Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of symmetrical plate heat exchangers, and more specifically, it relates to a symmetrical plate heat exchanger. Background Technology

[0002] A plate heat exchanger is a high-efficiency heat exchanger consisting of a series of metal plates with a certain corrugated shape stacked together. Thin rectangular channels are formed between the various plates, and heat exchange occurs through the plates. Plate heat exchangers are ideal equipment for liquid-liquid and liquid-vapor heat exchange.

[0003] Based on the above, the inventors have discovered the following problems: the current method of manually adjusting the intermediate regulating plate of the symmetrical plate heat exchanger has many shortcomings. The adjustment force is not easy to control. When the force is too large, the plate is prone to deformation. When the force is too small, the heat exchange liquid is prone to leakage, which will affect the operating efficiency of the heat exchanger and may also threaten its long-term stability, thus affecting the use effect of the device.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and its shortcomings, and provided a symmetrical plate heat exchanger in order to achieve a more practical value. Utility Model Content

[0013] Furthermore, a threaded hole is provided at the middle position of the plate and the movable clamping plate, and the threaded hole matches the threaded rod.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
