TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of medical oxygen generating equipment, and specifically relates to an energy-saving backflow device for medical oxygen generating equipment. BACKGROUND
[0002] The working principle of the medical oxygen generator is that first, the compressor compresses the air inhaled from the outside to a high pressure, and then pumps it into the adsorption tower. The adsorption tower is provided with molecular sieve. The molecular sieve is a kind of porous material with selective adsorption capacity, which can adsorb nitrogen, carbon dioxide and other impurities in the air, and let the oxygen which is not easy to be adsorbed pass through, so as to realize the separation of oxygen and impurities. The adsorption tower inputs the oxygen separated into the buffer tank for temporary storage through the buffer pipe. After the air is separated by the molecular sieve, the concentration of oxygen is significantly improved to meet the standard for medical use. In addition, when the molecular sieve bed is saturated, it needs to be regenerated. This is usually done by reducing the bed pressure to desorb and discharge the impurities adsorbed on the molecular sieve, thereby restoring the adsorption capacity of the molecular sieve. The above process is usually carried out in a cycle in the medical oxygen generator to ensure continuous production of high-concentration oxygen.
[0003] Some medical oxygen generators are also provided with a backflow system. The basic principle of energy-saving backflow is that during the oxygen generation process, after the adsorption tower is saturated, it needs to be regenerated. The oxygen in the buffer tank is input into the top of the adsorption tower through the backflow pipe, and the adsorption bed is flushed from top to bottom to accelerate the desorption process of nitrogen, thereby improving the subsequent adsorption efficiency and reducing the energy consumption required for regeneration. Or the oxygen with a concentration that does not meet the requirements is backflowed into the adsorption tower for further separation and purification operation until the oxygen concentration in the buffer tank meets the preset requirements.
[0004] The utility model patent CN220918595U discloses an easy-to-operate energy-saving backflow device for medical oxygen generating equipment, which comprises a bottom plate, a buffer tank and an adsorption tower arranged on the upper end of the bottom plate. An air inlet assembly is arranged on the bottom plate, and a backflow assembly is arranged on the air inlet port of the adsorption tower. The bottom plate comprises a baffle fixedly installed on the upper end of the bottom plate. The air inlet assembly comprises a bearing block fixedly installed on the rear end of the baffle. The energy-saving backflow device for medical oxygen generating equipment is compact, occupies less area, and facilitates quick replacement of the filter structure, and is easy to operate.
[0005] The inventor believes that the above-mentioned technology has the following defects: in the above-mentioned technology, the inner and outer walls of the filter pipe are provided with screw grooves, and the inner wall of the screw groove is provided with a threaded connection pipe. This design of multiple threads penetrating each other causes the existence of column structures in the gas pipeline. Although it is convenient to disassemble the filter pipe, the column structures in the pipeline cause multiple Karman vortex streets, which change the laminar flow in the pipeline into complex turbulent flow, thereby increasing the energy consumption and causing the noise to become larger, which does not meet the working environment of the medical oxygen generating equipment, and therefore it is not practical.
