[0020] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] See also Figures 1 - 4, A water-cooled oil-injected screw air compressor with a heat recovery device, at least including a compressor unit 40 and an oil-gas separation tank 20, further including a heat recovery heat exchanger 10. The heat recovery heat exchanger 10 internally integrates a first flow channel and a second flow channel. One delivery pipe 110 is connected to the input end and the output end of the first flow channel. The delivery pipe 110 is successively installed with a first valve 120, a second valve 130, and a third valve 140 from the input end to the output end of the first flow channel;

[0022] The oil output end of the oil-gas separation tank 20 is connected with an output pipe 150, and the output end of the output pipe 150 is communicated with the delivery pipe 110 between the first valve 120 and the second valve 130;

[0023] A delivery mechanism 30 is connected to the delivery pipe 110 between the second valve 130 and the third valve 140. The delivery mechanism 30 is used to connect with the compressor unit 40 for oil supply.

[0024] Based on the above embodiment, during normal use when heat recovery is not required, the first valve and the third valve are closed, and the second valve is opened. The oil output from the output pipe flows directly through the delivery pipe to the delivery mechanism for supply to the compressor unit.

[0025] When heat energy is recovered, the first valve and the third valve are opened, and the second valve is closed. The oil output from the output pipe is input into the first flow channel of the heat recovery heat exchanger through the delivery pipe. During this process, the oil in the first flow channel exchanges heat with the heat exchange substance in the second flow channel to take away the heat in the oil. The oil after heat exchange is transported from the delivery pipe to the delivery mechanism for supply to the compressor unit.

[0026] By self-equipping with a heat recovery heat exchanger, the present utility model can prevent the machine from operating at a temperature lower than normal due to the customer adding a heat recovery heat exchanger by themselves, which affects the service life of the machine. At the same time, the recovery heat exchanger recovers part of the heat energy, which can extend the maintenance period of the oil heat exchanger and reduce the frequency of the oil heat exchanger.

[0027] See Figure 1 , An input pipe 170 is connected to the input end of the second flow channel of the heat recovery heat exchanger 10, and an output pipe 180 is connected to the output end of the second flow channel of the heat recovery heat exchanger 10. A fourth valve 190 is installed on the output pipe 180. The function of the fourth valve 190 is to control the flow rate of the heat exchange substance according to the heat exchange demand, so as to control the flow rate of the heat exchange substance passing through the second flow channel to control the heat exchange efficiency.

[0028] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 , The delivery mechanism 30 includes an oil heat exchanger 310. The oil heat exchanger 310 internally integrates a third flow channel and a fourth flow channel;

[0029] The input end of the third flow channel is connected with a first conduit 320. The first conduit 320 is connected with a delivery pipe 110 between the second valve 130 and the third valve 140. The output end of the third flow channel is connected with a second conduit 330.

[0030] The second conduit 330 is used to connect with the compressor unit 40 to supply oil.

[0031] The oil output through the delivery pipe 110 enters the third flow channel of the oil heat exchanger 310 under the action of the first conduit 320. In this process, the oil in the third flow channel exchanges heat with the cold water in the fourth flow channel to reduce the oil temperature, and then the oil is transported to the compressor unit 40 through the second conduit 330.

[0032] Refer to 2 and Figure 3 , and further includes an air heat exchanger 50. The air heat exchanger 50 internally integrates a fifth flow channel and a sixth flow channel.

[0033] The air output end of the oil-gas separation tank 20 is connected with a third conduit 510. The third conduit 510 is connected with the input end of the fifth flow channel. The output end of the fifth flow channel is used to output gas.

[0034] The input end of the fourth flow channel is connected with a cold water input pipe 340. The output end of the fourth flow channel is connected with a cold water output pipe 350. The cold water output pipe 350 is connected with a three-way valve 540. The second port of the three-way valve 540 is connected with a fourth conduit 520. The fourth conduit 520 is connected with the input end of the sixth flow channel. The output end of the sixth flow channel is connected with a cold water return pipe 550. The cold water input pipe 340 is connected with a bypass pipe 530. The bypass pipe 530 is connected with the third port of the three-way valve 540.

[0035] Based on the above embodiments, by setting the three-way valve 540, when the oil heat exchanger 310 reduces the oil temperature to the normal operating temperature of the machine, control the three-way valve 540 to make the bypass pipe 530 communicate with the fourth conduit 520. At this time, a part of the cold water input from the cold water input pipe 340 will be diverted to the fourth conduit 520 to be directly input into the air heat exchanger 50. Through the switching control of the three-way valve 540, the distribution of cold water can be controlled in real time when the heat recovery heat exchanger 10 recovers heat energy to meet the heat exchange quantity requirement. Avoid all the cold water entering the oil heat exchanger 310 and avoid the oil temperature being too low. It can reduce the heat exchange quantity of the oil heat exchanger 310 and raise the oil temperature of the machine to the normal value.

[0036] Furthermore, the three-way valve 540 adopts an electric proportional regulating valve.
