Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of liquid fuel gasification and combustion technology, specifically to an adjustment mechanism and nozzle device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, gas appliances refer to all appliances that use gas (manufactured gas, liquefied petroleum gas, natural gas), such as gas stoves (gas furnaces), gas water heaters, and wall-mounted boilers, used in our daily lives and industries. They are categorized as follows: I. Gas Water Heaters: including water heaters, gas boilers, and gas-fired boilers. II. Gas Cooking Appliances: including gas stoves, gas rice cookers, gas ovens, and gas-fired heat exchangers. III. Gas Refrigeration Appliances: including gas refrigerators and gas freezers. IV. Gas Heating and Cooling Appliances: including gas heaters and gas air conditioners. V. Gas Washing and Drying Appliances: including hot water washing machines, washer-dryers, and ironing equipment. With the accelerated pace of gas exploration, development, and application in my country, the application of gas appliances will inevitably move beyond the era of single-product offerings, and the gas appliance industry will usher in unprecedented development. In industry, light hydrocarbons are often used as fuels or raw materials, and atomization is used to improve combustion efficiency or processing quality.

[0003] CN1328238A discloses a light hydrocarbon fuel combustion furnace, comprising a fuel storage chamber, an air pumping device connected to an air inlet of the fuel storage chamber, a gas nozzle connected to a gas outlet of the fuel storage chamber, a drive device for driving the air pumping device, and a power source for providing power to the drive device. The fuel storage chamber has a fuel inlet and an air inlet and a gas outlet at its upper position. The air pumping device is adapted to pump air into the fuel storage chamber. In use, the air pump continuously pumps air into the fuel storage chamber through the air inlet. The air mixes with the volatile components of the fuel in the fuel storage chamber to form a combustible gas, which is then ejected from the gas outlet through a conduit and controlled by a regulating valve through the gas nozzle.

[0004] While traditional atomizing nozzles can meet atomization requirements to a certain extent, they have limitations in practical applications. For example, they cannot adjust the spray angle within the fuel tank according to specific operating conditions, leading to unsatisfactory atomization or energy waste. Existing technologies use movable structures to install atomizing nozzles to adjust their angle; however, such nozzles lack stability during adjustment and use, making it difficult to meet the requirements for long-term stable operation. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and propose an adjustment mechanism and nozzle device to solve the technical problem that the atomizing nozzle cannot adjust the spray angle of the nozzle in the fuel tank, resulting in unsatisfactory atomization effect or energy waste.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an adjustment mechanism, comprising: a mounting component and an adjustment component.

[0011] In some embodiments, the mounting component further includes an adjustment drive, which is mounted on the movable part and connected to the guide part, for driving the movable part to slide on the guide part to adjust the spray angle of the nozzle body.

[0012] In some embodiments, the adjustment drive includes a first gear and a first drive motor.

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0030] To address the technical problem of atomizing nozzles being unable to adjust the spray angle within the fuel tank, resulting in unsatisfactory atomization or energy waste, this invention provides an adjustment mechanism and nozzle device. This mechanism enables the nozzle body to be adjusted at multiple angles in three-dimensional space, improving not only the nozzle's spray accuracy and atomization efficiency but also enhancing its adaptability to different working environments. Furthermore, it ensures the nozzle body operates smoothly and reliably during adjustment and use, guaranteeing the nozzle's stability and durability over extended periods of use.

[0031] Firstly, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2An embodiment of this solution provides an adjustment mechanism, which includes: a mounting component 2 and an adjustment component 3. The mounting component 2 includes a mounting body 21 and a movable part 22. One end of the movable part 22 is movably connected to the mounting body 21, and the other end of the movable part 22 is disposed on the connecting nozzle body 1. The adjustment component 3 is rotatably mounted on the mounting body 21 and has a guide part 301. The guide part 301 is slidably connected to the movable part 22. The adjustment component 3 can drive the movable part 22 to rotate relative to the mounting component 2, and the movable part 22 can also rotate relative to the adjustment component 3 along the guide part 301.

