Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steam-water separators, and in particular to a steam-water separator device. Background Technology
[0002] A steam-water separator, also known as a gas-liquid separator or gas-water separator, is a widely used device in industrial production, energy conversion, heating systems, and petroleum, chemical, and food processing industries. Its main function is to effectively separate condensate or liquid components from steam or gas using physical methods such as gravity settling, centrifugal force, baffles, or cyclone separation, ensuring the quality of the steam or gas and the efficiency of the system. Inside the steam-water separator, structures such as flow guides and partitions are used to properly separate liquids and gases. Gases typically rise to the top and exit through the outlet, while liquids accumulate at the bottom and are discharged through the drain port. Steam-water separators are crucial for improving thermal energy utilization efficiency, reducing energy waste, protecting the dryness of steam-using equipment, and extending its service life.
[0003] In the current technology, during the separation of steam and water, the liquid in the steam and water mixture inevitably contains solid particles or impurities. Since there is a lack of filtration measures for these solid particles or impurities before the steam and water mixture enters the separator, these particles or impurities accumulate inside the separator and, as the liquid flows, clog the surface of the separator plate, thus blocking the flow of steam and liquid. This prevents the effective separation of the liquid components in the steam and water mixture, increases the moisture entrained in the gas, and ultimately reduces the separation efficiency of the steam and water separator. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a steam-water separator device that can effectively solve the problems in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A steam-water separator device includes a housing. An air inlet and an air outlet are fixedly connected to the top of the left and right sides of the housing, respectively. A reversing plate is fixedly connected to the top surface of the housing's interior. A cyclone reversing tube is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the reversing plate, and spiral blades are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cyclone reversing tube. A liquid separating plate is also fixedly connected to the interior of the housing, below the cyclone reversing tube. A liquid collecting filter is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the housing, and an automatic drain valve is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the liquid collecting filter. A filtering mechanism is provided at the left end of the air inlet, and the filtering mechanism includes... The filter box comprises a filter housing, a concave plate, a screw, a sealing cover, filter plates, a coarse filter screen, and a fine filter screen. The filter housing is fixedly connected to the air inlet via an air outlet pipe on the right side, and the concave plate is fixedly connected to the rear end wall of the filter housing. The screw is movably connected to the concave plate via rotating rods at both ends, and the sealing cover is movably connected to the screw via a connecting plate on the rear end wall. The two filter plates are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the sealing cover via T-shaped strips on their top surfaces, and a coarse filter screen is fixedly connected to the side wall of the left filter plate, while a fine filter screen is fixedly connected to the side wall of the right filter plate.
[0007] Preferably, an air inlet pipe and an air outlet pipe are fixedly installed on the left and right side walls of the filter box, respectively, and the air outlet pipe is fixedly installed together with the air inlet. A fixing frame is fixedly installed on the top surface of the filter box, and a rubber sealing frame is fitted on the outside of the fixing frame.
[0008] Preferably, the concave plate is fixedly installed on the rear wall of the filter box, and the top and bottom surfaces of the concave plate are respectively provided with rotating holes, and the front wall of the vertical part of the concave plate is provided with a vertical sliding opening.
[0009] Preferably, a rotating rod is fixedly installed at both the upper and lower ends of the screw, and the rotating rod is movably installed in the rotating hole, with a knob fixedly installed at the bottom end of the lower rotating rod.
[0010] Preferably, a connecting plate is fixedly installed on the rear wall of the sealing cover, and a screw hole is provided on the top surface of the connecting plate. The connecting plate is threadedly connected to the screw rod through the screw hole, and a slider is fixedly installed on the rear wall of the connecting plate and movably installed in the vertical sliding opening.
