[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0026] Please combine Figures 1-4 An energy recovery device for a polyester melt cooler according to this embodiment includes a melt cooler 1, an EG evaporator 2 is provided on one side of the melt cooler 1, a conveying component is provided on one side of the melt cooler 1 to circulate the heat medium between the melt cooler 1 and the EG evaporator 2, a control component is provided on the conveying component to control the flow rate of the heat medium, and a filter component is also provided on the conveying component to filter the heated heat medium.

[0027] The conveying assembly includes a cooler feed pipe 7 fixedly connected to the melt cooler 1. A heat medium circuit pipe 302 is fixedly connected to one side of the cooler feed pipe 7. An evaporator feed pipe 303 is fixedly connected to one end of the heat medium circuit pipe 302. The evaporator feed pipe 303 is fixedly connected to the EG evaporator 2.

[0028] The heat transfer medium forms a circulation loop between the melt cooler 1 and the EG evaporator 2, so that the heat energy generated by the melt cooler 1 can be transferred to the EG evaporator 2 for reuse, realizing energy recovery and improving energy utilization efficiency.

[0029] A first circulation pump 6 is provided on one side of the melt cooler 1. The water inlet of the first circulation pump 6 is fixedly connected to the cooler outlet pipe 301. The water outlet of the first circulation pump 6 is fixedly connected to one end of the cooler inlet pipe 7. One end of the cooler outlet pipe 301 is fixedly connected to the melt cooler 1.

[0030] The first circulation pump 6 provides power for the circulation of the heat medium inside the melt cooler 1, ensuring that the heat medium can fully absorb the heat of the polyester melt in the melt cooler 1, improving the heat exchange efficiency and ensuring the stable cooling effect of the melt cooler 1.

[0031] A second circulation pump 8 is provided on one side of the EG evaporator 2. The water outlet of the second circulation pump 8 is fixedly connected to one end of the evaporator feed pipe 303. The water inlet of the second circulation pump 8 is fixedly connected to the evaporator discharge pipe 9. One end of the evaporator discharge pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the EG evaporator 2.

[0032] This allows the heat transfer medium in EG evaporator 2 to circulate continuously, ensuring that the heat transfer medium fully releases heat in EG evaporator 2, providing a stable heat source for EG evaporation, while maintaining the stability of the heat transfer medium circulation and improving the reliability of the entire energy recovery system.

[0033] A supplementary heat medium pipe 10 is fixedly connected between the cooler inlet pipe 7 and the evaporator outlet pipe 9. The control components include an intelligent control valve 401 fixedly installed on the supplementary heat medium pipe 10, and an intelligent temperature sensor 402 for controlling the opening size of the intelligent control valve 401 is fixedly installed on the cooler outlet pipe 301.

[0034] The addition of heat transfer pipe 10 allows for timely replenishment of appropriate amounts of heat transfer medium according to system requirements during the heat transfer medium circulation process, ensuring the continuity of heat transfer medium circulation, maintaining stable system pressure, further optimizing the heat transfer medium circulation effect, and ensuring efficient energy recovery.

[0035] The top of the heat medium return pipe 302 is provided with an insertion interface. The filter assembly includes a ceramic filter 501 disposed inside the heat medium return pipe 302. An insertion plate 502 is fixedly installed on the top of the ceramic filter 501. The top of the insertion plate 502 passes upward through the insertion interface. Sealing strips 503 are fixedly installed on both sides of the insertion plate 502. A limiting block 504 fixedly installed with the heat medium return pipe 302 is sleeved on the outside of the insertion plate 502. Sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the limiting block 504. A limiting plate 505 is provided on the top of the insertion plate 502. Both ends of the limiting plate 505 extend into the interior of the adjacent sliding groove. One side of the limiting plate 505 is in contact with the top of the insertion plate 502.

[0036] The intelligent temperature sensor 402 monitors the temperature of the heat medium in the cooler outlet pipe 301 in real time. Based on the temperature data, it automatically controls the opening of the intelligent control valve 401 to precisely adjust the flow rate of the replenished heat medium. When the heat medium temperature is too high, the opening of the intelligent control valve 401 is increased to replenish more low-temperature heat medium and lower the heat medium temperature; when the heat medium temperature is too low, the opening of the intelligent control valve 401 is decreased to maintain a stable heat medium temperature. This achieves precise control of the heat medium flow rate and temperature, improving the automation level and stability of the energy recovery system.

[0037] The implementation principle of the energy recovery device for a polyester melt cooler in this embodiment is as follows: During the polyester production process, the polyester melt enters the melt cooler 1. The heat transfer medium circulates within the melt cooler 1 under the action of the first circulating pump 6, absorbing heat from the polyester melt and causing its temperature to rise. The heated heat transfer medium flows out of the melt cooler 1 through the cooler outlet pipe 301 and enters the circulating pump 6. In the cooler inlet pipe 7, a portion of the heat transfer medium passes through the heat transfer medium loop pipe 302 and the evaporator inlet pipe 303, and then enters the EG evaporator 2 under the action of the second circulating pump 8, transferring heat to the EG and causing it to evaporate, thus lowering the temperature of the heat transfer medium itself. The cooled heat transfer medium flows out of the EG evaporator 2 through the evaporator outlet pipe 9 and then returns to the heat transfer medium circulation system of the melt cooler 1 through the supplementary heat transfer medium pipe 10.

[0038] During the heat medium circulation process, the intelligent temperature sensor 402 monitors the temperature of the heat medium in the cooler outlet pipe 301 in real time. When the heat medium temperature is higher than the set value, the intelligent temperature sensor 402 sends a signal to the intelligent control valve 401, which increases the opening degree, allowing more low-temperature heat medium to enter the heat medium circulation system from the supplementary heat medium pipe 10, thereby lowering the heat medium temperature. When the heat medium temperature is lower than the set value, the intelligent temperature sensor 402 controls the intelligent control valve 401 to decrease the opening degree, maintaining a stable heat medium temperature.

[0039] Meanwhile, the heat medium passes through the ceramic filter 501 during circulation, which filters impurities in the heat medium. When the ceramic filter 501 needs to be cleaned or replaced, first pull the limiting plate 505 out of the sliding groove of the limiting block 504, then lift the insert plate 502 upwards to remove the ceramic filter 501 from the heat medium return pipe 302 for processing. After processing, insert the ceramic filter 501 into the heat medium return pipe 302, and install the insert plate 502, sealing strip 503, limiting block 504, and limiting plate 505 to ensure the sealing and stability of the filter assembly.

Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
