Therefore, there are distribution pipes and collecting pipes for fluid flow around the gaskets, and these gaskets can just separate the cold and hot fluids, flow in the flow channels on both sides, and then perform heat exchange through the plates.
[0003] For example, Chinese Patent with the publication number CN109737781B discloses a plate heat exchanger with adjustable multi-partition heat exchange area. When this plate heat exchanger is in use, it can automatically select working plates according to the heat exchange flow demand and adjust the heat exchange area put into heat exchange.
[0004] However, the way this plate heat exchanger improves the heat exchange efficiency is to change the total number of heat exchange plates put into heat exchange according to different flows. Therefore, there are heat exchange plates that are not put into heat exchange, resulting in the situation that some heat exchange plates are idle; this affects the overall heat exchange efficiency of the plate heat exchanger.

[0063] As Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, the protection mechanism 6 includes a seal monitoring module 61 and a buffer module 62. The seal monitoring module 61 is arranged on the side of the heat exchange plate 11, and the buffer module 62 is installed on the cold-side inlet water pipe 21.
[0064] In this embodiment, when the intelligent adjustable plate heat exchanger is working properly, the cold-side inlet water pipe 21 is the cold-side inflow end, and the cold-side outlet water pipe 22 is the cold-side outflow end; the hot-side inlet water pipe 23 is the hot-side inflow end, and the hot-side outlet water pipe 24 is the hot-side outflow end; during use, the cold-side water flows through the cold-side inlet water pipe 21 into the cold-side inlet water pipe 21, and the hot-side water flows through the hot-side inlet water pipe 23 into the hot-side inlet water pipe 23. Then, after the cold-side water and the hot-side water flow through the adjacent heat exchange plates 11 for heat exchange, the cold-side water flows out through the cold-side outlet water pipe 22, and the hot-side water flows out through the hot-side outlet water pipe 24; during this process, the pressure, temperature, and flow rate of the cold-side water and the hot-side water are respectively recorded by the pressure sensor 51, temperature sensor 52, and flow sensor 53;

[0066] During use, the sealing condition between the heat exchange plates 11 is detected by the sealing monitoring module 61, and leakage between the heat exchange plates 11 is detected in a timely manner; the internal liquid is buffered by the buffer module 62 to reduce the damage to the heat exchanger caused by the water hammer effect when the control valve 31 or the electric control valve 32 is quickly closed.
[0067] Embodiment 2: In some embodiments, as Figures 1-5 shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a method for adjusting an intelligent adjustable plate heat exchanger includes the following steps:
[0068] Step 1: When starting to run, select the state of the controller 4. If the manual state is selected, the next step is not performed; if the automatic state is selected, the next step is performed;
[0069] Step 2: The data measured by the pressure sensor 51, the temperature sensor 52, and the flow sensor 53 are transmitted to the controller 4 in real time; the controller 4 makes a judgment based on the collected data to determine whether the end difference T12 - T10 of the heat exchanger is within 2°C - 8°C; if so, step 3 is executed, otherwise, return to step 1;
[0070] Step 3: Whether the water pressure drop on the cold side of the heat exchanger is less than 0.05 mPa. If so, step 4 is executed, otherwise, return to step 1;

[0084] As Figure 1 and Figures 6-8 shown, the adsorption filtration mechanism 7 includes a filtration box 71, an adsorption module 72, a cleaning module 73 and an adjustable sealing structure 74. The filtration box 71 is fixedly installed on the hot-side water inlet pipe 23. An inlet channel 711, a water passing chamber 712 and a cleaning chamber 713 are provided in the filtration box 71; the inlet channel 711 communicates with the hot-side water inlet pipe 23; the water passing chamber 712 is located in the middle of the inlet channel 711; the adsorption module 72 is installed on the filtration box 71, and the cleaning module 73 is installed on the filtration box 71 and communicates with the cleaning chamber 713; adjustable sealing structures 74 are symmetrically installed on the filtration box 71;
[0085] The adsorption module 72 includes a rotating motor 721, a mounting shaft 722, a rotating copper plate 723, a water hole 724 and an electric heater 725. The rotating motor 721 is fixedly mounted on the filter box 71, and the mounting shaft 722 is rotatably mounted in the middle of the filter box 71. The output end of the rotating motor 721 is fixedly connected to one end of the mounting shaft 722; the other end of the mounting shaft 722 passes through the filter box 71, and a cavity is provided inside the mounting shaft 722; the electric heater 725 is fixedly mounted on the filter box 71, and the heating resistance wire of the electric heater 725 is located in the cavity of the mounting shaft 722; the middle part of the mounting shaft 722 is located in the filter box 71 and a rotating copper plate 723 is fixedly mounted thereon; the rotating copper plate 723 is provided with water holes 724 in a circular array; the surface of the rotating copper plate 723 is provided with rough texture;
[0086] The cleaning module 73 includes a discharge valve 731 and a high-pressure nozzle 732.

