Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of storage tank technology, and specifically relates to a condensate storage tank. Background Technology

[0002] Condensate is water produced during certain processes, such as cooling, condensation, or steam release. Condensate is usually formed when a gas cools below its dew point, for example, when steam condenses into water upon contact with a colder surface. Condensate is often collected using appropriate condensate storage tanks.

[0003] In practical use, existing condensate storage tanks often contain a large amount of dust and bacteria during the generation and storage of condensate. This can easily cause equipment corrosion, bacterial spread, and health hazards during the condensate recovery process, thus limiting the use of the device and making it unsuitable for practical applications.

[0004] Therefore, a condensate storage tank is needed to solve the problem in the existing technology that the condensate often contains a large amount of dust and bacteria when it is generated and stored, which can easily cause equipment corrosion, bacterial spread and health hazards when the condensate is recycled.

[0007] The filtration and sterilization mechanism includes a frame inserted into the inner cavity of the water inlet shell, a filter screen fixed at the middle position of the frame, and a movable sterilization component for sterilization.

[0008] The active sterilization component includes a motor fixed at the middle position of the top of the storage tank, a rotating plate disposed at the top of the inner cavity of the storage tank, ultraviolet lamps fixed on both sides of the bottom of the rotating plate, a sleeve fixed at an adjacent position outside the rotating plate, a cleaning sleeve sleeved outside the sleeve, and a vertical moving component acting on the cleaning sleeve. The output end of the motor passes through the storage tank and is fixed at the middle position of the top surface of the rotating plate.

[0009] It should be noted in the solution that the vertical moving component includes a first threaded rod rotatably connected to the rotating plate at one side of the adjacent sleeve, a gear ring fixed to the top of the inner circumferential surface of the storage tank, a spur gear fixedly sleeved on the top of the outer circumferential surface of the first threaded rod, a first threaded sleeve threadedly connected to the middle position of the outer circumferential surface of the first threaded rod, and a limiting shaft inserted through the surface of the first threaded sleeve. The top of the limiting shaft is fixed to the bottom surface of the rotating plate, the spur gear and the gear ring are meshed, and one side of the first threaded sleeve is fixed to the surface of the adjacent cleaning sleeve.

[0010] It is worth noting that the vertical moving component also includes a support ring groove with a T-shaped cross-section opened at the top of the inner wall of the storage tank and a limiting block inserted at both sides of the inner cavity of the support ring groove. The top of the first threaded rod is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the adjacent limiting block.

[0011] Furthermore, it should be noted that the filtration and sterilization mechanism also includes a positioning component acting on the frame. The positioning component includes slots on both sides of the frame, inner chambers on both sides of the water inlet shell, a second threaded rod rotatably connected to the inner wall of the inner chamber, a second threaded sleeve threadedly connected to the outer circumferential surface of the second threaded rod, a guide component acting on the second threaded sleeve, a rotating component acting on the second threaded rod, and a limiting component acting on the bottom of the frame.

[0016] Beneficial effects:

[0017] (1) When the recovered condensate enters the storage tank, the motor and ultraviolet lamp are turned on, so that the two ultraviolet lamps can be placed in the inner cavity of the storage tank and make a circular motion. This allows the motor to perform ultraviolet sterilization on the condensate stored in the inner cavity of the storage tank. Under the movement trajectory of the ultraviolet lamp, the condensate stored in the inner cavity of the storage tank can fully receive the ultraviolet light emitted by the ultraviolet lamp, thus ensuring the sterilization effect on the stored condensate. During the ultraviolet sterilization process, the cleaning sleeve can slide against the outer circumference of the sleeve to remove the scale adhering to the surface of the sleeve, thus ensuring the light transmission effect of the sleeve, thereby improving the applicability of the device.

[0018] (2) The frame can be inserted into the inner cavity of the water inlet shell, and the two movable shafts can be rotated so that the second threaded rod can be rotated, thereby allowing the second threaded sleeve to extend into the interior of the adjacent slot, thus fixing the frame. This makes it easier for the user to install and remove the frame, and facilitates the maintenance of the frame and filter screen, thereby further improving the applicability of the device.

