5221 rotates at a constant speed but the rotation of the rotating body 5223 and the driving shaft 523 is mechanically controlled according to the shape of the rotating blade 5222 to be described later, There is an advantage that the exercise can be controlled easily.

The rotary vane 5222 is fixed at a predetermined point of the rotary shaft 5221 and is formed along a predetermined circumference of the rotary shaft 5221. The rotary vane 5221 rotates together with the rotation of the rotary shaft 5221. The rotary vane 5222 has a straight surface 5222a protruding at right angles to the center axis of the rotary shaft 5221 when viewed from the upper side of the driving unit 5221, And an inclined surface 5222b projecting at an angle.

11, the rotary vane 5222 is formed by spirally winding a thin plate having a predetermined thickness on the rotary shaft 5221 so as to continuously contact the rotary body 5223 while the rotary vane 5222 rotates, Referring to FIG. 12, in another embodiment, each of the rotary blades 5222 has one inclined surface 5222b and one linear surface 5222a on 360 degrees of the rotation axis 5221 And has a disconnected region between neighboring rotating blades 5222. The disconnected region may be formed so that the rotating body 5223 can pass through without interference. This can be appropriately selected in consideration of the number of the rotating bodies 5223 or the thickness of the rotating shaft 5221 and the like.

The rotary vane 5222 may be formed by a single blade so as to guide the rotary motion of the rotary body 5223 as described later. Preferably, the rotary vane 5222 may include a plurality of blades, 5223, and by rotating the rotating body 5223 between the plurality of blades, the rotating body 5223 can be rotated more accurately.

The rotary vane 5222 rotates together with the rotary shaft 5221 to guide the rotary motion of the rotary body 5223. When the linear surface 5222a is in contact with the rotary body 5223 while rotating, When the inclined surface 5222b is in contact with the rotating body 5223, the rotating body 5223 is pivoted in an inclined direction, so that the rotating body 5223 is rotated. According to the combination of the straight surface 5222a and the inclined surface 5222b, the rotating body 5223 may rotate the unit of two units when the rotating blades 5222 make one rotation, And the time of the suction unit 51 in the stop state and the time in the rotation state may be adjusted according to the distance between the straight surface 5222a and the inclined surface 5222b.

14, the stopping state (d) in this specification means that the straight surface 5222a abuts on the rotating body 5223 so that the rotating body 5223 does not rotate, and the rotational force of the driving unit 52 Is not transmitted to the flushing arm 511 through the driving shaft 523 and therefore the flushing arm 511 stops in a state of being aligned with the inlet hole 331 to perform backwashing. The inclined surface 5222b is in contact with the rotating body 5223 so that the rotational force of the driving unit 52 is transmitted to the flushing arm 511 through the driving shaft 523 by the rotation of the rotating body 5223, Means that the arm 511 moves from the matching inlet 331 to the inlet 331 and is not backwashed.

At least two or more rotating blades 5222 are formed on the rotating shaft 5221 and the rotating body 5223 is sandwiched between adjacent rotating blades 5222 so that the rotating blades 5222 can rotate accurately and stably. The rotor 5223 can be rotated by guiding the rotor 5223 even though the rotating blades 5222 are formed on the rotating shaft 5221. However, as compared with the case where two or more blades are formed, It is not possible to accurately control the rotating blades 5223, so that the plurality of rotating blades 5222 are formed in the present invention.

When the half of the circumference of the rotating shaft 5221 is wound around the rotating blade 5222, a portion of the rotating blade 5222 that has a straight line A slope 5222b, and a straight surface 5222a, so that two slopes 5222b are formed along a circumference of 360 degrees. Therefore, at this time, when the rotary vane 5222 rotates one turn, the rotary body 5223 rotates by a distance of two units.

Referring to FIG. 13, the rotation of a unit distance in the present invention means that the inflow hole 331 of the lower plate 33 rotates by an angle formed by the other inflow hole 331 located immediately beside it. That is, the angle? When the rotating body 5223 rotates by one unit is controlled to be equal to the angle? At which the flushing arm 511 rotates the distance between the inflow holes 331. The number of divisions of the rotating body 5223 (the number of which the rotating bar 5223a is divided at a certain angle along the circumference of the rotating plate 5223b) must be equal to the number of the driving shaft 523 Is set to be equal to the number of the inflow holes 331 formed in one concentric circle centering on the center of the inlet holes 331.

The rotary vane 5222 of Fig. 11 will be described with reference to Fig. 14 (a). For convenience of explanation, it is assumed that the combination of the straight surface 5222a, the slope surface 5222b, and the straight surface 5222a is a rotary blade 5222 that occupies the circumference of the rotation axis 5221 equally by 60 degrees. When the rotary shaft 5221 rotates from 0 to 60 degrees, the linear surface 5222a abuts on the rotary body 5223, so that the rotary body 5223 does not rotate (stop state, d) The rotating body 5223 rotates by a unit distance (rotation state, e) at a point where the rotating body 5222b abuts against the rotating body 5220 at 60 to 120 degrees and 240 to 300 degrees.

