DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0030] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives and effects of the present invention, the specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] The seawater ice-making system based on fog-like direct injection water supply according to the present invention includes an ice-making bucket 3, a transmission system 2, a pressurized water system and a compressor refrigeration system. The ice-making bucket 3 includes an inner cylinder wall and an outer cylinder wall, which are made of stainless steel and have good corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity. A refrigeration flow channel 9 is provided between the inner cylinder wall and the outer cylinder wall, and the refrigerant flow channel is connected to the compressor refrigeration system. A main shaft 16 is provided at the center of the inner cylinder wall, and fog-like direct injection nozzles 15 for spraying water onto the inner surface of the inner cylinder wall are arranged on the main shaft. The water sprayed onto the inner surface of the inner cylinder wall is condensed to form ice flakes through the refrigerant flow channel.

[0032] Inside the main shaft, there is a pressurized water flow channel connected to the fog-like direct spray nozzle 15. The lower end of the main shaft has a water inlet 10 connected to the pressurized water flow channel. The water inlet 10 is connected to the pressurized water system. After seawater is transported into the water inlet by a water pump and pipeline in the pressurized water system, it is sprayed out from the fog-like direct spray nozzle 15 through the pressurized water flow channel. The upper end of the main shaft is connected to the transmission system 2 to achieve the rotation of the main shaft. The transmission system 2 can be a motor, or a speed-changing mechanism driven by a motor, etc., as long as it can achieve the rotation of the main shaft. A scraper 14 is provided on the main shaft and abuts against the inner surface of the inner cylinder wall. When the scraper 14 rotates with the main shaft, the ice flakes generated on the inner surface of the inner cylinder wall are scraped off. An ice flake outlet is provided at the lower part of the ice-making bucket. After the water sprayed out from the fog-like direct spray nozzle 15 condenses on the inner surface of the inner cylinder wall to form ice flakes, they are scraped off by the scraper 14 and output from the ice flake outlet.

[0033] To improve the ice scraping effect, the upper and lower ends of the scraper 14 are rotatably hinged to the bracket. The bracket is fixedly arranged on the main shaft. The bracket includes an upper piece, a lower piece and baffles 18 on both sides of the scraper. The upper and lower ends of the two baffles are respectively fixed to the upper piece and the lower piece. During the ice crushing process, on the basis of rotating around the main shaft, the scraper performs ice crushing actions through its own rotation to obtain greater ice crushing efficiency.

[0034] In one embodiment, the upper piece and the lower piece have the same shape and are quarter circular arc plates. The transmission system includes a bevel gear 8 driven to rotate by the output end of the motor. The bevel gear meshes with a second bevel gear 19, and the second bevel gear 19 is coaxially and fixedly connected to a first spur gear 20. The first spur gear 20 meshes with a spur gear 13, and the spur gear 13 is fixedly connected to the end of the upper part of the main shaft extending out of the ice-making bucket.

[0035] The specific structure and embodiments of the present invention are described as follows:

[0036] Figure 1 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the control process of the present invention, including a control system, an ice-making bucket 3 and a compressor 7. The control system sets a preset pressure difference through the human-machine interface. When the compressor 7 of the compression refrigeration system starts to work, the power of the compressor is controlled by the control system to stabilize the pressure difference during the operation of the compressor, thereby controlling the refrigerant delivery rate. Finally, ice-making and ice-crushing actions are performed on the inner wall of the ice-making bucket 3 through the fog-like direct spray nozzle 15 and the spiral scraper 14.

[0037] The ice-making system is as Figure 2As shown in the figure, it includes a human-machine interaction system 1, a transmission system 2, an ice-making bucket 3, a water storage tank 4 for storing water, a brushless motor 5, a filter 6, and a compressor 7. The human-machine interaction system 1 contains a control system, which controls the operation of the overall ice-making process according to the instructions input through the human-machine interface. The compressor 7 is connected to the filter 6. After the refrigerant is filtered by the filter 6, it is injected into the refrigeration flow channel 9 inside the ice-making bucket 3, thereby completing the precooling of the ice-making bucket 3. Through the mutual cooperation of the compressor 7 and the control system, the transmission rate of the refrigerant can be ensured to match the ice-making rate, so as to obtain lower energy consumption. Through the cooperation between the compressor 7 and the filter 6, the liquid refrigerant is prevented from flowing back, which may cause a failure of the compressor 7. The pressurized water system pumps water from the water storage tank 4 and transports it to the water inlet 10.

[0038] The schematic diagram of the ice-making bucket 3 is as Figure 3 shown. The ice-making bucket 3 is composed of a scraper 14, a mist-type direct spray nozzle 15, a water inlet 10, and an ice output port for ice flakes. In the ice-making bucket 3, a transmission system 2 is provided at the top. Through the mutual cooperation of the bevel gear 8 and the spur gear 13, the transmission process is more stable and reliable. A spiral-shaped refrigerant flow channel is arranged between the inner cylinder wall and the outer cylinder wall to increase the heat exchange efficiency, thereby improving the ice-making efficiency. A pressurized water flow channel is provided inside the main shaft. This flow channel connects the pressurized water system and the mist-type direct spray nozzle 15. A spiral scraper 14, a baffle, and a mist-type direct spray nozzle 15 are installed on the main shaft of the ice-making bucket 3. The rotation of the main shaft drives the spray nozzle and the scraper 14 to perform ice-making and ice-crushing actions. At the same time, an auxiliary refrigeration section and a water receiving tank are provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the ice-making bucket, which can minimize the residual sea water volume and separate the residual sea water from the ice flakes.

