Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of evaporation, and particularly relates to a clogging prevention device and an evaporation system. Background Art
[0002] When designing and calculating an evaporation system, the heat transfer area is usually calculated based on physical properties and heat balance. That is to say, the design of the evaporation system is based on the stability of physical properties to achieve the final dynamic balance. When problems such as coking of materials and clogging of heat exchange pipes occur, it will cause the heat transfer coefficient or heat transfer area to deviate seriously from the design value, and the operating point to deviate from the design point, ultimately resulting in the collapse of the evaporation system.
[0003] According to past experience, the system needs to be shut down for cleaning within no more than 2 days of operation. The frequent start and stop of the evaporation system will cause a large amount of energy waste and seriously affect the production progress, which is unacceptable in normal production. The occurrence of coking or clogging during the operation of the evaporation system is one of the important factors affecting the start and stop of the evaporation system. The existing solutions generally try to select a more adaptable evaporation system during the design and selection stage. However, for some materials (such as sewage), due to the uncertainty of the composition, such problems are likely to occur and the results are difficult to predict. Or use an already built system, but due to the large transformation cost, the enterprise will fall into an operating dilemma where it is neither good to abandon nor easy to rectify. Therefore, it is urgent to solve the problem of material clogging in the evaporation system. Summary of the Utility Model

In order to enable any person skilled in the art to implement and use the present invention, the following description is given. In the following description, details are set forth for the purpose of explanation. It should be understood that those of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that the present invention can be implemented without the use of these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and processes are not described in detail to avoid unnecessary details from obscuring the description of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is consistent with the broadest scope that conforms to the principles and features disclosed in the present application.
[0040] Embodiment 1
[0041] Due to the causes of coking and blockage, on the one hand, it is related to the properties of substances, and on the other hand, it is related to the material flow rate. The decrease in the flow rate will cause the blockage or coking to become more serious. Therefore, this embodiment provides an anti-blocking device that can be applied to an evaporation system. Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , which specifically includes a power member 1 and a cutting member 2 provided on the power member 1 for crushing materials; wherein, the cutting member 2 includes a straight portion 21 and a bent portion 22 connected to one side of the straight portion 21. The other side of the straight portion 21 is fixedly connected to the power member 1. The bending direction of the bent portion 22 is the same as the rotation direction of the power member 1. The cutting edge 23 on the straight portion 21 is a double-sided edge and the cutting direction is the same as the bending direction of the bent portion 22.
[0042] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 3 - 5, the power component 1 is used to provide power to the cutting component 2 to make it rotate to cut materials. There is no cutting edge 23 on the bending part 22, so it does not have the function of cutting materials. However, in combination with its design direction, it can guide the materials to the cutting edge 23 for cutting; the straight part 21 is a sheet-like structure, and the angle α between the cutting edge 23 and the cutting surface 3 is greater than 90°. The depth h of the cutting edge 23 accounts for more than half of the thickness of the straight part 21 to improve the cutting efficiency.
[0043] In the specific implementation process, several cutting components 2 are provided, and every two are set as a group, so that several groups of the cutting components 2 are arranged at intervals on the power component 1; among them, the two cutting components 2 in a group are arranged in the opposite direction. That is, two straight parts 21 and two bending parts 22 are included in a group of the cutting components 2. The two straight parts 21 are symmetrically arranged in the opposite direction on the power component 1, so that one end of the straight part 21 far from the power component 1 is connected to the bending part 22. The setting distance and quantity of each group of the cutting components 2 on the power component 1 are selected according to the requirements. For example, when installed between the pipes 6 in the evaporation system, it can be reasonably allocated according to the pipe diameter and the properties of the materials to improve the cutting efficiency.
[0044] More specifically, the longitudinal section of the bending part 22 is constructed as an isosceles trapezoid, and the upper base of the isosceles trapezoid is located on the side of the cutting edge 23 of the straight part 21, which is convenient for guiding the movement direction of the materials.
[0045] In the specific implementation process, see Figure 2 , the power component 1 includes a bearing seat 12 provided with a circulating water chamber 11. The circulating water chamber 11 is connected to a water cooling system through a circulating water pipe 13. The bearing seat 12 is cooled through the circulating water chamber 11 and the cold water system, that is, the heat energy on the bearing seat 12 is exchanged with the cooling water in the circulating water chamber 11 for cooling; more specifically, the circulating water chamber 11 is arranged on the outer wall or inner wall of the bearing seat 12 or one end face facing the cutting component 2 to control the temperature of the bearing seat 12. The water cooling system is external and is a prior art, so it will not be elaborated here.
