[0024] An arc-shaped extrusion block is installed on the lifting frame, and an extrusion frame is installed in the pretreatment box. The lifting frame drives the arc-shaped extrusion block to contact the extrusion frame, so as to drive the lifting frame to move.
[0025] A microchannel reaction method for chemical industry, which is carried out according to the above-mentioned microchannel reactor for chemical industry, comprises the following steps:
[0026] S1. A microchannel reaction module is clogged, and the liquid pressure in the supply box continues to rise, driving the pressure plate upward and the follower column to move. The follower column moves in the rotating hole, and the follower column moves on the positioning block through the arc-shaped driving groove, thereby driving the follower column to rotate. The rotation of the follower column drives the stop plate to separate from the integrated bracket;
[0027] S2. The stop plate detaches from the integrated bracket, and the spring is expanded to drive the integrated bracket to move upward rapidly. The integrated bracket drives the two rotating lifting rods to rotate. The rotating lifting rods rotate and drive the lifting frame to move through the lifting slide shaft, so that the lifting frame drives the conducting frame to move. The two conducting frames close one switching tube and open the other switching tube. The integrated bracket drives the three connecting frames to move through the three synchronous frames, synchronously completing the switching of the branch pipes on the heat exchange pipe and the liquid outlet pipe, so that the liquid and heat transfer medium are completely replaced in another microchannel reaction module, and the reaction is carried out uninterruptedly;
[0028] S3. When the liquid enters the pretreatment box, it is pre-filtered by a filter cover. The filter cover becomes clogged, causing the liquid level in the pretreatment box to rise continuously. This forces the floating frame to float upward. The floating frame moves, driving the switching rod to rotate through the toggle frame. The switching rod drives the switching column to rotate, which drives the switching sleeve to rotate. The switching sleeve drives the clogged filter cover out of the liquid inlet pipe and drives the other filter cover to connect to the liquid inlet pipe, thereby continuously inputting liquid.
[0029] S4. The conversion sleeve drives the filter cover to rotate to the specified position, so that the lifting frame drives the arc-shaped extrusion block to contact the extrusion frame and be squeezed by the extrusion frame, so that the arc-shaped extrusion block drives the lifting frame to move in the opposite direction and drives the tension spring to contract. The lifting frame moves and pushes the closing cover, so that the closing cover rotates open and the filter cover is opened for use.
[0030] The beneficial effects of the microchannel reactor and reaction method for chemical industry proposed by the present invention are:
[0031] In the present invention, through the setting of the uninterrupted reaction mechanism, when one microchannel reaction module is blocked, the liquid pressure in the supply tank continuously rises, causing the bearing plate to move upward under force, the stop baffle to disengage from the integrated bracket, and then the integrated bracket to move upward rapidly, driving the rotation of two rotating lifting rods. The rotating lifting rods further drive the conduction frame to move. The two conduction frames close one switching pipe and open the other switching pipe. At the same time, the movement of the integrated bracket synchronously drives the movement of three synchronous frames, and further drives the movement of three connecting frames, enabling the synchronous switching of the branch pipes on the heat exchange conduit and the liquid outlet pipe. Thus, the liquid and the heat conduction medium are integrally replaced into another microchannel reaction module, realizing uninterrupted reaction, ensuring the reaction effect, breaking through the limitation of traditional passive anti-blocking, avoiding shutdown maintenance, significantly improving the continuous operation period of the equipment, reducing manual intervention and maintenance costs, extending the equipment life, and thus significantly enhancing the reliability and production efficiency of the equipment.
[0032] Furthermore, in the present invention, through the setting of the pretreatment tank and the continuous liquid supply device, when the liquid enters the pretreatment tank, a filter cover is used to pre-filter the liquid, further avoiding the blockage of the microchannel reaction module. And when the filter cover is blocked, the conversion column drives the conversion sleeve to rotate, causing the conversion sleeve to drive the blocked filter cover away from the liquid inlet pipe and drive another filter cover to communicate with the liquid inlet pipe, realizing continuous liquid supply and further ensuring that the equipment can operate continuously.
[0033] Even further, in the present invention, through the setting of the active closing mechanism, after one filter cover moves to a specified position, the lifting frame drives the arc-shaped extrusion block to contact the extrusion frame and be extruded by the extrusion frame, causing the arc-shaped extrusion block to drive the lifting frame to move in the opposite direction and drive the tension spring to contract. The movement of the lifting frame pushes the closing cover, causing the closing cover to rotate and open, thus opening the filter cover for use. And when the closing cover rotates, it rotates on the connecting shaft through the installation cavity and drives the closing torsion spring to be stressed. Therefore, when the filter cover is not in contact with the liquid inlet pipe or has disengaged from the liquid inlet pipe, under the resilience of the closing torsion spring, the closing cover closes the filter cover, avoiding the problems of the filter cover being blocked in advance or the impurities in the used filter cover contaminating the liquid in the reverse direction.

