[0034] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] The utility model provides a heat pipe type low temperature economizer heat exchange equipment, such as Figures 1 to 6 shown.
[0036] Example 1:
[0037] A heat pipe type low-temperature economizer heat exchanger includes a base plate 1. The four corners of the base plate 1 are provided with mounting holes. The base plate 1 can be installed above the flue through the mounting holes. A water tank 2 is also installed on the upper side of the base plate 1. A plurality of heat pipes 5 are also fixedly connected to the base plate 1. The heat dissipation end of the heat pipe 5 passes through the base plate 1 and the water tank 2 and extends to the interior of the water tank 2. The heat absorption end of the heat pipe 5 passes through the base plate 1 and extends to the interior of the flue. When exhausting smoke inside the flue, the heat of the flue gas will be absorbed by the heat absorption end of the heat pipe 5, and the absorbed heat will be dissipated to the water tank 2 by the heat dissipation end of the heat pipe 5. The specific structure and working principle of the heat pipe 5 are existing technologies and are now widely used, so they will not be elaborated in this utility model.
[0038] A water inlet pipe 3 is provided at the lower corner of one side of the water tank 2, and a water outlet pipe 4 is provided at the upper corner of the other side, and the connecting line between the water inlet pipe 3 and the water outlet pipe 4 coincides with the center point of the water tank 2, so that the water entering the water tank 2 through the water inlet pipe 3 can flow through the multiple heat pipes 5 more fully and then be discharged through the water outlet pipe 4. The multiple heat pipes 5 are distributed in multiple rows, and the multiple heat pipes 5 in two adjacent rows are staggered, so that the heat pipes 5 can better contact with the water inside the water tank 2, which is beneficial to heat transfer.
[0039] Example 2:
[0040] On the basis of Example 1, in order to clean the scale attached to the outer side of one end of the heat pipe 5 located inside the water tank 2 to prevent the scale from reducing the efficiency of heat transfer, a first cleaning component is provided inside the water tank 2. The first cleaning component includes:
[0041] The cleaning plate 6 is slidably installed inside the water tank 2 and is simultaneously sleeved on the outside of multiple heat pipes 5. A first scraper ring 7 is sleeved on the outside of each heat pipe 5. The inner ring surface of the first scraper ring 7 is close to the heat pipe 5, and the upper end of the outer ring surface is tilted toward the axial direction of the corresponding heat pipe 5. The first scraper ring 7 is fixedly connected to the upper side surface of the cleaning plate 6. During the upward sliding process of the cleaning plate 6, the first scraper ring 7 can scrape off the scale attached to the heat pipe 5. Handles are provided at both ends of the upper side surface of the cleaning plate 6, and the staff can pull the cleaning plate 6 by the handles.
[0042] The cleaning plate 6 is also provided with a plurality of leakage holes. When the cleaning plate 6 moves upward, the scale scraped off by the first scraper ring 7 can be driven to move upward, but it will not affect the water inside the water tank 2. The scale can still be cleaned during use. The upper side wall of the water tank 2 is designed to be detachable. When the scale needs to be cleaned, the upper side wall of the water tank 2 can be removed and the cleaning plate 6 can be pulled by the handle.
[0043] Example 3:
[0044] On the basis of Example 1, in order to clean the dust deposited on the outer side of the end of the heat pipe 5 located below the substrate 1 to prevent the dust from reducing the efficiency of heat transfer, a second cleaning component is provided inside the substrate 1. The second cleaning component includes:
[0045] The cleaning frame 8 is located below the substrate 1 and is simultaneously sleeved on the outer sides of multiple heat pipes 5. A second scraper ring 9 is sleeved on the outer side of each heat pipe 5. The second scraper ring 9 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the cleaning frame 8. The inner ring surface of the second scraper ring 9 is close to the heat pipe 5, and the lower end of the outer ring surface of the second scraper ring 9 is tilted toward the axial direction of the corresponding heat pipe 5. During the downward movement of the cleaning frame 8, the second scraper ring 9 can clean the accumulated dust attached to the outer surface of the heat pipe 5.
[0046] Both ends of the upper side of the cleaning frame 8 are fixedly connected with a screw 10. The upper end of the screw 10 passes through the base plate 1 and extends to the top of the base plate 1. The screw 10 is threadedly connected to a driven gear 11 rotatably mounted on the upper side of the base plate 1. The driven gear 11 is meshed with a driving gear mounted on a motor shaft of a motor 12. The motor 12 is mounted on the side wall of the water tank 2. The rotation of the motor shaft of the motor 12 can drive the driven gear 11 to rotate through the driving gear, so that the lifting and lowering of the cleaning frame 8 can be controlled by the screw 10.
[0047] Furthermore, in order to prevent the scraped ash from falling inside the flue, causing the flue to be blocked and affecting the discharge of flue gas, the cleaning frame 8 and the screw 10 are set to a hollow structure, and the cleaning frame 8 and the screw 10 are connected, and the screw 10 is connected to the external negative pressure suction equipment. A plurality of suction holes are provided on the outer periphery of the second scraper ring 9 and on the lower side of the cleaning frame 8. When cleaning the ash, the external negative pressure suction equipment is started, and the cleaned ash can be drawn out through the suction holes, the cleaning frame 8 and the screw 10, so as to prevent the ash from falling inside the flue and affecting the exhaust of smoke. The ash can still be cleaned during use without affecting the use.
[0048] 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.
