Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air compressor technology, specifically to an energy-saving air compressor. Background Technology

[0002] Air compressors are a common type of industrial equipment widely used in many fields, such as machinery manufacturing, chemical industry, food processing, and electronics. Their main function is to compress air into a gas with a certain pressure, providing power support for various pneumatic equipment and processes.

[0003] The intake filter is an indispensable and important component of an air compressor. Its main function is to filter the air entering the air compressor, removing dust, impurities, particulate matter and other pollutants to ensure the quality of the air entering the air compressor, thereby protecting the internal components of the air compressor, extending their service life, and improving the quality of compressed air to meet the needs of different production processes.

[0004] However, existing air compressor intake filtration devices have some shortcomings in actual use:

[0005] Traditional air intake filters accumulate a large amount of dust and impurities on the filter surface after a period of use, leading to a significant increase in intake resistance. To overcome this resistance and allow sufficient air to enter the air compressor, the compressor needs to consume more energy to increase the intake pressure, thus increasing energy consumption. Statistics show that for every 1 kPa increase in intake resistance, the air compressor's energy consumption increases by approximately 0.5% to 1%. Under long-term continuous operation, this will result in a substantial increase in the company's energy costs.

[0006] Most current air intake filters require regular manual cleaning and maintenance. The complex structure of these filters and the cumbersome disassembly and installation processes make cleaning difficult. Furthermore, the frequency and effectiveness of manual cleaning are affected by the operator's skill level and sense of responsibility, making it difficult to guarantee ideal results every time.

[0007] If the filter is not cleaned in a timely manner, the filtration effect will gradually decrease as dust and impurities accumulate on the filter element surface. This will not only affect the quality of compressed air but also further increase intake resistance, leading to increased energy consumption of the air compressor. Furthermore, long-term accumulation of impurities may damage the filter, shorten its lifespan, and increase the company's equipment replacement costs.

[0008] In summary, existing air compressor intake filtration devices have many problems in terms of energy consumption, cleaning and maintenance, and filtration effect. There is an urgent need to develop an energy-saving and self-cleaning intake filtration device to improve the operating efficiency of air compressors, reduce energy consumption, reduce maintenance costs, and ensure the quality of compressed air. Utility Model Content

[0009] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention presents an energy-saving air compressor.

[0010] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0011] An energy-saving air compressor includes a fixed base, a threaded groove is formed on the lower end face of the fixed base, a fixed groove is formed on the inner top wall of the threaded groove, a brushing mechanism is rotatably connected to the inner top wall of the fixed groove, and one end of an air inlet pipe is provided on the side wall of the fixed base, and the air inlet pipe is connected to the inner cavity of the fixed groove.

[0012] The outer casing has a fixed seat on its top wall, and the fixed seat is threadedly connected to the threaded groove. An exhaust pipe is rotatably connected to one end of the bottom wall of the outer casing via a sealed bearing.

[0013] The filter cartridge has a top seat on its top wall, which is threadedly connected to a fixing groove. The filter cartridge also has a base on its bottom wall, and a connecting seat is threadedly connected to the bottom wall of the base.

[0014] Furthermore, the painting mechanism includes a rotating rod, the top wall of which is rotatably connected to the inner top wall of the fixed groove via a bearing, a blade is interference-fitted to the top of the outer wall of the rotating rod, and a brush is provided at the bottom of the outer wall of the rotating rod.

[0015] Furthermore, the outer ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the fixing groove through the bearing seat, and the inner ring of the bearing is interference-fitted with the outer wall of the rotating rod.

[0016] Furthermore, the brush is placed inside the filter cartridge.

[0017] Furthermore, the blade is on the same horizontal plane as the intake pipe and is positioned to the right of the intake pipe.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] The air intake filter of this invention can perform self-cleaning operation while filtering air. This effectively prevents the problem of significantly increased air intake resistance caused by the accumulation of dust and impurities on the filter element surface. This means that the air compressor does not need to consume too much energy to overcome the air intake resistance, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the air compressor.

[0020] This device automatically cleans itself during the air intake process and can maintain a good filtration state in real time according to the actual air intake conditions. It does not require additional energy consumption to deal with the problem of impurity accumulation, and truly achieves efficient operation on demand, further improving energy utilization efficiency.

[0021] This device uses air to blow blades that drive the brushes to rotate, achieving self-cleaning of the filter cartridge. It eliminates the need for manual, periodic, and complex disassembly and reassembly for cleaning the filter element. This not only saves a significant amount of manpower and time but also avoids the problem of poor cleaning results caused by the tedious manual cleaning process and differences in operator skill levels and sense of responsibility, ensuring that the filtration device is always in good working condition.

[0029] See Figure 1-3 As shown, an energy-saving air compressor includes a fixed base 1, a threaded groove 2 is provided on the lower end face of the fixed base 1, a fixed groove 3 is provided on the inner top wall of the threaded groove 2, a brushing mechanism is rotatably connected to the inner top wall of the fixed groove 3, and one end of an air inlet pipe 4 is provided on the side wall of the fixed base 1, and the air inlet pipe 4 is connected to the inner cavity of the fixed groove 3.

