[0021] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0022] Reference Figure 1~Figure 4 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, provides a shell and tube heat exchanger for cyanopyridine production, including a shell 1, the shell 1 has an inner cavity 11; an upper partition 21 and a lower partition 22 are respectively arranged at the upper end and the lower end of the inner cavity 11, and the inner cavity 11 is divided into an upper cavity 111, an intermediate cavity 112 and a lower cavity 113; a first partition plate 31 is arranged in the upper cavity 111, abutting against the side wall of the upper cavity 111, and dividing the upper cavity 111 into a feed cavity 1111 and an outlet cavity 113. The material chamber 1112; the second partition plate 32 is arranged in the middle chamber 112, and the second partition plate 32 divides the middle chamber 112 into a first heat exchange chamber 1121 and a second heat exchange chamber 1122, and the first heat exchange chamber 1121 is connected to the second heat exchange chamber 1122; the heat exchange tube 4 is located in the middle chamber 112, and there are multiple heat exchange tubes 4, one end of each of the multiple heat exchange tubes 4 is connected to the lower chamber 113, and the other end is connected to the feed chamber 1111 or the discharge chamber 1112.

[0023] In this embodiment, in order to solve the problem of low heat exchange efficiency between heat exchange media in the shell and tube heat exchanger in the related art, the inner cavity 11 is divided into an upper cavity 111, an intermediate cavity 112 and a lower cavity 113 by an upper partition 21 and a lower partition 22. A second partition 32 is further arranged in the intermediate cavity 112. By setting the second partition 32, the intermediate cavity 112 becomes a first heat exchange cavity 1121 and a second heat exchange cavity 1122 connected in series. After the first heat exchange cavity 1121 and the second heat exchange cavity 1122 are separated by the second partition 32, a temperature gradient can be formed. The flow directions of the cooling medium and the reaction material are opposite. The reaction material cooled in the first heat exchange cavity 1121 will exchange heat with the cooling medium with a lower temperature in the second heat exchange cavity 1122, so that the heat exchange efficiency in the whole process is higher and the temperature fluctuation is reduced. Through the unique layout of the chamber and the heat exchange tube 4, the effective heat exchange path planning between the material and the heat exchange medium is realized, so that the heat exchange process is more orderly and efficient, and the product quality and the stability of the entire production line are improved.

[0024] Specifically, when the high-temperature cyanopyridine reaction material enters the heat exchange tube 4 in the first heat exchange chamber 1121 from the feed chamber 1111, it will enter the lower chamber 113, and the reaction material in the lower chamber 113 will further enter the heat exchange tube 4 in the second heat exchange chamber 1122 and then enter the discharge chamber 1112. The cooling medium exchanges heat with the reaction material in the second heat exchange chamber 1122 and the first heat exchange chamber 1121 in turn, and the heat is transferred from the reaction material in the heat exchange tube 4 to the cooling medium, and the cooled material flows out of the discharge chamber 1112. When the shell 1 has the same specifications, the path and time of heat exchange are extended.

[0025] Further, refer to Figure 2 The shell 1 includes a first body 101, an upper cavity 111 is located in the first body 101; the second body 102 is arranged at one end of the first body 101, the middle cavity 112 is located in the second body 102, and the upper partition 21 is arranged between the first body 101 and the second body 102; the second body 102 is arranged at the other end of the second body 102, the lower cavity 113 is located in the third body 103, and the lower partition 22 is arranged between the second body 102 and the third body 103.

[0026] In this embodiment, the shell 1 is composed of a first body 101, a second body 102 and a third body 103. The upper partition 21 is arranged at the junction of the first body 101 and the second body 102, and serves to separate the upper chamber 111 and the middle chamber 112. The lower partition 22 is placed between the second body 102 and the third body 103 to separate the middle chamber 112 and the lower chamber 113. When assembling the heat exchanger, the upper partition 21 and the lower partition 22 are first fixed to the two ends of the plurality of heat exchange tubes 4, and then the upper partition 21 is first fixed to the lower end opening of the first body 101, and then the second body 102 is connected thereto, and then the lower partition 22 is installed at the lower end opening of the second body 102, and finally the third body 103 is connected to ensure that the connection between the bodies is tight and well sealed, providing a stable spatial structure for the internal heat exchange process.

