Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of three-phase separator technology, and in particular to a modular three-layer conventional angled herringbone plate structure three-phase separator. Background Technology

[0002] The three-phase separator is a key component in the anaerobic bioreactor, used for the separation of gas, liquid and solid phases. After the gas is collected, it is discharged through the riser of the three-phase separator, and carries a portion of the liquid upwards to complete the gas-liquid separation in the gas-liquid separator at the top of the anaerobic tank. The liquid phase enters the bottom of the anaerobic reactor through the internal circulation pipe to ensure the fluidization of the sludge at the bottom of the anaerobic tank.

[0003] Common herringbone plate three-phase separators only include the function of separating gas, liquid, and solid phases. They can separate gas, liquid, and solid phases, but they lack the function of quick assembly and disassembly of the herringbone plate. They cannot guarantee that damaged herringbone plates can be quickly replaced individually. It is easy for the herringbone plate to be welded to the outer frame structure of the three-phase separator. When some herringbone plates are damaged, they can only be repaired or replaced by welding or cutting, which affects the speed of replacing herringbone plates.

[0004] Therefore, in response to the problem that the above-mentioned three-phase separator with herringbone structure cannot quickly replace a single damaged herringbone plate, and requires cutting or disassembly of the whole unit for repair, resulting in low maintenance efficiency and high downtime costs, which restricts the sustainable operation of the equipment, there is an urgent need to design a new type of modular three-layer conventional corner herringbone structure three-phase separator. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the problem that common three-phase separators with herringbone plate structures cannot quickly replace a single damaged herringbone plate, requiring cutting or complete disassembly for repair, resulting in low maintenance efficiency and high downtime costs, thus restricting the sustainable operation of the equipment.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a modular three-layer conventional angled herringbone plate structure three-phase separator, including a dual-cavity gas collection box; it also includes an arc-shaped mounting plate, a first herringbone groove, an arc-shaped limiting groove, an arc-shaped limiting plate, a herringbone reflector, a connecting plate, and a second herringbone groove. Two arc-shaped mounting plates are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the dual-cavity gas collection box. Several first herringbone grooves are opened through the side of the arc-shaped mounting plate away from the dual-cavity gas collection box. An arc-shaped limiting groove is opened at the top of the arc-shaped mounting plate. An arc-shaped limiting plate is arranged inside the arc-shaped limiting groove. Several herringbone reflectors are arranged between the dual-cavity gas collection box and the arc-shaped mounting plate at positions corresponding to the first herringbone grooves. Connecting plates are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the dual-cavity gas collection box. Several second herringbone grooves are opened through the side of the connecting plate away from the dual-cavity gas collection box at positions corresponding to the herringbone reflectors.

[0007] Preferably, by unscrewing the bolts securing the arc-shaped mounting plate and the arc-shaped limiting plate, the arc-shaped mounting plate can be pulled out from inside the arc-shaped limiting groove. The damaged herringbone reflector is pushed towards the first herringbone groove, and then pulled out from inside the first herringbone groove. Subsequently, a new herringbone reflector is inserted through the first herringbone groove and then into the second herringbone groove. Finally, the arc-shaped mounting plate is inserted into the arc-shaped limiting plate and secured with bolts. The arc-shaped limiting plate limits the position of the herringbone reflector, realizing the modular and quick assembly / disassembly function of the herringbone plate. This solves the problem of common herringbone plate structure three-phase separators, which only include the separation function of gas, liquid, and solid phases. While they can separate gas, liquid, and solid phases, they lack the function of quick assembly / disassembly of the herringbone plate. This makes it impossible to guarantee the quick replacement of damaged herringbone plates. It is easy for the herringbone plate and the outer frame structure of the three-phase separator to be welded together. When some herringbone plates are damaged, they can only be repaired or replaced by welding or cutting, affecting the speed of herringbone plate replacement.

[0008] Preferably, the end of the herringbone reflector closest to the connecting plate is inserted into the interior of the second herringbone groove, and the position of one end of the herringbone reflector is fixed by the second herringbone groove.

[0009] Preferably, the end of the herringbone reflector furthest from the connecting plate passes through the first herringbone groove and fits into the arc-shaped limiting plate, thereby limiting the position of the other end of the herringbone reflector.

[0010] Preferably, a handle is provided in the middle of the top of the arc-shaped limiting plate. The arc-shaped limiting plate is fixed to the arc-shaped mounting plate by bolts, and the arc-shaped limiting plate can be lifted upward by the handle.

