[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
[0020] The utility model aims at providing a device for automatically conveying water by steam to solve the problems in the prior art, which has the advantages of simple structure, convenient use and effective separation of condensed water in steam.
[0021] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the utility model more obvious and easy to understand, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0022] The utility model provides a device for automatically conveying water by steam, like Figure 1As shown, including: cylinder 1, steam inlet pipe 2, steam outlet pipe 3, water body 4 and drainage device, the side wall of the cylinder 1 is provided with an inlet, the top of the cylinder 1 is provided with an outlet, the cylinder 1 is used to be detachably connected above the sewer cover; the steam inlet pipe 2 is communicated with the steam pipe at one end, and the other end is connected with the inlet and communicated to input the steam mixed with condensed water into the cylinder 1; the steam outlet pipe 3 is communicated with the steam pipe at one end, and the other end is connected with the outlet to transport the steam separated from the condensed water back to the steam pipe; the water body 4 is used to be placed in the cylinder 1 to contact with the steam mixed with condensed water entering the cylinder 1 and then absorb the condensed water of the steam mixed with condensed water; the top end of the drainage device is communicated with the cylinder 1, and the bottom end of the drainage device is communicated with the sewer below the sewer cover to drain the water body 4 in the cylinder 1 above the preset water level. The structure design makes the steam mixed with condensed water enter the cylinder 1, realizes the absorption and separation of condensed water by contacting with the water body 4, then transports the steam separated from the condensed water back to the steam pipe, forms an effective steam automatic water delivery and recycling cycle, improves the utilization efficiency of steam, and guarantees the stable operation of the steam system. The cylinder 1 is detachably connected above the sewer cover, which facilitates the regular inspection, maintenance and replacement of parts of the device, and the device can be maintained without complex construction operation, thereby reducing the maintenance cost and improving the maintenance efficiency. The inlet is arranged on the side wall of the cylinder 1, and the outlet is arranged on the top of the cylinder 1. This layout is beneficial to the natural flow of steam in the cylinder 1 and the separation of steam and water, and the condensed water is quickly settled in the water body 4 by gravity, thereby improving the separation effect.
[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the device for automatic water delivery of steam further comprises a first flow valve arranged on the steam inlet pipe 2. According to the actual production demand and the running state of the device, the steam input amount can be flexibly adjusted. This helps to ensure that the device can stably run under different working conditions, avoids the situation that the pressure in the cylinder 1 is too high or the steam and water separation effect is poor due to too large steam flow, and also prevents the situation that the production demand cannot be met due to too small steam flow.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the drain is an overflow pipe 5, the bottom of the cylinder 1 is provided with a first drain hole 6, the overflow pipe 5 is arranged in the cylinder 1, and the bottom of the overflow pipe 5 is connected and communicated with the first drain hole 6, the top opening of the overflow pipe 5 is flush with the preset water level of the cylinder 1, and the well lid is provided with a second drain hole at a position corresponding to the first drain hole 6. The arrangement of the overflow pipe 5 can automatically control the water level in the cylinder 1 to be at a preset level. When the water level reaches the preset level, the water will flow into the sewer through the overflow pipe 5, the first drain hole 6 and the second drain hole, preventing the cylinder 1 from accumulating too much water, affecting the steam-water separation effect or causing device failure, and ensuring that the device can operate stably and continuously. The drainage structure of the overflow pipe 5 is simple, easy to implement and maintain. Compared with complex mechanical drainage devices, it reduces the failure points, improves the reliability of the device, reduces the maintenance cost and difficulty.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the diameter of the first drain hole 6 is smaller than the diameter of the second drain hole, and a reasonable difference in hole diameter can optimize the smoothness of drainage. The larger diameter of the second drain hole can provide a smoother drainage path to accelerate the discharge of excess water 4 in the cylinder 1, helping the device to recover to the normal water level state faster, thereby improving the overall operating efficiency of the device.