Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of adsorption drying tower technology, and in particular to a novel drying tower. Background Technology

[0002] Gases are dried using drying towers, typically through activated carbon adsorption. However, existing drying towers do not readily dehumidify the activated carbon, hindering its continuous use and requiring manual replacement. This prevents modern drying towers from continuously drying gases, reducing their drying efficiency.

[0003] A search of related technologies revealed an adsorption drying tower (publication number CN213725677U) comprising a tower body, with gas distributors installed at the upper and lower ends of the tower. Between the two gas distributors, from bottom to top, are a filter layer and an adsorption layer. The filter layer includes a filter screen, an activated carbon layer, and a cotton yarn layer. This invention modifies the drying tower by adding gas distributors to evenly divide the incoming gas into multiple channels entering the working area, ensuring the gas to be dried is fully adsorbed and improving the treatment effect. Secondly, it adds a filter layer to filter impurities from the gas, improving its cleanliness. However, this drying tower is not suitable for dehumidifying the activated carbon, hindering its continuous use and requiring manual replacement. This prevents the new drying tower from continuously drying the gas, reducing its drying efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel drying tower to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A novel drying tower includes a drying tower body for drying gas and two dehumidification boxes. The two dehumidification boxes are connected to the drying tower body on adjacent sides. A sealing ring is embedded and fixedly connected to the side of the right dehumidification box away from the drying tower body. A connecting rod is slidably connected to the inner ring surface of the sealing ring. A vertically arranged connecting plate is welded to the end face of the connecting rod. An electric telescopic rod is detachably connected to the side of the connecting plate by bolts. The fixed end of the electric telescopic rod is installed on the outer wall of the drying tower body. A storage rack is welded to the end of the connecting rod away from the connecting plate. A storage mesh for storing activated carbon is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage rack. Both storage racks are slidably connected to the dehumidification boxes and the drying tower body. An electric heating plate is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the respective dehumidification box.

[0006] Preferably, the two storage racks are welded together on adjacent sides, and the top of the dehumidification box on the right side abuts against the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod.

[0007] Preferably, the top surface of the dehumidification box is connected to an exhaust pipe equipped with a one-way exhaust valve, and the top wall of the drying tower is welded with an internally hollow fixing plate.

[0008] Preferably, the top surface of the fixed plate is connected to an air inlet pipe for introducing gas, and the top surface of the air inlet pipe extends out of the top surface of the drying tower.

[0009] Preferably, a sealed bearing is embedded and fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the fixed plate, and an L-shaped air guide tube is interference-fitted into the inner ring of the sealed bearing.

[0010] Preferably, a fixing rod is welded to the inner surface of the air duct, and a support rod is welded to the top surface of the fixing rod.

[0011] Preferably, two arc-shaped fan blades are fixedly connected to the end face of the support rod, and an air outlet pipe is connected to the side of the drying tower.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This novel drying tower features an inlet pipe that facilitates the introduction of the gas to be dried into the tower body. The activated carbon stored on top of the two storage racks and the storage mesh provides drying for the gas. An electric telescopic rod provides power, causing the connecting plate to move laterally during its movement. The connection between the connecting plate and the rod facilitates the lateral movement of the two storage racks and the storage mesh, allowing the racks to alternately extend into the dehumidification chamber. This ensures that storage racks are always present inside the drying tower, enabling continuous gas drying. Simultaneously, an electric heating plate provides heat to the activated carbon on top of the storage mesh, further enhancing the continuous drying efficiency of the tower.

[0014] This novel drying tower introduces gas through an inlet pipe, allowing the gas to flow into the inner cavity of a fixed plate. The gas is then directed into the tower body for drying via the connecting pipe. A sealing bearing provides a seal and simultaneously fixes the rotational position of the gas guide pipe, improving its rotational stability. The gas entering the fixed plate cavity drives two arc-shaped fan blades to rotate. Connected by a support rod and a fixed rod, these blades rotate the gas guide pipe. The L-shaped design of the gas guide pipe increases the range of gas introduced into the tower body, ensuring uniform contact between the gas and activated carbon, improving the drying efficiency and effectiveness, and ultimately enhancing the structural stability of the tower's components.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, the directions mentioned herein, such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside, are based on the directions shown in the figures of this utility model, and are explained here together.

[0025] The connection method can be any existing method, such as bonding, welding, or bolting, depending on the actual needs.

[0026] To address the issue of modern drying towers being inconvenient for dehumidifying activated carbon, enabling continuous use of activated carbon, and reducing the drying efficiency of modern drying towers for gases, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 1 to 5 The main structure of the device consists of a drying tower 1 for drying the gas and two dehumidification boxes 2. The gas introduced is dried by the drying tower 1. The two dehumidification boxes 2 are connected to the drying tower 1 on their adjacent sides. A sealing ring 3 is embedded and fixedly connected to the side of the right dehumidification box 2 away from the drying tower 1. The sealing ring 3 provides a sealing function. A connecting rod 4 is slidably connected to the inner ring surface of the sealing ring 3, which facilitates the movement of the connecting rod 4 along the inner ring surface of the sealing ring 3. At the same time, the sealing function provided by the sealing ring 3 prevents the connection gap between the connecting rod 4 and the sealing ring 3, thereby improving the structural stability of the drying tower components.

