Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of air compressor technology, and specifically relates to an energy-saving air compressor. Background Technology

[0002] An air compressor, or air press for short, is a mechanical device used to compress air, increase gas pressure, or transport gas. Its core working principle is to compress a certain amount of air at normal pressure into a smaller volume through mechanical work, thereby increasing the air pressure. As a commonly used mechanical device, it is widely used in many fields such as industrial production and construction.

[0003] Problems with existing technology:

[0004] In current air compressors, the airflow path of the cooling fan is often unreasonable, easily causing the heat generated by the equipment itself to be re-absorbed and circulated, acting again on the motor and cylinder, creating heat backflow. This not only fails to achieve effective cooling but also exacerbates the heat load on the equipment, leading to a vicious cycle, further reducing equipment performance and shortening its normal operating cycle. Furthermore, unfiltered air entering the compressor directly allows dust, particulate matter, and other impurities to accumulate inside the cylinder, on the piston surface, and in critical areas such as valves, accelerating component wear and causing a decline in sealing performance. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an energy-saving air compressor that effectively prevents the heat from the motor and cylinder from being drawn into the turbine blades and blown back onto itself, thereby improving the heat dissipation and cooling effect, ensuring stable operation of the equipment, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0006] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] An energy-saving air compressor includes a storage tank. A shock-absorbing base is provided on the top of the storage tank, and a motor is provided on the top of the shock-absorbing base. A cylinder is provided on the top of the shock-absorbing base and on one side of the motor. Both the output shaft of the motor and the input shaft of the cylinder are provided with rotating tubes. Turbine blades are provided on the inner side of the rotating tubes. Pulleys are provided on the outer walls of the two rotating tubes, and a belt is provided between the outer walls of the two pulleys. A cooling box is provided on one side of the storage tank. A connecting pipe is connected through the top of the cooling box. A protective plate is provided between the outer walls of the two rotating tubes. The outer wall of the protective plate has a through-hole for sealing and rotating connection with the rotating tubes. A bucket-shaped cover is connected through the other end of the connecting pipe, and the other side of the bucket-shaped cover is connected to the mounting groove. Multiple L-shaped air inlet pipes are arrayed on one side of the cooling box. One end of each L-shaped air inlet pipe is located inside the cooling box and extends to its bottom.

[0008] The shock-absorbing base includes a base disposed on the top of the storage tank, a shock-absorbing rubber pad disposed on the top of the base, a mounting seat disposed on the top of the shock-absorbing rubber pad, a plurality of corrugated steel sheets disposed inside the shock-absorbing rubber pad, and shock-absorbing support feet disposed at the bottom of the storage tank.

[0009] The cylinder's air inlet is connected to a second air inlet pipe, and the other end of the second air inlet pipe passes through the protective plate and is connected to the top of the cooling box.

[0010] One end of the L-shaped air intake pipe is located outside the cooling box and is equipped with a filter screen.

[0011] The bottom of the cooling box is provided with heat dissipation fins to cool the coolant inside the cooling box.

[0012] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This invention utilizes the suction force generated by the rotation of the turbine blades to blow cooled and filtered air from the cooling box onto the motor and cylinder. This effectively prevents the heat from the motor and cylinder themselves from being drawn into the turbine blades and blown back onto themselves, improving heat dissipation and cooling effects, ensuring stable operation of the equipment, and extending its service life. The L-shaped air inlet pipe, in conjunction with the coolant at the bottom of the cooling box, cools and filters the incoming air, improving the practicality of the equipment and enhancing the quality of the compressed air. The second air inlet pipe further cools and filters the gas entering the cylinder, effectively preventing impurities from entering the cylinder and improving its service life and performance.

[0014] The combination of shock-absorbing rubber pads and corrugated steel sheets in the shock-absorbing seat, along with the shock-absorbing support feet at the bottom of the storage tank, provides shock absorption and buffering from both local and overall aspects of the equipment, improving the stability of the equipment's operation and effectively reducing noise generation.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an energy-saving air compressor includes a storage tank 1. A shock-absorbing base is mounted on top of the storage tank 1, and a motor 2 is mounted on top of the shock-absorbing base. A cylinder 3 is mounted on top of the shock-absorbing base and to one side of the motor 2. Rotary tubes 6 are mounted on the output shaft of the motor 2 and the input shaft of the cylinder 3. Turbine blades 5 are mounted inside the rotary tubes 6. Pulleys 7 are mounted on the outer walls of the two rotary tubes 6, and a belt 8 is mounted between the outer walls of the two pulleys 7. A cooling box 9 is mounted on one side of the storage tank 1. A water inlet and a drain outlet are mounted on one side of the cooling box 9, with the drain outlet located below the water inlet. A connecting pipe 10 is connected through the top of the cooling box 9. A waterproof and breathable membrane is installed inside the connecting pipe 10 to prevent coolant from entering. A protective plate 12 is provided between the outer walls of the pipe 6. The outer wall of the protective plate 12 is provided with a mounting groove that is rotatably and sealingly connected to the rotating pipe 6. The other end of the connecting pipe 10 is connected to a funnel-shaped cover 11, and the other side of the funnel-shaped cover 11 is connected to the mounting groove. A plurality of L-shaped air inlet pipes 13 are arrayed on one side of the cooling box 9. One end of the L-shaped air inlet pipe 13 is located inside the cooling box 9 and extends to its bottom. A filter screen is provided at one end of the L-shaped air inlet pipe 13 outside the cooling box 9. A heat dissipation fin 14 is provided through the bottom of the cooling box 9 for cooling the coolant inside the cooling box 9. The air inlet of the cylinder 3 is connected to a second air inlet pipe 19, and the other end of the second air inlet pipe 19 passes through the protective plate 12 and is connected to the top of the cooling box 9.

