The embodiments described below by reference to the drawings are exemplary only, for the purpose of explanation, and are not to be understood as a limitation of the present application.

[0033] As Figures 1-9 shown, the present embodiment provides an electrostatic demulsification filter for separating fuel oil to be separated, comprising a filter housing, the filter housing forms an oil inlet cavity 210, an electrostatic cavity, a first water collection cavity 260 and a second water collection cavity 250; the oil inlet cavity 210 is used to accommodate the fuel oil to be separated; the electrostatic cavity is communicated with the oil inlet cavity 210, the cavity wall of the electrostatic cavity is provided with a positive plate and a negative plate, and the positive plate and the negative plate are opposite to each other, which can demulsify the fuel oil to be separated located between the positive plate and the negative plate to obtain water droplets and clean fuel oil; the first water collection cavity 260 is communicated with the electrostatic cavity and is used to collect water droplets, the bottom of the first water collection cavity 260 is provided with a first water drain valve 500, and the first water drain valve 500 selectively discharges the water droplets in the first water collection cavity 260; the second water collection cavity 250 can collect the liquid overflowing from the electrostatic cavity, and a filter element body 600 is installed in the second water collection cavity 250, which is used to filter the clean fuel oil, so that the clean fuel oil flows to the oil outlet cavity 220 through the filter channel 610 of the filter element body 600, and the bottom of the second water collection cavity 250 is provided with a second water drain valve 400, which selectively discharges the water droplets in the second water collection cavity 250.

[0034] The electrostatic demulsification filter forms an electrostatic field between the positive plate and the negative plate by arranging the positive plate and the negative plate in the electrostatic cavity, which can complete the demulsification, coalescence and sedimentation of emulsified water in the fuel oil to be separated, and the emulsified water droplets in the oil will deform, break, coalesce and sediment under the action of the electrostatic field, and the water droplets after demulsification will sediment in the first water collection cavity 260; after the electrostatic cavity is filled, the water droplets that have not completely settled will flow to the second water collection cavity 250 with the clean fuel oil; the filter element body 600 filters the clean fuel oil, so that the clean fuel oil flows to the oil outlet cavity 220, the filter element body 600 blocks the water droplets that have not completely settled and makes them sediment at the bottom of the second water collection cavity 250. The above structural improvement reduces the risk of emulsified water in the fuel oil to be separated entering the engine, avoiding the situation that the engine is damaged. Instead of the conventional design scheme of using water collecting material, it effectively slows down the efficiency decay of the electrostatic demulsification filter after long-term use, so that it can maintain good emulsified water separation efficiency for a long time.

[0035] Specifically, the main component of the fuel oil to be separated is diesel oil.

[0036] In the embodiment, the communication port of the oil inlet cavity 210 with the electrostatic cavity is arranged at a first position, and the communication port of the first water collection cavity 260 with the electrostatic cavity is arranged at a second position; the first position and the second position are respectively located at two ends of the electrostatic cavity, and a line connecting the first position and the second position is parallel to a plane where the positive plate is located.

[0037] The design that the first position and the second position are respectively located at two ends of the electrostatic cavity limits the positions where the oil inlet cavity 210 and the first water collection cavity 260 communicate with the electrostatic cavity, effectively avoiding the situation that the to-be-separated fuel oil flowing from the oil inlet cavity 210 into the electrostatic cavity has not been sufficiently demulsified, coalesced and settled by the electrostatic field, and flowing into the first water collection cavity 260. The above layout design adjusts the flow trajectory of the to-be-separated fuel oil, prolongs the time for the to-be-separated fuel oil to stay in the electrostatic cavity, and thus improves the separation effect of the electrostatic demulsification filter on emulsified water.

