Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of nitrogen generators, and more particularly to a compression sealing cover for nitrogen generators. Background Art

[0002] A nitrogen generator uses air as a raw material and physically separates oxygen and nitrogen to produce nitrogen. Industrial nitrogen generators can be categorized into three types: cryogenic air separation, molecular sieve air separation, and membrane air separation. Nitrogen generators are designed and manufactured using pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology. Using high-quality imported carbon molecular sieves as adsorbents, they utilize the principle of PSA at room temperature to separate air and produce high-purity nitrogen. Two adsorption towers are typically connected in parallel, with an imported PLC controlling the automatic operation of pneumatic valves. These towers alternate between pressurized adsorption and decompression regeneration to separate nitrogen and oxygen, producing the required high-purity nitrogen. The processing tank consists of a lower half tank and a sealing lid.

[0003] The lower half of some existing nitrogen generators is secured to the sealing cover via a flange. After prolonged use, the bolts and nuts between the flanges can become loose, creating a gap between the lower half and the sealing cover. This reduces the seal between the lower half and the sealing cover, potentially affecting the nitrogen production efficiency of the equipment. Therefore, to address this issue, we have proposed a pressure-sealed cover for nitrogen generators. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a pressure sealing cover for a nitrogen generator, which adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A pressure sealing cover for a nitrogen generator comprises a tank body, the tank body comprising a bottom tank and a sealing cover arranged above the bottom tank, a branch pipe being provided at the top of the sealing cover, a connecting pipe being provided at the side wall of the bottom tank, flanges being fixedly sleeved on the side walls of the bottom tank and the sealing cover at opposite ends, a sealing ring being fixedly installed on the inner wall of the lower section of the sealing cover, four horizontal plates distributed in a circular array being fixedly installed on the side wall of the sealing cover, and a stabilizing component being provided at the bottom end of each horizontal plate.