[0056] Please refer to the accompanying Figures 1 - 15 As shown in the figure, a microchannel reactor for chemical industry provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes a microchannel reactor main body 1. A plurality of groups of microchannel reaction modules 3 are arranged in the microchannel reactor main body 1. The number of each group of microchannel reaction modules 3 is two. A liquid inlet pipe 2 and a liquid outlet pipe 11 are arranged in the microchannel reactor main body 1. An input pipe 6 is connected to the liquid inlet pipe 2. A plurality of branch pipes 4 are connected to both the liquid inlet pipe 2 and the liquid outlet pipe 11. The plurality of branch pipes 4 are respectively connected to the plurality of groups of microchannel reaction modules 3. A heat exchange conduit 10 is connected between two adjacent microchannel reaction modules 3.
[0057] Furthermore, please refer to the accompanying Figures 3 - 8, a microchannel reactor for chemical industry provided by an embodiment of the present invention. An uninterrupted reaction mechanism 5 is installed on each group of microchannel reaction modules 3. The uninterrupted reaction mechanism 5 is used to switch between two microchannel reaction modules 3 in the same group. The uninterrupted reaction mechanism 5 includes two supply tanks 501, which are respectively installed on both sides of a group of microchannel reaction modules 3. Switching pipes 502 are connected to both sides of the supply tank 501, and the two switching pipes 502 are respectively connected to the two microchannel reaction modules 3. A branch pipe 4 is connected to the supply tank 501. Two transfer tanks 518 are provided on one side of a group of microchannel reaction modules 3. Heat exchange conduits 10 are connected to both of the two transfer tanks 518. Connecting pipes 519 are connected to both sides of the transfer tank 518, and the two connecting pipes 519 are respectively connected to the two microchannel reaction modules 3. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when one microchannel reaction module 3 is blocked, the liquid pressure in the supply tank 501 continuously rises, so that the two conduction frames 503 move synchronously. At this time, the two conduction frames 503 block one switching pipe 502 and open the other switching pipe 502. At the same time, the integrated bracket 509 moves and synchronously drives the three synchronous brackets 517 to move, thereby driving the three connecting brackets 520 to move, and then synchronously completing the switching of the branch pipes 4 on the heat exchange conduit 10 and the liquid outlet pipe 11, so that the liquid and the heat conduction medium are integrally replaced into another microchannel reaction module 3, realizing uninterrupted reaction, ensuring the reaction effect, breaking through the limitation of traditional passive anti-blocking, avoiding shutdown maintenance, significantly improving the continuous operation cycle of the equipment, reducing manual intervention and maintenance costs, extending the equipment life, and thus significantly improving the reliability and production efficiency of the equipment.
[0058] Further specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a pretreatment tank 7 is connected between the liquid inlet pipe 2 and the input pipe 6. A continuous liquid feeding device 8 is installed in the pretreatment tank 7. The continuous liquid feeding device 8 is used to continuously feed liquid into the liquid inlet pipe 2. The continuous liquid feeding device 8 includes a conversion sleeve 801, which is rotatably installed in the pretreatment tank 7. A plurality of filter covers 802 are inserted into the conversion sleeve 801. One filter cover 802 corresponds to the liquid inlet pipe 2 and filters the liquid entering the liquid inlet pipe 2. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when the liquid enters the pretreatment tank 7, the liquid is pre-filtered by one filter cover 802 to avoid blocking the microchannel reaction module 3. And when the filter cover 802 is blocked, the conversion sleeve 801 rotates to make the blocked filter cover 802 separate from the liquid inlet pipe 2 and drive another filter cover 802 to communicate with the liquid inlet pipe 2, realizing continuous liquid feeding.
