DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] See also Figure 1-Figure 5The present embodiment provides an anti-backflow aeration cavitation reduction device, comprising an air source, a gas channel 10 and an anti-backflow component; the present embodiment uses an air compressor and a pressure-stabilizing air storage bin 30 as air sources for air supply, and the pressure-stabilizing air storage bin 30 is provided with two air inlets 31, and the two air inlets 31 are respectively provided on the circumferential surface of the pressure-stabilizing air storage bin 30, and the two air inlets 31 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the pressure-stabilizing air storage bin 30, and the two air inlets 31 are both connected to the air compressor to introduce the compressed air generated by the air compressor into the pressure-stabilizing air storage bin 30. In the present embodiment, the pressure-stabilizing air storage bin 30 can play the role of pressure-stabilizing air storage, and a pressure gauge is provided in the pressure-stabilizing air storage bin 30, so that the air pressure in the pressure-stabilizing air storage bin 30 can be known.

[0032] The anti-backflow component includes n baffles 12 and n springs 13. In this embodiment, n=3 is further preferred, that is, the anti-backflow component includes three baffles 12 and three springs 13. The pressure-stabilizing gas storage tank 30 is axially connected to the gas channel 10. The three baffles 12 are hinged to the inner wall of the gas channel 10. The three baffles 12 are combined to form a shielding portion 11 for shielding the outlet of the gas channel 10. One end of a spring 13 is fixedly connected to a side of a baffle 12 away from the gas source, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the gas channel 10.

[0033] In this embodiment, the three baffles 12 are exactly the same. The shielding portion 11 formed by the three exactly the same baffles 12 can be regarded as a three-part opening. When gas with sufficient pressure is introduced, the three-part opening opens and the gas flows out from here; when there is no ventilation or insufficient gas pressure, the three-part opening closes to prevent liquid from flowing back into the gas channel 10.

[0034] In this embodiment, the shielding portion 11 formed by the three baffles 12 is conical, and the top of the conical shielding portion 11 faces the side away from the air source. Such a design makes it difficult for the external liquid to break through the conical structure formed by the three baffles 12 even if there is a certain pressure when there is no ventilation or insufficient air pressure (that is, when the three-part opening is closed), thereby better preventing the backflow of liquid.

[0035] Specifically, the spring 13 is in a compressed state when the gas delivery pressure is large enough. At this time, the three-part opening is expanded to open the gas channel 10, and the high-pressure gas is delivered to the hydraulic machinery through the opened three-part opening; when the pressure of the mixed gas is insufficient, the spring 13 is restored from a compressed state to a relaxed state, thereby closing the three-part opening. At this time, due to insufficient gas mixing pressure, liquid backflow in the hydraulic machinery is prone to occur, but the liquid pressure in the hydraulic machinery generally cannot cause the spring 13 to deform, and the three-part opening is always in a closed state, completely isolating the backflowing liquid from the gas storage area of ​​the pressure-stabilizing gas storage tank 30, so that the backflowing liquid cannot enter the gas storage area of ​​the pressure-stabilizing gas storage tank 30, which can prevent the occurrence of backflow to the greatest extent.

[0036] In order to solve the problem of liquid backflow caused by insufficient air pressure due to low temperature in high altitude areas, the present embodiment further provides a heating component 20 between the anti-backflow component and the gas source for heating the gas and then delivering it to the anti-backflow component.

[0037] The heating assembly 20 of this embodiment includes an air intake pipe group 23, a heat exchange pipe group 21 and a circulating return pipe 25. One end of the air intake pipe group 23 is connected to the pressure-stabilizing gas storage tank 30, and the other end is connected to the gas channel 10. The heat exchange pipe group 21 is arranged on the outer periphery of the air intake pipe group 23, and a water pump is provided on the circulating return pipe 25. The heat exchange pipe group 21 is connected to the high-temperature water supply device through the circulating return pipe 25.

