DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The following is a combination of the appended examples of the present invention Figure 1-4 , the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail. Example 1
[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the utility model is an ultrasonic self-cleaning device for a large evaporator, comprising an evaporating barrel 1 and four water rings 2 that are attached to each other and surround the outer periphery of the evaporating barrel 1. The evaporating barrel 1 and the water rings 2 are both existing products. The bottom of the evaporating barrel 1 is fixedly connected to the outer cover 11. A first cavity is formed between the outer cover 11 and the lower wall of the evaporating barrel 1. The bottom of the water rings 2 is fixedly connected to a lower pad 21. A second cavity is formed between the lower pad 21 and the lower wall of the water rings 2.
[0024] The first transducer 3 is installed in the first cavity and abuts the lower wall of the evaporator barrel 1. The first drain pipe 4 is installed in the middle of the bottom of the evaporator barrel 1. One end of the first drain pipe 4 communicates with the inner cavity of the evaporator barrel 1, and the other end extends out of the first cavity and is located outside the outer cover 11. The first flushing assembly 5 is installed on the inner wall of the evaporator barrel 1. The installation height of the first flushing assembly 5 is below the lowest water level of the evaporator barrel 1 during operation, so it does not affect the measurement of evaporation. The second transducer 6 is installed in the second cavity and abuts the lower wall of the water ring 2. The second drain pipe 7 communicates with the water ring 2 and extends out of the second cavity and out of the lower pad 21. The second flushing assembly 8 is installed on the inner wall of the water ring 2. All water rings 2 are interconnected via the connecting assembly 9.
[0025] The first transducer 3 and the second transducer 6 are both existing products, which convert the sound energy of the power ultrasonic frequency source into mechanical vibration, and then radiate the ultrasonic wave into the liquid. Due to the radiation of the ultrasonic wave, the microbubbles in the liquid can maintain vibration under the action of the sound waves, thereby achieving ultrasonic cleaning of the inner walls of the evaporation barrel 1 and the water circle 2, and removing garbage and impurities attached to the inner walls.
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the first drain pipe 4 includes a pipe body 41 , a first electric valve 42 is fixedly mounted on the pipe body 41 , a vortex drainer 43 is mounted on the top of the pipe body 41 , and the bottom of the pipe body 41 is connected to the external drainage system.
[0027] When the first drain pipe 4 is working, the first electric valve 42 is opened, and the water in the evaporation barrel 1 is discharged from the pipe body 41. Since the pipe body 1 is located at the bottom of the evaporation barrel 1, combined with the action of the vortex drainer 43, a vortex is generated, which sweeps away the garbage and impurities dropped after ultrasonic cleaning and discharges them from the pipe body 41, reducing the residue. Moreover, the small amount of residue can be almost completely cleaned without residue after being flushed by the first flushing component 5.
[0028] like Figure 1-2As shown, the first flushing component 5 includes a first water inlet pipe 51, which is connected to the first water diversion circle 52. After the first drain pipe 4 has finished draining, the first flushing component 5 starts to work, the first water inlet pipe 51 starts to add water, and then flows out from the first water diversion circle 52 to flush the inner wall of the evaporation barrel 1, and wash away the residual garbage and impurities. The working time of the first flushing component 5 can be preset in advance or manually operated according to actual conditions. When the first flushing component 5 completes the flushing work, the first electric valve 42 is closed, and the first flushing component 5 starts to store water until the water level in the evaporation barrel 1 reaches an appropriate height, and then stops working.
[0029] The first water diversion ring 52 is in the shape of a ring and can fit perfectly with the inner wall of the evaporation barrel 1 to facilitate flushing of the inner wall. The top of the first water diversion ring 52 is tilted inward, so that garbage and impurities will not remain on its top, greatly improving the cleaning effect and efficiency.
[0030] A second electric valve is installed on the second drain pipe 7. When the second drain pipe 7 is in operation, the second electric valve opens to drain water and discharge the sewage and garbage after ultrasonic cleaning. The bottom end of the second drain pipe 7 is also connected to the external drainage system. Since the water level in the water circle 2 is much lower than the water level of the evaporation barrel 1, the garbage and impurities generated are also much less than those in the evaporation barrel 1, so there is no need for a vortex drainer.
