Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of steam-water separators, and in particular to a steam-water separator for an air compressor. Background Technology

[0002] Steam-water separators are generally divided into baffle type and cyclone type. Currently, when the liquid inside the separation tank of a cyclone type steam-water separator is too much during use, it needs to be discharged. However, gas leakage occurs during the discharge process, resulting in waste. If the gas delivery is stopped first and then discharged, the steam-water separation efficiency of the air compressor will be affected.

[0003] CN222384384U discloses an air compressor steam-water separation device, comprising a first separation tank and a second separation tank distributed vertically. The second separation tank has a blocking structure inside, a first float ball at the bottom of its inner wall, and a mounting ring slidably connected to the top of the second separation tank. A first circular tube is fixedly installed inside the mounting ring, and a vertically oriented through hole is formed on the outer wall of the first circular tube. This invention, through its blocking structure design, allows the second float ball to be raised by the buoyancy of the liquid inside the first funnel tube during use. When the buoyancy of the liquid inside the first funnel tube is sufficient to lift the second float ball, the connecting rod moves the sealing ring upwards to block the second funnel tube. At this time, the liquid inside the first funnel tube flows to the second funnel tube. When the return force of the pressure spring is greater than the buoyancy of the second float ball, it causes the second float ball to re-block the first funnel tube, opening the second funnel tube. The liquid inside the second funnel tube flows to the first float ball, lifting it to drain the liquid, thus reducing the waste caused by gas leakage during the draining process.

[0004] The aforementioned patent utilizes the buoyancy of the liquid in the second separation tank to lift the first float, facilitating the liquid delivery to the second funnel tube. Subsequently, a spring rebound is used to deliver water to the first float, reducing gas leakage during the liquid discharge process of the separator during vapor-liquid separation. However, when gas is introduced into the second separation tank, the second float, being circular, is easily lifted by the airflow from its bottom, resulting in airflow leakage and waste after vapor-liquid separation. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an air compressor steam-water separation device to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] An air compressor steam-liquid separation device includes a steam-liquid separator, the bottom end of which is connected to a receiving funnel, the bottom end of which is connected to a filter channel, and a number of water filtration mechanisms are provided on the inner side wall of the filter channel.

[0008] The water filtration mechanism includes a slot, a disc, a central hole, and sealing cotton. The slot is opened on the outer periphery of the filtration channel. The disc is connected to the inner wall of the slot through a pressure relief component. The central hole is opened at the center of the disc's circular surface. The sealing cotton is fixedly connected inside the central hole. A sealing component is provided inside the filtration channel.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured as follows: the sealing component includes a float ball, the float ball is slidably connected to the filter channel, a sealing block is connected to the bottom of the filter channel, a sealing tube is slidably connected to the bottom of the sealing block, the top end of the sealing tube is connected to the float ball, and an input hole is provided on the side wall of the sealing tube.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: the pressure relief component includes a shrink ring, the shrink ring is fixedly connected to the slot, a spring is connected to the side of the shrink ring, and the end of the spring is connected to the circular surface of the disc.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: a storage bucket is connected to the bottom end of the filter channel, and an avoidance hole is provided in the middle of the top side of the storage bucket, the avoidance hole being used to avoid the sealing block and the sealing tube.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that the bottom side of the storage bucket is tapered, and a drain valve is connected to the bottom end of the storage bucket.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: a support rod is connected inside the filter channel, the end of the support rod is attached to the bottom of the float, and a gap is left between the outer wall of the float and the disc.

[0014] In summary, this utility model has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0015] 1. In operation, the air compressor steam-water separator uses a collection funnel to temporarily store liquid, which is then sealed with sealing cotton to prevent a large amount of airflow from rushing into the filter channel. The liquid saturates the sealing cotton in the central hole, further preventing air from rushing into the filter channel. As the liquid increases, it will permeate into the filter channel through the sealing cotton. The pressure relief device can quickly transport the accumulated liquid into the filter channel and re-seal it in time, thus avoiding the phenomenon of large amounts of air flowing out and causing waste.

