Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fin-type heat exchangers, and in particular to an anti-clogging fin-type heat exchanger. Background Art

[0002] Finned heat exchangers are highly efficient heat exchange devices widely used in industrial, air conditioning, refrigeration, and heating systems. They improve heat transfer efficiency by increasing the heat transfer area. They typically consist of a base tube with fins extending along the surface. This design allows the fluid to contact a larger surface area as it passes through, accelerating heat transfer.

[0003] Finned heat exchangers operate based on heat conduction and convection. When two fluids flow through the heat exchanger, the fins increase the contact area, transferring heat from the high-temperature fluid to the low-temperature fluid. The shape and layout of the fins optimize fluid flow, reducing flow resistance and improving heat transfer efficiency.

[0004] However, after long-term operation, scale and other deposits may accumulate in the internal pipes of finned heat exchangers, which can hinder fluid flow, reduce heat transfer efficiency, and may cause local overheating or damage to the heat exchanger. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to facilitate the cleaning of scale attached to the inner wall of the base tube, the present application provides an anti-clogging fin-type heat exchanger.

[0006] The present application provides an anti-clogging fin heat exchanger adopting the following technical solution:

[0019] Optionally, the driving unit further comprises:

[0020] A transmission rod is mounted on the outer wall of the guide ring. An annular guide groove is provided on the mounting ring. The transmission rod and the guide groove are in sliding engagement.

[0035] The following is combined with Figures 1-4 This application is described in further detail.

[0036] The embodiments of the present application disclose an anti-clogging fin heat exchanger.

[0037] A fin-type heat exchanger with anti-clogging functionality primarily consists of a base tube 1, a mounting ring 2, and scrapers 3. The mounting ring 2 is fixed between adjacent base tubes 1 in a sealing manner, ensuring a tight seal between them. The inner wall of the mounting ring 2 features a structure that rotatably engages with a guide ring 21. The guide ring 21 achieves rotation through connection to a drive unit 4. The scrapers 3 are evenly distributed on the guide ring 21, and their fixed installation ensures stable operation.

[0038] During the scale cleaning operation, the operation of the drive unit 4 drives the guide ring 21 to rotate, thereby causing the scraper 3 to move circumferentially along the axis of the inner wall of the base pipe 1, effectively scraping off the scale attached to the inner wall of the base pipe 1, thereby significantly reducing the accumulation of scale and reducing the possibility of clogging of the base pipe 1.

[0039] The scraper 3 is structurally designed to include a blade body 31 and a mounting rod 32 that is consistent in length with the blade body 31. The two are tightly combined through an integral molding process. One end of the mounting rod 32 is provided with a thread for connecting a mounting nut 312 to ensure that the scraper 3 is fixed.

[0040] The guide ring 21 is provided with a mounting hole 22 in the form of a through hole, the length direction of which is consistent with the axial direction, so as to ensure accurate positioning of the scraper 3 during installation.

[0041] During the installation of the scraper 3 to the guide ring 21, first insert the mounting rod 32 into the mounting hole 22, use the inner wall of the mounting hole 22 to accurately position the mounting rod 32, and then tighten the mounting nut 312 to make the blade body 31 firmly pressed against the guide ring 21, thereby improving the convenience and efficiency of the installation of the scraper 3.

[0042] To facilitate adjustment of the scraper blade 3's operating inclination angle, the mounting hole 22 is provided with a plurality of evenly spaced limiting grooves 23 arranged circumferentially along the axis of the mounting hole 22. The mounting rod 32 is provided with corresponding limiting strips 321 extending along the same length as the mounting rod 32. During installation, the limiting strips 321 are inserted into the corresponding limiting slots 23 according to the desired operating inclination angle of the scraper 3, enabling precise adjustment.

[0043] Several parallel guide strips 311 are welded to the surface of the base tube 1. These strips 311 form a predetermined angle with the blade 31 of the scraper 3 along their length. As the heat exchange liquid flows through the heat exchanger, the strips 311 effectively guide the liquid's rotational flow, promoting the liquid's scouring effect on scale deposited on the inner wall of the base tube 1 and effectively reducing scale adhesion. Furthermore, the angle of the scraper 3 can be adjusted to accommodate base tubes 1 of varying inner diameters.

[0044] The drive unit 4 consists of a transmission rod 41 and a toggle rod 42. The mounting ring 2 is provided with an annular guide groove 24. The transmission rod 41 is removably mounted on the outer wall of the guide ring 21 and slides into the guide groove 24. During movement, the walls of the guide groove 24 precisely limit and guide the transmission rod 41, ensuring stable operation of the transmission rod 41 and the guide ring 21.

[0045] The toggle lever 42 is fixed to the end of the transmission rod 41 , and the operator only needs to rotate the toggle lever 42 to realize the rotation of the guide ring 21 , thereby improving the convenience of the rotation operation.

[0046] In order to reduce the risk of damage caused by collision during operation of the toggle rod 42, a protective cover 5 is installed on the mounting seat. The protective cover 5 is composed of two cover bodies 51, which are firmly connected by a bolt and nut assembly to form an effective protection area.

[0047] In order to further reduce the movement of the cover body 51 on the mounting seat, a positioning strip 52 is specially designed on the cover body 51, and a ring-shaped positioning groove 25 is provided on the outer ring wall of the mounting ring 2 to cooperate with it. The positioning strip 52 is plugged into the positioning groove 25 to ensure the stable positioning of the cover body 51.

[0048] The operating principle of the wind turbine main shaft nondestructive testing device according to the present embodiment is as follows: A worker rotates the guide ring 21 by turning the toggle lever 42. The guide ring 21 then rotates the scraper 3 to effectively scrape away scale adhering to the inner wall of the base pipe 1, significantly reducing scale accumulation. The predetermined angle between the guide bar 311 and the blade surface of the blade body 31 further directs the heat exchange liquid toward the inner wall of the base pipe 1 when it strikes the guide bar 311, enhancing the flushing effect and improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0049] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