[0046] In the specific implementation process, see Figures 1 - 2, the power component 1 further includes a motor 14, a gearbox 15, and a sealing assembly 16 that are connected in sequence. The bearing housing 12 is disposed between the gearbox 15 and the sealing assembly 16. Among them, the output shaft 151 of the gearbox 15 extends out of the sealing assembly 16, and the cutting member 2 is disposed on the output shaft 151 that extends out of the sealing assembly 16. The output shaft of the motor 14 is connected to the gearbox 15 to provide driving force to the gearbox 15. When the circulating water chamber 11 is disposed on the inner wall or outer wall of the bearing housing 12, the setting of the sealing assembly 16 prevents dust from entering, thereby extending its service life. The sealing assembly 16 can be a baffle structure arranged parallel to the bearing housing 12;
[0047] For connection stability, the power component 1 further includes a mounting flange 17 disposed between the bearing housing 12 and the sealing assembly 16.
[0048] Embodiment 2
[0049] An evaporation system includes the anti-blocking device described in Embodiment 1;
[0050] See Figure 6 , the anti-blocking device can be arranged on the circulating pipeline of the evaporation system to protect the heat exchanger, or integrated with the separator 9 or the heater 7 to break the coking particles or large particle blocking materials in the materials in the evaporation system, thereby extending the cleaning cycle of the evaporation system. This method is efficient, unmanned, and low in energy consumption.
[0051] For example, when the anti-blocking device is placed on the circulating pipeline of the evaporation system, the evaporation system includes a receiving member 4 and a filter 5 located inside the receiving member 4. The side of the anti-blocking device provided with the cutting member 2 is placed on the filter 5 to cut the materials entering the filter 5. The receiving member 4 is connected with two pipelines 6, and one pipeline 6 transports the materials into the receiving member 4. After being broken, the materials are sent to the heater 7 through the other pipeline 6. The filter 5 is used to block large particle substances between the filter 5 and the receiving member 4, and the materials entering the filter 5 are cut into smaller particles under the action of the cutting member 2 of the anti-blocking device. At the same time, due to the action of the cutting member 2, the turbulent flow characteristics of the materials flowing in the receiving member 4 are strengthened to effectively prevent the materials from aggregating and adhering in large quantities, thereby greatly extending the cleaning cycle of the entire system.
[0052] The filter 5 can be a filter screen structure or a cylindrical structure composed of a filter screen structure to filter large particles entering the receiving member 4, and the mesh size of the filter screen is selected according to actual needs.
[0053] It can be further explained that the evaporation system further includes a circulation pump 8 and a separator 9. The circulation pump 8, the accommodating member 4, the heater 7, and the separator 9 are sequentially connected through a pipeline 6. Among them, the feed port of the circulation pump 8 is communicated with the separator 9 through the pipeline 6, so as to form a circulation system among the circulation pump 8, the accommodating member 4, the heater 7, and the separator 9. That is, after the material from the circulation pump 8 enters the accommodating member 4 through the pipeline 6, large-particle materials are filtered outside the filter 5, while small-particle materials enter the filter 5 and are cut by the cutting member 2 and then flow out of the discharge port of the accommodating member 4 into the pipeline 6, and then pass through the heater 7 and the separator 9 in sequence, and then are transported to the circulation pump 8 through the pipeline 6 to complete a cycle.
[0054] Preferably, the heater 7 is provided with a steam inlet 71 and a condensate outlet 72.
[0055] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:
[0056] During the heating process of the material, coking particulate matters, entangled and agglomerated substances are formed. As the material circulates and flows, after flowing into the anti-blocking device, the filter 5 will intercept the too-large blocking substances, and the high-speed rotating cutting member 2 will cut the small-sized blocking materials into particles with a very small diameter. At the same time, the turbulent flow characteristics of the material flow are greatly enhanced, which can hinder the aggregation and adhesion of the blocking substances at positions such as the tube sheet, partition plate of the heater 7, and elbow of the pipeline 6, thereby greatly prolonging the cleaning cycle of the entire system.
[0057] It should be noted that in the above embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have their own focuses. For the parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.
[0058] Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, those skilled in the art can make additional changes and modifications once they know the basic inventive concept. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be construed as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the present invention.
[0059] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. In this way, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalent technologies, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
