Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cyclone oil-water separation technology, specifically to a novel cyclone tube. Background Technology

[0002] The basic principle of a hydrocyclone is to separate two-phase or multi-phase mixtures with a certain density difference, such as liquid-liquid, liquid-solid, and liquid-gas, under the action of centrifugal force.

[0003] The existing vortex tubes connect the outlet pipe to the water passage via threaded or flanged connections. Waterproofing is achieved by simply adding a sealing ring between the threads or flanges, which often leads to risks such as water leakage at the outlet connection.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new type of vortex tube with better water outlet sealing performance. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a novel cyclone tube to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A novel cyclone tube includes a cyclone separator, an inlet connector, and an outlet pipe connected in sequence. The end of the outlet pipe away from the inlet connector is connected to an outlet passage. The outlet pipe and the outlet passage are plugged into each other and a first sealing element is provided between them. A first convex ring is provided on the outlet pipe, and a second convex ring is provided on the outlet passage. The first convex ring and the second convex ring are connected by a sealing connector, and a sealed chamber is formed between the first convex ring, the second convex ring, and the sealing connector. A second sealing element is provided between the first convex ring and the sealing connector, and a third sealing element is provided between the second convex ring and the sealing connector.

[0008] Furthermore, the sealing connector has a U-shaped structure, and a snap-fit ​​portion is provided on the inner wall of the sealing connector near the second convex ring. A snap-fit ​​groove adapted to the snap-fit ​​portion is provided on the side wall of the second convex ring, and the end of the sealing connector away from the snap-fit ​​portion is connected to the first convex ring.

[0009] Furthermore, the second seal is disposed between the adjacent sidewalls of the first convex ring and the sealing connector.

[0010] Furthermore, the third sealing element is disposed between the top end of the second convex ring and the sealing connector.

[0011] Furthermore, the first convex ring is provided with a first threaded hole, and the sealing connector is provided with a second threaded hole that matches the first threaded hole. The first threaded hole and the second threaded hole are connected by an adjusting bolt.

[0012] Furthermore, the end of the water outlet pipe is provided with a plug-in part, the end of the water outlet passage is provided with a plug-in sleeve, the plug-in part is adapted to the plug-in sleeve, and the first sealing element is provided between the plug-in part and the plug-in sleeve.

[0013] Furthermore, the surface of the cyclone is uniformly distributed with several cyclone plates, the end of the cyclone near the liquid inlet connector is provided with an oil inlet, and the end of the cyclone away from the liquid inlet connector is provided with an oil outlet.

[0014] Furthermore, the cyclone separator is connected to the liquid inlet connector via a hidden groove.

[0015] Furthermore, the right end surface of the liquid inlet connector has several liquid inlets evenly distributed in a ring shape.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] The first and second convex rings are connected by a sealing connector to form a sealed chamber. This, together with the first, second, and third sealing elements, forms a multi-layered seal, effectively ensuring the water outlet sealing performance.

[0018] After the first or second seal ages, the tight connection between the components can be ensured by adjusting the adjusting bolts, thereby further guaranteeing the sealing performance.

[0019] Uniform liquid inlet flow prevents clogging of the inlet. Several swirling plates are evenly arranged on the surface of the swirler to optimize the swirling effect of the liquid inlet and achieve efficient oil-water separation.

[0020] The hydrocyclone and the liquid inlet connector are connected by a snap-fit ​​structure formed by the engagement of a hidden groove and a hidden buckle, which makes it easy to disassemble and clean the hydrocyclone. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] Combination Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a novel cyclone tube, comprising a cyclone separator 1, an inlet connector 2, and an outlet pipe 3 connected in sequence. The end of the outlet pipe 3 furthest from the inlet connector 2 is connected to an outlet passage 4. The outlet pipe 3 and the outlet passage 4 are plugged into each other, with a first sealing element 5 between them. A first convex ring 7 is provided on the outlet pipe 3, and a second convex ring 8 is provided on the outlet passage. The first convex ring 7 and the second convex ring 8 are connected by a sealing connector 6. A sealed chamber 9 is formed between the first convex ring 7, the second convex ring 8, and the sealing connector 6. The sealed chamber 9 has a certain pressure. When the first sealing element 5 leaks, the sealed chamber 9 can prevent liquid from flowing out to a certain extent, improving the overall sealing performance. A second sealing element 10 is provided between the first convex ring 7 and the sealing connector 6, and a third sealing element 11 is provided between the second convex ring 8 and the sealing connector 6.

