Description
Technical Field

[0002] In the continuous development of the brewing industry, the jacket device in liquid storage and processing equipment plays a vital role. It can accurately heat or cool the material in the jacket container by passing hot or cold media such as steam, hot water, cold water, etc. into it to meet the temperature control requirements required by the process. At the same time, it can also reduce the heat exchange between the internal container and the external environment, playing a good thermal insulation effect. It not only reduces energy consumption, but also prevents high temperature, high pressure or corrosive materials in the internal container from directly contacting the outside, reducing the risk of leakage and accidents, providing certain support and reinforcement for the internal container, and enhancing the stability and reliability of the entire equipment. In addition, in the chemical, pharmaceutical and other industries, it can also create a suitable and stable temperature environment for chemical reactions, promote the reaction, and improve reaction efficiency and product quality.
[0003] Traditional jacketed devices generally utilize a single, multi-layered jacket design in series. In this design, as water flows through the series-connected jackets, the water pressure inside the jackets gradually accumulates and increases, requiring thicker walls within the internal container to withstand the increased pressure. This strength requirement significantly increases the cost of the selected materials. Furthermore, traditional jacketed devices cannot effectively control the flow path and residence time of the fluid, hindering the effective heat exchange between the fluid and the internal container, thus compromising the insulation performance of the internal medium.

[0031] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.
[0032] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The jacket device provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a shell 1 and a guide plate 2. The shell 1 is sleeved around the outer periphery of the inner cylinder 100, and an accommodating space 10 is formed inside the shell 1. The shell 1 is provided with a water inlet 11 and a water outlet 12 connected to the accommodating space 10. A plurality of guide plates 2 are provided in the accommodating space 10 from the water inlet 11 to the water outlet 12. The guide plates 2 can prevent the fluid 200 from passing through them. At least a partial opening is formed between the guide plates 2 and the inner wall of the accommodating space 10, and the fluid 200 can flow through the opening. The fluid 200 flows from the water inlet 11 to the water outlet 12 in a zigzag path under the guidance of the guide plates 2.
[0033] The jacket device proposed in the present invention guides the fluid 200 to flow in a zigzag path within the accommodating space 10 through multiple guide plates 2, increasing the resistance and distance of the fluid 200's flow, allowing the pressure in the fluid 200 to be released and balanced during the flow, reducing local water pressure peaks, and thus avoiding the gradual accumulation of water pressure within the jacket. In addition, the zigzag flow of the fluid 200, on the one hand, prolongs the residence time of the fluid 200 in the accommodating space 10, and increases the contact time and contact area between the fluid 200 and the inner wall of the shell 1 and the outer wall of the inner cylinder 100, thereby enabling more sufficient heat exchange, whether slowing heat loss when heat preservation is required or preventing heat transfer when cold preservation is required, achieving better results. On the other hand, the complex flow path helps to form a more uniform temperature field, avoiding local temperatures that are too high or too low, and maintaining a more stable and uniform temperature of the medium in the inner cylinder 100, further optimizing the thermal insulation performance.
[0034] The specific structure of the jacket device is described below.
[0035] In actual production, the inner cylinder 100 is generally higher in the vertical direction. In order to ensure that the jacket device can cover all parts of the inner cylinder 100 and ensure uniform temperature inside the inner cylinder 100, at least two shells 1 are provided, and at least two shells 1 are arranged along the height direction of the inner cylinder 100. In the two adjacent shells 1, the fluid 200 can flow from the water outlet 12 of the shell 1 located on the upper layer to the water inlet 11 of the shell 1 located on the lower layer. The multi-layered shell 1 can better adapt to the temperature requirements of different height positions in the inner cylinder 100, making the temperature distribution of the entire inner cylinder 100 more uniform in the height direction, avoiding the situation where the temperature difference between the upper and lower parts is large, and also helping to further disperse and balance the pressure to avoid excessive local pressure. During use, the fluid 200 flows into the shell 1 from top to bottom in sequence, using the gravity of the fluid 200 itself to reduce dependence on the pump, reduce energy consumption and water pressure fluctuations.
