Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooling equipment technology, and in particular to a vertical air cooling device. Background Technology

[0002] Air cooling equipment generally uses air as the cooling medium to cool liquid materials. It typically includes a shell and heat exchange tubes inside the shell. The shell also has inlet and outlet ducts connected to it to allow air to enter and exit. When air enters the shell, it comes into contact with the heat exchange tubes, achieving heat exchange with the material. Ultimately, the air temperature rises while the material temperature decreases, achieving the cooling purpose. In practice, however, the air is usually drawn in through a single outlet duct. This causes more air to accumulate at the outlet after entering the shell, resulting in slower airflow in some areas inside the shell, lower heat exchange efficiency, and ultimately, poor cooling performance. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a vertical air cooling device that solves the problem that a single air outlet pipe may cause air to accumulate in one location, resulting in slow airflow in some areas of the housing and ultimately poor cooling performance.

[0004] According to an embodiment, a vertical air cooling device is provided, comprising a vertically arranged shell. An upper mounting plate and a lower mounting plate are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the shell, dividing the shell into a first chamber, a second chamber, and a third chamber from top to bottom. Multiple heat exchange tubes are disposed in the second chamber, with their ends respectively communicating with the first and third chambers. An inlet pipe, an air inlet pipe, and a discharge pipe are also fixedly connected to the shell, communicating with the first, second, and third chambers respectively. Multiple outlet pipes are also provided at the upper end of the shell, connecting the second chamber to the outside of the shell. This solution provides multiple outlet pipes at the upper end of the shell for air outlet, guiding the air to flow more evenly upwards within the shell and dispersing it to each outlet pipe. This ensures even airflow in most areas within the shell, solving the problem in the prior art where a single outlet pipe may cause air to accumulate in one location, resulting in slower airflow in some areas and ultimately poor cooling performance.

[0005] Furthermore, one end of the air outlet duct is fixedly connected to the upper mounting plate, and the other end extends upward and is fixedly passed through the top surface of the housing.

[0006] Furthermore, a cover plate is fixedly installed at the upper end of the housing to cover all the air outlet ducts.

[0007] Furthermore, the cover plate includes a top plate with both ends facing upwards and the middle recessed, and side plates fixed to both sides of the top plate, the side plates being fixedly connected to the housing.

[0008] Furthermore, the two ends of the top plate bend downwards into an arc shape.

[0009] Furthermore, a connecting column is fixedly connected between the top plate and the shell.

[0010] Furthermore, the lower end of the shell has a bucket-shaped structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and the discharge pipe is connected to the lowest point of the bucket-shaped structure.

[0011] Furthermore, the heat exchange tube includes a spiral tube section and an upper connecting pipe and a lower connecting pipe that are fixedly connected to both ends of the spiral tube section, respectively. The upper connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the upper mounting plate, and the lower connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the lower mounting plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the air inlet duct is located at the lower end of the casing.

[0013] Furthermore, the housing is also equipped with an access door located between the upper mounting plate and the lower mounting plate.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: By setting multiple air outlets at the upper end of the housing to guide the air, the air flows upward more evenly inside the housing and is distributed to each air outlet. This ensures that the airflow is even in most parts of the housing, solving the problem that in the prior art, a single air outlet may cause air to gather in one place, resulting in slower airflow in some parts of the housing and ultimately poor cooling effect. Attached Figure Description

[0015] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of an embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 Enlarged schematic diagram of a local structure at point A; In the above attached figures: Shell 1, First chamber 3, Second chamber 4, Third chamber 5, Upper mounting plate 6, Lower mounting plate 7, Inspection door 8, Spiral pipe section 9, Upper connecting pipe 10, Lower connecting pipe 11, Feed pipe 12, Air inlet pipe 13, Discharge pipe 14, Air outlet pipe 15, Top plate 16, Side plate 17, Connecting column 18. Detailed Implementation