[0027] The shell 1 structure with multiple main bodies is adopted to facilitate the manufacture, assembly and maintenance of the heat exchanger. When the internal components fail or need maintenance, they can be operated relatively independently, which reduces the overall maintenance cost and difficulty, improves the maintainability of the equipment, reduces the production downtime caused by equipment maintenance, and is conducive to the continuity of cyanopyridine production.

[0028] Further, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The lower partition 22 is slidably connected to the shell 1, one end of the heat exchange tube 4 is arranged on the lower partition 22, and also includes an end tube 5, which is arranged at one end of the lower partition 22 away from the heat exchange tube 4, and a lower chamber 113 is formed between the end tube 5 and the lower partition 22.

[0029] In this embodiment, the lower baffle 22 and the shell 1 are connected by sliding, and one end of the heat exchange tube 4 is fixed on the lower baffle 22. An end tube 5 is provided at one end of the lower baffle 22 away from the heat exchange tube 4, and a lower cavity 113 is formed between the end tube 5 and the lower baffle 22. During the operation of the heat exchanger, when the heat exchange tube 4 expands and contracts due to temperature changes and other factors, the lower baffle 22 can produce a small displacement along the shell 1, thereby effectively alleviating the stress of the heat exchange tube 4 caused by thermal expansion and contraction. At the same time, the setting of the end tube 5 provides a stable spatial structure for the lower chamber 113. Since the lower chamber 113 is formed by the end tube 5 and the lower partition 22, even if different sizes of thermal stress deformation are generated between the shell 1 and the heat exchange tube 4 due to the temperature difference, and a slight displacement occurs between the lower partition 22 and the shell 1, the lower chamber 113 and the first heat exchange chamber 1121 and the second heat exchange chamber 1122 can still remain relatively independent and complete, avoiding the cooling medium contaminating the reaction materials after cracks are generated at the connection between the shell 1 and the lower partition 22 when the shell 1 and the lower partition 22 are connected by traditional means such as welding or riveting.

[0030] The sliding connection of the lower partition 22 can adapt to the thermal expansion and contraction of the heat exchange tube 4, significantly reduce the damage of thermal stress to the equipment, and extend the service life of the heat exchanger. It reduces the deformation and rupture of the heat exchange tube 4 and the leakage of the tube sheet connection caused by thermal stress, improves the reliability of equipment operation, and ensures the stability and safety of the cyanopyridine production process. This connection method makes the connection form of the shell 1 of the heat exchanger and the interior more flexible, which is convenient for later maintenance and cleaning.

[0031] Further, refer to Figure 3~Figure 5 The upper partition 21 is located in the first main body 101, one end of the heat exchange tube 4 is arranged on the upper partition 21, and also includes a first connecting flange 1011, the first connecting flange 1011 is arranged on the first main body 101; the second connecting flange 1021 is arranged on the second main body 102, and the first main body 101 and the second main body 102 are connected by the first connecting flange 1011 and the second connecting flange 1021.

[0032] In this embodiment, the first body 101 and the second body 102 are tightly connected by the first connecting flange 1011 and the second connecting flange 1021. During the assembly of the heat exchanger, after one end of the heat exchange tube 4 is installed at the corresponding position of the upper partition 21, the upper partition 21 is placed inside the first body 101, and then the second body 102 is docked with the first body 101 through the second connecting flange 1021. During the docking process, the sealing and firmness of the flange connection are ensured to prevent fluid leakage and loosening of components.

[0033] The use of the connecting flange facilitates the connection and disassembly between different bodies of the housing 1, making the assembly of the equipment more flexible and efficient, and also facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the internal components during the operation of the equipment. When it is necessary to inspect and repair the internal components of the middle cavity 112 or the upper cavity 111, the relevant body can be disassembled relatively conveniently, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency of the equipment.

