[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present utility model and not for limiting it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts related to the present utility model are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0020] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The nitrogen compressor thermal energy utilization device of this utility model includes a housing 1, a nitrogen compressor 2, a displacement assembly 3, a cooling section 31, a heat exchange section 32, and a water storage tank 4.

[0022] The housing 1 is placed vertically on the ground. The nitrogen compressor 2 is installed inside the housing 1. The displacement assembly 3 is installed on one side of the housing 1. The cooling unit 31 is installed at one end of the nitrogen compressor 2. The heat exchange unit 32 is installed on one side of the housing 1. The water storage tank 4 is placed vertically on the ground and is connected to the displacement assembly 3.

[0023] Among them, the housing 1 is mainly responsible for protecting the nitrogen compressor 2 from external factors and providing a safe and reliable working environment for the nitrogen compressor 2;

[0024] Meanwhile, the cooling section 31 in the replacement component 3 is mainly responsible for cooling down the nitrogen compressor 2, so that the nitrogen compressor 2 always maintains a high-efficiency and stable working state. After the cooling section 31 is cooled, the coolant and the water in the water tank 4 flow into the heat exchange section 32 at the same time. The heat exchange section 32 replaces the temperature of the high-temperature coolant with the low-temperature water in the water tank 4. After the replacement, the low-temperature coolant flows back to the cooling section 31, and the high-temperature water flows back to the water tank 4.

[0025] Furthermore, the heat exchange section 32 enables the coolant and water in the water tank 4 to achieve both cooling and heating, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the coolant and increasing the utilization rate of the heat discharged by the nitrogen compressor.

[0026] In this embodiment, multiple protective plates 321 are placed vertically on the ground, located on one side of the housing 1, and gaps are provided between the multiple protective plates 321. A sliding rod 322 passes through the bottom end of the multiple protective plates 321, a heat exchange module 323 is slidably mounted on the sliding rod 322, and a positioning module 324 is installed on one of the multiple protective plates 321.

[0027] Among them, the two protection plates 321 mainly serve a protective function, the heat exchange module 323 is installed between the two protection plates 321, and one of the protection plates 321 has four holes, two of which are used to allow the coolant to flow in and out of the cooling section 31, and two of which are used to allow the water to flow in and out of the water storage tank 4.

[0028] Meanwhile, the heat exchange module 323 is slidably mounted on the slide rod 322, allowing the heat exchange module 323 to slide freely on the slide rod 322. The positioning module 324 is mainly responsible for aligning and fixing the holes on the heat exchange module 323 and the holes on the protection plate 321 after the heat exchange module 323 is installed on the slide rod 322, thereby realizing the flow of coolant and water between multiple holes.

[0029] In this embodiment, a plurality of circular clips 3232 correspond one-to-one with a plurality of heat exchange plates 3231. The circular clips 3232 are installed at the bottom end of the heat exchange plates 3231, and the plurality of circular clips 3232 are slidably disposed on the slide rod 322. A plurality of fixing slot groups 3233 correspond one-to-one with a plurality of heat exchange plates 3231. Each fixing slot group 3233 has two fixing slots, and the two fixing slots are respectively installed on both sides of the heat exchange plate 3231. A plurality of handles 3234 correspond one-to-one with a plurality of heat exchange plates 3231, and the handles 3234 are installed at the top end of the heat exchange plates 3231.

[0030] The heat exchange plate 3231 has four holes that are coaxially corresponding to the four holes on one of the protection plates 321.

[0031] Meanwhile, when installing or removing the heat exchange plate 3231, simply pull the handle 3234 upward or push it downward manually, and the force will drive the heat exchange plate 3231 to move in the direction of the force. At this time, the circular clip 3232 installed at the bottom of the heat exchange plate 3231 can be easily engaged or disengaged.

[0032] Furthermore, both contact surfaces of the circular clip 3232 and the slide bar 322 are provided with rounded corners. As long as the connection receives an upward pulling force and a downward pushing force, it can be fitted and disengaged on the slide bar 322, thereby achieving the purpose of installing the heat exchange plate 3231 on the slide bar 322.

