Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a mounting bracket, and more particularly to a bracket assembly for mounting a flushing nozzle of a dehumidification pipe. Background Technology

[0002] The dehumidification pipe of the tobacco drying machine is a key component of the tobacco drying process. During the drying process, high-temperature hot air passes through the tobacco layer, carrying away a large amount of moisture and volatile substances (such as some aroma components, ammonia, tar, etc.). The dehumidification pipe is the channel that efficiently discharges this high-temperature, high-humidity exhaust gas containing soot and volatiles from the drying drum.

[0003] Because the exhaust gas includes high-temperature saturated humid air, when it encounters the cooler pipe walls (especially when the pipe insulation is poor, the ambient temperature is low, or the pipeline is used for long-distance transport), the water vapor will condense into liquid water. This condensate adheres to the pipe walls and is contaminated with dust, tar, sugar, and other substances from the exhaust gas, which then condense into a mud-like dirt on the pipe walls.

[0004] Our current standard practice is to open a hole in the wall of the drying machine's exhaust pipe, then insert a high-pressure cleaning nozzle into the pipe through the hole, and weld the nozzle to the pipe at the hole to seal it. This allows the nozzle to spray high-speed water to flush the inner wall of the pipe, thus cleaning up the scale buildup inside the exhaust pipe and ensuring its airtightness.

[0005] However, the above approach still has the following drawbacks:

[0006] 1) The nozzle is welded to the pipe wall. Once the welding is completed, the angle of the cleaning water spray from the nozzle in the drainage pipe is fixed and cannot be adjusted. At the same time, its position cannot be fine-tuned and disassembly is difficult. If the position needs to be changed, more installation holes need to be drilled in the drainage pipe.

[0007] 2) During the welding process, the high temperature may damage the threaded structure of the external pipe of the nozzle. As a result, once the welding is completed, the nozzle cannot be removed from the connecting rod for replacement or repair and the entire nozzle needs to be replaced. In addition, it is very easy for water to drip from the damaged threaded area.

[0008] 3) The welding effect between the nozzle and the dehumidification pipe cannot be guaranteed or verified, which can easily lead to malfunctions such as air leakage in the dehumidification pipe, posing a production safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0009] This utility model provides a bracket assembly for installing a flushing nozzle on a dehumidification pipe. The flushing nozzle can be movably and adjustably installed on the dehumidification pipe to facilitate adjustment of the nozzle orientation. A sealing element is also provided at the insertion and installation position of the nozzle on the pipe to prevent air leakage. The assembly is easy to install and disassemble, thus solving the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0010] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above problems is: providing a bracket assembly for installing a flushing nozzle in a dehumidification pipe, including a pipe clamp and a sealing element. The pipe clamp is fixedly sleeved on the pipe, and a first through hole is opened on the pipe clamp. A second through hole is also opened on the pipe. The diameter of the first through hole and the second through hole is larger than the diameter of the nozzle. The sealing element is set on the nozzle. The nozzle extends into the pipe by passing through the first through hole and the second through hole, and the nozzle adjusts its orientation position by moving within the two through holes. The sealing element is used to seal the second through hole.

[0011] Furthermore, the sealing element includes a first sealing part and a second sealing part. The first sealing part is configured as a sealing sleeve, and the second sealing part is integrally disposed at one end of the sealing sleeve. The second sealing part is configured as a sealing gasket, and the sealing element is disposed on the nozzle by means of the first sealing part in a sealing sleeve.

[0012] Furthermore, when the nozzle passes through the first through hole and the second through hole to extend into the pipe, the first sealing part is disposed through the first through hole, and the second sealing part is clamped between the pipe clamp and the pipe to cooperate with the first sealing part to seal the second through hole.

[0013] Furthermore, the first sealing part is configured as a funnel-shaped sealing sleeve, and the second sealing part is integrally disposed at one end of the relatively larger opening of the first sealing part.

[0014] Furthermore, it also includes a metal sealing clamp for securing the first sealing portion to the nozzle.

[0015] Furthermore, both the first through hole and the second through hole are configured as strip-shaped through holes extending along the axial direction of the pipe.

[0016] Furthermore, the pipe clamp includes a main plate and a clamping assembly. The main plate is configured as an arc-shaped panel that fits against the outer wall of the pipe. The clamping assembly includes a first clamp strip integrally connected to the edge of the main plate and a second clamp strip for fixing the main plate to the pipe by being fixedly connected to the first clamp strip.