[0016] 2. In this air compressor steam-water separation device, after the liquid enters the filter channel, it will be blocked by a blocking block to temporarily store the liquid. After the liquid level rises, the buoyancy of the liquid itself will drag the float ball to rise in the filter channel, thereby exposing the inlet hole on the side of the blocking tube inside the blocking block. Then, the liquid enters the blocking tube from the inlet hole and is discharged through the blocking tube. The blocking tube is dynamically sealed inside the blocking block to achieve the effect of steam-liquid separation and liquid discharge.

[0017] 3. In this air compressor steam-water separation device, the end of the spring is connected to the circular side of the disc. As the liquid level in the collection funnel increases, the water pressure at the slot increases, thereby using the water pressure to push the disc into the filter channel and stretch the spring, thus allowing the disc to release the blockage of the slot, allowing the liquid to have enough space to enter the filter channel. This achieves the goal of allowing the liquid in the collection funnel to quickly enter the filter channel for easy liquid transport. After the water pressure decreases, the spring retracts, causing the disc to return to its original position and re-block the slot, preventing airflow from entering the filter channel through the slot after the liquid level decreases.

[0018] 4. In this air compressor steam-water separator, the support rod is connected to the inner wall of the filter channel, and the end edge of the support rod is in contact with the float ball, lifting the float ball and preventing it from blocking the slot holes, making it difficult for liquid to enter the bottom of the filter channel, thus affecting the delivery of liquid. At the same time, there is a gap between the outer wall of the float ball and the disc, so as to prevent the disc from being resisted by the float ball when it moves, thus affecting the depressurization of the liquid in the collection funnel.

[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4 The air compressor steam-water separation device disclosed in this utility model includes a steam-liquid separator 1, a receiving funnel 2 connected to the bottom end of the steam-liquid separator 1, a filter channel 3 connected to the bottom end of the receiving funnel 2, and a number of water filtration mechanisms 4 provided on the inner side wall of the filter channel 3.

[0027] The water filtration mechanism 4 includes a slot 5, a disc 6, a central hole 7, and a sealing cotton 8. The slot 5 is opened on the outer periphery of the filter channel 3. The disc 6 is connected to the inner wall of the slot 5 through a pressure relief component 9. The central hole 7 is opened at the center of the disc 6's circular surface. The sealing cotton 8 is fixedly connected inside the central hole 7. A sealing component 10 is provided inside the filter channel 3.

[0028] In this embodiment, reference Figure 1 In the vapor-liquid separator 1, humidified air undergoes vapor-liquid separation. The liquid flows along the inner wall of the vapor-liquid separator 1 into the collection funnel 2. (Refer to...) Figure 4 Liquid will enter the slot 5, where the disc 6 is sealed with sealing cotton 8 to prevent a large amount of airflow from rushing into the filter channel 3. Subsequently, the liquid will soak the sealing cotton 8 in the central hole 7, further preventing air from rushing into the filter channel 3. As the liquid increases, the liquid will permeate into the filter channel 3 through the sealing cotton 8. If there is too much water, the water pressure at the slot 5 will increase, and the pressure relief component 9 will drive the disc 6 to move, allowing the liquid to quickly enter the filter channel 3 from the slot 5. After the liquid decreases, the water pressure at the slot 5 will drop, causing the pressure relief component 9 to drive the disc 6 back to its original position, thus preventing airflow from being injected into the filter channel 3 and causing waste.

[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, the sealing component 10 includes a float 11, which is slidably connected to the filter channel 3. A sealing block 12 is connected to the bottom of the filter channel 3. A sealing tube 13 is slidably connected to the bottom of the sealing block 12. The top end of the sealing tube 13 is connected to the float 11. An input hole 14 is provided on the side wall of the sealing tube 13.

[0030] In this embodiment, reference Figure 3 The sealing element 10 is used to temporarily store liquid after it enters the filter channel 3. When the liquid level rises, the float ball 11 will be dragged up in the filter channel 3 by the buoyancy of the liquid itself, thereby exposing the inlet hole 14 on the side of the sealing tube 13 inside the sealing block 12. Then, the liquid enters the sealing tube 13 from the inlet hole 14 and is discharged through the sealing tube 13. The sealing tube 13 is dynamically sealed inside the sealing block 12 to achieve the effect of vapor-liquid separation and liquid discharge.

