Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of confined space operation equipment, and is applied to in-ground sewage treatment operations. Specifically, it relates to a confined space ventilation fan device. Background Art

[0002] In industrial and trading enterprises, especially during the operation and maintenance of in-ground sewage treatment plants, confined space operations are an inevitable part. These spaces usually have the following characteristics: structurally enclosed or semi-enclosed, with limited air circulation, poor natural ventilation, and due to chemical reactions during sewage and sludge treatment, toxic and harmful gases such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon monoxide (CO) are likely to accumulate, posing a significant safety threat to operating personnel.

[0003] Currently, the commonly used ventilation equipment in confined space operations is a common axial flow fan, whose main function is limited to providing forced air flow to displace the air in the space. However, this traditional fan has the following limitations:

[0004] 1. Direct pollutant discharge: The fan only discharges the air inside the confined space without any filtration treatment, resulting in the direct discharge of toxic and harmful gases to the external working area, causing secondary pollution and affecting the health of relevant staff and the surrounding environment.

[0005] 2. Lack of monitoring ability: Traditional ventilation fans do not have the function of real-time monitoring of the concentration of toxic and harmful gases in the confined space, and cannot accurately evaluate the ventilation effect and operation safety, increasing the operation risk.

[0006] 3. Poor flexibility: Traditional fans are designed clumsily and are inconvenient to install and arrange, especially in narrow or structurally complex confined spaces, which limits their applicability and efficiency.

[0007] 4. Non-adjustable air volume: The air volume of most traditional fans is fixed and cannot be dynamically adjusted according to the actual gas concentration in the confined space, resulting in low ventilation efficiency or energy waste. At the same time, it is also difficult to implement an intelligent control strategy.

[0008] In view of the above problems, the existing ventilation fans are unable to cope with complex confined space operations such as in-ground sewage treatment plants, and there is an urgent need for a new type of ventilation equipment that can overcome the above defects to improve operation safety and efficiency, and at the same time meet the requirements of environmental protection.

The air inlet and the air outlet are connected through a pipeline arranged inside the box body; both the filtering component and the fan are installed inside the box body, and the filtering component and the fan are connected in series on the pipeline inside the box body along the length direction of the box body. The filtering component is installed near the air inlet side, and the fan is installed near the air outlet side; the fan is used to provide the power for gas flow, so that the gas enters from the air inlet, moves along the pipeline, and passes through the filtering component and the fan in sequence and then is discharged from the air outlet.

[0012] Preferably, a plurality of walking wheels are provided at the bottom of the box body.

[0013] Further, an integrated industrial control screen is installed on the side wall of the box body where the air inlet or the air outlet is not provided, and a first gas concentration sensor is installed on the pipeline between the air inlet and the filtering component; the integrated industrial control screen is configured with a controller, and the controller is connected to the first gas concentration sensor.
