Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of gas-water separation technology, and specifically relates to a gas-water separator for textile dehydration production lines. Background Technology
[0002] Gas-water separators are used to separate water from gases. A relatively mature technology is cyclone separation technology, which uses the centrifugal force of gas rotation to separate water. In this process, there are positive pressure and negative pressure air intake. Different air intake methods result in different motion processes, and the gas-water separation effect varies accordingly.
[0003] Regarding the application of cyclone separation technology, the existing technology announcement number CN221385756U, "A Gas-Water Filtration and Separation Combination Device," is a patent document previously filed by the applicant. It has already provided a detailed introduction to the background technology and offered a targeted technical solution to the problem of large particulate impurities clogging the drain outlet in the background technology, including filtering out large particles by setting a filter screen in the filter tank.
[0004] However, the following drawbacks were discovered in subsequent practical applications: after the gas enters the tank, it will move in two directions. The first is a rotational motion along the inner wall of the tank, and the second is an upward motion of the gas. Both directions of motion occur simultaneously. When using the negative pressure air intake method, it was found that the upward air flow rate is greater than the rotational air flow rate, resulting in a large amount of gas that has not been effectively separated being discharged. When the air and airflow are discharged, they will carry a large amount of moisture, and the gas-water separation is relatively imperfect.
[0005] Based on the above issues, the applicant improved the original technical solution and solved the aforementioned drawbacks after multiple experiments. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a gas-water separator for textile dewatering production lines, which can improve the efficiency of gas rotation and enhance the effect and efficiency of water separation through the combination of a baffle and a conical filter cover.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0008] A gas-water separator for a textile dewatering production line includes a tank body with an openable and closable lid on top. The top and bottom of the tank body are respectively provided with an air outlet and an air inlet connected to an external air passage. The air inlet and outlet are connected to the side wall of the tank body to achieve an eccentric arrangement. A baffle is provided inside the tank body with through holes. The baffle is positioned higher than the air inlet. A filter cover is provided above the baffle to filter the gas flowing inside the tank.
[0009] The air inlet and outlet are connected to the side of the tank. During the process of water-containing gas entering the tank, it is first drawn in by an external negative pressure fan through the outlet, and then flows out of the tank. Since the air inlet and outlet are connected to the side wall of the tank, the gas will flow along the inner wall of the tank as soon as it enters the tank. At the same time, the use of the baffle prevents the gas from rising immediately, so that the gas will rotate and flow along the inner wall of the tank. During the rotation, the water in the gas will be separated and adhered to the inner wall of the tank, flowing along the inner wall and accumulating at the bottom of the tank. At the same time, the gas will rise through the through holes on the baffle.
[0010] The inner wall of the tank is provided with an installation plate for installing a filter cover; the installation plate is set as a ring plate with a central opening.
[0011] The filter cover is conical in shape, with a flange plate and a lifting rod at one end. The pointed end of the filter cover is inserted into the mounting plate and the mounting plate and flange plate on the filter cover are fixed by bolts. When the filter cover becomes clogged due to excessive impurities, the tank cover can be opened and the filter cover replaced.
[0012] Furthermore, the diameter of the through hole on the baffle is smaller than the port diameter of one end of the flange plate on the filter cover. When the gas rises along the through hole, it can be evenly dispersed along the conical surface of the filter cover to achieve filtration. At the same time, the baffle can effectively block the upward movement of moisture, which is conducive to improving the separation effect of water and gas.
[0013] The tank sidewall is provided with a pressure sensor, a first liquid level gauge, and a second liquid level gauge in sequence from top to bottom. The first and second liquid level gauges are located below the air inlet, and the first liquid level gauge is located above the second liquid level gauge. The pressure sensor is located above the filter cover. The pressure value fed back by the pressure sensor is used to determine the filter cover clogging status and replace it.
[0014] The tank is equipped with a drain pipe at the bottom. The drain pipe is connected to a water pump for pumping water and draining when air is drawn in under negative pressure. When the water level in the tank reaches the second level gauge, water is drained through the drain pipe. When the drainage volume is less than the water volume collected in the gas-water separation process and the accumulated water reaches the first level gauge, the gas-water separation process is stopped and the accumulated water is allowed to drain.
[0015] Preferably, a viewing window is provided on one side of the tank, through which the gas-water separation inside the tank can be observed.
[0016] Preferably, the bottom of the tank is provided with support legs for support.
[0017] The advantages of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:
[0018] The air inlet and outlet on the outer wall of the tank are eccentrically positioned relative to the tank's centerline. This allows the gas to rotate and rise along the inner wall of the tank after entering. During this rotation, water in the gas is separated and extracted, flowing along the inner wall and accumulating at the bottom of the tank. Simultaneously, the baffle and through-holes suppress the gas, preventing it from rising immediately upon entering the tank. This increases the force of the gas rotation, hindering its rapid ascent and preventing water from being carried upwards. This allows sufficient time for the water to flow along the inner wall to the bottom of the tank, improving the efficiency of the rotational separation and extraction. Furthermore, the baffle catches filter material falling from the filter cover, preventing excessive accumulation at the bottom of the tank and clogging the drain pipe.
