Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage tank technology, specifically to a storage tank capable of heat energy exchange. Background Technology

[0002] A heat exchanger is a device that transfers heat from one fluid to another. During feed drying, a significant amount of heat is generated, which can be recycled to avoid substantial resource waste. Therefore, heat exchangers are needed to fully utilize this heat and minimize energy loss.

[0003] Existing hot water storage tanks often use energy-intensive heating methods, which require separate energy consumption and result in additional energy waste. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems in the prior art by providing a storage tank capable of heat energy exchange.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A heat exchange storage tank includes an outer tank and an inner tank, a sealing cap that is sealed and fastened to the openings at the top of the outer and inner tanks, an exhaust channel formed on the sealing cap and communicating with the inner tank, a hot water inlet pipe that is sealed and fixed to the sealing cap and whose end penetrates the sealing cap, a condenser connected to the water inlet pipe, a steam pipe connected to the condenser, a cold water inlet pipe that is sealed and fixed to the sealing cap and whose end penetrates the sealing cap, a first water outlet pipe near the bottom of the outer tank that penetrates the inner cavity of the outer tank and the inner tank, and a circuit module disposed on the outer tank.

[0007] The storage tank is designed with an inner and outer tank connected together, forming an inner cavity between them. This effectively insulates against temperature changes, resulting in better heat preservation. An exhaust channel allows pressurized gases generated by high temperatures to be released, relieving internal pressure and preventing accidents. Hot and cold water inlets work together to regulate temperature, ensuring that the pre-treated water discharged from the first outlet meets the required temperature for fermented feed.

[0008] Preferably, a partition is formed between the inner tank and the outer tank to divide the cavity between the inner tank and the outer tank into an independent sealed space.

[0009] The function of the partition is to separate the chambers between the outer tank and the inner tank, forming independent sealed spaces. These independent sealed spaces can prevent local leakage of the inner tank and ensure normal use of other areas.

[0010] Preferably, the independent sealed space is filled with a heat-insulating interlayer.

[0011] Filling the independent sealed space with an insulating interlayer can further prevent heat from escaping from the inner tank and also prevent the low temperature outside the outer tank from cooling the hot water inside the inner tank.

[0012] Preferably, it also includes a second water outlet pipe that penetrates into the outer tank and the inner cavity of the inner tank near the bottom of the outer tank.

[0013] The second water outlet pipe serves to supply hot water for fermenting feed, and can also be used to draw out excess hot water to supply indoor heating equipment, thereby solving some indoor heating problems and saving energy.

[0014] Preferably, it also includes a drain pipe with a pipeline switch located at the bottom of the outer tank and penetrating the inner cavity of both the outer tank and the inner tank.

[0015] The purpose of setting up a drain pipe is to prevent impurities from settling at the bottom of the storage tank after prolonged use, which can contaminate the hot water supplied to the fermenting feed. Therefore, regularly draining the remaining hot water can clean the water in the storage tank and ensure the cleanliness of the water output.

[0016] Preferably, the circuit module is equipped with a sealing ring that circumferentially surrounds the circuit module.

[0017] The sealing ring can isolate the circuit module from contact with the storage tank body, prevent static electricity generation, and prevent accidental water spillage from damaging the circuit module.

[0018] Preferably, the axial direction of the air outlet channel is inclined from the longitudinal axis of the inner tank to a direction away from the longitudinal axis of the inner tank.

[0019] The inclined design of the vent channel ensures that the hot air is directed in the inclined direction when it is discharged from the vent channel, preventing the hot air from accumulating at the cover above the storage tank and flowing back to the sealing cover on the top of the storage tank. This prevents water from accumulating at the sealing cover and even contaminating the hot water inside the storage tank.

[0020] Preferably, a pressure switch is provided in the air outlet channel.

[0021] A pressure switch is installed inside the venting channel to allow hot gas to be released only when the pressure inside the storage tank reaches a certain level, keeping the venting channel closed under normal conditions to prevent other debris from entering the storage tank through the venting channel.

[0022] The present invention provides a heat exchange storage tank that condenses high-temperature steam into hot water through a condenser and injects it into the storage tank. By mixing with cold water, the temperature of the mixed water is controlled at the required temperature, and the water is discharged to the fermentation feed through the first outlet pipe, realizing the secondary use of energy and saving production costs.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a heat exchange storage tank includes an outer tank 1 and an inner tank 2, a sealing cover 3 that is sealed and fastened to the openings above the outer tank 1 and the inner tank 2, an air outlet channel 4 formed on the sealing cover 3 and communicating with the inner tank 2, a hot water inlet pipe 5 that is sealed and fixed to the sealing cover 3 and whose end penetrates the sealing cover 3, a condenser 6 connected to the water inlet pipe, a steam pipe 7 connected to the condenser 6, a cold water inlet pipe 8 that is sealed and fixed to the sealing cover 3 and whose end penetrates the sealing cover 3, a first water outlet pipe 9 that is near the bottom of the outer tank 1 and penetrates the inner cavity of the outer tank 1 and the inner tank 2, and a circuit module 10 disposed on the outer tank 1.

