Abstract
Description
A filter for a refrigeration system Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of refrigeration technology, and in particular relates to a filter for refrigeration systems. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, filters used in general refrigeration systems are produced in three ways: First, by spinning the necked-down ends of the main pipe to form the connection of the external conduit. Although spinning is efficient, the spun joint is prone to cracking and requires annealing, making the production process complex and costly. Second, by welding mounting plates onto the inner wall of the main pipe to fix the filter. The disadvantages of this process are that welding and fixing take a long time, resulting in low production efficiency and high production costs. Third, when connecting the external conduit to the necked-down connection, the insertion depth of the external conduit is difficult to control, making standardized production impossible. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a filter for refrigeration systems that is simple to manufacture, securely fixed, crack-free, has standardized external conduits, and has low production costs.
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the following problem:
[0005] A filter for a refrigeration system includes a tube body and a filter screen. The tube body is a stainless steel straight tube. Copper pipe joints are welded to the inlet and outlet of the tube body, respectively. Two sets of axially spaced limiting protrusions are engraved or pressed on the inner surface of the inlet side of the tube body. A filter screen clamping groove is formed between the two sets of limiting protrusions. A filter screen is fixed on the filter screen clamping groove. Positioning protrusions are engraved or pressed on the inner surface of the copper pipe joint.
[0006] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the positioning protrusion is three or more protrusions formed by circumferentially spaced engraving, pressing or welding.
[0007] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the limiting protrusion is a protrusion ring or annular protrusion formed by circumferentially spaced engraving, pressing or welding.
[0008] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the copper pipe joint includes a straight pipe-type welding part, a tapered neck, and a straight pipe-type connecting part that are sequentially connected to the inlet or outlet of the pipe body, and the positioning protrusion is provided on the inner surface of the connecting part.
[0009] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the edge of the filter screen is fixed with an annular clamping part, and the clamping part is fixed on the filter screen clamping groove.
[0010] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the filter screen is an arc-shaped screen or a conical screen.
[0011] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, a conical spring is provided on the inner wall of the conical mesh to support the conical mesh.
[0012] The advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are:
[0013] 1. This utility model directly engraves or presses limiting protrusions and positioning protrusions on the inner wall of the pipe body and copper pipe joint, which is simple in production process, high in production efficiency and high in yield.
[0014] 2. This utility model uses copper pipe joints welded at the inlet and outlet of the pipe body, which prevents cracking and provides good sealing.
[0015] 3. This utility model directly engraves or presses limiting protrusions on the inner wall of the tube for snap-fit installation of the filter screen. The installation process is simple, fast, and highly efficient.
[0016] 4. This utility model directly engraves or presses positioning protrusions on the inner wall of the copper pipe joint, so that when welding external conduits, the insertion depth of the external conduits is consistent, and standardized production can be achieved.
[0017] 5. This utility model provides a conical spring on the inner wall of the conical filter screen, which can provide better support for the conical screen, strengthen the strength of the filter screen, and effectively extend the service life of the filter screen.
