Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vertical sterilizers, and more particularly to a vertical sterilizer that is easy to disassemble. Background Technology

[0002] In many fields such as medical and health care, scientific research experiments, and food processing, sterilizers are key equipment to ensure a sterile environment and the hygiene and safety of instruments and products. Vertical sterilizers have been widely used due to their relatively reasonable space occupation and convenient operation.

[0003] However, traditional vertical sterilizers have revealed a series of installation and maintenance problems in actual use. From an installation perspective, the connections between key internal components are often complex, commonly involving numerous bolts, welding, or sealant bonding. These connection methods not only require professional technicians to spend a significant amount of time on precise alignment, bolt tightening, or welding during initial installation, increasing labor costs and installation time, but also make disassembly extremely cumbersome and difficult when a component malfunctions and needs repair or replacement. For example, removing the inner tank for inspection or replacement may require removing numerous bolts and even damaging the sealant, a process that can easily damage surrounding components, further increasing the difficulty and cost of maintenance.

[0004] Meanwhile, in high-frequency use environments such as hospital operating room instrument sterilization departments and quality control laboratories of large food production enterprises, sterilizers require regular maintenance to ensure they maintain optimal sterilization performance. However, the difficulty in disassembling traditional sterilizers makes it challenging for maintenance personnel to conduct thorough internal inspections and cleaning efficiently.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new, easily disassembled vertical sterilizer to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a vertical sterilizer that is easy to disassemble.

[0007] This utility model provides a vertical sterilizer that is easy to disassemble, comprising: a base, on which a cylindrical shell is fixedly connected, a cap is provided at the top of the cylindrical shell, handles are symmetrically provided on the side wall of the cap, an inner liner is provided inside the cylindrical shell, and an electric heating element is provided outside the inner liner; a convenient disassembly mechanism, comprising two slots, which are symmetrically provided on the upper side wall of the inner liner, side tubes are provided on both upper side walls of the cylindrical shell, sliding rods are slidably connected in both side tubes, sliding rods are slidably connected inside both sliding rods, a locking head is fixedly connected to one end of both sliding rods, a back piece is installed and connected to the other end of both sliding rods, and a spring is sleeved and connected to both sliding rods.

[0008] Preferably, both of the card heads are wedge-shaped designs.

[0009] Preferably, each of the two slide rods is provided with a cam, the two cams are respectively located inside the two side tubes, one end of each of the two springs is connected to the two cams, and the other end of each of the two springs is connected to the inner wall of the two side tubes.

[0010] Preferably, the inner liner has an inner diameter that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The upper side wall of the inner liner is provided with side strips, and two symmetrically arranged positioning seats are provided on the inner wall of the shell. The two side strips are slidably connected to the two positioning seats respectively.

[0011] Preferably, the heating element abuts against the lower outer wall of the inner liner, two bottom blocks are symmetrically provided at the lower end of the heating element, and two bottom seats are symmetrically provided on the lower shell wall of the cylinder, with the two bottom blocks slidably connected to the two bottom seats respectively.

[0012] Preferably, a circular groove is provided at the bottom of the lower end of the cylindrical shell.

[0013] Compared with related technologies, the vertical sterilizer that is easy to disassemble provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This utility model adopts an innovative modular structure design. Whether it is the installation of the heating element and the shell, or the assembly of the inner liner and the shell, both are achieved through a simple sliding insertion method to quickly assemble and position the equipment. Compared with the complex bolt connections and welding installation methods of traditional sterilizers, it greatly shortens the installation time of the equipment and reduces the input of labor costs. During equipment maintenance and repair, the inner liner and the shell can be easily disassembled and reinstalled with the help of the clever design of the clamp, slide bar and spring, without the need for professional and complicated tools and a lot of manpower. This effectively reduces the difficulty of equipment maintenance and repair time, improves the availability and operating efficiency of the equipment, and ensures that the equipment can be quickly restored to normal operation when sterilization needs are urgent, reducing the production downtime caused by equipment failure or maintenance.

