Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigeration equipment technology, specifically to an energy-saving heat exchange device for refrigeration units. Background Technology
[0002] In existing refrigeration units, the heat exchange device is a key component, and its performance directly affects the energy consumption and cooling effect of the entire refrigeration system.
[0003] However, existing energy-saving heat exchange devices for refrigeration units still have certain problems in use:
[0004] In the operation of existing heat exchange devices, due to the conduction of heat, some heat is dissipated to the outside through the shell during the heat transfer process, resulting in heat loss and low heat exchange efficiency. This further causes the refrigeration unit to consume more electricity to achieve the expected cooling effect, and it cannot achieve efficient and energy-saving operation.
[0005] Therefore, we propose an energy-saving heat exchange device for refrigeration units to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an energy-saving heat exchange device for refrigeration units, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that, during the use of the heat exchange device, due to the conduction of heat, some heat will be dissipated to the outside through the shell during the heat transfer process, resulting in heat loss and low heat exchange efficiency. This further leads to the refrigeration unit needing to consume more electrical energy to achieve the expected cooling effect, thus failing to achieve efficient and energy-saving operation.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an energy-saving heat exchange device for a refrigeration unit, comprising a first tube box, a cold fluid inlet, a cold fluid outlet, and a partition plate. The upper end face of the first tube box is connected to the cold fluid inlet, the lower end face of the first tube box is connected to the cold fluid outlet, and a partition plate is welded to the middle of the first tube box.
[0008] A fixing flange is bolted to one side of the first pipe box, and a housing is bolted to one side of the fixing flange. A first heat insulation pipe is covered on one side of the outer surface of the housing, and a second heat insulation pipe is covered on the other side of the housing. A first clamping plate is fitted on the outer surface of the first heat insulation pipe, and a second clamping plate corresponding to the first clamping plate is fitted on the outer surface of the second heat insulation pipe. Fastening screws are threaded through the upper and lower ends of the first and second clamping plates, and two sets of the first and second clamping plates are arranged along the outer surface of the heat insulation pipe.
[0009] Using the above technical solution, the first tube box allows cold fluid to flow through a cold fluid inlet and outlet, and is separated in the middle by a partition plate. One side of the partition plate is connected to the shell via a fixed flange. The first and second heat insulation tubes outside the shell are respectively fitted with first and second clamping plates, which are connected by fastening screws at the upper and lower ends. The clamping force of the clamping plates on the heat insulation tubes can be adjusted to achieve orderly flow of cold fluid in the first tube box. The structure of the heat insulation tubes and clamping plates can not only provide heat insulation for the shell and reduce heat loss, but also ensure the stability of the heat insulation tubes through the fastening of the clamping plates, thus ensuring the efficient operation of the energy-saving heat exchange device of the refrigeration unit.
[0010] Preferably, a hot fluid outlet is connected to the upper outer surface of the housing, a hot fluid inlet is connected to the lower outer surface of the housing, and a second pipe box is provided on one side of the housing. The connection between the second pipe box and the housing is fastened by a connecting flange thread.
[0011] Using the above technical solution, the hot fluid enters the shell from the hot fluid inlet, completes the heat exchange inside the shell, and then flows out from the hot fluid outlet. The second pipe box is connected to the shell by a connecting flange and threaded fastening, ensuring that the connection between the two is tight and detachable. This realizes the heat exchange between the hot fluid and the cold fluid inside the shell, ensuring the heat transfer function of the energy-saving heat exchange device of the refrigeration unit. The threaded fastening method of the connecting flange facilitates the installation, maintenance and repair of the equipment.
[0012] Preferably, a connecting tube sheet is bolted between the flange of the second tube box and the flange of the shell, and a fixing tube sheet is bolted between the flange of the first tube box and the flange of the shell, and a plurality of heat transfer tubes are connected in flow between the connecting tube sheet and the fixing tube sheet.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting tube sheet and the fixed tube sheet are connected and fixed to the second tube box, the shell and the first tube box respectively by bolts. Several heat transfer tubes are connected between the two to form a heat exchange channel, so that the hot and cold fluids flow on both sides of the heat transfer tubes to transfer heat. This ensures the stable installation of the heat transfer tubes, provides an effective way for heat transfer between hot and cold fluids, realizes the efficient heat exchange function of the energy-saving heat exchange device of the refrigeration unit, and improves the energy-saving effect of the refrigeration unit.
[0014] Preferably, the heat transfer tube is designed in a ring shape, and a baffle is fixed on the outer surface of the heat transfer tube. Five sets of baffles are arranged alternately along the outer surface of the heat transfer tube, and the baffles have a trapezoidal structure.
[0015] Using the above technical solution, the heat transfer tube is designed in a ring shape, with baffles on its outer surface arranged alternately. When hot and cold fluids flow around the heat transfer tube, the baffles change the flow state of the fluid and increase the turbulence of the fluid. The ring-shaped heat transfer tube design increases the heat transfer area, and the baffles enhance the heat transfer effect of the fluid, making the heat exchange between hot and cold fluids more complete, thereby improving the energy efficiency of the refrigeration unit's energy-saving heat exchange device.
[0016] Preferably, a flange is bolted to the inlet of the cold fluid inlet, and an electric regulating valve is bolted to the top of the cold fluid inlet via the flange.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution and installing an electric regulating valve at the cold fluid inlet, the flow rate of the cold fluid can be precisely controlled, enabling the device to better adapt to different operating conditions and improve the energy-saving effect and operational stability of the refrigeration unit's energy-saving heat exchange device.

[0019] 1. The first and second heat insulation pipes are respectively wrapped on both sides of the shell. The heat insulation pipes are fixed to the shell by the cooperation of the first clamp, the second clamp and the fastening screw, which reduces heat loss and improves energy utilization efficiency. The second pipe box on one side of the shell is connected to the shell by the connecting flange and threaded fastening, which ensures the overall sealing and stability of the device and ensures the efficient operation of the heat exchange process. In this way, the energy-saving heat exchange function of the refrigeration unit can be effectively realized, the refrigeration efficiency can be improved and the energy consumption can be reduced.

The electric regulating valve can precisely adjust the flow rate of the cold fluid according to the actual operating conditions of the refrigeration unit. By flexibly controlling the input of cold fluid, the energy-saving heat exchange device of the refrigeration unit is always in a highly efficient operating state, achieving energy saving while meeting the requirements of refrigeration effect under different operating conditions.
