Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an improved invention of an intake buffer, in particular to an improved invention of an intake buffer with a liquid collection tank. Background Art

[0002] The intake buffer is connected between a compressor and a cylinder and is used for buffering gas. The traditional intake buffer only has a liquid discharge port and no liquid collection tank. When the liquid content in the medium at the compressor inlet is relatively high, the liquid will slowly accumulate. When the liquid level reaches a certain height, it will directly enter the cylinder, resulting in liquid hammer. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an intake buffer with a liquid collection tank.

[0004] To solve the above technical problem, the utility model is implemented by adopting the following technical scheme: The intake buffer with a liquid collection tank includes a buffer tank, and is characterized in that: the buffer tank is arranged horizontally, an air inlet and an air inlet joint are arranged at the left end of the buffer tank, an air outlet and an air outlet joint are arranged at the right bottom of the buffer tank, the outer end of the air outlet joint is connected to a cylinder, the inner end of the air outlet joint is slightly higher than the bottom of the buffer tank, a liquid collection tank is also connected to the middle bottom of the buffer tank, a liquid discharge port is arranged at the lower end of the liquid collection tank, a liquid level switch is provided for the liquid discharge port, and the upper end of the liquid collection tank is flush with the bottom of the buffer tank.

[0005] A liquid level sensor is arranged in the liquid collection tank, the liquid level sensor is signal-connected to a central control system, and the central control system is also connected to an alarm.

[0006] The liquid collection tank is cylindrical, the bottom is spherical, and the axis of the liquid collection tank is perpendicular to the axis of the buffer tank.

[0007] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that for the improved intake buffer with a liquid collection tank, by arranging the liquid collection tank, the liquid in the buffer tank will first accumulate in the liquid collection tank, effectively avoiding the liquid from entering the cylinder. At the same time, when the liquid in the liquid collection tank accumulates to a certain extent, it will be automatically discharged, and the liquid level information can be fed back to the central control system to give an alarm to remind the operator that the liquid accumulation at the inlet is too much and the machine needs to be shut down for maintenance. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0008] The following further details the specific implementation manners of the utility model in conjunction with the drawings.

[0009] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of the utility model. Detailed Description of the Invention

[0010] The drawings show the structure of the utility model, and the following further explains its related details in conjunction with the drawings. In this embodiment, refer to the attached Figure 1, The intake air buffer with a liquid collecting bag includes a buffer tank 1. The buffer tank 1 is horizontally arranged. An air inlet and its air inlet connector 2 are provided at the left end of the buffer tank 1. An air outlet and its air outlet connector 3 are provided at the right bottom of the buffer tank 1. The outer end of the air outlet connector 3 is connected to a cylinder 4. The inner end of the air outlet connector 3 is slightly higher than the bottom of the buffer tank 1 to prevent the liquid at the bottom of the buffer tank 1 from directly flowing into the cylinder 4. A liquid collecting bag 5 is also connected to the middle bottom of the buffer tank 1. A liquid discharge port 6 is provided at the lower end of the liquid collecting bag 5. A liquid level switch 7 is provided for the liquid discharge port 6. The upper end of the liquid collecting bag 5 is flush with the bottom of the buffer tank 1.

[0011] The working principle of the present utility model is that the compressor compresses the medium and enters the buffer tank 1 through the air inlet. Since the medium contains a certain amount of liquid, and when the liquid content is relatively high, the liquid will first gather at the bottom of the buffer tank 1 and accumulate in the liquid collecting bag 5, effectively preventing the liquid from entering the cylinder 4. And when the liquid level in the liquid collecting bag 5 rises, under the action of the liquid level switch 7, it will be automatically discharged through the liquid discharge port 6.

[0012] As a further improved specific implementation manner, a liquid level sensor is provided inside the liquid collecting bag 5. The liquid level sensor is signal-connected to the central control system. The central control system is also connected to an alarm. When the liquid reaches a certain amount, the liquid level sensor transmits the liquid level signal to the central control system, and the central control system controls the alarm to alarm and remind the operator that the liquid accumulation at the inlet is too much and the machine needs to be shut down for maintenance.

[0013] As a further improved specific implementation manner, the liquid collecting bag 5 is cylindrical with a spherical bottom. The axis of the liquid collecting bag 5 is perpendicular to the axis of the buffer tank 1, with a compact structure and reasonable layout.

[0014] In summary, the above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not used to limit the protection scope of the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
