Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water treatment technology, and more specifically, to a condensate recovery system. Background Technology

[0002] In the food production industry, processing plants generate a large amount of heat, which is typically discharged to the outside through exhaust pipes. This direct release of heat into the air can easily harm the atmospheric environment. Installing condensate recovery equipment can effectively handle the heat generated during industrial production, protecting the atmospheric environment and recycling water resources. However, current condensate recovery equipment is complex in structure and expensive, making it unsuitable for large-scale deployment in the production industry. There is a lack of such equipment in this field that is simple in structure, low in cost, and highly efficient in recycling. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a condensate recovery system to solve the problems of complex structure and high cost of existing technologies.

[0005] With this configuration, the hot air from the exhaust pipe enters the collection box through the connecting pipe. Inside, there are multiple interconnected collection plates at different heights, allowing the hot air entering the collection box to fully contact the plates and achieve rapid condensation. Both the collection plates and the collection box are inclined downwards from the collection inlet to the collection outlet to facilitate the collection of condensate. The collected condensate flows from the collection outlet through the liquid collection pipe to the recovery chamber. Through structural improvements, this design achieves rapid collection of condensate. The overall structure of this application is simple, the cost is low, and it solves the problems existing in the prior art.

[0006] Furthermore, a filter element is provided inside the connecting pipe, and the hot air discharged from the exhaust pipe enters the collection box through the filter element.

[0007] Furthermore, the collecting plate is corrugated, and the grooves of the corrugations extend in the same direction as the tilt direction of the collecting plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the collecting plate is detachably connected to the collecting box.

[0009] Furthermore, the two opposite sides of the collection box connected to the collection inlet mounting surface are provided with mounting grooves, and at least one side of the collection plate is provided with a mounting strip, which is configured to slide along the mounting groove.

[0010] Furthermore, gaps are provided between the collecting plate and the mounting sides of the collecting inlet and the collecting outlet, respectively.

[0019] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0020] To address the issue of heat emissions in food production, this embodiment provides a condensate recovery system, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it is usually installed on the roof of the factory building to be installed. It is equipped with a connecting pipe that can be connected to the exhaust pipe on the roof. The other end of the connecting pipe is connected to a collection box. The collection box is inclined and can be set at the same angle as the roof for easy installation. The bottom of the collection box can be installed on the roof by a bracket. The installation method is not limited. Those skilled in the art can choose an appropriate installation method according to the situation of the factory building to be installed. It will not be elaborated here. The collection box can be a rectangular flat box. Multiple collection plates can be set in its height direction. The collection plates have vents extending in the height direction, so that multiple collection plates can be connected. The hot air entering the collection box through the connecting pipe can fully contact the multiple collection plates to achieve rapid condensation of the hot air. The collection plates are also inclined in the same direction as the collection box. There is a collection outlet on the opposite side of the collection inlet, which is used to connect to the downward-extending liquid collection pipe. At the lower end of the liquid collection pipe, there is a recovery chamber for storing condensate.

[0021] This allows the hot air in the exhaust pipe to enter the collection box through the connecting pipe and come into contact with multiple collection plates inside the collection box, where it condenses to form condensate. The condensate then flows downwards along the inclined direction of the collection plates and the collection box to the collection outlet, and is then transported to the recovery chamber by the collection pipe. The recovery system in this embodiment achieves efficient recovery of condensate with only simple structural improvements, without requiring excessive cost investment, thus solving the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0022] Preferably, the collection plate and the collection box are detachably connected, such as... Figure 2 As shown in the cross-sectional view of the collection box, there are mounting grooves on both sides of the collection inlet. The collection plate has mounting strips on both sides that can be matched with the mounting grooves, so that the collection plate can slide along the mounting grooves, making it easy to install, remove or replace the mounting plate.

[0023] To increase the surface area of ​​the collecting plate, it is preferable to design it as a corrugated shape, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the corrugated grooves extend in the same direction as the inclined direction of the collecting plate, which facilitates the collection and gathering of condensate.

[0024] Preferably, gaps are provided between the collecting plates and the two sides of the collecting inlet and collecting outlet to facilitate the rapid dispersion of hot air from the collecting inlet into each collecting plate, and to allow the condensate collected on the collecting plates to quickly converge to the collecting outlet side; preferably, to enhance the efficiency of water collection, the bottom of the collecting tank can be designed with a shape that is higher on both sides and lower in the middle, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the collection outlet is located on the lowest outer surface of the bottom of the collection box.

[0025] Considering that the hot air may contain pollutants and impurities, a filter element can be installed inside the connecting pipe so that the hot air entering the connecting pipe can be filtered by the filter element, avoiding the accumulation of impurities in the collection box or causing water pollution. The material of the filter element is not limited, as long as it can play a role in filtering and preventing dust.

[0026] While the present invention has been disclosed above, it is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and alterations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
