Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chloroacetaldehyde dialkyl acetal preparation technology, and in particular to an apparatus for preparing chloroacetaldehyde dialkyl acetal. Background Technology
[0002] Chloroacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal (systematic name: 2-chloro-1,1-dimethoxyethane) is widely used in the synthesis of fragrances, pharmaceuticals, and pesticides, and is also an important organic synthesis reagent. As an important organic compound, it has wide applications in organic synthesis, chemical separation, analytical chemistry, pharmaceuticals, and pesticides.
[0003] The existing technology for preparing dimethyl chloroacetaldehyde typically includes a chlorination reactor and a reaction vessel. The raw materials are reacted in the chlorination reactor before entering the reaction vessel. A transfer pump is usually used to transfer the medium from the chlorination reactor to the reaction vessel. To ensure uniform mixing of the medium in the chlorination reactor, a stirring mechanism is usually installed inside the chlorination reactor to agitate the medium. Although this type of chlorination reactor has high reaction efficiency, the need for a stirring mechanism makes the reactor structure complex and may cause leakage of the medium inside the chlorination reactor.
[0004] Therefore, the existing equipment for preparing chloroacetaldehyde dialkyl alcohol has technical problems such as complex structure and easy leakage of the medium in the chlorination reactor. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This invention provides an apparatus for preparing chloroacetaldehyde dialkyl alcohol, which solves the technical problems of complex structure and easy leakage of media in the chlorination reactor in the prior art for preparing chloroacetaldehyde dialkyl alcohol.
[0006] Some implementation schemes for solving the above-mentioned technical problems include:

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0021] 1. By setting up a reflux pipe and a feed pump, the feed pump can extract the medium from the chlorination reactor and then discharge it back into the chlorination reactor through the reflux pipe. The medium entering the chlorination reactor through the reflux pipe can impact the medium stored in the chlorination reactor, thereby keeping the medium in the chlorination reactor in a non-static state and thus improving the reaction efficiency of the chlorination reactor.

