[0031] 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 some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and in no way serves as any limitation on the present invention and its application or use. 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.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a portable process water cooler, including a cooling box 1, a cooling part 6 and a portable handle 3. The upper part of the cooling box 1 has a water inlet, the bottom of the cooling box 1 has a water outlet, and the cooling box 1 has a cooling cavity. The water inlet and the water outlet are both connected to the cooling cavity. The water inlet is used to input cooling water into the cooling cavity, and the water outlet is used to output the cooling water in the cooling cavity. The cooling part 6 is arranged in the cooling cavity. The cooling part 6 includes a plurality of cooling groups 7 connected in series, each cooling group 7 includes a cooling pipe 8, and at least one cooling group 7 includes at least two cooling pipes 8 in parallel. The cooling part 6 is used to input process water to be cooled so as to cool the process water by cooling water. The portable handle 3 is arranged on the top of the cooling box 1.

[0033] In this embodiment, the portable process water cooler realizes heat exchange between cooling water and process water through the setting of the cooling chamber and the cooling part 6, and does not need to be powered on. Cooling water is introduced through the water inlet and the cooled cooling water is discharged through the water outlet to maintain the flow of cooling water in the system, thereby achieving a continuous cooling effect. The cooling part 6 includes a plurality of cooling groups 7 in series, and each cooling group 7 includes a cooling pipe 8. The series design helps to gradually reduce the temperature of the process water, while the design of the parallel cooling pipe 8 provides multiple heat exchange channels, improves the cooling efficiency, and reduces the risk of local overheating. The design of the portable process water cooler enables the cooling water to be continuously circulated in the system, which not only improves the cooling efficiency, but also avoids the waste of cooling water. In addition, a portable handle 3 is provided on the top of the cooling box 1, so that the operator can easily lift and move the cooler. The design of the portable handle 3 makes the equipment more mobile, which is convenient for on-site use or changing the work location.

[0034] Furthermore, the cooling portion 6 also includes a plurality of connecting pipes, each of which is provided with a joint. Two adjacent cooling groups 7 are connected via the connecting pipes, and a plurality of cooling pipes 8 in the same cooling group 7 are connected in parallel via the connecting pipes.

[0035] In this embodiment, adjacent cooling groups 7 are connected by pipes so that cooling water can flow smoothly between multiple cooling groups 7. This not only enhances the circulation of cooling water in the system, but also avoids the uneven water flow or poor circulation that may occur between cooling groups 7, thereby improving the overall cooling efficiency. Multiple cooling pipes 8 in the same cooling group 7 are connected in parallel through pipes, so that multiple cooling pipes 8 can share the flow of cooling water, reducing the problem of excessive or slow flow in local pipelines, so that the flow rate of cooling water will not be too fast or too slow to cause insufficient heat exchange, ensuring uniform water flow distribution and improving the heat exchange efficiency of each cooling pipe 8. Moreover, by connecting multiple cooling pipes 8 in parallel, if a cooling pipe 8 is blocked or damaged, the other parallel cooling pipes 8 can continue to work, thereby ensuring that the cooling system will not completely fail in the event of a local failure.

[0036] The rational layout of the pipes makes the overall design of the cooler more compact and space-saving. The pipes can efficiently connect the cooling group 7 and the cooling pipes 8, making the layout of the entire cooling system more reasonable. At the same time, it reduces the space requirements during installation and facilitates assembly and use in limited spaces. The pipe design also helps to mitigate the impact of the water flow, avoiding excessive pressure fluctuations when the water flows rapidly from one cooling pipe 8 to another. Through the smooth water flow conversion, the noise within the system and the negative effects of unstable water flow are reduced.

[0037] The connecting pipe and the joint are welded, and the joint is sealed and connected to the corresponding cooling pipe 8 via a sealing gasket.

[0038] In this embodiment, welding ensures a secure, durable connection between the pipe and the connector. The welded joint can withstand higher pressures, reducing the risk of water leakage and ensuring that the pipe and connector will not loosen or leak during extended use. By adding a sealing gasket to the joint, it creates a tight contact with the surface of the cooling pipe 8, forming a reliable seal that effectively prevents cooling water leakage and the ingress of outside air. Furthermore, the combined use of welding and the sealing gasket further reduces the possibility of cooling water leakage.

