[0031] Please see Figures 1-6 An air cooler for petroleum refining includes a body 1, on which an air cooling assembly is provided. The air cooling assembly includes a filter plate 2 and an exhaust pipe 3. The filter plate 2 is detachably installed at one end of the body 1, and the exhaust pipe 3 is located at one end of the body 1. Exhaust pipes 4 are evenly installed on the exhaust pipe 3. An oil injection plug 5 is detachably installed on the body 1. An oil drain pipe 6 is connected to one end of the bottom of the body 1. A removal assembly is provided on the body 1 and the filter plate 2. The removal assembly includes a fixing rod 7 and a fixing sleeve 8. The fixing rod 7 is evenly installed on the body 1. The filter plate 2 is slidably connected to the fixing rod 7. The fixing sleeve 8 is detachably installed on the fixing rod 7. One end of the fixing sleeve 8 abuts against the filter plate 2. A rotating ring 9 is rotatably connected to the fixing sleeve 8.

[0032] An oil drain plug 10 is detachably installed on the oil drain pipe 6, a power cord 11 is connected to one end of the device body 1, and an installation plate 12 is installed inside the device body 1.

[0033] A circulation pipe 13 is installed on the mounting plate 12. A pump body is connected to the external circulation pipe 13. An exhaust fan 14 is installed inside the device body 1. The exhaust fan 14 is connected to an external power source. The circulation pipe 13 extends into the bottom of the inner side of the device body 1.

[0034] A rotating plate 15 is installed on the rotating ring 9, and a guide rod 16 is connected to the rotating plate 15.

[0035] A second spring 17 is sleeved on the guide rod 16, and a stabilizing plate 18 is installed on the fixed sleeve 8. The stabilizing plate 18 is slidably connected to the guide rod 16, and the two ends of the second spring 17 are connected to the stabilizing plate 18 and the rotating plate 15.

[0036] In this embodiment, the oil plug 5 is removed from the device body 1, and then oil is injected through the oil inlet 30, flowing into the device body 1. An external pump is activated to introduce the oil into the circulation pipe 13, thus completing the oil circulation. The exhaust fan 14 is activated to introduce external air along one end of the filter plate 2, which then flows through the inside of the device body 1, blowing away heat from the surface of the circulation pipe 13, thereby promoting heat dissipation from the oil. Finally, the gas is discharged from the exhaust pipe 4 on the exhaust stack 3. By utilizing the filter plate 2 to filter dust, after a period of use, the filter plate 2 needs to be cleaned. When removing for cleaning and replacement, the movable sleeve 20 is slid along the guide block 19 on the fixed sleeve 8, and during the sliding movement, the movable block 21 on it is moved, thereby compressing the first spring 22 between the movable block 21 and the fixed sleeve 8. Then, when the movable block 21 moves, the movable rod 23 at one end of the movable block 21 moves out of the rotating ring. Then, the rotating ring 9 is rotated along the fixed sleeve 8, and during the rotation, the guide rod 16 on the rotating plate 15 is used to rotate along the stabilizing plate 18 on the fixed sleeve 8, and during the rotation, the second spring 17 sleeved on the outer side of the guide is compressed.

[0037] Please see Figure 4-6 As an embodiment of the locking assembly for an air cooler used in petroleum refining: a locking assembly is provided on the fixed sleeve 8. The locking assembly includes a guide block 19 and a movable sleeve 20. The guide block 19 is provided on the fixed sleeve 8, and the movable sleeve 20 is slidably connected to the guide block 19. A movable block 21 is installed on the movable sleeve 20.

[0038] A first spring 22 is provided between the movable block 21 and the fixed sleeve 8. A movable rod 23 is connected to one end of the movable block 21. The movable rod 23 is inserted into the rotating ring 9. A rotating groove 24 is provided on the rotating ring 9. A sliding block 25 is slidably connected to the rotating groove 24.

[0039] One end of the sliding block 25 is connected to a fixed block 26, and one end of the fixed block 26 is fitted with a third spring 27. The two ends of the third spring 27 are connected to the fixed block 26 and the fixed sleeve 8. A moving groove 28 is provided on the fixed rod 7, which is adapted to the fixed block 26. A storage groove 29 is provided on the fixed sleeve 8, which is adapted to the fixed block 26. An oil filling port 30 is provided on the body 1, which is adapted to the oil filling plug 5. A connecting line 31 is connected to the body 1.

[0040] More specifically, as the rotating ring 9 rotates, it drives the sliding block 25 to slide along the rotating groove 24, according to... Figure 5 As can be seen, the rotating groove 24 is inclined. Therefore, when the sliding block 25 moves, it drives the fixed block 26 connected to one end to slide along the storage groove 29 on the fixed sleeve 8. When the fixed block 26 slides, it compresses the third spring 27 and moves the fixed block 26 out of the moving groove 28, thereby releasing the fixation of the fixed rod 7. At this time, the fixed sleeve 8 can be slid out along the fixed rod 7. Then, the filter plate 2 can be slid off along the fixed rod 7 to complete the cleaning or replacement of the filter plate 2. After the operation is completed, the above operation is repeated in reverse to complete the fixation of the filter plate 2.

[0041] In summary, during the use or operation of the entire equipment: remove the oil plug 5 from the body 1, then inject oil through the oil inlet 30 into the body 1. Start the external pump to introduce the oil into the circulation pipe 13, thus completing the oil circulation. Start the exhaust fan 14 to introduce external air along one end of the filter plate 2, which then flows through the interior of the body 1, blowing away heat from the surface of the circulation pipe 13, thereby promoting heat dissipation for the oil. Finally, the gas is discharged from the exhaust pipe 4 on the exhaust stack 3. After a period of use, the filter plate 2 filters dust. When the filter plate 2 is removed for cleaning and replacement, the movable sleeve 20 is slidably moved along the guide block 19 on the fixed sleeve 8. During the sliding movement, the movable block 21 on it is moved, thereby compressing the first spring 22 between the movable block 21 and the fixed sleeve 8. Then, when the movable block 21 moves, the movable rod 23 at one end of the movable block 21 moves out of the rotating ring. Then, the rotating ring 9 is rotated along the fixed sleeve 8. During the rotation, the guide rod 16 on the rotating plate 15 is rotated along the stabilizing plate 18 on the fixed sleeve 8. During the rotation, the second spring 17 sleeved on the outer side of the guide is compressed.

[0042] As the rotating ring 9 rotates, it drives the sliding block 25 to slide along the rotating groove 24. Figure 5As can be seen, the rotating groove 24 is inclined. Therefore, when the sliding block 25 moves, it drives the fixed block 26 connected to one end to slide along the storage groove 29 on the fixed sleeve 8. When the fixed block 26 slides, it compresses the third spring 27 and moves the fixed block 26 out of the moving groove 28, thereby releasing the fixation of the fixed rod 7. At this time, the fixed sleeve 8 can be slid out along the fixed rod 7. Then, the filter plate 2 can be slid off along the fixed rod 7 to complete the cleaning or replacement of the filter plate 2. After the operation is completed, the above operation is repeated in reverse to complete the fixation of the filter plate 2.

[0043] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