[0034] The specific embodiments shown below are intended to describe various configurations of the subject matter of this invention and are not intended to represent the only configuration in which the subject matter of this invention can be practiced. The specific embodiments include detailed descriptions intended to provide a thorough understanding of the subject matter of this invention. However, it will be clear and apparent to those skilled in the art that the subject matter of this invention is not limited to the specific details shown herein and can be practiced without these specific details.
[0035] Understandably, in this document, relational terms such as “first” and “second” are intended to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and are not intended to expressly or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
[0036] The terms “comprising,” “including,” or any other variations thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase “comprising one…” does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an apparatus for preparing chloroacetaldehyde dialkyl alcohol includes a chlorination reaction assembly 1 and a reaction vessel assembly 2, wherein the chlorination reaction assembly 1 supplies materials to the reaction vessel assembly 2 through a feeding assembly 3;
[0038] The chlorination reaction assembly 1 includes a raw material tank 11, a cooler 12, a chlorine tank 13, and a chlorination reactor 131. The raw material in the raw material tank 11 enters the chlorination reactor 131 through the cooler 12, and the chlorine tank 13 is connected to the chlorination reactor 131.
[0039] The feeding assembly 3 includes a feeding pump 31 and a feeding pipe. The feeding pipe includes a reflux pipe 32 communicating with the chlorination reaction and a discharge pipe 33 communicating with the reactor assembly 2. The discharge pipe 33 and the reflux pipe 32 are both connected to the feeding pump 31 through a control valve 34. The medium output by the feeding pump 31 enters the chlorination reactor 131 through the reflux pipe 32, or the medium output by the feeding pump 31 enters the reactor assembly 2 through the discharge pipe 33.
[0040] The reactor assembly 2 includes a reactor body 21 and a mixing tank 22, which communicates with the reactor body 21.
[0041] The preparation method of chloroacetaldehyde dialkyl acetal is not limited and can refer to existing technology. The equipment provided by this utility model is used to complete part or all of the manufacturing process of chloroacetaldehyde dialkyl acetal.
[0042] Cooler 12 is a common refrigeration device in the prior art, and its working principle and specific structure are in accordance with the prior art.
[0043] Reference Figures 2 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, when the raw materials and chlorine react in the chlorination reactor 131, the control valve 34 closes the discharge pipe 33 and opens the return pipe 32. At this time, the feed pump 31 operates to extract the medium in the chlorination reactor 131 and then return it to the inside of the chlorination reactor 131 through the return pipe 32, realizing the return of the medium. This keeps the medium in the chlorination reactor 131 in a non-static state, which is beneficial to improving the reaction efficiency of the chlorination reactor 131.
[0044] After the reaction in the chlorination reactor 131 is complete, the control valve 34 can close the reflux pipe 32 and open the discharge pipe 33, allowing the medium in the chlorination reactor 131 to react in the reactor assembly 2 via the discharge pipe 33. Alternatively, during this process, both the discharge pipe 33 and the reflux pipe 32 can be opened, so that a portion of the medium output by the feed pump 31 enters the reactor assembly 2, while the other portion continues to flow back to the chlorination reactor 131, preventing the medium in the chlorination reactor 131 from becoming stagnant.
[0045] The control valve 34 can be a solenoid valve. The control valve 34 can be controlled by a controller, or it can be manually controlled. The control method of the control valve 34 is not limited.
[0046] In some embodiments, the medium within the reactor assembly 2 should also have high reaction efficiency to improve production efficiency. For example, a stirring assembly 23 is provided inside the reactor body 21.
[0047] Reference Figures 2 to 6As shown, in some embodiments, the reactor body 21 includes a shell 231, and the stirring assembly 23 includes a driver 232 and a stirrer 233. The driver 232 is disposed outside the shell 231, and the stirrer 233 is located inside the shell 231. The driver 232 can be a motor, which can be fixed to the shell 231 by screws or other means.
[0048] In some embodiments, the stirrer 233 includes a stirring shaft 234 driven by the driver 232, the stirring shaft 234 is provided with stirring blades 235, the rotation axis of the stirring blades 235 coincides with the axis of the stirring shaft 234, and the stirrer 233 also includes a stirring plate 236, the rotation axis of the stirring plate 236 is not parallel to the axis of the stirring shaft 234.
[0049] Understandably, the stirring blade 235 rotates around the first axis and the stirring plate 236 rotates around the second axis. The first axis and the second axis are not parallel, which makes the medium in the reactor body 21 more turbulent, thereby making the medium in the reactor body 21 have better mixing efficiency, thus improving the reaction efficiency of the medium in the reactor body 21.
[0050] In some embodiments, the rotation axis of the stirring blade 236 is perpendicular to the axis of the stirring shaft 234.
[0051] The housing 231 is provided with a mounting bracket 24, and the mounting bracket 24 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 25. The stirring blade 236 is disposed on the rotating shaft 25, and the rotating shaft 25 is driven by the stirring shaft 234.
[0052] The stirring shaft 234 is provided with a driving gear 26, and the rotating shaft 25 is provided with a driven gear 27 that meshes with the driving gear 26.
[0053] There are at least three rotating shafts 25, and each rotating shaft 25 is provided with a stirring plate 236. All the rotating shafts 25 are evenly arranged around the stirring shaft 234.
[0054] Reference Figures 2 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting bracket 24 includes an inner ring 241 and an outer ring 242. The inner ring 241 is rotatably connected to the stirring shaft 234, the outer ring 242 is mounted on the inner wall of the housing 231, one end of the rotating shaft 25 is rotatably connected to the outer ring 242, and the other end of the rotating shaft 25 is rotatably connected to the inner ring 241.
[0055] The outer ring 242 can be fixed to the inner wall of the housing 231. For example, a fixing ring can be provided on the inner wall of the housing 231, and the fixing ring can be an integral structure with the housing 231. The outer ring 242 can be fixed to the fixing ring with screws, or the outer ring 242 can be welded to the fixing ring.
[0056] The inner ring 241 can rotate relative to the stirring shaft 234, but it cannot move axially relative to the stirring shaft 234. Therefore, a bearing can be provided between the inner ring 241 and the stirring shaft 234, and the bearing can be a radial thrust bearing.
[0057] In some embodiments, the inner ring 241 is provided with a through hole, the stirring shaft 234 passes through the through hole, a bearing is provided between the stirring shaft 234 and the through hole, a bearing is provided between the rotating shaft 25 and the inner ring 241, and a bearing is provided between the rotating shaft 25 and the outer ring 242.
[0058] Both the inner ring 241 and the outer ring 242 are provided with shaft holes that mate with the rotating shaft 25.
[0059] In some embodiments, the stirring blade 235 and the stirring shaft 234 can be an integral structure. The stirring plate 236 can be an integral structure with the rotating shaft 25.
[0060] The inner ring 241 and the outer ring 242 can be connected together by a rotating shaft 25.

It is understood that the above description is only some implementation schemes of the subject matter technical solution of this utility model, and some details may be omitted in the specific implementation.
