Description

A dual-channel filter Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of filters, in particular to a dual-channel filter. Background Art

[0002] The filter is an indispensable device on the pipeline for conveying media. It is usually installed on the pressure regulating valve, pressure relief valve and water level valve to achieve solid-liquid separation or solid-gas separation.

[0003] For example, in the field of gas transmission and distribution, in order to extend the service life of the controller of the pressure regulator, it is usually necessary to install a filter on the gas supply pipeline to further filter the supply gas source and improve the cleanliness of the supply gas source. At present, in order to facilitate the inspection and replacement of the corresponding filter screens, most of the filters on the market are dual-channel filters, which usually include two single filter structures in parallel, which are connected by two three-way valves. In response to the above-mentioned related technologies, when the staff inspects or replaces the filter screen, they need to switch the two three-way valves at the same time. If only one of the three-way valves is switched, the pressure regulator will be in a fault position, affecting the normal operation of the pipeline. The inventor believes that it is difficult to adjust the two three-way valves at the same time, which easily leads to the risk of misoperation and there is room for improvement.

[0004] Summary of the Invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a dual-channel filter for realizing online replacement of the filter screen without affecting the normal operation of the pipeline, while improving the convenience of replacing or repairing the filter screen.

[0006] The technical solutions provided by the present invention are as follows:

[0007] The present invention provides a dual-channel filter, comprising:

[0008] a housing, wherein an inlet and an outlet are provided on the housing;

[0009] a first filter chamber and a second filter chamber, wherein the first filter chamber and the second filter chamber are both located between the inlet and the outlet, and a first pipeline and a second pipeline are provided in the housing, wherein the first filter chamber is connected to the inlet and the outlet respectively through the first pipeline, and the second filter chamber is connected to the inlet and the outlet respectively through the second pipeline;

[0010] a first core and a second core, both of which are rotatably disposed within the housing, and both of which are located at the connection between the first pipe and the second pipe, with the first core connecting the inlet and the first pipe, and the second core connecting the outlet and the first pipe, or the first core connecting the inlet and the second pipe, and the second core connecting the outlet and the second pipe;

[0011] A reversing assembly connects the first ball core and the second ball core, and drives the first ball core and the second ball core to rotate simultaneously to switch the passage between the inlet and the outlet.

[0012] The dual-channel filter provided by the present invention is connected to the gas supply pipeline. In specific operation, high-pressure gas enters the shell from the inlet, and sequentially passes through the first spherical core inner channel and the first pipeline into the outer cavity of the first filter cavity, then passes through the filter screen into the inner cavity of the first filter cavity, and then passes through the first pipeline and the second spherical core inner channel in sequence before being discharged from the shell from the outlet. At this time, the first filter cavity and its inner filter screen are used for filtering operations, and the second filter cavity and its inner filter screen are used as backup. The filter screen in the second filter cavity can be repaired and replaced.

[0013] When the reversing assembly is started, the reversing assembly drives the first ball core and the second ball core to rotate simultaneously until the first ball core is connected to the inlet and the second pipeline, and the second ball core is connected to the outlet and the second pipeline. At this time, the second filter chamber and its inner filter are used for filtering operations, and the first filter chamber and its inner filter are used as spares. The filter in the first filter chamber can be repaired or replaced.

[0014] The driving assembly drives the first ball core and the second ball core to rotate simultaneously, thereby realizing the switching of the air path in the shell, effectively improving the convenience of the air path switching operation, and making it easier for the staff to repair or replace the corresponding filter.

[0017] The first interlocking gear is meshed with the second interlocking gear;

[0018] The housing is provided with a driving member, and the driving member drives the first interlocking gear and the second interlocking gear to rotate.

[0019] In some embodiments, a first plug-in block is formed on one end of the first valve stem close to the first ball core, and a first slot is formed in the first ball core corresponding to the first plug-in block. The first plug-in block is inserted into the first slot and plugged into the first ball core.

[0020] A second plug-in block is formed on one end of the second valve stem close to the second ball core. The second ball core has a second slot corresponding to the second plug-in block. The second plug-in block is embedded in the second slot and plugged into the second ball core.

[0021] Through the dual-channel filter provided by the present invention, the connection between the first valve stem and the first ball core, and the connection between the second valve stem and the second ball core are realized by means of the plug-in cooperation between the first plug-in block and the first slot, and the plug-in cooperation between the second plug-in block and the second slot. The connection structure is simple, which helps to improve the production convenience of the dual-channel filter and save the company's manufacturing costs.

[0022] In some embodiments, the driving member includes a handle, which is fixedly connected to an end of the first valve stem away from the first interlocking gear; or, the handle is fixedly connected to an end of the second valve stem away from the second interlocking gear.

[0023] With the dual-channel filter provided by the present invention, when switching the air path, a worker grips and turns the handle to drive the first or second interlocking gear to rotate, while also driving the second or first interlocking gear to rotate. Under the action of the first and second interlocking gears, the first and second cores rotate in opposite directions, changing the air path from the original one where the first core connects the inlet to the first pipeline and the second core connects the outlet to the first pipeline, to the one where the first core connects the inlet to the second pipeline and the second core connects the outlet to the second pipeline, and vice versa. Switching the air path by turning the handle has a simple structure and is easy to operate, which helps further improve the convenience of workers when repairing or replacing the filter.

