Abstract

[0002] In the medical field, air compressors serve as power gas sources for key medical equipment such as ventilators and anesthesia machines, and their exhaust quality is directly related to the safety and convenience of medical operations. During the operation of a medical air compressor, when air is compressed, wastewater containing trace oil stains, particulate matter and microorganisms is generated due to condensation. If such wastewater is discharged directly, it will not only pollute the medical environment and violate the environmental protection compliance requirements of medical sites, but also, if insufficient gas-liquid separation leads to residual wastewater remaining with the gas, it may corrode medical gas pipelines, pollute other medical equipment, and even indirectly affect the safety of patient diagnosis and treatment. Existing wastewater treatment or storage equipment matched with medical air compressors mostly has the problem of simple design of gas-liquid separation structure, insufficient airflow buffer leads to low separation efficiency, it is difficult to completely remove trace wastewater and impurities entrained in gas, and cannot meet the requirements of high cleanliness of medical gas; although some devices enhance the separation effect, they have complex structures, high energy consumption, and lack compact and low-maintenance design requirements adapted to medical scenarios, and are prone to risks such as wastewater leakage and secondary pollution during operation, and cannot fully adapt to the special application scenarios of medical air compressors.

[0020] As per the instruction manual Figure 1-3 As shown: A wastewater storage tank for air compressor exhaust includes: a storage tank body 100, a venting tank 200, and a connecting pipe 130; one end of the connecting pipe 130 is connected to the storage tank body 100, and the other end is connected to the venting tank 200; the upper end of the venting tank 200 is connected to the air compressor exhaust pipe 310, and the side wall of the venting tank 200 is connected to the exhaust output pipe 320; the venting tank 200 includes a venting component 260, and a baffle plate 265 is provided on the top of the venting component 260; a movable cavity 230 is provided inside the venting tank 200 for accommodating the venting component 260, and the outer diameter of the baffle plate 265 is smaller than the diameter of the movable cavity 230.
[0021] The working principle of a wastewater storage tank for air compressor exhaust: The airflow containing wastewater discharged from the air compressor enters the slack air tank 200 through the air compressor exhaust pipe 310. Due to the high pressure of the discharged wastewater-containing air, after entering the slack air tank 200, the wastewater-containing air first collides with the baffle plate 265 on the top of the slack air assembly 260. Since the outer diameter of the baffle plate 265 is smaller than the diameter of the moving cavity 230, the baffle plate 265 is pushed by the force to move the slack air assembly 260 downward. At this time, the connecting pipe 130 is connected to the air compressor exhaust pipe 310 through the space inside the slack air tank 200. Part of the wastewater-containing airflow flows into the storage tank 100 for centralized storage through the connecting pipe 130 connecting the slack air tank 200 and the storage tank 100, while part of the discharged gas is discharged through the exhaust outlet pipe 320 on the side wall of the slack air tank 200.
[0022] In this embodiment, a wastewater storage tank for air compressor exhaust uses a baffle plate to buffer the airflow, significantly reducing the airflow velocity. This allows a portion of the wastewater-containing airflow to be discharged into the storage tank for centralized storage, reducing residual wastewater in the exhaust and ensuring exhaust cleanliness. The overall structure is simple, reducing energy consumption and maintenance costs. A portion of the wastewater-containing airflow flows directionally into the storage tank via a connecting pipe for gas-liquid separation, centrally storing the wastewater. This avoids environmental pollution, facilitates subsequent treatment and recycling, and improves resource utilization.
[0023] Specifically, a limiting structure 266 is installed at the bottom of the gas easing component 260, and the limiting structure 266 is located outside the outer wall of the gas easing tank 200; a return spring 270 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the gas easing component 260, the top end of the return spring 270 is fixed to the top of the baffle plate 265, and the bottom end is fixed to the bottom of the moving cavity 230; a first limiting plate 210 and a second limiting plate 220 are provided inside the gas easing tank 200, and the moving position of the baffle plate 265 is within the limiting space of the first limiting plate 210 and the second limiting plate 220. The return spring 270 provides elastic support and reset, allowing the baffle plate 265 to quickly rebound and reset after being impacted by airflow, adapting to airflow fluctuations under different exhaust pressures and further improving the stability of buffering the depressurized gas. The first limiting plate 210, the second limiting plate 220, and the limiting structure 266 on the outer wall of the buffer tank 200 form a double limiting, precisely limiting the movement range of the baffle plate 265, avoiding excessive displacement or offset that could reduce the buffering effect, and preventing damage from component collisions. The overall design enhances the structural reliability of the buffer component 260.
[0024] Specifically, the inner wall of the air tank 200 and the upper part of the baffle plate 265 form an exhaust chamber 235, and the air compressor exhaust pipe 310 and exhaust output pipe 320 are respectively connected to the exhaust chamber 235. The airflow containing wastewater introduced by the air compressor exhaust pipe 310 directly enters the exhaust chamber 235 and collides and buffers with the baffle plate 265 to prevent the airflow from spreading to other areas inside the tank and causing turbulence; at the same time, the exhaust chamber 235 is directly connected to the exhaust output pipe 320, allowing some gas to be quickly discharged along the directional channel, reducing airflow stagnation and resistance.
[0025] Specifically, the connecting pipe 130 is installed at the gas tank connection port 135, and the gas tank connection port 135 is connected to the moving cavity 230.
[0026] Specifically, a storage tank cover 110 is provided on the upper part of the storage tank 100. The storage tank cover 110 is installed with the storage tank 100 by snap-fit or thread connection. The top of the storage tank cover 110 is connected to the connecting pipe 130. The top of the storage tank cover 110 is also provided with a storage tank exhaust pipe 115, which can promptly discharge the small amount of residual gas in the storage tank, balance the gas pressure in the tank, avoid excessive gas pressure from hindering the flow of wastewater-containing gas, and ensure the smooth collection of wastewater.
[0027] Specifically, the storage tank 100 is equipped with an adsorption filter 120 to deeply purify the wastewater flowing in through the connecting pipe 130, intercept impurities in the wastewater, improve the cleanliness of the wastewater, and facilitate subsequent wastewater recycling or treatment to meet standards.
[0028] Specifically, the storage tank 100 is equipped with a cooling component 105 on its side wall to quickly reduce the temperature of the wastewater stored in the tank, prevent the high-temperature wastewater from evaporating and producing odors or causing abnormal tank pressure, reduce the wear and tear on the tank material caused by high temperature, and extend the service life of the storage tank.
