[0025] The present invention is provided with a rotating component. When the scraper moves, it drives the second ring gear to slide on the outer wall of the guide rod. The movement of the second ring gear drives the slider to slide in the inner wall of the slide groove, and the second ring gear is rotated by the guidance of the slide groove. The rotation of the second ring gear drives the rotation of the first ring gear. The rotation of the first ring gear drives the rotation of the bristles, so that the brush rotates when cleaning the outer wall of a certain tube bundle. The bristles can penetrate into the tiny gaps and hard-to-reach areas on the outer wall of the tube bundle to further brush away residual sediments. The bristles are soft and elastic and can fit tightly to the outer wall of the tube bundle to ensure thorough cleaning, thereby ensuring the heat exchange efficiency of the device.

[0026] The present invention is provided with a cleaning component.

One end of the reciprocating screw rod 11 is fixedly connected to a first rotating shaft 13, and the first rotating shaft 13 is rotatably installed inside the partition 3. The end of the first rotating shaft 13 away from the reciprocating screw rod 11 is fixedly connected to a first bevel gear 14, and the top end of the first bevel gear 14 is meshed with a second bevel gear 15. The top end of the second bevel gear 15 is fixedly installed with a second rotating shaft 16, and the top end of the second rotating shaft 16 is fixedly connected to a deflector blade 17, and the deflector blade 17 is arranged below the cold fluid inlet 2.

[0042] The baffle 6 is rotatably connected to the reciprocating screw 11;

[0043] The outer wall of the reciprocating screw rod 11 is provided with several sections of reciprocating threads, so that the scraper 10 between each two baffles 6 moves back and forth;

[0044] During operation, the cold fluid enters the shell 1 from the cold fluid inlet 2 and drives the deflector blades 17 to rotate. The rotation of the deflector blades 17 drives the rotation of the second rotating shaft 16. The rotation of the second rotating shaft 16 drives the rotation of the second bevel gear 15. The rotation of the second bevel gear 15 drives the rotation of the first bevel gear 14. The rotation of the first bevel gear 14 drives the rotation of the first rotating shaft 13. The rotation of the first rotating shaft 13 drives the rotation of the reciprocating screw 11. The rotation of the reciprocating screw 11 drives the scraper 10 to move back and forth between every two deflector plates 6 to scrape the inner wall of the shell 1 and the outer wall of the tube bundle 4, reducing the influence of impurity deposition on the heat exchange efficiency during operation, which not only ensures the heat exchange efficiency but also reduces maintenance workload and downtime.

[0046] The outer wall of each tube bundle 4 is provided with a first ring gear 19;

[0047] When the scraper 10 moves, the scraper 10 drives the first ring gear 19 to slide on the outer wall of the tube bundle 4, and the bristles 20 clean the outer wall of the tube bundle 4, which helps to remove dust, dirt or other deposits accumulated on the outer wall of the tube bundle 4.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a first brush plate 18 is installed on the outer wall of the scraper 10, and the first brush plate 18 is slidably connected to the scraper 10 through a moving component.

[0049] When the scraper 10 moves, it drives the first brush plate 18 to move, so that the outer wall brush of the first brush plate 18 contacts the inner wall of the shell 1, which helps to remove tiny sediment particles or residues on the inner wall of the shell 1 and ensure the cleanliness of the inner wall of the shell 1.

[0050] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the rotating assembly includes a second ring gear 23 rotatably mounted inside the scraper 10, the second ring gear 23 is meshedly mounted on the bottom end of the first ring gear 19, a slider 22 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the second ring gear 23, the slider 22 is slidably mounted inside the slide groove 21, and the slide groove 21 is opened on the outer wall of the guide rod 12.

