Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas preparation, specifically to a honeycomb-type finished product buffer tank assembly. Background Technology

[0002] Existing heterogeneous honeycomb-type finished product buffer tank units consist of several interconnected tanks arranged in a honeycomb pattern. The design is modified to suit different installation spaces, ensuring each tank is independently and centrally located within a pre-defined installation area. The finished product gas generated by the adsorption tower assembly is collected and stored in the buffer tank unit. The tanks are arranged closely together, with pipes connecting them at their tops. Because the pipes are located at the tops of the tanks, subsequently produced finished product gas can only diffuse to the upper part of the tanks. This can lead to mixing of previously produced finished product gas within the buffer tank unit, causing fluctuations in product concentration and affecting the quality of the finished product gas and the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a honeycomb-type finished product buffer tank assembly. Adjacent tanks are sequentially and alternately connected through corresponding tops or bottoms, ensuring that the airflow path completely covers the axis of each tank. Subsequent incoming airflow will push the previously retained gas out completely, ensuring that finished gas from different batches will not be mixed, ensuring that product quality meets production requirements, and improving the user experience.

[0004] This invention is achieved through the following method: a honeycomb-type finished product buffer tank assembly, comprising several tanks connected in series, with adjacent tanks alternately connected by corresponding tops and bottoms, so that the airflow has a square wave-shaped path arranged along the axis of each tank. The alternating connection of adjacent tanks through corresponding tops or bottoms ensures that the airflow path completely covers the axis of each tank. Subsequent incoming airflow pushes out previously retained gas, ensuring that different batches of finished product gas are not mixed, guaranteeing product quality meets production requirements, improving user experience, and ensuring that the tank axes are aligned, thereby reducing the installation space of the finished product buffer tank assembly. The square wave-shaped path includes a vertical section formed by the axes of each tank and a horizontal section formed by pipe fittings bridging the corresponding ends of adjacent tanks.

[0005] Preferably, the corresponding ends of adjacent tanks are connected by pipe fittings, with the inlet and outlet of the pipe fittings coinciding with the axis of the corresponding tank. The inlet and outlet of the pipe fittings are both located in the middle of the corresponding end face of the tank, which facilitates processing, effectively reduces airflow resistance, and facilitates the delivery of the finished gas.

[0006] Preferably, the fitting is U-shaped with rounded corners to reduce airflow resistance. The end faces of adjacent tanks at corresponding ends have the same orientation. The U-shaped fitting bridges the corresponding end faces, which facilitates fitting assembly and effectively guides airflow direction, thereby enabling airflow to be transported along a square wave path.

[0007] Preferably, the tank body is cylindrical, with a cylindrical cavity inside. Each end of the cavity has a hemispherical cavity communicating with a corresponding inlet and outlet. The cavity has smooth sidewalls, effectively reducing wind resistance and facilitating airflow.

[0008] Preferably, the airflow from the inlet diffuses to each region of the tank cavity cross section through the corresponding hemispherical cavity. The hemispherical cavity is used to diffuse the airflow from the inlet, ensuring that the airflow can cover each region of the tank cavity cross section and effectively squeeze out the original gas in the tank cavity.

[0009] Preferably, the hemispherical cavity corresponding to the outlet guides the airflow within the tank cavity towards the outlet. The hemispherical cavity can converge the airflow from various regions of the tank cavity cross-section and discharge it to the subsequent tank through the outlet, effectively improving the airflow conveying efficiency and ensuring that the original gas is effectively discharged.

[0010] Preferably, the large-diameter surface of the hemispherical cavity is exposed towards the tank cavity, and the diameter of the large-diameter surface of the hemispherical cavity matches the cross-sectional profile of the tank cavity. The periphery of the large-diameter surface of the hemispherical cavity is smoothly connected to the periphery of the end face of the tank cavity, effectively reducing wind resistance and ensuring that the tank body profile meets the requirements for close arrangement.

[0011] Preferably, the tank assembly comprises at least three tanks, including a primary tank, at least one intermediate tank, and a final tank connected in series via pipe fittings. The volume of the finished product buffer tank assembly is adjusted by changing the number of intermediate tanks to meet usage requirements.

[0012] Preferably, one end of the primary tank is provided with an air inlet, and the other end is connected to the corresponding end of the adjacent intermediate tank through a pipe fitting. The air inlet is arranged along the axis of the primary tank, which facilitates airflow. The end of the primary tank away from the air inlet is provided with a pipe fitting that connects to the corresponding end of the adjacent intermediate tank, which effectively shortens the pipe fitting length, saves space, and also effectively reduces wind resistance and improves airflow efficiency.

[0013] Preferably, one end of the final stage tank is connected to the corresponding end of the adjacent intermediate stage tank via a pipe fitting, and the other end is provided with an air outlet. The air outlet is arranged along the axis of the final stage tank, which facilitates airflow. The end of the final stage tank away from the air outlet is provided with a pipe fitting that connects to the corresponding end of the adjacent intermediate stage tank, which effectively shortens the pipe fitting length, saves space, and also effectively reduces wind resistance and improves airflow efficiency.

[0014] Preferably, the tanks are arranged closely together, and their axes are aligned in the same direction. Pipe fittings are placed between corresponding ends of adjacent tanks without occupying space between them, and the tank axes are aligned with each other, effectively improving space utilization efficiency.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Adjacent tanks are alternately connected through their corresponding tops or bottoms, ensuring that the airflow path completely covers the axis of each tank. Subsequent incoming airflow pushes out previously retained gas, ensuring complete exhaustion. This prevents mixing of different batches of finished gas, guarantees product quality meets production requirements, improves user experience, and ensures that the tank axes are aligned, thus reducing the installation space required for the finished product buffer tank assembly. The square wave path includes a vertical section formed by the axes of each tank and a horizontal section formed by pipe fittings bridging the corresponding ends of adjacent tanks.

