Detailed Implementation
[0017] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0018] The first embodiment of this application is as follows:
[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 3 ,in Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a portable vapor condensate sampler. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the sampling quick-connect connector. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the refrigeration device. This utility model provides a portable vapor condensate sampler: including a sampling quick-connect connector 1, a sampling hose 3, a refrigeration device 5, a vapor condensate outlet platform 6, a high-temperature water pump 7, a storage battery 8, a charger 9, a stainless steel casing 10, and movable casters 11. The sampling quick-connect connector 1 is equipped with a control valve 2. The sampling hose 3 is covered with a 304 stainless steel braided mesh 4. The refrigeration device 5 includes a compressor 51, a condenser 52, a throttling valve 53, and an evaporator 54, which are connected sequentially through pipes to form a closed system. The condenser 52 is equipped with a fan 55 for heat dissipation. The stainless steel casing 10 is equipped with a U-shaped handle 12. The aforementioned solution addresses the problems of existing devices that typically rely on external cooling water sources for steam condensation. These devices not only require frequent replacement of circulating water but also have large size, are difficult to move, and are unsuitable for sampling requirements under different operating conditions. Furthermore, their condensation efficiency is low, failing to quickly convert high-temperature steam into low-temperature liquid samples, thus affecting sampling accuracy and efficiency. Understandably, the aforementioned solution can solve the problems of inconvenient steam sample collection, low condensation efficiency, and poor portability, achieving efficient and convenient steam condensate sampling. It can also facilitate short-distance transport of the device.
[0020] In this specific embodiment, the sampling quick-connect connector 1 is connected to the input end of the refrigeration device 5 via the sampling hose 3. The output end of the refrigeration device 5 is located corresponding to the steam condensate outlet platform 6. The high-temperature resistant water pump 7 is connected in series in the pipeline between the sampling hose 3 and the refrigeration device 5. The storage battery 8 is electrically connected to both the refrigeration device 5 and the high-temperature resistant water pump 7. The charger 9 is electrically connected to the storage battery 8. The sampling quick-connect connector 1, the sampling hose 3, the refrigeration device 5, the high-temperature resistant water pump 7, the storage battery 8, and the charger 9 are all enclosed within the stainless steel housing 10. The movable caster 11 is installed at the bottom of the stainless steel housing 10. The control valve 2 is rotatably connected to the sampling quick-connect connector 1 and is located on one side of the sampling block connector. The 304 stainless steel braided mesh 4 is provided on the outer surface of the sampling hose 3. The sampling quick-connect connector 1 is equipped with the control valve 2. In use, it can be quickly connected through the steam pipe of the sampling quick-connect connector 1. The amount of steam entering can be adjusted by rotating the control valve 2. The sampling hose 3 is wrapped with 304 stainless steel braided mesh 4. One end of the sampling hose 3 is connected to the sampling quick-connect connector 1, and the other end is connected to the input end of the evaporator 54 of the refrigeration device 5 through the high-temperature water pump 7. The high-temperature water pump 7 can assist the flow of steam in the sampling hose 3 and avoid the retention of high-temperature steam.
[0021] The condenser 52 is equipped with a fan 55 for heat dissipation. The input end of the evaporator 54 is connected to the sampling hose 3, and the output end is set corresponding to the steam condensate outlet platform 6. The core of the refrigeration device 5 is a closed-loop system: R410A refrigerant absorbs heat from the steam in the evaporator 54 and vaporizes into low-temperature, low-pressure steam; the compressor 51 compresses it into high-pressure, high-temperature steam and discharges it into the condenser 52; the fan 55 on the condenser 52 quickly dissipates heat, causing the refrigerant to condense into high-pressure liquid; the high-pressure liquid is throttled into low-pressure, low-temperature refrigerant by the throttling valve 53 and re-enters the evaporator 54 to complete the cycle. This process can quickly condense steam into liquid water.
[0022] Secondly, the steam condensate outlet platform 6 is located directly below the output end of the evaporator 54. The anti-slip texture on the surface of the steam condensate outlet platform 6 can prevent the sampling bottle from tipping over, and the condensed water can drip directly into the sampling bottle without the need for an additional flow guiding structure.
[0023] Meanwhile, the storage battery 8 is installed inside the stainless steel casing 10, providing power to the cooling device 5 (the compressor 51 and the fan 55) and the high-temperature water pump 7. The charger 9 can be connected to an external mains power source to charge the storage battery 8, meeting the usage needs of outdoor scenarios without power.
[0024] In addition, the stainless steel outer shell 10 is made of 304 stainless steel, which has high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance. The movable pulley 11 at the bottom is a universal wheel with locking function, which can turn flexibly when pushing the device. When sampling, locking the pulley can fix the position. The U-shaped handle 12 is provided on the top of the stainless steel outer shell 10. The U-shaped handle 12 provides the operator with a force point, making it easy to move the device over short distances.
[0025] When using the portable steam condensate sampler of this embodiment, first fully charge the storage battery 8 using the charger 9, push the device next to the steam pipe and lock the movable slide, connect the sampling quick-connect connector 1 to the steam pipe, place the sampling bottle on the steam condensate outlet platform 6, turn on the control valve 2 and the switch of the storage battery 8, start the high-temperature water pump 7 and the refrigeration device 5, the steam enters the evaporator 54 through the sampling hose 3, is quickly condensed into water by the refrigerant, and drips into the sampling bottle. After sampling is completed, turn off the control valve 2 and the power supply, and disassemble the sampling quick-connect connector 1. The sampling is convenient, the condensation efficiency is high, and efficient and convenient steam condensate sampling is achieved.
[0026] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely one or more preferred embodiments of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes for implementing the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of this application still fall within the scope of this application.
