TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of coal tar separation, in particular to a high-precision coal tar fraction cutting device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Coal tar is a very complex black viscous liquid mixture produced in the dry distillation (coking) process of coal, and its main value lies in containing phenol, naphthalene, anthracene, and washing oil and other high-value chemicals. These components do not exist in the form of a single substance, but are enriched in different boiling point ranges according to their boiling points. This range is called "fraction". Coal tar fraction cutting is a key process step that separates coal tar into light oil, phenol oil, naphthalene oil and other narrow boiling range fractions by using the boiling point difference of each component in the mixture through the physical processes of heating and condensation.
[0003] The fraction cutting device commonly used in industry mainly relies on traditional rectification columns or kettle type distillation systems. The core heating and condensation processes are independent of each other. The bottom reboiler needs to continuously consume a large amount of energy to produce rising steam, while the overhead condenser needs to consume an equal amount of cooling medium to condense the steam. Energy cannot be efficiently recycled within the system. The condenser is prone to condensation and precipitation of fractions on the condensing coil or wall due to inaccurate surface temperature control, causing serious coking and plugging of the equipment, forcing production to be interrupted for cleaning, and affecting the continuous and stable operation of the device and production efficiency.

Detailed Implementation
[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0030] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0031] like Figures 1-9 As shown, a high-precision coal tar fraction cutting device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a separation box 1, and further includes:
[0032] The condenser plate 14 contains a heating tube 19 for heating coal tar at the bottom of the inner cavity of the separation box 1. A float plate 16 is mounted on top of the heating tube 19. The heating tube 19 is a retractable spiral coil structure, capable of compression and extension within a certain range. The float plate 16 is made of a high-temperature resistant and corrosion-resistant lightweight material, allowing it to float above the coal tar surface and move synchronously with the rise and fall of the liquid level. When the coal tar separation process begins and the coal tar level is high, the spiral coil 19 is in the extended position. In the extended state, the coil spacing is relatively large, which can uniformly preheat a large amount of raw materials. As distillation proceeds, light and medium fractions evaporate continuously, the liquid level gradually drops, and the float 16 drops accordingly under the action of gravity and buoyancy. The heating tube 19 moves downward and compresses synchronously, which reduces the coil spacing of the spiral coil. In the later stage of distillation, the heat can be concentrated in a smaller volume, which significantly improves the evaporation efficiency of heavy components with high boiling point and high freezing point, while effectively avoiding the risk of dry burning and coking caused by the upper part of the heating tube 19 being exposed to the liquid surface.
[0033] The float plate 16 is provided with a temperature control probe 17 for detecting the heating temperature of the coal tar, providing a feedback signal for the power control of the external heating system, and the heating pipe 19 is provided with a liquid inlet pipe 9 and a liquid outlet pipe 10 at both ends, and the liquid inlet pipe 9 is connected with a circulating pump 8, which pumps the external heat source (such as high-temperature heat conducting oil) into the heating pipe 19 through the liquid inlet pipe 9, and the heat conducting oil flows in the pipe and indirectly heats the coal tar through the pipe wall, and the heat conducting oil after heat exchange flows out through the liquid outlet pipe 10;
[0034] The separation tank 1 is provided with a condensing disc 14 and a flow guide cover 12 inside, the condensing disc 14 is provided with a mounting groove 141 inside, the mounting groove 141 is provided with a plurality of communication pipes 21 inside, the communication pipes 21 are provided with condensing columns 15 outside, the cross section of each condensing column 15 is a polygon, preferably, the condensing column 15 is a regular triangular prism, and the three outer surfaces of the condensing column 15 are respectively machined with condensing grooves 151 of different structures, the heat conducting oil after heat exchange flows into the inside of the condensing column 15 from the liquid outlet pipe 10, the fixed pipe 20 and the communication pipe 21, the condensing column 15 is heated, so that the condensing column 15 can be kept at a certain temperature (to prevent high freezing point fractions from freezing and blocking in the surface of the condensing disc 14 and the pipeline, for example, using cold water (20-30℃) to condense the steam (temperature may still be at 250-300℃) of these fractions, the fraction instantaneously freezes from liquid to solid, and firmly adheres to the inner wall of the condensing disc and the collection pipeline), so that different temperature heat exchange media can circulate therein, and the same side surface of a plurality of condensing columns 15 is aligned to jointly form a flat condensing plane to ensure that the rising steam can uniformly condense on the plane;
[0035] The flow guide cover 12 is arranged below the condensing disc 14, and the flow guide cover 12 is provided with a plurality of collection grooves 13 at the top, and a plurality of groups of collection grooves 13 receive fraction liquids condensed by different condensing surfaces, Figure 5As shown, one fixed pipe 20 is connected to the outlet pipe 10, and the other fixed pipe 20 is connected to the drain pipe 11. A fixed box 5 is provided outside the separation box 1, and a sliding groove 501 is provided on the fixed box 5. One end of the outlet pipe 10 passes through the interior of the rotating box 6. A drain pipe 11 is provided outside the rotating box 6. The fixed pipe 20 passes through the sliding groove 501 and is slidably engaged. A top cover 2 is provided on the top of the separation box 1, and a gas collecting hood 3 is provided on the top cover 2. The upper and lower parts of the inner cavity of the separation box 1 are connected. The gaps between the condenser columns 15 are connected. The gas collection hood 3 is equipped with a vacuum tube 4 for vacuuming. The vacuum tube 4 is connected to a vacuum pump group to establish and maintain a vacuum environment in the separation box 1, reduce the boiling point of each fraction, and prevent the material from thermally decomposing and coking at high temperature. When the steam is drawn to the vicinity of the gaps in the condenser columns 15, it will collide with the surface of the condenser column (15) with a lower temperature. The components in the steam with a boiling point higher than the temperature of the condenser surface will instantly condense on the surface of the condenser column, turn into droplets and drip down.
[0036] The rotating mechanism is used to drive multiple condenser columns 15 to rotate. The vacuum tube 4 draws the separation box 1 to negative pressure. The heating tube 19 heats the coal tar. Fractions with different boiling points vaporize and rise in sequence. The rotating mechanism adjusts the condensation plane by driving multiple condenser columns 15 to rotate. The vapor of the current target fraction condenses into liquid on this surface. The condensate drips into the corresponding collection tank 13 below for collection.
[0037] like Figures 1-9 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the rotating mechanism includes a connecting rod 29, a rotating gear 22, and gear teeth 28. One end of the connecting pipe 21 passes through the interior of the fixed box 5 and is provided with the rotating gear 22. Multiple gear teeth 28 are provided inside the fixed box 5. The rotating gear 22 meshes with the gear teeth 28. A connecting rod 29 is provided on the top of the condensing plate 14. One end of the connecting rod 29 is connected to the top cover 2. The rotating gear 22 is a complete gear with one-third of its teeth. The top cover 2 drives the entire condensing plate 14 and all its condensing columns 15 to rotate synchronously via the connecting rod 29 until the condensing surface for the desired function is rotated to the working position facing the rising steam. During the rotation of the condensing plate 14, the stationary gear teeth 28 mesh with the rotating gear 22, which revolves with the condensing plate 14. The rotating gear 22 drives the corresponding condensing column 15 to rotate 120 degrees (for the triangular prism embodiment) via the connecting pipe 21, realizing the switching between its three external condensing surfaces. Figure 6As shown, to ensure that the multiple condensing columns 15 rotate smoothly and orderly during rotation and to prevent motion interference and jamming caused by simultaneous meshing, the teeth on the rotating gear 22 adopt a staggered layout design. That is, the teeth of adjacent rotating gears 22 have a phase difference in the circumferential direction, so that at any moment when the condensing plate 14 revolves, only some of the rotating gears 22 enter an effective meshing state with the fixed teeth 28 and rotate on their own axis, while the remaining gears are in an idle state, ensuring reliable and smooth operation.
[0038] like Figures 1-9 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a connecting block 24 is provided at the bottom of the condensing plate 14, and a guide plate 25 is provided on the connecting block 24.