[0028] The storage tank is designed with an inner tank 2 and an outer tank 1 connected together, forming an inner cavity between them. This effectively insulates against temperature changes, improving the storage tank's insulation performance. The vent channel 4 allows for the discharge of pressurized gas generated by high temperatures, relieving internal pressure and preventing accidents. The hot water inlet pipe 5 and the cold water inlet pipe 8 work together to regulate temperature, ensuring that the pre-treated water discharged from the first outlet pipe 9 meets the required temperature for fermented feed.

[0029] In practical applications, hot steam is transmitted to the condenser 6 through the steam pipe 7. The condenser 6 condenses and liquefies the hot steam, producing highly flammable water that enters the inner cavity of the inner tank 2 through the hot water inlet pipe 5. With double insulation between the inner tank 2 and the outer tank 1, the hot water in the inner tank 2 can maintain a high temperature for an extended period. Since the operating temperature of the hot water is typically around 35 to 38 degrees Celsius, when needed, the cold water inlet pipe 8 is opened, injecting cold water into the inner tank 2 to regulate the temperature of the stored hot water. Once the temperature is properly adjusted, the first water outlet pipe 9 is opened, and the water is sprayed onto the fermenting feed, thus recovering heat and reusing the thermal energy.

[0030] In one embodiment of this utility model, a partition 11 is formed between the inner tank 2 and the outer tank 1 to divide the cavity between the inner tank 2 and the outer tank 1 into an independent sealed space.

[0031] The function of the partition 11 is to separate the chamber between the outer tank 1 and the inner tank 2, forming independent sealed spaces. The independent sealed spaces can prevent local leakage of the inner tank 2 and ensure normal use of other areas. In addition, it is more convenient to repair if damage occurs in a local area, without having to completely disassemble the inner tank 2 and the outer tank 1, thus improving maintenance efficiency.

[0032] One embodiment of this utility model shows that an independent sealed space is filled with a heat-insulating interlayer.

[0033] Filling the independent sealed space with a heat-insulating interlayer can further prevent the heat inside the inner tank 2 from dissipating, and can also prevent the low temperature outside the outer tank 1 from cooling the hot water inside the inner tank 2.

[0034] One embodiment of this utility model shows that it also includes a second water outlet pipe 12 that penetrates into the inner cavity of the outer tank 1 and the inner tank 2 near the bottom of the outer tank 1.

[0035] The function of the second water outlet pipe 12 is to supply hot water for fermented feed, and also to draw out excess hot water to supply water for indoor heating equipment, thereby solving a certain indoor heating problem and saving energy.

[0036] One embodiment of this utility model shows that it also includes a drain pipe 13 with a pipeline switch located at the bottom of the outer tank 1 and penetrating the inner cavity of the outer tank 1 and the inner tank 2.

[0037] The purpose of setting up the drain pipe 13 is to prevent impurities from settling at the bottom of the storage tank after prolonged use, which could contaminate the hot water supplied to the fermented feed. Therefore, regularly draining the remaining hot water can clean the water in the storage tank and ensure the cleanliness of the water output.

[0038] In one embodiment of this utility model, a sealing ring 14 is installed on the circuit module 10 to circumferentially enclose the circuit module 10.

[0039] The sealing ring 14 can isolate the circuit module 10 from contact with the storage tank body, prevent static electricity generation, and prevent accidental water spillage from damaging the circuit module 10.

[0040] In one embodiment of this utility model, the axial direction of the air outlet channel 4 is inclined from the longitudinal axis of the inner tank 2 away from the longitudinal axis of the inner tank 2.

[0041] The venting channel 4 is tilted so that the hot air is discharged from the venting channel 4 in the tilted direction, which prevents the hot air from accumulating at the cover above the storage tank and flowing back to the sealing cover 3 on the top of the storage tank, thus preventing water from accumulating at the sealing cover 3 and even contaminating the hot water inside the storage tank.

[0042] In one embodiment of this utility model, a pressure switch is provided in the air outlet channel 4.

[0043] A pressure switch is installed inside the venting channel 4, which allows hot gas to be released only when the pressure inside the storage tank reaches a certain level, keeping the venting channel 4 closed under normal conditions to prevent other debris from entering the storage tank through the venting channel 4.

[0044] The storage tank provided by this utility model can exchange heat energy. The high-temperature steam is condensed into hot water by the condenser 6 and injected into the storage tank. By mixing with cold water, the temperature of the mixed water is controlled at the required temperature and then discharged to the fermentation feed through the first water outlet pipe 9, realizing the secondary use of energy and saving production costs.

Furthermore, the scope of this application is not limited to the specific embodiments of the processes, apparatus, means, methods, and steps described in the specification.
