Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of condenser technology, specifically to a condenser for copper oxide production. Background Technology

[0002] In the copper oxide production process, the condenser plays a crucial role. The quality of the condenser's inlet water directly affects its operating efficiency and service life. Currently, the most common condenser inlet water filtration method is the traditional fixed screen filter. While this type of filter can intercept impurities such as sediment, rust, and algae in the water to a certain extent, preventing them from entering the condenser and causing problems such as pipe blockage, wear, and reduced heat transfer efficiency, it is still a significant factor.

[0003] However, such traditional filters have significant drawbacks. As the filtration process continues, impurities accumulate on the filter screen, causing the pores to gradually shrink, increasing water flow resistance, and consequently reducing the condenser's inlet water flow and deteriorating cooling efficiency. To maintain normal filtration, frequent manual cleaning of the filter screen is required. However, manual cleaning not only consumes a lot of manpower, resources, and time, but also requires production shutdowns, severely impacting the continuity and efficiency of copper oxide production. Moreover, during the cleaning process, the filter screen may be damaged due to improper handling, further shortening its lifespan and increasing production costs.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a condenser inlet water filter for copper oxide production that can achieve self-cleaning function, in order to solve many shortcomings in the existing technology and improve the stability and efficiency of condenser operation in the copper oxide production process. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a condenser for copper oxide production.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0007] A condenser for copper oxide production includes a cylinder, a drain pipe on the left side of the outer wall of the cylinder, a water inlet pipe on the right side of the outer wall of the cylinder, a sewage pipe on the right side of the outer wall of the cylinder and below the water inlet pipe, a valve on the sewage pipe, and a motor on the bottom wall of the cylinder.

[0008] The cylinder is fitted with a filter cartridge. The filter cartridge has a round tube at both the top and bottom ends of its outer wall. The outer wall of the round tube is rotatably connected to the top and bottom end walls of the cylinder through a bearing. The bottom end wall of the round tube is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor through a coupling.

[0009] A connecting pipe is provided on the top wall of the first cylinder, and a valve is provided on the connecting pipe. A second cylinder is provided on the top wall of the connecting pipe, a drain pipe is provided on the left side wall of the outer wall of the second cylinder, and a water inlet pipe is provided on the right side wall of the outer wall of the second cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the filter cartridge includes a screen, an upper baffle, a lower baffle, and side plates. The screen is disposed between the upper baffle and the lower baffle, and a plurality of side plates are disposed on the outer wall of the screen.

[0011] Furthermore, the multiple side plates are arranged in a circumferentially spaced manner on the outer wall of the screen.

[0012] Furthermore, the outer ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylinder through a bearing seat, and the inner ring of the bearing is interference-fitted to the outer wall of the cylinder.

[0013] Furthermore, the filter cartridge and the connecting pipe are connected by a circular tube.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] The filter of this invention can achieve self-cleaning operation. When the filter cartridge needs to be cleaned, there is no need to stop the entire copper oxide production process. The filter cartridge is rotated by a motor, and the cooling water in the condenser circuit is introduced into the filter cartridge. The cooling water flows from the inside to the outside to wash away the impurities on the outer wall of the filter cartridge, and the impurities are discharged through the drain pipe. This process can be carried out simultaneously during the production process, which greatly improves the continuity and efficiency of copper oxide production.

[0016] This invention achieves self-cleaning, reducing the frequency and workload of manual cleaning. It eliminates the need for dedicated personnel to perform frequent filter cleaning, thus lowering labor costs. At the same time, it avoids additional equipment wear and material consumption caused by manual cleaning, reducing material costs. Furthermore, the self-cleaning process is fast and efficient, eliminating the need for long production shutdowns to wait for cleaning to complete, saving a significant amount of time.

[0017] The self-cleaning function of this invention can promptly remove impurities from the outer wall of the filter cartridge, ensuring unobstructed filter screen pores and stabilizing the condenser water flow, thereby maintaining the condenser's efficient cooling effect, improving the stability and reliability of condenser operation, and contributing to the overall quality and stability of copper oxide production.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] See Figure 1-2 As shown, a condenser for copper oxide production includes a cylinder 1, a drain pipe 2 on the left side of the outer wall of the cylinder 1, a water inlet pipe 3 on the right side of the outer wall of the cylinder 1, a sewage pipe 4 on the right side of the outer wall of the cylinder 1 and below the water inlet pipe 3, a valve 5 on the sewage pipe 4, and a motor 6 on the bottom wall of the cylinder 1.

[0025] A filter cylinder 7 is embedded inside the cylinder 1. The filter cylinder 7 has a round tube 8 at both the upper and lower ends of its outer wall. The outer wall of the round tube 8 is rotatably connected to the upper and lower end walls of the cylinder 1 through a bearing. The bottom end wall of the bottom round tube 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 6 through a coupling.

