Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary components for cooling towers, specifically a cooling tower water distribution trough. Background Technology
[0002] Cooling towers are commonly used heat dissipation devices in industrial production and building air conditioning systems, and their heat dissipation efficiency directly affects the operating performance of the entire system. The water distribution trough, as a key component of the cooling tower, is responsible for evenly distributing hot water to the packing layer of the cooling tower, achieving sufficient heat exchange between the hot water and the air.
[0003] Traditional water distribution channels have a relatively simple water distribution method, usually using simple perforation or overflow to distribute water. This makes it difficult to ensure that hot water is evenly distributed across the entire cross-section of the water distribution channel, resulting in some packing layers not being able to fully contact the hot water, thus reducing the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling tower.
[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and its shortcomings, and proposed a cooling tower water distribution channel. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a cooling tower water distribution channel to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cooling tower water distribution trough, comprising a rectangular trough and auxiliary components. A water distribution branch pipe is provided at the bottom of the rectangular trough, and a water distribution hole is provided on the outside of the water distribution branch pipe. A connecting pipe is fixed through the middle of the left side of the rectangular trough. The auxiliary components are located in the middle of the right side of the rectangular trough, and the auxiliary components include a mounting base, a forward and reverse motor, a drive shaft, a drive gear, a gear ring, and a driven gear. The forward and reverse motor is installed on the upper left side inside the mounting base, and the output end of the forward and reverse motor is connected to the drive shaft. A drive gear is sleeved on the outside of the drive shaft, and a gear ring is connected to the outside of the drive gear. A driven gear is also connected to the inside of the gear ring.
[0007] Furthermore, the water distribution branch pipes are arranged in a rectangular array about the bottom of the rectangular trough, and the water distribution holes are equidistantly distributed along the length of the water distribution branch pipes.
[0008] Furthermore, the diameter of the water distribution branch pipe gradually decreases from the inlet end to the outlet end, and the water distribution branch pipes are parallel to each other.
[0009] Furthermore, the auxiliary component also includes a drive shaft and a toothed clamping block, and the drive shaft passes through the middle of the driven gear, while the toothed clamping block is connected to the outside of both the driving gear and the driven gear.
[0010] Furthermore, the auxiliary component also includes a sealing rubber strip and a sliding pin, and the inner side of the toothed clamp is provided with a sealing rubber strip, and the surface of the toothed clamp is fixedly provided with a sliding pin.
[0011] Furthermore, the auxiliary component also includes a slide groove and an interface, and the inner surface of the mounting base is provided with a slide groove, while the middle of both sides of the mounting base is provided with an interface.
[0012] Furthermore, the drive shaft and the mounting base are rotatably connected, and three driven gears and three drive shafts are provided.
[0013] Furthermore, the sliding pin and the sliding groove are slidably connected, and four toothed clamps and four sliding pins are provided.
[0014] This utility model provides a cooling tower water distribution channel, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. When it is necessary to increase the heat dissipation capacity of a cooling tower, the connecting pipe on the left side of one rectangular trough can be inserted into the interface on the mounting base on the right side of another rectangular trough. By starting the forward and reverse motor, the power is transmitted to the drive gear through the drive shaft, which then drives the gear ring drive to rotate the driven gear and the drive shaft. This causes the toothed clamping blocks to move closer to each other until the connecting pipe is clamped and fixed, so that the two adjacent rectangular troughs are connected through the auxiliary components to expand the capacity of the water distribution trough. This allows the water distribution trough to be flexibly combined according to the actual size and heat dissipation requirements of the cooling tower, adapting to the installation requirements of cooling towers of different specifications.
[0016] 2. The rectangular tank of this utility model has multiple water distribution branch pipes evenly distributed at the bottom. Each water distribution branch pipe has multiple water distribution holes evenly arranged along its length. The diameter of the water distribution branch pipe gradually decreases from the inlet end to the outlet end to ensure that the water pressure at the water distribution holes at different positions is basically the same. This allows hot water to be evenly distributed to the packing layer of the cooling tower, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling tower and enabling the cooling tower to operate more stably.

[0021] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.
[0022] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a cooling tower water distribution trough includes a rectangular trough 1 and an auxiliary component 5. A connecting pipe 4 is fixed through the middle left side of the rectangular trough 1. The auxiliary component 5 is located in the middle right side of the rectangular trough 1 and includes a mounting base 501, a reversible motor 502, a drive shaft 503, a drive gear 504, a gear ring 505, and a driven gear 506. The reversible motor 502 is mounted on the upper left side inside the mounting base 501, and the output end of the reversible motor 502 is connected to the drive shaft 503. The drive gear 504 is sleeved on the outside of the drive shaft 503, and the gear ring 505 is connected to the outside of the drive gear 504. The driven gear 506 is also connected to the inner side of the gear ring 505. The auxiliary component 5 also includes a transmission shaft 507 and a toothed clamping block 508. A drive shaft 507 passes through the middle of the wheel 506. Toothed clamps 508 are connected to the outside of both the driving gear 504 and the driven gear 506. The auxiliary component 5 also includes a sealing rubber strip 509 and a sliding pin 510. The inner side of the toothed clamp 508 is provided with a sealing rubber strip 509. The surface of the toothed clamp 508 is fixed with a sliding pin 510. The auxiliary component 5 also includes a groove 511 and an interface 512. The inner surface of the mounting base 501 is provided with a groove 511. The middle of both sides of the mounting base 501 is provided with an interface 512. The drive shaft 507 and the mounting base 501 are rotatably connected. There are three driven gears 506 and three drive shafts 507. The sliding pins 510 and the grooves 511 are slidably connected. There are four toothed clamps 508 and four sliding pins 510.
