AI Technical Summary
In small gas-liquid separators, liquid does not easily accumulate, resulting in low separation efficiency. Furthermore, existing technologies often use a single tray or packing material, causing liquid to remain in the container for extended periods and making rapid collection impossible.
This multi-functional gas-liquid separator uses a support base and guide springs in conjunction with a guide cylinder for drive. The rebound force of the guide springs causes the separator body to vibrate up and down. Combined with the staggered distribution of irregularly shaped packing components and I-shaped seals, the liquid collection efficiency is increased. Furthermore, the gas pressure changes are adjusted through the irregularly shaped packing components to improve the gas-liquid separation efficiency.
It achieves rapid liquid collection and improved gas-liquid separation efficiency in small gas-liquid separators, with a simple structure that is easy to install and control.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas-liquid separator technology, and in particular to a multifunctional gas-liquid separator. Background Technology
[0002] Gas-liquid separators are used to separate gases and liquids in chemical production processes. Gas enters from the bottom of the separator and passes through internal packing, trays, and other structures for gas-liquid separation. The separated gas is discharged through the top outlet pipe, while the liquid accumulates on the surface of the packing or trays. For small gas-liquid separators, the amount of gas entering is limited, resulting in a smaller amount of liquid being separated. It is difficult to collect the liquid by gravity alone.
[0003] In existing technologies, after liquid separation in small gas-liquid separators, the liquid does not easily accumulate, causing the liquid to remain inside the separator body for a long time and cannot be collected quickly. Moreover, for gas-liquid separation, most of them use a single tray or packing, resulting in poor separation efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing small separators, such as the inability of liquid to accumulate inside and the limited separation types, by proposing a multifunctional gas-liquid separator.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a multifunctional gas-liquid separator, comprising a support base and a separator body, wherein the separator body is provided with a support base and a support sleeve at both ends respectively, and both ends of the separator body are provided with guide springs, the ends of which are connected to the interior of the support base and the support sleeve. A guide cylinder is bolted to the top of the support sleeve, and the movable end of the guide cylinder penetrates the surface of the support base and abuts against the top of the separator body. The separator body is provided with a shaped packing assembly, and a support frame is provided on the top surface of the support base, the top of which abuts against the bottom surface of the support sleeve.
[0006] Preferably, the irregular packing assembly includes a first packing and a second packing, the first packing and the second packing are staggered in the vertical direction, and an I-shaped seal is sleeved on the surface of the second packing, and the top and bottom surfaces of the I-shaped seal abut against the surface of the first packing.
[0007] Preferably, the radius of the first packing is the same as the diameter of the second packing, and the distribution density of the first packing is 1 / 2 of the distribution density of the second packing.
[0008] Preferably, the vertical centerline of the first packing material coincides with the vertical centerline of the second packing material, and at least two sets of the first packing material and the second packing material are provided.
[0009] Preferably, an air inlet pipe and a drain pipe are respectively provided on both sides of the separator body near the bottom surface, and an air outlet pipe is provided on the side of the separator body near the top surface. The side of the support base and the support sleeve are provided with guide pipe grooves, and the guide pipe grooves slide against the surfaces of the air inlet pipe, the air outlet pipe and the drain pipe.
[0010] Preferably, L-shaped positioning ears are circumferentially distributed at the top and bottom surfaces of the irregularly shaped packing assembly, and the edges of the L-shaped positioning ears are bolted to the inner wall of the separator body.
[0011] Preferably, the vertical centerline of the support base, the vertical centerline of the support sleeve, and the vertical centerline of the separator body all coincide with each other, and the support base and the support sleeve are the same size.
[0012] Beneficial effects
[0013] In this invention, the separator body is used in conjunction with the adjustable support base and support sleeve at both ends of the exterior, and the guide spring is used. Driven by the guide cylinder, the separator body shakes up and down using the rebound force of the guide spring, which facilitates the rapid shaking off of small droplets on the surface of the internal irregular packing assembly, so that they also accumulate on the bottom surface inside the separator body and are discharged through the drain pipe. Under the premise of achieving gas-liquid separation, this invention adds a functional structure to achieve rapid collection of liquid after gas-liquid separation.
[0014] In this invention, a non-circular packing assembly is installed inside the separator body. The first and second packings are staggered and different packing densities and sizes are set to contact the passing airflow. The pressure change between the first and second packings is regulated by the I-shaped seal, thereby repeatedly adjusting the pressure of the gas and increasing the contact time, thus improving the gas-liquid separation efficiency. The structure is simple, easy to install, and easy to control. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To make the technical means, creative features, and achieved objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. However, the following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments described in the implementation plan without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0022] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Specific Implementation Example 1:
[0024] Reference Figure 1-4 A multifunctional gas-liquid separator includes a support base 1 and a separator body 4. The separator body 4 has the support base 1 and support sleeve 2 respectively adjustable at both ends. Guide springs 10 are provided at both ends of the separator body 4, and the ends of the guide springs 10 are connected to the interior of the support base 1 and support sleeve 2. A guide cylinder 11 is bolted to the top of the support sleeve 2, and the movable end of the guide cylinder 11 penetrates the surface of the support base 1 and abuts against the top of the separator body 4. After gas-liquid separation occurs inside the separator body 4, to accelerate the rapid accumulation of liquid inside, the liquid can be released through the separator body 4. The separator is used in conjunction with the external support sleeve 2 and support base 1 for collection. Specifically, the extension of the movable end of the guide cylinder 11 drives the separator to move downward. Through the rapid extension and retraction of the movable end of the guide cylinder 11, the entire separator body 4 moves up and down. At the same time, the separator body 4 shakes up and down using the rebound force of the guide spring 10, which facilitates the rapid shaking off of small droplets on the surface of the internal irregular packing assembly 8, so that they also accumulate on the bottom surface inside the separator body 4 and are discharged through the drain pipe 7. Under the premise of achieving gas-liquid separation, this structure adds the function of rapid collection of liquid after gas-liquid separation.
