DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following combination Figure 1-Figure 5 This application is described in further detail.

[0026] The present application embodiment discloses a solar seawater desalination system for ships. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The solar desalination system for ships includes a mechanical filtration device 1, a seawater heat exchange device 2, a reverse osmosis desalination device 3 and a fresh water tank 4 which are sequentially connected by pipelines, wherein the seawater heat exchange device 2 includes a heat exchange box 21 and a heat exchange tube 22, and a support 24 is fixed to the bottom of the heat exchange box 21 to facilitate supporting the heat exchange box 21; the cross section of the heat exchange box 21 is rectangular, and one end of the heat exchange box 21 in the length direction is connected to the mechanical filtration device 1 through a pipeline, and the other end is connected to the reverse osmosis desalination device 3 through a pipeline. Among them, the mechanical filtration device 1 and the reverse osmosis desalination device 3 are both prior arts and will not be described in detail here. The seawater desalination system of the present application is suitable for being set up on ocean-going ships.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The heat exchange box 21 is fixedly provided with an air inlet pipe 25 for connecting to the exhaust port of the steam turbine of the ship, and a side of the heat exchange box 21 close to the air inlet pipe 25 is fixedly provided with an air outlet pipe 26 for exhausting gas, and the length directions of the air inlet pipe 25 and the air outlet pipe 26 are both perpendicular to the length direction of the heat exchange box 21; the heat exchange pipe 22 is fixedly installed in the heat exchange box 21, and one end of the heat exchange pipe 22 is connected to the air inlet pipe 25, and the other end is connected to the air outlet pipe 26. Specifically, the heat exchange pipe 22 includes a plurality of straight pipes 221 and curved pipes 222, and the plurality of straight pipes 221 are arranged at intervals in the horizontal direction, and the arrangement direction of the plurality of straight pipes 221 is parallel to the length direction of the heat exchange box 21, and the straight pipe 221 at one end of the plurality of straight pipes 221 is connected to the air inlet pipe 25, and the straight pipe 221 at the other end is connected to the air outlet pipe 26, and the curved pipe 222 is connected between adjacent straight pipes 221.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 In order to facilitate cleaning of dirt on the straight pipe 221, the end of each straight pipe 221 away from the air inlet pipe 25 is coaxially rotatably sleeved with a mounting ring 27, and a cleaning brush 5 is fixedly connected to the mounting ring 27. The cleaning brush 5 extends along the length direction of the straight pipe 221, and the cleaning brush 5 abuts against the outer wall of the corresponding straight pipe 221. When the mounting ring 27 rotates, it drives the cleaning brush 5 to slide along the circumferential direction of the corresponding straight pipe 221. A driving component for driving multiple cleaning brushes 5 to slide synchronously is provided in the heat exchange box 21.

[0029] When in use, seawater is first introduced into the mechanical filter device 1 through the pump body, and the seawater enters the heat exchange box 21 after being roughly filtered through the mechanical filter device 1. Part of the steam source at the exhaust port of the ship's steam turbine enters the heat exchange tube 22 through the air inlet pipe 25, and then is discharged from the air outlet pipe 26 through a plurality of straight pipes 221 and curved pipes 222 of the heat exchange tube 22 for centralized treatment. The steam source in the heat exchange tube 22 exchanges heat with the seawater in the heat exchange box 21, so that the seawater temperature is increased, and the seawater temperature is increased to a state with the highest reverse osmosis desalination efficiency. The heated seawater is desalinated by the reverse osmosis desalination device 3 and finally stored in the fresh water tank 4 for use. During long-term use, the multiple mounting rings 27 are driven to rotate synchronously by the driving assembly at regular intervals, so that the multiple cleaning brushes 5 slide synchronously along the circumference of the corresponding straight tubes 221. The cleaning brushes 5 slide and brush the surface of the straight tubes 221, so as to brush off the dirt on the surface of the straight tubes 221, thereby helping to ensure the heat exchange efficiency of the seawater in the seawater heat exchange device, and there is no need to open the heat exchange box 21 for processing, so as to ensure the seawater desalination efficiency.

