This may not only lead to a decline in compressor performance, but may even cause serious safety accidents, resulting in significant economic losses to the company. Utility Model Content

[0023] The utility model provides an online detection device for a carbon dioxide compressor. Figure 1 As shown, it includes: a tested compressor 1, an air outlet of the tested compressor 1 is connected to the air inlet of the air cooler 2, a liquid outlet of the air cooler 2 is connected to the liquid inlet of the liquid reservoir 3, the liquid outlet of the liquid reservoir 3 is connected to the first interface of the plate heat exchanger 4, a first expansion valve 5 is provided between the second interface and the third interface of the plate heat exchanger 4, the fourth interface of the plate heat exchanger 4 is connected to the liquid inlet of the evaporator 6, the air outlet of the evaporator 6 is connected to the air inlet of the gas-liquid separator 7, the air outlet of the gas-liquid separator 7 is connected to the air inlet of the tested compressor 1, after the gas passes through the gas-liquid separator 7, the liquid in the gas remains in the liquid storage cavity of the gas-liquid separator 7, and the gas is discharged from the air outlet, the carbon dioxide gas source 8 is connected to the air inlet of the gas-liquid separator 7, the air inlet of the constant pressure container 9 is connected to the air outlet of the tested compressor 1, and the air outlet of the constant pressure container 9 is connected to the air inlet of the tested compressor 1.

[0024] The air outlet of the tested compressor 1 is connected to the air inlet of the oil mist filter 10, and the air outlet of the oil mist filter 10 is connected to the air inlet of the air cooler 2 and the air inlet of the constant pressure container 9 respectively. After the carbon dioxide gas is compressed by the compressor 1, lubricating oil will be mixed into the gas. The oil mist filter 10 is used to filter out the lubricating oil in the carbon dioxide gas. The air inlet of the constant pressure container 9 is provided with a first stop valve 11, and the air outlet of the constant pressure container 9 is provided with a second stop valve 12. The second stop valve 12 is used to open or close the air flow. The air inlet of the buffer 13 is connected to the carbon dioxide gas source 8, and the air outlet of the buffer 13 is connected to the air inlet of the gas-liquid separator 7. The buffer 13 is used to temporarily store the gas transported from the carbon dioxide gas source 8. The carbon dioxide is compressed as a refrigerant to meet the requirements of continuous gas supply. A flow meter 14 is provided on the pipeline connecting the air outlet of the buffer 13 and the air inlet of the gas-liquid separator 7 for real-time monitoring of the gas flow. A second expansion valve 15 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the fourth interface of the plate heat exchanger 4 and the liquid inlet of the evaporator 6 to reduce the pressure of the liquid. The plate heat exchanger 4 is used to cool the liquid. A first pressure relief valve 16 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the air outlet of the tested compressor 1 and the air inlet of the oil mist filter 10. A second pressure relief valve 17 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the air outlet of the oil mist filter 10 and the air inlet of the air cooler 2. When the air pressure exceeds the threshold of the safe air pressure, the first pressure relief valve 16 and the second pressure relief valve 17 will open to relieve the pressure and ensure that the air pressure is within the normal range. A pressure sensor 18 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the carbon dioxide gas source 8 and the air inlet of the buffer 13 to monitor the gas pressure value in real time. A third shut-off valve 19 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the air outlet of the oil mist filter 10 and the air inlet of the air cooler 2 to open or close the air flow channel.

[0025] The working principle and beneficial technical effects of the above technical solution are as follows: the first stop valve 11 and the second stop valve 12 are closed, the third stop valve 19 is started, the carbon dioxide gas source 8 buffers the carbon dioxide gas and separates the gas-liquid, and the dry gas enters the compressor 1 under test for compression. A small amount of lubricating oil will be mixed in the gas, which is filtered and deoiled by the oil mist filter 10. After that, the gas is cooled and liquefied by the air cooler 2 and enters the liquid reservoir 3 for storage, and then cooled by the heat exchanger 4. The second expansion valve 15 reduces the pressure and evaporates into a gaseous state by the evaporator 6. A small amount of water will be mixed in. The gas finally enters the gas-liquid separator 7 to separate the liquid, and then the dry carbon dioxide gas enters the compressor 1 under test to complete the refrigeration cycle. When it is necessary to detect the compressor, close the third stop valve 19 and the second stop valve 12, start the first stop valve 11, and cut off the refrigeration cycle. The carbon dioxide in the carbon dioxide gas source 8 first passes through the gas-liquid separator 7 to remove moisture, enters the tested compressor 1 for gas compression, and is filtered by the oil mist filter 10 before entering the constant pressure container 9 for storage. The operating status of the compressor is judged by whether the pressure change and the boost time parameters in the constant pressure container 9 are within the normal parameter range. When the pressure change and the boost time parameters are within the normal parameter range, the compressor is operating normally. Otherwise, the compressor is operating abnormally and the compressor needs to be repaired. Since the refrigeration cycle is closed by the stop valve when the compressor is detected, the compressor can be detected. After the detection is completed, the refrigeration cycle is restarted by the stop valve, and the compressor can operate normally, thereby improving the detection efficiency of the compressor.

[0026] Obviously, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is intended to include such modifications and variations.
