Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the advancement of science and technology, urban sewage needs to be recycled and reused. When sewage is recycled and reused, a sludge dryer is needed to dry the sludge in the sewage. In the process of drying the sludge, due to the large number of bends in the air duct, the resistance of air circulation inside the duct is large, and the energy consumption is relatively high. The sludge drying automation production equipment with publication number CN108046563B drives the formed sludge through the area with hot air flow through the mesh belt structure to dry it, so as to achieve the purpose of thorough sludge drying. The hot air circulation system drives the hot air to circulate in the drying chamber and the dehumidification chamber, and the hot air is dehumidified and then used for drying again. The energy utilization is high, and the sludge is fully dried. The processing cost is greatly reduced, the symmetrical arrangement of the dehumidification and drying channels makes the hot air drying efficiency high, the air inlet channel and the air outlet channel are arranged perpendicular to each other, and the space of the dehumidification chamber is fully utilized, so that the structure of the dehumidification chamber is more compact and the footprint of the equipment is reduced. At the same time, the dehumidification and drying channels used to dry the hot air are shorter, which reduces the energy loss of the hot air during the drying process and further improves the energy utilization rate. However, there is still a problem in the internal structure of the circulating air duct of the sludge dryer, and the air flow resistance of the air duct distributed up and down is large and the air flow is not strong, which makes the impact and harm brought by dust particles and odor more serious, and for the existing filter, the efficiency of dust filtration is low and it is not easy to repair and clean.

[0026] Reference Figure 1-Figure 2 The present invention provides an embodiment: a symmetrical air duct of a sludge dryer with a heat pipe, comprising an equipment housing 1, wherein two symmetrical groups of air duct bodies 2 are arranged inside the equipment housing 1, and the air duct bodies 2 have a simple structure and a small number of turns, thereby reducing the air resistance therein, improving the circulation effect of the air duct, and reducing the power of the centrifugal fan 12 when working, and the outlets of the two groups of air duct bodies 2 are gathered at the air outlet 3 of the equipment housing 1;

[0027] A return air duct 4 is arranged above the inlet end of the air duct body 2, and a primary filter 5, a medium-efficiency filter 6 and a high-efficiency filter 7 are arranged in sequence from one end to the other end of the return air duct 4;

[0028] The air duct body 2 is provided with a water meter cooler 8 and a vertically placed evaporator 9 in sequence from the inlet end to the outlet end.

[0029] According to the above technical solution, the gas passes through the lower mesh bag inside the third air duct and the second mesh bag at the upper end thereof and then enters the return air duct 4. A primary filter 5, a medium-efficiency filter 6 and a high-efficiency filter 7 are arranged in sequence from one end to the other inside the return air duct 4, which can filter the dust in the circulating gas, reduce the overall maintenance times for the dryer air duct, and reduce the cost. At the same time, the above filters are all arranged in the return air duct 4, and the return air duct 4 is arranged at the upper end of the equipment housing 1. Each return air duct 4 is a separate modular arrangement, which is convenient for cleaning the internal filter, and the airflows coming out of the two return air ducts 4 enter the two return air ducts 4 respectively. In the symmetrical air duct main body 2, a water meter cooler 8 is arranged at the upper end of the air duct main body 2, which can cool the airflow. The cooled airflow flows downward along the air duct main body 2, and the air is cooled again by the heat pipe evaporation end 11 arranged inside the air duct main body 2, and then enters the evaporator 9 for cooling and dehumidification. After dehumidification, it is heated again by the heat pipe condensation end 10. After the air inside the left and right air duct main bodies 2 is merged, it enters the bottom condenser 13 for heating again, and then circulates to the air outlet 3 through the centrifugal fan 12 to dry the sludge. The air after the sludge is dried enters the return air duct 4 again for further circulation.

[0030] Furthermore, a heat pipe condensing end 10 and a heat pipe evaporating end 11 are respectively provided on both sides of the evaporator 9 .

[0031] Furthermore, a centrifugal fan 12 is disposed inside the air outlet 3 for discharging the heated gas.

[0034] Furthermore, a water receiving pan 18 is provided at the lower end of the evaporator 9. The water receiving pan 18 discharges condensed water through a water pipe at the lower end, so that the condensed water generated when the evaporator 9 is working can be discharged to the outside in a timely and effective manner.

[0035] Furthermore, the primary filter 5 is tiltedly arranged inside the return air duct 4, so that dust in the filter can fall off more easily and automatically.

[0036] Furthermore, a compressor 19 is disposed inside the device housing 1 .

[0037] Furthermore, an observation door is provided on the outside of the equipment housing 1, and the primary filter 5, the medium filter 6, the high efficiency filter 7, the evaporator 9, the bottom condenser 13, the top condenser 16 and the compressor 19 are all close to the observation door, so as to facilitate the inspection and maintenance of the internal components.

[0038] Furthermore, the interior of the equipment housing 1 also includes a third air duct 20, and the third air duct 20 is at the upper end of the air outlet 3, and is connected to the position of the return air duct 4 near the primary filter 5. The interior of the third air duct 20 is provided with a lower mesh bag and a second mesh bag, and the air enters the return air duct 4 again after passing through the two mesh bags.

[0039] Working principle: When the device is in use, the gas passes through the lower mesh bag inside the third air duct 20 and the second mesh bag at the upper end thereof and then enters the return air duct 4. Inside the return air duct 4, a primary filter 5, a medium-efficiency filter 6 and a high-efficiency filter 7 are arranged in sequence from one end to the other, which can filter the dust in the circulating gas, reduce the overall maintenance times for the dryer air duct, and reduce costs. At the same time, the above filters are all arranged in the return air duct 4, and the return air duct 4 is arranged at the upper end of the equipment housing 1. Each return air duct 4 is independently modularized, which is convenient for cleaning the internal filters, and the air flows coming out of the two return air ducts 4 enter the return air duct 4 separately. The air enters two symmetrical air duct bodies 2, and a water meter cooler 8 is arranged at the upper end of the air duct body 2, which can cool the airflow. The cooled airflow flows downward along the air duct body 2, and the air is cooled again by the heat pipe evaporation end 11 arranged inside the air duct body 2, and then enters the evaporator 9 for cooling and dehumidification. After dehumidification, it is heated again by the heat pipe condensation end 10. After the air inside the left and right air duct bodies 2 is merged, it enters the bottom condenser 13 for heating again, and then circulates to the air outlet 3 through the centrifugal fan 12 to dry the sludge. The air after the sludge is dried enters the return air duct 4 again for further circulation.
