Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lubricating grease moisture monitoring technology, specifically an automatic dehydration and degassing system for lubricating grease moisture monitoring. Background Technology

[0002] Lubricating oil requires dehydration and degassing during production. Vacuum degassing removes air bubbles mixed in with the grease / oil, preventing bubbles from causing cloudy appearance and abnormal density, ensuring commercial quality. After dehydration and degassing, the viscosity of the lubricating medium is more stable, preventing moisture residue from causing abnormal thixotropy of the grease (such as decreased fluidity at low temperatures or rupture of the oil film at high temperatures), reducing cavitation effect, and ensuring the continuous and stable delivery capacity of pumps and valves in centralized grease supply systems.

[0003] The current dehydration and degassing of equipment lubricating oil and grease in the field generally suffers from the following problems: 1. slow efficiency; 2. the need for manual visual inspection and adjustment; 3. moisture monitoring requires opening the cap for inspection, which poses a safety hazard. These characteristics make the test operation time-consuming, labor-intensive, inconvenient and unsafe. Utility Model Content

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, an automatic dehydration and degassing system for monitoring the moisture content of lubricating grease includes a reaction vessel 1, and further includes: a conduit 2, fixedly connected to the bottom of the reaction vessel 1, with a transfer pump 4 fixedly connected to the end of the conduit 2 away from the conduit 2, and the inlet of the transfer pump 4 connected and fixedly connected to the conduit 2; a transfer pipe 5 is installed on the transfer pump 4, with a distributor 6 installed at the end of the transfer pipe 5 away from the transfer pump 4, and the outlet of the transfer pump 4 connected to the transfer pipe 5, and the distributor 6 installed on the reaction vessel 1; and a control component 7 installed on the top of the reaction vessel 1; the control component 7 is used to monitor the pressure and humidity inside the vessel.

[0023] It should be noted that the material in reactor 1 is transferred to distributor 6 via transfer pump 4 and transfer pipe 5, and finally distributed into the reactor by distributor 6. The advantage of this design is that the traditional circulation port is replaced by the distributor 6 for discharge, which increases the contact area between the material and air during the process from circulation port to material liquid surface in the reactor, thus improving the degassing efficiency. Then, the pressure and humidity in the reactor are monitored in real time by control component 7, and the pumping rate of the external vacuum system is automatically adjusted by the industrial control computer system (PLC controller) connected to reactor 1.

[0024] The control component 7 includes a pressure transmitter 701 and a humidity transmitter 702 fixedly installed on the top of the reactor 1. The pressure transmitter 701 detects the real-time pressure inside the reactor 1, and the humidity transmitter 702 monitors the humidity inside the reactor 1 in real time. It is connected to an external controller to adjust the pumping rate of the external vacuum system in a timely manner.

[0025] A valve 3 is installed between the conduit 2 and the transfer pump 4, and the valve 3 is used to control the opening and closing of the material transfer between the conduit 2 and the transfer pump 4.

[0026] A support base 8 is installed on the outside of the distributor 6. A fixing bolt 9 is fixedly connected to the support base 8, and a pressure plate 10 is installed on the fixing bolt 9. The support base 8 and the pressure plate 10 are respectively installed on the upper and lower sides of the connection between the reactor 1 and the reactor cover. Tightening the fixing bolt 9 fixes the pressure plate 10 and the support base 8 to the reactor 1. The support base 8 supports and fixes the distributor 6, improving the stability of the distributor 6 during use. A fixing frame 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support base 8. The pressure plate 10 is inserted into the fixing frame 11. A limit rod 12 is fixedly connected to the fixing frame 11. The pressure plate 10 slides outside the limit rod 12. When the pressure plate 10 moves on the fixing bolt 9, it interacts with the limit rod 12. To improve the stability of the pressure plate 10, the support base 8 is bolted with fastening bolts 14, and rubber pads 15 are fixedly connected to the fastening bolts 14. Fastening bolts 14 are threaded on both sides of the support base 8. By tightening the fastening bolts 14, the rubber pads 15 are driven to squeeze the sides of the distributor 6, improving the stability of the distributor 6 inside the support base 8. Anti-slip teeth 13 are fixedly connected to the pressure plate 10. Anti-slip teeth 13 can increase the friction on the outside of the pressure plate 10, thereby improving the fixing effect on the support base 8. Support legs 16 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the reactor 1. The support legs 16 are used to support and fix the reactor 1, improving the stability of the reactor 1 during operation.

[0027] Working Principle: The transfer pump 4, pressure transmitter 701, and humidity transmitter 702 in this application are all commonly used devices for monitoring the moisture content of lubricating grease. These are all existing publicly available technologies, and their specific structures and working principles are common knowledge to those skilled in the art. Their combined application and parameter optimization are conventional techniques in this field and will not be described in detail here. Opening valve 3 on conduit 2 allows the material in reactor 1 to be transferred to distributor 6 via transfer pump 4 and transfer pipe 5, and finally distributed into the reactor via distributor 6. The advantage of this design is that it replaces the traditional circulation port with a distribution port. The discharge of material from device 6 increases the contact area between the material and air during the process from the circulation port to the liquid surface in the reactor, thus improving the degassing efficiency. Then, the pressure transmitter 701 detects the real-time pressure inside reactor 1, and the humidity transmitter 702 monitors the humidity inside reactor 1 in real time. The external industrial control computer system (PLC controller) connected to reactor 1 automatically adjusts the pumping rate of the external vacuum system. Moisture monitoring is performed without opening the reactor lid, ensuring personnel safety, isolating the material from contact with the atmosphere during the process, ensuring product quality, and reducing safety risks.
