[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0022] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides an integrated tubular heat exchanger, comprising a shell 1, on which a hot fluid inlet pipe 2, a cold fluid inlet pipe 3 and corresponding hot fluid outlet pipes 4 and cold fluid outlet pipes 5 are provided.

[0023] Specifically, the housing 1 includes a cylinder 11 and a first cylinder cover 12 and a second cylinder cover 13 detachably mounted at both ends of the cylinder 11, the hot fluid inlet pipe 2 and the cold fluid outlet pipe 5 are arranged on the first cylinder cover 12, and the hot fluid outlet pipe 4 and the cold fluid inlet pipe 3 are arranged on the second cylinder cover 13. Through the detachable design, it is convenient to overhaul, maintain or replace the components at various positions in the housing 1. In this embodiment, the hot fluid inlet pipe 2 and the cold fluid outlet pipe 5 are located below the first cylinder cover 12, and the hot fluid outlet pipe 4 and the cold fluid inlet pipe 3 are located above the second cylinder cover 13.

[0024] A heat exchange pipe assembly (not shown in the figure), a driving mechanism 14 and an ultrasonic generator 15 are provided in the shell 1; the heat exchange pipe assembly includes a plurality of groups of first heat exchange pipes 16 and second heat exchange pipes 17; both ends of the first heat exchange pipe 16 are respectively connected to the hot fluid inlet pipe 2 and the hot fluid outlet pipe 4, and both ends of the second heat exchange pipe 17 are respectively connected to the cold fluid inlet pipe 3 and the cold fluid outlet pipe 5.

[0025] The utility model provides an integrated tubular heat exchanger which adopts a double-tube-pass design, thereby preventing the fluid in the shell-pass from affecting the inside of the shell, and having a lower requirement on the sealing performance of the shell 1.

[0026] When the heat exchanger is working, the hot fluid flows in through the hot fluid inlet pipe 2 below the first tube cover 12, flows through a plurality of first heat exchange pipes 16, and flows out from the hot fluid outlet pipe 4 above the second tube cover 13; while the cold fluid flows in through the cold fluid inlet pipe 3 above the second tube cover 13, flows through a plurality of second heat exchange pipes 17, and flows out from the cold fluid outlet pipe 5 below the second tube cover 13; when the cold fluid flows through the second heat exchange pipe 17, it absorbs and exchanges the heat of the hot fluid in the first heat exchange pipe 16 through the pipe wall, so that the outflowing cold fluid has a certain amount of heat, realizing the transfer of fluid heat, and realizing full utilization of heat.

[0027] The hot fluid inlet pipe 2 and the cold fluid inlet pipe 3 are both provided with a dosing pipe 6, and the dosing pipe 6 is provided with a regulating valve 7. Through the dosing pipe 6, a solid or liquid descaling agent can be added to the first heat exchange pipe 16 or the second heat exchange pipe 17, thereby treating the scale layer and impurities attached to the inner wall of the first heat exchange pipe 16 or the second heat exchange pipe 17. By adjusting the valve opening of the regulating valve 7, the speed and amount of adding the agent in the dosing pipe 6 can be controlled.

[0028] In this embodiment, the descaling agent is in liquid form. The dosing pipe 6 is connected to a dosing pump (not shown in the figure), and the dosing pump is connected to a liquid medicine storage tank containing descaling cleaning liquid. Through the action of the dosing pump, the descaling cleaning liquid is extracted from the liquid medicine storage tank and transported to the hot fluid inlet pipe 2 and the cold fluid inlet pipe 3 through the dosing pipe 6, so that the descaling cleaning liquid chemically reacts with the scale layer and impurities attached to the inner wall of the first heat exchange pipe 16 or the second heat exchange pipe 17 to remove the dirt in the pipe. And by adjusting the opening of the regulating valve 7, the amount of descaling cleaning liquid put into the pipe can be accurately controlled.