[0011] Preferably, the bottom surface of the sealing cover is provided with a set of symmetrical T-shaped grooves, the filter plate is provided with a set of symmetrical T-shaped grooves, and the top surface of the filter plate is fixedly installed with T-shaped strips and inserted into the T-shaped grooves. The side wall of the filter plate is provided with filter ports, and a coarse filter screen is fixedly installed in the filter port on the left side wall of the filter plate, and a fine filter screen is fixedly installed in the filter port on the right side wall of the filter plate.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] In this invention, the filtration mechanism works in conjunction with the steam-water separator. Before the steam-water mixture enters the housing through the air inlet, it enters the filter box through the air inlet pipe. As the steam-water mixture passes through the symmetrical filter plates inside the filter box, the coarse filter installed in the filter port on the left side of the filter plate can filter out larger particles or impurities carried in the steam-water mixture, while the fine filter installed in the filter port on the right side of the filter plate can further filter out smaller particles or impurities carried in the steam-water mixture. This effectively prevents particles or impurities carried in the steam-water mixture from entering the housing and clogging the separator plate, ensuring that the liquid components in the steam-water mixture can be effectively separated, thereby improving the separation efficiency and effect of the steam-water separator.
[0014] At the same time, turning the knob drives the screw to rotate through the rotating rod, causing the sealing cover to move upward along the screw through the screw hole on the top surface of the connecting plate. This allows the filter plate to be removed from the filter box, making it easier to disassemble the filter plate for cleaning the coarse and fine filter screens. This prevents the coarse and fine filter screens from becoming clogged after prolonged use, which would affect the filtration effect. Attached Figure Description

[0020] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0021] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a steam-water separator device includes a housing 1.

A liquid collecting filter 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the housing 1. An automatic drain valve 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the liquid collecting filter 8.
[0022] The specific operating principle of this steam-water separator is as follows:
[0023] After the soda enters the housing 1 through the air inlet 2, the liquid in the soda will be thrown onto the inner wall of the housing 1 under centrifugal force. The liquid will flow down along the spiral blades 6, and after passing through the liquid separator 7, it will fall into the liquid collection filter 8. After the liquid collection filter 8 filters the liquid, it will be discharged through the automatic drain valve 9. The gas after filtering the liquid will enter the cyclone reversing plate 5 and then be discharged through the air outlet 3, so as to achieve the purpose of soda-liquid separation.
[0024] A filter mechanism 10 is provided at the left end of the air inlet 2. The filter mechanism 10 includes a filter box 11, a concave plate 16, a screw 19, a sealing cover 22, a filter plate 27, a coarse filter 30, and a fine filter 31. The filter box 11 is fixedly connected to the air inlet 2 through the air outlet pipe 13 on the right side. The concave plate 16 is fixedly connected to the rear end wall of the filter box 11. The screw 19 is movably connected to the concave plate 16 through the rotating rods 20 at both ends. The sealing cover 22 is movably connected to the screw 19 through the connecting plate 23 on the rear end wall. The two filter plates 27 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the sealing cover 22 through the T-shaped strip 28 on the top surface. The coarse filter 30 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the left filter plate 27, and the fine filter 31 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the right filter plate 27.
[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, an air inlet pipe 12 and an air outlet pipe 13 are fixedly installed on the left and right side walls of the filter box 11, respectively. The air outlet pipe 13 is fixedly installed together with the air inlet 2. Through the air inlet pipe 12 and the air outlet pipe 13, steam and water can enter the filter box 11 for filtration and then be discharged. A fixing frame 14 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the filter box 11, and a rubber sealing frame 15 is fitted on the outside of the fixing frame 14. The rubber sealing frame 15 on the outer wall of the fixing frame 14 can work with the sealing cover plate 22 to seal the filter box 11.
[0026] like Figure 3As shown, the concave plate 16 is fixedly installed on the rear wall of the filter box 11, and the top and bottom surfaces of the concave plate 16 are respectively provided with rotating holes 17. The rotating holes 17 are used to cooperate with the rotating rod 20 to realize the rotation operation. The front wall of the vertical part of the concave plate 16 is provided with a vertical sliding opening 18. The vertical sliding opening 18 is used to cooperate with the slider 25 to realize the sliding operation.
[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, rotating rods 20 are fixedly installed at the upper and lower ends of the screw 19, and the rotating rods 20 are movably installed in the rotating hole 17. A knob 21 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the lower rotating rod 20. Rotating the knob 21 can drive the screw 19 to rotate through the rotating rod 20.