[0019] Furthermore, the filter cover above the baffle is designed as a cone shape, with the pointed end pointing downwards to the through hole on the baffle. This allows the gas ejected from the through hole to be evenly dispersed on the cone surface as it rises along the cone surface for filtration. At the same time, the cone shape can also greatly increase the filtration area and improve the filtration efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0026] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the following is in conjunction with the appendix. Figure 1-5 The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below.
[0027] A gas-water separator for a textile dehydration production line includes a tank 1. The top of the tank 1 is provided with an openable and closable tank cover 4. The top and bottom of the tank 1 are respectively provided with an air outlet 2 and an air inlet 3 that connect to an external air passage. The air inlet 3 and the air outlet 2 are connected to the side wall of the tank 1 to achieve an eccentric setting. The tank 1 is provided with a baffle 5 inside, and the baffle 5 is provided with a through hole 51. The baffle 5 is positioned higher than the air inlet 3. A filter cover 6 is provided above the baffle 5 to filter the gas flowing inside the tank 1.
[0028] The air inlet 3 and air outlet 2 are connected to the side of the tank 1. During the process of water-containing gas entering the tank 1, it is first drawn in by an external negative pressure fan through the air outlet 2, and then flows out of the tank 1. Since the air inlet 3 and air outlet 2 are connected to the side wall of the tank 1, the gas will flow along the inner wall of the tank 1 immediately when it enters the tank 1. At the same time, the use of the baffle 5 can prevent the gas from rising immediately, so that the gas will rotate and flow along the inner wall of the tank 1. During the rotation, the water in the gas will be separated and adhered to the inner wall of the tank 1, flowing along the inner wall and accumulating at the bottom of the tank. At the same time, the gas will rise through the through hole 51 on the baffle 5.
[0029] The inner wall of the tank 1 is provided with an installation plate 14 for installing the filter cover 6; the installation plate 14 is set as a ring plate with a central opening.
[0030] The filter cover 6 is conical in shape. One end of the filter cover 6 is provided with a flange plate 61 and a lifting rod 62. The tip of the filter cover 6 is inserted into the mounting plate 14 with the tip pointing downwards and the mounting plate 14 and the flange plate 61 on the filter cover 6 are fixed by bolts. When the filter cover 6 becomes clogged due to excessive impurities, the can lid 4 can be opened and the filter cover 6 can be replaced.
[0031] Furthermore, the diameter of the through hole 51 on the baffle 5 is smaller than the port diameter of one end of the flange plate 61 on the filter cover 6. When the gas rises along the through hole 51, it can be uniformly dispersed along the conical surface of the filter cover 6 to achieve filtration.
[0032] The tank body 1 has a pressure sensor 7, a first level gauge 8, and a second level gauge 9 arranged sequentially from top to bottom on its side wall. The first level gauge 8 and the second level gauge 9 are located below the air inlet 3, and the first level gauge 8 is located above the second level gauge 9. The pressure sensor 7 is located above the filter cover 6. The pressure value fed back by the pressure sensor 7 is used to determine the clogging status of the filter cover 6 and to replace it. The pressure sensor 7, the first level gauge 8, and the second level gauge 9 are purchased from the market and are fixed using conventional electrical connections and installation methods. The level gauge model is QDY30A-N, and the pressure sensor model is BRW800-2300.
[0033] The tank 1 is equipped with a drain pipe 13 at the bottom. The drain pipe is connected to a water pump for pumping water and draining when air is drawn in under negative pressure. When the water level in the tank 1 reaches the second level gauge 9, water is drained through the drain pipe 13. When the drainage volume is less than the water volume collected in the gas-water separation process and the accumulated water reaches the first level gauge 8, the gas-water separation process is stopped and the accumulated water is allowed to drain.
[0034] A viewing window 11 is provided on one side of the tank 1, through which the gas-water separation inside the tank 1 can be observed.
[0035] The bottom of the tank body 1 is provided with support legs 12 for support.
[0036] An air-water separator for a textile dehydration production line operates as follows:
[0037] The externally installed negative pressure fan connected to the air outlet 2 draws in air. The water-containing gas enters the tank 1 through the air inlet 3 and rotates along the inner wall of the tank 1. During this process, water is separated and flows along the inner wall of the tank 1, collecting at the bottom of the tank 1 and drained through the drain pipe 13. The rising gas flows through the baffle 5 and is filtered by the filter cover 6, and then discharged through the air outlet 2. When the filter cover 6 is severely clogged due to filtering too much debris, the tank cover 4 is opened and the filter is replaced.