[0029] At least one slide bar 18 is provided along the inner wall of the shell 1 in the horizontal direction, and a moving seat 19 is slidably connected to each slide bar 18, and at least one ultrasonic transducer 20 is installed on each moving seat 19; the ultrasonic generator 15 is connected to the ultrasonic transducer 20 through a transmission cable (not shown in the figure), and the radiating surface 20 of the ultrasonic transducer is facing the heat exchange pipe assembly; the driving mechanism 14 is used to drive the moving seat 19 to move back and forth horizontally along the slide bar 18, driving the ultrasonic transducer 20 to move back and forth horizontally. Among them, the ultrasonic generator can generate ultrasonic waves of different frequencies and powers, and the frequency and power of the ultrasonic waves can be adjusted according to actual use requirements. In this embodiment, a total of four slide bars 18 are provided, and the four slide bars are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the shell 1, and each slide bar 18 is slidably connected to each moving seat 19, and an ultrasonic transducer 20 is installed on the moving seat 19, thereby realizing that the ultrasonic generator 15 cooperates with the ultrasonic transducer 20 to emit ultrasonic waves to fully cover the heat exchange pipe assembly.

[0030] When the inner wall of the first heat exchange pipe 16 or the second heat exchange pipe 17 needs to be descaled, after the ultrasonic generator 15 is turned on to generate ultrasonic waves, the ultrasonic waves will be transmitted to the first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17 on the radiation surface of the ultrasonic transducer 20 through the ultrasonic transmission cable 21. The ultrasonic waves will cause bubbles to be generated in the fluid in the first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17. The shock waves generated by the bubbles will effectively impact and break the scale layer and impurities on the inner wall of the first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17, thereby achieving the descaling of the inner wall of the first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17, preventing the accumulation of scale layers and impurities from corroding and damaging the pipes, which helps to improve the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger, reduce energy consumption, improve the operating efficiency of the entire heat exchanger and extend the service life of the heat exchanger.

[0031] The hot fluid inlet pipe 2 and the cold fluid inlet pipe 3 can be detachably mounted with a filter 8, and the filter 8 is filled with an activated carbon layer (not shown in the figure). Through the filtering effect of the filter 8, large particles of impurities in the incoming fluid can be removed, and these impurities are prevented from entering the first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17 to accumulate and form a scale layer, which can effectively slow down the accumulation speed of the scale layer in the first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17. The activated carbon layer has a strong adsorption capacity and can adsorb some impurities and odors in the fluid.

[0032] A flow meter (not shown in the figure) for detecting the fluid flow is provided in the hot fluid outlet pipe 4 and the cold fluid outlet pipe 3. By detecting the change of the fluid outflow flow rate of the hot fluid outlet pipe 4 and the cold fluid outlet pipe 3, when the outflow flow rate is low, the filter 8 can be replaced or descaled by checking whether the filter 8 is partially blocked or whether the inner wall of the first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17 has too much scale accumulated, resulting in a decrease in the fluid flow rate.

[0033] The first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17 are evenly distributed in the shell 1. The even distribution of the pipes in the shell 1 ensures that the fluid can evenly exchange heat when flowing through these pipes. This can avoid overheating or overcooling in certain areas, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the entire system. At the same time, a number of fins 9 are provided between the adjacent first heat exchange pipes 16 and second heat exchange pipes 17. The addition of fins 9 greatly increases the contact area between the fluid and the pipe, thereby improving the efficiency of heat exchange. When the ultrasonic generator 15 is used in conjunction with the ultrasonic transducer 20 to emit ultrasonic waves, the ultrasonic waves can shake off the dust attached to the fins 9, thereby preventing dust from being blocked between the fins 9 and affecting the heat dissipation of the fins 9.

[0034] The first heat exchange pipe 16 and the second heat exchange pipe 17 are connected with the hot fluid inlet pipe 2, the cold fluid inlet pipe 3, the hot fluid outlet pipe 4 and the cold fluid outlet pipe 5, respectively, and are provided with sealing rubber rings (not shown in the figure) to ensure the sealing of the pipe connection. The hot fluid inlet pipe 2, the cold fluid inlet pipe 3, the hot fluid outlet pipe 4 and the cold fluid outlet pipe 5 are provided with electromagnetic valves (not shown in the figure), and the fluid inflow flow of each pipe is controlled by controlling the opening and closing degree of the electromagnetic valves.

[0035] A support mechanism 10 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, and the support mechanism 10 includes a plurality of support brackets 101 fixed to the outer wall of the housing 1, and a shock-absorbing pad is provided between the contact surface of the support bracket 101 and the outer wall of the housing. The shock-absorbing pad is used to reduce the vibration amplitude of the housing 1 when it is affected by the outside world or vibrates due to ultrasonic descaling, so as to avoid damage to the internal components.

[0036] In this embodiment, the contact surface between the support bracket 101 and the outer wall of the shell 1 is adapted to the shape of the outer wall of the shell 1 .

[0037] The above description is only an embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
