Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooling tower technology, and in particular, to a high-level water collection tank for a cooling tower. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, to reduce pump head and noise from circulating water falling to the bottom of the tower, most cooling towers use elevated water collection systems. During operation, the water tank at the bottom of the tower is raised to a certain height, and multiple strip-shaped water collection troughs replace the original tank. These troughs collect water that flows through the packing material from the middle of the cooling tower, and the collected cooling water flows out of the tower from one side. In actual use, the water collection troughs are not designed as a single long trough structure; they are usually composed of multiple trough bodies spliced ​​together. This is done to improve adaptability, allowing users to adapt multiple trough bodies to the width of the tower to form a collection trough of a specific length to meet installation requirements.

[0003] The cross-section of the sink body is generally U-shaped, with outward-extending flanges on both sides forming connecting flanges. Each adjacent sink body is connected via these flanges. To improve sealing, a gasket is typically installed between the flanges. This gasket is a single-piece ring structure, which has two drawbacks: First, its monolithic construction increases material usage and cost; second, while the flanges are secured with bolts, the bolts must pass through the through-holes in the gasket. However, since the gasket is a single-piece molding while the sink body is typically hand-laid up, the positions of the through-holes on the gasket may not perfectly match the bolt holes on the sink body, causing installation difficulties. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: in order to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, a high-level water collection tank for cooling towers that is low in cost and easy to install is provided.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a high-level water collection cooling tower water collection tank, including multiple water tank bodies spliced ​​in sequence. The water tank body has a U-shaped tank structure. The two ends of the water tank body extend outward to form flanges. An elastic sealing strip is sandwiched between the flanges of two adjacent water tank bodies. The elastic sealing strip is set along the outer contour of the flange. The two flanges are fixedly connected by multiple locking bolts. An elastic support sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the locking bolts. The elastic support sleeve is squeezed between the two flanges.

[0006] Furthermore, the flanges are perpendicular to the length of the water tank, and the opposing surfaces of the two flanges are both planes and parallel to each other.

[0007] Furthermore, the elastic sealing strip is a U-shaped structure that matches the profile of the flange, and the two opposite side walls of the elastic sealing strip are tightly fitted to the two opposite surfaces of the flange.

[0008] Furthermore, the thickness of the elastic sealing strip is H1, and the wall thickness of the water tank body is H2, where H1 > H2.

[0009] Furthermore, the elastic sealing strip is a foam sealing strip.

[0010] Furthermore, one side of the elastic sealing strip is bonded and fixed to one of the flanges.

[0011] Furthermore, the elastic support sleeve is made of rubber material.

[0012] Furthermore, multiple locking bolts are arranged sequentially along the contour of the flange.

[0013] Furthermore, a locking nut is installed on the outside of the locking bolt after it passes through two flanges.

[0014] Furthermore, gaskets are installed between the flange and the head of the locking bolt, as well as between the flange and the locking nut.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Compared with the traditional method of setting a whole sealing gasket between two flanges, the water collection tank of this utility model saves materials, reduces production costs, and ensures sealing performance. At the same time, when installing the locking bolts, the user can put the corresponding elastic support sleeves on the outside of the locking bolts to provide support, without having to consider the alignment problem between the locking bolts and the through holes on the traditional sealing gaskets, which facilitates the installation operation.

[0021] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-3 This utility model provides a high-level water collection cooling tower water collection tank, including multiple water tank bodies 10 spliced ​​in sequence. The water tank body 10 has a U-shaped tank structure. Both ends of the water tank body 10 extend outward to form flanges 11. The flanges 11 are set along the outer contour of the water tank body 10 and also have a U-shaped structure. An elastic sealing strip 20 is sandwiched between the flanges 11 between two adjacent water tank bodies 10. The elastic sealing strip 20 is set along the outer contour of the flange 11. The two flanges 11 are fixedly connected by multiple locking bolts 30. An elastic support sleeve 40 is sleeved on the outside of the locking bolts 30 and is pressed between the two flanges 11.

