Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The technical field of the invention is that of pressurized gas supply. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventional compressors use pistons to compress gas, so the compression pressure and supply volume decrease due to wear on the pistons and cylinders.

[0003] When the valve is switched while the pump is operating, high pressure is generated due to the water hammer phenomenon caused by the inertia of the liquid. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] JP 2019-210878 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The problem to be solved was that because gas was pressurized using a piston, the compression pressure and supply volume decreased due to wear of the piston and cylinder. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The means for solving the problem utilizes the inertial force of liquid supplied by a pump instead of a piston to compress and supply gas in a compression container. Effect of the Invention

[0007] Conventional compressors use a piston to compress gas, and so the compression pressure and supply volume decrease due to wear of the piston and cylinder. However, in the present invention, the gas is compressed by the acting liquid, so there is no performance decrease due to wear of such parts.

[0008] The part that corresponds to the piston of a conventional compressor is a liquid such as water, and this liquid removes the heat from the gas generated by compression and cools the compressed air. Therefore, the temperature of the compressed air is lower than with conventional compressors, and there is less pressure loss due to temperature drop during storage.

[0009] The water hammer phenomenon caused by the inertial force of the liquid generated by opening and closing the valve is utilized, which increases the pressure that can be extracted. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0010] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is an overall view of a first embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0011] A first embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. EXAMPLES

[0012] The following explanation will be given based on the case where the compression vessel is 2 in FIG. Valves V1, V8, and V7 are opened, and valves V2, V3, V4, V5, V6, and V9 are closed, the liquid in compression vessel T2 is supplied to the pump, and the liquid from compression vessel T2 that comes out of the pump is put into compression vessel T1 to compress the gas in compression vessel T1. When the compressed gas reaches a sufficient pressure, valve V2 is opened, and valves V1, V3, V4, V6 and V9 are closed, and the gas is sent to compressed gas storage vessel T3 for storage. At this time, open valves V5 and V8 to reduce the shutoff operation time of the pump. When the compressed gas has been sent from compression vessel T1 to compressed gas storage vessel T3, valves V1, V2, V6, V7, V8, and V9 are closed, and valves V3, V4, and V5 are opened, so that the liquid in compression vessel T1 is supplied to the pump and placed into compression vessel T2, compressing the gas in compression vessel T2. When the compressed gas in compression vessel T2 reaches sufficient pressure, valve V6 is opened, valves V2, V5, V8, and V9 are closed to send the gas to compressed gas storage vessel T3 for storage, and valves V1 and V4 are opened to reduce the shut-off operation time of the pump. Once the compressed gas has been sent from compression vessel T2 to compressed gas storage vessel T3, the valve is operated to supply the liquid in compression vessel T2 to the pump again and allow the liquid from compression vessel T2 that comes out of the pump to enter compression vessel T1, compressing the gas in compression vessel T1, and this cycle is repeated. In addition, the liquid that entered the compressed gas storage container T3 together with the compressed air is discharged from the compressed gas storage container T3 by the valve V9, and when there is a small amount of liquid to be used for compressing the gas, the necessary amount of liquid is replenished in place of the gas when the gas is sucked in from the valve V3 or the valve V7. [Industrial Applicability]

[0013] It uses liquid to compress gas. [Explanation of symbols]
