DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following is a detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Example:

[0028] The following is a specific embodiment of the adsorption dryer of the present invention. Figure 1 It mainly includes a compressor 1, a first adsorption tower 2, a second adsorption tower 3, a blower 4, and a heater 5. The outside of the first adsorption tower 2 is provided with a first jacket 6, and the outside of the second adsorption tower 3 is provided with a second jacket 7.

An intermediate connecting pipe L2 is provided between the top end of the first adsorption tower 2 and the top end of the second adsorption tower 3, and an intermediate control valve AP is provided on the intermediate connecting pipe L2. 21 and intermediate control valve BP 22 , intermediate control valve AP 21 Set near the first adsorption tower 2, intermediate control valve BP 22It is arranged close to the second adsorption tower 3. The output end of the second adsorption tower 3 is connected to a first gas outlet pipe L3, and a first gas outlet valve P3 is provided on the first gas outlet pipe L3.

[0030] The first intake pipe L1 between the compressor 1 and the first intake valve P1 is connected to the second intake pipe L4, and the other end of the second intake pipe L4 is connected to the intermediate control valve AP 21 With intermediate control valve BP 22 A second intake valve P4 is provided on the intermediate connecting pipe L2 and the second intake pipe L4.

[0031] Intermediate control valve AP 21 With intermediate control valve BP 22 The middle connecting pipe L2 is also connected to a second air outlet pipe L5, and the second air outlet pipe L5 is provided with a second air outlet valve P5.

[0032] The blower 4 is connected to the heater 5, and the output end of the heater 5 is connected in parallel with the first desorption pipe L6 and the second desorption pipe L7. The other end of the first desorption pipe L6 is connected to the top of the first adsorption tower 2 and the intermediate control valve AP 21 The first hot air inlet valve P6 is provided on the intermediate connecting pipe L2 between the first desorption pipe L6 and the second desorption pipe L7. The other end of the second desorption pipe L7 is connected to the top of the second adsorption tower 3 and the intermediate control valve BP. 22 A second hot air inlet valve P7 is provided on the intermediate connecting pipe L2 and the second desorption pipe L7.

[0033] The first air inlet pipe L1 between the bottom end of the first adsorption tower 2 and the first air inlet valve P1 is connected to the first hot air circulation pipe L8. The other end of the first hot air circulation pipe L8 is connected to the lower part of the first jacket 6. The first hot air circulation pipe L8 is provided with a first circulation control valve P8. The upper part of the first jacket 6 is also connected to the first air outlet pipe L 10 .

[0034] The first outlet pipe L3 between the bottom end of the second adsorption tower 3 and the first outlet valve P3 is connected to the second hot air circulation pipe L9, the other end of the second hot air circulation pipe L9 is connected to the lower part of the second jacket 7, the second hot air circulation pipe L9 is provided with a second circulation control valve P9, and the upper part of the second jacket 7 is also connected to the second outlet pipe L 11 .

[0035] The internal structures of the first adsorption tower 2 and the second adsorption tower 3 are the same. Figure 4 、 Figure 5 Taking the first adsorption tower 2 as an example, a plurality of desiccant horizontal plates 8 are arranged in an upper and lower interval arrangement in the first adsorption tower 2, and a plurality of desiccant folding plates 9 are connected between two adjacent desiccant horizontal plates 8. Figure 6The specific structure of the desiccant folding plate 9 is as follows: the desiccant folding plate 9 is formed by splicing together several sections of desiccant support plates 9a into a corrugated plate shape, and the angle between the two upper and lower spliced ​​desiccant support plates 9a is greater than 90 degrees. When the desiccant folding plate 9 is installed, the two adjacent desiccant folding plates 9 are arranged in opposite directions, and the upper and lower sides of each desiccant folding plate 9 are respectively connected to the two upper and lower desiccant cross plates 8, and the two side edges of each desiccant folding plate 9 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the first adsorption tower 2. At least one baffle 10 is also connected between the two adjacent desiccant folding plates 9, and the baffle 10 is connected to the folding point where the two adjacent desiccant folding plates 9 are close to each other. In addition, at least one baffle 10 is also connected between the edge desiccant folding plate 9 and the inner wall of the first adsorption tower 2, and one end of the baffle 10 is connected to the folding point of the desiccant folding plate 9 close to the inner wall of the first adsorption tower 2, and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the first adsorption tower 2. The first adsorption tower 2 is equipped with a honeycomb-shaped adsorption structure by combining the desiccant horizontal plate 8, the desiccant folding plate 9, and the baffle 10. This not only increases the layout area of ​​the desiccant, but also increases the air flow path while ensuring that the air has a good flow rate, thereby helping to speed up the adsorption and desorption speeds and improve the working efficiency of the dryer.