[0023] During assembly of the high-level water collection cooling tower water tank of this utility model, the two tank bodies 10 are first brought close together, and the two flanges 11 are aligned. Then, the elastic sealing strip 20 is placed between the two flanges 11. Subsequently, the tail of the locking bolt 30 passes through the two flanges 11 in sequence. Before this, the elastic support sleeve 40 is placed on the outside of each locking bolt 30. When the locking bolt 30 is tightened, the elastic support sleeve 40 and the elastic sealing strip 20 are both squeezed and deformed between the two flanges 11. The elastic sealing strip 20 is used to seal the gap at the joint of the two flanges 11, and the elastic support sleeve 40 is used to support the side of the flange 11 away from the elastic sealing strip 20, so as to ensure that the elastic sealing strip 20 is effectively squeezed and to prevent the elastic sealing strip 20 from not being fully squeezed, thus affecting the sealing effect. Compared to the traditional method of setting a single sealing gasket between two flanges 11, the space between the two flanges 11 in this invention is not completely filled by the sealing gasket, which saves materials, reduces production costs, and ensures sealing performance. At the same time, when installing the locking bolts 30, the user can fit each elastic support sleeve 40 on the outside of the locking bolts 30 to provide support, without having to consider the alignment problem between the locking bolts 30 and the through holes on the traditional sealing gasket, which facilitates installation.

[0024] In this embodiment, the water tank body 10 has a long trough-shaped structure, and the length direction of the water tank body 10 is the flow direction of the cooling water within the water tank body 10. The length of the water tank body 10 is significantly greater than its width and height. The flange 11 is perpendicular to the length direction of the water tank body 10. Furthermore, the opposing surfaces of the two flanges 11 are both planar structures and are parallel to each other.

[0025] The elastic sealing strip 20 is a U-shaped structure that matches the contour of the flange 11. The longitudinal section of the elastic sealing strip 20 is a rectangular structure so that the opposite side walls of the elastic sealing strip 20 can fit tightly with the two opposite surfaces of the flange 11.

[0026] Furthermore, the thickness of the elastic sealing strip 20 is H1, and the wall thickness of the water tank body 10 is H2, wherein H1 > H2, so as to ensure that there is a sufficiently large contact area between the elastic sealing strip 20 and the flange 11, thereby improving the sealing performance between the elastic sealing strip 20 and the flange 11.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment, the elastic sealing strip 20 is a foam sealing strip, which has excellent sealing performance and can effectively prevent moisture penetration.

[0028] In addition, an adhesive layer (not shown) is provided on one side of the elastic sealing strip 20. The elastic sealing strip 20 is bonded to one of the flanges 11 through this adhesive layer, which can be an adhesive layer. During assembly, the user can first bond the elastic sealing strip 20 to one of the flanges 11, and then press the elastic sealing strip 20 through the other flange 11. This method of connecting the elastic sealing strip 20 to one of the flanges 11 achieves a pre-fixing effect on the elastic sealing strip 20, which facilitates the user's assembly operation.

[0029] The elastic support sleeve 40 is a cylindrical structure with two through ends. The two end faces of the elastic support sleeve 40 are parallel planes and fit snugly against the flange 11 to ensure tight contact between the elastic support sleeve 40 and the flange 11. During installation, the tail of the locking bolt 30 first passes through one flange 11, then the elastic support sleeve 40 is fitted onto the locking bolt 30, and finally the other flange 11 is used to press the elastic support sleeve 40 tightly. In this embodiment, the elastic support sleeve 40 is made of rubber.

[0030] Multiple locking bolts 30 are arranged sequentially along the contour of flange 11, which on the one hand ensures the connection strength between the two flanges 11, and on the other hand improves the sealing performance between flanges 11.

[0031] In this embodiment, the tail of the locking bolt 30 passes through the two flanges 11 and is fitted with a locking nut 50. By tightening the locking nut 50, the two flanges 11 press against the elastic sealing strip 20 and the elastic support sleeve 40. To increase the preload and prevent loosening, gaskets 60 are installed between the flanges 11 and the head of the locking bolt 30, and between the flanges 11 and the locking nut 50. The gaskets 60 include, but are not limited to, flat gaskets and spring gaskets.

[0032] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the scope of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
