[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of heat exchanger technology, and in particular relates to a heat exchanger and gas cooling device suitable for equipment cooling. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production processes, many pieces of equipment generate a large amount of heat during operation.

The gas cooling device provided by this utility model is provided with a tank, which can carry the cooling oil through the bearing chamber of the tank, and discharge the cooled liquid carbon dioxide through the outlet at the bottom of the tank, and discharge the mixture of unliquefied carbon dioxide gas and hydrogen gas through the exhaust port at the top of the tank; the gas conveying structure is provided on the tank, which can extend from the top of the tank into the bearing chamber and extend to the bottom of the bearing chamber, and discharge the mixed gas from below the liquid surface of the cooling oil for cooling; the cooling structure is provided on the tank, which can cool the mixed gas in the upper part of the bearing chamber, with good cooling efficiency and practicality."
[0004] However, existing technologies can only cool the water and cannot recycle the condensate. They also cannot filter hot air and are inconvenient to disassemble and install filter plates. Therefore, it is necessary to design a heat exchanger and gas cooling device suitable for equipment cooling. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides a heat exchanger and gas cooling device suitable for equipment cooling, aiming to solve the problems of some currently used gas cooling devices being unable to recycle condensate and unable to filter hot gas, thus affecting heat exchange efficiency.
[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows: a heat exchanger and gas cooling device suitable for equipment cooling includes a liquid storage tank; an inlet pipe disposed at the top of the liquid storage tank; a control panel disposed on the outer wall of the liquid storage tank; a reflux circulation assembly assembled on the outer wall of the liquid storage tank; the liquid storage tank being connected to a heat exchanger body through the reflux circulation assembly; an outlet valve installed at the bottom of the liquid storage tank; a condenser installed inside the liquid storage tank; a quick-release filter assembly assembled at the top of the heat exchanger body; an inlet pipe installed at the top of the quick-release filter assembly; the bottom end of the quick-release filter assembly extending through the outer wall of the heat exchanger body to the interior and connecting to a heat exchange tube; and the bottom end of the heat exchange tube extending through the interior of the heat exchanger body to the exterior and connecting to an outlet pipe.
[0007] Preferably, the reflux circulation assembly includes: a water pump disposed at the top of the storage tank, one end of the water pump being connected to a suction pipe, one end of the suction pipe extending to the bottom of the storage tank, the output end of the water pump being connected to a delivery pipe, one end of the delivery pipe extending through the outer wall of the heat exchanger body into the interior.
[0008] Preferably, the quick-release filter assembly includes: a filter cylinder installed at the top of the heat exchanger body; an installation groove provided on the inner wall of the filter cylinder; a filter plate movably installed on the filter cylinder through the installation groove; snap-fit blocks symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the filter cylinder; a sealing cover installed on the filter cylinder through the snap-fit blocks; snap-fit grooves symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the sealing cover; a spring installed at the bottom end of the sealing cover; and a retaining ring provided at the bottom end of the spring.
[0009] Preferably, the snap-fit groove has a circular convex structure, and the cross-section of the snap-fit groove has an L-shaped groove structure, and the snap-fit block and the snap-fit groove fit together.
[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the mounting groove is provided with a circular groove, which engages with the filter plate.
[0011] Preferably, the heat exchange tubes are evenly distributed in a spiral structure inside the heat exchanger body, and the top end of the heat exchange tubes is connected to the bottom end of the filter cylinder.
[0012] Preferably, the filter plate has a circular block structure, and the outer wall of the filter plate is uniformly provided with filter holes.
[0013] Preferably, the fixing ring has a circular ring structure and is located directly above the mounting groove.
[0014] Compared with related technologies, the heat exchanger and gas cooling device for equipment cooling provided by this utility model have the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. When the filter plate needs to be replaced, rotate the sealing cover 90 degrees clockwise. Since the spring is in a pre-compressed state, once the sealing cover is rotated to the correct position, the elastic force generated by the spring deformation pushes the sealing cover upward, thereby separating the sealing cover from the top of the filter cylinder. The locking groove and fixing ring are then removed from the inside of the filter cylinder, causing the fixing ring to stop engaging with the installation groove to clamp and fix the outer wall of the filter plate. The filter plate is then removed from the inside of the installation groove. After cleaning the filter plate, it is re-engaged with the installation groove. The locking groove on the outer wall of the sealing cover is aligned with the locking block and installed at the top of the filter cylinder. At the same time, press down and rotate counterclockwise 90 degrees. When pressing, the spring is compressed, causing the fixing ring to engage with the installation groove to clamp and fix the filter plate. Simultaneously, the reaction force generated by the spring compression causes the locking groove to abut against the locking block, preventing the sealing cover from loosening. This structure can filter hot air and facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the filter plate.
