[0024] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0025] The following disclosure provides many different implementation methods or examples for different solutions to implement this utility model.
[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a dual-system fogging machine includes a base 1. The base 1 is equipped with a heating element 2, a first oil supply unit 3, and a second oil supply unit 4. The first oil supply unit 3 includes an air pump 31 and an oil pump 32. The air pump 31 is connected to the heating element 2 through a first pipe 33. A second pipe 34 is connected to the first pipe 33. The oil pump 32 is installed on the second pipe 34. The second pipe 34 is used to connect to an external oil tank storing water-based fogging oil. The oil pump 32 delivers the oil fog to the heating element 2.
[0027] The second oil supply unit 4 includes a first solenoid valve 41, a second solenoid valve 42, and a built-in oil tank 43. The built-in oil tank 43 is used to store oily mist oil. The built-in oil tank 43 is connected to an external gas cylinder through a third pipe 44. The heating component 2 is connected to the built-in oil tank 43 through a fourth pipe 45. The first solenoid valve 41 is installed on the third pipe 44. The fourth pipe 45 is connected to an external gas cylinder through a fifth pipe 46. The second solenoid valve 42 is installed on the fifth pipe 46.
[0028] The output end of the air pump 31 is provided with a first pneumatic check valve 35; the fourth pipeline 45 is provided with a check valve 451 and a two-fluid structure 452 in sequence along its conveying direction; the built-in oil tank 43 is connected to the two-fluid structure 452 through the sixth pipeline 47 to deliver gas to the two-fluid structure 452; the sixth pipeline 47 is provided with a second pneumatic check valve 471; the fifth pipeline 46 is provided with a third pneumatic check valve 461, which is located between the second solenoid valve 42 and the fourth pipeline 45;
[0029] There are two misting systems. When water-based mist oil is needed, the first solenoid valve 41 and the second solenoid valve 42 are closed, and the air pump 31 and the oil pump 32 are started. The oil pump 32 draws water-based mist oil from the external oil tank and delivers it to the first pipeline 33. Because a first pneumatic check valve 35 is provided, the mist oil will not flow to the air pump 31, but will only flow to the heating component 2. The heating component 2 heats the mist oil to form smoke. The air pump 31 starts to deliver gas. The gas is delivered unidirectionally to the heating component 2, thereby causing the smoke to be sprayed out from the heating component 2.
[0030] When oily mist is needed, air pump 31 and oil pump 32 are shut off, and the first solenoid valve 41 and the second solenoid valve 42 are activated. Gas supplied by an external gas cylinder is delivered to the built-in oil tank 43 via the third pipeline 44. Under pressure, the oily mist in the built-in oil tank 43 enters the fourth pipeline 45 and can flow through the two-fluid structure 452. The gas in the built-in oil tank 43 enters the two-fluid structure 452 via the sixth pipeline 47, causing the mist to atomize. The atomized mist then enters the heating element 2 along the fourth pipeline 45. The heating element 2 heats the mist to form smoke. Gas supplied by an external gas cylinder enters the fourth pipeline 45 via the fifth pipeline 46, causing the smoke to be ejected from the heating element 2. In this way, the misting system can be replaced according to actual needs, making the entire device more flexible.
[0031] During this process, the check valve 451 prevents the mist oil from returning to the built-in oil tank 43. A third check valve is provided to prevent the gas in the fifth pipeline 46 from returning to the external gas cylinder. A second check valve is provided to prevent the gas from returning to the built-in oil tank 43 from the sixth pipeline 47.
[0032] In this embodiment, a proportional valve 441 and an oil-water separator 442 are sequentially provided on the third pipeline 44 along its conveying direction. The proportional valve 441 can regulate the gas flow rate and pressure input from the external gas cylinder into the third pipeline 44, while the oil-water separator 442 can prevent water from entering the built-in oil tank 43.
[0033] In this embodiment, the two-fluid structure 452 is generally a two-fluid nozzle, which can atomize liquid and gas after they are input into the nozzle.
[0034] In this embodiment, a pressure relief valve 443 is connected to the oil-water separator 442. If the pressure is too high, it can be relieved through the pressure relief valve 443.
[0035] In this embodiment, the heating component 2 includes a heating aluminum box, which has two input pipes. The first pipe 33 and the fourth pipe 45 are respectively connected to the two input pipes and are equipped with heating rods. The part of the input pipe inside the heating aluminum box cooperates with the heating rods so that the heating rods can heat the mist oil. The heating aluminum box has a mist outlet for outputting smoke.
[0036] Meanwhile, a temperature sensor is installed to monitor the temperature of the heating rod for easy control.
[0037] In this embodiment, a fan 5 is provided on the outside of the base 1. The fan 5 is connected to the mist outlet of the heated aluminum box to diffuse the smoke. The fan 5 can swing up and down to adjust the blowing direction and control the smoke to diffuse in different directions.
[0038] In this embodiment, a controller is also included. The oil pump 32, air pump 31, solenoid valve, pressure relief valve 443, proportional valve 441, heating rod, temperature sensor and fan 5 are all connected to the controller, so that the controller can monitor and control each component.
[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
