Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste heat recovery technology, specifically a heat exchanger for waste heat recovery from cooling water in hot-dip galvanized steel pipes. Background Technology
[0002] During the hot-dip galvanizing process of steel pipes, the steel pipes need to be cooled after galvanizing. Cooling water is usually used for cooling, and the water temperature after cooling is high, containing a large amount of residual heat.
[0003] However, the current industry practices for handling such high-temperature cooling water have significant flaws. Most companies discharge it directly into sewers, resulting in a large loss of heat energy. While some companies perform simple filtration and recirculation of the cooling water, they do not utilize the residual heat. Directly introducing high-temperature cooling water into the circulation system causes cooling equipment to operate under high load for extended periods, increasing energy consumption and reducing cooling efficiency due to excessively high water temperature. This leads to poor cooling of subsequent steel pipes, affecting product quality. Furthermore, directly discharging high-temperature cooling water causes thermal pollution to the surrounding environment and disrupts the aquatic ecosystem. Recirculation requires continuous replenishment of fresh water to maintain cooling effectiveness, increasing water consumption and production costs, which cannot meet current demands. Utility Model Content

[0006] The heat exchange assembly consists of an inlet pipe, an outlet pipe, a first liquid collection hopper, a first fixing plate, a first liquid inlet pipe, a second liquid collection hopper, a second fixing plate, a second liquid inlet pipe, and a heat exchange tube.

[0007] Preferably, the connecting assembly consists of a rotating shaft, a door body, a fixed cylinder, a slider, a limiting rod, a sliding rod, a spring, and a fixing block. The rotating shaft is rotatably installed inside the heat exchange box, the door body is fixedly installed outside the rotating shaft, the fixed cylinder is fixedly installed on the side of the heat exchange box, the slider is slidably installed inside the fixed cylinder, the limiting rod is fixedly installed at one end of the slider, the sliding rod is fixedly installed at the other end of the slider, the spring is sleeved on the surface of the sliding rod, and the fixing block is fixedly installed at the bottom of the door body.
[0008] Preferably, the heat exchange tubes are arranged in a circumferential array between the first fixed plate and the second fixed plate. This arrangement can increase the contact area between the liquid to be heat exchanged and the hot cooling water, thus enabling better heat exchange.
[0009] Preferably, a handle is fixedly installed on the top of the door, which can drive the door to rotate around the central axis of the pivot.
[0010] Preferably, a pull ring is fixedly installed on the side of the slide rod, and the slide rod can be moved by the pull ring.

[0012] Preferably, the fixing block has a limiting groove inside that matches the limiting rod, so that the limiting rod can enter the interior of the fixing block and fix the door to the top of the heat exchange box.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This heat exchanger for recovering waste heat from the cooling water during hot-dip galvanizing of steel pipes adds hot cooling water into the heat exchange tank through an inlet pipe, and then discharges the cooled water after heat exchange through an outlet pipe and reintroduces it into the cooling system for hot-dip galvanizing of steel pipes. The liquid to be exchanged is added to the first inlet pipe, and after passing through the first collection hopper, heat exchange pipe, and second collection hopper, it is discharged from the second inlet pipe. This process transfers heat from the hot cooling water to the liquid to be exchanged, thus achieving the reuse of heat and water resources.
[0014] The heat exchanger for waste heat recovery of hot-dip galvanized steel pipe cooling water uses a pull ring to move a sliding rod, which can cause the slider to move the limit rod away from the limit groove. The spring is compressed, and the door can be opened by rotating the handle around the central axis of the rotating shaft. This allows the scale on the surface of the heat exchange tube to be cleaned, preventing the scale from affecting the heat exchange effect. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The connecting assembly 3 consists of a rotating shaft 301, a door body 302, a fixed cylinder 303, a slider 304, a limiting rod 305, a sliding rod 306, a spring 307, and a fixing block 308. The rotating shaft 301 is rotatably mounted inside the heat exchange box 1, and the door body 302 is fixedly mounted outside the rotating shaft 301. A handle is fixedly mounted on the top of the door body 302, which can drive the door body 302 to rotate around the central axis of the rotating shaft 301. The fixed cylinder 303 is fixedly mounted on the side of the heat exchange box 1, the slider 304 is slidably mounted inside the fixed cylinder 303, the limiting rod 305 is fixedly mounted on one end of the slider 304, and the sliding rod 306...