[0036] In this embodiment, two shells 1 are provided. In other embodiments, three, four or more shells 1 may be adaptively provided according to the height of the inner cylinder 100 , which is not limited here.
[0037] It is understood that a water supply pipe is connected to the water inlet 11 of the uppermost shell 1 for injecting fluid 200 into the accommodating space 10; and a flow guide pipe is connected to the water outlet 12 of the lowermost shell 1 for guiding the fluid 200 in the accommodating space 10 to a target location. Both the water supply pipe and the flow guide pipe are existing equipment and are not described in detail here.
[0038] Specifically, the jacket device further comprises a connecting pipe 13, one connecting pipe 13 is arranged between two adjacent shell bodies 1, one end of the connecting pipe 13 is connected with the water outlet 12 of the upper shell body 1, and the other end of the connecting pipe 13 is connected with the water inlet 11 of the lower shell body 1. The presence of the connecting pipe 13 ensures that the transmission of the fluid 200 between different layers of shell bodies 1 is smoother, reduces the risk of fluid 200 leakage, and improves the sealing and reliability of the entire jacket device. At the same time, the connecting pipe 13 can guide and buffer the flow of the fluid 200 to some extent, so that the pressure transmission between layers is more stable, further reducing the adverse effects of excessive local pressure on the jacket device.
[0039] Among them, the connecting pipe 13 is selected from existing pipes, and the two ends of the connecting pipe 13 are connected with the water inlet 11 and the water outlet 12 through flanges and bolts.
[0040] Regarding the specific structure of the flow guide plate 2. The flow guide plate 2 is divided into an upper partition plate 21 and a lower partition plate 22, and the upper partition plate 21 and the lower partition plate 22 are staggered along the length direction of the shell body 1. The upper partition plate 21 and the lower partition plate 22 form an opening between the bottom wall of the accommodation space 10 and the top wall of the accommodation space 10. By arranging the upper partition plate 21 and the lower partition plate 22 and staggering them, the fluid 200 flows in an S-shaped path, further extending the flow path of the fluid 200, thereby more effectively releasing and balancing the pressure and avoiding water pressure accumulation. At the same time, it further increases the contact frequency and contact area of the fluid 200 with the inner wall of the shell body 1 and the outer wall of the inner cylinder body 100, so that the heat exchange is more sufficient and uniform.
[0041] Specifically, the upper partition plate 21 and the lower partition plate 22 are arranged in parallel with each other, so that the flow rule of the fluid 200 in the jacket device is more definite and predictable, which is conducive to more accurately controlling the flow speed and pressure distribution of the fluid 200. In addition, parallel arrangement helps to maintain consistency during manufacturing and installation, reducing the difficulty of production and assembly.
[0042] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the opening can be opened in the middle of the flow guide plate 2, or between the flow guide plate 2 and the side wall of the accommodation space 10, which will not be repeated here. In addition, the shape, size, number of openings and the number of flow guide plates 2 need to be adjusted according to the actual working conditions, which are not limited here.
[0043] In this embodiment, the accommodating space 10 is annular. Due to the characteristics of the annular shape, two paths are formed between the water inlet 11 and the water outlet 12 along the extension direction of the accommodating space 10, which are divided into a long arc segment and a short arc segment. The flow path of the long arc segment is longer, and the flow path of the short arc segment is shorter. The fluid 200 can flow from the water inlet 11 through the short arc segment to the water outlet 12, or from the water inlet 11 through the long arc segment to the water outlet 12. In order to improve the thermal insulation and heat conduction efficiency of the fluid 200, a sealing plate 3 is provided on the short arc segment, and the fluid 200 cannot pass through the sealing plate 3; a plurality of guide plates 2 are provided on the long arc segment, so that the fluid 200 can only flow in the long arc segment. This can extend the flow path and heat exchange area of the fluid 200, thereby improving the efficiency and effect of the heat exchange. It is worth noting that in order to prevent the short arc segment from generating a flow blind spot, the length of the short arc segment should be less than 10 cm.
