Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of garment ironing technology, specifically a high-efficiency horizontal water vapor separator for garment ironing. Background Technology
[0002] Garment processing involves multiple steps, including material preparation, cutting, sewing, ironing, and quality inspection. Ironing, in particular, is primarily accomplished using an iron and steam. The steam output from the boiler contains a large amount of condensate. If this steam directly contacts the fabric, it will cause a sudden drop in temperature in the ironing area, affecting the fabric's shaping effect. Therefore, steam separation is necessary after the steam exits the boiler and before it enters the iron; that is, separating the condensate from the steam and discharging it separately. The equipment used for this process is called a steam separator. After the steam enters the steam separator, the condensate comes into contact with and adheres to the inner wall, allowing it to be discharged. A filter can also be added to the steam separator, as the condensate easily adheres to the filter surface, making the separation more efficient. However, the steam flow rate is very fast, and even with a filter, the separation efficiency is limited. Therefore, how to efficiently separate the steam required for garment ironing has become an increasingly urgent problem for relevant technical personnel. Utility Model Content
[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a high-efficiency horizontal water vapor separator for garment ironing.
[0004] A high-efficiency horizontal steam separator for garment ironing includes an outer shell and an inner shell, the inner shell being located at the center of the outer shell. The inner shell is characterized by: an inlet cap at one end and an outlet cap at the other end; a steam guide pipe inside the inner shell, comprising an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe; a baffle between the inlet and outlet pipes; the inlet pipe, baffle, and outlet pipe being welded together as a single unit; an inlet slit near the baffle on the inlet pipe; an outlet slit near the baffle on the outlet pipe; and both the inlet and outlet pipes extending away from the baffle to the outside of the outer shell. A drain pipe is located at the lower part of the inner shell.
[0005] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the cover is smaller than the inner diameter of the inner shell.
[0006] Furthermore, the center positions of the steam inlet end cover, steam outlet end cover, and baffle are all spherical. This spherical design makes the steam inlet end cover, steam outlet end cover, and baffle open. The opening direction of the baffle is the same as that of the steam inlet end cover and opposite to that of the steam outlet end cover.
[0007] Furthermore, the distance between the baffle and the steam inlet end cover is less than the distance between the baffle and the steam outlet end cover.
[0008] Furthermore, the steam inlet cut is symmetrically obliquely cut at the end of the steam inlet pipe near the baffle, and the steam outlet cut is symmetrically obliquely cut at the end of the steam outlet pipe near the baffle.
[0009] Furthermore, the steam inlet pipe passes through the steam inlet end cap and is welded to the steam inlet end cap, the steam outlet pipe passes through the steam outlet end cap and is welded to the steam outlet end cap, and outer caps are provided at both ends of the outer shell. The steam inlet pipe and the steam outlet pipe both pass through adjacent outer caps and are welded to the outer caps. The drain pipe passes through the outer shell and is welded to both the inner shell and the outer shell.
[0010] Furthermore, a first flange is provided at the end of the steam inlet pipe and the steam outlet pipe away from the baffle, and a second flange is provided at the lower end of the drain pipe.
[0011] Furthermore, a filling hole is provided through one side of the outer shell.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model of a high-efficiency horizontal water vapor separator for garment ironing are as follows: 1. The center of the baffle and the steam outlet end cap are both spherical and the opening directions are opposite, so that the steam entering through the steam inlet can flow back and forth between the two and fully collide and contact with the surfaces of the two, the inner wall of the inner shell, and the outer wall of the steam outlet pipe before being discharged through the steam outlet. Compared with the adsorption of condensate by the inner wall of the water-steam separator and the additional filter screen, the water-steam separation efficiency is effectively improved, which effectively meets the use requirement of "efficient water-steam separation for the steam required for ironing clothes". 2. The distance between the baffle and the steam inlet end cover is smaller than the distance between the baffle and the steam outlet end cover, providing ample space for the reciprocating flow of steam. This effectively avoids the situation where the small steam flow space leads to poor water-steam separation. Combined with the symmetrical oblique cut design of the steam inlet and steam outlet cuts, the flow efficiency of steam inside the inner shell is effectively guaranteed, thus further ensuring the water-steam separation efficiency. 3. The first flange and the second flange provide a good structural foundation for the stable connection between this water vapor separator and the external pipeline; 4. The injection hole provides a good structural basis for technicians to inject foamed thermal insulation material into the space between the inner shell and the outer shell.

