[0004] As shown in the above technology, existing gas mixing devices are mostly designed for general gases and have certain limitations in terms of mixing accuracy, stability and ease of operation. Especially in scenarios where the mixing ratio is required to be high, the mixing degree is insufficient and cannot meet the requirements. Utility Model Content

[0013] Beneficial effects

[0014] This invention provides a dual inert gas mixer. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. This dual inert gas mixer, through a mixing turbulence component including multiple turbulence plates, the turbulence plates are distributed in a spiral shape, and turbulence channels are formed between adjacent microporous structures. The surface of the turbulence plates is provided with microporous structures. The setting of the mixing turbulence component significantly improves the uniformity of gas mixing. The spiral distribution of turbulence plates and microporous structures work together to increase the turbulence intensity of the gas, so that the two inert gases can fully contact and mix in the mixing chamber. Furthermore, the cooperation between the guide groove and the turbulence channel further optimizes the gas flow path, reduces dead zones in the gas mixing process, and improves the mixing efficiency.

A piston is slidably connected to the inner surface of the pressure tank, and a spring is fixedly connected between the right side of the piston and the inner wall of the pressure tank. The pressure balancing component effectively solves the problem of pressure fluctuation during the mixing process. The piston inside the pressure tank adjusts the pressure inside the mixing cylinder in real time through the elastic action of the spring, ensuring the stability of the gas mixing process and avoiding uneven mixing caused by pressure changes.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 This dual inert gas mixer offers two technical solutions:

[0024] The first embodiment includes a mixing cylinder 1, with two air inlet pipes 2 on the top of the mixing cylinder 1, and a flow regulating valve 7 on each of the two air inlet pipes 2. A controller 8 is fixedly installed on the right side of the mixing cylinder 1, and a mixing turbulence assembly 4 is provided inside the mixing cylinder 1. The mixing turbulence assembly 4 is fixedly installed inside the mixing cylinder 1.

[0025] The mixing turbulence assembly 4 includes multiple turbulence plates 46, which are spirally distributed. A turbulence channel is formed between adjacent microporous structures 47. The surface of the turbulence plates 46 is provided with microporous structures, the diameter of which ranges from 0.5 mm to 1 mm. A flow guide groove 48 is provided on the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 1. The flow guide groove 48 extends along the length of the mixing cylinder 1 and is spirally shaped. The flow guide groove 48 is used in conjunction with the turbulence channel.

[0026] The mixing and turbulence assembly 4 also includes two fixing frames 41 and a fixing rod 42. The lower fixing frame 41 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the mixing cylinder 1. The top and bottom of the fixing rod 42 are fixedly connected with bolts. The fixing rod 42 is threadedly connected to the top of the upper fixing frame 41 and to the bottom of the upper fixing frame 41 with bolts. The surface of the fixing rod 42 has multiple threaded holes 43, which are spirally distributed. The surface of the fixing rod 42 is fitted with a fixing sleeve 45, which is fixed at the position of the threaded hole 43 by an internal hex bolt 44. The turbulence plate 46 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing sleeve 45.

[0027] The mixing and turbulence component 4 significantly improves the uniformity of gas mixing. The spirally distributed turbulence plate 46 and the microporous structure 47 work together to increase the turbulence intensity of the gas, allowing the two inert gases to fully contact and mix in the mixing chamber. Furthermore, the coordination between the guide groove 48 and the turbulence channel further optimizes the gas flow path, reduces dead zones in the gas mixing process, and improves mixing efficiency.

[0028] The second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that: a pressure balancing assembly 5 is provided outside the mixing cylinder 1. The pressure balancing assembly 5 is connected to the mixing cylinder 1 through a conduit 6. The pressure balancing assembly 5 includes a pressure tank 51 fixedly installed outside the mixing cylinder 1. A piston 52 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the pressure tank 51. A spring 53 is fixedly connected between the right side of the piston 52 and the inner wall of the pressure tank 51. An exhaust pipe 54 and an air inlet pipe 55 are connected to the left side of the pressure tank 51. The air inlet pipe 55 is connected to the mixing cylinder 1 through the conduit 6. The exhaust pipe 54 is connected to the outside through a one-way valve 56.

[0029] The pressure balancing component 5 effectively solves the problem of pressure fluctuation during the mixing process. The piston in the pressure tank 51 adjusts the pressure in the mixing cylinder 1 in real time through the elastic action of the spring 53, ensuring the stability of the gas mixing process and avoiding uneven mixing caused by pressure changes.

[0030] In use, the two gases enter the mixing cylinder 1 through the two inlet pipes 2 respectively. After entering the mixing turbulence assembly 4, they form a complex flow path under the action of the turbulence plate 46 and the guide groove 48. The spiral distribution of the turbulence plate 46 causes the gas to generate a swirling effect inside the mixing cylinder 1, while the microporous structure 47 further enhances the local turbulence intensity of the gas, promoting full contact and uniform mixing of the two inert gases. In addition, when the pressure inside the mixing cylinder 1 changes, the fixing rod 42 moves through the elastic action of the spring threaded hole 43. When the pressure inside the mixing cylinder 1 increases, the fixing rod 42 moves to the left, and some gas is discharged through the exhaust pipe 54; when the pressure inside the mixing cylinder 1 decreases, the fixing rod 42 moves to the right, and external gas is replenished into the mixing cylinder 1 through the inlet pipe 55, thereby maintaining the pressure balance inside the mixing cylinder 1.