[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the pressure relief component 9 includes a shrink ring 15, which is fixedly connected to the slot 5. A spring 16 is connected to the side of the shrink ring 15, and the end of the spring 16 is connected to the circular surface of the disc 6.

[0032] In this embodiment, reference Figure 4 The shrink ring 15 is fixedly connected to the slot 5, and a spring 16 is connected to the side of the shrink ring 15. The end of the spring 16 is connected to the circular side of the disc 6. As the liquid level in the collection funnel 2 increases, the water pressure at the slot 5 increases. This water pressure pushes the disc 6 into the filter channel 3 and stretches the spring 16, thereby releasing the disc 6 from blocking the slot 5. This allows the liquid to have enough space to enter the filter channel 3, enabling the liquid in the collection funnel 2 to quickly enter the filter channel 3 for easy liquid transport. After the water pressure decreases, the spring 16 retracts, causing the disc 6 to return to its original position and re-block the slot 5, preventing airflow from entering the filter channel 3 through the slot 5 after the liquid level decreases.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom end of the filter channel 3 is connected to a storage bucket 17, and the top side of the storage bucket 17 is provided with an avoidance hole 18, which is used to avoid the blocking block 12 and the blocking tube 13.

[0034] In this embodiment, reference Figure 1 The bottom of filter channel 3 is connected to storage bucket 17, for reference. Figure 3After the float 11 is lifted, the liquid enters the sealing tube 13 through the inlet 14, and then the sealing tube 13 transports the liquid to the storage tank 17 for storage. At the same time, the clearance hole 18 is used to avoid the sealing block 12 and the sealing tube 13, so as to facilitate the up and down movement of the sealing tube 13.

[0035] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the storage bucket 17 is tapered, and a drain valve 19 is connected to the bottom end of the storage bucket 17.

[0036] In this embodiment, reference Figure 1 The bottom of the storage bucket 17 is tapered, and the bottom of the storage bucket 17 is connected to a drain valve 19. After a certain amount of liquid is collected, the drain valve 19 is opened to drain the liquid in the storage bucket 17. The tapered bottom of the storage bucket 17 allows the liquid to flow directly out from the drain valve 19, reducing residue.

[0037] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, a support rod 20 is connected inside the filter channel 3. The end of the support rod 20 is attached to the bottom of the float 11, and a gap is left between the outer wall of the float 11 and the disc 6.

[0038] In this embodiment, reference Figure 3 The support rod 20 is connected to the inner wall of the filter channel 3, and the end edge of the support rod 20 is in contact with the float 11, lifting the float 11 and preventing the float 11 from blocking the slot hole 5, making it difficult for liquid to enter the bottom of the filter channel 3, thus affecting the delivery of liquid. At the same time, there is a gap between the outer wall of the float 11 and the disc 6 to prevent the disc 6 from being pushed by the float 11 when it moves, thus affecting the depressurization of the liquid in the collection funnel 2.

[0039] The implementation principle of the above embodiment is as follows: humid air is separated into vapor and liquid using a vapor-liquid separator 1, whereby the liquid flows along the inner wall of the vapor-liquid separator 1 into a receiving funnel 2. (Refer to...) Figure 4Liquid will enter the slot 5, where the disc 6 is sealed with sealing cotton 8 to prevent a large amount of airflow from rushing into the filter channel 3. Then, the sealing cotton 8 in the central hole 7 is soaked to further prevent air from rushing into the filter channel 3. As the liquid increases, the liquid will permeate into the filter channel 3 through the sealing cotton 8. If there is too much water, the water pressure at the slot 5 will increase, thereby using the water pressure to push the disc 6 into the filter channel 3 and stretch the spring 16, so that the disc 6 can release the seal on the slot 5, thus allowing the liquid to have enough space to enter the filter channel 3. This achieves the goal of allowing the liquid in the collection funnel 2 to quickly enter the filter channel 3. After the liquid decreases, the water pressure at the slot 5 drops, thereby causing the pressure relief component 9 to drive the disc 6 back to its position, thus preventing airflow from being injected into the filter channel 3 and causing waste.

[0040] The embodiments described herein are preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