[0033] Furthermore, fixing slots 3233 are installed on both sides of the heat exchange plate 3231. After the heat exchange plate 3231 is installed on the slide rod 322, the fixing is not yet secure. The fixing slots 3233 and the positioning module 324 need to work together to fix the position of the heat exchange plate 3231.

[0034] In this embodiment, the main shaft 3241 is mounted on the protective plate 321, and a plurality of positioning shafts 3242 are slidably disposed on the protective plate 321, with the plurality of positioning shafts 3242 located on both sides of the main shaft 3241. The first gear 3243 is mounted on the main shaft 3241, and a plurality of second gears 3244 correspond one-to-one with the plurality of positioning shafts 3242. The second gears 3244 are mounted on the positioning shafts 3242, and a plurality of racks 3245 are meshed between the first gear 3243 and the plurality of second gears 3244. The rotating handle 3246 is mounted on the main shaft.

[0035] Among them, after the heat exchange plate 3231 is installed on the slide bar 322, the heat exchange plate 3231 is still not aligned with the holes and is not fixed securely. At this time, the positioning module 324 is required to limit the heat exchange plate 3231.

[0036] Simultaneously, during limit constraint, the handrail 3246 needs to be manually rotated, causing the main shaft 3241 connected to the handrail 3246 to rotate simultaneously. At this time, the main shaft 3241 drives the first gear 3243 to rotate, and the two racks 3245 meshing with the first gear 3243 also rotate accordingly. Subsequently, the two racks 3245 drive the two second gears 3244 meshing with them to rotate, and the two second gears 3244 drive the two positioning shafts 3242 that cooperate with them to rotate, rotating the handrail clockwise. Handle 3246, with two positioning shafts 3242 moving closer to the main shaft 3241, rotates handle 3246 counterclockwise, and the two positioning shafts 3242 move away from the main shaft 3241. When it is necessary to position the heat exchange plate 3231, rotate handle 3246 clockwise. When handle 3246 is in contact with the fixing groove group 3233, the positioning is completed. Conversely, when it is necessary to remove the heat exchange plate 3231, rotate handle 3246 counterclockwise, thereby realizing the positioning and fixing of the heat exchange plate 3231.

[0037] In this embodiment, the support frame 311 is installed inside the housing 1, the cooling sleeve 312 is installed on the top of the support frame 311 and is fitted onto the nitrogen compressor 2, a plurality of cooling pipes 313 are installed on the top of the cooling sleeve 312, the coolant tank 314 is installed on the top of the plurality of cooling pipes 313, one end of the first water pipe 315 extends into the coolant tank 314 and the other end extends into the heat exchange section 32, one end of the second water pipe 316 extends into the cooling sleeve 312 and the other end extends into the heat exchange section 32.

[0038] Among them, the support frame 311 mainly plays a supporting role and is responsible for providing a stable working environment;

[0039] Meanwhile, the cooling jacket 312 is fitted onto the nitrogen compressor 2. The coolant flows out from the coolant tank 314 and then flows into the cooling jacket 312 through multiple cooling pipes 313. The coolant can cool the heat-generating parts of the nitrogen compressor 2 more evenly through multiple cooling pipes 313, thereby achieving a better cooling effect.

[0040] Furthermore, after the coolant cools the nitrogen compressor 2, the coolant is in a high-temperature state and flows from the cooling jacket 312 into the heat exchange section 32 through the second water pipe 316 for heat exchange. After the coolant completes the heat exchange, the coolant is in a low-temperature state and flows from the heat exchange section 32 into the coolant tank 314 through the first water pipe 315, thereby realizing the circulation of the coolant and improving the utilization rate of the coolant.

[0041] In summary, the nitrogen compressor heat energy utilization device of this utility model ensures that heat does not accumulate during the air compression process through the design of each structure, and that the heat is not directly discharged as waste after being replaced but is reused. Furthermore, the quick-disassembly heat exchange module ensures that the heat exchange plate is replaced simply, quickly, and efficiently, further guaranteeing the high working efficiency of the overall nitrogen compressor heat energy utilization device.

[0042] 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 description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