[0017] Furthermore, the first clamp extends from the edge of the main board along the circumferential direction of the pipe, and the first clamp and the second clamp are detachably fixed to each other by a bolt and nut structure.

[0018] Furthermore, it also includes an adjustment component, which includes a limiting strip disposed on the pipe clamp and located on both sides of the first through hole, and a limiting nut threaded onto the nozzle. The gap width between the limiting strips on both sides is smaller than the outer diameter of the limiting nut. The limiting nut can be tightened to abut against the limiting strip, thereby cooperating with the sealing element to mutually limit and fix the nozzle, or it can be tightened to move away from the limiting strip to unlock the swing adjustment function of the nozzle.

[0019] Furthermore, the limiting strip is configured as an arc-shaped metal strip.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] 1. The nozzle can move within the first and second through holes, thereby adjusting its orientation and specific position relative to the pipe axis to achieve a better rinsing and cleaning effect.

[0022] 2. The nozzle can be fixedly inserted into the drainage pipe using pipe clamps and seals, and can be disassembled at any time.

[0023] 3. A sealing element is provided between the nozzle and the exhaust pipe. In addition to sealing the second through hole, the sealing element is also used to connect and limit the nozzle inserted into the second through hole to prevent air leakage from the pipe at the second through hole and to prevent the nozzle from falling out of the through hole.

[0024] 4. The adjustment component can cooperate with the sealing component to limit and lock the nozzle when it is adjusted to a specific orientation position, so as to prevent the nozzle from moving freely in the through hole and affecting its flushing effect on the pipeline; at the same time, technicians can still operate the adjustment component to unlock the nozzle's movement function and adjust the nozzle's orientation position.

They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of those features. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0039] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0040] The following will be based on Figures 1 to 5 The relevant technical solutions of this utility model will be described in more detail.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A bracket assembly for installing a flushing nozzle 3 in a dehumidification pipe according to a specific embodiment of this utility model includes a pipe clamp 1 and a sealing element 2. The pipe clamp 1 is fixedly sleeved on the pipe 4. A first through hole 11 is opened on the pipe clamp 1, and a corresponding second through hole 41 is opened on the pipe 4. The diameters of the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 41 are both larger than the diameter of the nozzle 3. The sealing element 2 is disposed on the nozzle 3. The nozzle 3 extends into the pipe 4 by passing through the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 41, and the nozzle 3 adjusts its orientation position by moving within the two through holes. The sealing element 2 is used to seal the second through hole 41.

[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the technician is fixing the clamp 1 onto the pipe 4, by making the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 41 face each other vertically, a part of the body of the sealing member 2 is clamped between the clamp 1 and the pipe 4, and another part of the body extends outward from the first through hole 11 and is sealed and tightened onto the nozzle 3. At the same time, the nozzle 3 also extends into the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 41 in sequence, pointing towards the inside of the pipe 4.

[0043] Thus, in some embodiments, technicians can replace the seals 2 with different shapes so that the nozzles 3 can have different orientations when inserted into the pipe 4, in order to meet the installation requirements of detachable installation and adjustable nozzle orientation.

[0044] In this embodiment, pipe 4 is the dehumidification pipe of the yarn drying machine. Figure 2 The image shown is only a section 4 of the drainage pipe.

[0045] Further, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4In this embodiment, the sealing element 2 includes a first sealing part 21 and a second sealing part 22. The first sealing part 21 is configured as a sealing sleeve, and the second sealing part 22 is integrally disposed at one end of the sealing sleeve. The second sealing part 22 is configured as a sealing gasket. The sealing element 2 is disposed on the nozzle 3 by sealing sleeve through the first sealing part 21.

[0046] Specifically, with Figure 4 Taking the indicated orientation as an example, in this embodiment, the seal 2 is entirely made of elastic rubber, the first sealing part 21 is also configured as an elastically expandable sealing sleeve structure, and the second sealing part 22 is integrally disposed at the lower end opening of the first sealing part 21. Therefore, when installing the nozzle 3 onto the bracket assembly of this embodiment, the technician can clamp the second sealing part 22 between the clamp 1 and the pipe 4, extend the first sealing part 21 from the first through hole 11, and fit the first sealing part 21 onto the nozzle 3. The nozzle 3 then inserts and passes through the first sealing part 21, the first through hole 11, and the second through hole 41 to extend into the pipe 4. Please also refer to... Figure 3 ,by Figure 3 Taking the shown orientation as an example, the first sealing part 21 is sleeved on the nozzle 3, and a metal sealing clamp 5 is also provided at the upper end of the first sealing part 21. Technicians can tighten the metal sealing clamp 5 to firmly fix the upper end of the first sealing part 21 on the nozzle 3 and seal the gap between the first sealing part 21 and the nozzle 3.

