DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0024] The utility model provides a technical solution: Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a mixed contact reaction device for preparing catechol from phenol includes a reactor 1, which is characterized in that: a ventilation component 4 is installed inside the reactor 1, the ventilation component 4 includes an air inlet pipe 401 rotatably connected inside the reactor 1, and one end of the top of the air inlet pipe 401 extends out of the reactor 1, two nozzles 402 are fixedly inserted at the bottom of the circumferential outer wall of the air inlet pipe 401, and multiple nozzles are arranged on the outer walls at both ends of the two nozzles 402, and a one-way valve is arranged inside the multiple nozzles, a gear ring 405 is fixedly sleeved on the top of the circumferential outer wall of the air inlet pipe 401, a support frame 403 is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the reactor 1, a motor 404 is fixedly installed on the top outer wall of the support frame 403, a gear 406 is coaxially fixed to the rotating shaft of the motor 404, and the gear 406 is meshed with the gear ring 405, an electric heating pipe is arranged inside the reactor 1, and the electric heating pipe is electrically connected to an external controller through a wire.

[0025] A pipe opening is arranged on the outer wall of the top of the support frame 403, and the pipe opening is connected to the external oxygen supply device. One end of the top of the air inlet pipe 401 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the circumference of the pipe opening, so as to ensure the normal rotation of the air inlet pipe 401 without affecting the gas flow.

[0026] Oxygen passes through the air inlet pipe 401 and enters the nozzle 402, and finally escapes outward from the nozzle of the nozzle 402. At the same time, the motor 404 on the top of the support frame 403 is started, and the motor 404 drives the gear 406 to rotate. The gear 406 can drive the air inlet pipe 401 to rotate inside the reactor 1 through the gear ring 405 meshing with it, and then the nozzle 402 fixed at the bottom of the air inlet pipe 401 will also be driven to rotate, and the position of the oxygen sprayed therefrom will also continue to change, thereby ensuring that each position of the raw materials inside the reactor 1 can be in contact with oxygen in time.

[0027] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, two dispersion components 5 are installed outside the nozzle 402, and the two dispersion components 5 are respectively located at two ends of the nozzle 402.

[0028] The dispersion component 5 includes two extension covers 504 fixedly connected to the outer walls on both sides of the nozzle 402, and a slot 505 is provided on the outer walls on both sides of the two extension covers 504. A block 503 adapted to the slot 505 is slidably inserted inside the two extension covers 504. The two blocks 503 are fixedly connected to the same external tube 501. The air inlet of the external tube 501 corresponds to the nozzle position of the nozzle 402, and a plurality of air outlet holes 502 distributed at equal distances are provided on the outside of the external tube 501.

[0029] A sealing ring 506 is disposed outside the nozzle of the spray head 402 , and the multiple sealing rings 506 are all made of rubber material, which can further increase the sealing between the spray head 402 and the external tube 501 .

[0030] By installing the dispersion component 5 on the outside of the nozzle 402, the gas sprayed from the nozzle 402 can be converted into a large number of small bubbles, which greatly increases the contact area between the raw material and oxygen, and is beneficial to further increase the reaction efficiency. The external tube 501 is covered on the outside of the nozzle of the nozzle 402, so that the air inlet of the external tube 501 corresponds to the nozzle of the nozzle 402, and then the block 503 is also inserted into the extension cover 504 until the head of the block 503 enters the inside of the card slot 505. The position of the external tube 501 will be firmly restricted, and the gas sprayed from the nozzle 402 will be divided into a large number of small bubbles under the action of multiple air outlets 502 when passing through the external tube 501.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of extension plates 407 distributed at equal distances are provided on the circumferential outer wall of the air inlet pipe 401, so that the air inlet pipe 401 also has the effect of stirring the raw materials.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, a feed pipe 2 and an air outlet pipe 3 are provided on the top outer wall of the reactor 1.

[0033] The utility model provides a mixed contact reaction device for preparing catechol from phenol, and the specific working principle is as follows:

[0034] When the device is working, various raw materials are poured into the reactor 1 from the feed pipe 2, and then the electric heating tube arranged inside the reactor 1 is turned on. When the temperature of the raw materials rises to above 40 degrees, external oxygen is introduced into the air inlet pipe 401, and the oxygen enters the nozzle 402 after passing through the air inlet pipe 401, and finally escapes outward from the nozzle of the nozzle 402. At the same time, the motor 404 on the top of the support frame 403 is started, and the motor 404 drives the gear 406 to rotate. The gear 406 can drive the air inlet pipe 401 to rotate inside the reactor 1 through the gear ring 405 meshing with it, and then the nozzle 402 fixed at the bottom of the air inlet pipe 401 will also be driven to rotate, and the position of the oxygen sprayed therefrom will also change continuously, thereby ensuring that the raw materials inside the reactor 1 are kept in a stable state. Each position of the material can be in contact with oxygen in time. Before that, the dispersion component 5 can also be installed on the outside of the nozzle 402, which can convert the gas ejected from the nozzle 402 into a large number of small bubbles, greatly increasing the contact area between the raw material and oxygen, which is beneficial to further increase the reaction efficiency. The external tube 501 is covered on the outside of the nozzle of the nozzle 402, so that the air inlet of the external tube 501 corresponds to the nozzle of the nozzle 402, and then the block 503 is also inserted into the extension cover 504 until the head of the block 503 enters the inside of the card slot 505, and the position of the external tube 501 is firmly restricted. When the gas ejected from the nozzle 402 passes through the external tube 501, it will be divided into a large number of small bubbles under the action of multiple air outlets 502.

[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
