Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of water baths, specifically relating to a condensate circulation device for a water bath. Background Technology
[0002] Water baths are mainly used in laboratories for distillation, drying, concentration, and warm soaking of chemicals or biological products. They can also be used for constant temperature heating and other temperature tests. They are an important tool in research sites such as biology, genetics, virology, aquaculture, environmental protection, medicine, health, and laboratories. During the experimental heating process, the water in the flask boils and forms steam. The steam rises and condenses through the condenser to form liquid, which flows back into the flask along the inner wall of the condenser. However, since the boiling points of each experimental material are different, the temperature of the steam produced is also different. After the water in the condenser undergoes condensation and heat exchange, the temperature of the water will also be different. If this water is used for circulating condensation, the condensation effect of the condenser will be reduced, resulting in less refluxed liquid and affecting the accuracy of the experiment.
[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, this utility model proposes a condensate circulation device for a water bath that can guarantee the temperature of circulating water for condensation of the condenser tube. The device has a simple and reasonable structural design, which can effectively guarantee the condensation effect and improve the accuracy of the experiment. Utility Model Content

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0017] See Figure 1-2A condensate circulation device for a water bath includes a water bath body 1, a control panel 2 on one side of the water bath body 1, a controller inside the control panel 2, and a mounting plate 3 horizontally mounted on one side of the water bath body 1. The mounting plate 3 is fixed to the side wall of the water bath body 1. A cooler 4 and a water storage tank 5 are spaced apart on the mounting plate 3. The cooler 4 is used to cool the water discharged from the condenser pipe so that it can be circulated for subsequent cooling. The water storage tank 5 is used to store cooling water. The outlet of the cooler 4 is connected to the water storage tank 5 through a first connecting pipe 6. A circulating water pump is installed in the water storage tank 5. The outlet end of the circulating water pump is connected to a drain pipe 7, and the end of the drain pipe 7 extends to the outside of the water storage tank 5. The end of the inlet pipe of the cooler 4 is connected to an inlet connector 8, which is used to connect a hose to the outlet end of the condenser pipe. The end of the drain pipe 7 is connected to an outlet connector 9, which is used to connect a hose to the inlet end of the condenser pipe. The cooler 4 and the circulating water pump are connected to the controller through a signal line.
[0018] A three-way valve 10 is provided on the front side of the inlet pipe of the preferred cooler 4. One end of the three-way valve 10 is connected to the inlet pipe of the cooler 4, the other end is connected to the inlet connector 8, and the third end is connected to the water storage tank 5 through the second connecting pipe 11. The water storage tank 5 is equipped with a temperature sensor, which is connected to the controller through a signal line. The temperature sensor is used to monitor the temperature of the water in the water storage tank 5 in real time to ensure that the temperature of the cooling water used for condensation in the condenser is normal in real time. When the temperature of the water in the water storage tank 5 is normal, the three-way valve 10 is controlled to allow the water discharged from the condenser to flow into the water storage tank 5 through the second connecting pipe 11. When the water temperature in the water storage tank 5 is not sufficient for condensation in the condenser, the three-way valve 10 is controlled to allow the water discharged from the condenser to be cooled down by the cooler 4 before flowing into the water storage tank 5 through the first connecting pipe 6. This ensures that the cooling water temperature is normal in real time during the experiment, thus ensuring the smooth progress of the experiment.
[0019] The preferred three-way valve 10 is an electric three-way valve 10, which is connected to the controller via a signal line.
[0020] The preferred water storage tank 5 is provided with a trough cover on the top, and a water inlet is provided on the top of the trough cover. A plug 12 is provided on the water inlet, through which water can be injected into the water storage tank 5.
[0021] The preferred cooler 4 is provided with a fixing member 13 on the outside, and the fixing member 13 is fixed to the outside of the water bath body 1 by screws.
[0022] The preferred first connecting pipe 6 is provided with a fixing clip 14, one end of which is fixedly mounted on the outside of the water bath body 1.
[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Before the experiment, two connecting hoses are used to connect the inlet connector 8 to the outlet of the condenser tube and the outlet connector 9 to the inlet of the condenser tube. As the water bath body 1 heats the experimental flask, the circulating water pump is started, allowing the cooling water in the storage tank 5 to enter the condenser tube through the connecting hoses for condensation. As the temperature inside the flask rises, the steam generated rises to the condenser tube and, through heat exchange with the cooling water, forms liquid that flows back into the flask. At this time, as the cooling water absorbs heat, its temperature gradually rises. Then, the three-way valve 10 is controlled to allow water to flow from the second connecting pipe 11 into the storage tank 5. When the temperature sensor installed in the storage tank 5 detects that the cooling water temperature has reached the set value, the three-way valve 10 is controlled to allow water to pass through the cooler 4. After being cooled by the cooler 4, the water enters the storage tank 5 through the first connecting pipe 6, thus ensuring that the cooling water used for condensation in the condenser tube remains normal at all times, thereby effectively ensuring the condensation effect.