[0019] The essential features of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1 and 2 The honeycomb-type finished product buffer tank assembly shown consists of several tanks connected in series. Adjacent tanks are alternately connected through corresponding tops or bottoms, so that the airflow has a square wave-shaped path along the axis of each tank. The alternating connection of adjacent tanks through corresponding tops or bottoms ensures that the airflow path completely covers the axis of each tank. Subsequent incoming airflow pushes out previously retained gas, ensuring that different batches of finished product gas are not mixed, guaranteeing product quality meets production requirements, improving user experience, and ensuring that the tank axes are aligned, thereby reducing the installation space required for the finished product buffer tank assembly.

[0021] In this embodiment, the tank is connected to the ends of the corresponding adjacent tanks through the top and bottom, respectively, to ensure that the finished gas flows along the tank axis and thoroughly removes the gas originally stored in the tank. This prevents the finished gas concentration from failing to meet the usage requirements due to the mixing and retention of different concentrations of gases produced in different batches, thereby improving the user experience.

[0022] In this embodiment, the tanks are arranged closely together, with their axes aligned in the same direction. Corresponding ends of adjacent tanks are connected by pipe fittings 1, forming a square-wave path. This ensures that airflow can sequentially pass through each tank to thoroughly remove residual gas, while also ensuring a close arrangement between adjacent tanks, effectively reducing the installation space required. The square-wave path includes a vertical section formed by the axes of each tank and a horizontal section formed by pipe fittings 1 bridging the corresponding ends of adjacent tanks.

[0023] In actual operation, the corresponding ends of adjacent tanks are connected by a pipe fitting 1. The inlet 2 and outlet 3 of the pipe fitting 1 are respectively aligned with the axis of the corresponding tank. The pipe fitting 1 is U-shaped. The U-shaped pipe fitting 1 can be connected along the axis of the end face of the corresponding tank through its ends, ensuring that the airflow output and received by the pipe fitting 1 can be transported along the axis of the tank. By reducing the bend path, airflow resistance is reduced, thereby improving airflow transport efficiency. It is also convenient to process and effectively saves the space required for installation. The pipe fitting 1 is provided with a rounded corner 4 to reduce airflow resistance and ensure that the finished gas can be quickly received and output.

[0024] In actual operation, the tank body is cylindrical, with a cylindrical tank cavity 6 inside. Each end of the tank cavity 6 has a hemispherical cavity 5 communicating with the corresponding inlet 2 and outlet 3. The cylindrical shape of the tank body facilitates the use of round tubes for processing, improving processing efficiency and reducing production costs. The hemispherical cavities at the top and bottom of the tank cavity 6 respectively narrow the ends and guide the airflow. Specifically, the airflow from inlet 2 diffuses to all areas of the cross-section of the tank cavity 6 through the corresponding hemispherical cavity 5. The cavity wall of the hemispherical cavity 5 diffuses the airflow, ensuring that the airflow can diffuse to all areas of the cross-section of the tank cavity 6, guaranteeing that the gas remaining in the tank cavity 6 is completely discharged. The hemispherical cavity 5 corresponding to the outlet 3 guides the airflow in the tank cavity 6 to converge towards the outlet 3. The cavity wall of the hemispherical cavity 5 converges the airflow, ensuring that the airflow from all areas of the cross-section of the tank cavity 6 can converge towards the center and be discharged through the outlet 3.

[0025] In actual operation, the large-diameter surface of the hemispherical cavity 5 is exposed towards the tank cavity 6, and the diameter of the large-diameter surface of the hemispherical cavity 5 matches the cross-sectional profile of the tank cavity 6. The periphery of the large-diameter surface of the hemispherical cavity 5 matches and connects with the periphery of the end of the tank cavity 6, which not only facilitates processing but also effectively reduces wind resistance.

[0026] In actual operation, there are at least three tanks, including a primary tank 7, at least one intermediate tank 8, and a final tank 9 connected in series via pipe fittings 1. Furthermore, the number of tanks can be increased or decreased according to usage requirements; for example, using two, four, or six tanks should all be considered specific embodiments of this utility model.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, there are six tanks, including a primary tank 7, four intermediate tanks 8, and a final tank 9 connected in series. The primary tank 7 is connected to the adjacent intermediate tanks 8, the adjacent intermediate tanks 8 are connected to each other, and the final tank 9 is connected to the adjacent intermediate tanks 8 via pipe fittings 1. The top and bottom of the intermediate tanks 8 are connected to the adjacent tanks via pipe fittings 1. One end of the primary tank 7 is provided with an air inlet 10, and the other end is connected to the corresponding end of the adjacent intermediate tank 8 via pipe fittings 1. One end of the final tank 9 is connected to the corresponding end of the adjacent intermediate tank 8 via pipe fittings 1, and the other end is provided with an air outlet 11. This allows the airflow to have a square wave-shaped path arranged along the axis of each tank, ensuring that the residual gas in each tank can be removed one by one, thereby ensuring that the quality of the finished gas meets the usage requirements.

[0028] In practice, the finished product buffer tank group can be used for buffer storage of finished product gas in gas preparation devices, including oxygen generators, nitrogen generators, etc., and should all be regarded as specific embodiments of this utility model.