The rotary vane 5222 may be formed in a spiral shape so as to cover only a part of the rotary shaft 5221. In this case, each of the rotary vanes 5222 may include one straight surface 5222a and one inclined surface 5222b . ≪ / RTI > Therefore, at this time, when the rotary vane 5222 rotates one turn, the rotary body 5223 rotates at a distance of one end.

The rotary vane 5222 of Fig. 12 will be described with reference to Fig. 14 (b). For convenience of explanation, it is assumed that the straight surface 5222a and the inclined surface 5222b occupy the circumference of the rotation axis 5221 by 90 degrees, and the remaining rotation angle of the rotation blade 5222 is 180 degrees. When the rotation shaft 5221 rotates from 0 to 90 degrees, the linear surface 5222a abuts against the rotation body 5223, so that the rotation body 5223 does not rotate (stop state, d) The rotating body 5223 rotates by a unit distance (rotation state, e) at 90 to 180 degrees at which the rotating blade 5222 abuts, and the rotating blade 5222 is disconnected from 180 to 360 degrees The rotating body 5223 does not rotate (stop state, d).

The rotating blades 5222 may include two embodiments as described above, so that the operator can select and apply the rotating blades 5222 according to the number of divisions of the rotating body 5223. [ The number of divisions of the rotating body 5223 should be set to be equal to or larger than the number of the inlet holes 331 formed through one concentric circle centering on the driving shaft 523, that is, the number of the filter elements 31 Since the thickness of the rotary shaft 5221 is limited due to restriction of space and the like, the length of the rotary blades 5222 formed along the rotary shaft 5221 is also limited. Therefore, The shape of the rotary vane 5222 can be selected.

The rotating blade 5222 rotates together with the rotating shaft 5221 so that the rectilinear surface 5222a and the inclined surface 5222b guide the rotating body 5223. When the rotating body 5223 rotates along the straight surface 5222a, The longer the time in which the suction unit 51 is in the stopped state. Therefore, by adjusting the length of the linear surface 5222a and the inclined surface 5222b by winding the rotation axis 5221, the time of the above-described stopping state is set longer and the time of the rotation state is set shorter, .

The rotary body 5223 is configured such that the rotary head 5223a-1 connected to the drive shaft 523 through the arm is divided at an angle along the circumference of the rotary plate 5223b, So that the rotational force of the rotating shaft 5221 is transmitted to the driving shaft 523. [ The rotating body 5223 includes a rotating bar 5223a and a rotating plate 5223b.

The rotating bar 5223a is configured to be in contact with the rotating blades 5222 and to be guided by the rotating blades 5222 and includes a rotating head 5223a-1 and an arm 5223a-2.

The rotation head 5223a-1 is located in a space between the rotation blades 5222 and is rotated about the drive shaft 523 by being guided by the rotation blades 5222. The rotation blades 5222a, It is preferable that the guide grooves are formed to have a constant size so as to be guided effectively by the guide grooves. When the rotary head 5223a-1 is in contact with the straight surface 5222a, the rotary blade 5222 does not interfere with the rotation, so that it does not rotate. However, when the rotary head 5223b is in contact with the slope surface 5222b, So that it is rotated in an oblique direction. Preferably, the rotary head 5223a-1 is guided by the rotary vane 5222 and rotates itself about the arm 5223a-2 to be easily guided by the rotary vane 5222 .

The arm 5223a-2 is configured to connect the rotating head 5223a-1 to the rotating plate 5223b so that the rotating plate 5223b can rotate together when the rotating head 5223a-1 rotates . When the arm 5223a-2 is formed to have the same thickness as the rotating head 5223a-1 and is connected to the rotating plate 5223b, the amount of the rotating body 5223 that can be installed at 360 degrees is reduced, .

The rotating plate 5223b is configured to rotate by receiving the rotating force of the rotating body 5223 by the arm 5223a-2. The driving shaft 523 is connected to the center of the rotating shaft 5223b so that the rotating plate 5223b rotates The drive shaft 523 rotates. Therefore, since the rotating body 5223 is connected to the suction unit 51 and the driving shaft 523, the rotating body 5223 and the suction unit 51 rotate synchronously. That is, as described above, in the present invention, the rotation angle of the rotating body 5223 is controlled to be equal to the rotation angle of the suction unit 51.

