Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air separation equipment, and in particular to a molecular sieve adsorber for air separation equipment. Background Art

[0002] Air separation plant is an industrial device used to separate air into its main components (such as oxygen, nitrogen and argon). These devices are widely used in industries such as chemical, metallurgy, medical, electronics and aerospace;

[0003] Molecular sieve adsorber is a very important component of air separation equipment. It is used to remove moisture, carbon dioxide and other impurities from the air to ensure the purity of the air entering the subsequent process. Molecular sieve adsorber uses the adsorption characteristics of molecular sieve materials to remove impurities from the air. Molecular sieve is a microporous material with a highly ordered pore structure that can adsorb molecules of specific size and polarity. When the molecular sieve is in use, a large amount of impurities will accumulate on the surface of the molecular sieve over time, resulting in reduced screening efficiency. In order to solve this problem, the traditional way is to use backblowing to remove impurities; that is, by blowing air from the other side of the molecular sieve. However, this impurity removal method requires the equipment to be shut down for operation, that is, the molecular sieve cannot be used during screening. Shutdown affects the operation of the air separation equipment and the output will be affected. In addition, the sieve plate needs to be replaced regularly. Shutdown for replacement and shutdown for backflushing have a great impact on production efficiency. Moreover, when the molecular sieve is screening, the side in contact with the gas to be screened has more impurities and higher wear, while the other side has fewer impurities and less wear. However, when the side in contact with the gas to be screened has too many impurities and greater wear, affecting the screening efficiency, it needs to be replaced, even if the other side has not yet reached the stage of replacement. Therefore, the cost is high, and there is a certain degree of underutilization, resulting in waste. Summary of the invention

[0021] The present invention provides a molecular sieve adsorber for air separation equipment. Compared with the prior art, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] The molecular sieve adsorber of the present invention can divide the molecular sieve body into a screening zone, a heating zone, and a cooling zone, and the molecular sieve body is provided with a rotating structure, so that the sieve plate on the surface of the molecular sieve body can pass through the three zones in sequence to work, realizing screening and backblowing to remove dust and impurities at the same time; in addition, the modular design of the molecular sieve is highly flexible.

[0023] In the molecular sieve adsorber of the present invention, the sieve plate of the molecular sieve body is arranged as a movable structure. When hot air is backblown to remove dust, the sieve plate in the dust removal state extends out of the fixed shell of the molecular sieve body, thereby preventing impurities dropped during backblowing to remove dust from entering the gap between the molecular sieve body and the air outlet conveying channel, thereby improving the efficiency of impurity removal.

[0024] The slide provided in the present invention cooperates with the rotating switching component to change the surface of the sieve plate, and cooperates with the pushing component to reset the sieve plate after changing the surface. When the sieve plate that has been used for a period of time is changed, the other side of the sieve plate can be in contact with the hot air input end, and hot air is blown on both sides to remove impurities; ensuring that the impurities are removed more completely. In addition, one side of the sieve plate may be blocked due to accumulated impurities, affecting the screening effect. Timely replacement of the other side for use can avoid the problem of decreased screening efficiency due to blockage and maintain good filtering and screening performance; by regularly replacing the used side, the frequency of cleaning or replacing the sieve plate can be reduced to a certain extent, thereby reducing maintenance costs and operating complexity; similarly, using the two sides of the sieve plate in turn helps to achieve a more uniform wear distribution and avoid the situation where one side is excessively worn while the other side is almost unused, which is very important for ensuring the screening quality; both sides of the sieve plate can be used, which is equivalent to doubling the life of a single side, thereby effectively extending the service life of the entire sieve plate.

[0025] The sieve plate of the present invention can be replaced when it is damaged or the screening efficiency is low. When replacing the sieve plate, it is only necessary to move the sieve plate entering the heating zone into the slideway, cooperate with the rotary switching component to descend, and use the plate changing component to change the plate. For the plate changing of the present invention, the entire molecular sieve equipment does not need to be shut down. It is only necessary to make the sieve plates that need to be replaced pass through the heating zone in turn to change the plates, which does not affect the use of the entire equipment and is simple and convenient to replace.