[0016] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0017] like Figure 1 , 2As shown, this embodiment provides a vertical air cooling device, which includes a vertically arranged shell 1. An upper mounting plate 62 and a lower mounting plate 7 are fixedly connected inside the shell 1, dividing it into a first chamber 3, a second chamber 4, and a third chamber 5 arranged vertically. Multiple heat exchange tubes are disposed in the second chamber 4, with both ends communicating with the first chamber 3 and the third chamber 5 respectively. Further, each heat exchange tube includes a spiral tube section 9 and an upper connecting pipe 10 and a lower connecting pipe 11 fixedly connected to both ends of the spiral tube section 9. The upper connecting pipe 10 and the lower connecting pipe 11 are fixedly connected to the upper mounting plate 62 and the lower mounting plate 7 respectively. An inlet pipe 12, an air inlet pipe 13, and an outlet pipe 14, respectively communicating with the first chamber 3, the second chamber 4, and the third chamber 5, are also fixedly connected to the shell 1. During operation, compared with the prior art… Similarly, air is introduced through the air inlet pipe 13 (e.g., by a fan). Unlike the prior art, in this solution, the air inlet pipe 13 can be located at the lower end of the housing 1 where it connects with the lower mounting plate 7. After entering, the air first contacts the lower end of the heat exchange tube. Furthermore, in this solution, the upper end of the housing 1 is also provided with multiple air outlet pipes 15 that connect the inside of the second chamber 4 to the outside of the housing 1. These air outlet pipes 15 provide air outlets at more locations, which can guide the air to flow upward more evenly within the housing 1 and disperse it to each air outlet pipe 15. This ensures that the airflow in each location within the housing 1 is balanced, solving the problem in the prior art where a single air outlet pipe 15 may cause air to accumulate in one location, resulting in a slower airflow speed in some locations within the housing 1 and ultimately leading to poor cooling performance.

[0018] In a further embodiment, one end of the air outlet duct 15 is fixedly connected to the upper mounting plate 62, and the other end extends upward and is fixedly passed through the top surface of the housing 1. That is, the air outlet duct 15 is located on the top surface of the second chamber 4 and passes through the top surface of the first chamber 3 and the housing 1. This guides the air to flow upward and disperse within the housing 1, making it more evenly contacted with each heat exchange tube. At the same time, the air outlet duct 15 also enhances the connection strength of the upper mounting plate 62.

[0019] In actual operation, the material enters the first chamber 3 through the feed pipe 12, then enters each heat exchange tube through the upper connecting pipe 10 and flows downward. During the process, it indirectly exchanges heat with the air through the heat exchange tubes, and then enters the third chamber 5 and is finally discharged through the discharge pipe 14.

[0020] In this design, the top surface of the housing 1 can be flat, and the air outlet pipes 15 can be evenly arranged on the top surface of the housing 1. A cover plate is also provided on the top surface to prevent impurities from falling directly into each air outlet pipe 15. Specifically, the cover plate includes a top plate 16 with both ends facing upward and the middle recessed, and side plates 17 fixed to both sides of the top plate 16. The side plates 17 are fixedly connected to the housing 1. After the air outlet pipes 15 exhaust air, they can flow more smoothly outward along the arc structure of the top plate 16. At the same time, the top plate 16 and the side plates 17 completely cover the air outlet pipes 15 to prevent impurities from falling in. Furthermore, the two ends of the top plate 16 are curved downwards into an arc shape. The downward curve at the ends of the top plate 16 can also prevent impurities (especially liquids, such as rainwater) from falling obliquely downwards along the arc structure at both ends of the top plate 16 onto the top surface of the housing 1. Furthermore, the upper end of the air outlet pipe 15 can extend beyond the top surface of the housing 1, just above the top plate 16, which can better prevent impurities from entering the air outlet pipe 15. In more detail, a connecting column 18 is also fixedly connected between the top plate 16 and the housing 1 to strengthen the connection strength of the cover plate.

[0021] In a further design, the lower end of the casing 1 has a bucket-shaped structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and the discharge pipe is connected to the lowest point of the bucket-shaped structure, so that the material can be gathered at the lower end and discharged more smoothly. To facilitate the maintenance of the internal structure, a maintenance door 8 is also provided on the casing 1 between the upper mounting plate 62 and the lower mounting plate 7.

[0022] 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 preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