[0016] 2. Start the water pump through the control panel, and draw the condensate from the storage tank through the suction pipe and then introduce it into the heat exchanger body through the delivery pipe to exchange heat and cool the hot air. The used condensate is then returned through the return pipe for recooling and recycling. This structure can save condensate and recycle it multiple times. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Example 1
[0026] A preferred embodiment of the heat exchanger and gas cooling device for equipment cooling provided by this utility model is, for example... Figures 1 to 5 As shown: A heat exchanger and gas cooling device suitable for equipment cooling includes a liquid storage tank 1; an inlet pipe 3 disposed at the top of the liquid storage tank 1; a control panel 4 disposed on the outer wall of the liquid storage tank 1; a reflux circulation assembly 7 assembled on the outer wall of the liquid storage tank 1; the liquid storage tank 1 is connected to a heat exchanger body 2 through the reflux circulation assembly 7; an outlet valve 5 is installed at the bottom of the liquid storage tank 1; a condenser 6 is installed inside the liquid storage tank 1; a quick-release filter assembly 8 is assembled at the top of the heat exchanger body 2; an air inlet pipe 9 is installed at the top of the quick-release filter assembly 8; the bottom end of the quick-release filter assembly 8 extends through the outer wall of the heat exchanger body 2 and connects to the interior through a heat exchange tube 10; the bottom end of the heat exchange tube 10 extends through the interior of the heat exchanger body 2 and connects to the exterior through an outlet pipe 11.
[0027] It should be noted that some existing heat exchangers and gas cooling devices suitable for equipment cooling still have certain shortcomings in actual use. They can only cool hot gas and cannot recover the coolant for recycling. At the same time, they cannot filter the gas during use, and impurities are easily left in the device, affecting the heat exchange effect.
[0028] In this embodiment, condensate is injected into the storage tank 1 through the inlet pipe 3. The reflux circulation component 7 is activated through the control panel 4 to draw the condensate into the heat exchanger body 2. Hot air is filtered through the quick-release filter component 8 through the air inlet pipe 9 and then introduced into the heat exchange tube 10 inside the heat exchanger body 2. The spiral structure of the heat exchange tube 10 allows the hot air to exchange heat with the condensate inside the heat exchanger body 2 to the maximum extent when passing through it, so that the hot air is cooled and discharged through the air outlet pipe 11. The used condensate flows back into the storage tank 1 through the reflux circulation component 7 and is cooled again by the condenser 6, so that it can be reused multiple times. When the condensate needs to be replaced, the outlet valve 5 is opened to discharge the condensate from the waste gas, and then new condensate is injected again through the inlet pipe 3.
[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the reflux circulation component 7 includes: a water pump 701 disposed at the top of the storage tank 1, one end of the water pump 701 being connected to a suction pipe 702, one end of the suction pipe 702 extending to the bottom of the storage tank 1, the output end of the water pump 701 being connected to a delivery pipe 704, one end of the delivery pipe 704 penetrating through the outer wall of the heat exchanger body 2 and extending into the interior; and a reflux pipe 703 installed at the bottom of the storage tank 1, the end of the reflux pipe 703 away from the storage tank 1 being connected to the bottom of the heat exchanger body 2.
[0030] In this embodiment, the water pump 701 is started by the control panel 4, and the condensate inside the storage tank 1 is drawn out by the suction pipe 702 and then introduced into the heat exchanger body 2 through the delivery pipe 704 to exchange heat with the hot air and cool it. The condensate after use is then returned through the return pipe 703 for recooling and recycling.
[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the heat exchange tubes 10 are evenly distributed in a spiral structure inside the heat exchanger body 2, and the top end of the heat exchange tubes 10 is connected to the bottom end of the filter cylinder 801.
[0032] In this embodiment, the spiral structure of the heat exchange tube 10 allows the hot air to maximize contact and heat exchange with the condensate inside the heat exchanger body 2 as it flows through.
[0033] Example 2
[0034] Based on Embodiment 1, a preferred embodiment of the heat exchanger and gas cooling device suitable for equipment cooling provided by this utility model is, for example... Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown: The quick-release filter assembly 8 includes: a filter cylinder 801 installed at the top of the heat exchanger body 2; an installation groove 802 is provided on the inner wall of the filter cylinder 801; a filter plate 807 is movably installed on the filter cylinder 801 through the installation groove 802; snap-fit blocks 803 are symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the filter cylinder 801; a sealing cover 804 is installed on the filter cylinder 801 through the snap-fit blocks 803 or; snap-fit grooves 805 are symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the sealing cover 804; a spring 806 is installed at the bottom end of the sealing cover 804; and a retaining ring 808 is provided at the bottom end of the spring 806.