[0029] The two ends of the spring respectively press against the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the fixing sleeve and the bottom wall of the filter screen, and make the end of the filter screen away from its own bottom wall press against the inner wall of the shell.

[0030] In the dual-channel filter provided by the present invention, a spring is used to support the filter screen and press the end of the filter screen away from its bottom wall against the inner wall of the shell, thereby stably separating the filter cavity into an inner cavity and an outer cavity that are independent of each other. The structure is simple and the manufacturing is convenient, which effectively ensures the production convenience of the dual-channel filter.

[0031] In some embodiments, a sealing gasket is tightly arranged between the end of the filter screen facing away from the bottom wall and the inner wall of the shell.

As used herein, "one" not only means "only one" but also "more than one."

[0055] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 5 of the accompanying drawings of the specification, a dual-channel filter includes a housing 1, an inlet 11 and an outlet 12 opened on the housing 1, a first filter chamber 61 and a second filter chamber 62 are respectively provided between the inlet 11 and the outlet 12 in the housing 1; a first pipe 71 is provided in the housing 1 corresponding to the first filter chamber 61, and the first filter chamber 61 is communicated with the inlet 11 and the outlet 12 respectively through the first pipe 71; a second pipe 81 is provided in the housing 1 corresponding to the second filter, and the second filter chamber 62 is communicated with the inlet 11 and the outlet 12 respectively through the second pipe 81; A first ball core 2 and a second ball core 3 are separately provided for rotation. The first ball core 2 and the second ball core 3 are both located at the connection between the first pipeline 71 and the second pipeline 81, and the first ball core 2 is connected to the inlet 11 and the first pipeline 71, and the second ball core 3 is connected to the outlet 12 and the first pipeline 71, or the first ball core 2 is connected to the inlet 11 and the second pipeline 81, and the second ball core 3 is connected to the outlet 12 and the second pipeline 81; a reversing component 4 is also provided in the shell 1, the reversing component 4 connects the first ball core 2 and the second ball core 3, and drives the first ball core 2 and the second ball core 3 to rotate simultaneously, so as to switch the passage between the inlet 11 and the outlet 12.

[0056] The dual-channel filter is suitable for use in gas or liquid medium delivery pipelines. In this embodiment of the present application, the use scenario of the gas medium delivery pipeline is used as an example for explanation, and specifically the gas supply pipeline is used as an example for explanation. After the dual-channel filter is connected to the gas supply pipeline, in the first state, the high-pressure gas enters the inner cavity of the shell 1 from the inlet 11, and enters the outer cavity of the first filter cavity 61 through the inner channel of the first ball core 2 and the first pipeline 71 in turn, and then is filtered by the filter 63 and enters the inner cavity of the first filter cavity 61, and then enters the inner channel of the second ball core 3 through the first pipeline 71 in turn, and is discharged from the shell 1 from the outlet 12; at this time, the first filter cavity 61 and its inner filter 63 are used for filtering operations, and the second filter cavity 62 and its inner filter 63 are used as spares. The filter 63 in the second filter cavity 62 can be repaired and replaced.

[0057] When switching the gas circuit, the reversing assembly 4 drives the first ball core 2 and the second ball core 3 to rotate simultaneously until the first ball core 2 connects to the inlet 11 and the second pipe 81, and the second ball core 3 connects to the outlet 12 and the second pipe 81, entering the second state. At this time, the high-pressure gas enters the inner cavity of the shell 1 from the inlet 11, and passes through the inner channel of the first ball core 2 and the second pipe 81 in sequence to enter the outer cavity of the second filter cavity 62. It is then filtered by the filter 63 and enters the inner cavity of the second filter cavity 62. It then passes through the second pipe 81 in sequence to enter the inner channel of the second ball core 3 and is discharged from the shell 1 through the outlet 12. In the second state, the second filter cavity 62 and its inner filter 63 are used for filtering, while the first filter cavity 61 and its inner filter 63 serve as a backup. The filter 63 in the first filter cavity 61 can be repaired or replaced. Using this method to switch the gas circuit in the shell 1 is simple in structure and easy to operate, effectively improving the convenience of workers when repairing or replacing the corresponding filter 63.

[0058] In one embodiment, based on the above embodiment, specifically; referring to Figures 1 and 2, the shell 1 is a rectangular box-shaped structure, and the inlet 11 and the outlet 12 are respectively opened at the center position of the two ends of the shell 1 in the length direction; of course, depending on the application scenario, the shell 1 can be set to any shape.

Each adapter 13 is embedded in the corresponding inlet 11 or outlet 12 along its own axis and is snap-fitted with the inner wall of the corresponding inlet 11 or outlet 12. Of course, other connection methods such as threaded connection can also be used to connect the adapter 13 and the corresponding inlet 11 or outlet 12. In the embodiments of the present application, there is no specific limitation on this. At the same time, to improve the sealing performance of the dual-channel filter, in this embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figure 2, a coaxial annular groove is coaxially formed on the outer circumferential surface of the end of the adapter 13 extending into the housing 1, and a sealing ring is provided on the fixed sleeve 6 in the annular groove. After the adapter 13 is installed to the corresponding inlet 11 or the corresponding outlet 12, the outer circumferential surface of the adapter 13 presses the sealing ring against the inner wall of the corresponding inlet 11 or the inner wall of the corresponding outlet 12.
