Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of condenser rubber ball cleaning devices, in particular to a full-automatic positioning energy-saving and water-saving condenser rubber ball cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Condensers in circulating cooling equipment face three major problems during use: algae growth, scaling, and corrosion. First, algae growth forms biofilms on the surfaces of pipes and equipment, seriously affecting heat transfer efficiency and increasing energy consumption. Second, scaling reduces the equipment's heat exchange efficiency and can easily clog the steel pipes in the condenser. This can reduce flow and affect cooling efficiency at the very least, or even lead to pipe blockage and even scrapping. Scaling also increases pipeline pressure differences and power consumption, reduces corrosion inhibitor performance, increases the risk of unplanned plant shutdowns, and can even cause some equipment to be directly scrapped. Finally, corrosion primarily manifests itself in electrochemical corrosion, where steel corrodes in the presence of oxygen in the water. When microorganisms reproduce, their secretions accumulate with organic and inorganic matter in the cooling water to form sludge, which deposits in the system and causes corrosion of the metal beneath the sediment. Furthermore, corrosion shortens the equipment's service life, increases maintenance costs and production costs, and in severe cases leads to waste of equipment and resources, and even catastrophic accidents and environmental pollution.

[0003] There are some devices in the prior art that can clean circulating cooling water pipes from algae growth, scaling, and corrosion. However, when cleaning the condenser, these existing cleaning devices have the problem that the rubber balls cannot be retracted and their position cannot be determined.

[0026] In the specific implementation of the utility model,

[0028] First, connect one end of the water inlet pipe 205 to the water source, and then connect the water outlet pipe 206 to other equipment such as the water recycling equipment;

[0029] Cleaning preparation: First, place a certain number of cleaning rubber balls 100 into the ball dispenser 202 and close all solenoid valves;

[0030] Release of cleaning rubber balls: Through the control system, the eighth solenoid valve 225 on the water inlet pipe 205 and the third solenoid valve 219 on the water outlet pipe 206 are opened to enable the flow of water in the heat exchanger 201. Subsequently, the two first solenoid valves 209 on the first pipe 207, the two sixth solenoid valves 222 on the second pipe 208, and the fifth solenoid valve 221 on the left side of the four-way joint 217 on the upper pipe 213 are opened, so that a passage is formed between the water inlet pipe 205, the first pipe 207, the upper pipe 213, the lower pipe 218, the ball dispenser 202, and the second pipe 208. Water flows from the first pipe 207, passes through the upper pipe 213, the lower pipe 218, the ball dispenser 202, the second pipe 208, and finally enters the water inlet pipe 205. In this way, the cleaning rubber balls 100 in the ball dispenser 202 are carried by the water flow into the pipe of the condenser 202.

[0031] Cleaning process: Driven by cooling water, the cleaning ball 100 rolls along the condenser pipe, using the threaded rubber shell 101 to remove dirt from the pipe wall. At the same time, the positioning sensor 103 records the position of the cleaning ball 100 in real time and sends it to the control system via wireless signals to monitor the cleaning progress and effect.