15, the driving shaft 523 is connected to the center of the rotating plate 5223b and rotates together with the rotating plate 5223b. The driving shaft 523 penetrates the inside of the housing 1 and the outside of the housing 1, And is connected to the flushing body 512 to transmit the power generated by the power unit 521 to the suction unit 51 as described above. The driving shaft 523 is connected to the flushing body 512 across the housing lower portion 122 and the backwash water c flows in the inlet pipe 514 surrounding the driving shaft 523, The center of the rotating plate 5223b and the center of the drive shaft 523 and the center of the flushing body 512 must be aligned in a straight line so that the power of the power unit 521 can be efficiently The center axis is deviated in the manufacturing process or the assembling process, and it is difficult to align the center of the assembling and repairing. Therefore, the drive shaft 523 of the present invention includes the first drive shaft 5231, the second drive shaft 5232, and the inter-shaft coupling member 5233, so that even if the central axes are not perfectly aligned and are shifted within a certain range, 52 to the suction unit 51 efficiently.

The first driving shaft 5231 has one side connected to the rotating plate 5223b and the other side passing through the bottom surface of the housing 1 and positioned inside the inlet pipe 514 of the lower housing 122 The second driving shaft 5232 is connected to the first driving shaft 5231 and the other is connected to the flushing body 512. The shaft coupling member 5233 is connected to the first driving shaft 5231, And the second driving shaft 5232 is connected to the first driving shaft 5231 and the second driving shaft 5232 by using the projections 5233a protruding in all directions from north to south, It is possible to smoothly rotate even though the central axis of the first drive shaft 5231 and the central axis of the second drive shaft 5232 do not perfectly coincide with each other and efficiently transmit the rotational force of the drive unit 52 to the suction unit 51 . Preferably, the drive shaft 523 may be a universal joint.

The suction unit (51) sucks backwash water containing foreign matter adhered to the filter unit (3). The suction unit 51 is connected to the driving unit 52 to be described later and is rotated by the driving force of the driving unit 52 to communicate with the respective filter elements 31 in a stationary state and a rotating state. 51 are much lower in pressure than the inside of the housing 1, so that the foreign matter adhered to the inner wall of the filter element 31 as a result of the filtration operation is dropped to the suction portion 51 by the differential pressure and the gravity. At this time, the filtered water b around the filter element 31 also flows into the filter element 31 by the differential pressure and is sucked into the suction part 51. This process is called backwashing and the backwash water c, To the outside. The suction unit 51 includes a flushing arm 511, a flushing body 512, a bushing 513, an inlet pipe 514, and a connection pipe 515.

The flushing arm 511 is formed at one end of the suction unit 51 and closely contacts the lower surface of the lower plate 33 and communicates with the filter element 31 to suck backwash water c. The backwash water c which is in turn communicated with the filter element 31 while rotating around the drive shaft 523 of the driving part 52 and contains foreign matter adhered to the inner wall of the filter element 31 by differential pressure, It is a cylindrical conduit inhaling. One end of the flushing arm 511 is connected to the flushing body 512 by being bent in the direction of the flushing body 512. Since the straight surface 5222a of the rotary vane 5222 is in contact with the rotating body 5223 and the rotating body 5223 does not rotate, the rotational force of the driving unit 52 is transmitted to the driving shaft 523 The rotating force of the driving unit 52 is not transmitted to the flushing arm 511 due to the rotation of the rotating body 5223 due to the contact between the rotating body 5223 and the inclined surface 5222b of the rotating blade 5222, Is transmitted to the flushing arm 511 through the driving shaft 523 and rotated by a distance of one unit so as to pass through the communicating filter element 31 to communicate with the filter element 31 adjacent thereto. Since the filter elements 31 are mounted on the inlet 331 of the lower plate 33 and are arranged at regular intervals on a concentric circle centering on the drive shaft 523, And may have the same number of flushing arms 511. Since the concentric circles have different diameters, the suction unit 51 also has flushing arms 511 having different lengths around the drive shaft 523. Therefore, the radius of the concentric circle and the length of the flushing arm 511 are formed to be the same.

The flushing arm 511 communicates with the respective filter elements 31 to receive the backwash water c when in a stopped state and rotates along a concentric circle to communicate with the next filter element 31 when in a rotating state, And the process of receiving the backwash water (c) is repeated. As will be described later, the time during the stop state and the time during the rotation state can be determined by the operator depending on the length of the straight surface 5222a and the inclined surface 5222b of the rotary vane 5222, It is preferable to make the time longer than the time when the stop state is the rotation state.

The flushing body 512 is configured to pass backwash water c sucked through the flushing arm 511 to be guided to the inlet pipe 514 and connected to the driving shaft 523 to transmit the rotational force to the flushing arm 511 A conduit is formed by communicating with the opposite end of the flushing arm 511 in which the filter element 31 is located and is fixed to the drive shaft 523 to transmit the rotational force of the drive shaft 523 to the flushing arm 511 .

Since the flushing body 512 is connected to the drive shaft 523 and rotates together with the drive shaft 523, the backwash water c introduced from the flushing body 512 is guided and stored temporarily 514 are fixed. When the inlet pipe 514 is rotated, the backwash water c in the inlet pipe 514 is leaked and mixed with the raw water a of the lower portion 122 of the housing. A bushing 513 is positioned between the flushing body 512 and the inlet pipe 514 to maintain the airtightness between the inlet pipe 514 and the flushing body 512.