[0026] A connecting pipe 9 is provided on the top wall of cylinder 1, a valve 2 10 is provided on the pipe of connecting pipe 9, a cylinder 2 11 is provided on the top wall of connecting pipe 9, a drain pipe 2 12 is provided on the left side wall of the outer wall of cylinder 2 11, and a water inlet pipe 2 13 is provided on the right side wall of the outer wall of cylinder 2 11.

[0027] Furthermore, the filter cartridge 7 includes a screen, an upper baffle, a lower baffle, and side plates. The screen is located between the upper baffle and the lower baffle, and multiple side plates are located on the outer wall of the screen. Cooling water enters the cylinder 1 through the inlet pipe 3, and after being filtered by the filter cartridge 7, it enters the condenser through the drain pipe 2.

[0028] Furthermore, multiple side plates are arranged in a circumferential gap on the outer wall of the screen to prevent cooling water from flowing through the gap between the filter cylinder 7 and the cylinder-1 into the drain pipe-2.

[0029] Furthermore, the outer ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylinder 1 through the bearing housing, and the inner ring of the bearing is interference-fitted to the outer wall of the tube 8. The bearing fixes the tube 8, facilitating the rotation of the tube 8 through the bearing.

[0030] Furthermore, the filter cartridge 7 is connected to the connecting pipe 9 via a circular pipe 8. Cooling water from the condenser's internal circuit is introduced into the filter cartridge 7 through the drain pipe 12, the circular cylinder 11, the connecting pipe 9, and the circular pipe 8. As the cooling water flows out from the inside of the filter cartridge 7 to the outside, it washes away impurities on the outer wall of the filter cartridge 7 and discharges them to the outside of the circular cylinder 1 through the drain pipe 4, thus achieving a self-cleaning operation for the filter cartridge 7.

[0031] For those skilled in the art, all electrical components and parts in this case are general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structures and principles can be known to those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods. All models are compatible with this solution and can operate normally. All electrical components in this case are connected to their compatible power supplies through wires. According to the actual situation, a suitable controller is selected to meet the control requirements. The specific connection and control sequence should refer to the working principle below, and the electrical connection is completed by the sequential operation of each electrical component. The detailed connection method is a well-known technology in the art, and the electrical control will not be described further.

[0032] One specific application of this embodiment is:

[0033] Normal filtration workflow

[0034] First, connect drain pipe 12 and drain pipe 212 reliably to the inlet and outlet pipes of the condenser, respectively. This connection step is crucial as it ensures that a complete and effective water circulation system is formed between the filter and the condenser. Then, cooling water enters from inlet pipe 13. When motor 6 starts, power is transmitted to the circular pipe 8 through the motor, thereby driving the filter cartridge 7 to start rotating.

[0035] During the rotation of the filter cartridge 7, cooling water continuously flows into the cylinder 1 through the inlet pipe 3. Due to the rotation of the filter cartridge 7, the cooling water can contact the filter cartridge 7 more evenly. At this time, the filter cartridge 7 plays a filtering role, and impurities such as mud, rust, and algae in the water are intercepted on the outer wall of the filter cartridge 7. The filtered clean cooling water then smoothly enters the condenser through the drain pipe 2, providing a stable and clean cooling water source for the condenser and ensuring the normal operation of the condenser.

[0036] After heat exchange is completed in the condenser, the cooling water, carrying the heat absorbed from the production process, flows out of the condenser through drain pipe 212, then passes through cylinder 211 and water inlet pipe 213 in sequence, and is finally discharged from the entire system, completing a complete water cycle.

[0037] Filter cartridge self-cleaning process

[0038] After a period of normal filtration, the impurities attached to the outer wall of the filter cartridge 7 gradually increase, affecting the filtration effect. At this time, the filter cartridge 7 needs to be self-cleaned. Then, the motor 6 is restarted to allow the round tube 8 to drive the filter cartridge 7 to continue rotating.

[0039] Next, valve 10 and valve 5 are opened in sequence. At this time, the cooling water in the condenser circuit will change its flow direction and flow out from drain pipe 12. It will pass through cylinder 11, connecting pipe 9 and cylinder 8 in sequence, and finally be introduced into filter cartridge 7. Since filter cartridge 7 is rotating, the cooling water entering filter cartridge 7 will form a rotating water flow and flow out from the inside of filter cartridge 7 to the outside. This rotating water flow can generate a strong scouring force to thoroughly wash away the impurities attached to the outer wall of filter cartridge 7.

[0040] The impurities washed off will be discharged out of the cylinder 1 along with the water flow through the drain pipe 4, thereby realizing the self-cleaning operation of the filter cartridge 7. After the self-cleaning is completed, close valve 10 and valve 5, and the filter can return to normal filtration operation and continue to provide clean water to the condenser.

[0041] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, nor is the present utility model limited to the examples given above. Any changes, alterations, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should be protected by the present utility model.