[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, a connecting plate 23 is fixedly installed on the rear wall of the sealing cover 22, and a screw hole 24 is provided on the top surface of the connecting plate 23. The connecting plate 23 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 19 through the screw hole 24. A slider 25 is fixedly installed on the rear wall of the connecting plate 23 and is movably installed in the vertical sliding opening 18. The connecting plate 23 will move upward along the screw rod 19 through the screw hole 24, and the slider 25 will slide in the vertical sliding opening 18, which can drive the sealing cover 22 to move upward on the top surface of the filter box 11, so as to facilitate the disassembly and cleaning of the coarse filter screen 30 and the fine filter screen 31.
[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, the bottom surface of the sealing cover 22 is provided with a set of symmetrical T-shaped grooves 26. The filter plate 27 is provided with a set of symmetrical T-shaped grooves 26, and a T-shaped strip 28 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the filter plate 27 and inserted into the T-shaped groove 26. The side wall of the filter plate 27 is provided with filter ports 29. A coarse filter screen 30 is fixedly installed in the filter port 29 on the left side wall of the filter plate 27, and a fine filter screen 31 is fixedly installed in the filter port 29 on the right side wall of the filter plate 27. The coarse filter screen 30 installed in the filter port 29 on the left side wall of the filter plate 27 can filter larger particles or impurities carried in the soft drink, while the fine filter screen 31 installed in the filter port 29 on the right side wall of the filter plate 27 can further filter smaller particles or impurities carried in the soft drink. The filter plate 27 can be installed or removed by inserting the T-shaped strip 28 into the T-shaped groove 26 or by pulling the T-shaped strip 28 out of the T-shaped groove 26.
[0030] The specific operating principle of the filter mechanism 10 in conjunction with the steam-water separator is as follows:
[0031] When the soda enters the filter box 11 through the air inlet pipe 12, it passes through the filter plates 27 located symmetrically on the left and right sides of the filter box 11. The coarse filter screen 30 installed in the filter port 29 on the side wall of the left filter plate 27 will filter out larger particles or impurities carried in the soda. When the soda filtered by the coarse filter screen 30 passes through the filter plate 27 on the right side, the fine filter screen 31 installed in the filter port 29 on the side wall of the right filter plate 27 will further filter out smaller particles or impurities in the soda. Finally, the filtered soda will enter through the air inlet 2 to complete the soda-water separation operation. This effectively avoids the problem of particles or impurities carried in the soda entering the shell and clogging the liquid separator 7, ensuring that the liquid components in the soda-water mixture can be effectively separated, thereby improving the separation efficiency and separation effect of the soda-water separator.
[0032] When cleaning of the coarse filter screen 30 and the fine filter screen 31 is required, the knob 21 located on the bottom surface of the concave plate 16 is turned. The knob 21 will drive the rotating rod 20 to rotate within the rotating hole 17. The rotating rod 20 will drive the screw 19 to rotate, causing the connecting plate 23 to move upward along the screw 19 through the screw hole 24 on the top surface. The slider 25 installed on the rear wall of the connecting plate 23 will slide within the vertical sliding opening 18 on the front wall of the vertical part of the concave plate 16. The connecting plate 23 will drive the sealing cover 22 to move upward from the top surface of the filter box 11. The sealing cover 22 will no longer be blocked by the rubber sealing frame 15 fitted on the outer wall of the fixing frame 14. 1. Seal the filter box 11. The sealing cover 22 will move the symmetrical filter plates 27 mounted on the bottom surface out of the filter box 11 until the knob 21 can no longer be turned. Then move the filter plates 27 forward so that the T-shaped strip 28 can be moved out of the T-shaped groove 26 opened on the bottom surface of the sealing cover 22. The filter plates 27 can then be removed to facilitate the cleaning of the coarse filter screen 30 and the fine filter screen 31. This will prevent the coarse filter screen 30 and the fine filter screen 31 from becoming clogged by the filtered particles or impurities after long-term use, which would affect the filtration effect. After the coarse filter screen 30 and the fine filter screen 31 are cleaned, the filter plates 27 can be reinstalled in the filter box 11 for use.