[0027] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a condensate storage tank, including a storage tank 1, a drain pipe 2 connected and fixed to the bottom of the storage tank 1, a water inlet shell 3 connected and fixed to one side of the outer periphery of the storage tank 1, and a filtration and sterilization mechanism for the condensate.

[0030] The filtration and sterilization mechanism includes a frame 17 inserted into the inner cavity of the water inlet shell 3, a filter screen 18 fixed in the middle of the frame 17, and a movable sterilization component for sterilization.

[0031] When the pipe for collecting condensate is connected from the inlet shell 3, the condensate can pass through the filter screen 18 and enter the interior of the storage tank 1. During this process, the filter screen 18 can filter the condensate to intercept dust in the condensate. The condensate entering the inner cavity of the storage tank 1 is subjected to the force of the active sterilization component, which can sterilize it. This achieves the filtering of dust and sterilization during the condensate storage process, thereby avoiding adverse effects such as equipment corrosion, bacterial spread and health hazards.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-7 The active sterilization component includes a motor 4 fixed at the top center of the storage tank 1, a rotating plate 5 set at the top of the inner cavity of the storage tank 1, ultraviolet lamps 6 fixed on both sides of the bottom of the rotating plate 5, a sleeve 7 fixed to the outside of the rotating plate 5 at an adjacent position, a cleaning sleeve 16 sleeved on the outside of the sleeve 7, and a vertical moving component acting on the cleaning sleeve 16. The output end of the motor 4 passes through the storage tank 1 and is fixed at the center of the top surface of the rotating plate 5.

[0033] When condensate enters the inner cavity of storage tank 1, after turning on motor 4 and ultraviolet lamp 6, the ultraviolet light emitted by ultraviolet lamp 6 can sterilize the condensate entering the inner cavity of storage tank 1. After motor 4 starts, the rotating plate 5 can drive ultraviolet lamp 6 to make circular motion, so that the ultraviolet light emitted by ultraviolet lamp 6 can fully contact the condensate placed in the inner cavity of storage tank 1, thereby ensuring the sterilization of condensate. Furthermore, during the irradiation by ultraviolet lamp 6, the condensate is protected by the sleeve 7. To prevent it from coming into contact with condensate, thus ensuring the normal operation of the UV lamp 6, while the rotating plate 5 drives the UV lamp 6 to make a circular motion, the cleaning sleeve 16 is made to reciprocate in the vertical direction by the action of the vertical moving component, thus the friction cleaning action of the cleaning sleeve 16 on the adjacent sleeve 7 removes the scale adhering to the outer surface of the sleeve 7, thus ensuring the light transmission effect of the sleeve 7 when it protects the UV lamp 6 during long-term use.

[0034] Please see Figure 1-7 The vertical moving component includes a first threaded rod 9 that is rotatably connected to the rotating plate 5 at one side of the adjacent sleeve 7, a gear ring 8 fixed to the top of the inner circumferential surface of the storage tank 1, a spur gear 11 fixedly sleeved on the top of the outer circumferential surface of the first threaded rod 9, a first threaded sleeve 15 that is threadedly connected to the middle position of the outer circumferential surface of the first threaded rod 9, and a limiting shaft 14 that is inserted through the surface of the first threaded sleeve 15. The top of the limiting shaft 14 is fixed to the bottom surface of the rotating plate 5, the spur gear 11 and the gear ring 8 are meshed, and one side of the first threaded sleeve 15 is fixed to the surface of the adjacent cleaning sleeve 16.

[0035] When the motor 4 makes a circular motion, it will drive the first threaded rod 9 to make a circular motion. This will allow the first threaded rod 9 to rotate under the meshing action between the spur gear 11 and the gear ring 8. Since the limiting shaft 14 can limit the first threaded sleeve 15, the first threaded sleeve 15 can drive the cleaning sleeve 16 to move in the vertical direction under the cooperation of the thread structure between the first threaded sleeve 15 and the first threaded rod 9. This will cause the inner surface of the cleaning sleeve 16 to come into contact with the outer circumference of the adjacent sleeve 7 and perform a friction cleaning action. By controlling the motor 4 to rotate alternately in two directions, the cleaning sleeve 16 can come into contact with the outer circumference of the adjacent sleeve 7 and reciprocate in the vertical direction.

