Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of filling temperature control, in particular to a device for controlling the temperature of materials in a filling process. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of polyether, the main raw materials include rigid foam polyether, soft foam polyether and polymer polyols. For a variety of customized products, the storage and filling temperature requirements of the tank are high. In particular, high-viscosity materials are difficult to fill, so the control of the discharge temperature is required to be high.

[0003] Currently, there are filling devices with cooling functions, such as the environmentally friendly system for rapid cold filling of viscous materials in announcement number CN108640069A. The device includes a storage tank, a feed pump, a cooling tank, a discharge valve, an auger, a material valve and a refrigerant valve. The cooling tank adopts a scraper structure and the stirring paddle adopts an axial flow structure.

[0004] However, the above device needs to rely on a cooling tank to reduce the material to a specified temperature before filling. It is difficult to discharge materials with higher viscosity through a pump. There is a large amount of material residue in the storage tank and pipeline, and the energy consumption is high. It is not suitable for product switching in the storage tank, and there is a large problem in product quality. Therefore, we proposed a control device for the material temperature of the filling process to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a device for controlling the temperature of materials during the filling process, so as to solve the problem that the existing device proposed in the above background technology needs to rely on a cooling tank to reduce the material to a specified temperature before filling. It is difficult to discharge materials with high viscosity through a pump, and the material residue in the storage tank and pipeline is large and the energy consumption is high. It is not suitable for product switching in the storage tank, and there are major problems with product quality.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: a control device for the material temperature during the filling process, comprising a storage tank, a feed port being provided at the upper end of the storage tank, a discharge regulating valve being installed at the lower end of the storage tank, a discharge pipe being installed at the lower end of the discharge regulating valve, a discharge pump being installed at one end of the discharge pipe, a discharge pipe being installed at the output end of the discharge pump, a heat exchanger being installed on the outside of the discharge pipe, a cooling chamber being provided inside the heat exchanger, a cooling water inlet being provided below the rear end of the heat exchanger, and a cooling water outlet being provided above the rear end of the heat exchanger.

[0007] Preferably, a confluence main pipe is installed at one end of the discharge pipe, a U-shaped section is provided inside the discharge pipe, two U-shaped sections are provided, and both U-shaped sections extend to the outside of the heat exchanger, a first electrically controlled three-way valve is installed inside the U-shaped section, a confluence branch pipe is installed at the front end of the first electrically controlled three-way valve, and one end of the confluence branch pipe is connected to the confluence main pipe.

[0008] Preferably, a second electrically controlled three-way valve is installed at the connection between the branch conduit and the main conduit.

[0009] Preferably, the rear end of the second electrically controlled three-way valve is fixedly connected to the storage tank via a bracket.

[0010] Preferably, temperature sensors are installed on both the branch conduits and the main conduit.

[0011] Preferably, a baffle is provided inside the heat exchanger, and a plurality of baffles are provided, and the baffles are staggered.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0013] The utility model arranges a heat exchanger outside the discharge pipe, and a plurality of staggered baffle structures are arranged inside the heat exchanger. After cooling water is pumped in, the temperature of the material in the discharge pipe can be brought down by the baffle effect, thereby achieving cooling treatment. The converging main pipe at the end of the discharge pipe can be directly connected to the filling equipment, which solves the problem that the existing device needs to rely on the cooling tank to reduce the material to a specified temperature before filling. It is difficult to discharge materials with high viscosity through the pump, and the material residue in the storage tank and pipeline is large and the energy consumption is high. It is not suitable for product switching with the storage tank, and there are major product quality problems.

[0014] The temperature control method of the heat exchanger of the present invention not only relies on the conventional cooling water flow regulation, but is also provided with a three-section controllable structure. According to the viscosity of the filling material and the cooling requirement, the cooling method of different length sections can be selected. When the first electric-controlled three-way valve on the lower U-shaped section is opened to connect the U-shaped section with the confluence branch pipe, the time and distance for the material to remain in the heat exchanger is the shortest, which is suitable for materials with low cooling requirements and high viscosity. When the first electric-controlled three-way valve is switched to connect the discharge pipe and the upper U-shaped section is opened, the material can be cooled and cooled. When the first electrically controlled three-way valve on the U-shaped segment connects the U-shaped segment with the confluence branch pipe, the time and distance the material stays in the heat exchanger is moderate, which is suitable for materials with moderate cooling requirements and viscosity. When the first electrically controlled three-way valves on the two sets of U-shaped segments are switched to connect the discharge pipes, the material directly enters the confluence main pipe along the end of the discharge pipe. At this time, the time and distance the material stays in the heat exchanger is the longest, which is suitable for materials with high cooling requirements and low viscosity. The three-stage heat exchange improves the flexibility of filling and cooling, making temperature control more precise. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
