Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of water-gas separation devices, and in particular to a water-gas separation device. Background Technology

[0002] Clinically used surgical instruments include eight types: scalpels, surgical scissors, surgical forceps, hemostats, needle holders, tissue forceps, and retractors. These surgical instruments need to be sterilized at high temperatures after use so that they can be reused.

[0003] High-temperature sterilization equipment typically uses high-temperature steam for sterilization. To prevent burns from the direct release of high-temperature steam, it is necessary to cool the steam before releasing it.

[0004] According to the search, Chinese utility model patent (authorization announcement number: CN208260472U) provides a condensing gas-liquid separation device, including a closed box body. An air inlet and an air outlet are respectively opened on the opposite bottom and top surfaces of the box body. A cooling coil is arranged around the inner wall of the box body. At least two solid plates and at least two perforated plates are arranged in the cavity formed by the cooling coil, and the solid plates and perforated plates are arranged one-to-one in the cavity.

[0005] Following the gas flow direction, a first solid plate, a first perforated plate, a second solid plate, and a second perforated plate are sequentially arranged within the cavity formed by the cooling coil. These plates define a labyrinthine gas passage within the casing. A water outlet is located on the bottom surface of the casing. The cooling coil comprises a hollow metal tube with several heat dissipation fins fixed to it, and condensate flows through the hollow metal tube.

[0006] The aforementioned prior art uses cooling coils arranged around the perimeter of the housing, forming a channel cavity in the center of the cooling coils. Solid plates and perforated plates are spaced apart within this channel cavity, thus creating a labyrinthine gas channel inside the housing. This allows the gas to remain within the housing for an extended period, increasing the cooling time, and also ensures that the gas can make full and effective contact with the cooling coils, resulting in faster and more thorough cooling. This ensures the efficient and stable operation of the gas-liquid separation device.

[0007] Furthermore, by installing heat sinks and condensate in the cooling coil, the cooling coil can be kept at a lower temperature, while increasing the contact area between the gas and the cooling coil, thus enabling the cooling reaction to proceed more efficiently.

[0008] The aforementioned existing technology has the following drawbacks: gas enters from the bottom of the chamber and exits from the top, but the drain outlet is also located at the bottom of the chamber. This results in liquefied liquid dripping from the air inlet. Since the liquefied liquid has no direction, if it drips into some equipment, it may cause the equipment to rust. Therefore, this shortcoming urgently needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0009] The purpose of this invention is to address the above problems. This invention provides a water-air separation device, which has the advantage that the water after water-air separation can be guided to the outlet.

[0013] Preferably, the separator has a separation chamber, and the separation chamber is provided with a plurality of first baffles and second baffles. The first baffles and second baffles are respectively staggered on opposite end walls of the separation chamber, so that a labyrinthine channel is formed in the separation chamber through the first baffles and second baffles. The exhaust port is provided at one end of the labyrinthine channel, and the drain port is provided at the other end of the labyrinthine channel.

[0014] Preferably, the separator is disposed inside the water storage chamber.

[0015] Preferably, the separator is integrally formed with the shell body.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] This utility model provides a water-gas separation device in which steam enters the separator through a connecting pipe. When the steam passes through the connecting pipe, the steam in the connecting pipe is liquid-cooled by the water in the water storage chamber, thereby separating the steam in the connecting pipe into water and gas.

Furthermore, the labyrinth design in the separator allows the gas to stay in the separator for a long time, improving the cooling and separation time. Attached Figure Description