[0039] Welded connections are generally more durable than other connection methods. In high-temperature, high-pressure cooling environments, welded connections can prevent loosening or separation due to temperature changes, pressure fluctuations, or vibration. Welded joints are generally more fatigue-resistant and can withstand the vibration and impact that may occur during cooling water flow.

[0040] Specifically, the cooling tube 8 is spiral-shaped and is a copper tube.

[0041] In this embodiment, the spiral cooling tube 8 design increases the contact area between the cooling water and the process water, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency. Compared to straight tubes, spiral tubes allow the cooling water to remain in the tube for a longer time, thereby increasing heat transfer. The water flow path within the spiral tube is longer, allowing for greater contact with the tube wall, enhancing heat exchange, and thus more efficiently removing heat from the process water, improving the cooling effect. Furthermore, the spiral tube's structure makes it more resistant to bending and torsion than a straight tube. During use, the spiral tube can better withstand stress caused by external pressure or vibration without deformation, thereby extending the service life of the cooling tube 8. The copper material used in the cooling tube 8 has excellent corrosion resistance. Especially when processing cooling water with certain chemical components, the copper tube can effectively resist the corrosive effects of the chemicals in the water, reducing pipe aging or leakage caused by corrosion. Compared to other metal materials, copper tubes can maintain better durability during long-term operation. Furthermore, copper has far superior thermal conductivity to most other metal materials, effectively transferring heat removed by the cooling water back to the cooling water, accelerating the cooling effect.

[0042] Furthermore, the portable process water cooler also includes an input pipe 9 and an output pipe 10. The input pipe 9 is connected to the inlet end of the cooling part 6, and the input pipe 9 is used to input external process water into the cooling part 6. The output pipe 10 is connected to the outlet end of the cooling part 6, and the output pipe 10 is used to output the process water in the cooling part 6.

[0043] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the input pipe 9 and the output pipe 10 ensures that process water can smoothly enter and exit the cooling section 6, completing the cooling process. The input pipe 9 introduces external process water into the cooler, while the output pipe 10 discharges the cooled process water, completing the cooling cycle. The input pipe 9 provides a stable supply of process water, while the output pipe 10 discharges the cooled process water. The input pipe 9 and the output pipe 10 enable the process water to maintain a stable flow, avoiding poor cooling effects caused by poor water flow or insufficient flow. Furthermore, the design of the input pipe 9 and the output pipe 10 allows the flow rate and pressure of the process water to be adjusted as needed. The flow rate of process water flowing into the cooling section 6 can be controlled, thereby affecting the cooling efficiency and time.

[0044] The design of the input pipe 9 and the output pipe 10 makes it easier to clean and maintain. Since the process water is input and output through these pipes, the operator can easily check, clean or replace these pipes to avoid problems such as pipe blockage and scaling that affect the cooling effect.

[0045] The input pipe 9 is detachably connected to the cooling inlet 2 of the cooling portion 6 , and the output pipe 10 is detachably connected to the cooling outlet 5 of the cooling portion 6 .

[0046] In this embodiment, the input pipe 9 and the output pipe 10 are connected to the cooling unit 6 via a detachable connection, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly in different environments and applications, reducing installation time and improving work efficiency. The detachable connection of the cooler's input pipe 9 and output pipe 10 allows the entire device to be disassembled into multiple parts when not in use or moving, and then reassembled at the required location, thus avoiding excessive space usage. Furthermore, in the event of a fault, the cooler piping can be quickly disconnected by removing the input pipe 9 and output pipe 10, which helps to quickly locate the problem and prevent the fault from spreading or affecting other parts.