[0032] Furthermore, the brushing mechanism includes a rotating rod 12. The top wall of the rotating rod 12 is rotatably connected to the inner top wall of the fixed groove 3 via a bearing. The top of the outer wall of the rotating rod 12 is interference-fitted with a blade 13. The bottom of the outer wall of the rotating rod 12 is provided with a brush 14. When air enters the fixed groove 3, it blows the blade 13 to drive the rotating rod 12 and the brush 14 to rotate. The brush 14 rotates to brush the inner wall of the filter cartridge 8, brushing off the impurities filtered from the inner wall of the filter cartridge 8 and letting them fall down into the connecting seat 11 for collection.

[0033] Furthermore, the outer ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the fixed groove 3 through the bearing seat, and the inner ring of the bearing is interference-fitted with the outer wall of the rotating rod 12.

[0035] Furthermore, the blade 13 is on the same horizontal plane as the air intake pipe 4 and is positioned to the right of the air intake pipe 4. When the air enters the fixed groove 3, it is convenient to blow the blade 13 to drive the rotating rod 12 and the brush 14 to rotate, so that the air is filtered while performing a self-cleaning operation.

[0036] The detailed connection methods are well-known technologies in the field. All components in this solution are general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structures and principles can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.

[0037] One specific application of this embodiment is:

[0038] Air filtration and self-cleaning process

[0039] When the air compressor starts, outside air is actively drawn into the filter device. Specifically, outside air first enters the fixed seat 1 in an orderly manner through the air inlet pipe 4. The fixed seat 1 provides a stable channel and support structure for the initial entry of air, ensuring that the air can smoothly transition to the next stage. Then, the air flows smoothly into the fixed groove 3. The fixed groove 3 plays a role in further guiding and buffering the air, making the air flow more stable.

[0040] Subsequently, air enters the filter cartridge 8 through the top seat 9. The filter cartridge 8 is the core component of the entire filtration device. It has a fine filtration structure inside, which can effectively intercept pollutants such as dust, impurities, and particulate matter in the air. When the air flows inside the filter cartridge 8, these pollutants will be adsorbed on the inner wall of the filter cartridge 8, and the purified air will be discharged from the filter cartridge 8 and enter the space between the outer shell 5 and the filter cartridge 8.

[0041] It is worth mentioning that during the process of air entering the fixed groove 3, the power generated by its flow will blow the blades 13. The blades 13 are connected to the rotating rod 12. The rotation of the blades 13 will drive the rotating rod 12 to rotate synchronously. The rotating rod 12 is equipped with a brush 14. As the rotating rod 12 rotates, the brush 14 will also make a circular motion around the inner wall of the filter cartridge 8. Through this rotational motion, the brush 14 can perform a comprehensive and meticulous brushing operation on the inner wall of the filter cartridge 8. It will brush off the impurities adsorbed on the inner wall of the filter cartridge 8 little by little. These brushed-off impurities will fall downwards under the action of gravity and eventually fall into the connecting seat 11 for centralized collection. In this way, the filter cartridge 8 achieves a self-cleaning function while continuously filtering air, avoiding the large accumulation of impurities on the inner wall of the filter cartridge 8, and ensuring the stability and continuity of the filtration effect.

[0042] Finally, the filtered air, located between the housing 5 and the filter cartridge 8, is discharged from the filter device through the exhaust pipe 7, providing a clean and pure source of compressed air for the air compressor.

[0043] Maintenance and repair operation process

[0044] As the usage time increases, in order to ensure the performance and service life of the filter device, it is necessary to perform regular maintenance on the filter cartridge 8 and the connecting seat 11. The specific steps are as follows:

[0045] Before performing maintenance operations, first ensure that the air compressor has stopped running and the power is cut off to ensure the safety of the operators. Then, rotate the outer shell 5 along the thread direction to drive the fixed seat 6. Since the fixed seat 6 and the fixed seat 1 are connected by threads, the outer shell 5 can be gradually detached from the fixed seat 1 by rotation. During the rotation, pay attention to the smoothness and slowness of the movement to avoid damage to the parts due to excessive force.

[0046] Next, rotate the filter cartridge 8 together with the top seat 9, the base 10 and the connecting seat 11. Similarly, they are connected to the fixed seat 1 by threads. When rotating, ensure that the relative positions of each component are stable to prevent jamming or damage. After rotating to a certain extent, the filter cartridge 8 can be smoothly removed from the fixed seat 1.

[0047] At this point, remove the connector 11 from the base 10. A large amount of impurities that fell during the self-cleaning process have been collected inside the connector 11, and it needs to be cleaned. You can use appropriate tools, such as brushes or vacuum cleaners, to thoroughly clean the impurities inside the connector 11 and ensure that there are no residual impurities inside the connector 11.

[0048] After cleaning, tighten the filter cartridge 8, top seat 9, base 10 and connecting seat 11 into the fixing groove 3. During the tightening process, pay attention to aligning the thread direction to ensure that the connection between each component is tight and firm. Then, put the outer shell 5 and fixing seat 6 onto the outer wall of the filter cartridge 8 and tighten it into the thread groove 2 along the thread direction. During the tightening of the outer shell 5, check the sealing between the outer shell 5 and the fixing seat 1 to ensure that there is no air leakage, so as to ensure the normal operation of the filtration device.

[0049] Through the above workflow and maintenance procedures, this energy-saving self-cleaning intake filter can effectively provide clean air to the air compressor, while reducing maintenance costs and improving energy efficiency.

[0050] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, nor is the present utility model limited to the examples given above. Any changes, alterations, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should be protected by the present utility model.