[0032] In this device, the mounting body 21 and the movable part 22 are movably connected. The adjusting component 3 is provided with a guide part 301. The movable part 22 can rotate relative to the adjusting component 3 along the guide part 301. When the movable part 22 slides along the guide part 301, since one end of the movable part 22 is movably connected to the mounting body 21, the movable part 22 will deflect relative to the mounting body 21. Its deflection movement can drive the nozzle body 1 to adjust the angle, thereby realizing flexible adjustment of the spray angle. At the same time, the adjusting component 3 is rotatably mounted on the mounting body 21. The adjusting component 3 can drive the movable part 22 to rotate relative to the mounting component 21. When it rotates, it can further adjust the tilt angle of the guide part 301 relative to the mounting body 21, thereby realizing further adjustment of the deflection angle of the movable part 22 and increasing the adjustment range of the spray angle of the atomizing nozzle.

[0033] It should be noted that in this solution, the nozzle body 1 is installed on the mounting component 2 during use and can be moved to adjust the angle. Therefore, the nozzle body 1 and the raw material conveying pipeline are connected by a flexible hose or other movable connection method to ensure that the raw material conveying is not affected when adjusting the angle.

[0034] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 Preferably, in this embodiment, the mounting component 2 further includes a universal ball 23, through which the movable part 22 is movably connected to the mounting body 21. The universal ball 23 has the characteristics of flexible rotation, strong load-bearing capacity, low wear, and long service life, so as to ensure that the movable part 22 deflects smoothly and steadily on the mounting body 21, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of adjustment.

[0035] Of course, in other possible embodiments, a rotating seat and bearings can be used to achieve a movable connection between the movable part and the mounting body. The rotating part is located at the bottom of the mounting body 21 and is rotatably connected to the mounting body 21, enabling coaxial rotation at the bottom of the mounting body 21. A bearing is provided on the rotating seat, and the movable part 22 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat through the bearing, thereby achieving a movable connection between the movable part and the mounting body, and enabling flexible adjustment of the angle.

[0036] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, the mounting body 21 is a mounting base 211, and the movable part 22 includes a connecting rod 221 and a movable frame 222. A movable groove 212 is formed at the bottom of the mounting base 211, and a universal ball 23 is installed in the movable groove 212. The shape of the movable groove 212 matches the universal ball 23 to ensure that the universal ball 23 can rotate freely within the movable groove 212. The top end of the connecting rod 221 is fixedly connected to one side of the universal ball 23, and the bottom end of the connecting rod 221 is fixedly connected to the movable frame 222. The nozzle body 1 is installed on one side of the movable frame 222, and the movable frame 222 is slidably connected to the guide part 301.

[0037] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The guide part 301 is configured with an arc-shaped structure, and the arc-shaped trajectory formed by the guide part 301 matches the movement path of one end of the movable part 22. The movable part 22 and the guide part 301 are connected by a sleeve. Specifically, the guide part 301 includes an arc-shaped rod 31, and the movable frame 222 is sleeved on the arc-shaped rod 31 and can slide along the arc-shaped rod 31 to realize the deflection of the movable part 22 relative to the mounting body 21.

[0038] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, the adjusting component 3 also includes a connecting seat 32 and a slider 33. The connecting seat 32 is rotatably engaged with a rotating shaft on the top of the mounting base 211. A transverse adjusting groove 321 is provided on one side of the connecting seat 32. The slider 33 is slidably installed in the adjusting groove 321 and can move laterally within the adjusting groove 321. The slider 33 is connected to the guide part 301. When installing the device, the position of the guide part 301 outside the mounting component 2 can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the slider 33 in the adjusting groove 321, thereby realizing the adjustment of the position of the guide part 301 and ensuring a smoother sliding connection between the guide part 301 and the movable part 22.

[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 5 In this embodiment, the mounting component 2 further includes an adjustment drive 4, and the adjustment component 3 further includes a rotation drive 5. The adjustment drive 4 drives the movable frame 222 to slide on the arc-shaped rod 31, while the rotation drive 5 drives the connecting seat 32 to rotate, thereby achieving automatic adjustment of the spray angle of the nozzle body 1. Specifically, the adjustment drive 4 is connected to the slider 33 and can drive the slider 33 to slide within the adjustment groove 321, thereby adjusting the position of the guide part 301. The rotation drive 5 is connected to the adjustment component 3 and can drive the adjustment component 3 to rotate outside the mounting body 21, further adjusting the angular position of the guide part 301 relative to the mounting body 21. Through the cooperation of the adjustment drive 4 and the rotation drive 5, precise adjustment of the spray angle of the nozzle body 1 can be achieved, improving the performance of the atomizing nozzle.