[0047] The detachable connection allows the inlet and outlet pipes 9 and 10 to be easily removed and cleaned. When process water may contain impurities, sediment, or contaminants, regular cleaning of the inlet and outlet pipes 9 and 10 prevents pipe blockage and ensures effective cooling. Removing the pipes allows users to more thoroughly clean any dirt or residue within them, ensuring efficient operation of the cooling system. The detachable connection design allows users to replace individual pipes or fittings in the event of a cooler failure or maintenance without disassembling the entire cooler system. This reduces maintenance costs and workload, and minimizes system downtime.

[0048] Specifically, the portable process water cooler further comprises a detachable upper plug and a lower plug, wherein the upper plug is used to block the water inlet, and the lower plug is used to block the water outlet.

[0049] In this embodiment, when the cooler is not in use, the water inlet and outlet are blocked by the upper and lower plugs, which can effectively prevent the cooling water from leaking out or entering unwanted substances, ensuring that no cooling water or process water flows out or flows into the equipment. This helps to keep the pipes dry and clean, and prevents sewage or impurities from entering the system, thereby ensuring that the internal environment of the cooler remains pollution-free. When the cooler needs to be moved, blocking the water inlet and outlet can prevent moisture and liquid from leaking, reducing external contamination of the equipment. The closed end makes the cooler easier to store, avoiding leaking liquid from contaminating the storage environment. At the same time, the blocking of the inlet and outlet ensures that the equipment is in a sealed and dry state, avoiding water stains that corrode the equipment or malfunctions caused by long-term water accumulation.

[0050] The water inlet and outlet are sealed with plugs when the system is shut down or in storage, preventing water from flowing into or out of the cooler due to misoperation when not in use. The presence of the plugs reminds operators to check whether the system is properly connected and to ensure that water flow control is safe before re-commissioning.

[0051] Furthermore, the portable process water cooler further includes a first temperature sensor, which is installed on the cooling part 6 and is used to detect the temperature of the process water output by the cooling part 6 .

[0052] In this embodiment, the first temperature sensor can continuously monitor and feedback the temperature of the process water output by the cooling unit 6, providing real-time temperature data to the operator, so that the operating status of the cooling system can be understood in real time and whether the cooling effect meets the requirements can be judged. The temperature data can help the operator make necessary adjustments to ensure the efficiency of the cooling process.

[0053] The portable process water cooler further includes a second temperature sensor 4 , which is installed in the cooling box 1 . The second temperature sensor 4 is used to detect the temperature of the cooling water in the cooling box 1 .

[0054] In this embodiment, the second temperature sensor 4 is used to detect the cooling water temperature within the cooling box 1. This is crucial for maintaining the cooling performance of the cooler. The cooling water temperature directly affects the cooling effect. If the cooling water temperature is too high, the cooling effect may be affected, and the cooling efficiency may be reduced. Through the second temperature sensor 4, the system can monitor the cooling water temperature in real time, ensuring that the cooling water is always within the appropriate temperature range to ensure that the process water is effectively cooled.

[0055] Specifically, the cooling box 1 is in a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and an inner wall or an outer wall of the cooling box 1 is provided with a heat insulation layer.

[0056] In this embodiment, providing an insulation layer on the inner or outer wall of the cooling box 1 effectively prevents the impact of external temperature fluctuations on the cooling water, maintaining the stability of the cooling water temperature. Fluctuations in external temperature may affect the cooling water temperature, especially in environments with large temperature differences. The insulation layer effectively isolates the external temperature interference and maintains the cooling water within the set optimal temperature range.

[0057] The portable process water cooler provided in this application has a compact overall design and is easy to operate. The cooling efficiency is improved by the multiple groups of cooling tubes 8 and the parallel design of the cooling unit 6. The insulation layer design of the cooling box 1 reduces the temperature loss of the cooling water. The provision of a portable handle 3 makes the cooler easy to carry and suitable for various occasions requiring temporary cooling of process water. In addition, the detachable input pipe 9 and output pipe 10, as well as the detachable upper and lower plugs, facilitate the cleaning and maintenance of the cooler, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce maintenance costs. This cooler is particularly suitable for situations requiring fast, efficient, and flexible cooling of process water, and can effectively improve production efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and reduce production costs.
