[0014] The working principle of an oxygen concentrator is as follows:
[0015] Inlet valves A and B, pressure equalizing valves C and D are all normally closed. After opening the supply valve on the main supply pipe, inlet valve A, control valve E, and pressure equalizing valve D are opened first. Compressed air supplied by the air tank can sequentially enter the inlet pipe of the first adsorption tower through tee connector A, supply branch pipe A, and tee connector B, and finally enter the bottom of the first adsorption tower. In the adsorption tower, nitrogen and other gases in the air are adsorbed by the molecular sieve, resulting in oxygen enrichment in the gas phase, which flows out from the outlet. Then, the flow regulating valve and outlet valve G are opened, and the oxygen-enriched air flows through the oxygen outlet extension pipe A and control valve. E. The four-way pipe joint, gas outlet valve G, and oxygen outlet main pipe supply gas to the gas storage tank. When the oxygen production of the first adsorption tower is about to end, the gas outlet valve G should be closed and the control valve F should be opened.

The nitrogen venting valve at the bottom of the first adsorption tower should be opened to vent nitrogen.
[0016] While the first adsorption tower discharges nitrogen, inlet valve B is opened, and the other adsorption tower begins a new adsorption cycle using the same process. The first and second adsorption towers form an alternating cycle. Using air as raw material, this method utilizes the selective adsorption performance of a high-efficiency, highly selective solid adsorbent to separate nitrogen and oxygen from the air. By using two towers in parallel, alternating pressure adsorption and depressurization regeneration, a continuous oxygen flow is obtained, which has the advantages of low gas consumption and energy saving.

[0042] The working principle of an oxygen concentrator is as follows:
[0043] Inlet valves A7, B8, C9, and D10 are normally closed. After opening the supply valve on the main supply pipe 3, inlet valve A7, control valve E17, and pressure equalization valve D10 are opened first. Compressed air supplied by the air tank enters the inlet pipe of the first adsorption tower 1 through the three-way connector A12, supply branch pipe A4, and three-way connector B13, and finally enters the bottom of the first adsorption tower 1. In the adsorption tower, nitrogen and other gases in the air are adsorbed by the molecular sieve, which enriches oxygen in the gas phase and flows out from the outlet. Then, flow regulating valve 19 and outlet valve G20 are opened, and oxygen-enriched air flows through oxygen outlet extension pipe A and control valve E1. 7.

The oxygen-enriched air in the first adsorption tower 1 enters the upper part of the second adsorption tower 2 through the pipeline to complete the upper pressure equalization of the second adsorption tower 2. Then, the control valve F18 should be closed and the pressure equalization valve D10 should be opened. The oxygen-enriched air in the first adsorption tower 1 enters the lower part of the second adsorption tower 2 through the pipeline to complete the lower pressure equalization of the second adsorption tower 2. Then, the pressure equalization valve D10, the gas inlet valve A7, and the control valve E17 should be closed, and the nitrogen venting valve at the bottom of the first adsorption tower 1 should be opened to vent nitrogen.
[0044] While the first adsorption tower 1 discharges nitrogen, the inlet valve B8 is opened, and the other adsorption tower starts a new adsorption cycle using the same process. The first adsorption tower 1 and the second adsorption tower 2 form an alternating cycle. Using air as raw material, the nitrogen and oxygen in the air are separated by utilizing the selective adsorption performance of a high-efficiency, highly selective solid adsorbent. By using two towers in parallel, alternating pressure adsorption and depressurization regeneration, a continuous oxygen flow is obtained, which has the advantages of low gas consumption and energy saving.

The pneumatic actuator has an air inlet and an air outlet inside. The air inlet and air outlet of the pneumatic actuator are respectively connected to a solenoid valve through corresponding air pipes. By controlling the reversal of the solenoid valve, compressed air controls the closing or opening of the valve body through the pneumatic actuator, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the pipeline opening and closing through the pneumatic valve.
[0047] Furthermore, the control cabinet 21 includes two sets of side panels A, the tops of the two sets of side panels A are connected by a top plate A, and the bottoms of the two sets of side panels A are connected by a bottom plate A, forming a frame structure with openings at both the front and back.

The upper slide table 30 is integrally formed with the bottom surface of the electrical control box 25.
[0050] The electrical control box 25 has an internal cavity for accommodating electrical components and has an open front end.

The tops of the two sets of side panels A are connected by a top plate A, and the bottoms of the two sets of side panels A are connected by a bottom plate A, forming a frame structure with openings at both the front and back.
8. The low gas consumption and energy-saving device for the oxygen generator adsorption tower according to claim 7, characterized in that, The electrical control box has an internal cavity for accommodating electrical components, and the front end of the cavity is open.
9. The low-gas-consumption and energy-saving device for the oxygen generator adsorption tower according to claim 8, characterized in that, The bottom plate B of the electrical control box is equipped with a pull-out bracket connected to the side plate A. The pull-out bracket includes a left fixed slide beam and a right fixed slide beam that are parallel to each other and spaced apart. A fixed platform is connected between the left fixed slide beam and the right fixed slide beam. A central longitudinal beam parallel to the left fixed slide beam is provided in the middle of the fixed platform. The left fixed slide beam and the right fixed slide beam are respectively fixed to the inner walls of the two sets of side plates A of the control cabinet. A sliding side rail A that slides along its length is provided in the left fixed slide beam. A sliding side rail B that slides along its length is provided in the right fixed slide beam. An upper slide table is connected between the sliding side rail A and the sliding side rail B. A nylon slide strip that slides in cooperation with the central longitudinal beam is provided on the lower surface of the upper slide table. The upper slide table is integrally formed with the bottom surface of the electrical control box.
10. The low-gas-consumption and energy-saving device for the oxygen generator adsorption tower according to claim 9, characterized in that, Both sliding rail A and sliding rail B are square steel tubes. The bottom of sliding rail A and sliding rail B are respectively provided with wear-resistant strips that slide in cooperation with the inner surfaces of the left fixed slide beam and the right fixed slide beam.