[0023] The specific operation is as follows: When it is necessary to increase the heat dissipation capacity of the cooling tower, the connecting pipe 4 on the left side of one rectangular trough 1 can be inserted into the interface 512 on the mounting base 501 on the right side of another rectangular trough 1. By starting the forward and reverse motor 502, the power is transmitted to the drive gear 504 through the drive shaft 503, which then drives the gear ring 505 to drive the driven gear 506 and the drive shaft 507 to rotate. Then, the toothed clamping blocks 508 are driven to move closer to each other until the connecting pipe 4 is clamped and fixed, so that the two adjacent rectangular troughs 1 are connected through the auxiliary component 5 to realize the expansion of the water distribution trough. This allows the water distribution trough to be flexibly combined according to the actual size and heat dissipation requirements of the cooling tower, adapting to the installation requirements of different specifications of cooling towers.
[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a water distribution branch pipe 2 is provided at the bottom of the rectangular tank 1, and a water distribution hole 3 is provided on the outside of the water distribution branch pipe 2. The water distribution branch pipe 2 is distributed in a rectangular array about the bottom of the rectangular tank 1, and the water distribution hole 3 is distributed at equal intervals along the length of the water distribution branch pipe 2. The diameter of the water distribution branch pipe 2 gradually decreases from the water inlet end to the water outlet end, and the water distribution branch pipes 2 are parallel to each other.
[0025] The specific operation is as follows: multiple water distribution branch pipes 2 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the rectangular tank 1. Each water distribution branch pipe 2 has multiple water distribution holes 3 evenly arranged along its length. The diameter of the water distribution branch pipe 2 gradually decreases from the water inlet end to the water outlet end to ensure that the water pressure at the water distribution holes 3 at different locations is basically the same. This allows hot water to be evenly distributed to the packing layer of the cooling tower, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling tower and enabling the cooling tower to operate more stably.
[0026] In summary, when using this cooling tower water distribution trough, firstly, several evenly distributed water distribution branch pipes 2 are set at the bottom of the rectangular trough 1. When hot water flows downward from the water distribution branch pipes 2, it is the first stage of water distribution. When hot water flows downward through the water distribution holes 3 and sprays to the surroundings, it is the second stage of water distribution. Since the water distribution holes 3 are evenly arranged along the length of the water distribution branch pipes 2, and the pipe diameter of the water distribution branch pipes 2 gradually decreases from the inlet end to the outlet end, it ensures that the water pressure at the water distribution holes 3 at different locations is basically the same, so that the hot water can be evenly distributed to the packing layer of the cooling tower, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling tower and enabling the cooling tower to operate more stably.
[0027] When dealing with larger cooling towers, the connecting pipe 4 on the left side of one rectangular trough 1 can be inserted into the interface 512 on the mounting base 501 on the right side of another rectangular trough 1. Then, the forward and reverse motor 502 is started, and the power is transmitted to the drive gear 504 through the drive shaft 503. Subsequently, the gear ring 505 drives the driven gear 506 and the drive shaft 507 to rotate. Through the engagement of the driven gear 506 with the toothed clamping block 508, the sliding pin 510 slides in the slide groove 511, and the four toothed clamping blocks 508 move along the preset trajectory until they clamp the connecting pipe 4. At the same time, the adjacent sealing rubber strips 509 squeeze each other to form a good sealing effect. The auxiliary component 5 connects the two adjacent rectangular troughs 1, realizing the expansion of the water distribution trough. The water distribution trough can be flexibly combined according to the actual size and heat dissipation requirements of the cooling tower, adapting to the installation requirements of different specifications of cooling towers, and has good economy and practicality.
[0028] At this time, the two rectangular tanks 1 are connected. When the water level in one rectangular tank 1 exceeds the water level in the other rectangular tank 1, the hot water in the rectangular tank 1 with the higher water level will flow into the rectangular tank 1 with the lower water level along the connecting pipe 4, so that the hot water levels in the two rectangular tanks 1 are equal, thereby compensating for the problem of uneven water distribution and ensuring that the hot water can be evenly distributed to the packing layer at the bottom of the entire water distribution tank.
[0029] The embodiments of this utility model are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the utility model to the forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of this utility model, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand this utility model and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