[0015] 2. This utility model, through precise sliding fit and elastic snap-fit ​​connection between various components, achieves convenient assembly and disassembly while ensuring the stability and reliability of the overall structure. The snap-fit ​​connection between the inner liner and the shell not only facilitates installation but also effectively prevents displacement or loosening of the inner liner due to vibration, pressure changes, or other factors during equipment operation. This ensures the sealing and structural integrity of the sterilization chamber, guaranteeing that the sterilization process takes place in a stable environment. It avoids poor sterilization results or safety accidents caused by structural instability. Furthermore, the reasonable layout and combination of the heating element with the inner liner and shell facilitates uniform heat transfer and efficient utilization, improving sterilization efficiency and energy utilization, reducing energy waste and equipment wear, and extending the service life of the equipment. This further demonstrates the importance of structural design in ensuring equipment performance. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 A vertical sterilizer that is easy to disassemble includes: a base 1, a cylindrical shell 2 fixedly connected to the base 1, a cap 3 located at the top of the cylindrical shell 2, handles 31 symmetrically provided on the side wall of the cap 3, an inner liner 4 inside the cylindrical shell 2, and an electric heating element 41 outside the inner liner 4; a convenient disassembly mechanism including two slots 5 symmetrically provided on the upper side wall of the inner liner 4, side tubes 51 on both upper side walls of the cylindrical shell 2, sliding rods 52 slidably connected in both side tubes 51, sliding rods 52 slidably connected inside both sliding rods 52, a clamp 53 fixedly connected to one end of each sliding rod 52, a back piece 54 installed and connected to the other end of each sliding rod 52, and a spring 55 sleeved on each sliding rod 52.

[0022] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, both card heads 53 are wedge-shaped designs.

[0023] It should be noted that when the side wall of the inner liner 4 moves to the point where the inclined surfaces of the two clips 53 abut against each other, the two clips 53 drive the two slide rods 52 to slide relative to the side tube 51, causing the two springs 55 to undergo elastic deformation.

[0024] When the side wall of the inner liner 4 moves to the point where the two slots 5 overlap, both springs 55 restore their elastic deformation, causing the two slide rods 52 to drive the two clips 53 to slide back into the two slots 5, thus quickly and easily completing the disassembly and installation of the vertical sterilizer.

[0025] refer to Figure 3 As shown, each of the two slide rods 52 is provided with a convex plate 56. The two convex plates 56 are respectively located inside the two side tubes 51. One end of each of the two springs 55 is connected to the two convex plates 56, and the other end of each of the two springs 55 is connected to the inner wall of the two side tubes 51.

[0026] It should be noted that the two convex discs 56 are respectively located inside the two side tubes 51, which can limit the movement range of the two sliding rods 52.

[0027] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the inner liner 4 has an inner diameter that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The upper side wall of the inner liner 4 is provided with side strips 6. The inner wall of the shell 2 is symmetrically provided with two positioning seats 61. The two side strips 6 are slidably connected to the two positioning seats 61 respectively.

[0028] It should be noted that: the inner liner 4 is placed inside the cylindrical shell 2, so that the side strips 6 on both sides of the upper end of the inner liner 4 are slidably inserted into the two positioning seats 61 respectively, thus completing the combination and placement of the inner liner 4.

[0029] The heating element 41 is then fitted onto the lower end of the inner liner 4, so that the heating element 41 and the inner liner 4 are assembled simultaneously.

[0030] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the heating element 41 abuts against the lower outer wall of the inner liner 4. Two bottom blocks 7 are symmetrically provided at the lower end of the heating element 41. Two bottom seats 71 are symmetrically provided on the lower shell wall of the cylinder shell 2. The two bottom blocks 7 are slidably connected to the two bottom seats 71 respectively.

[0031] It should be noted that the heating element 41 is placed directly inside the shell 2, so that the two bottom blocks 7 at the bottom position slide into the two bottom seats 71 respectively, thus completing the combination and placement of the heating element 41.

[0032] refer to Figure 2 As shown, a circular groove is provided at the bottom of the lower end of the shell 2.

[0033] It should be noted that the circular groove at the bottom of the lower end of the shell 2, in conjunction with the placement of the inner liner 4, can effectively further limit and secure the inner liner 4.

[0034] The working principle of the easily disassembled vertical sterilizer provided by this utility model is as follows: The heating element 41 is placed directly inside the cylindrical shell 2, so that the two bottom blocks 7 at its bottom position slide into the two bottom seats 71 respectively, completing the assembly placement of the heating element 41. Then, the inner liner 4 is placed inside the cylindrical shell 2, so that the side strips 6 on both sides of the upper end of the inner liner 4 slide into the two alignment seats 61 respectively, completing the assembly placement of the inner liner 4. The heating element 41 is then fitted onto the lower end of the inner liner 4, so that the heating element 41 and the inner liner 4 simultaneously complete the assembly placement. The combination allows for quick and easy installation of the sterilizer. When the side wall of the inner liner 4 moves to abut the inclined surfaces of the two clamps 53, the two clamps 53 drive the two slide rods 52 to slide relative to the side tube 51, causing the two springs 55 to undergo elastic deformation. When the side wall of the inner liner 4 moves to overlap the two slots 5, the two springs 55 return to their elastic deformation, allowing the two slide rods 52 to drive the two clamps 53 to slide back into the two slots 5. This allows for quick and easy disassembly and installation of the vertical sterilizer, facilitating its maintenance and repair.

[0035] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
