Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat exchangers, in particular to a tube-bundle evaporator tube removal tool. Background Art

[0002] The tube bundle evaporator is a heat exchanger equipment, which is a large cylindrical heat exchange equipment. There are more than 2,000 circular heating pipes of the same size in the tube bundle evaporator. The heat exchange principle is to pass high-temperature steam into the gaps between these pipes, heat and concentrate the solution flowing down from the inside of the pipes, and condense the high-temperature steam into qualified water for reuse. After the tube bundle evaporator has been running for a certain period of time, the pipes will be worn or corroded, which not only increases energy consumption but also causes water pollution, which has a great impact on production. The heating pipes need to be replaced regularly to ensure the operating efficiency of the tube bundle evaporator.

[0003] During disassembly and assembly, the old pipe fittings need to be completely removed and new pipe fittings need to be installed in the original channels. There are generally two ways to remove old pipes in the prior art. One method is to pull the pipe fittings upward from the bottom, cut them off step by step, and move them outside the evaporator. However, since the lower head area is a narrow and enclosed space, the efficiency is low and there are safety risks when removing the old tube bundle from the lower head. Therefore, the second method of pulling the old pipe fittings upward from the top is adopted. However, due to the serious wear or corrosion of the old pipe fittings, the internal fractures of the pipe fittings often occur when the old pipe fittings are pulled out, and they cannot be completely pulled out, resulting in the inability to replace new pipe fittings. Every time the tube bundle is replaced, the replacement of the pipe fittings is incomplete and the maintenance workload is large. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the technical problems existing in the background technology, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a tube-bundle evaporator tube removal tool, which can pull out the tube from the middle and avoid the situation that the tube is not completely removed.

[0035] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in , 4, 5, 6, 9 and 10, connecting rod Ⅰ5 and support plate Ⅰ3 are rotatably connected, one end of connecting rod Ⅰ5 is provided with through hole Ⅰ51, connecting rod Ⅰ5 is arranged in connecting groove Ⅰ31, connecting rod Ⅰ32 passes through through hole Ⅰ51, connecting rod Ⅱ52 and support plate Ⅱ4 are rotatably connected, one end of connecting rod Ⅱ52 is provided with through hole Ⅱ53, connecting rod Ⅱ52 is arranged in connecting groove Ⅱ41, connecting rod Ⅱ42 passes through through hole Ⅱ53, when the distance between support plate Ⅰ3 and support plate Ⅱ4 becomes smaller, the angle between connecting rod Ⅰ5 and connecting rod Ⅱ52 becomes smaller.

[0036] like Figure 1 , 5As shown in , 7, 8, 9 and 10, a slide groove 35 is arranged above the support tube 34, a nut 7 is rotatably arranged on the support tube 34, a slider 71 is arranged at one end of the nut 7, the slider 71 extends into the slide groove 35, a threaded section 44 is arranged on the support rod 43, the nut 7 and the threaded section 44 are connected by threaded cooperation, when the nut 7 is rotated to move downward on the support rod 43, the nut 7 drives the support tube 34 to move downward synchronously while rotating, and the same is true when moving upward, the support tube 34 and the support rod 43 are connected by the threaded section 44 and the nut 7, which can prevent the support tube 34 and the support rod 43 from shaking relative to each other, ensure the stability of the pipe removal tool 2, and make the pipe removal process more efficient and convenient.

[0037] like Figure 1 , 6 As shown in Figures 9 and 10, a plurality of friction plates 55 are arranged on the rotating shaft 54, and the friction plates 55 are arranged toward the inner wall of the pipe 101. When the angle between the connecting rod Ⅰ5 and the connecting rod Ⅱ52 becomes smaller, the rotating shaft 54 ​​drives the friction plates 55 to gradually approach the inner wall of the pipe 101, and the friction plates 55 abut against the inner wall of the pipe 101 to prevent the rotating shaft 54 ​​from directly contacting the pipe 101 and causing wear to each other. At the same time, the friction plates 55 are in contact with the pipe 101, and the friction force is relatively large, so it is easier to pull up the pipe 101.

[0038] Working principle: Place the pipe removal tool 2 inside the pipe fitting 101, rotate the nut 7 to make it move downward on the support rod 43, and during the movement of the nut 7, the support tube 34 is driven downward, and then the support plate I3 is driven to move toward the direction of the support plate II4. At this time, the distance between the connecting rod I5 and the connecting rod II52 becomes smaller, and the rotating shaft 54 ​​drives the friction plate 55 to extend out of the pipe removal tool 2, and the position of the nut 7 is continuously adjusted to make the friction plate 55 and the inner wall of the pipe fitting 101 close to each other, and the pipe removal tool 2 is pulled out to bring the pipe fitting 101 out, and the nut 7 is rotated again to make it move toward the top of the support rod 43. At this time, the distance between the support plate I3 and the support plate II4 becomes larger, and the angle between the connecting rod I5 and the connecting rod II52 becomes larger, and the rotating shaft 54 ​​drives the friction plate 55 to separate from the inner wall of the pipe fitting 101, so that the pipe removal tool 2 and the pipe fitting 101 are separated, and the removal of the pipe fitting 101 is completed.

[0039] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various changes and modifications. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
