Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning technology for liquid coolers, specifically to a cleaning device for liquid coolers. Background Technology

[0002] The desulfurization liquid cooler for coke oven gas in coking plants uses sulfur foam from the top of the regeneration tower to flow into the sulfur foam tank by gravity. The foam is then pumped to the sulfur melting kettle for heating and melting. The liquid flows into the clear liquid tank, is cooled by the clear liquid cooler, and then sent to the reaction tank. The working principle is that the plate heat exchanger introduces two fluids into different sides of the plate group, allowing the two fluids to flow relative to each other through the plate group, thus achieving heat transfer.

[0003] After a period of operation, impurities in the liquid cooler can easily clog it, reducing the heat exchange area and decreasing the cooling effect. The internal channels of the cooler are also prone to fouling (such as scale, oil, and organic matter buildup) due to the deposition of impurities and temperature changes. If not cleaned promptly, this can lead to decreased heat exchange efficiency (fouling thermal resistance can reduce efficiency by 20%-40%), increased energy consumption (15%-25%), and in severe cases, pipe blockage, localized overheating, and other malfunctions, causing the desulfurization liquid temperature to rise and affecting desulfurization efficiency. Therefore, we propose a cleaning device for the liquid cooler. Utility Model Content

The steam generator 1 is connected to the steam cleaning shovel 11 via the steam pipe 2, the hose 3 and the telescopic pipe 9, and the steam cleaning shovel 11 is connected to the operating rod 5 via the telescopic pipe 9. The steam cleaning shovel 11 enters the cold phase section through the hand hole of the liquid cooler, and steam is introduced into the cold phase to melt the sulfur in the flow channel and make it flow out. After the sulfur flows out cools and clumps, it is easy to remove, thus achieving the cleaning purpose of the liquid cooler. The operation is simple and the effect is obvious.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-2 A cleaning device for a liquid cooler includes: an arc-shaped convex plate 12 fixed to the outer wall of the end of the steam cleaning shovel 11 away from the telescopic pipe 9; a partition 13 placed at the opening of the steam cleaning shovel 11 near the convex plate 12; steam holes 14 opened on the outer wall of the partition 13; the steam holes 14 are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the partition 13; the steam cleaning shovel 11 and the partition 13 are connected through the steam holes 14; the partition 13 releases steam through the steam holes 14 for cleaning; and the partition 13 can reduce the amount of sulfur entering the steam cleaning shovel 11 when the convex plate 12 collects the removed sulfur; mounting holes 15 are opened on both sides of the outer wall of the partition 13 and the steam cleaning shovel 11; the partition 13 is threadedly connected to the steam cleaning shovel 11 through the mounting holes 15; the mounting holes 15 facilitate the disassembly and maintenance of the partition 13 by the operator; and the steam cleaning shovel 11 is easy to clean after the partition 13 is removed.

[0027] Working principle: For this type of cleaning device for liquid coolers, when the device is in operation, the steam cleaning shovel 11 is first inserted into the cold side of the liquid cooler through the pre-welded handhole. The steam generator 1 is then started, and steam flows sequentially through the steam pipe 2, the hose 3, and the telescopic pipe 9, finally spraying out from the steam hole 14 on the baffle 13 at the front end of the steam cleaning shovel 11. This directly heats the cooler plates, causing the solid sulfur adhering to the flow channels to melt, liquefy, and flow out. At the same time, the operator holds the handle 7 on the operating rod 5 and can activate the electric telescopic rod 8. The telescopic end of the device is driven by the pipe clamp 10 to reciprocate the telescopic pipe 9 and the steam cleaning shovel 11 to scrape and clean stubborn deposits in a wider area. The protruding plate 12 at the front end of the steam cleaning shovel 11 can assist in scraping and collecting residues during this process. To stabilize the device, the fixing bracket 17 on the rod seat 6 can be rotated out of the groove 16 through the rotating shaft, and the entire device can be temporarily fixed to the external support point using its connecting hole 18. After the molten sulfur flows out and cools into blocks, it can be scraped out through the hand hole to complete the cleaning. Its advantages are flexible operation, thorough cleaning and high degree of automation.