[0026] In order to reduce energy consumption and collect the heat of the backblown hot air, the present invention is provided with a heat exchange component, which can collect the hot air after backblowing and preheat the air about to enter the heating area. The characteristic structure of the spiral tube has high heat exchange efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Exemplarily, a heating zone, a cooling zone and a sieving zone are formed on the surface of the molecular sieve body 2. Specifically, the area in the molecular sieve body 2 that is connected to the hot air input channel 32 and the hot air output channel 41 is the heating zone, the area that is connected to the cooling air input channel 31 and the cooling air output channel 42 is the cooling zone, and the remaining areas are sieving zones; since the molecular sieve body 2 is always in a rotating state, the sieve plates 22 of the molecular sieve body 2 pass through the three zones in turn for filtering, heating backblowing dust removal and cooling, that is, the cooling air input by the cooling air inlet 15 is used to cool the heated sieve plate 22 and output through the cooling air outlet 16; the gas input by the treated gas inlet 14 is filtered through the cooled sieve plate 22 and then discharged through the clean air outlet 11.

[0045] The slide 6 is connected to the hot air inlet 12 through one of the storage chambers, and the slide 6 is connected to the sieve plate 22; Figure 3 and 4As shown, the slide 6 includes a limiting channel 61, an operating channel 62 and a movable plate 63, a through hole 612 is formed inside the limiting channel 61, and a limiting groove three 611 and a slide groove three 613 are provided at the top and bottom ends of the through hole 612; the limiting groove three 611 is connected to the limiting groove two 412, and the slide groove three 613 is connected to the slide groove two 411; the through hole 612 is adapted to the sieve plate 22, the slider 222 is matched with the slide groove three 613, and the limiting block 221 is matched with the limiting groove three 611; a circular hole is provided inside the operating channel 62, and the diameter of the circular hole is larger than the longest side of the sieve plate 22, so that the sieve plate 22 can rotate in the circular hole, and a movable plate 63 is provided at the bottom end of the operating channel 62; a limiting groove four 631 is provided on the surface of the movable plate 63, the limiting groove four 631 is connected to the limiting groove three 611, and the limiting groove four 631 is matched with the slider 222.

[0046] A pushing assembly 5 for limiting the movement of the sieve plate 22 and pushing the sieve plate 22 to reset is provided at one end of the inner part of the slideway 6; wherein the pushing assembly 5 comprises a pushing frame 51 and an electric push rod 1 52, the pushing frame 51 adopts a "cross" structure, the electric push rod 1 52 is located inside the operating channel 62, and the output end of the electric push rod 1 52 is connected to the pushing frame 51;

When the sieve plate 22 enters the movable plate 63, that is, reaches the operating channel 62, the rotation motor 72 is started, and the rotation of the rotation motor 72 can make the movable plate 63 of the disc structure drive the sieve plate 22 to rotate 180°, so as to change the surface of the sieve plate 22;

[0048] In order to upgrade the sieve plate 22, so as to facilitate the replacement of the sieve plate 22 later, and reduce the overflow of internal hot air when the sieve plate 22 is raised or lowered; the rotary switching assembly 7 also includes a plate tooth 1 73, a vertical plate 74, an inclined plate 75, a plate tooth 2 76 and a gear 77; Figure 6 As shown, the side of the limiting channel 61 is provided with a plug hole 614, the plug hole 614 is matched with the inclined plate 75, and the bottom end of the side of the inclined plate 75 is provided with a plate tooth 2 76; the side of the rotating motor 72 is provided with a vertical plate 74, and the side of the vertical plate 74 is provided with a plate tooth 1 73; the gear 77 is matched with the plate tooth 1 73 and the plate tooth 2 76.