[0027] A vertically arranged connecting plate 5 is welded to the end face of the connecting rod 4. An electric telescopic rod 6 is detachably connected to the side of the connecting plate 5 by bolts. The electric telescopic rod 6 provides power and drives the connecting rod 4 to move under the connection provided by the connecting plate 5. The fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 6 is installed on the outer wall of the drying tower 1. The outer wall of the drying tower 1 is detachably connected to the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 6 by bolts. A storage rack 7 is welded to the end of the connecting rod 4 away from the connecting plate 5. A storage net 8 for storing activated carbon is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage rack 7. The storage net 8 is located at the bottom edge of the storage rack 7, which facilitates the storage of activated carbon through the storage rack 7 and the storage net 8, so that the activated carbon can provide a drying effect on the gas introduced into the drying tower 1. Both storage racks 7 are slidably connected to the dehumidification box 2 and the drying tower 1.

[0028] Two storage racks 7 are moved along the inner walls of two dehumidification boxes 2 and a drying tower 1. The storage racks 7 provide a sealing barrier at the connection between the two dehumidification boxes 2 and the storage racks 7, facilitating the alternating flow of the two storage racks 7 into the drying tower 1 during the lateral movement, thus enabling the alternating use of the two storage racks 7. An electric heating plate 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the dehumidification box 2, and the electric heating plate 10 is connected to an external power supply to provide heating to the dehumidification box 2. This heating provides a dehumidifying effect to the activated carbon stored in the storage racks 7 leading out of the drying tower 1, thereby facilitating the removal of moisture adsorbed inside the activated carbon. This enables the new type of drying tower to continuously dry the introduced gas, improving the drying efficiency of the drying tower.

[0029] The two storage racks 7 are welded to each other on adjacent sides, which facilitates the synchronous movement of the two storage racks 7. The top of the dehumidification box 2 on the right side abuts against the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 6, which provides support for the electric telescopic rod 6 and improves the structural stability of the drying tower components. The top surface of the dehumidification box 2 is connected to an exhaust pipe 9 equipped with a one-way exhaust valve, which facilitates the discharge of moisture inside the dehumidification box 2 through the exhaust pipe 9. At the same time, it facilitates the collection of the discharged gas by external collection equipment, preventing the discharged moisture from being mixed with a small amount of dry gas, thereby causing environmental pollution and improving the environmental friendliness of the new drying tower.

[0030] A hollow fixing plate 12 is welded to the inner top wall of the drying tower body 1. The drying tower body 1 provides a positional fixation function for the fixing plate 12. The top surface of the fixing plate 12 is connected to an air inlet pipe 11 for introducing gas, which facilitates the introduction of the gas to be dried into the air inlet pipe 11, and then the gas flows into the inner cavity of the fixing plate 12. The top surface of the air inlet pipe 11 extends out of the top surface of the drying tower body 1. The outer surface of the air inlet pipe 11 is embedded and fixedly connected to the top surface of the drying tower body 1, and the connection between the air inlet pipe 11 and the drying tower body 1 is sealed to prevent gas leakage. A sealed bearing 13 is embedded and fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the fixing plate 12. The inner ring of the sealed bearing 13 is interference-fitted with an L-shaped air guide pipe 14.

[0031] The sealing bearing 13 provides a sealing function and also fixes the rotational position of the gas guide pipe 14, improving the rotational stability of the gas guide pipe 14. A fixing rod 15 is welded to the inner surface of the gas guide pipe 14, and a support rod 16 is welded to the top surface of the fixing rod 15. Two arc-shaped fan blades 17 are fixedly connected to the end face of the support rod 16. The fixing rod 15 and the support rod 16 provide support and connection for the arc-shaped fan blades 17, so that the gas in the inner cavity of the fixing plate 12 pushes the two arc-shaped fan blades 17 to rotate around the support rod 16 as the center when the gas flows through the gas guide pipe 14. During the transmission process, the gas guide pipe 14 is rotated, which facilitates the increase of the range of gas introduced into the drying tower body 1, thereby facilitating the uniform contact between the gas and the activated carbon and improving the drying efficiency and effect of the drying tower. An outlet pipe 18 is connected to the side of the drying tower body 1, through which the dried gas is discharged.

[0032] The electric telescopic rod 6 and the electric heating plate 10 are both existing technologies. Their working principles, dimensions, and models are irrelevant to the function of this application, so they will not be described in detail. The control method of this utility model is controlled by a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by a person skilled in the art through simple programming. The power supply is also common knowledge in the art. Furthermore, this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, so the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.

[0033] Working principle

[0034] In this new type of drying tower, when the user uses it, the gas introduced into the drying tower body 1 comes into contact with the activated carbon stored in the storage racks 7 and storage mesh 8, which provides a drying effect on the gas. The electric telescopic rod 6 is activated, and under the connection provided by the connecting plate 5 and the connecting rod 4, the positions of the two storage racks 7 can be moved at any time, so that the activated carbon stored in the storage racks 7 and storage mesh 8 can flow into the drying tower body 1 alternately for use. The electric heating plate 10 is electrically connected to the external power supply equipment to dehumidify the activated carbon in the dehumidification box 2. The sealing ring 3 provides a sealing effect.

[0035] By introducing the gas to be dried into the inlet pipe 11, the gas flows into the inner cavity of the fixed plate 12. The sealed bearing 13 fixes the rotational position of the gas guide pipe 14, and at the same time realizes the relative rotation of the gas guide pipe 14 and the fixed plate 12. As the gas flowing into the fixed plate 12 flows into the gas guide pipe 14, it drives the two arc-shaped fan blades 17 to rotate. Under the connection provided by the support rod 16 and the fixed rod 15, the L-shaped gas guide pipe 14 is driven to rotate, increasing the range of gas introduced into the drying tower body 1, realizing uniform contact between the gas and the activated carbon, and improving the drying effect of the gas.