A guide groove 251 is provided on the guide plate 25, and a fixing block 27 is provided at the bottom of the guide plate 25. A top rod 26 is provided on the fixing block 27. A guide block 23 is provided inside the separation box 1. A guide groove 231 that cooperates with the top rod 26 is provided on the guide block 23. On the inner wall of the separation box 1, for each working part of the condensing plate 14... Each workstation is equipped with a guide block 23 of different heights, and each guide block 23 has a guide groove 231. When the condensing plate 14 rotates to switch to different workstations, the push rod 26 moves accordingly and slides into the guide groove 231 of the corresponding workstation. As the condensing plate 14 is finally in place, the push rod 26 is squeezed to a predetermined position under the constraint of the guide groove 231, and transmitted to the guide plate 25 through the fixing block 27, so that it rotates around the hinge point and is fixed at a specific tilt angle. Different fractions dripping from different condensing surfaces are finally guided into the corresponding independent collection tank 13 below.
[0039] like Figures 1-3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, one end of the drain pipe 11 is connected to a heating box 7, the heating box 7 is filled with a high-temperature heat-conducting medium, and the heating box 7 is connected to the inlet of the circulating pump 8.
[0040] like Figures 1-7 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the condenser plate 14 is provided with a connecting box 30, and the fixed tube 20 is connected to the interior of a plurality of connecting tubes 21 through the connecting box 30.

The circulating pump 8 and the external heating furnace are started, the high-temperature heat-conducting medium such as heat-conducting oil is pumped into the heating pipe 19 through the liquid inlet pipe 9, the indirect heating of the coal tar is started, the temperature control probe 17 on the floating plate 16 monitors the oil temperature in real time and provides feedback, the condensing disc 14 is switched to the first station, the plane low-temperature condensing surface of all the condensing columns 15 faces downward, the guide plate 25 is adjusted to the angle matching the light oil collection under the action of the corresponding guide block 23, the light oil fraction with the lowest boiling point is evaporated first, the steam rises to the condensing disc 14, is condensed into a liquid, is accurately guided into the corresponding collection groove 13 by the guide plate 25, and finally flows into the light oil product tank. When the temperature control probe 17 indicates that the light oil is basically evaporated, the condensing disc 14 is rotated as a whole to the second station. In this process, the rotating gear 22 is engaged with the gear teeth 28 to drive all the condensing columns 15 to rotate synchronously, another plane medium-temperature condensing surface is switched to the working state, the top rod 26 enters the new guide groove 231, forces the guide plate 25 to adjust to a new inclination angle, aligns with the medium oil collection groove, continues to increase the heating temperature, the medium oil fractions such as phenol oil and naphthalene oil are evaporated, and the liquid is guided into the medium oil collection groove.