[0024] According to the above structure, starting motor 2 drives turbine blade 5 and rotating tube 6 to rotate. This, combined with pulley 7 and belt 8, simultaneously drives turbine blade 5 and rotating tube 6 on the input shaft of cylinder 3 to rotate. The rotation of turbine blade 5 generates suction, which, combined with bucket-shaped cover 11 and connecting pipe 10, changes the air pressure inside cooling box 9. This causes outside air to pass through the filter screen and enter the L-shaped intake pipe 13, then into the coolant at the bottom of cooling box 9 for cooling. Finally, the air passes through the coolant, causing it to bubble continuously to prevent stagnation and ensure heat dissipation. The air then enters the connecting pipe 10 at the top of cooling box 9, and from there into the bucket... The shroud 11, blowing air from one side of the turbine blade 5, effectively cools the motor 2 and cylinder 3, preventing the heat from being drawn into the turbine blade 5 and blown back onto the motor 2 and cylinder 3. Additionally, some cooled air enters the cylinder 3 through the second intake pipe 19 for air compression. The L-shaped intake pipe 13, in conjunction with the coolant at the bottom of the cooling box 9, cools and filters the incoming air, increasing the equipment's practicality. The second intake pipe 19 effectively cools and filters the gas entering the cylinder 3, preventing impurities from entering and improving its lifespan and performance.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the shock-absorbing base includes a base 15 disposed on the top of the storage tank 1, a shock-absorbing rubber pad 17 disposed on the top of the base 15, a mounting base 16 disposed on the top of the shock-absorbing rubber pad 17, and multiple corrugated steel sheets 18 disposed inside the shock-absorbing rubber pad 17; multiple shock-absorbing legs 4 are disposed at the bottom of the storage tank 1, and the shock-absorbing legs 4 include multiple sleeves disposed at the bottom of the storage tank 1, with a plug rod sliding up and down inside the sleeve, and a spring connected to the plug rod disposed inside the sleeve.

[0026] According to the above structure, the combination of the shock-absorbing rubber pad 17 and the corrugated steel sheet 18 can dampen and buffer the motor 2 and cylinder 3 on the mounting base 16, improve the stability of the equipment operation, and effectively reduce the generation of noise. The shock-absorbing support 4 can buffer and dampen the entire equipment, further improving the stability of the equipment operation and reducing the generation of noise.

[0027] The working principle of this invention is as follows: Starting the motor 2 drives the turbine blade 5 and rotating tube 6 to rotate. Through the transmission of the pulley 7 and belt 8, the turbine blade 5 and rotating tube 6 on the input shaft of the cylinder 3 also rotate. The rotation of the turbine blade 5 generates suction, which changes the air pressure inside the cooling box 9 through the funnel-shaped cover 11 and connecting pipe 10. This causes external air to pass through the filter screen and enter the L-shaped air intake pipe 13, then into the coolant at the bottom of the cooling box 9 for cooling. As the air passes through the coolant, it causes continuous bubbling, preventing the coolant from stagnating and affecting its heat dissipation. Afterward, the air enters the connecting pipe 10 at the top of the cooling box 9, then enters the funnel-shaped cover 11, and is blown out from one side of the turbine blade 5, thus cooling the motor 2 and cylinder 3. Simultaneously, the L-shaped air intake pipe 13, in conjunction with the coolant at the bottom of the cooling box 9, cools and filters the incoming air. The combination of the shock-absorbing rubber pad 17 and the corrugated steel sheet 18 in the shock-absorbing seat can provide shock absorption and buffering for the motor 2 and cylinder 3 on the mounting base 16; the shock-absorbing support 4 can provide overall shock absorption and buffering for the equipment.

[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
