[0025] The following further describes in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the drawings.
[0026] Embodiment 1:
[0027] A portable high-pressure hot air blower provided in this embodiment, as Figures 1 - 6 shown, includes a blower 1, an air delivery pipe 2, a cold air heating chamber 3, and a hot air ejection pipe 4.
[0028] One end of the air delivery pipe 2 is connected to the air outlet of the blower 1 and the other end is connected to the air inlet of the cold air heating chamber 3. The air outlet of the cold air heating chamber 3 is connected to the hot air ejection pipe 4. The cold air blown by the blower 1 is heated to high-temperature hot air in the cold air heating chamber 3 and ejected from the hot air ejection pipe 4. The air delivery pipe 2 can be a flexible hose for convenient bending use.
[0029] Preferably, the portable high-pressure hot air blower is also provided with an operation handle (not marked), and the operation handle is connected to the outside of the blower 1 or the outside of the cold air heating chamber 3 for convenient operation during use.
[0030] When the portable high-pressure hot air blower of this embodiment is in use, it can be carried on the back by a single person and is mainly used for clearing relatively solid ice and snow in different scenarios. It is especially convenient for clearing ice and snow in railway turnouts, making the ice and snow clearing work easier and improving the work efficiency of ice and snow clearing. When clearing ice and snow, first use high-temperature hot air to melt the ice and snow that needs to be cleared in the railway turnout area, and the melted ice water is then blown away from the clearing area by the high-pressure and high-speed hot air flow, thus achieving the purpose of clearing ice and snow.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, a flame generator 5 is provided in the cold air heating chamber 3. The flame generator 5 includes a combustion chamber 54, a fuel delivery pipeline 52, and an electric pulse igniter 53. The combustion chamber 54 is connected in the cold air heating chamber 3 through a support connection frame 51.
[0032] One end of the fuel delivery pipeline 52 is connected to the combustion chamber 54 and the other end is connected to a fuel storage tank 55 provided outside the cold air heating chamber 3. The fuel delivery pipeline 52 is used to deliver fuel to the combustion chamber 54, and the fuel can be gas or vaporized liquid fuel. Specifically, a control valve 56 is provided on the fuel delivery pipeline 52 to control the fuel flow rate.
[0033] One end of the electric pulse igniter 53 is connected to the combustion chamber 54 and the other end is connected to a power supply circuit 57. A power supply and a switch are provided on the power supply circuit 57 to control the ignition state of the electric pulse igniter 53.
[0034] The flame generator 5 in this embodiment always heats the cold air blown out by the blower to a predetermined temperature, so that high-temperature hot air is ejected from the nozzle of the hot air ejection pipe 4.
[0035] As Figure 2 shown, the cold air heating chamber 3 has a conical structure with a cylindrical shape in the middle and constricted openings at both ends.
[0036] As a preferred embodiment, the combustion chamber 54 is coaxially arranged with the cold air heating chamber 3, and the outer diameter of the combustion chamber 54 is smaller than the inner diameter of the cold air heating chamber 3. There is a gap between the outer wall of the combustion chamber 54 and the inner wall of the cold air heating chamber 3, so that part of the air flows through this gap and part of the air flows into the combustion chamber 54 to participate in combustion.
[0037] As a preferred embodiment, the air outlet end of the combustion chamber 54 has a constricted conical structure, so that the burning flame accelerates out to heat the outside air.
[0038] The combustion chamber 54 in this embodiment is a cylindrical cavity structure with an opening at the front end (air inlet end) and a conical nozzle at the end. On its side wall, a fuel delivery pipeline 52 and an electric pulse igniter 53 are respectively installed. When the combustion chamber 54 is working, air enters the combustion chamber from the air inlet end, mixes with the fuel transported into the combustion chamber 54 from the fuel input pipeline to form combustible gas, which is ignited by the electric pulse igniter, and the high-temperature flame generated during combustion sprays out from the conical nozzle of the combustion chamber.
[0039] When the portable high-pressure hot air blower in this embodiment is in use, most of the cold air blown out by the blower 1 directly flows through the annular space between the combustion chamber 54 and the cold air heating chamber 3 to the outlet position of the cold air heating chamber 3, as shown by the dotted line in the figure; a small part of the cold air enters the combustion chamber 54 from the air inlet end of the combustion chamber 54, forms a mixed combustible gas with the fuel entering the combustion chamber from the fuel delivery pipeline 52, and enters the combustion state after being ignited by the electric pulse igniter 53. Due to the continuous supply of fuel and air, a stable combustion flame is formed in the combustion chamber 54. After the continuously burning high-temperature flame sprays out from the combustion chamber 54, it mixes with the cold air that directly flows to the outlet of the combustion chamber 54 from the annular space between the combustion chamber 54 and the cold air heating chamber 3 to form high-temperature gas, which is sprayed out through the hot air spray pipe 4.
[0040] The working steps of the portable high-pressure hot air blower in this embodiment are as follows:
[0041] First step: Start the gasoline blower 1 and make it in the idle state;
[0042] Second step: Connect the fuel delivery pipeline 52 to inject fuel into the combustion chamber 54;
[0043] Third step: Use the electric pulse igniter 53 to ignite the mixed gas in the combustion chamber 54;
[0044] Fourth step: Gradually increase the throttle of the gasoline blower to increase the air volume of the blower to the required wind speed and air volume;
[0045] Fifth step: Adjust the fuel supply amount of the fuel delivery pipeline 52 to adjust the heat generated during combustion in the combustion chamber 54;
[0046] Sixth step: Align the high-temperature and high-pressure hot air spray pipe 4 to the part where ice and snow are to be removed, and the removal purpose can be gradually achieved.
