Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mixing devices, and in particular to a gas-liquid mixing device. Background Art
[0002] At present, there are mainly the following ways to mix hydrogen and water: 1. Pressureless mixing method: After water is filled in an open container, hydrogen is supplied to the water through a hydrogen production device and then dissolved in the water naturally under normal pressure for mixing. 2. Pressurized mixing method: After water is filled in a closed container, hydrogen is supplied to the water through a hydrogen production device and then dissolved in the water under a certain pressure for mixing. 3. Venturi and jet mixing method: While supplying water to the Venturi, hydrogen is supplied by bypass for hydrogen dissolution. 4. Combined with hollow fiber membrane hydrogen dissolution method: Water and hydrogen are supplied to the hollow fiber membrane filter element, and the small holes of the hollow fiber membrane and the certain pressure formed are used to mix and dissolve hydrogen with water. The above preparation method technology has the following disadvantages: 1. Since the saturated dissolved hydrogen content in water under normal pressure is 1.6ppm, it is impossible to achieve a supersaturated effect. 2. The pressurized mixing method can produce a supersaturated effect after pressurization, but it will be accompanied by risks due to excessive pressure, and the requirements for the mixing container are high, and only a certain amount of water can be taken each time, and continuous water output cannot be achieved. 3. The efficiency of hydrogen dissolution by venturi and jet is low, and a large amount of gas is wasted in the process of hydrogen dissolution. To achieve saturation effect, large-volume hydrogen production equipment is required to supply gas, which is relatively expensive. 4. The hydrogen dissolution method of hollow fiber membrane cannot achieve the hydrogen dissolution content of this technology, and the cost of gas supply equipment is relatively high. In addition, hollow fiber membrane is a consumable material that needs to be replaced regularly. Summary of the invention

The positioning member 1-4 is installed on the inner wall of the tube body 1-1 and is located downstream of the gas or liquid flow direction, and the pressure relief port 1-51 is located upstream of the gas or liquid flow direction. When the upstream gas or liquid pressure is relatively small, due to the action of the spring 1-2, the piston 1-3 blocks the pressure relief port 1-51 upward so that the gas or liquid cannot pass through. When the upstream gas or liquid pressure is greater than the action of the spring 1-2, the piston 1-3 drives the spring 1-2 to compress downward, the pressure relief port 1-51 opens, the two ends of the tube body 1-1 are connected, the gas or liquid can flow, and the pressure relief is completed, ensuring that the gas or liquid upstream of the tube body 1-1 is within a certain range to achieve constant pressure.
[0041] Specifically, in one embodiment, the tube body 1-1 and the limit seat 1-5 are integrally formed, and the upper end surface of the limit seat 1-5 is an inclined surface, which is inclined from top to bottom toward the center of the pressure relief port 1-51, thereby draining the gas and liquid.

A sealing ring 1-6 is sleeved on the sealing portion 1-32, and the limiting portion 1-31 is located between the limiting seat 1-5 and the positioning member 1-4 and slides, and the sealing portion 1-32 can pass through the pressure relief port 1-51.

[0045] Specifically, in one embodiment, the limiting portion 1-31, the sealing portion 1-32, and the frustum portion 1-34 are integrally formed.