[0034] Further, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , and also includes a support ring 6, the support ring 6 has a mounting portion 61 and a support portion 62, the mounting portion 61 is located between the first connecting flange 1011 and the second connecting flange 1021, the support portion 62 is located in the inner cavity 11, and the upper partition 21 is arranged on the support portion 62.

[0035] In this embodiment, the upper baffle 21 is installed by the support ring 6, and the mounting portion 61 is located between the first connecting flange 1011 and the second connecting flange 1021. When the first body 101 and the second body 102 are connected, the mounting portion 61 is clamped and fixed. The support portion 62 is located in the inner cavity 11, and the upper baffle 21 is placed on the support portion 62. When assembling the heat exchanger, the upper baffle 21 is first placed in the first body 101, and then the support ring 6 is installed. The mounting portion 61 of the support ring 6 is installed between the second connecting flange 1021 and the first connecting flange 1011, so that the mounting portion 61 of the support ring 6 is firmly fixed, thereby providing stable and reliable support for the upper baffle 21, and ensuring the connection stability of the heat exchange tube 4 at the upper baffle 21.

[0036] The design of the support ring 6 enhances the stability of the upper partition 21, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the heat exchange tube 4 and the upper partition 21. During the operation of the heat exchanger, it can withstand the effects of fluid impact and thermal stress, reduce the loosening or damage of the heat exchange tube 4 caused by the shaking or deformation of the upper partition 21, ensure the normal operation of the heat exchange process, and improve the stability and durability of the heat exchange equipment during the production of cyanopyridine. It is also convenient to disassemble the heat exchanger when repairing and cleaning the heat exchanger. When some parts of the heat exchanger are damaged, they can be replaced separately to reduce the maintenance cost of the equipment.

[0037] Further, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The lower surface of the upper partition 21 has a mounting ring 7 and a limiting ring 8. The limiting ring 8 is arranged on the support portion 62. A limiting space 81 is formed between the limiting ring 8 and the inner wall of the first body 101. The mounting ring 7 abuts against the limiting space 81.

[0038] In this embodiment, a mounting ring 7 is provided on the lower surface of the upper partition 21, and a limiting ring 8 is installed on the support portion 62. When the heat exchanger is assembled, after the upper partition 21 and the support ring 6 are assembled, the mounting ring 7 enters the limiting space 81 to ensure that the mounting ring 7 is in full contact with the inner wall of the limiting space 81, thereby limiting the horizontal displacement of the upper partition 21, further improving the stability of the upper partition 21 and the accuracy of the connection of the heat exchange tube 4. The accuracy and stability of the connection between the heat exchange tube 4 and each chamber are guaranteed, which is conducive to maintaining a stable heat exchange process and improving the heat exchange efficiency in the production process of cyanopyridine.

[0039] Further, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , and also includes a sealing gasket 9, which has multiple sealing gaskets. One end of the multiple sealing gaskets 9 is set on the inner wall of the limiting space 81, and the other end is a free end 91. The free end 91 faces the first body 101 and is inclined upward. After the mounting ring 7 enters the limiting space 81, the free end 91 abuts against the mounting ring 7.

[0040] In this embodiment, a plurality of sealing pads 9 are installed on the inner wall of the confined space 81, and the other end serves as a free end 91 and is tilted upward before the mounting ring 7 enters the confined space 81. When the mounting ring 7 enters the confined space 81, the free end 91 is tightly abutted against the mounting ring 7, and under the action of the mounting ring 7, it faces the bottom of the confined space 81, achieving a good sealing effect and preventing the fluid from leaking in the confined space 81. Thereby, each chamber remains independent of each other and the reaction materials are prevented from being contaminated. The sealing and stability of the fluid flow inside the heat exchanger are guaranteed. In the production process of cyanopyridine, production accidents, environmental pollution and product quality degradation caused by leakage of materials or heat exchange media can be prevented, thereby improving the safety of the production process and product quality.

