Description
Technical Field

[0002] Methylcyclohexane is an organic compound with the chemical formula C7H14. It is a derivative of cyclohexane. Methylcyclohexane is generally used as a solvent and may also be an intermediate or byproduct in certain industrial reactions. Its physical and chemical properties are similar to those of other alkanes, with parameters such as boiling point and melting point being affected by the carbon chain structure.
[0003] When methylcyclohexane needs to be refined, distillation is typically used. Distillation is a physical process that separates components in a liquid mixture based on their boiling point differences. In laboratories and industrial production, distillation is commonly used to purify liquids or separate liquid mixtures. However, in practice, because the heating source of existing distillation equipment is fixed in position, relying solely on heating at the bottom of the distillation flask can easily lead to uneven heating of the distillation flask, thereby reducing extraction efficiency and potentially affecting the quality of the methylcyclohexane.
[0004] Therefore, a distillation apparatus for refining methylcyclohexane that can adjust the heating position is needed. Utility Model Content

[0027] Example 1: A distillation apparatus for extracting methylcyclohexane, see Figures 1-6, including a protective box 1, a protective door 2, a bottom plate 9, a heating component 10, a support plate 11, a clamping component 12, a flask 13, a fixed plate 14, a distillation tube 15, an evaporation tube 16, a cooling mechanism and a temperature detector 20. The front side of the protective box 1 is rotatably provided with a protective door 2, the interior of the protective box 1 is slidably provided with a bottom plate 9, the bottom plate 9 is provided with a heating component 10 by bolt connection, the left side of the protective box 1 is fixedly connected with a support plate 11, the support plate 11 is rotatably provided with a clamping component 12, and a protective pad is provided inside the clamping component 12 to reduce the clamping The pressure between the component 12 and the flask 13 is to prevent the flask 13 from being broken due to excessive pressure, and an adjusting knob is provided on the clamping component 12. By turning the adjusting knob, the tightness of the clamping component can be adjusted. The clamping component 12 clamps the flask 13. The contact surface between the heating component 10 and the flask 13 is a curved surface, which increases the contact area between the heating component 10 and the flask 13. A fixing plate 14 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the interior of the protective box 1. A distillation tube 15 is connected to the front side of the fixing plate 14. The neck of the flask 13 contacts the distillation tube 15. The right side of the distillation tube 15 is connected and communicated with an evaporation tube 16. The evaporation tube 16 is provided with a support shell 17, and a condenser 18 is provided on the support shell 17 by means of bolt connection. The left and right sides of the condenser 18 are connected with condenser tubes 19, and the condenser tubes 19 are wound around the evaporation tube 16. A temperature detector 20 is provided on the top of the distillation tube 15 by means of bolt connection. Two support seats 4 are provided at the bottom of the protective box 1 by means of bolt connection. Two sliding cylinders 5 are slidingly provided on the support seat 4. A lifting seat 6 is provided at the bottom of the bottom plate 9 by means of bolt connection. The lifting seat 6 is fixedly connected to the sliding cylinder 5, and the two sliding cylinders 5 aligned vertically are connected. A connecting plate 7 is fixedly connected between the protective box 1, and a bidirectional screw 8 is rotatably provided inside the protective box 1. The bidirectional screw 8 is threadedly connected to the connecting plate 7. An observation window 3 is embedded in the protective door 2, and the observation window 3 is convenient for viewing the situation inside the protective box 1. A sleeve 21 is provided at the end of the evaporation tube 16, and a filter plate 22 is embedded in the sleeve 21. The filter plate 22 filters impurities carried in the liquid substance and separates the impurities from the liquid substance, thereby improving the quality of the liquid substance. A placement groove 30 is provided at the bottom of the protective box 1, and the placement groove 30 is used to place a receiving container.
[0028] When it is necessary to refine methylcyclohexane, the liquid mixture to be separated is first poured into the flask 13. Then, the protective door 2 is rotated outward to open the protective box 1, and the flask 13 is placed in the clamping assembly 12. The adjusting knob on the clamping assembly 12 is rotated to clamp the flask 13. At this time, the neck of the flask 13 is connected to the distillation head of the distillation tube 15. Then, the bidirectional screw 8 rotates to drive the connecting plate 7 to move inward, and the sliding cylinder 5 also moves inward, thereby expanding the lifting seat 6 and driving the bottom plate 9 to move upward, so as to adjust the position of the heating assembly 10 to ensure that the heating assembly 10 is in full contact with the flask 13, avoid uneven heating of the flask 13, thereby improving the refining efficiency and the quality of methylcyclohexane.

When the heating temperature needs to be adjusted, it can be achieved by adjusting the power of the heating component 10, thereby effectively avoiding the formation of by-products or decomposition of raw materials due to overheating. As the distillation proceeds, the rising steam enters the evaporation tube 16. At the same time, the condenser 18 is turned on to operate the condenser 19. The rising steam is cooled back to liquid by the cooling water circulation inside the condenser 19, and then the liquid substance is discharged through the evaporation tube 16 and finally flows into the receiving container for collection.

Two alarms 25 are provided on the top of the protective box 1 by means of bolt connection. The alarms 25 are electrically connected to the controller 24.
[0030] When methylcyclohexane is being refined, the gas detector 23 is turned on. The gas detector 23 detects the gas concentration in the protective box 1 in real time. When the gas detector 23 detects that the concentration of harmful gases in the protective box 1 exceeds the standard, it transmits a signal to the controller 24. The controller 24 then activates the alarm 25 and sounds an alarm, thereby reminding the staff to take corresponding measures in time to ensure safe operation.
[0031] See also Figure 5An exhaust box 26 is provided on the rear side of the protective box 1 by means of bolt connection, and an exhaust device 2601 is provided on the top of the exhaust box 26. The exhaust device 2601 is connected to the controller 24 signal, and two exhaust pipes 27 are connected to the top of the exhaust device 2601.

The rear side of the exhaust box 26 is connected and communicated with a connecting pipe 29.
[0032] When the gas detector 23 detects harmful gas, it will transmit a signal to the controller 24, and the controller 24 will then start the exhaust device 2601. The exhaust device 2601 starts to operate and draws the gas inside the protective box 1 into the exhaust pipe 27 through the air permeable plate 28, and then into the exhaust box 26 through the exhaust pipe 27, thereby centrally collecting the harmful gas and avoiding safety hazards.
