Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas-water separator technology, specifically to a cyclone filter type gas-water separator. Background Technology
[0002] Cyclone filter-type gas-liquid separators are commonly used gas-liquid separation devices, operating on the principle of centrifugal force and airflow rotation. When a gas-liquid mixture enters the separator through the inlet pipe, it rotates. During rotation, the speed and direction of the mixture change, causing the liquid portion to be subjected to centrifugal force and thrown against the separator wall. This liquid then flows along the wall and eventually into the collection chamber at the bottom of the separator, completing the liquid separation. The separated gas is then discharged from the center of the separator through the outlet pipe.
[0003] Existing gas-liquid separators have the following problems: limited separation efficiency. For tiny particles or droplets, the separation efficiency of cyclone separators may not be ideal, especially when dealing with extremely fine droplets. Furthermore, they are not suitable for viscous materials. For highly viscous materials, cyclone separators may struggle to achieve effective separation because viscous materials tend to adhere to the inner wall of the equipment. Additionally, in existing technologies, gas sometimes escapes from the outlet, causing poor gas-liquid separation. To address this, some existing technologies require the use of automatic solenoid valves to control liquid discharge and prevent gas from escaping from the outlet. However, using automatic solenoid valves may result in high costs. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a cyclone filter type gas-water separator.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is: a cyclone filter-type gas-water separator, the gas-water separator including a tank, a filter cylinder located at the center of the tank, a spiral blade located in the gap between the filter cylinder and the tank, and a water outlet located at the bottom of the tank; the spiral blade is provided on the inner wall of the tank, and a filter screen is provided inside the filter cylinder; the tank is provided with a gas-water inlet pipe, a gas outlet pipe, and a water outlet pipe; the water outlet includes a basin for collecting liquid, the basin is connected to the bottom surface of the tank by a spring rod and moves up and down using the liquid; the tank is provided with a lever inside the tank that taps the filter cylinder by moving the basin up and down, and the lever is rotatably connected to the tank.
[0006] Explanation: With the above structural design, the spiral blades can guide the flow of the gas-liquid mixture. The filter cylinder can further remove moisture from the gas. The basin can move up and down via a spring rod. The actuating rod can intermittently tap the filter cylinder by moving the basin up and down, so that water droplets and viscous liquids on the filter screen can fall into the basin.
[0007] Furthermore, the water outlet also includes a fixing rod, and the bottom surface of the basin is provided with a first opening; the fixing rod is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the tank, the tank is provided with a second opening, the second opening is connected to the water outlet pipe, the upper end of the fixing rod passes through the first opening and the upper end of the fixing rod is provided with a first baffle for closing the first opening, the lower part of the second opening is provided with a second baffle for closing the second opening, and the second baffle is connected to the basin through a connecting rod.
[0008] Explanation: By setting up the above-mentioned fixing rod, connecting rod, first opening and second opening, the first opening and second opening can be opened when the basin moves downward and closed when the basin moves upward, thereby realizing the discharge of liquid and preventing gas from being discharged from the outlet when there is no liquid in the basin.
[0009] Furthermore, the side cross-section of the basin is funnel-shaped.
[0010] Furthermore, the two ends of the actuating lever are provided with protrusions for contacting the basin body.
[0011] Note: The tapered design and the protrusion design described above allow the lever to be pushed more effectively when the basin moves downwards.
[0012] Furthermore, the spiral blades closer to the inner wall of the tank are positioned upwards, while the spiral blades closer to the center of the tank are positioned downwards.
[0013] Explanation: The spiral blades described above can guide the flow of the gas-liquid mixture, enabling it to achieve better swirling flow, and the spiral blades can enhance the gas-liquid separation process.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] This invention utilizes a spiral blade to guide the gas-liquid mixture and a filter cartridge to further remove moisture from the gas. Intermittent tapping of the filter cartridge with a lever promotes the falling of water droplets and viscous liquid from the filter screen into the basin, preventing water from failing to fall in time. The design of the fixing rod, connecting rod, and opening ensures that liquid can enter when the basin moves downwards and exit when it moves upwards, while preventing gas from escaping from the outlet. This ensures effective liquid drainage and stable equipment operation, improves the water-gas separation effect, and reduces operating costs. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To further illustrate the methods and effects of this invention, the technical solution of this invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with experiments.