[0038] Specifically, see Figure 2 In this embodiment, the air intake pipe group 23 is further designed as 28 air intake branches 24 arranged in parallel. The air intake branches 24 are in the shape of regular circular tubes and are distributed at equal distances. The circular tubular air intake branches 24 can ensure the stability of the flow state of the compressed gas. The heat exchange tube group 21 includes multiple heat exchange tube racks. A heat exchange tube rack is constructed by multiple heat exchange tube bodies 22 to form a regular polygonal frame with a regular polygonal cross section; an air intake branch 24 is arranged in a heat exchange tube rack and is arranged parallel to the heat exchange tube rack; the cross section of the heat exchange tube rack is a regular hexagon, and the sides of multiple heat exchange tube racks are sequentially fitted to form a heat exchange tube group 21 frame with a honeycomb cross section. High-temperature water flows in the pipes of the heat exchange tube body 22, exchanges heat with the gas in the air intake branch 24, and plays a role in heating the gas;

[0039] A small water pump is provided in the area of ​​the circulating return water pipe 25, and high-temperature water flows from the circulating return water pipe 25 into the heat exchange tube group 21, and the circulating return water pipe 25 plays the role of water circulation; the honeycomb heat exchange tube group 21 can be heated in close contact with the air intake pipe group 23, and has a better heat exchange effect, and continuous heat exchange is carried out from the air inlet to the air outlet of the air intake pipe group 23, so as to achieve a better heat exchange effect.

[0040] In order to avoid the occurrence of insufficient pressure of the air compressor in high altitude areas, a pressure regulating component 40 is further provided at the rear side of the pressure stabilizing gas storage bin 30 in this embodiment, see Figure 5 The pressure regulating assembly 40 includes a pressure regulating chamber 41, a piston member (not shown in the figure) and a turntable 42; the pressure regulating chamber 41 is axially connected to the end of the pressure-stabilizing gas storage chamber 30 away from the heating assembly 20, the inner surface of the pressure regulating chamber 41 is provided with an internal thread, the piston member is provided with an external thread threadedly connected to the internal thread, and the side of the pressure-stabilizing gas storage chamber 30 close to the pressure regulating chamber 41 is also provided with an internal thread section 32 used in conjunction with the external thread of the piston member, and the piston member is fixedly connected to the turntable at the end away from the pressure regulating chamber 41.

[0041] Rotating the turntable 42 will drive the piston to move axially. As the piston moves, the gas in the pressure regulating chamber 41 and the pressure-stabilizing gas storage chamber 30 is further compressed, improving the gas pressure corresponding to the aeration, thereby improving the aeration effect. Specifically, the gas pressure determines the expansion angle of the three-part opening, and the expansion angle of the three-part opening determines the flow area of ​​the compressed gas through the anti-backflow component. When the flow rate remains unchanged, according to the formula, (Q is the flow rate, V is the flow rate, and A is the flow area), if the flow area of ​​the gas changes, the flow rate of the gas will also change, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the flow rate of the aerated gas.

[0042] Specifically, under the aeration condition, the air compressor provides high-pressure gas. After the high-pressure gas fills the gas storage area, the high-pressure gas will flow along the intake pipe group 23 toward the gas channel 10. At this time, under the pressure of the high-pressure gas, the three-part opening will be pushed toward the end away from the pressure-stabilizing gas storage bin 30, so that the spring 13 is in a compressed state. The three-part opening is expanded at a certain angle along the center point. Under the action of the stable high-pressure gas, the expansion angle of the three-part opening tends to be stable, the flow area of ​​the high-pressure gas tends to be fixed, and the flow rate of the aerated gas also tends to be stable. When it is necessary to adjust the flow rate of the aerated gas, the gas in the pressure-stabilizing gas storage bin 30 is further compressed by rotating the turntable 42, so that the gas in the pressure-stabilizing gas storage bin 30 is forced to be pressurized. When the pressure of the gas increases, the expansion angle of the three-part opening is increased, and a larger flow area is obtained. When the gas flow rate remains unchanged, the flow rate of the aerated gas also decreases with the increase of the flow area, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the gas flow rate.

[0043] In summary, the anti-backflow aeration cavitation reduction device of this embodiment prevents liquid from backflowing into the aeration device by setting an anti-backflow component; by setting a heating component 20 to change the temperature of the mixed gas and adjust the pressure of the mixed gas to improve the aeration cavitation reduction effect; by setting a pressure regulating component 40 to change the pressure of the mixed gas and thus adjust the flow rate of the aerated gas. The anti-backflow aeration cavitation reduction device of this embodiment is divided into two working states, the fully closed state of the shielding part 11 and the unfolded state of the shielding part 11. The closed state of the shielding part 11 (also called the three-divided opening in this embodiment) is the anti-backflow working condition. The shielding part 11 will separate the liquid in the hydraulic machinery from the air inlet pipe group 23, which can prevent the occurrence of backflow to the greatest extent; the unfolded state of the shielding part 11 (also called the three-divided opening in this embodiment) is the aeration working condition, and the opening of the shielding part 11 can be adjusted according to different gas pressures to achieve the purpose of adjusting the gas flow rate.

[0044] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
