[0023] This utility model discloses a flame arrester that achieves self-cleaning by utilizing gas turbulence. The following describes one embodiment of this utility model in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, a flame arrester that utilizes gas turbulence to achieve self-cleaning includes a first half-shell 1, a second half-shell 2, and a flame arresting assembly. Both the openings on the first half-shell 1 and the second half-shell 2 have flanges. (Combined with...) Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the fire-arresting component is located between the first half-shell 1 and the second half-shell 2, and the first half-shell 1 and the second half-shell 2 are fixedly connected by bolts.
[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, the flame arrestor assembly includes a core shell 3, a core cover 4, a connecting rod 6, turbulent fan blades, and several flame arrestor discs 5. The core shell 3 is cylindrical, with openings on both sides fixedly connected to the matching core cover 4 to form a receiving cavity, within which the flame arrestor discs 5 are disposed. The core cover 4 has several vent holes for gas flow. The connecting rod 6 passes through the two core covers 4 and the flame arrestor discs 5, and a sleeve 7 is provided between the connecting rod 6 and the flame arrestor discs 5. The sleeve 7 is fitted onto the connecting rod 6, and the flame arrestor discs 5 are fitted onto the sleeve 7. A boss is provided on one side of the connecting rod 6, and a thread is provided at the end of the other side. A nut is threaded onto the connecting rod 6, and the boss and nut cooperate to fasten the core cover 4 and the flame arrestor discs 5.
[0026] The bearing 8 is interference-fitted with one end of the connecting rod 6 adjacent to the boss and contacts the boss. In this embodiment, the bearing 8 is a damping bearing used to limit the rotation speed and prevent excessive rotation speed. The turbulent fan blade is located inside the first half-shell 1. The turbulent fan blade includes a bearing sleeve 9 and several blades 10. The bearing sleeve 9 is sleeved on the bearing 8, and the several blades 10 are arranged outside the bearing sleeve 9 and fixedly connected to the bearing sleeve 9 by a fixing rod.
[0027] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, each blade 10 is plate-shaped with an approximately teardrop-shaped cross-section. The cross-section of the blade 10 is symmetrical, and the axis of symmetry of the cross-section and the axis of the connecting rod 6 are at an angle to each other on the same plane. The blade 10 includes a large end and a small end, with the small end located on one side adjacent to the flame arrestor plate 5. The turbulent fan blades can rotate relative to the flame arrestor plate 5 under the action of airflow.
[0028] The first half-shell 1 is the inlet side, and the second half-shell 2 is the outlet side. After installation with the pipeline, the airflow from the pipeline first enters the first half-shell 1. The airflow drives the turbulent fan blades to rotate. The surface of the blades 10 has a certain roughness, which allows the airflow to contact the blades 10 and generate friction, causing the fluid boundary layer velocity to drop rapidly to zero, thereby generating boundary separation and forming turbulence. Due to the instability of the generated turbulent gas, after passing through several flame arrestor plates 5, it can remove impurities attached to the gaps in the flame arrestor plates 5, ensuring the ventilation performance of the flame arrester and thus achieving a self-cleaning function.
[0029] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