[0059] Please continue to refer to the instruction manual appendix Figures 3 - 8, Further, in a microchannel reactor for chemical industry provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the uninterrupted reaction mechanism 5 further includes two conduction frames 503 with holes. Both of the two conduction frames 503 are located in the supply tank 501, and the holes on the two conduction frames 503 are arranged in a staggered manner. Two lifting frames 512 are slidably installed in the supply tank 501, and the two lifting frames 512 are respectively installed on the two conduction frames 503;
[0060] In addition, two rotating lifting rods 511 are rotatably installed on one inner wall of the supply tank 501. Lifting sliding shafts 513 are rotatably installed on the two rotating lifting rods 511, and the two lifting sliding shafts 513 are respectively movably installed in the two lifting frames 512. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when the integrated support 509 moves upward, the two rotating lifting rods 511 are synchronously driven to rotate. The rotation of the rotating lifting rod 511 drives the lifting frame 512 to move through the lifting sliding shaft 513, so that the lifting frame 512 drives the conduction frame 503 to move, and further enables the two conduction frames 503 to move synchronously.
[0061] More specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, an integrated support 509 is movably installed on the top side of the supply tank 501. The integrated support 509 is movably installed on the two rotating lifting rods 511, and a spreading spring 510 is connected between the supply tank 501 and the integrated support 509;
[0062] In addition, a communication frame 520 is movably installed in one supply tank 501 and the two transfer tanks 518. Two staggered holes are formed in the communication frame 520, and a synchronous frame 517 is installed on each of the three communication frames 520. The three synchronous frames 517 are all installed on the integrated support 509. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when the microchannel reaction module 3 is blocked, the integrated support 509 is released from the restriction and quickly moves upward, driving the two rotating lifting rods 511 to rotate. The rotating lifting rod 511 drives the conduction frame 503 to move through the lifting frame 512, so that the two conduction frames 503 move synchronously. Since the holes on the two conduction frames 503 are arranged in a staggered manner, at this time, the two conduction frames 503 close one switching tube 502 and open the other switching tube 502. At the same time, the movement of the integrated support 509 synchronously drives the three synchronous frames 517 to move, then drives the three communication frames 520 to move, and further synchronously completes the switching of the branch pipes 4 on the heat exchange conduit 10 and the liquid outlet pipe 11, so that the liquid and the heat conduction medium are integrally replaced into another microchannel reaction module 3, realizing an uninterrupted reaction.
[0063] Please continue to refer to the specification appendix Figures 3 - 8More specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a recovery box 504 is installed in the supply box 501, a pressure plate 505 is movably installed in the recovery box 504, and a return spring 508 is connected between the recovery box 504 and the pressure plate 505; in addition, a rotation hole 514 is opened on the inner wall of the top side of the supply box 501, a follower column 506 is rotatably installed in the rotation hole 514, the pressure plate 505 is installed on the follower column 506, and a stop plate 507 is installed on the top of the follower column 506, and the stop plate 507 is used to block the integrated bracket 509;
[0064] In addition, an arc-shaped driving groove 515 is formed on the follower column 506, and a positioning block 516 is installed on the inner wall of the rotating hole 514, and the positioning block 516 extends into the arc-shaped driving groove 515. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when a microchannel reaction module 3 is blocked, the liquid pressure in the supply box 501 continuously increases, causing the pressure plate 505 to move upward under force, and driving the follower column 506 to move, while driving the return spring 508 to contract under force, causing the follower column 506 to move in the rotating hole 514, thereby causing the follower column 506 to move on the positioning block 516 through the arc-shaped driving groove 515, and then driving the follower column 506 to rotate. The rotation of the follower column 506 drives the stop plate 507 to separate from the integrated bracket 509, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic rotation of the stop plate 507.
[0065] For further information, please refer to the attached manual. Figures 9 - 12 In a microchannel reactor for chemical use provided by an embodiment of the present invention, a mounting box 803 is mounted on a pretreatment box 7, a socket 805 is mounted in the mounting box 803, a floating frame 804 is movably mounted in the socket 805, and a return spring 806 for driving the floating frame 804 to return to its original position is connected between the floating frame 804 and the socket 805;
[0066] In addition, a conversion column 807 is rotatably installed in the pretreatment box 7, and the conversion sleeve 801 is sleeved on the conversion column 807. A plurality of conversion rods 812 are equidistantly installed in a ring on the conversion column 807. A toggle frame 811 is installed on the bottom side of the upper floating frame 804. The upper floating frame 804 moves upward and drives the conversion rod 812 to rotate through the toggle frame 811, which is used to drive the conversion sleeve 801 to rotate through the conversion column 807. It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the filter cover 802 is blocked during continuous use, so that the liquid in the pretreatment box 7 cannot flow out, the liquid level in the pretreatment box 7 keeps rising. At this time, the floating frame 804 is forced to float up and moves in the socket 805, while squeezing the reset spring 806. The floating frame 804 moves and drives the conversion rod 812 to rotate through the toggle frame 811. The conversion rod 812 drives the conversion column 807 to rotate. The conversion column 807 drives the conversion sleeve 801 to rotate, so that the conversion sleeve 801 drives the blocked filter cover 802 to disengage from the liquid inlet pipe 2, and drives the other filter cover 802 to connect with the liquid inlet pipe 2, thereby realizing continuous liquid inflow.
