Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of omega ring sealing, in particular to a novel omega ring sealing protection device. Background Art
[0002] Heat exchangers are widely used process equipment in chemical and petrochemical production facilities. They are compact and highly adaptable, especially in large-scale facilities and high-temperature and high-pressure working conditions. However, they are prone to leakage due to medium corrosion, poor gasket sealing, and insufficient preload between equipment flange and tube sheet during long-term use.
[0003] Therefore, the leakage problem of the heat exchanger directly affects the use of the equipment and the safe and reliable operation of the entire system. However, after the gasket seal fails, it cannot be sealed and protected, thereby failing to solve the various problems caused by the leakage of the heat exchanger. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to make up for the above deficiencies, the utility model provides a novel omega ring sealing protection device which overcomes the above technical problems or at least partially solves the above problems.
[0005] The utility model is achieved in this way:
[0006] The utility model provides a novel omega ring sealing protection device, comprising a pipe box cylinder, a tube sheet and an equipment flange pipe side, wherein the side wall of the pipe box cylinder is fixedly installed with the equipment flange pipe side, the side wall of the equipment flange pipe side is installed with the equipment flange shell side, the side wall of the equipment flange shell side is installed with the shell side cylinder, a tube sheet is installed between the equipment flange pipe side and the equipment flange shell side, first welding ring type sealing components are respectively installed on the equipment flange pipe side and the equipment flange shell side, and first omega rings are respectively installed on two of the first welding ring type sealing components.
[0007] In a preferred solution, a stud is connected between the equipment flange pipe side and the equipment flange shell side, and nuts are threadedly connected at both ends of the stud.
[0008] In a preferred solution, the first welding ring seal is connected to the equipment flange pipe side and the equipment flange shell side by welding.
[0009] In a preferred solution, the first omega ring is connected to the first welding ring seal by welding.
[0010] In a preferred solution, a second omega ring is symmetrically welded on the surface of the tube sheet.
[0011] In a preferred solution, a second welding ring seal is welded between the two second omega rings.
[0012] In a preferred solution, a wound gasket is installed between the tube sheet and the equipment flange tube side and the equipment flange shell side respectively.
[0013] The utility model provides a novel omega ring sealing protection device, and its beneficial effects include:
[0014] 1. By setting the second omega ring, once the sealing of the wound gasket of the equipment fails or is not sealed tightly, the leaked medium will leak into the annular storage device of the omega ring through the gap between the first welding ring seal and the tube sheet, and between the first omega ring and the second omega ring, thereby avoiding large-scale leakage and playing a good protective role.
[0015] 2. The combination of the spiral wound pad and the omega ring seal is equivalent to double protection, and the sealing effect is more reliable. After the gasket seal fails, the omega ring seal structure becomes the second line of defense, ensuring that the equipment can continue to operate, reducing the frequency of maintenance, and avoiding large losses caused by equipment shutdown and maintenance.

[0022] Example
[0023] Reference Figure 1-3 The utility model provides a technical solution: a novel omega ring sealing protection device, comprising a tube box cylinder 1 and a tube sheet 12 and an equipment flange shell side 6, the side wall of the tube box cylinder 1 is welded with an equipment flange pipe side 2, the side wall of the equipment flange pipe side 2 is installed with an equipment flange shell side 6, a stud 7 is connected between the equipment flange pipe side 2 and the equipment flange shell side 6, nuts 8 are threadedly connected at both ends of the stud 7, which are used to fix the equipment flange pipe side 2 and the equipment flange shell side 6, a shell side cylinder 9 is welded on the side wall of the equipment flange shell side 6, a tube sheet 12 is installed between the equipment flange pipe side 2 and the equipment flange shell side 6, and the installation method between the two is to achieve sealing by pressing together with the stud 7 and the gasket.
[0024] Reference Figure 1-3 In a preferred embodiment, a first welding ring seal 3 is respectively installed on the equipment flange pipe side 2 and the equipment flange shell side 6, and a first omega ring 4 is respectively installed on the two first welding ring seals 3. The first welding ring seal 3 is welded to the equipment flange pipe side 2 and the equipment flange shell side 6, and the first omega ring 4 is welded to the first welding ring seal 3.
[0025] Reference Figure 1-3 In a preferred embodiment, second omega rings 5 are symmetrically welded on the surface of the tube sheet 12, a second welding ring seal 13 is welded between the two second omega rings 5, and a winding gasket 11 is installed between the tube sheet 12 and the equipment flange pipe side 2 and the equipment flange shell side 6 respectively.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment, when in use, the sealing of the winding gasket 11 fails or is not tight, and the leaked medium leaks into the annular storage device of the omega ring through the gap between the first welding ring seal 3 and the tube sheet 12, and between the first omega ring 4 and the second omega ring 5, thereby avoiding large-scale leakage and playing a good protective role.
[0027] Specifically, the working process or working principle of the novel omega ring sealing protection device is as follows: when in use, the first welding ring seal 3 is welded on the equipment flange pipe side 2 and the equipment flange shell side cladding 6 respectively, and must be pressed with a tooling, and no gap is allowed. The first omega ring 4 is welded at the first welding ring seal 3, and the second omega ring 5 is welded on both sides of the second welding ring seal 13. Pay attention to strictly control the distance from the sealing surface of the tube sheet 12 to the seal to ensure that it is centered. After the assembly gap is adjusted evenly, the positioning welding is uniform and symmetrical spot welding is performed. After completion, the components consisting of the second welding ring seal 13 and the second omega ring 5 are welded to the cladding of the tube sheet 12 , assemble the shell side, tube bundle and pipe box, and assemble them according to the pre-tightening force and tightening torque of the stud 7 recorded in the shell side water pressure test to prevent leakage due to inadequate pre-tightening of the stud 7. At the same time, the flange spacing of the measured equipment must be consistent with the water pressure test data of the pipe side. After the water pressure test is completed, the closing mouth between the first welding ring seal 3 and the second omega ring 5 is finally welded and non-destructively tested. Once the sealing of the winding gasket 11 of the equipment fails or is not sealed tightly, the leaked medium will pass through the gap between the first welding ring seal 3 and the tube sheet 12 and the gap between the first omega ring 4 and the second omega ring 5 to leak into the annular storage device of the omega ring, thereby avoiding large-scale leakage and playing a good protective role.
[0028] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