The inner shell 8 is characterized by: a steam inlet cap 7 at one end and a steam outlet cap 13 at the other end; a steam guide pipe 5 inside the inner shell 8, comprising a steam inlet pipe 10 and a steam outlet pipe 12; a baffle 15 between the steam inlet pipe 10 and the steam outlet pipe 12; the steam inlet pipe 10, the baffle 15, and the steam outlet pipe 12 being welded together as a single unit; a steam inlet slit 11 at the end of the steam inlet pipe 10 near the baffle 15; a steam outlet slit 14 at the end of the steam outlet pipe 12 near the baffle 15; and the ends of both the steam inlet pipe 10 and the steam outlet pipe 12 extending away from the baffle 15 extending to the outside of the outer shell 4. A drain pipe 9 is located at the lower part of the inner shell 8.
[0018] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the cover 15 is smaller than the inner diameter of the inner shell 8.
[0019] Furthermore, the center positions of the steam inlet end cover 7, steam outlet end cover 13, and baffle 15 are all spherical. This spherical design makes the steam inlet end cover 7, steam outlet end cover 13, and baffle 15 open. The opening direction of the baffle 15 is the same as that of the steam inlet end cover 7 and opposite to that of the steam outlet end cover 13.
[0020] Furthermore, the distance between the baffle 15 and the steam inlet end cover 7 is less than the distance between the baffle 15 and the steam outlet end cover 13.
[0021] Furthermore, the steam inlet cut 11 is symmetrically obliquely cut at the end of the steam inlet pipe 10 near the baffle 15, and the steam outlet cut 14 is symmetrically obliquely cut at the end of the steam outlet pipe 12 near the baffle 15.
[0022] Furthermore, the steam inlet pipe 10 passes through the steam inlet end cover 7 and is welded to the steam inlet end cover 7; the steam outlet pipe 12 passes through the steam outlet end cover 13 and is welded to the steam outlet end cover 13; both ends of the outer shell 4 are provided with outer covers 2; the steam inlet pipe 10 and the steam outlet pipe 12 both pass through the adjacent outer covers 2 and are welded to the outer covers 2; the drain pipe 9 passes through the outer shell 4; and the drain pipe 9 is welded to both the inner shell 8 and the outer shell 4.
[0023] Furthermore, a first flange 1 is provided at the end of the steam inlet pipe 10 and the steam outlet pipe 12 away from the baffle 15, and a second flange 3 is provided at the lower end of the drain pipe 9.
[0024] Furthermore, an injection hole 6 is provided through one side of the outer shell 4.
[0025] The working principle of this utility model of a high-efficiency horizontal water vapor separator for garment ironing is as follows: In the final step of the production line, technicians inject foamed insulation material into the space between the inner shell 8 and the outer shell 4 through the injection hole 6. Before use, the water vapor separator is installed in the working position. The steam inlet pipe 10 is connected to the steam delivery pipe led out of the boiler through the first flange 1, and the steam outlet pipe 12 is connected to the steam delivery pipe leading to the iron through the second flange 3. The drain pipe 9 is connected to the external pipe. The steam containing condensate output from the boiler enters the inner shell 8 through the steam inlet pipe 10, exits at the steam inlet cut 11 and blows towards the baffle 15. The spherical outer wall of the baffle 15 disperses the water-containing steam, which enters between the spherical inner wall of the baffle 15 and the steam outlet end cover 13 through the gap between the baffle 15 and the inner shell 8. The water-containing steam is blown towards the steam outlet end. Cover 13, the spherical inner wall of the steam outlet cover 13 causes water-containing steam to gather and blow towards the baffle 15, the spherical inner wall of the baffle 15 causes water-containing steam to gather and blow towards the steam outlet cover 13 again, and so on. During this cycle, the water-containing steam fully collides and contacts with the inner wall of the baffle 15, the inner wall of the steam outlet cover 13, the inner wall of the inner shell 8, and the outer wall of the steam outlet pipe 12, so that the condensate and steam are fully separated. The separated dry steam enters the steam outlet pipe 12 through the steam outlet cut 14, and is then transported to the iron through the steam delivery pipe. The separated condensate is discharged through the drain pipe 9. The steam inlet pipe 10 continuously inputs new steam at the end away from the baffle 15, so that the water-vapor separation continues and the separated dry steam is squeezed out through the steam outlet cut 14 and the steam outlet pipe 12, so as to avoid the separated dry steam from circulating and colliding between the baffle 15 and the steam outlet cover 13 for too long.
[0026] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions conceived without inventive effort should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
