[0019] 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.

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6. In this embodiment of the present invention, a pressure stabilizing device for a reactor in the synthesis of mesitylene includes a fixed fluidized bed 1. A pressure sensor 8 is installed on the outer periphery of the fixed fluidized bed 1. The sensing end of the pressure sensor 8 is inserted into the inner cavity of the fixed fluidized bed 1. A pressure relief mechanism is installed on the outer periphery of the fixed fluidized bed 1 below the pressure sensor 8. A pressure replenishing mechanism is installed on the outer periphery of the fixed fluidized bed 1 at a position symmetrical to the pressure relief mechanism. A pressure reducing mechanism penetrating the inner cavity of the pressure replenishing mechanism is installed on the outer periphery of the pressure replenishing mechanism.

[0021] In this embodiment: First, liquid pseudotrimethylbenzene and liquid methanol are pressurized separately. Pseudotrimethylbenzene is pressurized to 0.4-0.6 MPa and heated to 300-350 degrees Celsius to become gaseous. Methanol is pressurized to 0.4-0.6 MPa and heated to 130-170 degrees Celsius to become gaseous. Then, the gaseous pseudotrimethylbenzene and methanol are fed into a fixed fluidized bed 1 for the synthesis of mesitylene under the action of a catalyst. During the synthesis process, the reaction pressure needs to be maintained at 0.3-0.5 MPa.

[0022] During the reaction process, pressure sensor 8 monitors the reaction pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 in real time. When the pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 is higher than the preset reaction pressure, the pressure relief mechanism opens to release the excess pressure into the pressure relief mechanism.

[0023] During the reaction, when the pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 is lower than the preset reaction pressure, the pressure-reducing mechanism, in conjunction with the pressure-replenishing mechanism, replenishes the pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 to ensure the reaction pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1, 2, 5 and 6. The pressure relief mechanism includes a connecting pipe 9 integrally formed on the outer wall of the fixed fluidized bed 1. A pressure relief pipe 10 is integrally formed on the lower outer periphery of the connecting pipe 9. A pressure relief tank 11 is installed at the output end of the pressure relief pipe 10. A pressure sensor 18 is installed at the bottom end of the pressure relief tank 11. The sensing end of the pressure sensor 18 is inserted into the inner cavity of the pressure relief tank 11. A sealing plug 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe 9. The sealing plug 19 in the reset state is located at the top opening of the pressure relief pipe 10. A guide rod 20 that penetrates to the outside of the connecting pipe 9 is fixedly installed at one end of the sealing plug 19. A spring 21 is abutted between one end of the sealing plug 19 and one end of the inner wall of the connecting pipe 9. The spring 21 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide rod 20.

[0025] In this embodiment: when the reaction pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 is greater than the preset maximum reaction pressure, the pressure acts on the sealing plug 19 through the connecting pipe 9. The sealing plug 19 is pushed by the force to slide the guide rod 20. At this time, the spring 21 is compressed. The moved sealing plug 19 is misaligned with the pressure relief pipe 10. The excess pressure enters the interior of the pressure relief tank 11 through the pressure relief pipe 10, so as to prevent the pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 from exceeding the preset maximum reaction pressure.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4. The pressure replenishment mechanism includes a pressure replenishment pipe 2 welded to the outer periphery of the fixed fluidized bed 1. A solenoid valve 7 is installed on the horizontal section of the pressure replenishment pipe 2. A pressure replenishment tank 3 is installed on the top of the pressure replenishment pipe 2. A downwardly protruding protruding pipe 15 is integrally formed on one side of the pressure replenishment pipe 2 below the pressure replenishment tank 3. A second pressure sensor 16 is installed at the bottom end of the protruding pipe 15. The inner cavity of the second pressure sensor 16 is connected to the inner cavity of the pressure replenishment tank 3. The sensing end of the second pressure sensor 16 is located in the inner cavity of the protruding pipe 15. The solenoid valve 7 and the first pressure sensor 8 are electrically connected through a controller.

[0027] In this embodiment: when the reaction pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 is less than the preset minimum pressure, the first pressure sensor 8 sends an electrical signal to the controller. The controller controls the solenoid valve 7 to open and controls the pressing mechanism to operate. At this time, the pressing mechanism pushes the gas inside the pressure tank 3 downward and presses it into the fixed fluidized bed 1 through the pressure tank 2. When the pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 reaches the preset pressure, the first pressure sensor 8 sends an electrical signal to the controller. The controller controls the solenoid valve 7 to close and simultaneously controls the pressing mechanism to reset.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4. The pressing mechanism includes an electric push cylinder 4 fixedly installed on the outer periphery of the pressure tank 3. A connecting plate 5 is installed on the top of the piston rod of the electric push cylinder 4. A vertical rod 6 that penetrates into the inner cavity of the pressure tank 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom end of the connecting plate 5. A piston plate 17 is installed at the bottom end of the vertical rod 6. The piston plate 17 is located in the inner cavity of the pressure tank 3.

[0029] In this embodiment: when the pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 is less than the reaction pressure, the controller controls the electric push cylinder 4 to move downward. The electric push cylinder 4 drives the connecting plate 5 to move downward, the connecting plate 5 drives the vertical rod 6 to move downward, and the vertical rod 6 drives the piston plate 17 to move downward, so that the gas in the pressure tank 3 is forced into the fixed fluidized bed 1 through the pressure pipe 2.

[0030] Once the pressure inside the fixed fluidized bed 1 reaches the reaction pressure, the electric pusher cylinder 4 can be reset under the control of the controller.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6. The outer circumference of the pressure tank 3 is integrally formed with a protruding No. 2 circulation pipe 13 and a replenishment pipe 14. The outer circumference of the pressure relief tank 11 is integrally formed with a protruding No. 1 circulation pipe 12. The No. 1 circulation pipe 12 and the No. 2 circulation pipe 13 are connected through a No. 1 pipe. A No. 1 air pump and a No. 1 valve are installed in the middle section of the No. 1 pipe. The replenishment pipe 14 is connected to the external raw material heating tank through a No. 2 pipe, and a No. 2 air pump and a No. 2 valve are installed in the middle section of the pipe.

[0032] In this embodiment: after excess pressure enters the pressure relief pipe 10, the third pressure sensor 18 monitors the pressure in the pressure relief tank 11 in real time. When the pressure exceeds the preset pressure, the third pressure sensor 18 sends an electrical signal to the controller. The controller controls the first air pump and the first valve to open, and transports the gas in the pressure relief tank 11 to the pressure replenishment tank 3. After the pressure in the pressure relief tank 11 drops to the preset pressure, the second pressure sensor 16 sends an electrical signal to the controller. The controller controls the first air pump and the first valve to close, so as to avoid the pressure in the pressure relief tank 11 being too high and causing pressure backflow into the fixed fluidized bed 1 when the sealing plug 19 is opened.

[0033] When the pressure in the pressure tank 3 is insufficient to provide additional pressure, the second pressure sensor 16 sends an electrical signal, and the controller controls the second air pump and the second valve to open. The second air pump draws external gasified raw materials into the pressure tank 3 to maintain the pressure in the pressure tank 3. When the pressure in the pressure tank 3 reaches the preset pressure range, the second pressure sensor 16 sends an electrical signal to the controller, and the controller then controls the second air pump and the second valve to close. It should be noted that both the first valve and the second valve are electromagnetic valves.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
