Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gaskets, and more particularly to a gasket for a plate heat exchanger. Background Art
[0002] A plate heat exchanger is a highly efficient heat exchanger constructed from a series of stacked metal sheets with a specific corrugated shape. Its operating principle is based on the intermittent heat transfer between hot and cold media through the regularly arranged corrugated channels on the heat exchange plates. Thin rectangular fluid channels are formed between the individual heat exchange plates. The hot and cold media enter these narrow, winding channels through holes in the four corners of the plates. The corrugations on the plates increase the rigidity of the plates and also the turbulence of the fluid. The two media flow in parallel or countercurrent between the plates, exchanging heat through the intermediate interlayer plates.
[0003] During the use of the existing gasket, the gasket groove is sealed by a rubber ring that cooperates with the gasket groove, and then the effective sealing of the heat exchanger is ensured by squeezing between the equipment. Since the gasket is soft, the size of the gasket often needs to be slightly larger than the size of the gasket groove to ensure the sealing effect. However, since the size of the gasket is slightly larger than the size of the gasket groove, it is not convenient to place the gasket in the gasket groove, and when the existing gasket is replaced, its shape has been deformed under the action of long-term pressure, making it inconvenient to remove the gasket.
