Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the heating device provided in Embodiment 1 of this utility model.
[0032] Example 1
[0033] Existing air heaters and other heating devices work by using steam to heat the air inside the plates, which in turn heats the air passing through the plates. This structure and heating method result in the air not being preheated, leading to low inlet air temperature, a large amount of steam required, significant steam waste, high energy loss, and high cost.
[0034] In view of this, the present invention provides a heating device, comprising: a heat exchanger 100, wherein the heat exchanger 100 is provided with heating elements, the heating elements contain water for heat exchange, the heat exchanger 100 has an air inlet at the top and an air outlet at the bottom; the heat exchanger 100 is a closed structure with heating elements inside, and water is used as the heat exchange medium inside the heating elements. An exhaust fan 200 is provided, the exhaust fan 200 has an exhaust port connected to the air inlet; hot air discharged from the exhaust fan 200 enters the air inlet at the top of the heat exchanger 100 from the exhaust port, and the hot air heats the water inside the heating elements as it flows through the heat exchanger 100, and finally exits from the air outlet at the bottom of the heat exchanger 100. The heater 300 is equipped with a heating element for heating flowing air. The heater 300 is connected to the heat exchanger 100 through a circulation pipe 400. The heater 300 can receive water flowing out of the heat exchanger 100 after heat exchange is completed. The water preheats the flowing air in the heater 300 and then flows back to the heating element through the circulation pipe 400. The water in the heat exchanger 100 after being heated by hot air flows into the heater 300 through the circulation pipe 400. After entering the heater 300, the water preheats the flowing air, and the heating element heats the flowing air.
[0035] It should be noted that the hot air discharged by the exhaust fan 200 comes from the exhaust gas generated by the working mechanism. The working mechanism here can be any mechanical structure or device used in the industrial production process, or it can be a mechanical system composed of multiple mechanical structures or devices. There are no restrictions here.
[0036] The heating device recovers the heat energy of the exhaust air from the exhaust fan 200 and exchanges energy with the water in the heat exchanger 100. After the heat exchange is completed, the hot water flows into the heater 300, which can be used to preheat the air flowing through the heater 300, effectively increasing the air inlet temperature, saving steam, saving energy and reducing costs.
[0037] In an optional embodiment, the heater 300 is connected to an air intake fan 310, which is used to deliver flowing air to the heater 300.
[0038] Please see Figure 1 The air outlet of the air inlet fan 310 is positioned facing the heater 300. The air inlet fan 310 can provide air delivery force, so that the flowing air can be delivered into the heater 300.
[0039] In an optional embodiment, the circulation pipeline 400 is equipped with a circulation pump 410, which is used to transport the water flowing out of the heat exchanger 100 after heat exchange is completed to the heater 300.
[0040] Please see Figure 1A circulation pump 410 is installed outside the heat exchanger 100 to provide power, ensuring that the hot water after heat exchange can flow into the heater 300. The hot water preheats the flowing air in the heater 300 and then flows back to the heat exchanger 100 through the circulation pipe 400.
[0041] In an optional embodiment, both the outlet end of the heat exchanger 100 and the inlet end of the heater 300 are equipped with a hand valve 420 for opening or closing the water flow in the circulation pipe 400.
[0042] Please see Figure 1 A set of manual valves 420 is installed in the circulation pipe 400 at the outlet of the heat exchanger 100, and a set of manual valves 420 is also installed in the circulation pipe 400 at the inlet of the heater 300. When both the manual valves 420 at the outlet of the heat exchanger 100 and the manual valves 420 at the inlet of the heater 300 are open, water can circulate in the circulation pipes 400; when either the manual valve 420 at the outlet of the heat exchanger 100 or the manual valve 420 at the inlet of the heater 300 is closed, water cannot flow from the heat exchanger 100 into the heater 300, and the water circulation path is cut off.
[0043] In an optional embodiment, a pressure gauge 430 is provided in the circulation pipeline 400 between the circulation pump 410 and the hand valve 420 at the outlet of the heat exchanger 100.
[0044] Please see Figure 1 The pressure gauge 430 can be an electronic pressure gauge 430, which can display the pressure of the circulating water in the circulation pipe 400, making observation intuitive and convenient.
[0045] In an optional embodiment, the circulation pipeline 400 is provided with a safety valve 440 for controlling the water pressure inside the circulation pipeline 400.
[0046] Please see Figure 1 Safety valve 440 is an opening and closing element. It is normally closed under external force. When the water pressure in the circulation pipeline 400 rises above a specified value, it discharges the medium to prevent the pressure in the circulation pipeline 400 from exceeding the specified value. Safety valve 440 is an automatic valve that ensures stable water pressure in the circulation pipeline 400.
[0047] In an optional embodiment, the circulation pipeline 400 is provided with a water supply valve 450 for replenishing water to the circulation pipeline 400.
[0048] Please see Figure 1 The water supply valve 450 is located in the circulation pipeline 400 near the heater 300. The water supply valve 450 can provide circulating water to the circulation pipeline 400 to ensure the normal operation of the heating device.
[0049] In an optional embodiment, the circulation pipeline 400 is provided with a gas collecting bottle 460 for collecting gas within the circulation pipeline 400.
[0050] Please see Figure 1 As water circulates within the circulation pipe 400, gas inevitably flows along with it. The gas collecting bottle 460 can collect the gas within the circulation pipe 400, making the water circulation faster and more efficient.
[0051] In an optional embodiment, the circulation pipeline 400 is provided with a drain valve 470 for draining the water in the circulation pipeline 400.
[0052] Please see Figure 1 The drain valve 470 is connected to the heater 300 and can drain the water in the circulation pipe 400. The circulation pipe 400 is also equipped with an air vent valve 480, which provides an open space after the water inside the circulation pipe 400 is drained.
[0053] The circulation process of the heating device in this embodiment is as follows: the hot air with residual heat discharged from the mechanical structure enters the heat exchanger 100 to heat the circulating water. The heated circulating water enters the heater 300 to preheat the cool air blown in by the blower 310. The heating element heats the air. The heated air then enters the mechanical structure for use, thus forming a complete cycle.
[0054] The working process of the heating device provided in this embodiment is as follows:
[0055] The exhaust gas generated by the mechanical structure is discharged through the exhaust fan 200. The hot air, carrying residual heat, enters the air inlet at the top of the heat exchanger 100 from the exhaust port. As the hot air flows through the heat exchanger 100, it heats the water in the heating elements. Finally, the hot air is discharged from the air outlet at the bottom of the heat exchanger 100. The intake fan 310 delivers flowing air to the heater 300. The water in the heat exchanger 100, after being heated by the hot air, flows into the heater 300 through the circulation pipe 400 under the power of the circulation pump 410. After entering the heater 300, the water preheats the flowing air. The heating elements then heat the flowing air, and the heated air is then used inside the mechanical structure.