[0031] The second flushing assembly 8 includes a second water inlet pipe 81 and a second water diversion circle 82. The second water inlet pipe 81 is connected to the second water diversion circle 82, and the second water diversion circle 82 is installed on the inner wall of the water circle 2. After the second drain pipe 7 has finished draining, the second flushing assembly 8 starts to work, and the second water inlet pipe 81 starts to add water, which flows out from the second water diversion circle 82 to flush the inner wall of the water circle 2 and wash away the remaining garbage and impurities. When the second flushing assembly 8 completes the flushing work, the second electric valve is closed, and the second flushing assembly 8 starts to store water until the water level in the water circle 2 reaches an appropriate height and then stops working.
[0032] Since the water storage capacities of the evaporation drum 1 and the water ring 2 are different, the first water inlet pipe 51 and the second water inlet pipe 81 are not shared to avoid waste.
[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, the inner side of the outer wall of the water ring 2 fits together and protrudes to form a fixing seat 22. The cross-section of the fixing seat 22 is annular and is an integral structure with the water ring 2. The middle opening of the fixing seat 22 and the openings of the two adjacent water rings 2 correspond to each other and are connected through the connecting component 9.
[0034] The connecting assembly 9 includes a fixing buckle 91 and a water-proof membrane pipe 92. The water-proof membrane pipe 92 passes through the openings of the two adjacent water circles 2. The two ends of the water-proof membrane pipe 92 are respectively fitted with the end faces of the fixing seats 22 of the two adjacent water circles 2. The fixing buckle 91 is threadedly connected to the fixing seat 22 and fits with the water-proof membrane pipe 92 located on the end face of the fixing seat 22. Deformation is generated by extrusion, so that the water-proof membrane pipe 92 will not fall off.
[0035] The water circles 2 are connected by the connecting assembly 9 to form a soft connection, and the second transducers 6 will not interfere with each other when working. Therefore, the water circles 2 can be cleaned at the same time, or they can be cleaned separately according to actual conditions, which is more practical. When draining after separate cleaning, the water levels of other water circles 2 will also drop below the fixed seat 22. When the flushing is completed and the water is stored, the water levels of other water circles 2 will also be replenished until the water levels of all water circles 2 reach the appropriate height and the water storage work is completed.
[0036] Of course, the connecting component 9 can also change the waterproof membrane pipe 92 into a hard pipe, so that the water circles 2 are hard connected, and the second transducer 6 needs to ensure the same frequency, or a single second transducer 6 can be used to perform ultrasonic cleaning on the four water circles 2 at the same time.
[0037] The method of using the ultrasonic self-cleaning device for a large evaporator of this embodiment is as follows:
[0038] When cleaning is required, the first transducer 3 and the second transducer 6 are started to perform ultrasonic cleaning on the evaporation barrel 1 and the water circle 2 respectively, so that the garbage and impurities adsorbed on the inner wall fall off. When the set time is reached, the first transducer 3 and the second transducer 6 are closed, and the first electric valve 42 and the second electric valve are opened to discharge the sewage and garbage in the evaporation barrel 1 and the water circle 2 through the first drain pipe 4 and the second drain pipe 7. The vortex drainer provided on the top of the first drain pipe 4 in the evaporation barrel 1 will enhance the vortex during drainage, which is conducive to sweeping away the sewage and garbage. After the sewage and garbage are discharged, water is added through the first water inlet pipe 51 and the second water inlet pipe 81. The water passes through the first water diversion circle 52 and the second water diversion circle 82 to rinse the inner walls of the evaporation barrel 1 and the water circle 2 respectively, and the residual sewage and garbage are rinsed clean. After the flushing reaches the preset time, the first electric valve 42 and the second electric valve are closed, and water is stored in the evaporation barrel 1 and the water circle 2. After the water level reaches the standard, water addition is stopped, and the cleaning of the device is completed.
[0039] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical idea of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any changes made on the basis of the technical solution in accordance with the technical idea proposed by the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