[0049] Now, the state of the molecular sieve body 2 when in use is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0050] Use state 1: when the push assembly 5 limits the screen plate 22 to be in state 1, Figure 3 As shown, the hot air input from the hot air inlet 12 pushes the sieve plate 22 in the storage chamber connected to the air inlet conveyor belt 3 to extend outward from the fixed shell 21, so as to blow back the sieve plate 22 to remove dust; in this state, the electric push rod 52 is first started to push the push frame 51 to the position as shown in FIG. Figure 3 The molecular sieve body 2 is then rotated so that a sieve plate 22 in the heating zone is between the hot air input channel 32 and the hot air output channel 41, that is, in the heating zone, an adjacent sieve plate 22 is between the cooling air input channel 31 and the cooling air output channel 42, and the other sieve plates 22 are in the screening zone; the hot air input through the hot air inlet 12 pushes the sieve plate 22 in the heating zone to move from the fixed shell 21 to the hot air output channel 41, that is, the limit block 221 and the slider 222 of the sieve plate 22 partially enter the limit groove 412 and the slide groove 411 and stop under the obstruction of the push frame 51; at this time, the impurities in the sieve plate 22 in the heating zone are blown off by the hot air and discharged through the hot air outlet 13 along the slide 6.

[0051] When hot air is blown back to remove dust, the sieve plate in the dust removal state extends out of the fixed shell 21 of the molecular sieve body 2 to prevent impurities dropped during the backblowing dust removal from entering the gap between the molecular sieve body 2 and the air outlet conveying channel 4, thereby improving the efficiency of impurity removal.

[0052] Use state 2: when the pushing component 5 restricts the sieve plate 22 to be in state 2, the hot air input from the hot air inlet 12 pushes the sieve plate 22 in the storage chamber to completely enter the slideway 6 and cooperate with the rotation switching component 7 to rotate the sieve plate 22 180°; Figure 8 As shown, the electric push rod 1 52 is on the right side of the movable plate 63. At this time, the sieve plate 22 entering the hot air push heating zone enters the hot air output channel 41, passes through the hot air output channel 41, and enters the limit channel 61. When entering, the sieve plate 22 enters the through hole 612, and the limit block 221 and the slider 222 of the sieve plate 22 enter the limit groove 3 611 and the slide groove 3 613, and then enters the operation channel 62. The limit block 221 at the bottom of the sieve plate 22 entering the operation channel 62 enters the limit groove 4 631 on the surface of the movable plate 63. At this time, under the obstruction of the pushing component 5, the sieve plate 22 stops moving, and the rotating motor 72 is started, so that the sieve plate 22 entering the surface of the movable plate 63 can be rotated 180° to complete the surface change. After the surface change, start the electric push rod 1 52, and use the electric push rod 1 52 to push the sieve plate 22 after the surface change to reset;

[0053] After the sieve plate 22 is rotated and used for a period of time, the sieve plate 22 is pushed into the slideway 6 by hot air, and the sieve plate 22 is changed by the rotating switching component 7. The sieve plate 22 after the change of surface is reset by cooperating with the pushing component 5. The sieve plate 22 that has been used for a period of time is changed, so that the other side of the sieve plate 22 can be in contact with the hot air input end, and hot air is blown on both sides to remove impurities; ensure that the impurities are removed more completely. In addition, one side of the sieve plate 22 may be blocked by accumulated impurities, affecting the screening effect. Timely replacement of the other side for use can avoid the problem of reduced screening efficiency due to blockage and maintain good filtering and screening performance; by regularly changing the use side, the frequency of cleaning or replacing the sieve plate 22 can be reduced to a certain extent, thereby reducing maintenance costs and operating complexity; similarly, using the two sides of the sieve plate 22 in turn helps to achieve a more uniform wear distribution and avoid excessive wear on one side while the other side is almost unused, which is very important for ensuring screening quality; both sides of the sieve plate 22 can be used, which is equivalent to doubling the life of a single side, thereby effectively extending the service life of the entire sieve plate 22.