[0011] Preferably, three limiting rods are evenly spaced on the inner side of the arc-shaped mounting plate corresponding to the position of the herringbone reflector. The three limiting rods block the herringbone reflector and prevent it from being subjected to excessive impact force and detaching from the three-phase separator.

[0012] Preferably, the connecting plate has several first ventilation slots on the side away from the dual-cavity gas collection box, corresponding to the position of the herringbone reflector. The gas and liquid collected by the herringbone reflector are transported to the interior of the second ventilation slot through the first ventilation slots.

[0013] Preferably, the dual-cavity gas collection box has several second ventilation slots on its left and right sides corresponding to the positions of the first ventilation slots, and four lift pipes are provided on the top of the dual-cavity gas collection box. The gas and liquid inside the second ventilation slots move into the interior of the dual-cavity gas collection box. After entering the interior of the dual-cavity gas collection box, the gas and liquid move upward and are then lifted to the gas-liquid separator by the lift pipes.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. After loosening and removing the connecting bolts between the arc-shaped mounting plate and the arc-shaped limiting plate, the arc-shaped mounting plate can be pulled out as a whole along the axial sliding trajectory of the arc-shaped limiting groove. Then, apply axial thrust to the damaged herringbone reflector along its preset position towards the first herringbone groove, so that one end of it is disengaged from the second herringbone groove. After disassembly, it is disassembled through the guide rail of the first herringbone groove. When replacing, the assembly end of the new herringbone reflector is precisely inserted into the guide entrance of the first herringbone groove and pushed axially along the groove until its end is embedded in the snap-fit ​​position of the second herringbone groove. Finally, the arc-shaped mounting plate is reinstalled into the inner cavity of the arc-shaped limiting plate and secured in place by high-precision bolt pairs. The curved constraint surface of the arc-shaped limiting plate and the geometric contour of the herringbone reflector form a three-dimensional spatial limit, constructing a tool-free modular interface for disassembly and assembly, realizing the pre-calibration positioning and non-destructive rapid replacement function of the herringbone plate assembly.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides an embodiment: a modular three-layer conventional angled herringbone plate structure three-phase separator, including a dual-cavity gas collection box 1; it also includes an arc-shaped mounting plate 2, a first herringbone groove 3, an arc-shaped limiting groove 4, an arc-shaped limiting plate 5, a herringbone reflector 6, a connecting plate 7, and a second herringbone groove 8. Two arc-shaped mounting plates 2 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the dual-cavity gas collection box 1. Several first herringbone grooves 3 are formed through the side of the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 away from the dual-cavity gas collection box 1. An arc-shaped limiting groove 4 is provided at the top, and an arc-shaped limiting plate 5 is provided inside the arc-shaped limiting groove 4. Several herringbone reflectors 6 are provided between the dual-cavity gas collection box 1 and the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 at the position corresponding to the first herringbone groove 3. Connecting plates 7 are symmetrically provided on the left and right sides of the dual-cavity gas collection box 1. Several second herringbone grooves 8 are provided on the side of the connecting plate 7 away from the dual-cavity gas collection box 1 at the position corresponding to the herringbone reflectors 6. By unscrewing the bolts fixing the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 and the arc-shaped limiting plate 5, the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 is opened. Plate 2 can be pulled out from inside the arc-shaped limiting groove 4, pushing the damaged herringbone reflector 6 towards the first herringbone groove 3, and then pulling the damaged herringbone reflector 6 out from inside the first herringbone groove 3. Subsequently, a new herringbone reflector 6 is inserted through the first herringbone groove 3 and then into the inside of the second herringbone groove 8. Finally, the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 is inserted into the inside of the arc-shaped limiting plate 5 and fixed with bolts. The position of the herringbone reflector 6 is limited by the arc-shaped limiting plate 5, realizing the modular quick disassembly and assembly function of the herringbone plate. This solves the problem of common herringbone plate structure three-phase separators, which only include the separation function of gas, liquid and solid three phases. They can separate gas, liquid and solid three phases, but lack the function of quick disassembly and assembly of the herringbone plate. They cannot guarantee that the damaged herringbone plate can be quickly replaced. It is easy for the herringbone plate and the outer frame structure of the three-phase separator to be welded together. When some herringbone plates are damaged, they can only be repaired or replaced by welding or cutting, which affects the quickness of replacing the herringbone plate.