[0041] Further, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 The upper partition plate 21 has a receiving groove 211 at one end facing the upper cavity 111 , and the first partition plate 31 is slidingly and sealingly connected to the receiving groove 211 at one end close to the upper partition plate 21 .

[0042] In this embodiment, a receiving groove 211 is processed at one end of the upper partition 21 facing the upper chamber 111, and the first partition plate 31 is connected to the receiving groove 211 at one end close to the upper partition 21 by a sliding seal. During the assembly of the heat exchanger, one end of the first partition plate 31 is inserted into the receiving groove 211 of the upper partition 21, and it is ensured that the sliding seal between the two is good, so that the feed chamber 1111 and the discharge chamber 1112 can be effectively separated. The design of the receiving groove 211 not only ensures the independence of each chamber, but also allows the upper partition 21 to produce a slight displacement through the cooperation of the limiting space 81 and the mounting ring 7 when different thermal stresses are generated between the heat exchange tube 4 and the shell 1 due to temperature differences, thereby improving the service life of the equipment and preventing the heat exchanger from being damaged due to thermal stress.

[0043] Further, refer to Figure 7 , and also includes a limit plate 1022, which is arranged on the inner wall of the middle cavity 112, and the side wall of the second partition plate 32 is sealed and abutted against the upper partition plate 21 and the limit plate 1022, and there is a gap 1123 between the second partition plate 32 and the lower partition plate 22, and the first heat exchange cavity 1121 and the second heat exchange cavity 1122 are connected through the gap 1123.

[0044] In this embodiment, a limit plate 1022 is installed on the inner wall of the middle cavity 112. After the heat exchanger is assembled, the limit plates 1022 are respectively located on both sides of the second partition plate 32, so that the side walls of the second partition plate 32 are sealed against the upper partition plate 21 and the limit plate 1022, and a certain gap 1123 is reserved between the second partition plate 32 and the lower partition plate 22, so that the first heat exchange cavity 1121 and the second heat exchange cavity 1122 are connected to each other through the gap 1123. For example, when assembling the intermediate cavity 112 component of the heat exchanger, first fix the limit plate 1022 on the inner wall of the intermediate cavity 112, then install the second partition plate 32 so that it is tightly sealed and abutted with the upper partition 21 and the limit plate 1022, and finally install the lower partition 22 and the heat exchange tube 4 together to ensure that the gap 1123 between the lower partition 22 meets the design requirements, so that the cooling medium or other heat exchange fluid can flow smoothly between the first heat exchange cavity 1121 and the second heat exchange cavity 1122 to achieve efficient heat exchange.

[0045] The arrangement of the limiting plate 1022 and the second partition plate 32 ensures stable communication and sealed separation between the first heat exchange cavity 1121 and the second heat exchange cavity 1122, so that the heat exchange medium can flow along a predetermined path in the intermediate cavity 112, thereby improving the uniformity and efficiency of heat exchange and reducing energy consumption.

[0046] Further, refer to Figure 8 The side wall of the second partition plate 32 abuts against the upper partition plate 21, the inner wall of the middle cavity 112 and the lower partition plate 22, and also includes a connecting pipe 10, the two ends of which are connected to the first heat exchange cavity 1121 and the second heat exchange cavity 1122 respectively.

[0047] In this embodiment, in this embodiment, when the side wall of the second partition plate 32 is completely in contact with the upper partition plate 21, the inner wall of the middle cavity 112 and the lower partition plate 22, a connecting pipe 10 is used to connect the first heat exchange cavity 1121 and the second heat exchange cavity 1122. The heat exchange medium can circulate between the two heat exchange cavities to achieve heat exchange. At this time, the first heat exchange cavity 1121 and the second heat exchange cavity 1122 have their own independent feed port and discharge port, and the discharge port of the second heat exchange cavity 1122 and the feed port of the first heat exchange cavity 1121 are connected by the connecting pipe 10.