16, the bushing 513 is configured to be fixed without rotating the draw pipe 514 without being affected by the rotation of the flushing body 512 connected to the drive shaft 523, A projection 5131, and a projection 5132.

The outer circumferential surface of the bushing body 5131 is in contact with the inner circumferential surface of the inlet pipe 514 and the inner circumferential surface of the bushing body 5131 is formed to have a short length that is in contact with the outer circumferential surface of the flushing body 512 And a projection 5132 protruding toward the outer side of the bushing body 5131 is formed at an upper side of the connection member. The protrusion 5132 is accommodated in the recessed groove 5141 so as to receive the protrusion 5132 at an angle equal to a predetermined angle at which the protrusion 5132 is formed in the inlet pipe 514, Is firmly coupled to the inlet pipe (514).

The outer surface of the bushing 513 is in close contact with the inlet pipe 514 and the inner circumferential surface of the bushing 513 is in close contact with the flushing body 512. Therefore, even if the flushing body 512 rotates, Do not rotate. The bushing 513 rotates at the inner surface of the bushing 513 while the flushing body 512 rotates and the backwashing water is discharged from the close contact portion of the inlet pipe 514, the bushing body 5131, (c) may be additionally included to prevent leakage.

 The hermetic member 5134 is positioned along the outer circumferential surface of the bushing body 5131 at a portion where the bushing body 5131 abuts the inlet pipe 514 and is connected to the bushing body 5131 and the inlet pipe 514 In order to prevent the backwash water (c) from leaking from the position, preferably an O-ring can be used.

The inlet pipe 514 is connected to the flushing body 512 by the bushing 513 and the other end is connected to the bottom plate of the housing 1 to receive the driving shaft 523 therein The flushing body 512 receives the backwash water c from the flushing body 512 and temporarily stores the flushing water c until the flushing body 512 exits the flushing body 512. The raw water a of the housing bottom 122 and the backwash water c are prevented from being mixed. The inlet pipe 514 may be welded to the lower inner wall surface of the housing 1.

The inlet pipe 514 may be coupled to the bushing 513 to be fixed by the bushing 513 without receiving the rotational force of the drive shaft 523. The inlet pipe 514 may be fixed to the bushing And a groove 5141 formed at the upper side of the drawing tube 514 at an angle equal to a predetermined angle at which the projection 5132 of the bushing 513 is formed so as to be coupled with the injection tube 514 to be coupled with the injection tube 514. The projection 5132 is received in the groove 5141 so that the bushing 513 is fixedly engaged with the inlet pipe 514 and the flushing body 512 is rotated on the inner surface of the bushing 513, The inlet pipe 514 can be maintained in a fixed state even if the body 512 rotates.

The connection pipe 515 is a short-length conduit protruding from one side of the inlet pipe 514 toward the outlet 53 and may be formed integrally with the inlet pipe 514 or may be formed as a separate conduit And may be connected to the inlet pipe 514. A discharge tube sealing member 532 to be described later may be positioned to prevent leakage of the backwash water c from the connection portion between the connection tube 515 and the discharge portion 53. [

17, the discharge unit 53 is configured to receive one side of the suction unit 51 and discharge the backwash water c sucked from the suction unit 51. The suction unit 51 And the backwash water c is discharged to the outside of the housing 1 through the side wall of the housing 1. The discharge portion 53 includes a discharge pipe 531 and a discharge pipe sealing member 532.

The discharge pipe 531 is a conduit through which the backwash water c flows and one side is connected to the connection pipe 515 and the other side is exposed to the outside of the housing 1 through the housing 1. When the backwash water (c) leaks from the connection portion between the discharge pipe (531) and the connection pipe (515), the raw water (a) stored in the lower housing portion 122 and the backwash water (c) So that the discharge tube sealing member 532 is positioned at the connecting portion.

The suction tube 51 and the discharge tube 53 are formed integrally with each other so that the discharge tube 531 is connected to the connection tube 515 in a detachable manner. There was a difficulty in inserting it into the inside. Therefore, in the present invention, the discharge pipe 531 is formed to be detachable from the suction unit 51 to facilitate assembly and repair.

The discharge tube sealing member 532 is located at a portion where the discharge tube 531 is connected to the connection tube 515 and is located along the outer peripheral surface of the discharge tube 531, Thereby preventing the backwash water c from leaking. Preferably, an O-ring or the like may be used.

18 and 19, the hermetic portion 54 prevents the backwash water c introduced through the suction portion 51 from leaking to the outside of the housing 1 along the drive shaft 523 And is preferably fixed to the bottom surface of the housing 1 around the driving shaft 523 to prevent the backwash water c from flowing out of the housing 1 along the driving shaft 523. [ The airtight portion 54 includes a rotor 541, a stator 542, a support plate 543, a bearing 543a, a lower cover 544, a lower core 547, a lock member 545, ).