[0035] In this embodiment, when the filter plate 807 needs to be replaced, the sealing cover 804 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Since the spring 806 is in a pre-compressed state, once the sealing cover 804 is rotated to its final position, the elastic force generated by the deformation of the spring 806 pushes the sealing cover 804 upwards, thereby separating the sealing cover 804 from the top of the filter cylinder 801. The locking groove 805 and the fixing ring 808 are then removed from the inside of the filter cylinder 801, causing the fixing ring 808 to stop engaging with the mounting groove 802 to clamp and fix the outer wall of the filter plate 807, thus securing the filter plate 807. 7. Remove the filter plate 807 from the inside of the mounting groove 802, clean it, and re-engage it with the mounting groove 802. Align the snap-fit groove 805 on the outer wall of the sealing cover 804 with the snap-fit block 803 and install it on the top of the filter cylinder 801. At the same time, press down and rotate it counterclockwise by 90 degrees. When pressing, the spring 806 is compressed, so that the fixing ring 808 cooperates with the mounting groove 802 to clamp and fix the filter plate 807. At the same time, the reaction force generated by the compression of the spring 806 makes the snap-fit groove 805 abut against the snap-fit block 803 to prevent the sealing cover 804 from loosening.
[0036] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the snap-fit groove 805 has a circular convex structure, and the cross-section of the snap-fit groove 805 has an L-shaped groove structure, and the snap-fit block 803 and the snap-fit groove 805 fit together.
[0037] In this embodiment, the L-shaped groove structure of the snap-fit groove 805 allows the sealing cover 804 to be movably installed on the top of the filter cylinder 801 while preventing the sealing cover 804 from loosening and falling off due to gas compression.
[0038] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the outer wall of the mounting groove 802 is provided with a circular groove, which engages with the filter plate 807.
[0039] In this embodiment, the hot air entering the filter cartridge 801 can be fully filtered while the filter plate 807 can be easily replaced.
[0040] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the filter plate 807 has a circular block structure, and filter holes are uniformly arranged on the outer wall of the filter plate 807.
[0041] In this embodiment, the circular block structure of the filter plate 807 is matched with the mounting groove 802, and the filter holes uniformly arranged on the outer wall of the filter plate 807 are used to filter impurities from the passing hot air.
[0042] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fixing ring 808 has a circular ring structure and is located directly above the mounting groove 802.
[0043] In this embodiment, a circular ring structure of a fixing ring 808 is pressed on top of the filter plate 807, and the filter plate 807 in the middle is fixed in conjunction with the mounting groove 802.
[0044] In summary, by starting the water pump 701 via the control panel 4, the condensate inside the storage tank 1 is drawn out through the suction pipe 702 and then introduced into the heat exchanger body 2 through the delivery pipe 704 to exchange heat with the hot air for cooling. The used condensate is then returned through the return pipe 703 for recooling and recycling. New condensate is then injected through the inlet pipe 3, and hot air is introduced into the filter cartridge 801 through the air inlet pipe 9. The hot air is filtered by the filter plate 807, and the filtered hot air enters the heat exchange tube 10. The spiral structure of the heat exchange tube 10 allows the hot air to have maximum contact with the condensate inside the heat exchanger body 2 for heat exchange. After cooling, the air is discharged through the outlet pipe 11. When the filter plate 807 needs to be replaced, the sealing cover 804 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Since the spring 806 is in a pre-compressed state, once the sealing cover 804 is rotated to the correct position, the elastic force generated by the deformation of the spring 806 pushes the sealing cover... The cap 804 moves upward, thus separating the cap 804 from the top of the filter cylinder 801. Together with the snap-fit groove 805 and the retaining ring 808, it is removed from the inside of the filter cylinder 801. This stops the retaining ring 808 from engaging with the mounting groove 802 to clamp and fix the filter plate 807 to the outer wall, allowing the filter plate 807 to be removed from the mounting groove 802. After cleaning the filter plate 807, it is re-engaged with the mounting groove 802. The snap-fit groove 805 on the outer wall of the cap 804 is aligned with the snap-fit block 803 and installed at the top of the filter cylinder 801. Simultaneously, downward pressure is applied and the filter plate is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise. During this pressing, the spring 806 is compressed, causing the retaining ring 808 to engage with the mounting groove 802 to clamp and fix the filter plate 807. The reaction force generated by the compression of the spring 806 causes the snap-fit groove 805 to abut against the snap-fit block 803, preventing the cap 804 from loosening. This structure improves the cooling effect and facilitates the removal and installation of the filter plate 807 while filtering hot air.