[0056] Compared with the prior art, this gas-liquid mixing device can achieve high-concentration hydrogen dissolution (3.0ppm or more), and its structure is simple, stable and not prone to malfunction. There is no need to supply gas continuously with water production. After a certain amount of gas is input, high-pressure mixing and continuous water production can be achieved. The gas collector can store hydrogen during the water supply process and add it when needed to achieve the effect of high-concentration continuous hydrogen dissolution of small-volume hydrogen production equipment, and the electrolyzer does not need to bear pressure, which greatly reduces the cost of equipment and extends its service life. The gas collector can store gas quantitatively according to size, which is convenient for calculating the amount of gas added each time. In the traditional production and preparation process, when the pressure in the mixer is high during the mixing process, direct gas supply requires the electrolyzer gas transmission pressure to be greater than the pressure in the mixer or to avoid the water supply process for gas transmission, so a large-volume gas production device is required to produce gas quickly. The present application sets a gas collector to produce gas uninterruptedly during the water supply process for pre-reserve, so compared with the direct gas supply method, a gas production device with a smaller gas production volume can be selected to reduce costs.
[0057] The first valve body, the second valve body, the third valve body, the fourth valve body, the fifth valve body and the seventh valve body of the present invention are all normally closed solenoid valves, and the sixth valve body is a normally open solenoid valve. The working process of the present invention includes the following steps:
[0058] Step 1: Turn on the liquid pump to supply water, open the third valve body and the first valve body, close the sixth valve body, and let the water flow through the third valve body and enter the air cavity from the bottom of the gas collector, and discharge the air inside the gas collector from the top of the gas collector and through the first connecting pipe, the first valve body, and the second connecting pipe, and then from the exhaust pipe until the gas collector is full of water. Since the first one-way valve is provided at the outlet of the electrolyzer and the second one-way valve is provided at the outlet of the gas collector, water can only be discharged from the second one-way valve through the first valve body. The above process can empty the air inside the gas collector with water, avoid the lack of purity caused by mixing with air after hydrogen enters, and improve the hydrogen mixing effect.
[0059] When the air cavity of the air collector is full of water, close the third valve body and open the fifth valve body. The first valve body and the sixth valve body remain unchanged and continue to supply water. The water flows through the fifth valve body and enters the mixing cavity from the bottom of the mixer, and the air inside the mixer is discharged from the top of the mixer through the first valve body and the waste pipe until the mixer is full of water.
[0060] Step 2: After the mixer is full of water, the fifth valve body and the first valve body are closed, the sixth valve body is opened, and the water supply is stopped at the same time. Then the electrolyzer is turned on to produce hydrogen, which is injected from the top of the gas collector. Since the sixth valve body is open, the water inside the gas collector will be discharged from the bottom through the sixth valve body and out of the exhaust pipe due to the entry of gas. When the water is drained, the gas supply is stopped, and the gas collector is now filled with hydrogen. The specific emptying time is determined by the gas production of the electrolyzer. The gas supply time can be set according to the gas production and the size of the gas collector. The gas supply time can also be set by setting a liquid level sensor in the internal capacity of the gas collector. The liquid level can also be determined by setting a visual window on the gas collector, or the gas supply time can be set after the water contained in the gas collector is drained.
[0061] Step 3: After stopping the gas supply, the third valve body and the seventh valve body are opened, the sixth valve body is closed, and water supply begins. The water flows through the third valve body and enters from the bottom of the gas collector, pushing the internal hydrogen from the top of the gas collector into the mixing chamber of the mixer. The water in the mixing chamber will increase in pressure due to the entry of the top gas. When the constant pressure valve opening pressure is reached, the constant pressure valve automatically opens to discharge the water, and the water is discharged through the seventh valve body. Then the third valve body and the seventh valve body are closed, the sixth valve body is opened, and the water supply is stopped.
[0062] Furthermore, if you want to increase the pressure of the gas in the mixer, you can repeat the second and third steps, that is, after stopping the water supply, execute the second step again, then open the electrolyzer to drain the water, then stop the gas, open the third valve body and the seventh valve body, close the sixth valve body, and supply water to inject it from the gas collector into the mixer. This can be repeated to compress the gas into the mixer to form a larger gas storage capacity and a certain pressure. The higher the internal gas pressure, the better the mixing effect. The shape of the mixer can also be set by matching the spray shape of the atomizer to extend the mixing time of hydrogen and water. In the water production process, a larger gas storage capacity can be mixed to generate more water, reducing the number of times gas needs to be replenished. For example, by repeatedly adding the gas volume of the gas collector three times, three portions of water can be made before adding gas.
[0063] Furthermore, after the third step is completed, the hydrogen can continue to be transported through the second step to store the hydrogen in the gas collector and wait for replenishment when it is needed next time.
[0064] Step 4: Mix and produce hydrogen-rich water. The second valve body and the fourth valve body are opened, and the liquid pump is started to supply water. The water flows through the second valve body and enters the mixing chamber of the mixer from the top of the mixer for gas-liquid mixing. When the pressure in the mixing chamber reaches the opening pressure of the constant pressure valve, the hydrogen-rich water flows through the fourth valve body and the discharge pipe and is discharged. A hydrogen-rich water collection container is set at the end of the discharge pipe.
[0065] Furthermore, when the preparation of hydrogen-rich water reaches a certain amount, the amount of gas in the mixer will decrease due to consumption. The gas stored in the gas collector can be transported to the mixer for filling through the third step, and then the electrolyzer can be started again to produce gas to replenish the gas collector. The gas production of the electrolyzer can be monitored by a flow meter to start gas filling, or it can be judged by sensing the water level change through the liquid level sensor in the mixer or the window on the container.
[0066] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