[0044] To ensure that the pressure inside and outside the housing 1 is the same, a breathing vent 15 is provided at the top of the housing 1, connecting the housing 10 to the outside world. When the temperature of the fluid 200 within the housing 1 changes, causing pressure fluctuations within the housing 10, the breathing vent 15 allows for timely release or intake of gas, preventing damage to the device caused by excessively high or low pressure. Furthermore, the breathing vent 15 allows for the removal of gases that may be generated by chemical reactions within the jacketed fluid 200, preventing gas accumulation from impacting the normal flow of the fluid 200 and heat exchange efficiency.
[0045] During long-term use, dirt, impurities or sediment may accumulate in the accommodating space 10. Therefore, a drain outlet 14 connected to the accommodating space 10 is provided at the bottom of the shell 1. A sealing cover is detachably provided on the drain outlet 14, and the sealing cover is used to open or close the drain outlet 14. The drain outlet 14 can effectively discharge pollutants, ensure that the fluid 200 in the accommodating space 10 flows smoothly, maintain good heat exchange performance, and improve the heat preservation or cooling effect. The detachable sealing cover makes the operation more flexible and convenient. When sewage needs to be discharged, the sealing cover can be easily opened to perform the sewage discharge operation; and under normal working conditions, the sealing cover can tightly close the drain outlet 14 to prevent the fluid 200 from leaking, thereby ensuring the sealing and stability of the jacket device.
[0046] It is understandable that the blocking cover and the drain outlet 14 can be connected by snap-fit connection, threaded connection or pin connection, etc., which is not limited here, and it is only necessary to ensure that the two are detachably connected.
[0047] In order to further improve the heat preservation effect of the jacket device, the jacket device further comprises a temperature sensor 4 arranged on the inner cylinder body 100, capable of monitoring the temperature of the fluid 200 in the accommodation space 10 and generating a prompt information. By arranging the temperature sensor 4, the temperature of the fluid 200 in the accommodation space 10 can be monitored in real time and accurately, so that the operator can know the working state of the jacket device in time, and make corresponding adjustment according to the temperature change of the fluid 200 in the accommodation space 10, so as to ensure that the fluid 200 always runs in the best temperature range.
[0048] Among them, the temperature sensor 4 is the existing device in the art, and the working principle and specific structure thereof will not be repeated here.
[0049] As for the material of the jacket device, the inner cylinder body 100 and / or the shell 1 is made of glass fiber reinforced plastic. In the embodiment, the inner cylinder body 100 and the shell 1 are both made of glass fiber reinforced plastic. The glass fiber reinforced plastic has excellent corrosion resistance. When processing liquid with corrosion or working in harsh chemical environment, it can effectively resist corrosion. Secondly, the glass fiber reinforced plastic has relatively light weight, which reduces the dead weight of the whole device, facilitates installation, transportation and operation, and also reduces the load requirement of the supporting structure. Furthermore, the glass fiber reinforced plastic has good insulation performance, which can reduce heat loss and improve the heat preservation or cold preservation effect of the jacket device. In addition, the glass fiber reinforced plastic has high strength and can withstand certain pressure and impact, ensuring the structural stability and safety of the jacket device during work.
[0050] In other embodiments, the inner cylinder body 100 and the shell 1 can also be made of stainless steel, titanium alloy or aluminum alloy, etc., which will not be repeated here.
[0051] The above embodiments only illustrate the basic principles and characteristics of the present application, and the present application is not limited to the above embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and modifications can be made, and these changes and modifications all fall within the scope of the present application. The scope of protection of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
