Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of reboilers, in particular to a pure phthalic anhydride tower reboiler. Background Art

[0002] Phthalic anhydride, also known as phthalic anhydride (abbreviated as PA), appears as a white, scaly solid or powder, or white, needle-shaped crystals with a slight odor. It sublimes easily and is slightly soluble in cold water, readily soluble in hot water and hydrolyzed to phthalic acid. It is soluble in ethanol, benzene, and pyridine, and slightly soluble in ether. The production of phthalic anhydride requires a phthalic anhydride column, of which the reboiler is a key component. As the name suggests, the reboiler vaporizes the liquid again. Its structure is similar to that of a condenser, except that one is used to reduce temperature, while the reboiler heats and vaporizes. The material expands and even vaporizes due to the heat in the reboiler, reducing its density. This causes the material to leave the vaporization chamber and smoothly return to the column. The gas and liquid phases return to the column, with the gas phase rising through the trays while the liquid phase falls to the bottom. Due to the static pressure difference, the liquid level at the bottom of the column is continuously replenished by the evaporated portion.

[0003] However, when the reboiler is in use, if solid matter such as scale condenses on the inner wall, it is easy to adhere to the tube wall, causing the internal volume of the reboiler to decrease, affecting normal use, and easily corroding the inner wall of the pipe, making cleaning more inconvenient.

In addition, the embodiments of the present invention may repeat reference numbers and / or reference letters in different examples. Such repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.

[0028] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, the following is a further detailed description of a pure phthalic anhydride column reboiler of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a pure phthalic anhydride column reboiler of the present invention comprises a reboiler body 100 , and a cleaning unit 200 is movably installed in the inner cavity of the reboiler body 100 .

[0030] The reboiler body 100 includes a mounting pipe 110 installed in the middle of the reboiler body 100 and a reciprocating screw 120 movably installed at the upper end of the mounting pipe 110 . The reciprocating screw 120 is installed through the cleaning unit 200 .

[0031] The cleaning unit 200 includes a movable frame 210 slidably mounted in the inner cavity of the reboiler body 100 and a cleaning frame 220 rotatably mounted on one side of the movable frame 210 . One side of the cleaning frame 220 is movably mounted inside the movable frame 210 and is driven by a driving unit 230 inside the movable frame 210 .

[0032] The cleaning frame 220 includes a support ring 221 and a cleaning brush 222 fixedly mounted on the outside of the support ring 221 . The cleaning brush 222 is mounted in contact with the inner wall of the mounting tube 110 .

[0033] Both ends of the reciprocating screw rod 120 are installed in the limiting groove 130 set at the upper end of the mounting tube 110 through bearings. One end of the reciprocating screw rod 120 is connected to the output end of the driving motor. The upper end of the movable frame 210 is fixedly installed with a transmission head 211. The reciprocating screw rod 120 is arranged through the transmission head 211 and is installed to match each other. The limiting groove 130 matches the size of the transmission head 211.

[0034] After the reboiler body 100 has been used for a period of time, the driving device can be started to drive the reciprocating screw 120 to rotate. The transmission head 211 at the upper end of the movable frame 210 and the reciprocating screw 120 drive the movable frame 210 to move to one side, pushing the cleaning frame 220 on one side to clean the inner wall of the installation pipe 110, so as to prevent the condensation of scale and other substances on the inner wall of the installation pipe 110 from causing the volume of the reboiler body 100 to decrease, thereby clogging the pipeline, etc.

[0035] A driving gear ring 223 is fixedly installed on one side of the support ring 221. The driving gear ring 223 is rotatably installed inside the mobile frame 210 and is driven to rotate by the driving unit 230. An inclined scraper 224 is fixedly installed on the outside of the support ring 221. The inclined scrapers 224 are arranged in multiple groups and are evenly distributed on the outer ring surface of the support ring 221. The outer edge of the inclined scraper 224 is arranged in contact with the inner wall of the mounting tube 110.

[0036] The driving unit 230 includes a driving gear 231 meshedly installed on one side of the driving gear ring 223 and a first bevel gear 232 fixedly installed on one side of the driving gear 231. The connection between the driving gear 231 and the first bevel gear 232 is fixed by a bearing. A second bevel gear 233 is meshedly installed on one side of the first bevel gear 232. One side of the first bevel gear 232 is fixedly connected to a rotating gear 234 installed on the outside of the mobile frame 210. The rotating gear 234 meshes with the fixed racks 140 fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the inner wall of the mounting tube 110 for transmission.

[0037] When the movable frame 210 moves, the rotating gear 234 engages with the fixed rack 140 for transmission, and the rotating gear 234 rotates, and then the second bevel gear 233 fixedly installed on one side drives the first bevel gear 232 on one side to rotate, and the driving gear ring 223 is driven to rotate through the driving gear 231. When moving for cleaning, the cleaning brush 222 brushes the inner wall to improve the cleaning effect, and inclined scrapers 224 are evenly arranged on the upper end of the support ring 221 to brush away dirt on the inner wall that is inconvenient to brush, making the cleaning more thorough.

[0038] The working principle of the pure phthalic anhydride tower reboiler is as follows: after the reboiler body 100 has been used for a period of time, the driving device can be started to drive the reciprocating screw 120 to rotate, and the transmission head 211 at the upper end of the movable frame 210 and the reciprocating screw 120 drive the movable frame 210 to move to one side, pushing the cleaning frame 220 on one side to clean the inner wall of the installation pipe 110, so as to prevent the inner wall of the installation pipe 110 from being condensed due to scale and other substances, resulting in the volume of the reboiler body 100 becoming smaller and the pipeline being blocked. When the cleaning brush 222 moves, it engages with the fixed rack 140 for transmission. The rotating gear 234 rotates, and then the second bevel gear 233 fixed on one side drives the first bevel gear 232 on one side to rotate, and the driving gear ring 223 is driven to rotate through the driving gear 231. When the cleaning brush 222 moves to clean, it brushes the inner wall to improve the cleaning effect. In addition, inclined scrapers 224 are evenly arranged on the upper end of the support ring 221 to brush away dirt on the inner wall that is inconvenient to brush, so that the cleaning is more thorough.

[0039] It is understood that the present invention is described by way of certain embodiments, and those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes or equivalent substitutions may be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Furthermore, under the guidance of the present invention, these features and embodiments may be modified to suit specific circumstances and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are intended to be protected by the present invention.
