Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipe pile maintenance, in particular to a pipe pile maintenance autoclave vacuum pumping system. Background Art

[0002] The current high-strength concrete pipe pile production and maintenance process generally adopts a double steam process, that is, normal pressure maintenance and high pressure maintenance. The steam consumption of high pressure maintenance is the biggest factor affecting the cost. In the face of the current national environmental protection requirements, low-carbon and green production has received more and more attention in pipe pile companies, and it is also a key process for pipe pile production companies to focus on reducing costs.

[0003] Under current process conditions, pipe pile manufacturers change the door opening mode of the autoclave from a single door at one end to a double door at both ends, that is, one end exits the autoclave and the other end enters the autoclave, and speeds up the entry speed to reduce the heat exchange loss between the cold air outside the autoclave and the saturated steam inside the autoclave, but this still consumes a lot of saturated steam. We propose a new curing process that can reduce the amount of cold air in the autoclave, thereby reducing the loss of saturated steam, and increase the utilization rate of steam backflow between autoclaves, thereby reducing the loss of saturated steam, comprehensively reducing the production cost of the pipe pile curing process, making it more low-carbon and environmentally friendly, and improving the competitiveness of the product.

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present application provides a vacuum pumping system for a pipe pile curing autoclave that can reduce the loss of saturated steam during autoclave curing. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in 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.

[0017] See also Figure 1 A vacuum pumping system for a pile maintenance autoclave comprises an autoclave 1, wherein an exhaust pipe 11, a residual steam pipe 12 and a reverse steam pipe 13 are connected in parallel at the left end of the autoclave 1, and a steam inlet 14 is provided at the top thereof. A vacuum pump 2 is provided on the left side of the autoclave 1, and an air inlet end of the vacuum pump 2 is connected to the exhaust pipe 11. A vacuum gauge 23, a check valve 24 and an air inlet valve 25 are sequentially provided on the pipeline between the vacuum pump 2 and the exhaust pipe 11. A bypass pipe 21 is connected on the pipeline between the vacuum pump 2 and the vacuum gauge 23, and a safety net 22 is provided on the free end of the bypass pipe 21.

[0018] In this embodiment, when the vacuum pump 2 fails, the steam that has been cured is discharged through the exhaust pipe 11, and the remaining steam is discharged through the remaining steam pipe 12. The steam can also be output to other autoclaves 1 that need to be cured through the steam return pipe 13.

[0019] In this embodiment, the exhaust end of the vacuum pump 2 is connected to the upper end of the water tank 3, and the middle part of the outer side of the water tank 3 is connected with a water adding pipe 6 and an overflow pipe 7. When the water temperature in the water tank 3 is too high to cool the vacuum pump 2, cold water needs to be added to the water tank 3 through the water adding pipe 6, and the excess water is discharged through the overflow pipe 7. A fan 5 is provided on the top of the water tank 3. After the vacuum pump 2 evacuates the high-temperature gas in the autoclave 1 into the water tank, the gas is discharged through the fan 5. A perforated mesh 4 is provided at the upper end of the water tank 3, and the water vapor in the drawn gas is precipitated into the bottom of the water tank 3 after heat exchange through the 6 layers of perforated mesh 4. An air inlet 31 is provided on the water tank 3 to facilitate heat exchange with the fan 5. The lower end of the water tank 3 supplies water to the vacuum pump 2 through a water supply pipe 9, and a drain pipe 10 is connected to the water supply pipe 9 to facilitate drainage.

[0020] When in use, the pipe piles to be high-pressure cured are grouped into the autoclave 1 as required, the safety valve of the autoclave door is locked, and then the vacuum pump 2 is started to allow the vacuum pump 2 to extract the low-temperature gas in the autoclave 1 relative to the high-temperature steam to form a sub-vacuum state in the autoclave. The vacuum pump works for 10 to 60 minutes, and the vacuum degree is preferably -0.08 to -0.02Mpa. Then the air inlet valve 25 is closed, and saturated high-temperature steam enters the autoclave 1 through the steam inlet 14, so that the temperature in the autoclave 1 is increased to perform temperature and pressure curing on the pipe piles. The temperature and pressure increase time is 1.0 to 2.0 hours, the constant temperature and pressure time is 4.0 to 6.0 hours, and the pressure relief time is 1.5 to 3.0 hours.

[0021] When the vacuum pump 2 is working, the water tank 3 supplies water to the vacuum pump 2 through the water supply pipe 9. The gas in the autoclave 1 extracted by the vacuum pump 2 is discharged after being processed by the water tank 3, and the generated sewage is discharged through the sewage pipe 8 at the bottom of the water tank 3.

[0022] In this embodiment, when the vacuum pump 2 is turned on, the air inlet valve 25 is closed first, and the gas pumped by the vacuum pump 2 is supplied through the bypass pipe 21. The safety net 22 can prevent impurities from entering. After the vacuum pump 2 is stably vacuumed, the air inlet valve 25 is opened, the bypass pipe 21 is closed, and the vacuum pump 1 is started to be vacuumed. This method can effectively prevent the pipeline from being damaged due to unstable vacuum in the initial stage.

[0023] In this embodiment, the vacuum pump 2 can be used by connecting multiple autoclaves 1 in series one by one, or multiple vacuum pumps 2 can be used together to act on one autoclave 1 or multiple autoclaves 1.

[0024] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
