TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of waste heat recovery, especially to the composite direct heating type heat exchange device suitable for air compressor oil waste heat recovery. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the operation process of the air compressor, its oil will inevitably absorb a large amount of compression heat, and then be converted into high-temperature oil. In order to effectively utilize this part of heat energy, the high-temperature oil is usually introduced into the composite direct heating type heat exchange device through the pipeline, and exchanges heat with the circulating water or other heat exchange medium, so as to transfer the heat to the heat exchange medium. The heat exchange medium with increased temperature can be used for heating, hot water supply and other scenes, and the cooled oil returns to the air compressor to continue participating in the compression process.
[0003] For example, the high-efficiency waste heat recovery system of the air compressor disclosed in the prior art with the publication number CN108088281A injects high-temperature air compressor oil into the waste heat recovery tank, and then uses the water pipe connected by multiple spherical pipes to improve the contact effect of the heat exchange medium and the high-temperature air compressor oil. Although this can enhance the heat exchange effect, the high-temperature air compressor oil flows irregularly in the tank, which makes it difficult for part of the air compressor oil to contact and exchange heat with the water pipe for a long time, so that it is discharged from the tank in a short time, thereby making it difficult to further achieve efficient heat exchange effect.
[0004] In view of the above technical defects, a solution is proposed. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

Then, combined with the flow path of the high-temperature air compressor oil from inside to outside and the heat exchange medium from outside to inside, the heat exchange medium is subjected to full-range temperature rising heat exchange treatment, and further efficient heat exchange treatment is achieved.
[0006] The following technical solutions are used:

A heat transfer barrier sleeve is fixedly connected inside the cylinder between the upper and lower retaining rings, and multiple heat transfer blocks are provided on the heat transfer barrier sleeve. A second liquid inlet pipe is installed on the upper cover, and a first liquid inlet pipe and a second liquid outlet pipe are installed on the lower cover. A first liquid outlet pipe is installed on the top of one side of the cylinder.
[0008] Preferably, the top of the lower cover is fixedly installed with multiple connecting posts, and the upper cover is installed with a screw rod that is threadedly connected to the corresponding connecting post. Both the upper cover and the lower cover are provided with mounting grooves that are adapted to the cylinder.
[0009] Preferably, the first liquid inlet pipe is connected to the inner lower baffle ring, and the first liquid outlet pipe is located below the connection between the cylinder and the heat transfer barrier sleeve.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the heat transfer barrier sleeve is provided with a through groove through which the second liquid supply pipe passes, and a limiting ring that abuts against the heat transfer barrier sleeve is fixedly connected to the second liquid supply pipe. The top of the heat transfer barrier sleeve is fixedly connected with a plurality of limiting posts that abut against the upper cover, and the second liquid supply pipe is located outside the outer upper retaining ring.
[0011] Preferably, sealing gaskets are installed inside the mounting groove and on the limiting ring.
[0012] Preferably, a docking block is fixedly connected to the connecting column, and a docking seat that engages with the corresponding docking block is fixedly connected to the cylinder.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] This invention firstly, through the combined action of the upper baffle ring, the heat transfer barrier sleeve, and the lower baffle ring, maximizes the flow time of the high-temperature air compressor oil and the heat exchange medium within the cylinder, thereby improving the efficiency of direct-heating waste heat recovery of the high-temperature air compressor oil. Secondly, by combining the flow path of the high-temperature air compressor oil from the inside out with the flow path of the heat exchange medium from the outside in, it achieves full-process heating heat exchange treatment for the heat exchange medium, avoiding the problem of the heat exchange medium cooling down before exiting the cylinder and affecting the heat exchange effect. Furthermore, by disassembling the cylinder and the cover, the upper baffle ring, the heat transfer barrier sleeve, and the lower baffle ring can be separated, facilitating cleaning of the inside of the device and ensuring high heat exchange efficiency.
