Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of energy conversion technology, specifically to an adjustable pressure energy conversion device. Background Technology

[0002] Heat can serve as a power source to drive mechanical structures and as a heat exchange medium in chemical production. Steam engines can generate large amounts of steam to supply mechanical power or production needs. Existing steam engines use the combustion of high-heat fuel to heat a container filled with water to obtain steam. However, the heat exchange between the water container and the fuel is only achieved through the side wall of the container, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency. Furthermore, the limited heat exchange area leads to heat loss and waste, hindering efficient fuel utilization. In addition, the low heating efficiency of existing steam engines prevents them from continuously and efficiently generating steam to meet real-time supply needs. Therefore, a pressure-controlled energy conversion device is needed to solve the problems existing in the current technology. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable pressure energy conversion device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0005] An adjustable pressure energy conversion device includes a steam generating component, a heat exchange enhancement component, a steam power component, and a gas flow control component. The steam generating component generates steam by heating ignited gas. The heat exchange enhancement component is installed inside the steam generating component to enhance the steam generation efficiency of the steam generating component. A steam power component is installed at one end of the heat exchange enhancement component. The steam power component enhances the heat exchange efficiency of the steam generating component while using steam in water to obtain power. A gas flow control component is installed at one end of the steam power component to control the gas flow direction, thereby improving the gas utilization efficiency.

[0006] The steam generating assembly includes a combustion chamber, an evaporator, an external steam pipe, a gas inlet pipe, and an ignition gun. The evaporator is fixedly installed at the top of the combustion chamber, and the top of the evaporator is fixedly connected to the external steam pipe. The external steam pipe passes through the combustion chamber and connects to the outside. A gas inlet pipe is provided at the top of the side wall of the combustion chamber, and an ignition gun is provided on the side wall of the combustion chamber away from the gas inlet pipe.

[0007] The heat exchange enhancement component includes a horn tube and a straight tube. The small-diameter end of the horn tube is fixedly connected to the straight tube. The end of the horn tube away from the straight tube passes through the side wall of the evaporator. The end of the straight tube away from the horn tube passes through the side wall of the evaporator. The outer side wall of the horn tube is connected and fixed to the side wall of the evaporator.

[0008] The steam power assembly includes a heat exchange tube, an arc-shaped heat exchange plate, and a sliding bearing. The heat exchange tube is sleeved on the outer wall of the straight tube and can rotate relative to the straight tube. Several sliding bearings are uniformly fixed on the outer wall of the heat exchange tube, and the outer ring of the sliding bearing is connected and fixed to the side wall of the evaporator.

[0009] A support frame is fixedly installed at the end of the heat exchange tube away from the horn tube, and a support shaft is fixedly installed in the center of the support frame. Several fan blades are fixedly installed on the support shaft.

[0010] A cleaning port is provided at the bottom of the side wall of the combustion chamber, which can drain the small amount of water that has seeped out and accumulated at the sliding bearing.

[0011] A water inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the side wall of the evaporator.

[0012] Inside the combustion chamber, the space on the side of the evaporator closer to the gas intake pipe is smaller than the space on the side of the evaporator closer to the ignition gun.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:

[0014] The horn tube and straight tube pass through the evaporator. The gas inside the combustion chamber can flow naturally into the internal space of the horn tube and straight tube. The gas inside the horn tube and straight tube is ignited and can effectively exchange heat with the water source in contact with the side wall of the horn tube and straight tube. This enhances the heating effect of the water source inside the evaporator. Compared with the method of heat exchange only through the evaporator, it improves the heating efficiency of the water source and the steam generation efficiency.

[0015] This invention utilizes the bubbles from boiling water as power to drive the arc-shaped heat exchange plate to rotate unidirectionally around the support shaft. The arc-shaped heat exchange plate sequentially drives the heat exchange tube, support frame, support shaft, and fan blades to rotate unidirectionally relative to the stationary straight tube. The rotation of the fan blades can improve the efficiency of the gas entering the trumpet tube and the straight tube, effectively preventing the rapid combustion of gas inside the combustion chamber from failing to enter the trumpet tube and the straight tube, thus ensuring the utilization efficiency of the heat exchange enhancement component.

[0016] In this invention, inside the combustion chamber, the space on the side of the evaporator near the gas inlet pipe is smaller than the space on the side of the evaporator near the ignition gun. The larger space on the side near the ignition gun ensures that during the combustion process, the gas pressure on the side near the ignition gun is lower than the gas pressure on the side near the gas inlet pipe. This facilitates the flow of gas from the gas inlet pipe through the horn tube and straight pipe to the area near the ignition gun, further ensuring sufficient gas supply inside the horn tube and straight pipe, improving gas utilization efficiency, saving gas, and enhancing steam generation efficiency.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0025] An adjustable pressure energy conversion device includes a steam generating component, a heat exchange enhancement component, a steam power component, and a gas flow control component. The steam generating component generates steam by heating ignited gas. The heat exchange enhancement component is installed inside the steam generating component to enhance the steam generation efficiency of the steam generating component. The steam power component is installed at one end of the heat exchange enhancement component. The steam power component enhances the heat exchange efficiency of the steam generating component while using steam in water to obtain power. The gas flow control component is installed at one end of the steam power component to control the gas flow direction, thereby improving the gas utilization efficiency.