[0029] In this embodiment, the first sealing element 5, the second sealing element 10, and the third sealing element 11 are all rubber sealing rings.

[0030] The sealing connector 6 has a U-shaped structure. The sealing connector 6 has a snap-fit ​​part 12 near the inner wall of the second convex ring 8. The side wall of the second convex ring 8 has a snap-fit ​​groove 13 that matches the snap-fit ​​part 12. The end of the sealing connector 6 away from the snap-fit ​​part 12 is connected to the first convex ring 7.

[0031] The second sealing member 10 is disposed between the adjacent sidewalls of the first convex ring 7 and the sealing connector 6; the third sealing member 11 is disposed between the top end of the second convex ring 8 and the sealing connector 6.

[0032] In this embodiment, the first sealing element 5 forms a primary seal connecting the water outlet pipe 3 and the water outlet passage, and the second sealing element 10 and the third sealing element 11 form a secondary seal. Together with the pressure interruption effect of the sealing chamber 9, a stable sealed connection between the water outlet pipe 3 and the water outlet passage 4 can be ensured.

[0033] The first convex ring 7 is provided with a first threaded hole, and the sealing connector 6 is provided with a second threaded hole that matches the first threaded hole. The first threaded hole and the second threaded hole are connected by an adjusting bolt 14. By tightening the adjusting bolt, it can be ensured that the sealing connector 6 is in close contact with the first convex ring 7 and the second convex ring 8 respectively.

[0034] The end of the water outlet pipe 3 is provided with a plug-in part 15, and the end of the water outlet passage 4 is provided with a plug-in sleeve 16. The plug-in part 15 is adapted to the plug-in sleeve 16, and the first sealing member 5 is provided between the plug-in part 15 and the plug-in sleeve 16.

[0035] The surface of the cyclone separator 1 is uniformly distributed with several cyclone plates 17. The uniform arrangement of several cyclone plates on the surface of the cyclone separator optimizes the cyclone effect of the liquid inlet and achieves the purpose of efficient oil-water separation. The right end surface of the liquid inlet connector 2 is uniformly distributed with several liquid inlets 19 in a ring shape, which ensures uniform liquid inlet and prevents the liquid inlet from being blocked. The end of the cyclone separator 1 near the liquid inlet connector 2 is provided with an oil inlet, and the end of the cyclone separator away from the liquid inlet connector 2 is provided with an oil outlet 18.

[0036] The cyclone separator is connected to the liquid inlet connector via a hidden groove and a hidden snap fastener. The cyclone separator and the liquid inlet connector are connected by a snap-fit ​​structure formed by the hidden groove and the hidden snap fastener, which makes it easy to disassemble and clean the cyclone separator.

[0037] The working principle of the cyclone tube in this embodiment is as follows:

[0038] When the oil-water mixture is driven by an external water pump or hydraulic power, it enters the swirling chamber wall inside the swirling tube through the inlet 19 on the side of the inlet connector 2. The oil-water mixture swirls inside the swirling chamber wall. The oily wastewater enters the swirling chamber from the circular tangential inlet and quickly turns into a swirling flow, generating a large centrifugal force. Due to the centrifugal force, the oil and water with different densities begin to separate at the tip of the swirling element 1. The oil phase flows out from the oil outlet 18 on the end face of the swirling element 1, and the water phase begins to separate from the tip of the swirling element 1 and enters the water outlet pipe 3. Finally, the water flows out through the water outlet passage 4, completing the separation operation. It has the characteristics of fast separation speed and high separation efficiency.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
