Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of freeze dryers, in particular to a vacuum oil pump with a prolonged service life and an oil-water separation device thereof. Background Art
[0002] Freeze drying is a drying technology that uses the principle of sublimation. It is a process in which the dried material is quickly frozen at low temperature, and then the frozen water molecules are directly sublimated into water vapor and escape under a vacuum environment. The freeze dryer uses this principle. Existing freeze dryers generally use vacuum oil pumps to evacuate the freeze drying chamber. However, water often flows into the vacuum oil pump when it is in use, contaminating the oil in the pump body and reducing the quality of the oil, which will cause greater wear and tear on the parts in the pump, causing damage and reducing the service life. At the same time, the vacuum oil pump also needs to be changed regularly, which adds a lot of costs. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above problems, the first purpose of the utility model is to provide a vacuum oil pump and an oil-water separation device with extended service life, which can effectively separate the water in the oil, extend the service life of the equipment and reduce maintenance costs.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows: an oil-water separation device for a vacuum oil pump with a prolonged service life, comprising a separation tank, the upper part of which is connected to a liquid inlet pipe and an oil return pipe through a tee, the lower part of which is connected to a drain pipe, and the lower part of the separation tank is made of a transparent material.
[0005] In the above technical solution, a control valve is installed on the drain pipe.
[0006] In the above technical solution, the separation tank includes an upper tank body and a lower tank body, and the lower tank body is made of a transparent material.
[0007] In view of the above problems, the second object of the utility model is to provide a vacuum oil pump, comprising a pump body, on which the above-mentioned oil-water separation device is provided, and the separation tank is connected to the oil inlet at the upper part of the pump body and the mixed liquid outlet at the lower part of the pump body through a tee.
[0008] In the above technical solution, an observation window is provided at the lower part of the pump body.
[0009] To sum up, the technical solution of the utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with traditional technical means: the utility model is an oil-water separation device arranged on a vacuum oil pump. When in use, the oil-water mixture at the bottom of the pump body is first discharged into the separation tank. Because oil and water are immiscible and the density of oil is much lower than that of water, they will gradually separate into layers. The oil floats on the upper layer and is gradually squeezed upward and flows back to the oil inlet from the return oil pipe, while the water always remains in the lower part of the separation tank. When the water in the separation tank accumulates to a certain extent, the control valve on the lower drain pipe is opened to discharge the water. This effectively separates the water in the oil. On the one hand, the service life of the vacuum pump is extended, and on the other hand, there is no need to replace all the oil, which greatly saves costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
