Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of drainers, in particular to a rubber membrane sealed bottom plate drainer special for gas cabinets. Background Art
[0002] Rubber membrane-sealed gasholders are widely used gas storage devices in the steel and metallurgical industries. During normal operation, these gasholders generate a large amount of condensed water inside the piston. Conventional technology drains this condensed water through drain holes distributed uniformly around the outer ring of the baseplate, where it flows into a drainer installed in a water reservoir outside the gasholder. However, conventional drainers have the following drawbacks:
[0003] 1. The drainer body is located low and close to the bottom of the water pool. When the drainer is draining normally, the drainer body is immersed in condensate. Gas condensate is highly corrosive. If the drainer body is immersed in corrosive condensate for a long time, it is prone to corrosion and perforation, shortening the drainer life and leading to the risk of gas leakage.
[0004] 2. The drainer body is located low and close to the bottom of the water pool, which causes great inconvenience to the drainer cleaning work. The cleaned sludge is all deposited around the drainer body, shortening the life of the drainer and increasing the difficulty of cleaning. Personnel need to enter the pool to operate, which is inefficient and poses a safety hazard.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a rubber membrane sealed gas cabinet special bottom plate drainer to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In order to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a rubber membrane sealed gas cabinet dedicated bottom plate drainer.

[0022] As a further improvement of the present invention, the bottom of the drain body is provided with an inclined flow-guiding structure, and the drain valve is connected to the lower portion of the inclined flow-guiding structure. By providing the inclined flow-guiding structure at the bottom of the drain body and connecting the drain valve to the lower portion of the inclined flow-guiding structure, sludge is easily discharged through the drain valve.
[0023] As a further improvement of the present invention: the height of the U-shaped tube is calculated using the following formula:
[0024] Formula 1: H ≥ H0
