[0017] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0018] Example 1
[0019] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, according to Example 1 of the present invention, there is provided an automatic fluid replenishing positive and negative pressure protector, comprising an outer tube 1 and an inner tube 2, the outer tube 1 being fixedly connected to a first air pipe 8 for connecting to the protected equipment, the inner tube 2 being fixedly connected to a second air pipe 3 for communicating with the atmosphere, the inner tube 2 being fixedly connected to the top of the outer tube 1, the lower part of the inner tube 2 being located inside the outer tube 1, the inner tube 2 being connected to the inside of the outer tube 1 through an opening at its bottom end, and a plurality of triangular notches 4 being provided at the opening at the bottom end of the inner tube 2 covering the opening.
[0020] The inner tube 2 is funnel-shaped with a larger inner diameter at the upper part and a smaller inner diameter at the lower part, and the second air pipe 3 is arranged at the top of the inner tube 2; by setting the inner tube into a funnel shape, the accommodation space inside the inner tube is increased, and liquid is prevented from spraying out from the second air pipe at the top of the inner tube.
[0021] A circular plate 5 for preventing liquid from splashing is fixedly connected to the interior of the inner tube 2 via a bracket.
[0022] Example 2
[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, Example 2 also provides a positive and negative pressure protector for automatic fluid replenishment. The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that the outer tube 1 is connected to the fluid replenishment device 7 through the fluid replenishment tube 6, and the fluid replenishment tube 6 is equipped with a one-way valve 9 that only allows liquid to enter the outer tube 1 from the fluid replenishment device 7; the interface between the fluid replenishment tube 6 and the outer tube 1 is located below the bottom opening of the inner tube 2.
[0024] The rehydration device 7 includes a rehydration tank 701, to which a first water supply pipe 702 is fixedly connected. A float switch 703 is installed on the first water supply pipe 702, which is controlled to open and close according to the change of the liquid level in the rehydration tank 701; the float switch 703 is used to control the constancy of the liquid level in the rehydration tank 701.
[0025] The liquid replenishing tank 701 is fixedly connected to a second water supply pipe 704 , on which a manual switch 705 is installed; the second water supply pipe serves as a backup and is used after the first water supply pipe.
[0026] Working principle of positive and negative pressure protector
[0027] When the above-mentioned embodiment 1 and embodiment 2 are used, a certain amount of liquid is first added into the outer cylinder 1 as a liquid seal, and the liquid level of the liquid seal must exceed the opening at the bottom end of the inner cylinder 2.
[0028] When the gas level inside the protected equipment is too high, the gas enters the outer tube 1 from the protected equipment, squeezing the liquid in the outer tube 1 into the inner tube 1. When the liquid level in the outer tube 1 drops below the opening at the bottom end of the inner tube 2, the gas enters the inner tube 2 from the outer tube 1 and is discharged into the atmosphere from the second air pipe 2, thereby maintaining the stability of the gas pressure inside the protected equipment and avoiding the danger of excessive gas pressure inside the protected equipment.
[0029] When the gas level inside the protected equipment is too low, the gas enters the protected equipment from the outer tube 1, and the liquid in the inner tube 2 is sucked into the outer tube 1. When the liquid level drops below the opening at the bottom end of the inner tube 2, the outside gas enters the outer tube 1 through the inner tube 2, and then enters the protected equipment, thereby maintaining the stability of the gas pressure inside the protected equipment and avoiding the danger of low gas pressure in the protected equipment.
[0030] The principle of triangular notch
[0031] In the above-mentioned embodiments 1 and 2, by setting the triangular notch 4, when air is taken in or out, as the liquid seal level gradually decreases, the area of the notch exposed to the liquid surface gradually increases, and the air intake or exhaust port also gradually increases, making the air intake or exhaust process more stable; avoiding a large amount of air intake or exhaust in an instant, which causes excessive pressure changes in the protected equipment and leads to dangerous situations.
[0032] Principle of fluid replacement device
[0033] The liquid sealed in the positive and negative pressure protector will become less and less due to natural evaporation and being carried out by gas. The liquid replenishing device 7 is used for automatic liquid replenishment to keep the amount of liquid in the positive and negative pressure protector constant.
[0034] There are two types of liquid conditions in the positive and negative pressure protectors: 1. Stable liquid level condition; 2. Fluctuating liquid level condition.
[0035] The rehydration device only rehydrates when the liquid level in the positive and negative pressure protector is stable. The rehydration process is as follows.
[0036] The liquid level in the fluid replenishment tank 701 remains constant, and the pressure on the side of the one-way valve 9 facing the fluid replenishment tank 701 remains constant. In the initial state and when the liquid level is stable, the pressure on the side of the one-way valve 9 facing the outer tube 1 is the same as the pressure on the side facing the fluid replenishment tank 701. When the liquid in the positive and negative pressure protector decreases, the pressure on the side of the one-way valve 9 facing the outer tube 1 is less than the pressure on the side of the one-way valve 9 facing the fluid replenishment tank 701. The one-way valve 9 opens, and the liquid enters the outer tube 1 for fluid replenishment.
[0037] When the liquid level in the positive and negative pressure protector fluctuates, the rehydration device does not replenish liquid, as shown below.
[0038] When the gas level inside the protected equipment is too high, the gas enters the outer tube 1 from the protected equipment, squeezing the liquid in the outer tube 1 into the inner tube 1. When the liquid level in the outer tube 1 drops below the opening at the bottom end of the inner tube 2, the pressure on the side of the one-way valve facing the outer tube 1 is equal to the pressure of the liquid in the outer tube 1 plus the pressure of the gas. The pressure on the side of the one-way valve facing the outer tube 1 is greater than that on the side facing the fluid infusion device 7, and the liquid cannot enter the outer tube from the fluid infusion device.
[0039] When the gas level inside the protected equipment is too low, the gas enters the protected equipment from the outer tube 1, and the liquid in the inner tube 2 is sucked into the outer tube 1. When the liquid level drops below the opening at the bottom end of the inner tube 2, the liquid level in the outer tube is higher, and the pressure on the side of the one-way valve facing the outer tube 1 is equal to the pressure of the liquid in the outer tube. The pressure on the side of the one-way valve facing the outer tube 1 is greater than that on the side facing the fluid replenishing device 7, and the liquid cannot enter the outer tube from the fluid replenishing device.
[0040] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