[0040] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the adjusting drive component 4 includes a first gear 41 and a first drive motor. A plurality of toothed grooves 311 are sequentially formed along the length of one side of the arc-shaped rod 31. The first gear 41 is rotatably mounted in an opening slot on one side of the movable frame 222 and meshes with the toothed grooves 311. The first drive motor is mounted on the movable frame 222, and its output shaft is connected to the first gear 41 to drive the first gear 41 to rotate. In use, the first drive motor starts, and its output shaft drives the first gear 41 to rotate. Since the first gear 41 meshes with the toothed grooves 311 on the guide portion 301, the rotation of the first gear 41 drives the movable frame 222 to slide along the arc-shaped rod 31, thereby adjusting the spray angle of the nozzle body 1.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the rotary drive 5 includes a drive ring 51, a second gear 52, and a second motor 53. The drive ring 51 is disposed on the top of the connecting seat 32 and is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 32. A plurality of internal teeth are arranged sequentially along the inner circumference of the drive ring 51. The second motor 53 is mounted on the mounting seat 211 or on the inner wall of the fuel tank via a mounting plate. The second gear 52 is mounted on the output shaft of the second motor 53 and meshes with the internal teeth. The second motor 53 is used to drive the second gear 52 to rotate. In use, the second motor 53 starts, and its output shaft drives the second gear 52 to rotate. Since the second gear 52 meshes with the internal teeth on the inner side of the drive ring 51, the rotation of the second gear 52 will drive the drive ring 51 to rotate around its axis, thereby driving the connecting seat 32 to rotate around the mounting seat 211 as a whole, realizing the adjustment of the position of the arc rod 31, further affecting the deflection angle of the movable part 22, thereby increasing the flexibility and range of adjustment of the spray angle of the atomizing nozzle.

[0042] It should be noted that in other possible embodiments, the adjusting drive and the rotating drive can also adopt other transmission mechanisms, such as worm gear transmission, belt transmission or chain transmission.

[0043] Secondly, embodiments of this solution also provide a nozzle device, including a nozzle body 1 and an adjustment mechanism as described in any of the above.

[0044] Working Principle: When adjusting the spray angle of the nozzle during use, it can be achieved in two ways: First, by sliding the guide part 301 on the adjusting component 3 with the movable part 22, the movable part 22 deflects relative to the mounting body 21. Specifically, the first drive motor drives the first gear 41 to rotate, thereby causing the movable frame 222 to slide on the arc-shaped rod 31. The arc-shaped structure of the arc-shaped rod 31 allows the movable frame 222 to smoothly deflect along a preset arc trajectory, thus adjusting the angle of the nozzle body 1. Second, by rotating the driving component 5, the adjusting component 3 rotates around the mounting body 21. Specifically, the second motor 53 drives the second gear 52 to rotate, causing the drive ring 51 and the connecting seat 32 to rotate around the mounting seat 211, further adjusting the angle and position of the arc-shaped rod 31, thereby further adjusting the deflection angle of the movable part 22. These two adjustment methods can be used individually or in combination to meet the spraying needs of different scenarios.

[0045] This device, comprising a nozzle body 1, a mounting component 2, and an adjusting component 3, allows the movable part 22 to slide along the guide part 301, causing it to deflect relative to the mounting body 21. This deflection movement adjusts the angle of the nozzle body 1, enabling flexible adjustment of the spray angle. Simultaneously, the adjusting component 3 can rotate to further adjust the tilt angle of the guide part 301 relative to the mounting body 21, allowing the nozzle body 1 to be adjusted at multiple angles in three-dimensional space. This increases the adjustment range of the atomizing nozzle's spray angle, improving not only the nozzle's spray accuracy and atomization efficiency but also enhancing its adaptability to different working environments. Furthermore, the sliding connection mechanism between the guide part 301 and the movable part 22 ensures stable support for the nozzle body 1, making its adjustment and use smooth and reliable, and guaranteeing the nozzle's stability and durability during long-term use.
