Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of evaporator technology, specifically, to an evaporator that facilitates fixing of the evaporator tubes. Background Technology
[0002] Evaporators are common devices in thermodynamic systems, widely used in refrigeration, air conditioning, chemical, and food processing industries. Their basic function is to evaporate liquids into gases by heating or depressurizing them. In refrigeration cycles, evaporators are typically used to absorb heat from the system, thereby lowering the temperature. In the working principle of an evaporator, the liquid absorbs heat through pipes or fins inside the evaporator, causing it to transform into a gas.
[0003] Because liquid flows both inside and outside the evaporator tube, especially the water flow inside the tube which is relatively fast, the pipe will vibrate. If it is not properly buffered and sealed, there is a risk of leakage. Conventional evaporator tubes are U-shaped, but after long-term use, scale will accumulate on both the inner and outer walls of the tube, making it difficult to clean. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an evaporator that facilitates the fixing of the evaporation tube, thereby solving the problem that the existing evaporator has a simple method of fixing the evaporation tube, which leads to the risk of liquid leakage.

Detailed Implementation
[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0031] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. Example 1:
[0032] This embodiment provides an evaporator that facilitates fixing the evaporation tube, specifically as follows: Figures 1-3 As shown, it includes:
[0033] The main body includes a tube 106, on which an output port 105 and an input port 107 are provided;
[0034] An open side cover is provided, the open side cover including an open cover body 103, the open cover body 103 is provided with a water outlet pipe 101 and a water inlet pipe 102, and a partition 113 is installed on the open cover body 103, the partition 113 being disposed between the water outlet pipe 101 and the water inlet pipe 102;
[0035] A closed side cover, comprising a closed cover body 110.
[0036] An evaporator assembly, comprising a plurality of evaporator tubes 114;
[0037] The connector includes two symmetrically arranged connecting discs 104, and a sealing ring 112 is provided on both sides of each connecting disc 104.
[0038] One connecting plate 104 is disposed between the open cover 103 and the tube 106, and another connecting plate 104 is disposed between the tube 106 and the closed cover 110; the connecting plate 104 is provided with a plurality of through holes, and a sealing ring 121 is disposed in the through holes. The sealing ring 121 is arranged in a ring shape in the through holes, and the evaporator tube 114 is inserted into the sealing ring 121. The sealing ring 121 is used to support the evaporator tube 114 and maintain a seal.
[0039] In use, water flows into the open cover 103 from the inlet pipe 102. Since the partition 113 presses on the connecting plate 104, the partition 113 completely separates the open cover 103. At this time, the water flows through some of the through holes on the connecting plate 104 and then into the corresponding evaporation tube 114, and then into the closed cover 110. After entering the closed cover 110, the water flows into another part of the evaporation tube 114 through the through hole on another connecting plate 104, and then flows into the open cover 103, and then flows out from the outlet pipe 101. At the same time, liquid medium is also added to the inlet 107. The liquid medium submerges the evaporation tube 114. When water flows through the evaporation tube 114, it will dissipate the temperature into the liquid medium, which will cause the liquid medium to begin to vaporize, and then be sucked away from the outlet 105.
[0040] By setting a closed cover 110, the evaporator tube 114 is straight instead of U-shaped, which facilitates the cleaning of scale on the tube wall of the evaporator tube 114 in the later stage. By setting a sealing ring 121, the interference fit between the evaporator tube 114 and the sealing ring 121 enables the sealing ring 121 to achieve a sealing function. Since the sealing ring 121 is elastic, it can reduce the vibration of the evaporator tube 114 and improve the operational stability. Example 2:
[0041] This embodiment further expands the sealing ring 121 based on the above embodiment, specifically as follows: Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the sealing ring 121 has an elliptical cross-section and is hollow, and the sealing ring 121 is fitted into the through hole.
[0042] The hollow sealing ring 121 has a stronger deformation capacity, which can be used to install and seal evaporator tubes 114 of different diameters within a certain range; and the sealing ring 121 is embedded in the through hole to prevent the sealing ring 121 from falling off.
[0043] Furthermore, the diameter of the through hole at the end away from the evaporator tube 114 decreases linearly, and a sealing gasket 120 is provided on the reduced diameter section. The sealing gasket 120 is annular, and the evaporator tube 114 is pressed on the sealing gasket 120.
[0044] Due to the reduced aperture, after the open cover 103 and the closed cover 110 are installed on the tube 106, the two connecting discs 104 will press the evaporator tube 114, causing the end of the evaporator tube 114 to press against the sealing gasket 120, thereby further enhancing the sealing effect and preventing leakage.
[0045] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again. Example 3:
[0046] This embodiment further extends the above embodiment, specifically as follows: Figures 2-4 As shown, a support assembly is provided on the tube body 106. The support assembly includes multiple support units arranged in a linear array, which are used to support the evaporator tube assembly. The support units provide support force to prevent deformation of the evaporator tube 114.
[0047] Furthermore, the support unit includes a first support plate 115 and a second support plate 116. The first support plate 115 is provided with an overflow slot 117 at its top. The second support plate 116 is provided with an airflow slot 118 at its top and a DC slot 119 at its bottom. The overflow slot 117 and the DC slot 119 have the same specifications. The opening depth of the airflow slot 118 is less than the opening depth of the overflow slot 117.
[0048] When liquid medium enters through inlet 107, it is positioned on one side of the first support plate 115. Once the liquid level is higher than the overflow outlet 117, the medium flows to the other side of the first support plate 115. The liquid medium then flows directly to the next support unit through the direct current outlet 119, allowing it to move in an S-shaped path within the tube 106, resulting in more uniform heat exchange between the evaporator tube 114 and the liquid medium. During this process, after the liquid medium vaporizes, it directly reaches the outlet 105 through the airflow outlet 118.
[0049] Furthermore, both the first support plate 115 and the second support plate 116 are provided with multiple sealing rings 121, which serve the same function as the sealing rings 121 on the connecting plate 104. The sealing rings 121 provide elastic buffering for the evaporator tube 114, reducing the vibration of the evaporator tube 114 caused by the flow of water and liquid media.
[0050] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again. Example 4:
[0051] This embodiment further extends the above embodiment, specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown, a hydraulic gauge 109 is installed on the closed cover 110, and a barometer 108 is installed on the tube 106. The barometer 108 is used to detect the air pressure in the tube 106 after the liquid medium in the tube has vaporized, to ensure that the evaporation efficiency is maintained at a suitable level; the closed cover 110 is used to detect the water pressure of the incoming water to prevent water leakage.
[0052] It also includes a mounting bracket, which includes a disassembly frame 111, on which the main body is mounted for installation.
[0053] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again.
[0054] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Any simple modifications or equivalent changes made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
