Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of oxygen production equipment and relates to an oxygen enricher. Background Art

[0002] An oxygen enricher is a type of machine that produces high-oxygen air. Ordinary air is mainly composed of 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen, while high-oxygen air is a nitrogen-oxygen mixed gas with an oxygen content of more than 21%. It is usually used in oxygen therapy, high-altitude operations, diving and other fields. It can increase the oxygen content in human blood and is beneficial to the health of the body.

[0003] The existing oxygen enricher includes a frame, an air compressor, a molecular sieve connected to the air compressor, and a master control system. The air compressor and the molecular sieve are respectively installed on the frame by bolts. When in use, the master control system controls the air compressor to extract and compress the air, and then transports the compressed air to the molecular sieve for filtering and separating oxygen to finally obtain oxygen. However, the layout of the various components inside the existing oxygen enricher is random, and the various components need to be connected by pipelines, so that the oxygen enricher occupies a large space as a whole, and is also inconvenient to use and maintain. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the above problems in the existing technology and to provide an oxygen enricher. The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an oxygen enricher with a more reasonable overall structure distribution, a more compact structure and a more miniaturized overall structure.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] An oxygen enricher comprises a casing, characterized in that an installation bin and a partition are arranged at intervals in the front and rear of the casing, a cold dryer is arranged in the installation bin, an oil-water separator for oil and gas separation and a precision filter for gas-liquid separation are arranged on the side of the partition away from the installation bin, a screw compressor and a nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane for separating nitrogen and oxygen are arranged on the other side of the partition, the precision filter and the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane are both connected to the partition along the height direction of the casing, the screw compressor and the oil-water separator are connected to the inner bottom wall of the casing, and the screw compressor, the oil-water separator, the cold dryer, the precision filter and the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane are connected in sequence.

[0007] The oxygen enricher adopts a modular design. The cold dryer is independent by setting up an installation bin, and the screw compressor of the intake module, the oil-water separator and precision filter of the purification module, the nitrogen and oxygen separation membrane of the separation module, and the temperature control module cold dryer are arranged in different areas in the casing by setting partitions. At the same time, the partition can also be used as a mounting plate, that is, the precision filter and the nitrogen and oxygen separation membrane are hung on the partition, so that the overall structural distribution of the oxygen enricher is more reasonable and the structure is more compact. After the partition and module layout, the pipeline connection path is shorter and more regular, the overall design is more miniaturized, and it is more convenient to use and maintain.

[0008] In the above-mentioned oxygen enricher, the gas outlet of the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane is connected to an oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube, which is connected to the inner wall of the casing along the height direction of the casing, and an oxygen concentration neutralization filter element is arranged between the oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube and the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane. The oxygen-rich gas separated by the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane is filtered by the oxygen concentration neutralization filter element and then enters the oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube to wait for the oxygen concentration detection, so as to obtain oxygen-rich gas with accurate oxygen concentration.

[0009] In the above oxygen enricher, a heating rod is also provided on the partition plate on the same side as the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane, and the two ends of the heating rod are respectively connected to the precision filter and the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane. The heating rod can heat the gas entering the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane, increase the diffusion rate of the gas, thereby improving the separation effect of the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane, and further ensuring the reliability of the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane.

[0010] In the above-mentioned oxygen enricher, a temperature detector is provided on the heating rod, an oxygen content sensor and an exhaust valve are provided at the outlet of the oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube in sequence, and a controller electrically connected to the temperature detector, the oxygen content sensor and the exhaust valve is provided on the casing, and the controller is used to control the start and stop of the heating rod according to the transmission signal of the temperature detector and to control the switch of the exhaust valve according to the transmission signal of the oxygen content sensor. The temperature detector can monitor the heating temperature of the heating rod so that the heating temperature of the heating rod is controlled within a preset optimal range. The oxygen content sensor can detect the oxygen concentration in the oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube in real time. Through the cooperation of the controller and the exhaust valve, only when the oxygen concentration in the oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube reaches the set threshold can it be exhausted into the gas storage barrel, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the oxygen concentration of the obtained oxygen-enriched gas, and at the same time, it is also convenient to obtain oxygen-enriched gas with different oxygen concentrations.

