[0038] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The first aspect of this utility model describes a wraparound beam collision homogenizing structure, comprising a valve body 100, a housing assembly 200, and a homogenizing valve core 300. The valve body 100 has a homogenizing channel 110, and the homogenizing valve core 300 is installed inside the housing assembly 200, which in turn is installed inside the homogenizing channel 110. (See reference...) Figure 1As shown, the outer shell assembly 200 is installed in the homogenization channel 110; the outer shell assembly 200 defines an internal cavity, and the outer shell assembly 200 is provided with a feed hole 212 and a discharge hole 222. The feed hole 212 penetrates the outer shell assembly 200 radially to connect the internal cavity and the homogenization channel 110, and the discharge hole 222 penetrates the outer shell assembly 200 axially and communicates with the internal cavity. The homogenization valve core 300 is installed in the internal cavity. The material in the homogenization channel 110 enters the internal cavity through the feed hole 212, and then the material in the internal cavity enters the homogenization valve core 300 and collides or collides with each other before flowing out through the discharge hole 222. The homogenizing valve core 300 defines a homogenizing chamber 310. The side wall of the homogenizing chamber 310 is provided with a jet hole 311 that penetrates the homogenizing valve core 300. The homogenizing chamber 310 is connected to the discharge hole 222. There are multiple jet holes 311, and the multiple jet holes 311 form at least one collision group 312. The extension directions of the multiple jet holes 311 in the collision group 312 intersect at the center of the homogenizing chamber 310. When the material in the homogenizing channel 110 flows into the homogenizing chamber 310 through the feed hole 212 and the jet hole 311, it generates micro-jet. The multiple micro-jets in the collision group 312 collide in the homogenizing chamber 310 and then enter the discharge hole 222.
[0040] The enclosed beam collision homogenizing structure of this embodiment, by installing a shell assembly 200 inside the homogenizing channel 110 and installing the homogenizing valve core 300 inside the shell assembly 200, ensures that the material entering the homogenizing channel 110 will first collide with the shell assembly 200, rather than directly colliding with the homogenizing valve core 300. This reduces the impact of the material on the homogenizing valve core 300, reduces damage to the homogenizing valve core 300, extends the service life of the homogenizing valve core 300, and reduces the maintenance cost of the homogenizing valve core 300. The material then enters the jet hole 311 through the feed hole 212, and then collides or mutually collides within the homogenizing cavity 310 to achieve material crushing. The structure is simple and has low manufacturing cost. Multiple jet holes 311 can form multiple collision groups 312, and the jet holes 311 between different collision groups 312 can have different cross-sectional areas, which facilitates the diversity of the jet channels. The jet holes 311 are simple to process, easy to handle, and not prone to clogging, which can significantly improve homogenization efficiency.
[0041] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, the housing assembly 200 includes a first housing 210 and a second housing 220. The first housing 210 has a first slot 211, and the second housing 220 has a second slot 221. The first slot 211 and the second slot 221 cooperate to form an internal cavity. The feed hole 212 radially penetrates the first housing 210, and the discharge hole 222 axially penetrates the second housing 220. The first housing 210 and the second housing 220 can be connected by welding, fasteners, or other methods. The first housing 210 and the second housing 220 can be made of the same material or different materials, but they are preferably made of one or more of diamond, ceramic, and metal materials.
[0042] Correspondingly, the homogeneous valve core 300 is preferably made of one or more of the following materials: diamond, ceramic, and metal.
[0043] Reference Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment has multiple feed holes 212, which are spaced apart around the circumference. The number of feed holes 212 can be set to... Figure 2 The four shown are not limited to one or more shapes, such as three, five, or six, but the number can be adjusted according to the actual situation. The shape of the feed hole 212 can be one or more of the following: circular, polygonal, or elliptical. In this embodiment, no limitation is made.
[0044] It should be noted that the cross-sectional shape of the homogeneous valve core 300 can be as follows: Figure 2 The circle shown can also be designed as a polygon, ellipse, or other shapes as needed, and is not limited in this embodiment. The cross-sectional shape of the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 should be consistent with the shape of the homogeneous valve core 300 to ensure stable positioning of the homogeneous valve core 300.
[0045] In the embodiments of this application, a seal 400 and a connector 500 are also installed in the homogenizing channel 110. The connector 500 is connected to the valve body 100, and the seal 400 is disposed between the housing assembly 200 and the connector 500, sealingly connecting the seal 400 to the inner wall of the homogenizing channel 110. The seal 400 has a first discharge channel 410, and the connector 500 has a second discharge channel 510. The first discharge channel 410 connects to the discharge hole 222 and the second discharge channel 510. Specifically, the seal 400 is provided to ensure that the material in the homogenizing channel 110 can only enter the homogenizing valve core 300 through the feed hole 212, avoiding the material from being discharged without collision or mutual collision. The housing assembly 200 can be connected to the seal 400 as an integral structure or connected by welding, fasteners, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment. The connector 500 is connected to the valve body 100 to ensure that the housing assembly 200 and the homogeneous valve core 300 are accurately and stably positioned. The connector 500 can be connected to the valve body 100 by welding, threaded connection, fastener connection, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment.