[0036] The internal structures of the first jacket 6 and the second jacket 7 are the same. Figure 5 、 Figure 7 Taking the first jacket 6 as an example, the first jacket 6 is cylindrical, with its upper and lower ends aligned with the outer wall of the first adsorption tower 2. The first jacket 6 has a cavity 11 within it, and the inner wall of the first jacket 6 and the outer wall of the first adsorption tower 2 form a uniform annular gap. Within this annular gap, a plurality of guide plates 12 are spaced apart vertically. Two adjacent guide plates 12 are centrally symmetrically distributed about a point on the central axis of the first jacket 6 (this point is not at the height of any guide plate 12). The guide plates 12 are fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the first jacket 6, with the inner sides aligned with the outer wall of the first adsorption tower 2. The guide plates 12 are curved, with an arc greater than 180 degrees and less than 360 degrees. The hot air entering the first jacket 6 is deflected upward by the guide plates 12, further utilizing the residual heat of the hot air to evaporate the moisture from the desiccant in the first adsorption tower 2, saving energy and improving the desorption effect.

[0037] When the adsorption dryer of this embodiment is in operation, the first adsorption tower 2 and the second adsorption tower 3 can be controlled by switching valves to perform adsorption simultaneously, or to perform adsorption and desorption continuously, thereby improving the working efficiency of the dryer.

[0038] Specifically, when the first adsorption tower 2 and the second adsorption tower 3 are used for simultaneous adsorption, Figure 1 As shown, open the first intake valve P1 and the intermediate control valve AP 21 , intermediate control valve BP22 The first outlet valve P3 is closed, and the other valves are closed. Compressor 1 flows air through the first inlet pipe L1 into the first adsorption tower 2 for adsorption. The air then flows through the intermediate connecting pipe L2 into the second adsorption tower 3 for secondary adsorption. The resulting dry air is discharged through the first outlet pipe L3.

[0039] When the second adsorption tower 3 is used for adsorption and the first adsorption tower 2 for desorption, Figure 2 As shown, open the second intake valve P4 and the intermediate control valve BP 22 , the first air outlet valve P3, the first hot air inlet valve P6, the first circulation control valve P8, and the remaining valves are closed. The compressor 1 flows the air into the second adsorption tower 3 through the first air inlet pipe L1, the second air inlet pipe L4, and the intermediate connecting pipe L2 for adsorption, and the obtained dry air is discharged through the first air outlet pipe L3. At the same time, the blower 4 heats the external air through the heater 5 and sends it into the first adsorption tower 2 through the first desorption pipe L6 and the intermediate connecting pipe L2 to desorb the desiccant in the first adsorption tower 2. Then the hot air will continue to be sent to the first jacket 6 through the first hot air circulation pipe L8, and will be deflected and flow upward under the action of the guide plate 12, further making full use of the residual heat of the hot air to evaporate the moisture in the desiccant in the first adsorption tower 2. The hot air finally passes through the first air outlet pipe L 10 discharge.

[0040] When the first adsorption tower 2 is used for adsorption and the second adsorption tower 3 for desorption, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, open the first intake valve P1 and the intermediate control valve AP 21 , the second air outlet valve P5, the second hot air inlet valve P7, the second circulation control valve P9, and the remaining valves are closed. The compressor 1 flows the air into the first adsorption tower 2 through the first air inlet pipe L1 for adsorption, and the obtained dry air is discharged through the intermediate connecting pipe L2 and the second air outlet pipe L5. At the same time, the blower 4 heats the outside air through the heater 5 and sends it into the second adsorption tower 3 through the second desorption pipe L7 and the intermediate connecting pipe L2 to desorb the desiccant in the second adsorption tower 3. Then the hot air will continue to be sent to the second jacket 7 through the second hot air circulation pipe L9, and will be deflected and flowed upward under the action of the guide plate 12, further making full use of the residual heat of the hot air to evaporate the moisture in the desiccant in the second adsorption tower 3. The hot air will finally pass through the second air outlet pipe L 11 discharge.

[0041] The above embodiments are intended only to illustrate the technical concepts and features of the present invention. Their purpose is to enable those familiar with the art to understand the present invention and implement it accordingly. They are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
