Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas-liquid coalescers, specifically a novel dual-function gas-liquid coalescer. Background Technology
[0002] To ensure effective liquid separation from gas and extend the service life of coalescing elements, a pre-filter is usually added before the coalescer. Currently, pre-filters and coalescers are mostly designed separately, which increases manufacturing costs. They are usually connected by a pipeline. Over time, the pipeline is subjected to scouring by the medium, and impurities are generated due to wear, causing blockage of the coalescing elements and resulting in poor gas-liquid separation.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, a novel dual-function gas-liquid coalescer is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel dual-function gas-liquid coalescer to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

The inner side of the annular card groove is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves, and the plurality of limiting spring pieces are respectively engaged with the plurality of limiting grooves.

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

[0020] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model provides a novel dual-function gas-liquid coalescer, including a lower housing 1, an upper housing 2 at the top of the lower housing 1, a partition 4 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the inner side of the upper housing 2, a plurality of filter elements 5 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the partition 4, and a plurality of coalescing filter elements 6 fixedly disposed at the top of the partition 4, with the plurality of coalescing filter elements 6 corresponding to the plurality of filter elements 5 respectively. A medium inlet 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the lower housing 1, and an annular retainer 12 is fixedly disposed on one side of the bottom of the inner wall of the lower housing 1. An annular groove 13 is formed on the side of the annular retainer 12 away from the inner wall of the lower housing 1. An annular locking block 14 is engaged inside the annular slot 13. A pre-filter 8 is fixedly installed on the side of the annular locking block 14 away from the annular slot 13. A blade separator 3 is fixedly installed in the middle of the inner side of the lower housing 1. Annular mounting seats 22 are fixedly installed in the middle of the inner side of both the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2. Several connecting slots 23 are opened at the top of the two annular mounting seats 22. Connecting blocks 24 are engaged inside the several connecting slots 23. Protective plates 25 are fixedly installed at the top between the several connecting blocks 24 located on the same horizontal plane. The middle of the two protective plates 25 Each filter element has several through holes 26, which correspond to several filter cartridges 5 and several coalescing filter cartridges 6. The pre-filter 8 is initially positioned by the engagement of the annular retainer 12 and the annular retaining block 14. Further positioning and fixing of the pre-filter 8 is achieved by the engagement of several limiting springs 16 and several limiting grooves 17. This design integrates the pre-filter 8 and the coalescing elements into the same housing, reducing manufacturing costs and on-site space requirements. Furthermore, the gas-liquid separation effect is significantly improved, achieving a 0.1-micron liquid separation efficiency of 99.95%. In addition, the operating pressure difference of the pre-filter 8 can be reduced. By using a larger force to pull the pre-filter 8, several limiting springs 16 are separated from several limiting grooves 17, and the pre-filter 8 is no longer limited, thus facilitating the quick disassembly and maintenance of the pre-filter 8. Several connecting blocks 24 are engaged with several connecting slots 23 to limit the two protective plates 25. The setting of the two protective plates 25 facilitates the stable limiting of several filter elements 5 and several coalescing filter elements 6, thereby ensuring the stable operation of several filter elements 5 and several coalescing filter elements 6.
[0022] The outer side of the annular locking block 14 is provided with several mounting slots 15, and each of the mounting slots 15 is fixedly provided with a limiting spring piece 16. The inner side of the annular locking slot 13 is provided with several limiting slots 17, and the several limiting spring pieces 16 are respectively engaged with the several limiting slots 17. A sealing gasket 18 is fixedly provided at the connection between the pre-filter 8 and the annular locking seat 12. A first connecting flange 19 is fixedly provided at the connection between the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2. A second connecting flange 20 is fixedly provided at the connection between the upper housing 2 and the lower housing 1. Several fixing bolts 21 are threaded at the connection between the first connecting flange 19 and the second connecting flange 20.
[0023] In use, the pre-filter 8 is further limited and fixed by the limiting springs 16 engaging with the limiting grooves 17 respectively. The sealing gasket 18 can improve the sealing performance between the pre-filter 8 and the annular seat 12. The first connecting flange 19 and the second connecting flange 20 can facilitate the connection and fixation of the lower housing 1 and the upper housing 2.
[0024] The lower shell 1 has a first coalescing liquid outlet 9 fixedly connected to the middle of its bottom end, the upper shell 2 has a second coalescing liquid outlet 11 fixedly connected to the bottom of both sides, and a purified medium outlet 10 fixedly connected to the top of one side of the upper shell 2.
[0025] In use, the first coalescing liquid outlet 9 facilitates the export of coalescing liquid from the lower housing 1, the second coalescing liquid outlet 11 facilitates the export of coalescing liquid from the upper housing 2, and the purified medium outlet 10 facilitates the export of purified medium.
[0026] In this embodiment, the pre-filter 8 is initially positioned by the engagement of the annular retainer 12 and the annular retaining block 14. Further positioning and fixing of the pre-filter 8 is achieved by the engagement of several limiting springs 16 with several limiting grooves 17. This allows the pre-filter 8 and the coalescing element to be designed within the same housing, reducing manufacturing costs and on-site space requirements. Furthermore, the gas-liquid separation effect is significantly improved, achieving a 0.1-micron liquid separation efficiency of over 99.95%. Simultaneously, it reduces the operating pressure differential of the pre-filter 8. After a period of use, by pulling the pre-filter 8 with a larger force, several limiting springs 16 separate from several limiting grooves 17, no longer limiting the pre-filter 8, thus facilitating quick disassembly and maintenance of the pre-filter 8. Several connecting blocks 24 engage with several connecting slots 23 to limit the two protective plates 25. The setting of the two protective plates 25 facilitates the stable limiting of several filter elements 5 and several coalescing filter elements 6, thereby ensuring the stable operation of several filter elements 5 and several coalescing filter elements 6.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
