Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe cleaning equipment, and is a water-absorbing and drying box for the outer wall of a pipe. Background Technology

[0002] Existing pipe cleaning equipment typically includes pipe cleaning and drying processes. Common methods for drying the outer wall of pipes are wiping and hot air drying. For example, Chinese patent document CN222268101U, authorized on December 21, 2024, entitled "A Pipe Outer Wall Cleaning Device," discloses a drying device including a fixed seat and a movable seat connected by springs. Both the fixed and movable seats have through holes for pipe fittings to pass through. Drying nozzles are arrayed inside the fixed and movable seats. Air is blown onto the circumference of the pipe fitting through the drying nozzles to dry the outer wall of the pipe. This method is relatively simple and efficient. However, its disadvantages include the need for an external booster pump and hot air device, resulting in high overall energy consumption and noise. Furthermore, the drying device requires frequent disassembly, cleaning, and maintenance during long-term use, which is cumbersome and costly. Therefore, improvements to existing pipe outer wall drying devices are needed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the above shortcomings, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a pipe outer wall water absorption and drying box, which solves the technical problems of existing similar pipe outer wall drying devices that use hot air blowing, resulting in high energy consumption, high noise, lack of self-cleaning function, frequent disassembly and cleaning maintenance, inconvenient assembly and disassembly, and high investment costs. This objective is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0004] A pipe external wall water absorption and drying box includes a water collection box and water absorption scrapers. Its key structural feature is that the water collection box has an inlet and outlet for a horizontally guiding pipe. Vertical water absorption scrapers are spaced at intervals along the horizontal direction of the inlet and outlet within the water collection box. Each water absorption scraper has a pipe hole in its center to accommodate the passage of the pipe fitting. The bottom of the water collection box has a water collection trough to collect the dripping water from each water absorption scraper, and a drain pipe is connected to the bottom of the water collection trough. Through this structure, the water absorption scrapers effectively absorb water from the pipe fitting passing through the pipe hole. After absorption, the water flows down by gravity into the water collection trough and is discharged or recycled through the drain pipe. The overall operation is simple, requiring no additional equipment or energy investment, with low noise and good cleaning effect on the pipe external wall.

[0005] The water-absorbing scraper includes two side plates and a water-absorbing plate located between the two side plates. This structure makes the water-absorbing scraper easy to assemble and use.

[0006] An opening is formed at the bottom of the clamping plate on the side corresponding to the inlet of the pipe in the water-absorbing scraper. The opening serves as a channel for the water to drain under its own weight after the water-absorbing plate has absorbed the water. This structure facilitates the effective gravity-guided flow of water downwards after the water-absorbing plate of the water-absorbing scraper has absorbed the water.

[0007] Both sides of the water collection box are provided with slots for inserting the water-absorbing scraper. With this structure, the water-absorbing scraper can be directly inserted into the slots of the water collection box after assembly to form a fixed position, making it convenient to assemble, disassemble and use.

[0008] The water collection box has spaced-apart blocks on both sides, forming slots between adjacent blocks. The blocks are fixed to the side walls of the water collection box with bolts. This structure facilitates the formation of slots, and the blocks can be replaced or removed as needed to create slots with more spacing.

[0009] The side wall of the water collection box is equipped with a rinsing nozzle for rinsing the suction scraper. The rinsing nozzle is externally connected to a liquid supply pipeline with a control valve. With this structure, after the suction scraper has been used for a period of time, the rinsing nozzle can be turned on to rinse and clean the suction scraper, eliminating the tedious process of disassembly and cleaning.

[0010] Based on the structural features of the pipe outer wall water absorption and drying box described above, the pipe outer wall water absorption and drying box is installed at the pipe outlet end of the pipe outer wall cleaning device. This structure integrates the pipe outer wall drying and cleaning equipment, making operation and use more convenient.

[0011] The pipe outer wall cleaning device includes a cleaning tank, a pump, a cleaning nozzle, and a gas-liquid separator. The cleaning tank is divided into two interconnected areas: an upper cleaning area and a lower storage area. The cleaning area has an inlet and an outlet at both ends for the pipe fittings to pass through. The gas-liquid separator is fixed in the middle of the cleaning area. One end of the separator has an opening for the pipe fittings, and the bottom has a water passage hole communicating with the storage area. The top of the separator near the opening has an exhaust pipe connecting to the outside of the cleaning tank. The other end of the separator is fixedly connected to the cleaning nozzle for cleaning the pipe outer wall. The cleaning nozzle has a through hole in the middle for the pipe fittings to pass through. The cleaning nozzle is connected to the pump via a pipeline. The pump inlet is connected to a filter and then to the storage area. The bottom of the storage area has a drain pipe with a valve. The drain pipe at the bottom of the water collection box drains into the storage area. This structure is a specific implementation scheme for pipe outer wall cleaning.

[0012] This invention utilizes water absorption and drying on the outer wall of the pipe, resulting in high drying efficiency and excellent effect. It also features automatic cleaning without disassembly, making structural maintenance convenient. Overall, it has low investment cost and energy consumption, low noise, and is economical and environmentally friendly. It is suitable for use as an outer wall drying device for various pipe fittings, or as a structural improvement of similar drying devices. Attached Figure Description

The specific structural design is as follows: the water-absorbing scraper includes clamping plates 201 on both sides and a water-absorbing plate 202 located between the clamping plates on both sides. An opening is formed at the bottom of the clamping plate corresponding to the pipe hole, which serves as a channel for the water-absorbing plate to drain water by its own weight after absorption. There are spaced blocks 4 on both sides inside the water collection box, and slots are formed between adjacent blocks. The blocks are fixed to the side wall of the water collection box by bolts. After the water-absorbing plate is clamped by the clamping plates on both sides of the water-absorbing scraper, it can be directly inserted into the slot to form a fixed structure. The side wall of the water collection box is provided with a flushing nozzle that flushes the water suction scraper, and the flushing nozzle is externally connected to a liquid supply pipeline with a control valve.

[0020] like Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the water absorption and drying box on the outer wall of the pipe can also be directly installed at the outlet end of the pipe of the outer wall cleaning device 5.