The rotor 541 surrounds the drive shaft 523 and is fixed to the drive shaft 523 and rotates together with the rotor 541. The rotor 541 is rotated downward by the restoring force of the spring S provided at the recessed portion, A rotor peristaltic ring 5412 which is brought into close contact with the stator 542 by a pressure of the rotor packing 5411 in close contact with the stator 542 and a spring S And a rotor case 5414 surrounding the rotor packing 5411 and the rotor perturbation ring 5412. The capping plate 5413 includes a cap plate 5413 for transferring the restoring force of the rotor packing 5411 to the lower portion of the rotor packing 5411,

The rotor packing 5411 is configured to press down the rotor perturbation ring 5412 downward by the restoring force of the spring S provided in the recessed portion. The driving shaft 523 is connected to the driving shaft 523a having a large diameter by forming a tapered supporting step 523c at right angles in the horizontal direction at a portion where the drive shaft 523b of a narrow diameter is in close contact with the upper surface of the rotor packing 5411 The upper surface of the rotor packing 5411 is vertically contacted with the jaw of the drive shaft 523 so that the upper surface of the rotor packing 5411 supports the lower surface of the drive shaft 523a of a larger diameter, And the axial direction inner peripheral surface is in close contact with the driving shaft 523b having a narrow diameter. The shape of the rotor packing 5411 as described above is such that the upward pressure of the spring transmitted through the rotor case 5414 is transmitted to the drive shaft 523a having a large diameter to support the rotor 541 by the reaction force And fixes and fixes the rotor 541 to the drive shaft 523b of a narrow diameter.

The rotor packing 5411 has a vertically sectioned depressed portion that is opened outward. When the cap plate 5413 is seated, the spring S holding the restoring energy is seated on the depressed portion.

The rotor peristaltic ring 5412 is in close contact with the stator 542 due to the pressure of the rotor packing 5411 so that the rotor peristaltic ring 5412 is in close contact with the stator 542. Preferably, And the cap plate 5413 tightly surrounds the close contact portion with the lower surface of the rotor packing 5411 and forms the interference surface with the stator 542. Although there is a very fine gap on the surface where the stator 542 and the rotor 541 are brought into contact with each other, moisture is generated in the gap between the stator 542 and the rotor 541. Also, even when the interference surface is worn, the rotor packing 5411 is extended downward by the restoring force of the spring S, and the entire length of the rotor 541 is restored, so that the gap of the interference surface is kept constant. The rotor packing 5411, the spring S, the cap plate 5413 and the rotor perturbation ring 5412 are sealed again by the rotor case 5414 to prevent water from being introduced into the interior.

The lower surface of the stator 542 is in close contact with the upper surface of the support plate 543, and preferably the upper surface of the stator 542 is fixed to the lower surface of the support plate 543. Preferably, And can be received and fixed in a recess formed in a shape complementary to the horizontal cross section of the stator 542 from the upper surface of the support plate 543 downward. Accordingly, the stator 542 is fixed to the support plate 543 and fixed to the drive shaft 523 without rotating.

The support plate 543 fixes the stator 542 and prevents the backwash water c in the inlet pipe 514 from leaking to the outside of the housing 1, Unlike the rotor 541, the stator 542 needs to be firmly fixed, so that the stator 542 is fixed through the support plate 543 in order to avoid the influence. A bearing 543a (see FIG. 18) may be added to the inside of the support plate 543 to prevent the rotational force from being reduced by the support plate 543 when the drive shaft 523 rotates.

The lower cover 544 is formed thicker than the thickness of the housing body 12 at a portion where the driving shaft 523 is inserted through the housing 1 to fix the components of the hermetic portion 54 And includes a lower cover upper portion 544a and a lower cover lower portion 544b.

The lower cover upper portion 544a is formed in a shape such that its central portion is complementary to the outer shape of the support plate 543 so that the support plate 543 can be received and screwed into the lower cover upper portion 544a And a hermetic member 548 for preventing leakage of the backwash water c may be positioned at the connection portion with the support plate 543 (see FIG. 18).

The lower cover lower portion 544b is configured to be screwed with the lower cover upper portion 544a at a lower side of the lower cover upper portion 544a and a certain space is formed between the lower cover upper portion 544a and the lower cover upper portion 544a, So that the lower core 547 can be positioned.

The position setting hole 323 is formed such that a part of the insertion hole 321 is formed to be larger than the insertion hole 321 so that a positioning mechanism 7 to be described later can be introduced into the filter portion 3 And is covered by the lid 325. As shown in Fig. Preferably, one of the insertion holes 321 formed in the concentric circles of the insertion holes 321 formed along the concentric circles having different diameters may be formed by the positioning holes 323.

