[0011] In one possible implementation, there are multiple limiting member groups, and the multiple limiting members in the limiting member groups are arranged vertically; the heating element is installed on the limiting members in the multiple limiting member groups.

[0012] In one possible implementation, there are multiple limiting member groups, and the multiple limiting members in the limiting member groups are arranged in a spiral; the heating element is mounted on the limiting members in the multiple limiting member groups.

[0013] In one possible implementation, the outer sleeve, the combined sleeve, and the bypass sleeve are all made of thermal insulation material.

[0014] In one possible implementation, an annular groove is formed on the lower outer wall of the outer sleeve, and an annular protrusion is formed on the upper inner wall of the combined sleeve to match the annular groove.

[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 8The present invention provides a protective structure for the external pipeline of an absorption tower. The protective structure includes an outer sleeve 10, a connecting sleeve 20, a bypass sleeve 30, a set of limiting components 40, and a heating element 50. Two outer sleeves 10 are provided, each fitted onto one of the two outer pipelines 60. The outer sleeves 10 are arranged along the corresponding outer pipelines 60. The connecting sleeve 20 is vertically arranged and fitted onto the two outer pipelines 60. The upper end of the connecting sleeve 20 is connected and fixed to the lower ends of the two outer sleeves 10. A connecting hole 21 is provided on the wall of the connecting sleeve 20. The bypass sleeve 30 is fixedly installed on... The outer wall of the combined sleeve 20 is used to mount the instrument 61 on the outer pipe 60; the bypass sleeve 30 is provided with a through hole 31 for connecting to the instrument 61; the set of limiting members 40 is installed inside the combined sleeve 20 and is located between the inner wall of the combined sleeve 20 and the outer wall of the outer pipe 60; the limiting member 40 is provided with a limiting hole 41; the heating element 50 is installed in the combined sleeve 20 and is arranged along the length of the combined sleeve 20; the heating element 50 passes through multiple limiting holes 41 and its end passes through the connecting hole 21 to connect to the power supply.

[0036] The absorption tower external pipeline protection structure provided by this utility model, compared with the prior art, can effectively protect the external pipeline 60 and the instrument 61. Multiple limiting members 40 arranged on the inner wall of the combined sleeve 20 ensure that the heating element 50 is stably positioned between the external pipeline 60 and the combined sleeve 20, and the heating element 50 is connected to an external power source through the connection hole 21 on the combined sleeve 20. The wiring connected to the instrument 61 passes through the wiring hole 31 on the bypass sleeve 30 to connect to the instrument 61, facilitating control of the instrument 61. When the external pipeline 60 is in a low-temperature environment, the heating element 50 starts working, and the heat it generates is transferred to the external pipeline 60, preventing the external pipeline 60 from freezing or being damaged due to low temperatures, thus ensuring the normal operation of the external pipeline 60. Simultaneously, since the two outer sleeves 10, the two bypass sleeves 30, and the combined sleeve 20 are connected, the heat energy inside the combined sleeve 20 also enters the outer sleeves 10 and the bypass sleeves 30, effectively preventing the two outer pipes 60 as a whole and the two instruments 61 from freezing.

The length of the support plate is moderate, less than the distance between the outer pipeline 60 and the combined sleeve 20, which can effectively limit the internal structure of the combined sleeve 20. The support plate is horizontally arranged, with one end fixed to the inner wall of the combined sleeve 20 to ensure that it will not easily loosen or detach during use; the other end extends towards the outer pipeline 60 and has a limiting hole 41. When installing the heating element 50, the heating element 50 extends along the arrangement direction of the multiple limiting members 40 in the group of limiting members 40, and the heating element 50 passes through the limiting holes 41 on the multiple limiting members 40 to ensure that the heating element 50 works stably and reliably.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 6 In one specific embodiment of the absorption tower external pipeline protection structure provided by this utility model, there are multiple sets of limiting members 40, and the multiple limiting members 40 in the sets of limiting members 40 are arranged vertically; the heating element 50 is installed on the limiting members 40 in the multiple sets of limiting members 40; the multiple sets of limiting members 40 are evenly distributed in the combined sleeve 20, and together provide stable limiting support for the heating element 50. In this way, a relatively long heating element 50 can be arranged in the combined sleeve 20, thereby rapidly and uniformly heating the external pipeline 60 inside the combined sleeve 20.

Simultaneously, the gasket at the connection between the straight pipe section 12 and the bend section 13 provides good sealing. The gasket is made of high-temperature resistant rubber, effectively preventing heat leakage between the straight pipe section 12 and the bend section 13. When the outer casing 10 is installed with the outer pipeline 60, the gasket fits tightly against the connection between the straight pipe section 12 and the bend section 13, providing a reliable seal.

Therefore, when arranging the heating elements 50, the length of the heating elements 50 is increased, so that the heating elements 50 enter the outer sleeve 10 and are located in the distance between the outer sleeve 10 and the outer pipeline 60, thereby heating the entire outer pipeline 60. Specifically, two sets of limiting members 40 are symmetrically arranged inside the outer sleeve 10. A temperature sensor is also provided on the outer wall of the outer sleeve 10 for real-time monitoring of temperature changes around the outer sleeve 10 and the heating elements 50.
