An upper tank body is arranged at the top of the reboiler tank body, and a lower tank body is arranged at the bottom of the reboiler tank body. Several first heat exchange tubes are arranged on one side inside the reboiler tank body, and several second heat exchange tubes are arranged on the other side inside the reboiler tank body. Several baffle plates are arranged inside the reboiler tank body. A baffle is arranged inside the lower tank body. A liquid inlet chamber is arranged on one side inside the lower tank body, and a liquid outlet chamber is arranged on the other side inside the lower tank body.

[0021] Reboiling shell 1: Partition plates 8 are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of its inner wall. Heat exchange copper tubes 10 evenly distributed are arranged through between the partition plates 8. It also includes a single-chip microcomputer 2 which is located outside the reboiling shell 1. The input end of the single-chip microcomputer 2 is electrically connected to an external power supply. An air outlet pipe 3 penetrates through the top wall of the reboiling shell 1. A heat medium inlet pipe 4 and a cold medium discharge pipe 5 respectively penetrate through the side wall of the reboiling shell 1. A liquid inlet pipe 6 penetrates through the bottom wall of the reboiling shell 1. Electromagnetic valves 7 are connected in series in the middle of the air outlet pipe 3, the heat medium inlet pipe 4, the cold medium discharge pipe 5 and the liquid inlet pipe 6. The input ends of the electromagnetic valves 7 are all electrically connected to the output end of the single-chip microcomputer 2. A temperature sensor 11 is arranged on the side wall of the reboiling shell 1. The temperature sensor 11 is electrically connected to the single-chip microcomputer 2 bidirectionally. When using the low-temperature rectification tower reboiler, the air outlet pipe 3, the heat medium inlet pipe 4, the cold medium discharge pipe 5 and the liquid inlet pipe 6 are respectively connected to the corresponding external pipelines. Subsequently, the liquid enters the bottom of the device through the liquid inlet pipe 6. The heat medium enters between the two partition plates 8 through the heat medium inlet pipe 4. The heat medium heats the liquid in the heat exchange copper tube 10 through heat transfer through the heat exchange copper tube 10. After partial liquid evaporates, it is discharged along the air outlet pipe 3. After the heat of the heat medium is released, it is discharged through the cold medium discharge pipe 5, so as to reboil the liquid in the low-temperature rectification tower. The single-chip microcomputer 2 starts the temperature sensor 11 to detect the temperature of the heat medium in the device, and transmits the detection result to the single-chip microcomputer 2 in the form of an electrical signal, and controls the electromagnetic valve 7 through the single-chip microcomputer 2 to realize the opening and closing control of the internal pipeline of the device;
[0022] Cleaning mechanism 9: It includes a circular vertical moving seat 91 and a rotating scraping seat 92. The circular vertical moving seat 91 is slidably connected to the inside of the reboiler shell 1. Inside the circular vertical moving seat 91, evenly distributed rotating scraping seats 92 are rotatably connected through bearings. The rotating scraping seats 92 are all installed in cooperation with the adjacent heat exchange copper tubes 10. The cleaning mechanism 9 further includes spiral guide strips 93. The spiral guide strips 93 are all arranged on the outer sides of the heat exchange copper tubes 10. The spiral guide strips 93 are all slidably connected to the adjacent rotating scraping seats 92. The cleaning mechanism 9 further includes a reciprocating lead screw 94, a driving shaft 95, and a motor 96. The reciprocating lead screw 94 is rotatably connected between the partition plates 8 through a sealed bearing. The circular vertical moving seat 91 is threadedly connected to the reciprocating lead screw 94. The upper end of the reciprocating lead screw 94 is provided with a driving shaft 95.

The driving shaft 95 drives the reciprocating lead screw 94 to rotate. The reciprocating lead screw 94 makes the circular vertical moving seat 91 move vertically up and down along the heat exchange copper tube 10 through threaded connection. During this process, the rotating scraping seat 92 is guided by the spiral guide strip 93, so as to rotate while moving vertically up and down along the outer side surface of the heat exchange copper tube 10, thereby rotating and scraping the impurities adhered to the surface of the heat exchange copper tube 10, avoiding the influence of impurities on the heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchange copper tube 10.

Subsequently, the liquid enters the bottom of the device through the liquid inlet pipe 6, and the hot medium enters between the two partition plates 8 through the hot medium inlet pipe 4. The hot medium heats the liquid in the heat exchange copper pipe 10 through heat transfer via the heat exchange copper pipe 10. After partial liquid evaporates, it is discharged along the gas outlet pipe 3, and after the heat of the hot medium is released, it is discharged through the cold medium discharge pipe 5, thereby realizing the reboiling treatment of the liquid in the low-temperature rectification column. The single-chip microcomputer 2 starts the temperature sensor 11 to detect the temperature of the hot medium in the device, and transmits the detection result to the single-chip microcomputer 2 in the form of an electrical signal. The solenoid valve 7 is controlled by the single-chip microcomputer 2 to realize the opening and closing control of the internal pipeline of the device. When the reboiler of the low-temperature rectification column has been used for a certain period of time, the single-chip microcomputer 2 starts the motor 96, and its output shaft drives the drive shaft 95 to rotate. The drive shaft 95 drives the reciprocating lead screw 94 to rotate. The reciprocating lead screw 94 makes the circular vertical moving seat 91 move vertically up and down along the heat exchange copper pipe 10 through threaded connection. During this process, the rotating scraping seat 92 moves vertically up and down along the outer side of the heat exchange copper pipe 10 while rotating under the guidance of the spiral guiding strip 93, so as to perform a rotating scraping treatment on the impurities adhering to the surface of the heat exchange copper pipe 10, avoiding the influence of impurities on the heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchange copper pipe 10.