[0011] In the above oxygen enricher, an air cooler is provided on the inner top wall of the housing, and a plurality of heat dissipation holes are provided on the top and side of the housing. The air cooler can reduce the temperature of the oil-water separator, precision filter and oil cooling filter in the housing and the purification module to prevent the oil-water separator, precision filter and oil cooling filter from being damaged by excessive temperature.

[0012] In the above oxygen enricher, an oil cooling filter is also provided on the inner top wall of the casing, which is opposite to the oil-water separator, and the two ends of the oil cooling filter are respectively connected to the screw compressor and the oil-water separator. The oil cooling filter can filter and purify the gaseous oil separated by the oil-water separator and then transport it to the oil injection port of the screw compressor for the next recycling.

[0013] In the above-mentioned oxygen enricher, a drain bucket is provided outside the casing, and a nitrogen discharge device for liquefying nitrogen is provided inside the casing. The nitrogen discharge device is arranged adjacent to the drain bucket, and the nitrogen discharge device is connected to the nitrogen discharge port of the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane and the drain bucket, respectively. The nitrogen separated by the nitrogen-oxygen separation membrane can be processed by the nitrogen discharge device in time, and discharged into the drain bucket after processing, so as to avoid the separated nitrogen being discharged outside the casing and then being re-absorbed into the screw compressor, thereby increasing the workload of the oxygen enricher.

[0014] In the above oxygen enricher, the four corners of the bottom of the housing are provided with spacers. The spacers raise the components in the housing as a whole, so that the height of the nitrogen exhaust device and the sewage tank are roughly the same, so that the housing does not need to have a avoidance hole, which is conducive to the nitrogen exhaust device to discharge the liquefied nitrogen into the sewage tank.

[0015] In the above oxygen enricher, the air inlet of the screw compressor is provided with an air inlet filter, which can perform a rough filtration (i.e. dust removal filtration) on the standard atmosphere before it enters the screw compressor for compression, which is beneficial to the next operation.

[0016] In the above-mentioned oxygen enricher, both sides of the housing are open and detachably provided with covers, and sound insulation cotton is provided on the inner side wall of the cover. The detachable cover cooperates with the air intake module, purification module, temperature control module and separation module arranged in different areas to protect each module in the housing, and quickly troubleshoots the fault when the oxygen enricher fails, thereby reducing the troubleshooting time; the sound insulation cotton can reduce the noise generated when the oxygen enricher is running.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the oxygen enricher are: the oxygen enricher adopts a modular design, and the cold dryer is independent by setting an installation bin, and the screw compressor of the intake module, the oil-water separator and precision filter of the purification module, the nitrogen and oxygen separation membrane of the separation module, and the air cooler, cold dryer and heating rod of the temperature control module are arranged in the casing in different areas by setting partitions. At the same time, the air cooler is arranged on the inner top wall of the casing to make full use of the space in the casing. On the first hand, the overall structural distribution of the oxygen enricher is more reasonable, the structure is more compact, and the overall size is more miniaturized. On the second hand, covers are detachably provided on both sides of the casing to protect the modules in the casing, quickly troubleshoot, and make the maintenance of each module more convenient. On the third hand, integrated detection and monitoring are carried out by setting a controller and a monitoring module including a temperature detector and an oxygen content sensor.

[0029] The following describes the working principle of this oxygen enricher:

[0030] When in use, the oxygen enricher continuously inhales standard atmosphere (ambient air), which is first roughly filtered (i.e., dust removal filtration) by the air intake filter 19 and then enters the screw compressor 7 for compression.

The oxygen-rich gas is further filtered and purified by the oxygen concentration neutralization filter element 10 before entering the oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube 9. When the oxygen concentration in the oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube 9 reaches the set threshold value detected by the oxygen content sensor 13 thereon, the controller 14 controls the exhaust valve at the outlet of the oxygen concentration dilution transparent tube 9 to open, so that the oxygen-rich gas is transported to the gas storage barrel through the connecting pipe, and finally compressed by the booster compressor and filled into the required equipment from the canning valve (the gas storage barrel, the booster compressor, the canning valve and the required equipment are not shown in the figure).