[0067] More specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a connecting seat 808 is installed in the pretreatment tank 7, and the conversion column 807 is rotatably installed on the connecting seat 808; a plurality of card slots 809 are annularly and equidistantly formed on the inner wall of the conversion column 807, and a plurality of clamping blocks 810 are annularly and equidistantly installed on the connecting seat 808, and the plurality of clamping blocks 810 are respectively clamped in the plurality of card slots 809. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when the conversion column 807 rotates, it rotates on the connecting seat 808, and at the same time, the rotation of the conversion column 807 causes the plurality of card slots 809 to disengage from the plurality of clamping blocks 810. After the conversion column 807 rotates to a specified position, the plurality of clamping blocks 810 are clamped in the plurality of card slots 809 to realize the positioning of the conversion column 807, so that the filter cover 802 at the corresponding position can stably filter.
[0068] Further, please refer to the attached drawings of the specification Figure 9 and Figures 12 - 15 , a microchannel reactor for chemical industry provided by the embodiment of the present invention further includes an active closing mechanism 9, and the active closing mechanism 9 is installed on the conversion sleeve 801, and the active closing mechanism 9 is used for closing and protecting the plurality of filter covers 802. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, through the setting of the active closing mechanism 9, when other filter covers 802 are used or unused, the plurality of filter covers 802 are closed and protected to avoid the unused filter covers 802 from being contaminated, or the impurities in the used filter covers 802 entering the liquid in the reverse direction, causing the problem of reverse contamination.
[0069] More specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the active closing mechanism 9 includes a plurality of closing covers �01, a plurality of U-shaped frames 902 are installed on the conversion sleeve 801, and the plurality of closing covers 901 are respectively rotatably installed in the plurality of U-shaped frames 902; in addition, an installation cavity 903 is formed on the closing cover 901, a connecting shaft 904 is rotatably installed in the installation cavity 903, the connecting shaft 904 is installed on the U-shaped frame 902, and a closing torsion spring 905 is installed on the connecting shaft 904, and the other end of the closing torsion spring 905 is installed on the inner wall of the installation cavity 903. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when the conversion sleeve 801 rotates to drive a closing cover 901 to move within the range of the liquid inlet pipe 2, the arc-shaped pressing block 908 at the corresponding position is pressed by the pressing frame 909, thereby driving the lifting frame 906 to move and push the closing cover 901, so that the closing cover 901 rotates and opens, facilitating the opening and use of the filter cover 802. When the closing cover 901 rotates, it rotates on the connecting shaft 904 through the installation cavity 903 and drives the closing torsion spring 905 to be stressed. Therefore, when the filter cover 802 is separated from or not in contact with the liquid inlet pipe 2, under the torsional force of the closing torsion spring 905, the closing cover 901 closes the filter cover 802 to avoid the filter cover 802 from being blocked in advance or the impurities from contaminating the liquid in the reverse direction.
[0070] Please continue to refer to the attached drawings of the specification Figure 9 and Figures 12 - 15 Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of lifting frames 906 are movably installed at equal intervals in a ring shape on the conversion sleeve 801. The lifting frames 906 are moved to push open the closing cover 901. A tension spring 907 is connected between the lifting frames 906 and the conversion sleeve 801;
[0071] An arc-shaped extrusion block 908 is installed on the lifting frame 906, and an extrusion frame 909 is installed in the pretreatment tank 7. The lifting frame 906 drives the arc-shaped extrusion block 908 to contact the extrusion frame 909, which is used to drive the lifting frame 906 to move. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when the conversion sleeve 801 rotates, it drives a plurality of filter covers 802 to rotate, so that the lifting frame 906 drives the arc-shaped extrusion block 908 to contact the extrusion frame 909 and is extruded by the extrusion frame 909, so that the arc-shaped extrusion block 908 drives the lifting frame 906 to move in the reverse direction and drives the tension spring 907 to contract. The lifting frame 906 moves to push the closing cover 901, so that the closing cover 901 rotates and opens, and then the filter cover 802 is opened for use; when the conversion sleeve 801 continues to rotate, under the pulling force of the tension spring 907, it can help the lifting frame 906 to reset.