24, after assembling all the components of the filtration apparatus, the lid 325 is opened and the filter element 31 is taken out through the positioning hole 323, and the positioning hole 323 The position setting mechanism 7 is inserted.

The positioning mechanism 7 includes a handle 71 inserted from the upper side of the housing 1 and elongated to a length enough to pass through the filter unit 3 and a handle 71 formed at one end of the handle 71 An insert portion 72 having the same profile as the profile of the inner wall surface of the inflow hole 331 and the flushing arm 511 and a protrusion portion 72 protruding outward from a connection portion between the handle 71 and the insert portion 72, And a stopper 73 formed to be wider than the width of the inflow hole 331 to limit the degree of insertion of the insert portion 72.

Referring to FIG. 26, in this specification, the term " matching " means that a hole opened on the upper surface of the flushing arm 511 is positioned so as to completely cover the inflow hole 331. [ When the above process is completed, the filter element 31 is seated again, the lid 325 is covered, and then the housing cover 15 is coupled to complete the assembly of the filtration device. As a result, the flushing arm 511 and the lower surface of the filter element 31 are matched to each other, thereby improving the backwashing efficiency. As described later, the flushing arm 511 is rotated by the driving unit 52, It becomes possible to exactly match the inlet hole 331 adjacent to the inlet hole 331 when moving from one inlet hole 331 to the adjacent inlet hole 331.

The lower plate 33 is configured to receive the lower cap 315 of the filter element 31 and to separate the housing 1 into a housing upper portion 121 and a lower housing portion 122, B of the housing upper portion 121 and the raw water a of the housing lower portion 122 from being mixed in the housing 1. [ 9, the lower plate 33 is firmly fixed in the housing 1 because the lower surface of the lower plate 33 is in contact with the side surface of the pressure contact projection 124, and the lower plate sealing member 335 completely fills the housing upper portion 121 Remove housing bottom 122. The lower plate 33 includes an inflow hole 331, a receiving groove 333, and a lower plate sealing member 335.

The inflow hole 331 is formed in the housing lower portion 122 through the inflow hole 331 The raw water (a) to be stored is introduced into the filter element (31). However, the filtered water b which is not stored in the filter element 31 can not be introduced into the inflow hole 331 communicated with the flushing arm 511 by the flushing arm 511, The backwashing water c flows out from the backside of the filter element 31 by backwashing.

The raw water a is filtered only through the filter element 31 through the inflow hole 331 and the filtered water b is filtered through the inflow hole 331. Therefore, When the suction unit 51 to be described later rotates about the drive shaft 523 and communicates with one inlet hole 331 and the filter element 31 on each concentric path while flowing through the housing upper part 121, (31) and is discharged through the suction unit (51) while performing backwashing.

9, the receiving groove 333 is a groove that is drawn in the circumferential direction along the side surface of the lower plate 33. The lower plate sealing member 335 is fitted into the receiving groove 333, The filtration water b stored in the housing upper portion 121 and the raw water a stored in the housing lower portion 122 are not mixed with each other.

The support member 34 supports the upper plate 32 and the lower plate 33 (refer to FIG. 20). Since the filter element 31 alone may be difficult to withstand the pressure applied to the filter unit 3, The skeleton of the filter unit 3 is firmly formed by joining the supporter 34 between the upper plate 32 and the lower plate 33 so as to bear the pressure and at the same time the insertion hole 321 of the upper plate 32, The center of the inflow hole 331 of the lower plate 33 and the center of the filter plate 31 can be prevented from being displaced from the predetermined position.

27, the buffer 35 is fixed to the upper plate 32 to relieve vibrations and shock transmitted from the housing cover 15 to the filter unit 3, and includes a pressing member 351 ), Elastic means (353), and support member (355). In the conventional filtration device, since the housing cover 15 and the upper plate 32 are in direct contact with each other, the external impact is transferred to the filter as it is, and the internal structure of the housing 1 is broken, Often occurred. Further, if the upper plate 32 is made thick, the cavity of the housing body 12 and the housing lid 15 may be widened to cause leakage of the filtered water. If the upper plate 32 is thinned, there was. Therefore, in the present invention, it is not necessary to increase the thickness of the upper plate 32 for durability by providing the buffering portion 35 including the elastic means 353 between the housing lid 15 and the upper plate 32, Even if the upper plate 32 is made somewhat thinner, impact and vibration can be absorbed and alleviated through the buffering portion 35.

The urging member 351 is configured to directly abut the lower surface of the housing lid 15 and is urged downward by impact and vibration transmitted from the housing lid 15 and is urged backward by the elastic force of the elastic means 353 And is raised upward. (Pressure) acting between the housing cover 15 and the elastic means 353. The pressing member 351 includes a head 351a, a step 351b, and a body 351c.

