Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oxygen production system technology, specifically to a balance tank for an oxygen production system. Background Technology

[0002] Oxygen production is a method of separating and obtaining oxygen from oxygen-containing raw materials through laboratory (such as hydrogen peroxide decomposition, heating of potassium chlorate or potassium permanganate, electrolysis of water, etc.) or industrial methods (such as evaporation of liquid air, molecular sieve adsorption, pressure swing adsorption, etc.). A balance tank is an industrial device that divides its internal cavity into a gas chamber and a liquid chamber through a buffer diaphragm. Its liquid chamber is equipped with a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet, and the gas chamber is equipped with an inlet and outlet and a gas valve. This dual-chamber diaphragm isolation design enables the balance tank to play an important role in the oxygen production system.

[0003] According to a patent published on the China Patent Network, the patent title is "An Oxygen Balance Tank," patent application number 202421030928.X. The tank comprises a body with a support plate at its bottom. Support legs are mounted on the support plate, and locking holes are provided on the support legs. Locking bolts are fitted into the locking holes. Liquid materials can enter the balance tank through the feed port on the tank body. A pressure-relieving balancing membrane is installed inside the balance tank. Utilizing the flexible structure of the balancing membrane, gas is generated during material reaction, pushing the balancing membrane out, allowing for a smoother release of pressurized gas and minimizing pressure fluctuations within the balance tank, thus achieving internal pressure balance. However, the aforementioned balance tank is connected to external gas pipes using flanges. Flange connections still have gaps at the connection points, which can cause gas leakage, compromising transmission quality and affecting the stability of the delivery process.

[0004] Therefore, the balance tank needs to be redesigned to effectively prevent poor sealing when connected to the air pipe. Utility Model Content

[0030] Connecting pipe 3 is located on the right side of exhaust pipe 2;

[0031] A reinforced sealing mechanism 4 is fixedly connected to the right side of the tank assembly 1. The reinforced sealing mechanism 4 includes a protrusion 5. An extension block 6 is slidably connected to the bottom of the right side of the protrusion 5. A double-headed toothed plate 7 is fixedly connected to the right side of the extension block 6. A semi-toothed gear 8 is movably connected to the front and rear sides of the right side of the protrusion 5 through bearings. The inner side of the semi-toothed gear 8 meshes with the double-headed toothed plate 7. A bent rod 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the semi-toothed gear 8. A sealing ring 10 is fixedly connected to the side of the bent rod 9 away from the semi-toothed gear 8. The inner side of the sealing ring 10 is located at the connection gap between the exhaust pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 3.

[0032] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A positioning mechanism 11 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the protrusion 5. The positioning mechanism 11 includes a connecting plate 12. A spring 13 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the right side of the connecting plate 12. A connecting plate 2 14 is fixedly connected to the right side of the spring 13. A lower plate 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 2 14. A locking block 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom left side of the lower plate 15. The left side of the locking block 16 extends through the interior of the double-headed toothed plate 7.

[0033] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the positioning mechanism 11 can be used to position the double-headed toothed plate 7, thus preventing it from falling.

[0034] refer to Figure 2 A protrusion 17 is fixedly connected to the right side of the connecting plate 14, and a pull rod 18 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the right side of the protrusion 17.

[0035] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the protruding head 17 and the pull rod 18 make it easier for users to pull the connecting plate 14, thus increasing user convenience.

[0036] refer to Figure 3 A vertical groove 19 is provided at the bottom right side of the protrusion 5, and the left side of the extension block 6 is slidably connected inside the vertical groove 19.

[0037] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the vertical groove 19 enables the extension block 6 to slide more smoothly inside the protrusion 5, reduces the friction between the extension block 6 and the protrusion 5, extends the service life of the extension block 6, and at the same time limits the extension block 6.

[0038] refer to Figure 2 A concave plate 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the double-headed toothed plate 7. The concave plate 20 is used in conjunction with the double-headed toothed plate 7.

[0041] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting the L-shaped plate 21, the connecting plate 24 can be more firmly connected to the lower plate 15, increasing the tightness between the two and avoiding separation.

[0042] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: First, the user moves the double-headed toothed plate 7 downward through the concave plate 20. The double-headed toothed plate 7 drives the half toothed gear 8 to rotate, the half toothed gear 8 drives the bent rod 9 to rotate, and the bent rod 9 drives the sealing ring 10 to flip, so that the sealing ring 10 covers the connection gap between the exhaust pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 3, thereby achieving the effect of reinforcing and sealing the connection. Then, the elasticity of the spring 13 causes the connecting plate 14 to retract to the left, and then drives the lower plate 15 to retract to the left. The lower plate 15 drives the locking block 16 to retract to the left, so that the locking block 16 penetrates into the interior of the double-headed toothed plate 7, thereby achieving the effect of positioning the double-headed toothed plate 7.

[0043] In summary, the balance tank for the oxygen production system improves the sealing performance of traditional pipe connections by using a sealing ring 10 to cover the gap between the exhaust pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 3, thus making gas transmission smoother, increasing the sealing performance between transmission points, and ensuring the stability of gas delivery.