[0025] To enhance rapid gas-liquid separation, a shaped packing assembly 8 is installed inside the separator body 4. A support frame 12 is provided on the top surface of the support base 1, with the top of the support frame 12 abutting against the bottom surface of the support sleeve 2. The shaped packing assembly includes a first packing 802 and a second packing 803, which are staggered vertically. An I-shaped seal 801 is fitted onto the surface of the second packing 803, with both the top and bottom surfaces of the I-shaped seal 801 abutting against the surface of the first packing 802. The first packing 802 and the second packing 803 are staggered, with the radius of the first packing 802 being the same as the diameter of the second packing 803. The distribution density of packing 2 is half that of the distribution density of the second packing 803. Different packing densities and sizes are set to contact the passing airflow. Through the action of the I-shaped seal 801, the pressure change that occurs between the first packing 802 and the second packing 803 when the gas flows is regulated, thereby repeatedly adjusting the pressure of the gas passing through and increasing the contact time, thereby improving the gas-liquid separation efficiency. The structure is simple, easy to install, and easy to control. The vertical center line of the first packing 802 coincides with the vertical center line of the second packing 803. At least two sets of the first packing 802 and the second packing 803 are provided to increase the gas contact range and improve the gas-liquid distribution efficiency.
[0026] To increase the compatibility between the separator body 4 and the support base 1 and support sleeve 2, an air inlet pipe 5 and a drain pipe 7 are respectively provided on both sides of the separator body 4 near the bottom surface, and an air outlet pipe 6 is provided on the side of the separator body 4 near the top surface. The support base 1 and support sleeve 2 are both provided with guide pipe grooves 3 on their sides, and the guide pipe grooves 3 slide against the surfaces of the air inlet pipe 5, the air outlet pipe 6 and the drain pipe 7. When the separator body 4 moves up and down, the drain pipe 7, the air inlet pipe 5 and the exhaust pipe move up and down along the position of the guide pipe groove 3. The length of the guide pipe groove 3 is close to the height position of the support base 1, which meets the vertical height requirements when the entire separator body 4 moves.
[0027] Other limiting structures of the entire device are as follows: L-shaped positioning ears 9 are circumferentially distributed at the top and bottom surfaces of the irregular packing assembly 8, and the edges of the L-shaped positioning ears 9 are bolted to the inner wall of the separator body 4, which facilitates the support and positioning of the irregular packing assembly 8. The vertical center line of the support base 1, the vertical center line of the support sleeve 2 and the vertical center line of the separator body 4 all coincide with each other, and the support base 1 and the support sleeve 2 are the same size. Specific Implementation Example 2:
[0029] Reference Figure 1-4 To increase the overall support force on the separator body 4, the guide spring inside the support base 1 can be replaced with a guide cylinder 11. That is, two sets of cylinders are connected at both ends of the separator body 4. Through the extension and retraction of the two sets of guide cylinders 11, the separator body 4 is driven to move up and down, thereby causing the small droplets accumulated on the surface of the irregular packing assembly 8 inside to fall and accumulate. Specific Implementation Example 3
[0031] Reference Figure 1-4 In actual use, the first packing 802 and the second packing 803 can be made of different materials and have different densities, or they can be made of the same material but with different densities, or different materials with the same density. As long as the first packing 802 and the second packing 803 have different processing efficiencies for gas-liquid separation, the materials and densities of the first packing 802 and the second packing 803 can be set according to the existing chemical packing structures.
[0032] In summary:
[0033] 1. The separator body 4 is used with the external two ends of the adjustable support base 1 and support sleeve 2 in conjunction with the guide spring 10. Driven by the guide cylinder 11, the separator body 4 shakes up and down with the rebound force of the guide spring 10, which facilitates the rapid shaking off of small droplets on the surface of the internal irregular packing assembly 8, so that they are also low-gathered on the bottom surface inside the separator body 4 and discharged through the drain pipe 7. Under the premise of achieving gas-liquid separation, the function structure of rapid collection of liquid after gas-liquid separation is added.
[0034] 2. The separator body 4 is equipped with a non-circular packing assembly 8. The first packing 802 and the second packing 803 are staggered and set with different packing densities and sizes to contact the passing airflow. The I-shaped seal 801 regulates the pressure change that occurs between the first packing 802 and the second packing 803 when the gas flows, thereby repeatedly regulating the pressure of the gas and increasing the contact time, thus improving the gas-liquid separation efficiency. The structure is simple, easy to install and easy to control.