[0047] As a preferred embodiment, an air volume distributor 6 is further provided in the cold air heating chamber 3. The air volume distributor 6 is arranged at the front end of the combustion chamber 54, and part of the air volume of the cold air flows to the combustion chamber 54 after passing through the air volume distributor 6.
[0048] The flame generator integrated in the cold air heating chamber 3 is equipped with an automatic air volume distributor, which can ensure that the flame generator burns stably and efficiently when the fan runs from the minimum wind speed to the maximum wind speed.
[0049] It should be noted that the basic condition for continuous and stable combustion in the combustion chamber is that the continuously supplied fuel and air have a specific mixing ratio. If the mixing ratio is too small or too large, a continuous and stable combustion condition in the combustion chamber cannot be guaranteed. Since the combustion chamber is fixedly arranged in the air duct of the gasoline fan, and the ventilation volume generated by the gasoline fan depends on the throttle position. The air volume is small at idle speed and gradually increases when the throttle is increased. The wind speed and air volume fluctuate violently. If no corresponding measures are taken, as the air volume in the air duct increases, the air volume entering the combustion chamber also increases, thus breaking the air-fuel mixing ratio that can produce stable combustion in the combustion chamber, and then resulting in combustion failure. The function of the air volume distributor in this embodiment is that as the air volume in the air duct gradually increases or decreases, it can ensure that the air volume entering the combustion chamber is stable at a specific value, so as to ensure that the air-fuel ratio in the combustion chamber is relatively fixed, and then obtain the stability of combustion.
[0050] As a preferred embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the air volume distributor 6 includes a torsion blade 61, a connecting shaft 62 and a distribution blade 63. The torsion blade 61 is arranged on the side close to the fan 1, the distribution blade 63 is arranged on the side close to the combustion chamber 54, and one end of the connecting shaft 62 is connected to the torsion blade 61 and the other end is connected to the distribution blade 63. When the torsion blade 61 is blown by the airflow of the fan 1, it can drive the distribution blade 63 to rotate to adjust the effective area for ventilation. The connecting shaft 62 is coaxially arranged with the cold air heating chamber 3, and the connecting shaft 62 is rotatably connected to the cold air heating chamber 3 through a fixed bracket 65.
[0051] As a preferred embodiment, as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, the distribution vane 63 includes a fixed vane 632 and a rotating vane 631. The fixed vane 632 is fixedly connected to the ventilation section at the inlet of the combustion chamber 54. Ventilation holes 633 are provided on the fixed vane 632. The rotating vane 631 is concentrically connected to the fixed vane 632 and the rotating vane 631 is connected to the connecting shaft 62. When the rotating vane 631 rotates, it can change the blocking area of the ventilation holes 633, so as to change the effective ventilation area of the ventilation holes 633. Among them, the ventilation holes 633 are fan-shaped, and a plurality of fan-shaped ventilation holes 633 are provided. The plurality of ventilation holes 633 are evenly distributed around the center of the fixed vane 632. The shape of the rotating vane 631 is the same as that of the fixed vane 632. When the ventilation holes 633 on the rotating vane 631 are aligned with the ventilation holes 633 on the fixed vane 632, the effective ventilation area is the largest. When the ventilation holes 633 on the rotating vane 631 are misaligned with the ventilation holes 633 on the fixed vane 632, the effective ventilation area is reduced.
[0052] The distribution vane 63 in this embodiment is composed of two thin metal sheets with the same structural dimensions and symmetric fan-shaped ventilation holes. The two metal sheets are coaxially staggered by an angle and closely overlapped. By changing the relative angle of the two metal sheets, the ventilation area of the ventilation holes can be changed, thereby changing the air volume passing through them. Among them, the fixed vane 632 is fixed at the inlet of the combustion chamber and cannot rotate; the rotating vane 631 can rotate around the axis.
[0053] The torsion vane 61 in this embodiment is installed at the very front end of the entire cold air heating chamber. The cold air blown by the gasoline blower will push the torsion vane to rotate, and the torsion vane will push the rotating vane 631 to rotate by connecting with the rotating vane 631, so as to achieve the effect of changing the effective ventilation area of the air volume distributor to stabilize the air flow entering the combustion chamber.
[0054] As a preferred embodiment, the air volume distributor 6 further includes a torsion return spring 64. The torsion return spring is sleeved on the connecting shaft 62, one end of which is connected to the fixing hole on the fixed bracket 65 and the other end is connected to the torsion vane 61.
[0055] In this embodiment, the working process of the torsion blade is as follows. When the torsion blade is blown by the airflow from the gasoline blower, the torque generated due to the designed angle of the blade will cause the torsion blade to rotate clockwise. When the torque generated by the airflow blowing the torsion blade reaches equilibrium with the reverse torsion of the torsion return spring installed coaxially, the torsion blade will stay at the corresponding angle. The magnitude of the angle by which the torsion blade rotates depends on the wind force of the gasoline blower. When the wind force is large, the angle by which the torsion blade rotates clockwise is large; when the wind force decreases, the torsion blade will rotate counterclockwise under the action of the spring. The clockwise or counterclockwise rotation of the torsion blade will drive the rotating blade 631 of the air volume distributor coaxially connected thereto to change the effective area of the fan-shaped ventilation holes, thereby achieving the purpose of regulating the air flow into the combustion chamber.
[0056] The torsion blade can be two or more pieces. However, in order to reduce the excessive wind resistance generated by the torsion blade, a two-piece structure is adopted in this embodiment.
[0057] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art of this technology can make several deformations and improvements without departing from the creative concept of the present invention, and all should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