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the overflow pipe 5 is a bent pipe, and the top opening of the bent pipe faces away from the steam inlet. The top opening of the bent pipe facing away from the steam inlet can reduce the interference of the steam entering the steam inlet on the drainage of the overflow pipe 5. Because the steam entering the steam inlet can form a local steam flow field, if the opening of the overflow pipe 5 faces the steam inlet, the steam can directly impact the top opening of the overflow pipe 5, hindering drainage or even causing the steam to enter the overflow pipe 5. Facing away from the steam inlet can effectively avoid this situation, ensuring smooth drainage and effectively reducing steam escape.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the overflow pipe 5 is made of a stamping elbow with a diameter of 10 cm and a thickness of 0.8 cm, and the stamping elbow is welded to the first drain hole 6. Selecting a stamping elbow with a specific diameter and thickness to make the overflow pipe 5 can ensure that the overflow pipe 5 has sufficient strength and toughness, and will not easily deform or be damaged under the action of long-term water pressure and water flow in the cylinder 1. This helps to maintain the normal drainage function of the overflow pipe 5 and prolong the service life of the device. The welding connection method can form a good sealing effect between the overflow pipe 5 and the first drain hole 6, preventing water leakage at the connection. Avoiding the situation that water leakage causes unstable water level in the cylinder 1, affecting the normal operation of the device, ensures the stability and reliability of the operation of the device.
[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the device for automatic steam water delivery further comprises a connecting flange 7 and a plurality of connecting bolts 8, the connecting flange 7 is fixedly connected to the outer edge of the bottom of the cylinder body 1, and the connecting flange 7 is connected to the manhole cover through the connecting bolts 8. The connecting flange 7 and the connecting bolts 8 provide a stable and reliable connection between the cylinder body 1 and the manhole cover. This connection structure can withstand various forces generated during the operation of the device, such as steam pressure and water flow impact force, etc., ensuring that the cylinder body 1 is fixed firmly above the manhole cover and will not easily shift or shake, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the device; in addition, the use of connecting flange 7 and connecting bolts 8 makes the disassembly and assembly between the cylinder body 1 and the manhole cover convenient and fast. When the device needs to be checked, repaired or replaced, the connecting bolts 8 can be easily loosened to remove the cylinder body 1, which is simple and efficient, and improves the convenience of device maintenance.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the side wall of the cylinder body 1 is made of a seamless pipe with a diameter of 60 cm, a wall thickness of 0.6 cm and a length of 120 cm. The top plate and the bottom plate of the cylinder body 1 are made of 0.6 cm thick steel plates, which can provide enough space for the device to accommodate steam and water body 4 for steam-water separation operation, while ensuring that the cylinder body 1 has sufficient strength and rigidity. It can withstand the steam pressure in the cylinder body 1 and the external environmental pressure, preventing the cylinder body 1 from deforming, breaking and other conditions, ensuring the safe and reliable operation of the device. The material and structure of the seamless pipe and the steel plate can ensure that the cylinder body 1 has good sealing performance, reduce the possibility of steam leakage, and improve the energy utilization efficiency of the device. At the same time, this material and structure has good durability in long-term use, can resist the influence of steam, water and external environment corrosion and other factors, and prolongs the service life of the whole device.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the steam outlet pipe 3 is made of a seamless steel pipe with a thickness of 0.6 cm, a length of more than 100 cm, and a pipe diameter of 5 cm. The steam inlet pipe 2 is made of a seamless steel pipe with a thickness of 0.6 cm and a length of more than 5 cm. The steam outlet pipe 3 and the steam inlet pipe 2 are made of seamless steel pipes with the same diameter as the steam pipe. The appropriate thickness can ensure that the steam outlet pipe 3 and the steam inlet pipe 2 will not break or deform under the condition of bearing steam pressure, ensuring that the steam can be safely and stably transported. The sufficient length of the steam outlet pipe 3 can meet the connection requirements of the device and the steam pipe, and the reasonable pipe diameter ensures that the steam flow rate and flow meet the operation requirements of the device, ensuring that the separated steam can be smoothly transported back to the steam pipe, effectively ensuring the steam transmission.
