[0021] The utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Example

[0023] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a self-cleaning waste heat recovery device includes a shell 1 and a filter assembly 2 arranged in the shell 1.

[0024] The shell 1 is provided with a steam inlet 3 and a steam outlet 4. The steam inlet 3 is used to introduce vaporized continuous water, the steam outlet 4 is used to guide out clean steam, and the filter assembly 2 is used to filter the steam.

[0025] The housing 1 includes a steam inlet chamber 5 and a filter chamber 6. The housing 1 is also provided with a cleaning component 1 7 and a cleaning component 2 8. The cleaning component 1 7 is arranged in the steam inlet chamber 5 for automatically cleaning the steam inlet chamber 5; the cleaning component 2 8 is arranged in the filter chamber 6 for automatically cleaning the filter chamber 6.

[0026] The cleaning assembly 7 includes a moving unit 9 and a cleaning unit 10. The moving unit 9 is used to drive the cleaning unit 10 to move, and the cleaning unit 10 is used to clean the inner wall of the steam inlet chamber 5.

[0027] When cleaning is required, the moving unit 9 in the cleaning component 1 7 drives the cleaning unit 10 to move in the steam inlet chamber 5, the cleaning unit 10 cleans the inner wall of the steam inlet chamber 5, and the cleaning component 2 8 cleans the filter chamber 6, so that all the spaces inside the shell 1 can be cleaned to avoid the phenomenon of salt or impurities scaling inside and affecting the operation of the device.

[0028] The moving unit 9 includes a fixing plate 11 , a motor 12 , a lead screw 13 and a sliding block 14 .

[0029] The fixing plate 11 is fixed to the end of the steam inlet chamber 5, and the motor 12 is fixed to the side of the fixing plate 11 away from the steam inlet port 3. A through hole 23 is provided on the fixing plate 11, one end of the screw rod 13 passes through the through hole 23 and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the motor 12, and the other end is arranged in the steam inlet chamber 5 along the length direction of the housing 1. The slider 14 is rotatably connected to the screw rod 13, and the cleaning unit 10 is arranged on the slider 14.

[0030] The cleaning unit 10 includes a cleaning disc 15 and a cleaning brush 16. The cleaning disc 15 is fixed on the slider 14, and the cleaning brush 16 is arranged along the outer circumference of the cleaning disc 15 and fits against the inner wall of the housing 1.

[0031] When the device needs to be cleaned, the motor 12 works, the rotating shaft of the motor 12 drives the screw rod 13 to rotate, and the slider 14 moves back and forth along the length direction of the screw rod 13. At the same time, the cleaning disc 15 is fixed on the slider 14, so that the cleaning disc 15 also moves back and forth along the direction of the screw rod 13. The cleaning brush 16 on the outer circumference of the cleaning disc 15 cleans the inner wall of the shell 1 back and forth, so that the salt and impurities attached to the inner wall of the shell 1 are cleaned off.

[0032] The cleaning plate 15 is also provided with an ultrasonic vibrator 17 . When the ultrasonic vibrator 17 is turned on during cleaning, it can accelerate the salt and impurities to fall off the inner wall of the housing 1 .
