[0022] The specific implementation of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figs. 1-3 As shown, the two-in-one cold trap for reflow furnace of this embodiment is suitable for reflow furnace, comprising a shell 1, a gas inlet 2 and a gas outlet 3 on the shell 1. The interior of the shell 1 is divided into an air inlet chamber and a filter chamber along the direction of air flow. The filter chamber is provided with a filter element 103, and the air inlet chamber is provided with a waste outlet 4.

[0024] The filter element 103 is installed on the wall surface of the housing 1 where air is discharged, and a flow space for air flow is reserved around the filter element 103 .

[0025] The filter element 103 includes a bottom wall and side walls. The flow path of the airflow to be processed flows through the bottom wall of the filter element 103 and the side walls of the filter element 103 in sequence and is output through the filter element 103.

[0026] The gas inlet 2 is located on the wall of the air inlet cavity, and the output end of the gas inlet 2 points to the bottom wall of the filter element 103 .

[0027] An observation window 5 is also provided on the wall of the air inlet cavity, and the vertical height of the observation window 5 is lower than the vertical height of the gas inlet 2 .

[0028] The waste outlet 4 is located at the bottom of the air inlet cavity and is in a closed state during the filtration process.

[0029] A cooling medium space 101 is formed on the circumference of the cold trap housing 1 , and the axial height of the cooling medium space 101 is smaller than the axial heights of the air inlet cavity and the filter cavity.

[0030] The gas outlet 3 , the filter element 103 , and the housing 1 are coaxially arranged.

[0031] The specific structure and working process of the utility model are as follows:

[0032] like Figs. 1-3 The figure shows the overall structure of the cold trap. Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 The cold trap shell 1 is cylindrical, and the interior of the shell 1 is a gas space 102. The top of the gas space 102 is connected to a gas outlet 3, and the gas outlet 3 is connected to a filter element 103 built into the gas space 102. In this way, the gas space 102 is divided into a filter chamber with a filter element 103 in the upper half and an air inlet chamber in the lower half.

[0033] A cooling medium space 101 is provided around the gas space 102. The axial height of the gas space 102 is greater than that of the cooling medium space 101, i.e., the portion containing the filter element 103 is higher than the cooling medium space 101. This provides installation space for the filter element 103 and reduces the heat exchange area of ​​the refrigerant.

[0034] In order to improve the filtering efficiency, the gas inlet 2 is arranged below the filter element 103, on the side wall of the air inlet cavity, and the outlet direction of the gas inlet 2 points to the bottom wall of the filter element 103. The untreated gas that has not been completely filtered by the bottom wall of the filter element 103 continues to contact the side wall of the filter element 103 upward under the influence of the airflow direction and is filtered by the side wall of the filter element 103.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, sufficient spacing is reserved between the filter element 103 and the inner wall of the shell 1. When the airflow flows upward along the side wall of the filter element 103 to the top wall of the shell 1, there is ample space for the airflow to turn and flow along the inner wall of the shell 1 to the bottom wall near the filter element 103, forming a local backflow, ensuring that the airflow inside the cold trap is not prone to turbulence.

[0036] The flux filtered by the filter element is directly discharged through the drain valve at the bottom.

[0037] The above description is an explanation of the utility model, not a limitation of the utility model. The scope of the utility model is defined by the claims. Any form of modification can be made within the scope of protection of the utility model.