[0047] Therefore, when the nozzle 3 passes through the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 41 to extend into the pipe 4, the seal 2 can effectively seal the joint gap between the nozzle 3 and the pipe 4; moreover, since the first sealing part 21 is horn-shaped, technicians can also manually move the nozzle 3 to adjust and change the orientation of the nozzle 3 in real time when the nozzle 3 sprays water to rinse the inner wall of the pipe 4.

[0048] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, both the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 41 are configured as strip-shaped through holes extending along the axial direction of the pipe 4. The length of the second sealing part 22 is at least greater than the length of the first through hole 11, and the width of the pipe clamp 1 is at least the sum of the lengths of the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 41.

[0049] Thus, when installing the pipe clamp 1 and the nozzle 3 to their corresponding positions on the pipe 4, the technician can further adjust the orientation angle adjustment range of the nozzle 3 by creating a certain misalignment between the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 41, and adjust the specific position of the nozzle 3 on the pipe 4 by adjusting the specific position of the second sealing part 22. At the same time, when performing the aforementioned adjustment operations, the technician will not worry about the problem of air leakage holes and sealing failure caused by insufficient size of the second sealing part 22 or the pipe clamp 1 during the adjustment process.

[0050] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the pipe clamp 1 includes a main plate 12 and a clamping assembly 13. The main plate 12 is configured as an arc-shaped panel that fits against the outer wall of the pipe 4. The clamping assembly 13 includes the main plate 12, a first clamping strip 131, and a second clamping strip 132. Two first clamping strips 131 are provided on both sides of the main plate 12 along the circumferential direction, and two second clamping strips 132 are also provided. The first clamping strips 131 and the second clamping strips 132 are detachably and fixedly connected to each other by a bolt and nut structure.

[0051] In this embodiment, a technician can thread one second clamp 132 to one first clamp 131 on each side of the main board 12, and thread the other second clamp 132 to the remaining two first clamps 131 on the main board 12, so that the clamp 1 is fitted and fixed on the pipe 4 and can be removed at any time.

[0052] Further, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, an adjustment component 6 is also provided at the first through hole 11. The adjustment component 6 is used to limit and lock the orientation of the nozzle 3 or unlock the swing function of the nozzle 3.

[0053] For details, please refer to Figure 3 ,by Figure 3 Taking the indicated orientation as an example, in this embodiment, in order to make the angle adjustment function of the nozzle 3 more perfect and to ensure that the nozzle 3 does not change arbitrarily when it is adjusted to a specific angle position, this replaces the aforementioned technical solution of adjusting the orientation of the nozzle 3 by replacing the sealing element 2 with a different shape in some embodiments.

[0054] The adjustment assembly 6 includes two arc-shaped limiting strips 61 and a limiting nut 62 that can be threaded onto the end of the nozzle 3 that is connected to the water pipe. The limiting nut 62 is a wing nut, and the limiting nut 62 is threaded below the connection position between the water pipe and the nozzle 3. The outer diameter of the limiting nut 62 is larger than the distance between the two limiting strips 61. The two limiting strips 61 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first through hole 11.

[0055] Thus, with Figure 3 Taking the indicated orientation as an example, in practical applications, technicians can tighten the limiting nut 62, causing it to move upwards away from the pipe 4. This removes the limiting nut 62 from the limiting strip 61, allowing technicians to freely move the nozzle 3 to... Figure 3 The nozzle 3 is positioned at any permissible angle. Then, the limiting nut 62 is turned downwards. When the limiting nut 62 touches the limiting strip 61, the nozzle 3 is turned upwards. This stretches the first sealing part 21 to generate elasticity. The elasticity generated when the first sealing part 21 is stretched will, in turn, tighten the nozzle 3, causing the limiting nut 62 to press against the limiting strip 61. This creates a large contact friction resistance between the limiting nut 62 and the limiting strip 61, restricting the limiting nut 62 from continuing to move along the limiting strip 61, thereby locking the nozzle 3 so that it stops moving after being adjusted to the predetermined orientation position.

[0056] In this embodiment, the limiting strip 61 is made of stainless steel.

[0057] Anything not mentioned above applies to existing technologies.

[0058] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
