Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of condensation technology, and more specifically, to a condensation device. Background Technology

[0002] A sterilization chamber is a device that uses high temperature and high pressure to sterilize the objects inside. During or after use, the high-temperature gases inside the chamber need to be safely discharged through a condenser. The condenser is a heat exchanger that converts steam into liquid, releasing energy in the process.

[0003] In existing technologies, condensing devices often condense steam using only a single-stage condensing unit, resulting in poor condensing performance that is unsatisfactory. Therefore, improvements are indeed necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a condensation device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: a condensation device is installed on a sterilization tank, including a primary condenser and a secondary condenser. Both the primary condenser and the secondary condenser include an air inlet and an air outlet. The position of the air inlet is lower than the position of the air outlet. A Pall ring heat exchanger is installed inside the primary condenser, and the Pall heat exchanger is located between the air inlet and the air outlet of the primary condenser.

[0006] Preferably, the primary heat exchanger is fixedly composed of an upper shell and a lower shell, and each of the fixed ends of the upper shell and the lower shell has a heat exchange mesh. A Pall ring is also fixedly arranged on the heat exchange mesh of the upper shell. The upper shell and the lower shell form a heat exchange space. The Pall heat exchanger includes a pair of heat exchange meshes and Pall rings.

[0007] Preferably, the upper shell of the primary heat exchanger is provided with a water inlet at the top, a combined nozzle connected to the water inlet is provided inside the upper shell, and a water outlet is provided at the bottom of the lower shell.

[0008] Preferably, the secondary heat exchanger includes an upper shell and a lower shell, both of which have a heat exchange mesh at one fixed end, and the lower shell has a water outlet at its bottom end.

[0009] The advantages of this invention are:

[0010] The water vapor generated in the sterilization tank is cooled by a primary condenser and a secondary condenser. The air inlet is located below the air outlet to match the flow direction of the water vapor under high temperature and pressure. By placing the Pall heat exchanger in the path of the water vapor for heat exchange, the condensation efficiency of the water vapor is improved. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The present invention provides a condensation device that cools and lowers the water vapor discharged from the sterilization tank through a primary condenser 1 and a secondary condenser 2, thereby achieving the purpose of condensing and discharging the water vapor.

[0019] The technical solutions described in this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this invention. Obviously, the embodiments described in this specification are only some feasible technical solutions of this invention. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without any creative effort should be considered to fall within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0020] It should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" used in the embodiments of the present invention are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying the number of technical features defined therein. Therefore, features defined with "first" and "second" in the embodiments of this specification may indicate that at least one of the defined technical features is included.

[0021] The technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention described in this specification can be combined with each other, but only if they can be implemented by those skilled in the art. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that the combination of technical solutions does not exist.

[0022] A condensation device is installed on a sterilization tank, including a primary condenser 1 and a secondary condenser 2. Both the primary condenser 1 and the secondary condenser 2 include an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet is positioned lower than the air outlet. A Pall ring 17 heat exchanger is installed inside the primary condenser 1, and the Pall heat exchanger is positioned between the air inlet and the air outlet of the primary condenser 1.

[0023] Specifically, this invention is applied to sterilization tanks. The water vapor generated in the sterilization tank is cooled by a primary condenser 1 and a secondary condenser 2. The air inlet is located below the air outlet to match the flow direction of the water vapor under high temperature and pressure. By placing a Pall heat exchanger in the path of the water vapor for heat exchange, the condensation efficiency of the water vapor is improved.

[0024] Furthermore, the primary heat exchanger is fixedly composed of an upper shell 14 and a lower shell 15. Both the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 have a filter screen at one fixed end. A Pall ring 17 is also fixedly installed on the filter screen of the upper shell 14. The upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 together form a heat exchange space. The Pall heat exchanger includes a pair of the filter screens and the Pall ring 17. The air inlet 11 is located on the lower shell 15, and the air outlet 12 is located on the upper shell 14.

[0025] Specifically, the Pall ring 17 features high throughput, low resistance, and high separation efficiency. The filter screen can slow down the movement speed of water vapor. When water vapor enters the heat exchange space, it undergoes preliminary cooling and refrigeration under the action of the Pall ring 17 and the filter screen.

[0026] Furthermore, the upper shell 14 of the first-stage heat exchanger is provided with a water inlet 13 at its top, and a combined nozzle 16 connected to the water inlet 13 is provided inside the upper shell 14 of the first-stage heat exchanger. The lower shell 15 is provided with a water outlet 4 at its bottom.

[0027] Specifically, in order to further accelerate the condensation efficiency, a combination nozzle 16 is installed at the top of the upper shell 14 of the first-stage heat exchanger to spray downwards and counteract the water vapor. With the cooperation of the Pall ring 17 and the filter screen, the contact time between water vapor and water is increased, thereby improving the condensation efficiency of water vapor. The water vapor that falls from the spray is discharged through the outlet 4 of the lower shell.

[0028] Furthermore, the secondary heat exchanger includes an upper shell 23 and a lower shell 24. A heat exchange mesh 25 is provided inside the upper shell 23 of the secondary condenser 2, and the heat exchange mesh 25 covers the air outlet 22. Both the upper shell 23 and the lower shell 24 of the secondary condenser 2 have a filter screen at one fixed end. A water outlet 4 is provided at the bottom end of the lower shell 24 of the secondary condenser 2. The air inlet 21 is provided on the lower shell 24, and the air outlet 22 is provided on the upper shell 23.

[0029] Specifically, by covering the gas outlet with heat exchange mesh 25, the water vapor after passing through the first-stage condenser 1 is cooled again by passing through heat exchange mesh 25, thereby ensuring that the temperature of the discharged gas is suitable. The cooled water vapor condenses into water droplets, which are discharged through the water outlet 4 at the bottom of the lower shell.

[0030] It should be noted that the air outlet includes air outlet 12 and air outlet 22, the air inlet includes air inlet 11 and air inlet 21, the upper shell includes upper shell 14 and upper shell 23, and the lower shell includes lower shell 15 and lower shell 24.

[0031] Furthermore, the primary condenser 1 and the secondary condenser 2 are in the shape of tanks.

[0032] Specifically, the tank-shaped condenser design ensures that water vapor has sufficient space for heat exchange, indirectly improving heat exchange efficiency.

[0033] Furthermore, an annular insert is provided at one end of the upper housing near the lower housing. The diameter of the annular insert is smaller than the diameter of the lower housing, and the annular insert is inserted into the lower housing.

[0034] Specifically, by inserting a ring-shaped insert into the lower housing, the sealing between the upper and lower housings is improved, and the initial fixation between the upper and lower housings is completed.

[0035] Furthermore, the outer sides of the upper and lower housings are also provided with mutually cooperating buckles 3.

[0036] Specifically, the upper and lower housings are further secured by clip 3, preventing them from separating.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and additions without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and additions should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