[0072] In summary, the working principle of a microchannel reactor for chemical industry provided by the embodiment of the present invention, that is, the reaction method using the microchannel reactor for chemical industry of the embodiment of the present invention is:
[0073] When a reaction is carried out, the liquid is input into the pretreatment tank 7 through the input pipe 6, then enters the liquid inlet pipe 2, and then enters a plurality of supply tanks 501 through a plurality of branch pipes 4, and then enters a microchannel reaction module 3. After the reaction, it is input into the liquid outlet pipe 11 through the branch pipe 4 on the other side and output. At the same time, the heat-conducting medium enters a transfer tank 518 through a heat exchange conduit 10, and then enters another heat exchange conduit 10 through another transfer tank 518 to complete the circulation of the heat-conducting medium;
[0074] Furthermore, when a microchannel reaction module 3 is blocked, the liquid pressure in the supply box 501 continues to rise, which in turn forces the pressure plate 505 to move upward, and drives the follower column 506 to move, and at the same time drives the return spring 508 to contract, and the follower column 506 moves in the rotating hole 514, so that the follower column 506 moves on the positioning block 516 through the arc driving groove 515, and then drives the follower column 506 to rotate. The rotation of the follower column 506 drives the stop plate 507 to separate from the integrated bracket 509. At this time, under the expansion force of the expansion spring 510, the integrated bracket 509 moves upward quickly, and drives the two rotating lifting rods 511 to rotate. The rotating lifting rod 511 rotates and drives the lifting frame 512 to move through the lifting slide shaft 513, so that the lifting frame 512 can be lifted. The lifting frame 512 drives the conducting frame 503 to move, thereby causing the two conducting frames 503 to move synchronously. At this time, the two conducting frames 503 close one switching tube 502 and open the other switching tube 502. At the same time, the integrated bracket 509 moves synchronously to drive the three synchronization frames 517 to move, and then drive the three connecting frames 520 to move, thereby synchronously completing the switching of the branch pipe 4 on the heat exchange pipe 10 and the liquid outlet pipe 11, and allowing the liquid and heat transfer medium to be replaced as a whole into another microchannel reaction module 3, achieving uninterrupted reaction and ensuring the reaction effect. This breaks through the limitations of traditional passive anti-blocking, avoids downtime for maintenance, significantly improves the continuous operation cycle of the equipment, reduces manual intervention and maintenance costs, extends the equipment life, and thus significantly improves the equipment reliability and production efficiency.
[0075] Furthermore, when the liquid enters the pre-treatment box 7, it is pre-filtered by a filter cover 802 to avoid clogging of the microchannel reaction module 3. When the filter cover 802 is blocked, the liquid level in the pre-treatment box 7 rises continuously, and then the upper floating frame 804 is forced to float up and move in the socket 805, while squeezing the return spring 806. The upper floating frame 804 moves and drives the conversion rod 812 to rotate through the toggle frame 811, and the conversion rod 812 drives the conversion column 807 to rotate, and the conversion column 80 7 drives the conversion sleeve 801 to rotate, so that the conversion sleeve 801 drives the blocked filter cover 802 to separate from the liquid inlet pipe 2, and drives the other filter cover 802 to connect with the liquid inlet pipe 2, thereby achieving continuous liquid inflow, further ensuring that the equipment can continue to operate; at the same time, the conversion column 807 rotates on the connecting seat 808, and the rotation of the conversion column 807 drives the multiple slots 809 to separate from the multiple blocks 810. After rotating to the specified position, the multiple blocks 810 are locked in the multiple slots 809, thereby achieving the positioning of the conversion column 807;
[0076] In addition, after a filter cover 802 moves to a specified position, a jacking frame 906 drives an arc-shaped extrusion block 908 to contact an extrusion frame 909 and be extruded by the extrusion frame 909. Subsequently, the arc-shaped extrusion block 908 drives the jacking frame 906 to move in the reverse direction and drives a tension spring 907 to contract. The movement of the jacking frame 906 pushes a closing cover 901, causing the closing cover 901 to rotate and open, thereby opening the filter cover 802 for use. Additionally, when the closing cover 901 rotates, it rotates on a connecting shaft 904 through a mounting cavity 903 and drives a closing torsion spring 905 to be stressed. Therefore, when the filter cover 802 does not contact a liquid inlet pipe 2, under the resilience of the closing torsion spring 905, the closing cover 901 closes the filter cover 802 to prevent the filter cover 802 from being blocked in advance.
[0077] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, making equivalent substitutions or changes, should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