[0051] Several first ring gears 19 are meshed with each other, and the bottom end of one of the first ring gears 19 is meshed with the second ring gear 23;

[0052] When the scraper 10 moves, it drives the second ring gear 23 to slide on the outer wall of the guide rod 12. The movement of the second ring gear 23 drives the slider 22 to slide in the inner wall of the slide groove 21, and the second ring gear 23 is guided by the slide groove 21 to rotate. The rotation of the second ring gear 23 drives the rotation of the first ring gear 19. The rotation of the first ring gear 19 drives the rotation of the bristles 20, so that it rotates when cleaning the outer wall of a certain tube bundle 4. The bristles 20 can penetrate into the tiny gaps and hard-to-reach areas on the outer wall of the tube bundle 4 to further brush away residual sediments. The bristles 20 are soft and elastic and can fit tightly against the outer wall of the tube bundle 4 to ensure thorough cleaning, thereby ensuring the heat exchange efficiency of the device.

[0053] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the moving assembly includes a transmission gear 25 arranged inside the scraper 10, the transmission gear 25 is meshed and installed at the bottom end of the first brush plate 18, and the bottom end of the transmission gear 25 is meshed and connected with a third ring gear 24, which is fixedly installed on one side of one of the first ring gears 19.

[0054] The third ring gear 24 is not engaged with the adjacent first ring gears 19;

[0055] The inner wall of the first brush plate 18 is provided with a plurality of tooth blocks;

[0057] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, a third rotating shaft 26 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the transmission gear 25 , and a first coil spring 27 is mounted on the outer wall of the third rotating shaft 26 .

[0058] The tooth blocks on the outer wall of the third ring gear 24 are arranged in a sector shape;

[0059] When the outer wall tooth block of the third ring gear 24 engages with the transmission gear 25 to drive the transmission gear 25 to rotate, the rotation of the transmission gear 25 drives the rotation of the third rotating shaft 26. The rotation of the third rotating shaft 26 causes the first coil spring 27 to deform and store elastic potential energy. When the outer wall tooth block of the third ring gear 24 disengages from the transmission gear 25, the transmission gear 25 is reversed, so that the first brush plate 18 slides back and forth inside the scraper 10, ensuring stability and reliability during cleaning.

[0060] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a filter screen 28 is installed at the top of the hot fluid outlet 8, and a cleaning component is provided at the top of the filter screen 28.

[0061] After cleaning the sediment attached to the inside of the device, this part of the impurities flows with the hot fluid to one side of the hot fluid outlet 8, and the impurities in the fluid are filtered through the filter 28 to prevent the impurities from being discharged with the hot fluid, which may cause adverse effects on downstream equipment or processes, such as clogging pipelines and affecting product quality.

[0063] When the scraper 10 moves, the movement of one of the scrapers 10 pulls the connecting rope 30 to unwind on the outer wall of the winding roller 32 and causes the winding roller 32 to rotate. The rotation of the winding roller 32 drives the rotation of the fourth bevel gear 34, and the rotation of the fourth bevel gear 34 drives the rotation of the third bevel gear 33. The rotation of the third bevel gear 33 drives the rotation of the fourth rotating shaft 36. The rotation of the fourth rotating shaft 36 drives the rotation of the fifth bevel gear 37. The rotation of the fifth bevel gear 37 drives the rotation of the sixth bevel gear 38. The rotation of the sixth bevel gear 38 drives the rotation of the fifth rotating shaft 39. The rotation of the fifth rotating shaft 39 drives the second brush plate 29 to rotate at the top of the filter screen 28 to prevent the filter screen 28 from being blocked, which leads to the problem of reduced filtration efficiency. Using the second brush plate 29 to clean the filter screen 28 helps to restore the permeability of the filter screen 28 and ensure the flow efficiency of the hot fluid.

When the outer wall tooth block of the third ring gear 24 meshes with the transmission gear 25 and drives the transmission gear 25 to rotate, the rotation of the transmission gear 25 drives the rotation of the third rotating shaft 26. The rotation of the third rotating shaft 26 causes the first coil spring 27 to deform and store elastic potential energy. When the outer wall tooth block of the third ring gear 24 disengages from the transmission gear 25, the transmission gear 25 is reversed, thereby causing the first brush plate 18 to slide back and forth inside the scraper 10, brushing and cleaning the inner wall of the housing 1;
