Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oxygenators, in particular to an oxygenator with a protective structure. Background Art

[0002] The impeller aerator is a type of traditional aerator and is a machine used in the fishery breeding industry. Its main function is to drive the deep-water impeller to rotate through the motor, thereby increasing the oxygen content in the water to ensure that the fish in the water will not suffer from hypoxia. At the same time, it can also inhibit the growth of anaerobic bacteria in the water and prevent the pond water from deteriorating and threatening the living environment of the fish. The impeller aerator is generally composed of an upper drive cover and a lower motor. A large number of electronic components are installed in the drive cover. Since it is placed in water for a long time, it is easy for water vapor to enter the interior and accelerate the rust and oxidation of the electronic components. At the same time, the gap between the motor wiring harness and the drive cover can easily cause this situation to occur, which brings trouble to subsequent maintenance and repairs. Not only that, for large-scale breeding areas, whether the oxygenation method can be automatically turned on at a time is also very important. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems and shortcomings, the present invention provides an aerator with a protective structure, including a lower casing with a rotor installed inside, and a mechanical seal seat, a direct connector and a drive cover are respectively provided in sequence along the top center position of the lower casing. The direct connector is an umbrella-shaped frustum structure and is composed of an installation box and a connecting shaft, wherein the connecting shaft is coaxially arranged at the bottom of the installation box and is integrally formed with the installation box, the mechanical seal seat is axially inserted into the bottom of the connecting shaft, and the drive cover is inverted and covered on the top of the installation box; an integrated circuit board is installed close to the top wall inside the drive cover, a frequency conversion communication stick and a junction box are installed at the edge of the installation box, and an exhaust valve is provided at the bottom of the installation box.

[0004] Furthermore, the edge of the drive cover is connected to the installation box by screws, and an installation sealing ring is provided between the inner side of the drive cover screws and the installation box to improve the sealing effect between the drive cover and the installation box.

[0005] Furthermore, a retaining ring is installed at the end of the mechanical seal seat with an interference fit, and the mechanical seal seat is locked and fixed to the installation box by the retaining ring. A wiring harness plug and a motor wire are embedded downward along the top of the mechanical seal seat. The wiring harness plug maintains a sealed connection with the mechanical seal seat through elastic support. The motor wire passes through the wiring harness plug and is connected to the rotor and the junction box at both ends respectively. A copper cap is nested at the end of the mechanical seal seat.

[0006] Furthermore, a sealing ring is nested in the center of the mechanical seal seat to improve the sealing effect between the mechanical seal seat and the connecting shaft.

[0007] Furthermore, the driving cover is stamped from a heat-conducting aluminum plate, which can improve the heat dissipation effect of the integrated circuit board.

[0008] Furthermore, the frequency conversion communication stick and the junction box maintain electrical connection, and both have wiring holes at their bottoms. The wiring holes of the junction box are used to connect the power line and the ground line, and the wiring holes of the frequency conversion communication stick are used to connect the communication line and the communication line docking plug-in.

[0009] Furthermore, the side of the mounting box has three equally spaced connection holes for connecting a float rod.

[0010] Furthermore, a clearance fit is maintained between the mechanical seal seat and the connecting shaft, and the mechanical seal seat is connected to the bottom end of the connecting shaft via a sealing cover, so as to maintain a stable connection of the mechanical seal seat.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention can be reflected in the following aspects after specific analysis: Advantage 1: In this application, a vacuum pump can be connected to the exhaust valve, and then nitrogen can be injected to exhaust the air in the drive cover and the direct connection part, thereby reducing the degree of oxidation of the electronic components, especially the circuit board, by the air. At the same time, the electronic components can effectively dissipate heat through the drive cover, thereby increasing the service life of the electronic components and effectively extending the maintenance period.

[0012] Advantage 2: In this application, the remote start and stop and direction switching of the motor are achieved by writing to the control register. In addition, there is a communication line docking plug-in outside the frequency conversion communication stick, which can use the mobile phone APP to control the operation data of the aerator. In this way, the timed start and control of oxygenation can be achieved through the mobile phone, thereby effectively improving the oxygenation efficiency of a large range of breeding areas.

The direct connector 3 is an umbrella-shaped frustum structure and consists of a mounting box 301 and a connecting shaft 302, wherein the connecting shaft 302 is coaxially arranged at the bottom of the mounting box 301 and is integrally formed with the mounting box 301, the mechanical seal seat 6 is axially inserted into the bottom of the connecting shaft 302, and the drive cover 1 is mounted on the top of the mounting box 301 with an inverted cover; An integrated circuit board 102 is installed near the top wall inside the drive cover 1, a frequency conversion communication stick 4 and a junction box 5 are installed on the edge of the installation box 301, and an exhaust valve 8 is provided at the bottom of the installation box 301; the exhaust valve 8 is opened and locked by a sealing bolt, and a vacuum pump is connected to the exhaust valve 8 to first evacuate to a vacuum degree of -0.08MPa, and then fill with 99.9% nitrogen to maintain a slightly positive pressure state, so that the air in the drive cover 1 and the direct connection part 3 is emptied, thereby reducing the degree of oxidation of electronic components, especially circuit boards, by air, thereby increasing the service life of electronic components and effectively extending the maintenance period.

[0016] Please refer to Figure 1-3As shown, the edge of the drive cover 1 is connected to the installation box 301 by stainless steel screws, and an installation sealing ring 103 is provided between the inner side of the screws of the drive cover 1 and the installation box 301 to improve the sealing effect between the drive cover 1 and the installation box 301; the drive cover 1 is stamped by a heat-conducting aluminum plate 101, and the heat-conducting aluminum plate 101 can improve the heat dissipation effect of the integrated circuit board 102.

[0017] Based on the above description, the screws for fixing the drive cover 1 are made of stainless steel, and the installation of the sealing ring 103 can improve the waterproof seal between the drive cover 1 and the installation box 301, and the heat generated by the integrated circuit board 102 can be fully dissipated through the heat-conducting aluminum plate 101.

[0018] Please refer to Figure 4-5 As shown, a retaining ring 603 is installed at the end of the mechanical seal seat 6 with an interference fit, and the mechanical seal seat 6 is locked and fixed with the installation box 301 by the retaining ring 603. A wiring harness plug 604 and a motor wire 601 are embedded downward along the top of the mechanical seal seat 6. The wiring harness plug 604 is elastically supported to maintain a sealed connection with the mechanical seal seat 6. The motor wire 601 passes through the wiring harness plug 604 and is connected to the rotor and the terminal box 5 at both ends respectively. A copper cap 602 is nested at the end of the mechanical seal seat 6; a sealing ring 7 is nested at the center of the mechanical seal seat 6 to improve the sealing effect between the mechanical seal seat 6 and the connecting shaft 302.