The head 351a is configured to abut the lower surface of the housing cover 15 and the step 351b has a structure in which the elastic means 353 abuts against the lower surface thereof to support the elastic means 353 And the body 351c is inserted into the space formed by the elastic means 353 so that the pressing member 351 can be engaged with the elastic means 353. [

The elastic means 353 accommodates the pressing member 351 and absorbs the vibration transmitted by the pressing member 351, and preferably a spring can be used.

The supporting member 355 receives the pressing member 351 and the elastic means 353 and is configured to be able to be fixed to the upper plate 32. The upper case 355a and the lower case 355b And a case 355b. The upper case 355a may be inserted into an upper side of the upper plate 32 to be seated in a groove formed in the upper plate 32 and the lower case 355b may be formed in a lower side of the upper plate 32 And may be formed to be threadably engaged with the upper case 355a.

The cushioning part 35 first inserts the upper case 355a into the upper plate 32 and then inserts the pressing member 351 into the lower side of the upper case 355a and presses the body 351c The upper case 355a is tightly coupled to the upper plate 32 by threadably coupling the lower case 355b to the upper case 355a. Therefore, when the housing lid 15 presses the pressing member 351, the elastic means 353 located below the pressing member 351 is pressed downward. Since the lower surface of the elastic means 353 is supported by the support member 355, the pressing member 351 is pushed upward by the elastic force of the elastic means 353 so that the pressure by the housing lid 15 can be canceled do.

The above-described filtration apparatus according to the present invention employs a structure in which a conventional filtration apparatus can be easily assembled to overcome the disadvantage that the structure is complicated and difficult to assemble. However, due to the structural problems of the filtration device, a description of such components as simply added or coupled may be omitted for the sake of convenience.

The filtration apparatus comprises a housing 1 having an inlet 11 and an outlet 14 through which the ballast water can flow in and out of the vessel and constitutes the body of the filtering apparatus, A hermetic portion 54 for preventing the backwash water c from flowing out of the housing 1 along the driving shaft 523 by inserting the driving shaft 523 therethrough; And a filter unit (3) located inside the housing (1) and filtering the raw water (a) introduced through the inlet (11), wherein the automatic washing unit (5) (5) comprises a suction unit (51) which is located inside the housing (1) and sucks backwash water containing foreign matters adhered to the filter unit (3) from below the filter unit (3) A driving unit 52 located at a lower portion of the housing 1 and rotating the suction unit 51 mechanically, And a discharge unit 53 for receiving one side of the suction unit 51 and discharging the backwash water c sucked from the suction unit 51 to the outside of the housing 1.

First, since the driving shaft 523 penetrates the inside and the outside of the housing 1 from the bottom surface of the housing 1 as described above, it is necessary to prevent the backwash water (c) from flowing out have. Therefore, the driving shaft 523 is coupled from the upper surface of the housing 1 through the supporting plate 543 after the supporting plate 543 is screwed. At this time, the drive shaft 523 is in a state where the first drive shaft 5231 and the second drive shaft 5232 are coupled by the shaft coupling member 5233. And the airtight portion 54 is engaged with the driving shaft 523b of a narrow diameter. Since the lock member 545 is screwed to the surface of the drive shaft 523 which is exposed through the support plate 543 and exposed to the outside of the housing 1, It can be grasped exactly.

Secondly, the drive shaft 523 is coupled to the center of the rotary plate 5223b so that the drive shaft 523 can transmit the power generated by the power means 521 to the suction unit 51, and the rotary blades 5222 And the rotating body 5223 are brought into contact with each other, and then the rotating shaft 5221 and the power means 521 are connected. Therefore, the power produced by the power means 521 is transmitted to the drive shaft 523 through the rotating shaft 5221, the rotating blades 5222, the rotating body 5223, the arm 5223a-2, and the rotating plate 5223b.

Third, the driving shaft 523 and the suction unit 51 are connected. The inlet pipe 514 is positioned to surround the drive shaft 523 and the flushing body 512 is connected to the inlet pipe 514. The bushing 513 is positioned to prevent the backwash water c from leaking from the connecting portion between the inlet pipe 514 and the flushing body 512. The bushing 513 protrudes from the bushing body 5131, The formed projection 5132 is seated in the groove 5141 of the draw pipe 514 and packed to enclose the bushing 513 and the draw pipe 514. Therefore, even if the driving shaft 523 and the flushing body 512 rotate, the inlet pipe 514 can be fixed without rotating, and the backwash water c can be prevented from leaking. The discharge unit 53 is connected to the connection pipe 515 protruding from one side of the inlet pipe 514. At this time, a drain pipe sealing member 532 is disposed at a joint portion between the discharge pipe 531 and the connection pipe 515 to prevent leakage of the backwash water c.

