AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When the diaphragm air pump is lower than the liquid level, it is easy to cause negative pressure, causing liquid siphon, damage the air pump or lose liquid. The existing one-way valve prevents inverting but will generate resistance, resulting in loss of air flow.

Method used

An anti-reflux aeration device is designed, including an air cavity and a bubble device, through which the air flows into the bubble device, and the bubble device generates bubbles. When the trachea is in a negative pressure state, liquid enters the air cavity, and the gas in the air cavity is squeezed into the air tube, increasing the pressure in the air tube, thereby stopping the negative pressure state and preventing the liquid from siphoning.

Benefits of technology

It prevents the siphon backflow of the air pump, which is simple and easy to make, is cheap, has no additional resistance, and will not cause air flow attenuation.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to liquid aeration equipment, and specifically to an anti-backflow aeration device and an air flotation separator. Background Art

[0002] Diaphragm pumps are commonly used for oxygenation in fish tanks and fish ponds because of their low cost and small size; or for liquid aeration in occasions such as pharmaceutical manufacturing, chemical production, or biological cultivation. Due to the special characteristics of diaphragm pumps, if the pump body is below the liquid level and there is a sudden power outage, the diaphragm expands to create a negative pressure, which easily causes a negative pressure to form in the air pipe, sucking water into the air pipe and forming a siphon, resulting in liquid outflow, damaging the air pump or losing liquid.

[0003] In the prior art, a one-way valve is generally used to prevent backflow, but the one-way valve will generate resistance, resulting in air flow loss. There is room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides an anti-backflow aeration device and an air flotation separator.

[0005] 1. An anti-backflow aeration device, the excellent design of which lies in: including an air chamber (1) and a bubble generating device (2); the air chamber (1) and the bubble generating device (2) are fixedly connected; the air flow (QL) path is: the air flow (QL) enters the bubble generating device (2) through the air chamber (1); the bubble generating device (2) generates bubbles (3).

[0006] 2. An anti-backflow aeration device, the excellent design of which lies in: including an air chamber (1) and a bubble generating device (2); taking the highest point of the air flow path as the demarcation point (D); pre-installed or located on the path from the demarcation point (D) to the bubble generating device (2) during use; the air flow (QL) path is: the air flow (QL) enters the bubble generating device (2) through the air chamber (1); the bubble generating device (2) generates bubbles (3).

[0007] Furthermore: the buoyancy of the air chamber (1) in water is less than the gravity of the bubble generating device (2).

[0008] Furthermore: the wall of the air chamber (1) is made of elastic plastic or rigid plastic.

[0009] Furthermore: the wall of the air chamber (1) is made of flexible material.

[0010] Furthermore: the bubble generating device (2) is an air stone, an air disc, an air strip, a porous pipe or a membrane microporous device.

[0011] Furthermore: the volume of the air chamber (1) is larger than the volume of the bubble generating device (2).

[0012] The air flotation separator, supplied with air by an air pump (B), the excellent design of which lies in: having the above-mentioned anti-backflow aeration device.

[0013] Principle: When the air pump is working, the air flow passes through the air chamber without additional resistance.

[0014] When the inside of the trachea is in a negative pressure state, the liquid enters the trachea. When the liquid rises to the air chamber, the gas in the air chamber is squeezed into the trachea, increasing the pressure inside the trachea, thereby stopping the negative pressure state and preventing the occurrence of liquid siphon. Beneficial effects

[0015] It provides a new technical idea for preventing the siphon backflow of the air pump.

[0016] Simple and convenient, easy to manufacture, and low cost.

[0017] Without additional resistance, it will not cause attenuation of the air flow rate. Description of the drawings
