Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a safe distillation device for recovering petroleum ether comprises a reactor 6, a primary shell-and-tube condenser 1, a secondary shell-and-tube condenser 2 and a recovery tank 4 which are sequentially connected by pipelines. A mixture of oil and petroleum ether is in the reactor 6. The oil mixture in the reactor 6 is heated to distill and separate the petroleum ether from the oil. The gaseous petroleum ether separated by distillation is condensed and liquefied by the primary shell-and-tube condenser 1 and the secondary shell-and-tube condenser 2, and then flows into the recovery tank 4 for centralized recovery.

[0029] In this embodiment, the distillation device also includes a cold water tank 3, which is connected to the primary shell and tube condenser 1 and the secondary shell and tube condenser 2 through valves and water pipes to provide cooling water for the primary shell and tube condenser 1 and the secondary shell and tube condenser 2.

[0030] The reactor 6 is provided with a thermometer 7 and a pressure gauge 8 to measure the temperature and pressure in the reactor 6 respectively.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] In this embodiment, the internal structure of the reaction kettle 6 in Example 1 is further described;

[0033] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the reaction kettle 6 includes a cylinder 61, the upper and lower ends of the cylinder 61 are open, and are sealed by respectively arranging an upper cover 62 and a lower cover 63 at the upper and lower ends of the cylinder 61;

[0034] In this embodiment, flanges 611 are provided at both upper and lower ends of the cylinder 61, an upper disc 621 is provided at the lower end of the upper cover 62, and a lower disc 631 is provided at the upper end of the lower cover 63. The upper disc and the lower disc 631 are respectively fixed to the flanges 611 at the upper and lower ends of the cylinder 61 by bolt connection, so as to realize the detachable fixation between the upper cover 62, the lower cover 63 and the cylinder 61, so as to facilitate the cleaning and maintenance of the interior of the reactor 6 at a later stage.

[0035] In addition, a sealing gasket is provided between the upper cover 62, the lower cover 63 and the cylinder 61 to ensure the sealing of the connection;

[0036] Of course, in some embodiments, the cylinder 61 and the upper cover 62 and the lower cover 63 can also be fixed by welding. However, it is not easy to disassemble after welding, which obviously brings inconvenience to the subsequent cleaning and maintenance.

[0037] An air outlet pipe 622 is provided at the upper end of the upper cover 62, and the petroleum ether vaporized by heating and distillation is discharged from the reaction kettle 6 through the air outlet pipe 622 and enters the first-stage shell-and-tube condenser 1 for condensation operation; and a discharge pipe 632 is opened at the lower end of the lower cover 63, and a valve is provided on the discharge pipe 632, so that after the distillation and separation of the petroleum ether is completed, the valve can be opened to discharge the grease from the reaction kettle 6.

[0038] In addition, in this embodiment, a detection port 623 is opened at the upper end of the upper cover 62, and the end face of the detection port 623 is sealed by transparent glass. A video monitoring device 5 is arranged on one side of the reactor 6. The video monitoring device 5 observes and monitors the rising of bubbles in the mixture inside the reactor 6 through the detection port.

[0039] It is worth mentioning that a jacket 64 is welded to the outside of the reactor 6 , and hot water is passed through the jacket 64 to heat the mixture of grease and petroleum ether in the reactor 6 .

[0040] A stirring assembly 65 is provided in the reaction kettle 6. Figure 6 As shown, the stirring assembly 65 includes a cylinder 651 fixed to the upper end of the upper cover 62, a ring 652 is fixed to the end of the drive shaft of the cylinder 651, a motor 653 is fixed at the center of the ring 652, and a plurality of stirring blades 654 are fixed to the end of the drive shaft of the motor 653. Driven by the motor 653, the stirring blades 654 stir the grease mixture inside the reactor 6, so that the grease mixture (petroleum ether) is heated more evenly, so as to accelerate the distillation and vaporization of petroleum ether and improve the adequacy of the distillation and separation of petroleum ether.

[0041] It is worth mentioning that during the stirring process, the cylinder 651 is used to adjust the height of the stirring blade 654 according to the liquid level of the grease mixture to ensure that the stirring blade 654 acts on the grease mixture; in addition, when the depth of the grease mixture is greater than the height of the stirring blade 654, the stirring blade 654 can be controlled to reciprocate and rise and fall in the vertical direction to ensure that the stirring blade 654 acts on the full depth of the grease mixture, thereby improving the stirring effect.

[0042] In this embodiment, the outer ring 652 cooperates with the inner cavity of the cylinder 61. When the inner wall of the cylinder 61 needs to be cleaned, the lower cover 63 is first removed, and the control cylinder 651 drives the ring 652 to descend, so that the grease attached to the inner wall of the cylinder 61 can be scraped off, thereby improving the convenience of cleaning the inner wall of the cylinder 61.

[0043] Working principle:

[0044] By setting a reactor 6, a first-stage tube-and-tube condenser 1, a second-stage tube-and-tube condenser 2, and a recovery tank 4 connected by pipelines in sequence, and passing hot water into the jacket 64 of the reactor 6 to heat the grease mixture, the petroleum ether is distilled and separated from the grease, and then condensed and liquefied through the first-stage tube-and-tube condenser 1 and the second-stage tube-and-tube condenser 2, and then flows into the recovery tank 4 for centralized recovery; by setting a stirring assembly 65 in the reactor 6, a lifting ring 652 is set in the stirring assembly 65, and a motor is set at the lower end of the ring 652 to drive the stirring blade 654 to stir the grease mixture, so that the petroleum ether in the grease mixture is heated more evenly, so as to accelerate the distillation and vaporization of the petroleum ether, and improve the adequacy of the distillation and separation of the petroleum ether. By matching the outer diameter of the ring 652 with the inner cavity of the cylinder 61, the lower ring 652 is driven by the cylinder 651 to descend, so that the grease attached to the inner wall of the cylinder 61 can be scraped off, so as to improve the convenience of cleaning the inner wall of the cylinder 61.