[0038] Further, the first position is located at the bottom of the electrostatic cavity, and the second position is located at the bottom of the electrostatic cavity. The design that the first position is located at the bottom limits the position where the to-be-separated fuel oil flows into the electrostatic cavity, avoiding the situation that the to-be-separated fuel oil directly enters the second water collection cavity 250 due to accidents, and also avoiding the risk of water splashing in the electrostatic cavity. The design that the second position is located at the bottom limits the position where the water droplets flow out of the electrostatic cavity, avoiding the situation that the settled water droplets cannot flow out of the electrostatic cavity. The above design improves the efficiency of liquid circulation in the electrostatic cavity, optimizes the flow trajectory of the liquid in the electrostatic cavity, and realizes full use of the space of the electrostatic cavity.

[0039] In the embodiment, the first water valve 500 is also provided with a control unit for controlling the opening and closing of the first water valve 500. When the liquid level of the water droplets in the first water collection cavity 260 is higher than a first liquid level, the first water valve 500 is opened to discharge the water droplets out of the first water collection cavity 260, and when the liquid level of the water droplets in the first water collection cavity 260 is lower than a second liquid level, the first water valve 500 is closed to stop discharging the water droplets. The above design realizes accurate control of the liquid level of the water droplets in the first water collection cavity 260, avoiding the problem that the liquid level of the water droplets is too high to cause space compression in the electrostatic cavity, so that the electrostatic demulsification operation cannot be fully completed.

[0040] Further, the first water valve 500 is also provided with a first water level sensor for monitoring the liquid level of the water droplets in the first water collection cavity 260. The first water level sensor has a simple structure and is reliable in operation, and can smoothly complete the monitoring of the liquid level of the water droplets in the first water collection cavity 260.

[0041] Specifically, the first water level sensor is communicatively connected with the alarm unit, when the liquid level of the water droplets in the first water collecting cavity 260 is higher than the first liquid level, the alarm unit sends an alarm to remind the operator to open the first water drain valve 500. The setting of the alarm unit makes the electrostatic demulsification filter have the function of reminding, avoiding the situation that the operator forgets to discharge the water droplets due to mistake.

[0042] In other embodiments of the present embodiment, the control unit is also used to control the opening and closing of the second water drain valve 400. When the liquid level of the water droplets in the second water collecting cavity 250 is higher than the third liquid level, the second water drain valve 400 is opened to discharge the water droplets out of the second water collecting cavity 250, and when the liquid level of the water droplets in the second water collecting cavity 250 is lower than the fourth liquid level, the second water drain valve 400 is closed to stop discharging the water droplets; the second water level sensor is also installed on the second water drain valve 400, and the second water level sensor is used to monitor the liquid level of the water droplets in the second water collecting cavity 250.

[0043] In the present embodiment, the cavity wall of the second water collecting cavity 250 closes both ends of the filter core channel 610, and the oil outlet cavity 220 is connected with the filter core channel 610 through the communication pipe arranged at the bottom of the second water collecting cavity 250. The above design avoids the situation that the liquid in the second water collecting cavity 250 directly enters the filter core channel 610 without being filtered by the filter core body 600, thereby improving the filtering capacity of the electrostatic demulsification filter and ensuring that the liquid flowing into the oil outlet cavity 220 is clean fuel filtered.

[0044] Specifically, the oil outlet cavity 220 is communicated with the bottom of the second water collecting cavity 250, the communication pipe is inserted into the opening of the oil outlet cavity 220, and the communication pipe is coaxially locked with the filter core body 600. The above design not only ensures the positioning effect of the filter core body 600 in the second water collecting cavity 250, but also ensures that the clean fuel entering the filter core channel 610 can smoothly flow into the oil outlet cavity 220, which is simple in structure, compact in structure and high in working stability.

