Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas capture technology, and more specifically, to a carbon dioxide capture device. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon dioxide is a component of air. In terms of physical properties, carbon dioxide has a melting point of -56.6°C, a boiling point of -78.5°C, and a density greater than that of air (under standard conditions). It is soluble in water. In terms of chemical properties, carbon dioxide is chemically inert, has high thermal stability, cannot burn, and generally does not support combustion. It is an acidic oxide.

[0003] A negative pressure fan is typically installed on the outside of the trapping device to draw in outside air. This fan is usually fixed to the outside of the device. The suction effect is better when the fan's inlet direction is aligned with the outside wind direction. Natural outside wind helps to push air into the negative pressure fan, resulting in a lighter workload and better ventilation. However, when the outside wind direction is opposite to the fan's inlet direction, the fan requires more power to maintain normal airflow, and may even experience difficulty in drawing air in, leading to a decrease in the fan's efficiency.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a wind direction sensor is installed on the right side of the top of the fixed frame, and the wind direction sensor is electrically connected to the drive motor through a wire.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the fixed frame is provided with a sleeve hole, which is movably sleeved with the cylindrical tube, and a sealing ring is fixedly connected around the inner wall of the sleeve hole.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the driving gear meshes with the left side of the transmission rack plate, and the driven gear meshes with the left side of the transmission rack plate.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0022] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model provides a carbon dioxide capture device, including a device body 1. A direction adjustment component 2 and an air inlet component 3 are installed on the top of the device body 1. The direction adjustment component 2 includes a fixed frame 201 fixedly connected to the top of the device body 1. A drive motor 203 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the fixed frame 201. A drive gear 204 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 203. A T-shaped positioning strip 205 is fixedly connected to the right side of the inner wall of the fixed frame 201. A transmission rack plate 206 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the T-shaped positioning strip 205. The air inlet component 3 includes a cylindrical tube 301 movably sleeved on the top of the device body 1. A driven gear 305 is fixedly sleeved on the bottom of the outer side of the cylindrical tube 301. A wind direction sensor 202 is installed on the right side of the top of the fixed frame 201. The wind direction sensor 202 is electrically connected to the drive motor 203 through a wire. The drive gear 204 meshes with the left side of the transmission rack plate 206, and the driven gear 305 meshes with the left side of the transmission rack plate 206.

[0024] In this embodiment, the wind direction sensor 202 is a Campbell Scientific 05103, which can monitor the wind direction and transmit the wind direction data to the drive motor 203. The drive motor 203 drives the drive gear 204 to rotate. Through the meshing of the drive gear 204 and the transmission rack plate 206, the transmission rack plate 206 moves back and forth along the outer side of the T-shaped positioning strip 205. Through the meshing of the transmission rack plate 206 and the driven gear 305, the cylindrical tube 301 rotates. When the transmission rack plate 206 moves forward, the cylindrical tube 301 drives the wind-catching bucket 304 to rotate clockwise. When the transmission rack plate 206 moves backward, the cylindrical tube 301 drives the wind-catching bucket 304 to rotate counterclockwise. Thus, the direction of the wind-catching bucket 304 can be adjusted to the windward direction according to the wind direction, which can improve the efficiency of carbon dioxide capture in the air and reduce the energy consumption of the fan 303.

[0025] The top of the cylindrical tube 301 is fixedly connected to an air inlet pipe 302. A fan 303 is installed at the end of the air inlet pipe 302 away from the cylindrical tube 301. A wind-catching hopper 304 is installed on the outside of the fan 303. A protective component 4 is installed on the left side of the wind-catching hopper 304.

[0026] When the fan 303 starts, it can collect external air under negative pressure, so that the external air enters the interior of the device body 1 through the wind-catching hopper 304, the air inlet pipe 302, and the cylindrical pipe 301 in sequence, thereby realizing the capture of carbon dioxide in the air.

[0027] The protective component 4 includes a mounting frame 401 fixedly connected to the left side of the wind catcher 304. A filter screen 402 is installed on the inner side of the mounting frame 401. A mounting groove 403 is opened on the front side of the mounting frame 401. A mounting block 404 is fixedly connected to the front side of the filter screen 402. The mounting block 404 and the mounting frame 401 are fixedly connected by fixing bolts 405. A fixing hole 441 is opened on the side of the mounting block 404. A bolt hole 411 is opened on the front side of the side of the mounting frame 401.

[0028] The filter screen 402 can filter out flying insects and foreign objects in the air, preventing them from entering the interior of the device body 1 and attaching to the surface of the components, thus avoiding any impact. Furthermore, the installation groove 403, the installation block 404, and the fixing bolts 405 facilitate quick disassembly and assembly of the filter screen 402, making it easy to clean and maintain the filter screen 402.

[0029] The top of the fixed frame 201 is provided with a sleeve hole 211, which is movably connected to the cylindrical tube 301. A sealing ring 212 is fixedly connected around the inner wall of the sleeve hole 211.

[0030] The sealing ring 212 can seal the connection between the socket 211 and the cylindrical tube 301, preventing rainwater from entering the interior of the fixed frame 201, and thus preventing rainwater from entering the interior of the device body 1 through the gap between the cylindrical tube 301 and the device body 1.

[0031] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0032] The wind direction sensor 202, model Campbell Scientific 05103, can monitor wind direction and transmit wind direction data to the drive motor 203. The drive motor 203 drives the drive gear 204 to rotate. Through the meshing of the drive gear 204 and the transmission rack 206, the transmission rack 206 moves back and forth along the outside of the T-shaped positioning bar 205. Through the meshing of the transmission rack 206 and the driven gear 305, the cylindrical tube 301 rotates. When the transmission rack 206 moves forward, the cylindrical tube 301 drives the wind-catching bucket 304 to rotate clockwise. When the transmission rack 206 moves backward, the cylindrical tube 301 drives the wind-catching bucket 304 to rotate counterclockwise. Thus, the direction of the wind-catching bucket 304 can be adjusted to the windward direction according to the wind direction, which can improve the efficiency of carbon dioxide capture in the air and reduce the energy consumption of the fan 303.

[0033] The filter screen 402 can filter out flying insects and foreign objects in the air, preventing them from entering the interior of the device body 1 and attaching to the surface of the components, thus avoiding any impact. Furthermore, the installation groove 403, the installation block 404, and the fixing bolts 405 facilitate quick disassembly and assembly of the filter screen 402, making it easy to clean and maintain the filter screen 402.
