Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of dust removal, in particular to a round hole fence type gas-liquid mixer for a tunnel foam dust removal system. Background Art

[0002] Dust (mineral dust, rock dust) is fine particles of various rocks and soils generated during production and construction and can be suspended in the air for a long time. The size of dust is called particle size, that is, the average diameter of dust particles, usually expressed in microns (μm). After dust particles larger than 5μm are inhaled into the human respiratory organs, most of them can be discharged from the body; dust smaller than 5μm can reach and settle in the alveoli, and this part of dust is called respirable dust. The length of time dust flies in the air is related to the size, mass and shape of dust particles, as well as the temperature and wind speed of the air. Dust can be generated in each operation process and link in tunnel construction. Drilling, blasting, loading and unloading slag, transportation of thick and thin pipe materials, concrete mixing, shotcrete and other operations in tunnel construction generate a lot of dust, which can cause pneumoconiosis and silicosis, which is harmful to human health; in addition, flammable and explosive dust can also cause explosion accidents. Therefore, dust prevention work must be done well. The number of deaths from this occupational disease is about 2.5 times that of work-related injuries, which is shocking.

[0003] At present, the methods of dust reduction in tunnels are mainly to adopt pressure-in or extraction ventilation methods, and some use dust reduction vehicles to reduce dust. The disadvantage of these methods is that it is difficult to control the flow direction of dust, which is easy to spread in the tunnel, affecting the working environment and seriously affecting the health of workers, making it difficult to achieve the desired effect. Water mist dust removal is also used in tunnels, but it is not suitable to use a large amount of water in tunnels, especially in mudstone formations. Mudstone formations have a high dust content and are easily softened by water, affecting the stability of the tunnel. Therefore, general water mist dust removal equipment is no longer applicable.

[0004] Using micro foam instead of water mist for dust removal can not only avoid the use of a large amount of water in the tunnel, but also enhance the dust removal efficiency. (1) Foam can cover the dust source without gaps, fundamentally preventing the dust from spreading outward; (2) After the liquid forms foam, the total volume and total surface area increase significantly, increasing the probability of collision with dust and increasing the dust reduction efficiency; (3) The foam film contains special additives that can significantly reduce the surface tension of water and rapidly increase the speed at which dust is wetted; (4) Foam has good viscosity, and dust will quickly adhere to the foam after contact with it. (5) The water consumption is small, avoiding the instability of the surrounding rock caused by the large water consumption of water mist dust removal, and improving construction safety. Therefore, using foam dust removal as the main dust removal method for tunnel dust removal will be the future development trend.

[0005] The key technical difficulty of foam dust removal is how to efficiently obtain dispersed micro-foam, because piles of foam cannot be used to suppress airborne dust.

[0006] This device is designed to solve the problem of rapid foaming under this background and lay the foundation for obtaining micro foam. Summary of the invention

[0007] The utility model provides a circular hole fence type gas-liquid mixer for a tunnel foam dust removal system, in which a perforated fence is arranged, and through the effect of small holes, the contact between foam liquid and air is increased to allow the foam liquid to foam. This method not only allows the foam liquid and foam to pass more easily, but also can produce foam with equal bubble size.

[0008] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows: a perforated stainless steel circular fence is set in a hard cylindrical pressure-resistant pipeline made of PVC with a length of 18 cm, an outer diameter of 20 mm and an inner diameter of 16 mm. According to multiple tests, it is most appropriate to set a fence every 1.5 cm. Each fence is 0.3 mm thick and 16 mm in diameter. The diameter of the circular holes on the fence is 1 mm. When the foam liquid passes through the circular holes on the fence, it can be more fully in contact with the air to form bubbles. According to the test, the pipeline setting of 18 cm is the best, and 10 fences are the best. At the same time, high-pressure PU air pipes (withstanding pressure within 1 MPa) are set at both ends as extended connecting pipes, which are used in conjunction with 16 mm straight-through pneumatic PU quick connectors to facilitate installation and disassembly.

[0009] Furthermore, the material used for the fence is not easy to rust. If rust occurs, it should be replaced in time to avoid affecting the foaming.

[0010] Furthermore, the tunnel foam dust removal system used is a pressurized system, and the straight-through pneumatic PU quick connector used meets the pressure requirements of the dust removal system.

[0011] The utility model has the following beneficial effects: the circular hole fence type gas-liquid mixer of the tunnel foam dust removal system of the utility model has large fence gaps and small resistance, which can make the foam liquid pass through the foamer more smoothly. Its uniform gaps can produce foam with equal bubble sizes, and the structure is simple. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
