Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an auxiliary collection device for positive pressure discharge of air and water from an air compressor, belonging to the technical field of air compressor equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Compressed air is a highly efficient and clean power source, widely used in various industries, including industrial production, energy, medical, and transportation. Applications include pharmaceutical filling lines, packaging (pneumatic sealing), bottle and can cleaning, and equipment driving. Because air compressors compress air during operation, the resulting high-pressure compressed air contains a significant amount of moisture. The air compressor unit has two sets of discharge valves: one set is the interstage discharge valve (between stages 1 and 2), a low-pressure discharge valve with a discharge pressure of approximately 2 kg; the other set is the high-pressure discharge valve for the generated air, with a discharge pressure of approximately 8 kg. The unit requires an open discharge environment, meaning it must be discharged into an open ditch or have independent pipes leading to an open area for each outlet. Otherwise, it will affect the normal operation of the air compressor unit, resulting in a high overall project investment cost. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an auxiliary collection device for positive pressure discharge of air and water from an air compressor, in order to solve the technical problem that the requirement for open discharge in existing air compressors leads to high costs.

[0004] This utility model adopts the following technical solution: an auxiliary collection device for positive pressure discharge of air and water from an air compressor, comprising a collection box with an opening at the top and a pressure relief cover installed at the opening of the collection box. The pressure relief cover has an exhaust hole. An air-water damping pipe is connected to the side wall of the collection box, connecting the inside and outside of the collection box. The upper end of the air-water damping pipe is installed on the side wall of the collection box and is used to connect to the outlet pipe of the air compressor's discharge valve. The lower end of the air-water damping pipe contacts a sound-absorbing pad. A damping diaphragm is provided inside the air-water damping pipe. A water-permeable and air-permeable sound-absorbing pad is provided inside the collection box. The height of the sound-absorbing pad is higher than the lower end of the air-water damping pipe. A drain outlet is provided in the collection box below the sound-absorbing pad.

[0005] The bottom of the collection box is a tapered structure that tapers downwards, and the drain outlet is located at the bottom of the tapered structure.

[0006] The drain outlet is connected to a quick-connect fitting.

[0007] The upper part of the air-water damping pipe is bent and the lower part is a straight pipe structure. There are two air-water damping pipes, and both air-water damping pipes are integrally connected to the rear wall of the collection box.

[0008] The side wall of the collection box is equipped with a quick-connect air pipe. The number of quick-connect air pipes is equal to the number of air-water damping pipes, and each quick-connect air pipe is connected to the upper end of each air-water damping pipe.

[0009] The damping septum adopts a semi-circular structure, with each damping septum spaced apart from top to bottom, and adjacent damping septums arranged alternately from left to right.

[0010] The sound-absorbing pad is composed of multiple layers of corrugated pads stacked on top of each other; the sound-absorbing pad is made of nylon material.

[0011] The vent holes are arranged in a rectangular array in the middle of the pressure relief cover.

[0012] The top of the collection box has an open structure. The rear edge of the pressure relief cover is hinged and rotated on the collection box. The front edge of the pressure relief cover is provided with a lug, and the lug is provided with a locking element for locking onto the collection box.

[0013] The collection box, pressure relief cover, air-water damping pipe, and damping diaphragm are all made of 304 stainless steel, and the damping diaphragm is welded and fixed inside the air-water damping pipe.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When in use, the outlet pipe of the air compressor's discharge valve is connected to the air-water damping pipe. The air and water from the air compressor enter the nylon sound-absorbing pad through the air-water damping pipe. The damping diaphragm inside the air-water damping pipe performs preliminary air-water separation and buffer pressure relief for low-pressure and high-pressure gases. The sound-absorbing pad reduces the noise of water vapor discharge, further separates the air and water, and prevents splashing. The separated water is discharged from the drain port at the bottom of the collection box, and the separated gas is discharged from the exhaust port on the pressure relief cover. This utility model's air compressor air-water positive pressure discharge auxiliary collection device is directly connected to the air compressor's discharge valve, enabling water-water separation and pressure relief. The discharge pressure is close to atmospheric pressure, allowing for open discharge. Therefore, it has low requirements for the discharge environment and reduces the overall project cost of the air compressor system.

[0015] As a preferred option, the quick-connect fittings installed on the drain outlet can be connected to the public discharge pipes or outlets on site, facilitating cleaning and installation.

[0016] As a preferred option, the air-water damping pipe adopts the form of a straight pipe with an elbow, which is integrated with the collection box, saving on-site installation steps.

[0017] As a preferred option, the quick-connect tubing can be quickly connected to the outlet pipe of the air compressor's discharge valve, making on-site installation simple.

[0018] As a preferred option, conventional pre-made nylon sound-absorbing pads are used and laid inside the collection box, which have good sound absorption, air-water separation and splash prevention effects.

[0019] As a preferred option, the pressure relief cover is hinged to the top of the collection box. The entire pressure relief cover can be opened and closed vertically and is equipped with a handle and a lug. During normal use, the pressure relief cover is closed to prevent possible splashing.
