[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, a tubular heat exchanger unblocking device includes a first mounting shell 1, a second mounting shell 2, a ring 3, a connecting pipe 4, a plugging cutter head 5, a water injection chamber (not shown in the figure), a water spray hole 6, a rotary joint 7, a Z-shaped pipe 8, a high-pressure pump 9, a PVC pipe 10, and a gear transmission assembly 11 (the working principle of which is prior art and will not be described).

[0030] The first mounting shell 1 and the second mounting shell 2 are fixedly connected, and the right end of the first mounting shell 1 is open;

[0031] Several circular rings 3 are fixed inside the first mounting shell 1, and a connecting pipe 4 is rotatably connected to the central hole of the circular rings 3 via a bearing.

[0032] The blocking cutter head 5 is connected to one end of the connecting pipe 4, which is open at both ends;

[0033] The water injection chamber is located inside the plugging cutter head 5 and is connected to the inside of the connecting pipe 4.

[0034] Several water spray holes 6 are opened on the plugging cutter head 5 and the water spray holes 6 are connected to the water injection chamber;

[0035] The rotary joint 7 is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe 4;

[0037] The gear transmission assembly 11 is fixed inside the first mounting housing 1 and connected to the connecting pipe 4.

[0038] To prevent the high-pressure water flow from causing the blockage cutter head 5 to break, the solution was specifically optimized, and the inner wall of the water injection chamber was made of high-strength alloy steel.

[0039] Secondly, in order to reduce the probability of particulate matter stagnation and blockage of the water injection hole, improve the flow efficiency, the water injection hole 6 adopts a fan-shaped or conical hole with a diameter of 1.5-2mm to reduce the turbulent resistance, and at the same time, after the subsequent completion of the pipe desilting, the device can be taken out as a whole, and then the flushing and cleaning can be carried out to flush out a small amount of particles accumulated in the water injection hole.