[0026] The steam generating assembly includes a combustion chamber 101, an evaporator 102, an external steam pipe 103, a gas inlet pipe 104, and an ignition gun 105. The evaporator 102 is fixedly installed at the top of the combustion chamber 101. The top of the evaporator 102 is fixedly connected to the external steam pipe 103. The external steam pipe 103 passes through the combustion chamber 101 and connects to the outside. The gas inlet pipe 104 is provided at the top of the side wall of the combustion chamber 101. The ignition gun 105 is provided on the side wall of the combustion chamber 101 away from the gas inlet pipe 104.

[0027] The heat exchange enhancement assembly includes a horn tube 201 and a straight tube 202. The small-diameter end of the horn tube 201 is fixedly connected to the straight tube 202. The end of the horn tube 201 away from the straight tube 202 passes through the side wall of the evaporator 102. The end of the straight tube 202 away from the horn tube 201 passes through the side wall of the evaporator 102. The outer side wall of the horn tube 201 is connected and fixed to the side wall of the evaporator 102.

[0028] The steam power assembly includes a heat exchange tube 301, an arc-shaped heat exchange plate 302, and a sliding bearing 303. The heat exchange tube 301 is sleeved on the outer wall of the straight tube 202. The heat exchange tube 301 can rotate relative to the straight tube 202. Several sliding bearings 303 are evenly fixed on the outer wall of the heat exchange tube 301. The outer ring of the sliding bearing 303 is connected and fixed to the side wall of the evaporator 102.

[0029] A support frame 401 is fixedly installed at the end of the heat exchange tube 301 away from the horn tube 201. A support shaft 402 is fixedly installed in the center of the support frame 401. Several fan blades 403 are fixedly installed on the support shaft 402.

[0030] A cleaning port 501 is provided at the bottom of the side wall of the combustion chamber 101. The cleaning port 501 can drain the small amount of water that has seeped out and accumulated at the sliding bearing 303.

[0031] A water inlet pipe 502 is fixedly connected to the top of the side wall of the evaporator 102.

[0032] Inside the combustion chamber 101, the space on the side of the evaporator 102 near the gas intake pipe 104 is smaller than the space on the side of the evaporator 102 near the ignition gun 105.

[0033] Working principle of the invention:

[0034] External gas is supplied into the combustion chamber 101 through the gas inlet pipe 104. The ignition gun 105 ignites the gas and heats the evaporator 102, causing the water inside the evaporator 102 to boil and generate steam. The steam enters the outside through the steam external pipe 103 and is used as a power source or heat exchange source. The water inside the evaporator 102 can be replenished using the water inlet pipe 502.

[0035] The horn tube 201 and the straight tube 202 pass through the evaporator 102. The combustion gas inside the combustion chamber 101 can flow naturally into the internal space of the horn tube 201 and the straight tube 202. The combustion gas inside the horn tube 201 and the straight tube 202 is ignited, which can effectively exchange heat with the water source in contact with the side walls of the horn tube 201 and the straight tube 202, thereby enhancing the heating effect on the water source inside the evaporator 102. Compared with the method of heat exchange only through the evaporator 102, the heating efficiency of the water source is improved.

[0036] As the water inside the evaporator 102 heats up and boils, a large number of steam bubbles generated inside the evaporator 102 will move from bottom to top. Because the arc-shaped heat exchange plate 302 is a uniformly distributed arc-shaped heat exchange plate 302, the upward-moving bubbles can drive the arc-shaped heat exchange plate 302 to rotate unidirectionally around the support shaft 402. The arc-shaped heat exchange plate 302 sequentially drives the heat exchange tube 301, support frame 401, support shaft 402, and fan blade 403 to rotate unidirectionally relative to the stationary straight tube 202. The rotation of the fan blade 403 can improve the efficiency of the gas entering the trumpet tube 201 and the straight tube 202, which can effectively prevent the gas inside the combustion chamber 101 from burning too quickly and not having enough time to enter the trumpet tube 201 and the straight tube 202, thus ensuring the utilization efficiency of the heat exchange enhancement component.

[0037] Inside the combustion chamber 101, the space on the side of the evaporator 102 near the gas inlet pipe 104 is smaller than the space on the side of the evaporator 102 near the ignition gun 105. The larger space on the side near the ignition gun 105 ensures that the gas pressure on the side near the ignition gun 105 is lower than the gas pressure on the side near the gas inlet pipe 104 during the combustion process inside the combustion chamber 101. This facilitates the flow of gas from the direction of the gas inlet pipe 104 through the horn pipe 201 and the straight pipe 202 to the area near the ignition gun 105, further ensuring sufficient gas supply inside the horn pipe 201 and the straight pipe 202, improving gas utilization efficiency, saving gas, and enhancing steam generation efficiency.
