Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of liquid separator equipment, specifically relating to a horizontal liquid separator. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the design of refrigeration systems, a separator is typically added between the compressor and the condenser to separate the refrigerant gas mixed with lubricating oil, thus protecting the safety and stability of the entire system. Common horizontal separators mostly employ a combination of centrifugation and filtration.

[0003] Since most horizontal separators in the existing technology are cylindrical, the stability is poor during the fixed installation process, which reduces the separation effect. In addition, the fixed installation is cumbersome to disassemble, and the equipment needs to be moved as a whole for cleaning or maintenance, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, greatly increasing maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the prior art and to provide a horizontal liquid separator. By setting an air inlet and an air outlet, the mixture enters through the air inlet, is separated, and the gas is discharged from the air outlet. The bottom of the cylinder is provided with feet to facilitate the placement of the circular cylinder, which increases the convenience of cylinder installation and ensures the stability of the liquid separator operation. It also facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the liquid separator during subsequent maintenance and cleaning.

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

[0006] A horizontal separator includes a cylindrical body with feet at the bottom. The body also has an air inlet and an air outlet, each equipped with a valve and a connector. One end of the valve and connector is connected to the cylinder, and the other end is connected to the cylinder. The air outlet also has a steel pipe located inside the cylinder and connected to the other end of the connector. This invention, by providing an air inlet and outlet, allows the mixture to enter through the inlet, undergo separation, and the gas to exit through the outlet. The feet at the bottom of the cylinder facilitate placement of the circular cylinder, increasing ease of installation while ensuring the stability of the separator's operation and facilitating disassembly and assembly for subsequent maintenance and cleaning.

[0007] Furthermore, the cylinder is also connected to a fusible plug, with a connector two attached to the end of the fusible plug. The fusible plug serves a safety function; after melting, it forms a pressure relief channel, quickly releasing the high-pressure refrigerant or gas inside the cylinder and preventing the cylinder from rupturing or exploding due to high temperature and pressure.

[0008] Furthermore, a lifting ring is provided at the center of the top of the cylinder. The lifting ring facilitates the hoisting of the cylinder, thereby improving the ease of assembly and disassembly.

[0009] Furthermore, a mounting base is provided on the top surface of the cylinder. The mounting base facilitates the installation and fixation of the cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, a fixed support is provided at the bottom of the cylinder. The fixed support includes a bottom frame, a support platform, and a diagonal brace. The support platform is fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom frame, and the diagonal brace is fixedly connected to the bottom frame between the two support platforms. The bottom of the machine foot rests against the top surface of the support platform, and the diagonal brace rests against the bottom of the cylinder.

[0011] Furthermore, the support platform includes a platform, adjusting sleeves, and adjusting blocks. The adjusting sleeves are fixedly connected to the bottom of the platform, and the adjusting blocks are correspondingly fixedly connected to the base frame. A synchronous connecting rod is provided between the two adjusting sleeves at corresponding ends. The adjusting block is equipped with an adjusting screw, and the adjusting sleeve is equipped with an adjusting groove that communicates with the cavity. The adjusting screw is located in the adjusting groove, and an adjusting nut is screwed into the adjusting screw. The adjusting nut is tightened onto the adjusting sleeve. By loosening the adjusting nut, the platform can be raised and lowered along the direction of the adjusting block, so that the machine feet rest on the platform. Then, the adjusting nut is tightened, so that the platform provides support for the machine feet, improving the installation stability of the separator.

[0012] Furthermore, the inclined support frame includes a base and an inclined support platform. The inclined support platform is movably connected to the base. A slider is located at the bottom of the inclined support platform, and a corresponding groove is located at the top of the base. The slider is slidably connected within the groove. A fixing block is located on the side of the inclined support platform away from the cylinder, and a tightening screw is screwed into the fixing block, securing it to the base. The inclined support platform slides along the direction of the groove via the slider, causing it to abut against the outer wall of the cylinder. This provides support and limits the bottom of the cylinder, improving the stability of the separator's operation and ensuring its separation effect.

[0013] This utility model, by adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This invention features an air inlet and an air outlet. The mixture enters through the air inlet, is separated, and the gas is discharged through the air outlet. Foot feet are provided at the bottom of the cylinder to facilitate the placement of the circular cylinder, increasing the ease of installation and ensuring the stability of the separator's operation. This also facilitates disassembly and assembly during subsequent maintenance and cleaning.

[0015] This utility model's support platform includes a platform, adjusting sleeves, and adjusting blocks. The adjusting sleeves are fixedly connected to the bottom of the platform, and the adjusting blocks are correspondingly fixedly connected to the base frame. A synchronous connecting rod is provided between the two adjusting sleeves at corresponding ends. The adjusting blocks are provided with adjusting screws, and the adjusting sleeves are correspondingly provided with adjusting grooves that communicate with the cavity. The adjusting screw is located in the adjusting groove, and an adjusting nut is screwed into the adjusting screw. The adjusting nut is tightened onto the adjusting sleeve. By loosening the adjusting nut, the platform can be raised and lowered along the direction of the adjusting blocks, causing the machine feet to rest against the platform. Then, the adjusting nut is tightened, allowing the platform to provide support for the machine feet and improving the installation stability of the dispenser.

[0016] This utility model includes a base and a diagonal support platform. The diagonal support platform is movably connected to the base. A slider is located at the bottom of the diagonal support platform, and a corresponding groove is located at the top of the base. The slider is slidably connected within the groove. A fixing block is located on the side of the diagonal support platform away from the cylinder, and a tightening screw is screwed into the fixing block, securing it to the base. The diagonal support platform slides along the groove via the slider, causing it to abut against the outer wall of the cylinder. This provides support and limits the bottom of the cylinder, improving the stability of the separator's operation and ensuring its separation effect. Attached Figure Description

The inclined support platform 24 slides along the direction of the groove 26 via the slider 25, so that the inclined support platform 24 abuts against the outer wall of the cylinder 1. This allows the inclined support platform 24 to provide support and limit the bottom of the cylinder 1, improving the stability of the separator's operation and ensuring the separator's separation effect.

[0032] This utility model features an air inlet 3 and an air outlet 4. After the mixture enters through the air inlet 3, it is separated, and the gas is discharged from the air outlet 4. A foot 2 is provided at the bottom of the cylinder 1 to facilitate the placement of the circular cylinder 1, which increases the ease of installation of the cylinder 1 and ensures the stability of the liquid separator operation. It also facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the liquid separator during subsequent maintenance and cleaning.