[0030] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 A fixing rod 6 is fixedly arranged on one side of the heat exchange box 21 close to the air inlet pipe 25. The fixing rod 6 is located above the heat exchange pipe 22. The length direction of the fixing rod 6 is parallel to the length direction of the straight pipe 221, and the fixing rod 6 is located in the middle of the heat exchange pipe 22. A rotating shaft 28 is rotatably penetrated at one end of the fixing rod 6 away from the air inlet pipe 25. The rotating shaft 28 is rotatably connected to the side of the heat exchange box 21 away from the air inlet pipe 25. A rotating plate 7 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 28 to realize the rotatable connection between the rotating plate 7 and the fixing rod 6. The rotation axis of the rotating shaft 28 and the rotating plate 7 is parallel to the length direction of the straight pipe 221. The rotating plate 7 is located at the middle of the heat exchange pipe 22. On the side of the heat exchange tube 22 away from the air inlet pipe 25 and the air outlet pipe 26, the rotating plate 7 can rotate 360° and is not easy to interfere with the heat exchange tube 22; the length direction of the rotating plate 7 is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating plate 7, and the distance from the end of the rotating plate 7 away from the fixed rod 6 to the axis of the fixed rod 6 is greater than the distance from any straight pipe 221 to the axis of the fixed rod 6. The end of the rotating plate 7 away from the fixed rod 6 is fixedly connected with a dirt collection frame 8, and the length direction of the dirt collection frame 8 is parallel to the length direction of the straight pipe 221. During the rotation of the rotating plate 7, the dirt collection frame 8 will not interfere with the heat exchange tube 22.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 The dirt collecting frame 8 is provided with an opening 9 for dirt to enter on one side of its own rotation direction, and an opening and closing component for opening and closing the opening 9 is provided on the dirt collecting frame 8. A filter membrane (not shown in the figure) is provided on the outer wall of the dirt collecting frame 8, which can ensure that the dirt will not be removed from the dirt collecting frame 8 after entering the dirt collecting frame 8, while water can pass through the filter membrane; the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21 has an arc surface 10, and the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21 is concentrically arranged with the fixing rod 6, and the dirt collecting frame 8 is used to abut against the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, and the driving component is used to drive the rotating plate 7 to rotate and drive the multiple cleaning brushes 5 to slide synchronously.

[0032] During long-term use, the driving assembly is used to regularly drive the rotating plate 7 to drive the dirt collecting frame 8 to rotate toward the side close to the opening 9 and drive multiple cleaning brushes 5 to slide synchronously, so that the cleaning brush 5 cleans the straight pipe 221. During the rotation of the rotating plate 7, the dirt collecting frame 8 is located at the front end of the side away from the opening 9 in the rotation direction of the rotating plate 7. When the dirt collecting frame 8 rotates to abut the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, the opening 9 is opened by the opening and closing assembly. The dirt collecting frame 8 can not only scrape off the dirt on the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, but also collect the dirt scraped from the straight pipe 221 and deposited on the bottom of the heat exchange box 21. As the rotating plate 7 continues to rotate, the dirt collecting frame 8 is separated from the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, and the opening 9 is closed by the opening and closing assembly, so that the dirt is not easy to enter the seawater in the heat exchange box 21. On the one hand, the damage to the bottom of the heat exchange box 21 by the dirt is reduced, and on the other hand, the dirt will not be in the seawater for a long time, thereby ensuring the water quality of the seawater to a certain extent.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to drive the rotating plate 7 to rotate and drive the multiple cleaning brushes 5 to slide synchronously, the driving assembly includes a reduction motor 14 and a transmission member. The reduction motor 14 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the heat exchange box 21. The rotating shaft 28 of the rotating plate 7 is coaxially fixed with the output shaft of the reduction motor 14. The reduction motor 14 is used to drive the rotating plate 7 to rotate; the transmission member is arranged on the rotating plate 7, and the transmission member is used to drive the multiple cleaning brushes 5 to slide synchronously when the rotating plate 7 rotates.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3In order to facilitate the synchronous sliding of multiple cleaning brushes 5 when the rotating plate 7 rotates, the transmission member includes a first sprocket 15 and a second sprocket 16. The first sprocket 15 is rotatably sleeved on the fixed rod 6. A fixed ring 29 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the rotating shaft 28 close to the fixed rod 6. The fixed ring 29 and the first sprocket 15 are fixedly connected by multiple connecting rods 30, so that the first sprocket 15 and the fixed ring 29 are coaxially arranged, and the first sprocket 15 and the rotating shaft 28 are coaxially arranged; the second sprocket 16 is fixedly sleeved on the mounting ring 27, and the cleaning brush 5 is connected to the corresponding second sprocket 16 through the mounting ring 27. The first sprocket 15 and the multiple second sprockets 16 are transmission-connected by a chain 17.

