Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a ventilating device, and more particularly to a ventilating and dustproof device for the oil tank of a Roots blower. Background Technology
[0002] Roots blowers, as a typical gas pressurization and conveying machine, are widely used in industries such as building materials, power, metallurgy, mining, aquaculture, sewage treatment, and chemicals.
[0003] The Roots blower is equipped with an oil tank, and an oil tank vent cap is installed on the oil tank. The oil tank vent cap is mainly used to balance the air pressure inside and outside the oil tank, prevent the oil tank from leaking due to excessive pressure, and at the same time prevent external dust and impurities from entering the oil tank, ensuring the cleanliness of the lubricating oil.
[0004] However, most oil tank vent caps currently in use allow lubricating oil and high-pressure gas to mix together and be discharged through the vent cap when the pressure inside the oil tank is too high. This causes the oil level in the oil tank to drop, affecting the normal lubrication of the fan bearings and gears. Low oil levels can damage components such as bearings and gears, reducing the service life of the fan. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, the outer circumference of the dustproof section of the gas permeation cap is fixedly provided with anti-skid strips, the number of the anti-skid strips is multiple, and the multiple anti-skid strips are arranged along the length direction of the gas permeation and dustproof device.
[0011] The multiple anti-skid strips are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction on the gas permeation cap dustproof section.

[0013] Preferably, the number of the oil baffles is four, the four oil baffles are uniformly distributed along the length direction of the lengthened pipe in the inside of the lengthened pipe, and the two adjacent oil baffles are distributed with a rotation of 180 degrees.

[0016] Preferably, the multiple gas permeation holes are located at the position close to the upper end on the gas permeation section of the gas permeation cap.
[0017] Preferably, the number of the gas permeation holes is eight, and the eight gas permeation holes are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction on the gas permeation section of the gas permeation cap.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:
[0019] 1. By arranging the oil baffle in the inside of the lengthened pipe, the oil baffle can effectively block the lubricating oil in the oil tank from being discharged outward, when the pressure in the oil tank is too high, the lubricating oil in the oil tank and the high-pressure gas will be mixed together and move to the gas permeation hole direction, among them, the lubricating oil will be blocked by the oil baffle and fall into the oil tank again, the high-pressure gas will normally pass through the gas permeation channel and enter the inside of the gas permeation section of the gas permeation cap, and then be discharged outward through the gas permeation hole, finally, the high-pressure gas can be normally discharged, the stability of the pressure in the oil tank is maintained, the discharge of the lubricating oil outward is avoided, the oil amount of the lubricating oil in the oil tank is maintained, the normal lubrication of the bearing and gear parts is ensured, and the service life of the fan is prolonged.

[0021] 3. In order to further increase the blocking effect on the lubricating oil in the oil tank, the downward inclination angle of the oil baffle in the lengthened pipe is 5°±1°. After the lubricating oil contacts the lower end surface of the oil baffle, under the action of the upward thrust of the high-pressure gas, the lubricating oil will flow away from the air permeation channel along the lower end surface of the oil baffle under the action of the 5°±1° inclination angle, and will not flow to the direction of the air permeation channel. Finally, under the action of gravity, the lubricating oil falls into the oil tank again.
[0022] Meanwhile, the size of the air permeation channel is 1 / 4 of the inner diameter size of the lengthened pipe. The size ratio can not only ensure that the high-pressure gas can smoothly flow upward through the air permeation channel, but also can reduce the noise generated when the high-pressure gas flows, and the high-pressure gas will not cause too much impact on the lubricating oil, so that the lubricating oil will not be splashed everywhere when it is subjected to too much pressure impact.

[0033] In order to increase the convenience during installation and the firmness after installation of the air-permeable dustproof device, the following embodiments are adopted:

[0037] In order to increase the blocking effect of the lubricating oil in the oil tank, the following embodiment is adopted:
[0038] In the embodiment, the number of the oil baffle 3 is four, the four oil baffles 3 are uniformly distributed along the length direction of the lengthening pipe 2 in the interior of the lengthening pipe 2, and the two adjacent oil baffles 3 are distributed at a rotation angle of 180 degrees.

[0039] In order to further increase the blocking effect of the lubricating oil in the oil tank, the following embodiment is adopted:
[0040] In the embodiment, the downward inclination angle of the oil baffle 3 in the interior of the lengthening pipe 2 is 5°±1°. After the lubricating oil contacts the lower end surface of the oil baffle 3, due to the inclination angle of 5°±1°, under the action of the upward thrust of the high-pressure gas, the lubricating oil flows away from the air-permeable passage 4 along the lower end surface of the oil baffle 3, instead of flowing to the direction of the air-permeable passage 4, and finally falls into the oil tank again under the action of gravity.

If the plurality of air holes 10201 are arranged at the lower end of the air passage cap air passage section 102, part of the high-pressure gas entering the inside of the air passage cap air passage section 102 will stay at the upper end of the air passage cap air passage section 102 and form a circulating flow at this position, which will cause turbulence. Long-term turbulence will increase the resistance of the high-pressure gas flow, and eventually, it will cause the pressure and temperature in the oil tank to be too high.
[0044] In order to increase the efficiency of gas discharge, the following embodiment is adopted:
[0045] In this embodiment, the number of air holes 10201 is eight, and the eight air holes 10201 are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction on the air passage cap air passage section 102, which can ensure the rapid discharge of high-pressure gas.
[0046] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present application, and cannot limit the scope of the present application. Therefore, the replacement of equivalent components or equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the present application shall still fall within the scope of the present application.
