Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive element, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
[0025] This embodiment relates to an anti-surge dust removal system, referring to... Figures 1-2The system includes: a fan 100, a dust collection device 200, a first electric valve 400, a first controller 500, and a machine tool 300. The fan 100 is connected to the outlet of the dust collection device 200 via an exhaust duct 910; the machine tool 300 is connected to the inlet of the dust collection device 200 via a main duct 920; multiple machine tools 300 are provided. One end of the first electric valve 400 is connected to the main duct 920, and the other end has a first opening for communication with the outside; the first electric valve 400 is used to supplement the gas flow; the first controller 500 is used to collect the working status of multiple machine tools 300 in real time and make real-time judgments on the collected results. The first electric valve 400, the first controller 500, and the machine tools 300 are electrically connected; when the first controller 500 determines that the collected result is less than a set value, the first controller 500 opens the first electric valve 400 to supplement the air flow. Specifically, this anti-surge dust removal system uses a first controller 500 to collect real-time data on the operating status of multiple machine tools 300. The number of machine tools 300 currently in operation is used as the data collection result. When the first controller 500 determines that the data collection result is less than a set value, indicating that production is not saturated, the first controller 500 opens the first electric valve 400 to connect to the outside environment and supplement the gas flow to prevent the fan 100 from experiencing surge. When the first controller 500 determines that the data collection result is greater than or equal to the set value, the first controller 500 closes the first electric valve 400, keeping it closed. Unlike previous anti-surge solutions that monitor the pressure and flow rate in the exhaust duct 910 and main duct 920, this anti-surge dust removal system directly determines whether to open the first electric valve 400 for supplementary air supply by judging in real-time whether the number of machine tools 300 currently in operation is less than a set value. This dynamic air supply method offers high real-time performance, significantly reduces the risk of surge in the fan 100, ensures stable and efficient system operation, and reduces additional energy consumption, achieving energy-saving effects. Furthermore, the first electric valve 400, the first controller 500, and the machine tool 300 are electrically connected. The first controller 500 directly collects the working status of the machine tool 300 and makes real-time judgments. Compared with relying on pressure sensors and flow meters, this is more in line with the actual production conditions and shortens the adjustment lag time.
[0026] Furthermore, referring to Figure 2The first controller 500 includes a data acquisition unit 510, a judgment unit 520, and a first control unit 530. The data acquisition unit 510 receives and statistically analyzes the working signals of the machine tool 300 when it is powered on. The judgment unit 520 receives and judges whether the data acquisition results output by the data acquisition unit 510 are less than a set value. The first control unit 530 controls the first electric valve 400. The first controller 500 is a PLC controller. The first controller 500, in conjunction with the first electric valve 400, realizes the process from "signal acquisition" to "result judgment" and then to "dynamic adjustment," achieving dynamic air supply to the main pipeline 920 and controlling the gas flow rate.
[0027] Furthermore, the first electric valve 400 includes a first valve and a first electric actuator mounted on the first valve. One end of the first valve is mounted on the wall of the main pipeline 920 and is connected to the main pipeline 920; the other end of the first valve has a first opening; and the first electric actuator is electrically connected to the first controller 500.
[0028] In this embodiment, the fan 100 is configured as a single-stage high-speed centrifugal fan 100. The single-stage high-speed centrifugal fan 100 has the advantages of stable operation, high speed, and energy saving. In some embodiments, the fan 100 may also be other types of centrifugal fans 100.
