[0031] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.

[0032] Example:

[0033] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a steam heating tubular filter comprises a cylindrical body 21 in the shape of a circular tube, and the left and right ends of the cylindrical body 21 are respectively a left flange 11 and a right flange 13. Figure 3 As shown, threaded holes 16 are provided on the outer sides of the left flange 11 and the right flange 13. The threaded holes 16 are blind holes and are evenly distributed around the centers of the left flange 11 and the right flange 13. A liquid outlet 12 is provided at the center of the left flange 11 on the left side, and a liquid inlet 14 is provided at the center of the right flange 13 on the right side. The left flange 11 and the right flange 13 are both welded to the cylinder 21 to achieve welding and fixation. Figure 1 As shown, the right flange 13 is provided with a filter structure 15 at the position of the liquid inlet 14. The filter structure 15 adopts a filter basket structure, which belongs to the existing technology and has nothing to do with the steam heating structure, so it is not described in detail.

[0034] like Figure 1As shown, a sleeve 22 is concentrically provided on the outside of the cylinder 21, and the two ends of the sleeve 22 in the length direction are welded and fixed to the inner side of the left flange 11 and the inner side of the right flange 13 respectively. A sealed annular cavity is formed between the inner side of the sleeve 22, the inner side of the left flange 11, the inner side of the right flange 13 and the outer side of the cylinder 21. A steam inlet 23 is provided at the top of the sleeve 22, and a condensate outlet 24 is provided at the bottom of the sleeve 22. At the same time, the steam inlet 23 and the condensate outlet 24 are respectively located at the two ends of the length direction of the sleeve 22, the steam inlet 23 is provided at one end of the right flange 13, and the condensate outlet 24 is provided at one end of the left flange 11. Its specific structure is that a single screw pipe clamp 25 is welded at the position of the condensate outlet 24 and the steam inlet 23, which are connected to the steam pipe and the drain pipe through the single screw pipe clamp 25. When not in use, a hexagonal head screw plug 26 is threaded on the single screw pipe clamp 25 for sealing.

[0035] The annular cavity has three functional areas in the height direction, namely the steam inlet cavity 31 in the middle and upper part, the heat exchange cavity 32 in the middle and lower part, and the condensate flow channel 33 at the bottom. It should be known that the inner side of the sleeve 22 structure is inclined, that is, the inner side of the sleeve 22 is inclined toward the center in the direction of the right flange 13.

[0036] The sleeve 22 is provided with heat exchange fins 41 in the heat exchange cavity 32. The heat exchange fins 41 are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the cylinder 21. At the same time, the outer contour of the heat exchange fins 41 along the axial direction of the cylinder 21 is gradually reduced. Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the specific structure of the heat exchanger 41 is that the heat exchanger 41 includes an arc segment 42 and a U-shaped segment 43. The inner side of the U-shaped segment 43 is in contact with the inner wall of the cylinder 21, and the outer side of the U-shaped segment 43 is matched with the inner wall of the sleeve 22 to form an insulating gap 45. The arc segments are respectively arranged at both ends of the length direction of the U-shaped segment 43; in order to prevent the heat exchanger 41 from falling off in the unwelded state, an inclusion angle is formed between adjacent arc segments to cover the outer side of the cylinder 21, and the angle of the inclusion angle is less than 180 degrees.

[0037] At the same time, the condensate flow channel 33 has two settings. In this embodiment, the bottom of the heat exchange plate 41 is radially inwardly recessed to form a recessed area 44, and the condensate flow channel 33 passes through the adjacent recessed area 44, that is, the condensate flow channel 33 is surrounded by the bottom of the recessed area 44 and the bottom of the sleeve 22; or the condensate flow channel 33 is formed by the bottom recess of the inner wall of the sleeve 22 (that is, a groove is opened at the bottom of the inner wall of the sleeve 22), and the condensate flow channel 33 passes through the condensate outlet 24.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, in order to facilitate the welding and installation of the heat exchange plate 41, a positioning welding structure is provided on the outside of the cylinder 21, and the positioning welding structure includes a mounting groove 51 provided on the outside of the cylinder 21, and the mounting groove 51 extends along the axial direction of the cylinder 21. A positioning strip 52 is provided in the mounting groove 51, and the positioning strip 52 is evenly distributed with welding positioning grooves 53 along the axial direction of the cylinder 21. The welding positioning groove 53 is clamped with the inner side of the heat exchange plate 41, and at least one welding positioning groove 53 is provided in the circumference of the cylinder 21. The longitudinal cross-section of the welding positioning groove 53 is rectangular, the longitudinal cross-section of the bottom of the welding positioning groove 53 is rectangular, and the longitudinal cross-section of the top of the welding positioning groove 53 is arc-shaped.

[0039] Working principle:

[0040] During use, the inner side of the sleeve 22 is composed of the steam inlet chamber 31, the heat exchange chamber 32 and the condensate flow channel 33 from top to bottom. High-temperature steam is rushed into the steam inlet chamber 31 through the pipe, filling the top of the annular cavity, flowing downward and contacting the heat exchange plate 41. The heat exchange plate 41 transfers heat to the cylinder 21. The heat exchange plate 41 increases the contact area between the cylinder 21 and the steam. After heat exchange, the steam condenses, and the condensed water flows through the condensate flow channel 33 at the bottom and is discharged out of the filter through the condensate outlet 24.
