Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glove box technology, specifically to a three-in-one waste discharge device. Background Technology
[0002] During use, glove boxes generate waste liquid and waste gas that need to be collected and treated. Generally, the equipment generating waste liquid includes the glove box itself. Before use, it needs to be cleaned with inert gas (nitrogen / argon) to replace the air inside the box with anhydrous and oxygen-free inert gas. A purification system connected to the glove box is used to monitor and purify the environment inside the glove box, removing water and oxygen. The purification system contains water- and oxygen-absorbing materials. After the materials become saturated, they need to be regenerated. This process requires a mixture of hydrogen and inert gas. Water is generated during regeneration, and unreacted hydrogen and inert gas are also discharged. When using the glove box, a vacuum pump is used to evacuate the large and small transition chambers. The vacuum pump itself has an exhaust port, which discharges the extracted gas and carries away oil contaminants from the pump. Currently, the waste discharge of glove boxes is handled by connecting separate pipes of different diameters to the customer's on-site public drain, requiring numerous accessories and making installation inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a three-in-one waste discharge device, which only requires one external public discharge pipe, making it easy to install. At the same time, it can hold waste liquid and achieve timely waste discharge.

Detailed Implementation
[0031] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model discloses a three-in-one waste discharge device, comprising:
[0033] Tank 1, the top of the tank 1 has a top sealing plate 11, the top sealing plate 11 has an exhaust pipe 2, and the tank 1 is connected to a drain pipe 3;
[0034] The glove box waste discharge pipe 4 is set on the top sealing plate 11 and fixedly installed on the top sealing plate 11. It communicates with the inside of the tank 1 and is used to connect with the glove box 9 to receive the waste liquid and waste gas discharged from the glove box 9.
[0035] Vacuum pump exhaust pipe 5 is installed on the top sealing plate 11 and fixedly mounted on the top sealing plate 11. It communicates with the inside of the tank 1 and is used to connect to the vacuum pump 91 to receive the exhaust gas from the vacuum pump 91.
[0036] The waste discharge pipe 6 of the purification system is set on the top sealing plate 11 and fixedly installed on the top sealing plate 11. It is connected to the inside of the tank 1 and is used to connect to the purification system 92 to receive the waste liquid and waste gas discharged by the purification system 92.
[0037] The advantages of adopting the above technical solution are that it integrates the waste discharge of the glove box 9, the waste discharge of the vacuum pipeline and the waste discharge of the purification system 92, which facilitates client connection, is easy to install, and improves installation efficiency.
[0038] Furthermore, the tank body 1 is a cylindrical transparent tank, which can be made of acrylic material, which has good transparency, light weight, and low cost. It is equipped with a bottom sealing plate 12, a top sealing plate 11, a sealing ring 13 between the bottom sealing plate 12 and the tank body 1, and a sealing ring groove for accommodating the sealing ring 13. The sealing ring 13 is set in the sealing ring groove, which ensures the airtightness of the entire tank body 1 and prevents leakage.
[0039] The transparent container can be used to display the amount of liquid inside the container 1. When the container 1 is almost full, the waste liquid inside the container 1 can be discharged in time. At the same time, the sealing ring 13 ensures that the entire container 1 has good airtightness and prevents leakage.
[0040] Furthermore, multiple connecting posts 7 are provided between the top sealing plate 11 and the bottom sealing plate 12 to fix the bottom sealing plate 12 to the bottom sealing plate 12.

The filter element 8 is provided with a filter screen 84, and the filter element 8 is connected to the vacuum pump exhaust pipe 2.
[0047] The filter element 8 is set up for the filter screen 84. When the oil and gas in the mixed gas passes through the filter screen 84, they are collected on the filter screen 84, reducing the amount of oil and gas entering the exhaust pipe 2 and preventing oil stains from adhering in the exhaust pipe, which would be inconvenient to clean.
[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the filter element 8 includes an upper component 81 and a lower component 82. The upper component 81 has internal threads, and the lower component 82 has external threads. Both the upper component 81 and the lower component 82 are equipped with clamping plates 83, which clamp and fix the filter screen 84. The upper component 81 and the lower component 82 are connected by threads, and the clamping plates 83 on the upper component 81 and the lower component 82 clamp and fix the filter screen 84.