Fourth, the filter unit 3 is positioned on the housing upper part 121 above the suction unit 51. The filter unit 3 seats the filter element 31 on the inflow hole 331 of the lower plate 33 and joins the upper plate 32 together with the support stand 34. The filter element 31 is completed by fixing the mesh net 317 to the frame 311 and fixing the mesh net 317 to the upper and lower caps 313 and 315. A lower plate sealing member 335 is coupled to the receiving groove 333 of the lower plate 33 to completely separate the upper housing part 121 and the lower housing part 122 from each other. Since the side surface of the lower plate 33 is pressed by the pressure contact protrusion 124 of the housing 1 and the upper plate 32 is seated in the latching protrusion 123 of the housing 1, (3) can be positioned exactly where it should be located. At this time, the lower surface of the lower plate 33 and the flushing arm 511 are brought into close contact with each other. Also, the shock absorber 35 may be coupled to the upper plate 32 to mitigate or cancel external shocks and vibrations transmitted from the housing lid 15 to be coupled in the following process.

Finally, the lid 325 covering the positioning hole 323 of the upper plate 32 is removed and the filter element 31 provided in the positioning hole 323 is once removed, The setting mechanism 7 is inserted so that the flushing arm 511 and the inflow hole 331 are aligned with each other. Since the suction unit 51 also rotates by one unit when the rotating body 5223 rotates by one unit in the filtration apparatus, the initial start position must match the flushing arm 511 and the inlet hole 331, The arm 511 can be matched with exactly the other inflow holes 331 in the subsequent process. The filter element 31 is joined again and the housing cover 15 is screwed to cover the cover 325 and cover the top plate 32 to complete the assembly of the filtration apparatus.

The process of filtration and backwashing using the filtration apparatus of the present invention will be described in detail. The assembly is completed through the above-described process.

The raw water a is introduced into the inlet portion 11 through the cylindrical lower portion 122 of the housing 122 to fill the lower portion 122 of the housing with a sufficient water pressure to reach the vicinity of the lower plate 33, And enters the filter element 31 through the inflow hole 331 of the lower plate 33 by a pressure difference.

The raw water a that has entered the filter element 31 passes through the mesh net 317 and is filtered to be filtered water b to be stored in the housing upper part 121. The filtered water b which is filled with the upper part 121 of the housing and flows upward flows out of the housing 1 through the outlet part 14 formed on one side of the housing upper part 121, do.

The raw water a passes through the filter element 31 and foreign matter is filtered and foreign substances gradually get caught in the mesh net 317. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously clean the filter element 31 to improve filtration efficiency. Therefore, backwashing is performed.

The flushing arm 511, the inflow hole 331 and the filter element 31 are matched at an initial starting point and the pressure of the suction portion 51 and the discharge portion 53 is much higher than that of the inside of the housing 1 The foreign matter adhering to the inner wall of the filter element 31 as a result of filtration operation is dropped to the suction part 51 by the differential pressure and the gravity. That is, the filtered water b flowing through the housing upper portion 121 flows into the filter element 31 communicating with the suction portion 51 and the discharge portion 53 through the inlet hole 331, As shown in Fig. As a result, the backwash water (c) containing the foreign substances is discharged to the outside of the housing (1) through the suction part (51) and the discharge part (53).

As described above, the flushing arm 511 rotates together with the driving unit 52 according to the rotation of the driving unit 52, and backs up the plurality of filter elements 31 in the filtration apparatus for a predetermined time. The power produced by the power means 521 rotates the rotating shaft 5221 and the rotating blades 5222 coupled to the rotating shaft 5221 guide the rotating body 5223 to rotate the driving shaft 523, And this process is as described above. The flushing arm 511 rotates so as to communicate with the filter element 31 adjacent thereto from the backwashing filter element 31 and repeats the backwashing process.

 According to the present invention, when the flushing arm 511 rotates between the filter elements 31 disposed on the concentric path, the rotational force of the power means 521 is not directly transmitted to the flushing arm 511, The rotation distance of the flushing arm 511 can be accurately controlled.

The rotary vane 5222 includes a straight surface 5222a and an inclined surface 5222b so that when the straight surface 5222a is in contact with the rotating body 5223, a rotational force is not transmitted to the flushing arm 511 When the inclined surface 5222b is in contact with the rotating body 5223, a rotational force is transmitted to the flushing arm 511 so that the adjacent filter element 513 is rotated. The length of the straight surface 5222a and the inclined surface 5222b can be used to effect backwashing by adjusting the time of the stop state and the rotation state.

Since the driving shaft 523 includes the first driving shaft 5231, the second driving shaft 5232 and the shaft coupling member 5233, the centers of the first driving shaft 5231 and the second driving shaft 5232 perfectly match The rotational force of the driving unit 52 can be transmitted to the suction unit 51. [

The filtration apparatus also includes a filtering unit 3, an automatic washing unit 5, and components for sealing the coupling parts of the respective components, so that raw water a, b) and the backwash water (c) were not mixed with each other.