[0087] The adjustable sealing structure 74 includes a cylinder 741, a movable frame 742 and a conformal sealing gasket 743; the cylinder 741 is fixedly mounted on the filter box 71, the movable frame 742 is located in the cleaning bin 713, and the movable frame 742 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 741; a conformal sealing gasket 743 conforming to the cross-sectional profile of the discharge valve 731 is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the movable frame 742.
[0088] In this embodiment, when the sealing monitoring module 61, the buffer module 62 and the adsorption filter mechanism 7 work normally, the liquid flow between the heat exchange plates 11 is blocked by the first sealing rubber ring 121 and the second sealing rubber ring 122. In normal use, there is no liquid between the first sealing rubber ring 121 and the second sealing rubber ring 122; if the first sealing rubber ring 121 and the second sealing rubber ring 122 leak, the liquid flows through the first sealing rubber ring 121 into the annular confluence groove 611, and then flows into the buffer barrel 622. The condition in the buffer barrel 622 can be observed through the buffer airbag 623 to determine whether there is liquid leakage in the corresponding heat exchange plate 11; when the flow is stable, the spring damper 625 supports the buffer airbag 623;
[0089] When the valve is closed, the liquid in the pipeline impacts reversely and flows through the connecting pipeline 621 into the buffer airbag 623, causing the buffer airbag 623 to expand and compress the spring damper 625; thereby absorbing the impact of the liquid; then the spring damper 625 slowly recovers; thereby absorbing energy and reducing the impact of the liquid on the heat exchanger; the hot-side liquid flows through the hot-side water inlet pipe 23 into the water inlet channel 711, and passes through one side of the rotating copper plate 723 in the water passing chamber 712 through the water inlet channel 711; at this time, the electric heater 725 heats the rotating copper plate 723, making the temperature of the rotating copper plate 723 slightly higher than the temperature of the liquid in the hot-side water inlet pipe 23; the scale in the liquid tends to accumulate on the surface and rough surface of the object with a higher temperature, so the scale in the hot-side water inlet pipe 23 tends to accumulate on the rotating copper plate 723; realizing the adsorption of scale; after using for a period of time, the cylinder 741 drives the moving frame 742 and the conforming gasket 743 to move, isolates the cleaning chamber 713 through the conforming gasket 743, then opens the discharge valve 731 to discharge the liquid in the cleaning chamber 713, sprays the cleaning liquid into the cleaning chamber 713 through the high-pressure nozzle 732, after the cleaning liquid soaks the rotating copper plate 723 for a period of time, the discharge valve 731 discharges the liquid in the cleaning chamber 713 again, and then blows and washes the rotating copper plate 723 through the high-pressure nozzle 732; after the cleaning is completed, the cylinder 741 drives the conforming gasket 743 to reset through the moving frame 742, the rotating motor 721 drives the rotating copper plate 723 to rotate, so that the other side of the rotating copper plate 723 rotates into the cleaning chamber 713, and the cleaned side of the rotating copper plate 723 rotates into the water passing chamber 712; the rotating copper plate 723 is cleaned again in the cleaning chamber 713; realizing the cleaning of the rotating copper plate 723 without stopping the machine, ensuring the cleaning efficiency, and reducing the scale in the liquid.
[0090] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements will not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