[0024] Please see Figures 2-5 In this embodiment, the end of the herringbone reflector 6 near the connecting plate 7 is inserted into the interior of the second herringbone groove 8, and the position of one end of the herringbone reflector 6 is fixed by the second herringbone groove 8. The end of the herringbone reflector 6 away from the connecting plate 7 passes through the first herringbone groove 3 and fits against the arc-shaped limiting plate 5, and the position of the other end of the herringbone reflector 6 is limited by the arc-shaped limiting plate 5. A handle 9 is provided in the middle of the top of the arc-shaped limiting plate 5. The arc-shaped limiting plate 5 is fixed to the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 by bolts, and the arc-shaped limiting plate 5 can be lifted upward by the handle 9.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-5In this embodiment, three limiting rods 10 are equally spaced on the inner side of the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 corresponding to the position of the herringbone reflector 6. The three limiting rods 10 block the herringbone reflector 6 to prevent it from being detached from the three-phase separator due to excessive impact force. Several first ventilation slots 11 are opened on the side of the connecting plate 7 away from the dual-cavity gas collection box 1, corresponding to the position of the herringbone reflector 6. The gas and liquid collected by the herringbone reflector 6 are transported to the interior of the second ventilation slot 12 through the first ventilation slots 11. Several second ventilation slots 12 are opened on the left and right sides of the dual-cavity gas collection box 1, corresponding to the positions of the first ventilation slots 11. Four lifting pipes 13 are provided on the top of the dual-cavity gas collection box 1. The gas and liquid inside the second ventilation slots 12 move into the interior of the dual-cavity gas collection box 1. After entering the interior of the dual-cavity gas collection box 1, the gas and liquid move upward and are then lifted to the gas-liquid separator by the lifting pipes 13.

[0026] During operation, the gas and liquid move upwards in the tank. When passing through the three-phase separator, they are blocked by the herringbone reflector 6. At this time, the gas and liquid collected by the herringbone reflector 6 are transported through the first vent 11 to the inside of the second vent 12. The gas and liquid inside the second vent 12 move into the inside of the dual-cavity gas collection box 1. After entering the inside of the dual-cavity gas collection box 1, the gas and liquid move upwards and are then lifted to the gas-liquid separator by the lift pipe 13. When a damaged herringbone reflector 6 needs to be replaced, after loosening and removing the connecting bolts between the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 and the arc-shaped limiting plate 5, the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 can be pulled out as a whole along the axial sliding trajectory of the arc-shaped limiting groove 4. Then the damaged herringbone reflector 6 can be removed. Plate 6 is pushed axially towards the first herringbone groove 3 along its preset station, causing one end to detach from the second herringbone groove 8. It is then disassembled via the guide rail of the first herringbone groove 3. During replacement, the assembly end of the new herringbone reflector plate 6 is precisely inserted into the guide entrance of the first herringbone groove 3 and pushed axially along the groove until its end is embedded in the snap-fit ​​position of the second herringbone groove 8. Finally, the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 is reinstalled into the inner cavity of the arc-shaped limiting plate 5 and secured in situ using high-precision bolt pairs. The curved constraint surface of the arc-shaped limiting plate 5 and the geometric contour of the herringbone reflector plate 6 form a three-dimensional spatial limit, creating a tool-free modular interface for disassembly and assembly, and realizing the pre-calibration positioning and non-destructive rapid replacement function of the herringbone plate assembly.

[0027] Through the above steps, by unscrewing the bolts securing the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 and the arc-shaped limiting plate 5, the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 can be pulled out from inside the arc-shaped limiting groove 4. The damaged herringbone reflector 6 is pushed towards the first herringbone groove 3, and then the damaged herringbone reflector 6 is pulled out from inside the first herringbone groove 3. Subsequently, a new herringbone reflector 6 is inserted through the first herringbone groove 3 and then into the inside of the second herringbone groove 8. Finally, the arc-shaped mounting plate 2 is inserted into the inside of the arc-shaped limiting plate 5 and secured with bolts. The arc-shaped limiting plate 5 then controls the herringbone reflector 6. The location is limited, enabling modular and quick assembly / disassembly of the herringbone plate. This addresses the common herringbone plate structure three-phase separator, which only includes gas, liquid, and solid phase separation. While it can separate gas, liquid, and solid phases, it lacks the function of quick assembly / disassembly of the herringbone plate. This makes it impossible to guarantee the quick replacement of damaged herringbone plates. It is easy for the herringbone plate to be welded to the outer frame structure of the three-phase separator. When some herringbone plates are damaged, they can only be repaired or replaced by welding or cutting, affecting the speed of herringbone plate replacement.