[0036] Please see Figure 1-7 The vertical moving component also includes a support ring groove 12 with a T-shaped cross section at the top of the inner wall of the storage tank 1 and a limiting block 13 inserted at both sides of the inner cavity of the support ring groove 12. The top of the first threaded rod 9 is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the adjacent limiting block 13.

[0037] When the first threaded rod 9 makes a circular motion, it can drive the limiting block 13 to make a circular motion. Because the surface of the limiting block 13 is limited by the resistance of the inner cavity of the support ring groove 12, the movement trajectory of the limiting block 13 and the first threaded rod 9 can be limited, so that the first threaded rod 9 can be more stable during the circular motion.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] Reference Figure 1-7 As shown, the filtration and sterilization mechanism also includes a positioning component acting on the frame 17. The positioning component includes slots 24 on both sides of the frame 17, inner chambers 21 on both sides of the frame 17 on the inner wall of the water inlet shell 3, a second threaded rod 22 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the inner chamber 21, a second threaded sleeve 23 threadedly connected to the outer circumferential surface of the second threaded rod 22, a guide component acting on the second threaded sleeve 23, a rotating component acting on the second threaded rod 22, and a limiting component acting on the bottom of the frame 17.

[0040] After the frame 17 is inserted into the inner cavity of the water inlet shell 3, the second threaded rod 22 can be rotated by the rotating component. Since the guide component can limit the second threaded sleeve 23, it can move horizontally under the action of the thread structure between the second threaded sleeve 23 and the second threaded rod 22 when the second threaded rod 22 rotates. This allows the second threaded sleeve 23 to be embedded in the interior of the adjacent position slot 24, thereby providing a locking effect for the frame 17. During this process, the stability of the frame 17 can be further improved by the action of the locking component. When it is necessary to disassemble the frame 17, it is only necessary to rotate the second threaded rod 22 in the opposite direction by rotating the component to disengage the second threaded sleeve 23 from the interior of the adjacent position slot 24.

[0041] Reference Figure 1-7 As shown, the rotating component includes a movable shaft 28 rotatably connected to the top surface of the water inlet shell 3, a first bevel gear 27 fixedly sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the second threaded rod 22 near the adjacent position of the movable shaft 28, and a second bevel gear 10 fixedly sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the movable shaft 28 inside the inner chamber 21. The first bevel gear 27 and the adjacent second bevel gear 10 are meshed together.

[0042] When it is necessary to rotate the second threaded rod 22, the second bevel gear 10 can be rotated by rotating the movable shaft 28, so that the second threaded rod 22 can be rotated under the meshing action between the second bevel gear 10 and the adjacent first bevel gear 27.

[0043] Reference Figure 1-7As shown, the guide component includes a directional groove 25 connected to the bottom of the inner compartment 21 and a directional block 26 slidably inserted into the inner cavity of the directional groove 25. The top of the directional block 26 is fixed to the surface of the bottom of the second threaded sleeve 23 at the adjacent position.

[0044] Since the directional block 26 can only slide within the cavity of the directional groove 25 at adjacent positions, it can limit the movement trajectory of the second threaded sleeve 23, allowing it to move horizontally under the driving action of the threaded structure between the second threaded sleeve 23 and the second threaded rod 22 when the second threaded rod 22 rotates.

[0045] Reference Figure 1-7 As shown, the locking component includes an abutment groove 19 opened at the bottom of the frame 17 and a positioning strip 20 inserted inside the abutment groove 19. The bottom of the positioning strip 20 is fixed to the inner wall of the water inlet shell 3.

[0046] Since the frame 17 is inserted into the interior of the water inlet shell 3, the positioning strip 20 can be inserted into the interior of the contact groove 19, so that the frame 17 is more stable when placed in the interior of the water inlet shell 3 under the contact action between the inner cavity of the contact groove 19 and the surface of the positioning strip 20.