[0029] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 1-3This anti-surge dust removal system also includes: a frequency converter 600, a second controller 700, and a second electric valve 800. The frequency converter 600 is electrically connected to the fan 100 and is used to regulate the fan 100. One end of the second electric valve 800 is connected to the exhaust duct 910, and the other end has a second opening connecting to the outside. The frequency converter 600, the second controller 700, and the second electric valve 800 are electrically connected. The second controller 700 is used to monitor and receive the first output signal from the frequency converter 600 in real time. When the second controller 700 determines that surge has occurred, it opens the second electric valve 800 to provide supplementary air. The frequency converter 600 is a power conversion device used to adjust the speed of the fan 100 and control its operation. It achieves precise control of the fan 100 by changing the frequency and voltage of the input power supply. This anti-surge dust removal system uses a second controller 700 to monitor and receive the first output signal from the frequency converter 600 in real time, thereby judging the operating performance of the fan 100 in real time. It then determines whether surge has occurred based on the first output signal from the frequency converter 600. When the second controller 700 determines that surge has occurred, it opens the second electric valve 800 to provide supplementary air, achieving real-time response to surge conditions. By regulating the gas flow through the second electric valve 800, the system helps the fan 100 move out of the surge zone, reducing mechanical damage and performance degradation caused by surge to the fan 100 and other equipment, extending equipment lifespan, and lowering maintenance and replacement costs.
[0030] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 The second controller 700 includes a storage unit 710, an input unit 720, a comparison unit 730, and a second control unit 740. The storage unit 710 stores the second output signal historically output by the inverter 600 during surge. The input unit 720 monitors and receives the first output signal in real time. The comparison unit 730 compares the first output signal with the second output signal stored in the storage unit 710 in real time. The second control unit 740 controls the second electric valve 800. Specifically, the first output signal represents the operating data of the inverter 600 regulating the fan 100 during operation, including: fan 100 speed, regulated power, regulated current, and regulated voltage. The second output signal represents relevant data on the operation of the fan 100 during surge (including data controlled by the frequency converter 600 during surge). The storage unit 710 stores the relevant data of the second output signal to form a surge boundary database. The input unit 720 monitors and receives the first output signal in real time. The comparison unit 730 compares the first output signal with the second output signal in the storage unit 710 in real time, i.e., it determines in real time whether the fan 100 has experienced surge. When surge occurs, the second electric valve 800 is opened by the second control unit 740 to provide supplementary air. When the second controller 700 determines that no surge has occurred, the second control unit 740 controls the second electric valve 800 to be closed.
[0031] Further, the second electric valve 800 includes: a second valve and a second electric actuator disposed on the second valve. One end of the second valve is disposed on the wall of the exhaust duct 910 and communicates with the exhaust duct 910; the other end of the second valve has a second opening; the second electric actuator is electrically connected to the second controller 700. The second electric actuator can precisely control the opening degree of the second valve, so as to accurately control the opening degree according to the surge condition. In this embodiment, the comparison result of the comparison unit 730 is proportional to the opening degree of the second electric valve 800. In this embodiment, the comparison unit 730 compares the first output signal with the second output signal, that is, it compares the real-time collected operating data with the data in the surge boundary database in real time. The terminal control device fits the comparison result of the comparison unit 730 with the valve opening degree in the second electric valve 800 into a proportional relationship. In this way, the second controller 700 can accurately control the valve opening degree in the second electric valve 800 through the comparison result, so as to solve the surge problem by finding the minimum second valve opening degree and achieving the minimum supplementary air volume, which is beneficial to energy saving and system stability.
[0032] In some embodiments, a silencer (not shown in the accompanying drawings) is provided at the end of the first electric valve 400 connected to the main pipe 920 to reduce production noise. In some embodiments, a silencer is also provided at the end of the second electric valve 800 connected to the exhaust pipe 910.
[0033] Furthermore, a pressure sensor (not shown in the attached drawings) is installed in the main duct 920 and / or the exhaust duct 910; the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the second controller 700. In this embodiment, pressure sensors are installed in the main duct 920 and the exhaust duct 910 to detect the pressure within the main duct 920, reflecting whether surge has occurred and the extent of surge. In some embodiments, a pressure sensor is installed in the main duct 920 or the exhaust duct 910.
[0034] Furthermore, an anemometer (not shown in the attached figure) is installed in the main duct 920 and / or the exhaust duct 910 to measure the flow velocity within the duct. In this embodiment, an anemometer is installed in both the main duct 920 and the exhaust duct 910. In some embodiments, an anemometer is installed in either the main duct 920 or the exhaust duct 910.
[0035] The above is only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it.