[0039] The ice-making and ice-crushing processes are as Figure 4 shown. It includes a mist-type direct spray nozzle 15, a scraper 14, and a transmission system 2. The ice-making process is as follows: The refrigerant enters the inside of the ice-making bucket 3 through the spiral flow channel for precooling. After the precooling is completed, the seawater is pressurized by the pressurized water system, filtered through the filter screen, and then injected into the inner flow channel of the main shaft of the ice-making bucket 3. The mist-type direct spray nozzle 15 sprays the pressurized seawater in the form of mist onto the inner wall of the ice-making bucket 3. After heat exchange with the refrigerant, ice flakes with a certain uniform thickness are formed on the inner wall of the ice-making bucket 3. The spray nozzles are installed on the main shaft of the inner wall of the ice-making bucket 3 at equal distances in the vertical direction and rotate with the main shaft. At the same time, a compensation ice-making section can be provided at the bottom of the main shaft to reduce the residual amount of seawater. Compared with setting a water outlet at the top of the ice-making bucket 3, the seawater can cover the inside of the ice-making bucket 3 faster, thereby obtaining a larger heat exchange area and a higher ice-making efficiency. The ice-crushing process is as follows: The spiral scraper 14 is connected to the transmission system 2 through the main shaft 16. On the basis of rotating around the central axis, it performs ice-crushing actions through its own rotation to obtain a higher ice-crushing efficiency.

[0040] The position arrangement of the mist-type direct spray nozzle 15 is as Figure 5As shown in the figure, the main shaft of the ice-making bucket 3 is divided into four parts. Among them, a spiral scraper 14 and a baffle are installed in one-fourth of the space, and atomizing direct nozzles 15 are installed at equal distances in the remaining part. The rotation of the main shaft drives the nozzles and the scraper 14 to perform ice-making and ice-crushing actions. Compared with setting the water outlet at the top, this arrangement can obtain a larger heat exchange area per unit time, greatly improving the ice-making efficiency while keeping the power of the compressor 7 unchanged. At the same time, a compensation ice-making section is set at the bottom of the main shaft, which can greatly reduce the residual amount of seawater.

[0041] Embodiment 1: As Figure 2 shown, a seawater ice-making system based on atomizing direct water supply of the present invention, wherein: the operator sets the preset pressure difference of the compressor 7 to 2.1 Mpa through the human-machine interaction system 1. When the compressor 7 starts to work, the control system controls the power change of the compressor 7 to stabilize the refrigerant delivery rate, and finally ice-making and ice-crushing actions are carried out inside the ice-making bucket 3; at the same time, the microcontroller records information such as the time and magnitude of various control signals input through program design, and obtains the characteristic parameters corresponding to when the pressure difference of the compressor 7 is greater than the preset pressure difference, including the occurrence time, pressure difference magnitude, working temperature, etc., and obtains a pressure difference of 2.1 Mpa and a working temperature of 30 °C through signal conversion processing, providing a basis for subsequent analysis of the working state of the compressor 7.

[0042] Embodiment 2: As Figures 2 - 5 shown, a seawater ice-making system based on atomizing direct water supply of the present invention, wherein: the main shaft of the ice-making bucket 3 is divided into four parts. Among them, a spiral scraper 14 and a baffle are installed in one-fourth of the space, and atomizing direct nozzles 15 are installed at equal distances in the remaining part. During the ice-making process, the refrigerant is injected into the spiral refrigeration flow channel 9 through the compressor and the filter 6 to pre-cool the ice-making bucket 3. Subsequently, the transmission system 2 drives the scraper 14 to operate at a speed of 0.05 m / s. At the same time, the seawater is pressurized by the pressurized water system, filtered through the filter screen and then injected into the inner flow channel of the main shaft of the ice-making bucket 3. The atomizing direct nozzles 15 uniformly spray the pressurized seawater in the form of mist onto the inner wall of the ice-making bucket 3. After heat exchange with the refrigerant, ice sheets with a certain uniform thickness are formed on the inner wall of the ice-making bucket 3. The residual seawater further completes the ice-making action through the compensation ice-making section arranged at the bottom of the inner wall of the ice-making cylinder, reducing the residual amount of seawater during the ice-making process. And a water receiving tank is provided at the bottom, which can separate the residual seawater from the ice sheets, and its ice production is 7 tons per day.

[0043] The above further details the above content of the present invention in combination with the specific implementation manners of the embodiments described in the accompanying drawings. However, this should not be understood as limiting the scope of the above subject matter of the present invention to the following examples. Without departing from the above technical ideas of the present invention, various substitutions or changes made according to the common general knowledge and conventional means in the art should be included within the scope of the present invention.