[0046] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the multiple jet holes 311 of the collision group 312 are arranged at circumferential intervals. The number of jet holes 311 included in a single collision group 312 can be set according to actual conditions, and can be set as follows: Figure 3 The four shown can also be set to three, five, six, seven, eight, etc. The number of jet holes 311 included in a single collision group 312 can be adjusted according to the outer diameter of the homogeneous valve core 300. For example, if the outer diameter of the homogeneous valve core 300 is large, the number of jet holes 311 included in a single collision group 312 will be increased accordingly, and if the outer diameter of the homogeneous valve core 300 is small, the number of jet holes 311 will be appropriately reduced.
[0047] Furthermore, along the axial direction of the homogeneous valve core 300, the plurality of jet holes 311 of the collision assembly 312 can be as follows: Figure 4 As shown, they are located in the same radial plane, or they can be as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the collision occurs in multiple radial planes, and different collision methods can be used for different materials. For example, if the material is easily broken during collision, a specific collision method can be preferred. Figure 4 The multiple jet holes 311 of the collision group 312 shown are located on the same radial plane, which allows the material to collide simultaneously at multiple locations within the homogenizing chamber 310, improving the collision efficiency. If the material itself is difficult to break during collision, then this method can be preferred. Figure 3The multiple jet holes 311 of the collision group 312 shown are located on multiple radial planes. This ensures that regardless of the state of the material flow, one or more high-pressure jets will always hit the weakest point of the material, thereby accelerating the crushing of the material. Both of the above-mentioned collision methods can achieve cavitation, mutual collision, shearing, and turbulence effects, effectively solving the problems of particle size refinement, suspension, and coating of materials. In actual production, one or a combination of the above two collision methods can be rationally selected according to parameters such as particle size, morphology, and required pressure.
[0048] It should be noted that multiple collision groups 312 can be provided along the axial direction of the homogeneous valve core 300, and the multiple collision groups 312 are arranged at intervals. The shape of the jet orifice 311 can be one or more of the following: circular, polygonal, and elliptical. For example, multiple shapes of jet orifice 311 can be used in a single collision group 312, or different shapes of jet orifice 311 can be used in different collision groups 312.
[0049] In the embodiments of this application, the cross-sectional area of the jet orifice 311 is preferably greater than 0.001 square millimeters. That is, regardless of whether the multiple jet orifices 311 of the collision group 312 are located in the same radial plane or in multiple radial planes, the size of any one jet orifice 311 in this embodiment is preferably greater than 0.001 square millimeters. According to actual production experience, if the cross-sectional area of the jet orifice 311 is too small, it is easy to cause the jet orifice 311 to become blocked, thereby affecting production efficiency. As for the specific size of the jet orifice 311, it can be set according to the actual parameters of the material, and is not limited in this embodiment.
[0050] In the embodiments of this application, the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of jet holes 311 of the collision group 312 are preferably equal to ensure that the materials collide or collide with each other at the center position of the homogenization chamber 310, thereby improving the collision efficiency and collision quality. When the homogenization valve core 300 is provided with a plurality of collision groups 312, the cross-sectional areas of the jet holes 311 between different collision groups 312 can be set to be equal or unequal. For example, if... Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the homogeneous valve core 300 has only three, two, or four collision groups 312, and the spacing between adjacent collision groups 312 is small. Therefore, the cross-sectional areas of the jet holes 311 of the multiple collision groups 312 can be set to be equal to reduce manufacturing costs. Conversely, if the homogeneous valve core 300 has a large number of collision groups 312, and employs… Figure 3 If the collision group 312 shown and / or the spacing between adjacent collision groups 312 is large, the cross-sectional areas between adjacent collision groups 312 can be set to be unequal in order to balance the material collision pressure between each collision group 312, so that multiple collision groups 312 can obtain almost equal collision effects.
[0051] by Figure 3 For example, if the multiple jet holes 311 of the collision group 312 are located on different radial planes along the axial direction of the homogenizing valve core 300, the cross-sectional area of the jet holes 311 can be set to decrease sequentially along the material flow direction to balance the speed and pressure of the material when it collides with the material as it enters the homogenizing chamber 310 through the jet holes 311. In addition, if the axial length of the homogenizing chamber 310 is large, the material flow velocity entering the homogenizing chamber 310 through the jet holes 311 close to the homogenizing channel 110 is usually greater than the material flow velocity entering the homogenizing chamber 310 through the jet holes 311 far from the homogenizing channel 110. By differentiating the cross-sectional area of the jet holes 311, the above-mentioned flow velocity difference can be appropriately compensated, so that the material is basically in a constant pressure homogenized state, thereby improving the homogenization effect and efficiency.
[0052] Furthermore, to better achieve constant pressure homogenization and reduce the pressure drop generated when the material moves axially along the homogenization valve core 300, the distance between adjacent jet holes 311 can be increased sequentially along the material flow direction. In actual production, one or both of the above-mentioned methods of differentiating the cross-sectional area of the jet holes 311 and differentiating the distance between adjacent jet holes 311 can be used to obtain a better constant pressure homogenization effect.
[0053] The homogenizer according to the second aspect of the present invention includes the above-described enclosed beam collision homogenizing structure; since the homogenizer includes the above-described enclosed beam collision homogenizing structure, it has at least all the beneficial effects of the enclosed beam collision homogenizing structure, which will not be elaborated here.