[0035] When the reduction motor 14 drives the rotating shaft 28 on the rotating plate 7 to rotate, the rotating shaft 28 drives the first sprocket 15 to rotate through the fixing ring 29 and the connecting rod 30, and the first sprocket 15 drives multiple second sprockets 16 to rotate synchronously through the transmission of the chain 17, so that the mounting ring 27 drives the corresponding cleaning brush 5 to slide, so that the cleaning brush 5 can clean the straight pipe 221, reduce the dirt deposited on the straight pipe 221, and ensure the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange tube 22.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 The seawater desalination system also includes a solar cell assembly (not shown in the figure), which specifically includes a photovoltaic panel and a battery. The photovoltaic panel is electrically connected to the battery, and the battery is electrically connected to the reduction motor 14, so that solar energy can be used for power supply, which helps to reduce energy consumption.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to facilitate opening and closing the opening 9 as needed, the opening and closing assembly includes an opening and closing plate 11, a spring 12 and an adsorbent 13. The opening and closing plate 11 is slidably connected to a side of the dirt collecting frame 8 close to the opening 9. The sliding direction of the opening and closing plate 11 is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating plate 7. The opening and closing plate 11 slides in a direction close to or away from the opening 9. The opening and closing plate 11 and the dirt collecting frame 8 are slidably matched through a slide rail (not shown in the figure); a connecting piece 31 is fixed on the side of the opening and closing plate 11 close to the rotating plate 7. The connecting piece 31 is slidably connected to the surface of the rotating plate 7. The spring 12 and the adsorbent 13 are fixed to the side of the opening and closing plate 11 close to the rotating plate 7. 2 is located on the side of the connecting piece 31 away from the opening and closing plate 11, the extension direction of the spring 12 is parallel to the sliding direction of the opening and closing plate 11, one end of the spring 12 is fixed on the rotating plate 7, and the other end is fixed on the side of the connecting piece 31 away from the opening and closing plate 11, the spring 12 is used to push the connecting piece 31 and the opening and closing plate 11 to slide in the direction close to the opening 9, the adsorbent 13 is arranged on the fixing rod 6, and the adsorbent 13 is used to make the dirt collecting frame 8 abut against the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, so that the opening and closing plate 11 is adsorbed and slides in the direction away from the opening 9.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3In order to facilitate the dirt collection frame 8 to slide the adsorption opening and closing plate 11 in the direction away from the opening 9 when the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21 abuts, the adsorption member 13 includes a first magnet 131 and a second magnet 132. The first magnet 131 is arc-shaped and is embedded in the fixing rod 6. The first magnet 131 and the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21 have the same central angle. The first magnet 131 is located on the side of the fixing rod 6 close to the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21; the second magnet 132 is fixedly connected to The first magnet 131 is used to attract the second magnet 132 on the side of the connecting piece 31 close to the fixing rod 6 to slide in the direction away from the opening 9. The adsorption force between the first magnet 131 and the second magnet 132 is greater than the sum of the elastic force of the spring 12, the gravity of the opening and closing plate 11 and the gravity of the connecting piece 31. The side of the second magnet 132 close to the first magnet 131 is an arc surface, which is convex in the direction close to the first magnet 131, so as to achieve the adsorption and cooperation between the first magnet 131 and the second magnet 132. When the dirt collection frame 8 is in contact with the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, the first magnet 131 is aligned with the second magnet 132; when the first magnet 131 and the second magnet 132 are misaligned, the opening and closing plate 11 closes the opening 9 and the spring 12 is in a natural state.

[0039] When the dirt collecting frame 8 abuts against the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, the second magnet 132 is aligned with the first magnet 131. At this time, the first magnet 131 will attract the second magnet 132 to drive the connecting piece 31 and the opening and closing plate 11 to move in the direction away from the opening 9, compressing the spring 12, so that the opening and closing plate 11 opens the opening 9, so that the dirt at the bottom of the heat exchange box 21 can enter the dirt collecting frame 8 through the opening 9; when the rotating plate 7 drives the second magnet 132 to move to be misaligned with the first magnet 131, the compressed spring 12 pushes the connecting piece 31 and the opening and closing plate 11 to move in the direction close to the opening 9, so that the opening and closing plate 11 closes the opening 9, making it difficult for the dirt in the dirt collecting frame 8 to fall out.

[0040] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 A collecting chamber 18 is provided in the rotating plate 7, and the collecting chamber 18 is communicated with the interior of the dirt collecting frame 8. A sealing plate 19 for opening and closing the collecting chamber 18 is rotatably provided in the collecting chamber 18, and the rotation axis of the sealing plate 19 is perpendicular to the length direction of the rotating plate 7. A rotating rod 20 is fixedly penetrated through the sealing plate 19, and the rotating rod 20 is rotatably provided on the inner wall of the collecting chamber 18. One end of the sealing plate 19 away from the rotating rod 20 is inclined toward the direction close to the fixed rod 6. An elastic member for driving the sealing plate 19 to rotate toward the direction close to the dirt collecting frame 8 is provided in the collecting chamber 18, and a side of the dirt collecting frame 8 close to the fixed rod 6 is an inclined surface, and the distance from the inclined surface to the axis of the fixed rod 6 gradually decreases toward the direction close to the rotating plate 7.

