The suction pipe 32 is connected to the material outlet of the amide dehydration tank 9.

[0020] Working principle: When using this utility model, first check whether each reaction device and instrument is in the position of the protective shell 1 when it left the factory. Then check whether the first electronic valve 7, the second electronic valve 29, the third electronic valve 16, the fourth electronic valve 19, the fifth electronic valve 27 and the sixth electronic valve 26 are set according to the parameters of the corresponding solvent, and whether their corresponding input and output terminals are connected and sealed without leakage. In particular, it is necessary to check whether the gear pump 11 and the Roots pump 22 connected to the second electronic valve 29 and the fifth electronic valve 27 are sealed without leakage. Finally, check whether the Roots pump 22 is fixed to the bottom surface of the inner end of the protective shell 1, and whether the gear pump 11 is fixed by the fixing platform 10 and the strap 12 without loosening.

[0021] After the inspection is completed, experimental preparation can begin. Cyanacetamide and N-methyl-N-phenylacetamide are introduced into their respective feed ports: cyanacetamide feed port 2 and N-methyl-N-phenylacetamide feed port 3. The reaction is driven by the first reaction motor 5. The intermediate N-methyl-N-phenylacetamide cyanacetamide flows through the first electronic valve 7. The dehydrated reactant reacts with the reactant through the material inlet 8, then passes through the suction pipe 32 at the bottom, through the second electronic valve 29, and then through the gear pump 11 to the reaction tank 15. Hydrogen is introduced through the hydrogen feed port 14 to react with the intermediate, generating the intermediate N-methyl-N-phenyl-N-cyanoacetamide. This intermediate then passes through the third electronic valve 16 to the sulfurization reactor 18. Benzenesulfonic acid is introduced through the benzenesulfonic acid feed port 17 and reacts with the intermediate... The intermediate reacts to form N-methyl-N-phenyl-N-cyanoacetamide benzenesulfonate, which then reaches the oxidation reactor 21 through the fourth electronic valve 19. High-concentration oxygen is introduced through the oxygen inlet 20 to react with the intermediate. The oxidized intermediate is then sent to the cyclization reaction chamber 24 through the fifth electronic valve 27 and the Roots pump 22. The reactant is introduced through the reactant opening 25 to cyclize with the intermediate. Finally, the substance generated in the cyclization reaction chamber 24 is paclobutrazol. The paclobutrazol is then discharged through the sixth electronic valve 26. After the experiment, cleaning the instrument only requires pouring a large amount of water into the cyanoacetamide inlet 2, the N-methyl-N-phenylacetamide inlet 3, and the vent 4, and running the gear pump 11 and the Roots pump 22. After cleaning, the equipment is placed in a dry place and the inlet is covered.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present utility model, should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