[0045] Exemplarily, the filter housing includes a top cover 100 and a base 200, the top cover 100 is detachably connected to the base 200, the top cover 100 is provided with a first groove and a second groove, the base 200 is provided with a third groove and a fourth groove, the first groove and the third groove are spliced to form an electrostatic cavity, and the second groove and the fourth groove are spliced to form a second water collecting cavity 250. The split design of the filter housing reduces the difficulty of production, improves the manufacturing efficiency of the electrostatic demulsification filter, and is helpful to realize the large-scale production of the electrostatic demulsification filter.

[0046] Specifically, the base 200 is injection molded on the positive plate and the negative plate. The above molding method simplifies the production steps, improves the manufacturing efficiency, ensures the connection stability of the positive plate and the negative plate on the base 200, and prolongs the service life of the electrostatic demulsification filter.

[0047] In the embodiment, the oil inlet cavity 210 is in communication with an external oil supply device through the oil inlet port 211, and the external oil supply device is used to supply the fuel oil to be separated to the oil inlet cavity 210. The oil outlet cavity 220 is in communication with an external collection device through the oil outlet port 221, and the external collection device is used to collect the clean fuel oil discharged from the oil outlet cavity 220.

[0048] Exemplarily, two electrostatic cavities are provided, and the two electrostatic cavities are symmetrically arranged about the center of the second water collecting cavity 250. The design symmetrically about the center of the second water collecting cavity 250 ensures that the two electrostatic cavities can discharge the liquid into the second water collecting cavity 250 after sufficiently completing the operation of electrostatic demulsification, avoids the mutual influence of the liquid flow trajectories between the electrostatic cavities, and optimizes the separation efficiency and separation effect of the emulsified water.

[0049] Specifically, the two electrostatic cavities are a first electrostatic cavity 230 and a second electrostatic cavity 240, a positive plate forming an electrostatic field in the first electrostatic cavity 230 is a first positive plate 231, a negative plate forming an electrostatic field in the first electrostatic cavity 230 is a first negative plate 232, a positive plate forming an electrostatic field in the second electrostatic cavity 240 is a second positive plate 241, and a negative plate forming an electrostatic field in the second electrostatic cavity 240 is a second negative plate 242; the first electrostatic cavity 230 is in communication with the oil inlet cavity 210 through a first communication port 233, the second electrostatic cavity 240 is in communication with the oil inlet cavity 210 through a second communication port 243, the first electrostatic cavity 230 is in communication with the first water collecting cavity 260 through a third communication port 234, and the second electrostatic cavity 240 is in communication with the first water collecting cavity 260 through a fourth communication port 244.

[0050] In the embodiment, the electrostatic demulsification filter further comprises an electric field controller 300, and the electric field controller 300 is used to control the voltage of the positive plate and the voltage of the negative plate. The electric field controller 300 can be matched and developed according to the corresponding control logic of the customer's demand. The wire harness of all the positive plates and the negative plates is connected with an electrode plate interface 320 on the electric field controller 300, and the power supply and the voltage of the positive plates and the negative plates are uniformly controlled by the electric field controller 300. The electric field controller 300 also reserves a vehicle interface 310, and the information transmission between the electrostatic demulsification filter and the vehicle can be completed by using the vehicle interface 310.

[0051] Specifically, the electric field controller 300 is screwed on the outer wall of the base 200.

[0052] In the embodiment, the whole vehicle supplies power to the electric field controller 300, and the electric field controller 300 independently controls the positive plate and the negative plate. The electric field controller 300 can detect the electric field strength between the positive plate and the negative plate, and adjust the voltage between the positive plate and the negative plate according to the feedback data, so as to realize the control of the electrostatic field strength. When the water content of the fuel to be separated changes, the electric field controller 300 can automatically adjust the electrostatic field strength to ensure that the emulsified water can achieve the best demulsification effect and ensure the permanent good emulsified water separation effect. At the same time, the electric field controller 300 can overload and short circuit protection, and has a circuit breaking alarm function. In normal use, the electric field controller 300 can transfer the information of the electric field controller 300 to the instrument panel of the whole vehicle to display the working state of the whole vehicle in real time.
