Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an anti-fogging ventilation cooling tower, specifically an anti-fogging and water-saving ventilation tower, belonging to the technical field of ventilation cooling towers. Background Technology

[0002] Ventilation tower defogging is a technology used to reduce or eliminate white plumes produced by cooling towers. Plumes are usually formed by the cooling and condensation of tiny liquid particles caused by the mixing of hot, humid air inside the cooling tower with cold air from the outside. This phenomenon not only affects the visibility of the surrounding environment but may also make the roads around the cooling tower slippery, affecting the normal inspection by workers. The application of defogging technology can effectively reduce the impact of cooling towers on the surrounding environment, improve work safety, and also help save water resources.

[0003] Traditional ventilation towers typically have their heat exchange systems located on the side of the tower. This setup requires a complex support structure to ensure the stability of the heat exchange system, resulting in high construction costs, difficult maintenance, and increased space requirements. Furthermore, heat exchange from the side of the tower makes it difficult to control the temperature and humidity distribution inside the tower, thus affecting the defogging effect.

[0004] To address these issues, we have developed an anti-fogging and water-saving ventilation tower. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides an anti-fogging and water-saving ventilation tower. The specific technical solution is as follows:

[0006] A fog-eliminating and water-saving ventilation tower includes a tower body. Multiple heat exchange modules are installed inside the tower body. Each heat exchange module includes multiple heat exchange components, each heat exchange component including fins and heat-conducting pipes. Mounting plates are connected between the fins. A fixing plate is provided at the lower end of each heat exchange module. A fixing rod is connected to the lower end of the fixing plate. A connecting plate is connected to the lower end of the fixing rod. Both ends of each heat-conducting pipe are connected to pipe heads, and connecting components are provided at the outer ends of the pipe heads.

[0007] Preferably, the tower body has multiple sets of circulation pipes connected to its side end, each set of circulation pipes being connected to a set of heat exchange modules, and the heat exchange components within the same heat exchange module being connected through pipe heads.

[0008] Preferably, the fins and heat pipes are made of alloy material with good thermal conductivity, high strength and corrosion resistance. The heat pipes are connected to the center end of the fins, and each fin in the same heat exchange assembly is connected by a heat pipe.

[0009] Preferably, the mounting plate is located at the upper end of the fixing plate, and the two plates have corresponding connecting holes. Corrosion-resistant and high-strength stainless steel alloy bolts are installed in the connecting holes. The ends of the heat pipes are located on the same side. Both the mounting plate and the fixing plate are made of corrosion-resistant and high-strength stainless steel alloy.

[0010] Preferably, the outer end of the tube head is connected to a first sealing ring, and the connecting assembly includes an upper connecting sleeve and a lower connecting sleeve. The upper connecting sleeve and the lower connecting sleeve are made of the same material as the heat-conducting tube, and the inner walls of the upper connecting sleeve and the lower connecting sleeve are connected to a second sealing ring.

[0011] Preferably, the upper connecting sleeve is connected to two sleeve blocks at both ends, and a fixing bolt is slidably connected inside the sleeve block. The fixing bolt is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel alloy bolt. A sliding plate is connected to the outer end of the fixing bolt, and the sliding plate is slidably connected inside the sleeve block. The lower connecting sleeve is connected to two threaded tubes at both ends, and the fixing bolt is threadedly connected inside the threaded tubes.

[0012] Preferably, a drain pipe is connected to the lower end of the tower body, a duct is connected to the upper end of the tower body, a fan is installed inside the duct, a water distribution system and packing are installed inside the tower body, a connecting plate is connected to the upper end of the water distribution system, and an air inlet is provided at the lower end of the tower body.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This defogging and water-saving ventilation tower incorporates a heat exchange module inside the tower body. Circulating hot water enters the heat exchange module, absorbs the cold air from the outside, and cools down to become secondary hot water. This causes water vapor to condense into droplets and drip back into the tower body, significantly reducing the evaporative heat load of the circulating water and the amount of evaporation, thus achieving water saving and defogging. Compared to traditional towers with heat exchange modules located on the side, the internal heat exchange module can more effectively utilize the space inside the tower, making the heat exchange process more compact and improving heat exchange efficiency. Furthermore, the internal heat exchange module can better control the temperature and humidity distribution inside the tower, further enhancing the defogging effect.

[0015] 2. This anti-fogging and water-saving ventilation tower divides the heat exchange module into multiple heat exchange components, which are connected by connecting components. This allows for modular processing of the heat exchange system. When a heat exchange component is damaged, the connecting components at both ends can be disassembled to separate the heat exchange component from the heat exchange components on both sides. This allows only the damaged heat exchange component to be replaced without large-scale disassembly of the entire heat exchange system, greatly reducing the manpower, material resources and time costs required for maintenance.

[0016] 3. This anti-fogging and water-saving ventilation tower is equipped with a connecting plate, a fixing rod, and a fixing plate. The fixing plate is used to connect and fix the heat exchange module, while the connecting plate is connected to the upper end of the water distribution system inside the tower. There is no need to set up a separate connection structure to support the heat exchange system. Compared with the traditional heat exchange system set on the side of the tower body, the structure of the entire ventilation tower is simpler. In addition, during the construction phase, it can save the additional support structure, which can reduce material and installation costs. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 — Figure 7The system includes a tower body 1, inside which multiple heat exchange modules 2 are installed.

Each fin 4 in the heat exchange component 3 is connected by a heat pipe 5, thereby connecting and fixing each fin 4 in the same heat exchange component 3 together. Both ends of the heat pipe 5 are connected to pipe heads 10, and the pipe heads 10 at both ends of the heat pipe 5 are located on the same side, so as to facilitate the alignment and connection of adjacent heat pipes 5. The heat exchange components 3 in the same heat exchange module 2 are all connected through pipe heads 10. Multiple sets of circulation pipes 12 are connected to the side end of the tower body 1. Each set of circulation pipes 12 is connected to a set of heat exchange modules 2. The circulation pipes 12 are used to connect to the external circulating hot water system, thereby continuously providing heat to the heat exchange module 2.

[0027] A mounting plate 6 connects the fins 4. A fixing plate 7 is located at the lower end of the heat exchange module 2. The mounting plate 6 is located above the fixing plate 7, which supports and fixes the mounting plate 6. Corresponding connection holes are provided in both plates, and corrosion-resistant, high-strength stainless steel alloy bolts are installed in these holes to prevent corrosion by moisture, thus ensuring a stable connection between the mounting plate 6 and the fixing plate 7. Both the mounting plate 6 and the fixing plate 7 are made of corrosion-resistant, high-strength stainless steel alloy to ensure their structural strength and extend their service life. 7 is connected to a fixed rod 8 at the lower end, and a connecting plate 9 is connected to the lower end of the fixed rod 8.

A sliding plate 1106 is connected to the outer end of the fixing bolt 1105. The sliding plate 1106 is slidably connected inside the sleeve 1104 to prevent the fixing bolt 1105 from falling out of the upper connecting sleeve 1101, thereby preventing the fixing bolt 1105 from being lost and facilitating the installation of the fixing bolt 1105. Threaded tubes 1107 are connected to both ends of the lower connecting sleeve 1102. The fixing bolt 1105 is threadedly connected inside the threaded tube 1107 to connect and fix the upper connecting sleeve 1101 and the lower connecting sleeve 1102 together.
