Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steel pipe processing, in particular to a device for removing water vapor from the inner wall of a steel pipe. Background Art
[0002] At present, in many industries, pipes made of stainless steel or alloy materials are widely used to transport various fluid media such as water, natural gas, and oil. In view of the characteristics of various transportation environments, it has become an important engineering measure to carry out specific coating treatment on the inner and outer walls of pipes. For example, pipelines responsible for conveying corrosive materials such as chemical raw materials, oil, and natural gas must be coated with anti-corrosion coatings to extend their operating life due to their long-term exposure to corrosive gas or liquid environments. Similarly, pipelines used to transport high-temperature media such as hot water or steam must also be coated with high-temperature resistant coatings on their surfaces to avoid oxidation and erosion caused by high temperatures. For those pipeline systems buried underground, such as municipal water supply and drainage pipes and natural gas pipelines, surface anti-corrosion treatment is also a key step to ensure their long-term and stable service, given that they are easily affected by groundwater, soil, and various chemicals. In addition, in the coating process of pipe fittings, when using materials such as epoxy coatings and polyurethane coatings, it is often necessary to heat the pipe fittings in advance to enhance the adhesion of the coating and improve its ability to resist corrosion. This heating process can ensure that the coating forms a more solid covering layer on the surface of the pipe fittings, thereby enhancing the overall performance of the coating.
[0003] During the cooling stage of pipe fittings after heating and spraying, there is a challenge involving technical considerations. Specifically, the condensation of water vapor from the air on the inner wall of the pipe may cause uneven cooling. This uneven cooling effect may lead to structural instability of the coating, manifested as deformation, cracking and reduced adhesion. These problems may eventually cause even more serious effects - complete loss of coating function or damage to the inside of the pipe due to uneven stress distribution.
[0004] Therefore, a steel pipe inner wall desiccant device is proposed to solve or alleviate the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The utility model aims to solve the shortcomings in the prior art and provides a device for removing water vapor from the inner wall of a steel pipe.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] The device for removing moisture from the inner wall of a steel pipe comprises a hot air return flow path, wherein a notch is provided on the loop of the hot air return flow path, wherein the notch is used for a detachable steel pipe, and the spacing of the notch is adjustable.
[0008] Preferably, the hot air return flow path includes a heating module, an air guide module connected thereto, an air outlet manifold connected to the air guide module, and an air intake manifold connected to the heating module, the air intake manifold and the air outlet manifold are respectively connected to an air intake portion and an air outlet portion, and the gap is formed between the air intake portion and the air outlet portion.
[0009] Preferably, the number of the air inlet parts and the air outlet parts is the same and both are plural.
[0010] Preferably, the heating module is an air heater.
[0011] Preferably, the air guiding module is an air extraction pump, and the air extraction pump is connected to the heating module through a connecting pipe.
[0012] Preferably, the air intake portion includes an intake branch pipe connected to the intake main pipe, a solenoid valve connected to the intake branch pipe, and a shrinking soft rubber head fixedly connected to one end of the intake branch pipe away from the intake main pipe.
[0013] Preferably, the air outlet portion includes a bellows connected to the main air outlet pipe, an air outlet branch pipe connected to the bellows, and a shrinking soft rubber head fixedly connected to one end of the air outlet branch pipe away from the bellows.
[0014] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] The utility model can efficiently remove a large amount of water vapor from the inner wall of the steel pipe. When in use, an air inlet branch pipe equipped with a shrinking soft rubber head is put on one end of the steel pipe to seal the pipe end. Then, the same shrinking soft rubber head on the air outlet branch pipe at the other end is adjusted to be inserted into the other end. The adjustable bellows is adapted to steel pipes of different lengths to achieve double-end closure. The air heating component is started to heat the incoming air, and the hot air is circulated through the vacuum pump to form a closed-loop hot air circuit. If the air inlet and outlet parts exceed the number of steel pipes, the solenoid valve is used to close the excess branch pipes to ensure that the hot air does not leak and is used efficiently. At the same time, the air outlet part can let air in from the outside to ensure that the air humidity in the circuit does not rise. In this way, the heated air enters the steel pipe through the main pipe and the branch pipes, takes away the water vapor, and then circulates back to the heater through the air outlet branch pipe, the bellows, the vacuum pump and the connecting pipe to continuously complete the dehumidification operation in the steel pipe.
