Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pulp molding, and in particular to a waste heat recovery structure for a pulp molding drying line. Background Art

[0002] Pulp molding, also known as three-dimensional papermaking, uses pulp as the raw material and forms a molded product into a specific shape using a special mold on a molding machine. Pulp molding offers advantages such as renewable raw materials, easy transportation, and environmental friendliness. It is primarily used in applications such as lunch boxes, tableware, and product trays. Pulp molded products require drying after molding.

[0003] After searching, the Chinese invention patent application with patent application number CN202411626971.7 discloses a pulp molding thermoforming device with a waste heat utilization system, including: a molding machine lower shell, a molding machine upper shell, a hydraulic system, a hot pressing upper mold heating system, a hot pressing lower mold heating system, a waste heat utilization system, a slide and a steam-water separation system. Compared with the existing technology, the invention has the following beneficial effects: multiple heat exchangers in the heat exchange zone are connected to the cold water inlet, cold air inlet and hot water outlet, and hot air outlet through multiple circulation inlet pipes and multiple circulation outlet pipes to form the cold part structure of the entire waste heat utilization system, and the interior of the load-bearing base is divided into two heat exchange zones to form the hot part structure of the entire waste heat utilization system; the waste heat utilization system can simultaneously heat the cold water and cold air, and finally obtain two heat sources, hot water and hot air, which is convenient for subsequent reuse of waste heat, and also effectively avoids the energy waste and environmental pollution caused by direct discharge of steam.

[0004] Another example is a Chinese utility model patent application numbered CN202121875237.6, which discloses a steam waste heat collection device and a steam collection system for a pulp molding machine. The steam waste heat collection device includes: a heating water tank; a steam inlet box, comprising a first box body and a steam inlet pipe, the bottom wall of the first box body having a plurality of first connecting holes; a plurality of first heat exchange tubes connected to the corresponding first connecting holes; a plurality of second heat exchange tubes connected to the corresponding first heat exchange tubes; and a steam exhaust box, comprising a second box body and an exhaust pipe, the second box body having a plurality of second connecting holes, the plurality of second connecting holes being connected to the other ends of the corresponding second heat exchange tubes. The steam inlet pipe is connected to the steam collection device of the pulp molding machine. High-temperature, high-pressure steam enters the steam inlet box from the steam inlet pipe, passes through the first heat exchange tubes, the second heat exchange tubes, and the steam exhaust box in sequence, and is discharged through the exhaust pipe. During this process, the steam condenses and releases heat, and the hot water generated in the heating water tank can be supplied to the workshop, saving resources.

[0005] Although the existing waste heat recovery equipment can meet basic usage requirements, it consumes a lot of energy to circulate hot air inside the drying line. Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements to the existing technology. Summary of the Invention