[0022] The present invention will now be described in more detail with reference to specific embodiments, so as to better demonstrate the advantages of the present invention.
[0023] Example 1: As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a cyclone filter-type air-water separator includes a tank 1, a filter cylinder 15 located at the center of the tank 1, a spiral blade 14 located in the gap between the filter cylinder 15 and the tank 1, and a water outlet located at the lower part of the tank 1. The spiral blade 14 is disposed on the inner wall of the tank 1, and a filter screen is provided inside the filter cylinder 15. The filter screen is a commercially available plain woven filter screen. The tank 1 is provided with an air-water inlet pipe 11, an air outlet pipe 12, and a water outlet pipe 13. The water outlet includes a basin 2 for collecting liquid. The basin 2 is connected to the bottom surface of the tank 1 by a spring rod and moves up and down using the liquid. The spring rod is positioned close to the center of gravity of the basin 2, and the number of spring rods can be two or more (e.g., ...). Figure 2 (As shown in the two), to ensure that the basin 2 can provide balanced support, that is, when liquid is poured into the basin 2, the basin 2 can maintain balanced up and down movement.
[0024] The tank 1 is equipped with a lever 16 that can be used to actuate the filter cylinder 15 by moving the basin 2 up and down. The lever 16 is rotatably connected to the tank 1.
[0025] The water outlet component also includes a fixing rod 24, and the bottom surface of the basin 2 is provided with a first opening; the fixing rod 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the tank 1, the tank 1 is provided with a second opening 17, the second opening 17 is connected to the water outlet pipe 13, the upper end of the fixing rod 24 passes through the first opening and the upper end of the fixing rod 24 is provided with a first baffle 23 for closing the first opening, the lower part of the second opening 17 is provided with a second baffle 22 for closing the second opening 17, and the second baffle 22 is connected to the basin 2 through a connecting rod 21.
[0026] The side wall of the basin 2 has a funnel-shaped side section; the two ends of the actuating rod 16 are provided with protrusions for contacting the basin 2; the spiral blade 14 near the inner wall of the tank 1 is arranged with one side facing upward and the spiral blade near the center of the tank 1 is arranged with one side facing downward.
[0027] The working principle is as follows: the gas-liquid mixture is introduced into the tank 1 through the gas-water inlet pipe 11. After being guided by the spiral blade 14, the gas forms a swirling flow into the lower part of the tank 1. At the same time, the spiral blade 14 acts as a barrier. Some liquid flows from top to bottom on the spiral blade 14 to the lower part of the tank 1. The gas with a small amount of liquid droplets flows upward into the filter cylinder 15 under the obstruction of the basin 2. A small amount of liquid droplets adhere to the filter screen, and the gas flows out through the gas outlet pipe 12.
[0028] Liquid collects on basin 2. When it reaches a certain level, basin 2 gradually moves downward. During the downward movement of basin 2, the actuating rod 16 is turned, causing it to rotate. The other end of the actuating rod 16 taps the filter cylinder 15, allowing the liquid droplets on the filter screen inside the filter cylinder 15 to fall more effectively into basin 2. At the same time, the first baffle 23 opens with the first opening, and the second baffle 22 opens with the second opening 17. The liquid in basin 2 flows through the first opening and the second opening 17 to the outlet pipe 13 and is then discharged. Then, basin 2 returns to its original state via the spring rod.
[0029] Example 2: This example is basically the same as Example 1, except that the structure of the filter screen inside the filter cylinder 15 is as follows. Figure 4 As shown, the filter screen is composed of multiple wavy mesh structures. The working method of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1.