[0041] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In order to facilitate the blocking plate 19 to rotate toward the direction close to the dirt collection frame 8, the elastic member includes a torsion spring 23 movably mounted on the rotating rod 20, one end of the torsion spring 23 is fixed to the inner wall of the collection chamber 18, and the other end is fixed to the blocking plate 19. When the torsion spring 23 is in a natural state, the end of the blocking plate 19 away from the rotating rod 20 abuts against the inner wall of the collection chamber 18, and the end of the blocking plate 19 away from the rotating rod 20 is inclined in the direction away from the dirt collection frame 8. The fixed rod 6 is located above the liquid level in the heat exchange box 21, and the distance from the rotating rod 20 to the axis of the fixed rod 6 is less than the vertical distance from the liquid level in the heat exchange box 21 to the axis of the fixed rod 6, so that water is not easy to enter the collection chamber 18.

[0042] When the rotating plate 7 rotates to be located above the heat exchange tube 22 and is in a vertical state, the dirt in the dirt collecting frame 8 moves along the inclined surface toward the collecting chamber 18 under the action of gravity, and then abuts the sealing plate 19 under the action of gravity and rotates toward the direction close to the fixing rod 6, so that the sealing plate 19 opens the collecting chamber 18, and then the dirt falls into the collecting chamber 18, and then the sealing plate 19 rotates toward the direction close to the dirt collecting frame 8 under the action of the torsion spring 23 to close the collecting chamber 18, thereby realizing further collection of dirt and further ensuring that the dirt will no longer enter the seawater in the heat exchange box 21, thereby ensuring the quality of seawater.

[0043] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: when in use, seawater is first introduced into the mechanical filter device 1 through the pump body, and the seawater enters the heat exchange box 21 after being coarsely filtered through the mechanical filter device 1. Part of the steam source at the exhaust port of the ship's steam turbine enters the heat exchange tube 22 through the air inlet pipe 25, and then is discharged from the air outlet pipe 26 through multiple straight pipes 221 and curved pipes 222 of the heat exchange tube 22 for centralized treatment. The steam source in the heat exchange tube 22 exchanges heat with the seawater in the heat exchange box 21 to increase the seawater temperature, and raise the seawater temperature to a state with the highest reverse osmosis desalination efficiency. The heated seawater is desalinated through the reverse osmosis desalination device 3, and finally stored in the fresh water tank 4 for use.

[0044] During long-term use, the reduction motor 14 is started regularly, and the reduction motor 14 drives the rotating shaft 28 to drive the rotating plate 7 to rotate. The rotating shaft 28 drives the first sprocket 15 to rotate through the fixing ring 29 and the connecting rod 30. The first sprocket 15 drives multiple second sprockets 16 to rotate synchronously through the transmission of the chain 17, so that the mounting ring 27 drives the corresponding cleaning brush 5 to slide, and the cleaning brush 5 slides along the circumferential direction of the corresponding straight pipe 221 to clean the surface of the straight pipe 221, thereby reducing the dirt deposited on the outer wall of the straight pipe 221, ensuring the heat exchange efficiency of the seawater in the heat exchange box 21, and there is no need to open the heat exchange box 21 for processing, so as to ensure the seawater desalination efficiency.

[0045] At the same time, the rotation of the rotating plate 7 will drive the dirt collecting frame 8 to rotate toward the side close to the opening 9. When the dirt collecting frame 8 abuts against the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, the second magnet 132 is aligned with the first magnet 131. At this time, the first magnet 131 will attract the second magnet 132 to drive the connecting piece 31 and the opening and closing plate 11 to move in the direction away from the opening 9. The opening and closing plate 11 opens the opening 9, and the dirt collecting frame 8 slides against the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, which can not only scrape off the dirt on the arc surface 10 of the bottom of the heat exchange box 21, but also collect the dirt scraped from the straight pipe 221 in the dirt collecting frame 8. As the rotating plate 7 continues to rotate, the dirt collecting frame 8 disengages from the arc surface 10 of the bottom wall of the heat exchange box 21, causing the second magnet 132 to move to be misaligned with the first magnet 131. Then the compressed spring 12 pushes the connecting piece 31 and the opening and closing plate 11 to move in the direction close to the opening 9, so that the opening and closing plate 11 closes the opening 9.

[0046] Then, when the rotating plate 7 rotates to be located above the heat exchange tube 22 and is in a vertical state, the dirt in the dirt collecting frame 8 moves along the inclined surface toward the collecting chamber 18 under the action of gravity, and then abuts the sealing plate 19 under the action of gravity and rotates toward the fixed rod 6 to open the collecting chamber 18, and then the dirt falls into the collecting chamber 18, and then the sealing plate 19 rotates toward the dirt collecting frame 8 under the action of the torsion spring 23 to close the collecting chamber 18, thereby realizing further collection of the dirt; in this reciprocating manner, the rotating plate 7 rotates multiple times as needed and stays above the liquid level in the heat exchange box 21 to reduce the impact on the seawater quality.

[0047] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