[0054] Use state three: when the pushing component 5 restricts the sieve plate 22 to be in state three, the hot air input from the hot air inlet 12 pushes the sieve plate 22 in the storage chamber to completely enter the slideway 6, and the rotating switching component 7 drives the sieve plate 22 to rise and fall to cooperate with the plate changing component 8 to replace the sieve plate 22; Fig. 9As shown, specifically, when the sieve plate 22 needs to be replaced after being used for a period of time, the sieve plate 22 to be replaced is placed in the heating zone. At this time, the state of the pushing component 5 is the same as the state 2. As the hot air pushes the sieve plate 22 to reach the surface of the movable plate 63 along the path of the state 2, the electric push rod 2 71 slowly retracts. During the retraction process, the electric push rod 2 71 meshes with the gear 77 through the plate tooth 1 73. As the electric push rod 2 71 continues to descend, it drives the gear 77 to rotate, thereby driving the plate tooth 2 76 meshing with the gear 77 to move, and driving the inclined plate 75 to rise. Inserted into the socket 614, it blocks the hot air from escaping from the opening formed by the movable plate 63; when the electric push rod 2 71 drives the movable plate 63 and the sieve plate 22 to be replaced is at the side of the plate changing assembly 8, the plate changing assembly 8 is used to replace the sieve plate 22; specifically, the plate changing assembly 8 includes a pushing plate 81, an electric push rod 3 82, a storage table 83 and an outer box 84; a storage table 83 is provided inside the outer box 84, and an electric push rod 3 82 is provided on the side of the outer box 84; the output end of the electric push rod 3 82 is connected to the pushing plate 81. When replacing the plate, the electric push rod 3 82 is started, and the push plate 81 is pushed by the electric push rod 3 82 to push the new sieve plate 22 against the sieve plate 22 to be replaced, until the new sieve plate 22 pushes down the sieve plate 22 to be replaced, and the replacement is completed. The surface of the storage table 83 is used to place the new sieve plate 22. The surface of the storage table 83 can be provided with a groove. When the movable plate 63 descends to the same height as the storage table 83, the groove on the surface of the storage table 83 and the limiting groove 4 631 on the surface of the movable plate 63 are connected to each other, so as to facilitate the replacement of the new sieve plate 22. The replaced sieve plate enters the heating zone under the action of the electric push rod 2 71 and the electric push rod 1 52.

[0055] When the sieve plate 22 is damaged or the screening efficiency is low, the sieve plate 22 is replaced. When the sieve plate 22 is replaced, it is only necessary to move the sieve plate 22 entering the heating zone into the slideway 6, cooperate with the rotary switching component 7 to descend, and use the plate changing component 8 to change the plate. For the plate changing of the present invention, the entire molecular sieve equipment does not need to be shut down. It is only necessary to make the sieve plates 22 that need to be replaced pass through the heating zone in turn to change the plate, which does not affect the use of the entire equipment and is simple and convenient to replace.

[0056] In order to reduce energy consumption and collect the heat of the back-blown hot air, the present invention also includes a heat exchange component 9, which includes a shell 91, a spiral tube 92, a heater 93 and a fan 94; the clean air outlet 11 is connected to two pipes, one of which is connected to the cooling air inlet 15, that is, to provide cooling air; the cooling air outlet 16 is connected to one end of the shell 91, and a conically coiled spiral tube 92 is provided in the shell 91; one end of the spiral tube 92 is connected to the hot air outlet 13, and the other end of the spiral tube 92 extends out of the shell 91; the other end of the shell 91 is provided with a heater 93, and the other end of the shell 91 is connected to the hot air inlet 12 through the fan 94. Figure 7 As shown, when the present invention is in use, the gas to be screened is transported to the screening area of ​​the molecular sieve body 2 through the processing gas inlet 14 in cooperation with the fan for screening, and then discharged through the clean air outlet 11, and a part of the discharged gas enters the cooling air inlet 15, passes through the cooling area of ​​the molecular sieve body 2 and is discharged from the cooling air outlet 16, enters the shell 91, and is heated by the heater 93. Then, it is transported to the heating area of ​​the molecular sieve body 2 through the fan 94 for backblowing, and the high-temperature air output by backblowing is input into the spiral tube 92 through the hot air outlet 13, and the hot air in the spiral tube 92 preheats the cooling air entering the shell 91; after working for a predetermined time, the drive component 28 is started, and the drive component 28 drives the molecular sieve body 2 to rotate, exemplarily rotating 60°; heating, cooling and screening can continue to work during the rotation; the rotating switched sieve plate 22 is heated, cooled and screened in turn; for the sieve plate 22 entering the heating area, the state one work is performed when backblowing; and the state two and state three work can also be set regularly.
