Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat exchanger cleaning technology, and in particular to a heat exchanger with cleaning function. Background Technology
[0002] A heat exchanger is a device that enables the transfer of heat between two or more fluids. Its applications range from small-scale applications like radiators and air conditioner outdoor units to large-scale applications like car engine cooling, power plant boilers, and chemical production. Essentially, heat exchangers are used to move heat and achieve the goals of heating, cooling, and energy saving. Household radiators are a typical example of heat exchangers that use air as the cold fluid and hot water or steam as the hot fluid. During long-term operation, impurities in the fluid will gradually adhere to the heat exchanger wall surface, forming a fouling layer. To avoid this, heat exchangers need to have a cleaning function.
[0003] Chinese patent discloses a heat exchanger that facilitates self-cleaning (publication number CN212030323 U). This patented technology uses a water pump to deliver cleaning fluid into the radiator through a three-way pipe fixedly connected to one end of a third connecting pipe. The cleaning fluid reacts chemically with impurities attached to the water pipes inside the radiator, causing the impurities to fall off the inner wall of the water pipes. The operator then opens the water valve to inject water into the radiator and opens the spherical water gate to allow the fallen impurities to flow out of the radiator. However, it lacks a filtration mechanism. After the cleaning fluid removes the impurities, the impurities remain in particulate form, such as scale fragments and rust residue, suspended in the fluid. These particles tend to accumulate in narrow channels, such as the spherical water gate valve core, leading to pipe blockage. Utility Model Content

[0015] Beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. This design provides a heat exchanger with a cleaning function. A filter box is installed at one end of the third water pipe. From left to right, a coarse filter screen and multiple strong magnetic rings are installed in the filter box. The coarse filter screen can directly block scale fragments and large pieces of rust slag with a diameter larger than the pore size, preventing them from flowing downstream to the spherical sluice valve core.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a heat exchanger with a cleaning function: including a radiator 9, a second water pipe 8 and a third water pipe 10 connected from top to bottom on the right side of the radiator 9, a first valve 5 connected to the front end of the second water pipe 8, a three-way pipe 6 connected to the outside of the second water pipe 8 on the back side of the first valve 5, and a cleaning mechanism provided at the top end of the three-way pipe 6.
[0024] The front end of the third water pipe 10 is connected to a filter box 12. The right side of the filter box 12 is connected to a fourth water pipe 14. The outside of the fourth water pipe 14 is connected to a third valve 15. The top of the filter box 12 has a first through hole 20 and a second through hole 25 from left to right. The first filter mechanism and the second filter mechanism are respectively installed inside the first through hole 20 and the second through hole 25. The top of the first filter mechanism and the second filter mechanism are respectively fixedly connected to a first sealing plate 11 and a second sealing plate 13.
[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first filtration mechanism includes a first frame 18, the top of the first frame 18 is fixedly connected to the first sealing plate 11, and a coarse filter screen 17 is connected inside the first frame 18. The coarse filter screen 17 can directly block scale fragments and large pieces of rust slag with a diameter larger than the pore size, preventing them from flowing downstream to the spherical water gate valve core with the fluid.
[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the cross-section of the coarse filter 17 is set to a corrugated shape, which helps to increase the contact area with impurities in the water and improve the impurity interception efficiency.
[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the second filtration mechanism includes a second frame 24, the top of which is fixedly connected to the second sealing plate 13. Several strong magnetic rings 23 are connected inside the second frame 24. The multiple strong magnetic rings 23 can form a continuous magnetic field, which is beneficial for adsorbing iron-containing impurities, such as rust slag, and preventing iron filings from entering the spherical water gate valve core.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the cleaning mechanism includes a water pump 2, with first water pipes 4 connected to both the left and right sides of the water pump 2. One end of the right first water pipe 4 is connected to a cleaning liquid tank 3, and a water inlet 1 is opened on the top of the cleaning liquid tank 3. One end of the left first water pipe 4 is fixedly connected to a three-way pipe 6. A second valve 7 is connected to the outside of the left first water pipe 4 near the three-way pipe 6. First, the first valve 5 is closed, and then the second valve 7 is opened. At the same time, the water pump 2 is turned on, so that the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid tank 3 can be introduced into the radiator 9. The cleaning liquid will produce a chemical reaction when it comes into contact with the impurities attached to the water pipe inside the radiator 9, thereby causing the impurities to fall off from the inner wall of the water pipe.
[0029] like Figure 2As shown, the first sealing plate 11 and the second sealing plate 13 are respectively connected by a first bolt connection pair 16 and a second bolt connection pair 27 through their front and rear sides. The first fixing ear 21 and the second fixing ear 22 are respectively fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the filter box 12 near the first through hole 20 and the second through hole 25. The first sealing plate 11 and the second sealing plate 13 are fixedly connected to the first fixing ear 21 and the second fixing ear 22 through the first bolt connection pair 16 and the second bolt connection pair 27, respectively. When it is necessary to clean the coarse filter screen 17 and the multiple strong magnetic rings 23, the first frame 18 and the second frame 24 that fix the coarse filter screen 17 and the multiple strong magnetic rings 23 can be easily removed by rotating the first bolt connection pair 16 and the second bolt connection pair 27, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the coarse filter screen 17 and the multiple strong magnetic rings 23.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the top of the filter box 12 is connected to the first sealing strip 19 and the second sealing strip 26 above the first through hole 20 and the second through hole 25, which helps to increase the sealing effect between the first sealing plate 11, the second sealing plate 13 and the filter box 12.
[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: By setting a coarse filter screen 17 and multiple strong magnetic rings 23 from left to right in the filter box 12, the coarse filter screen 17 can directly block scale fragments and large pieces of rust slag with a diameter larger than the pore size, preventing them from flowing downstream to the spherical sluice valve core. Secondly, the multiple strong magnetic rings 23 can form a continuous magnetic field, which is conducive to adsorbing iron-containing impurities, such as rust slag, and preventing iron filings from entering the spherical sluice valve core. Through the double interception of adsorption by the coarse filter screen 17 and the strong magnetic rings 23, it is beneficial to control the fallen impurities in the filter box 12, avoiding blockage of valves or subsequent pipelines. When it is necessary to clean the coarse filter screen 17 and the multiple strong magnetic rings 23, the first bolt connecting part 16 and the second bolt connecting part 27 can be rotated to easily remove the first frame 18 and the second frame 24 that fix the coarse filter screen 17 and the multiple strong magnetic rings 23, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the coarse filter screen 17 and the multiple strong magnetic rings 23.
[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model are implemented according to conventional methods in the art, unless otherwise specified or limited.
