Description

[0001] DESCRIPTION

[0002] SYSTEM FOR PRODUCING VACUUM WITH HIGH AND LOW PRESSURE

[0003] Technical Field

[0004] The present invention relates to a system that produces vacuum, simultaneously with high pressure and low pressure. In particular, the present invention relates to a system that generates 9 Bar and 1.5 Bar pressures concurrently and produces vacuum at the same time, wherein three systems are integrated. In the system according to the invention, a vacuum production system is formed at the input section of the said system that is designed for producing compressed air, and two pressurized air outlet systems, namely a high-pressure and a low-pressure system, are provided at the output section. Thus, in the state of the art, the problem of the fact that vacuum production and high-pressure generation cannot occur simultaneously, has been eliminated.

[0005] Prior Art

[0006] Today, various compression systems that are designed with compressed air generators such as compressors and auxiliary components, operating on the principle of air pressurization, are widely used in many industrial sectors that require compressed air, including molding and printing machines, various cooling systems, mold processing facilities in the automotive sector, and the textile industry. On the other hand, various vacuum systems which comprises vacuum-producing devices such as vacuum pumps and auxiliary vacuum equipment are utilized in many areas of industry, including canning plants, scientific and medical applications, and / or handling technologies wherein robots are particularly used. Furthermore, applications in which both pressurization and vacuum systems are used together can also be encountered in various fields of industry, including the aforementioned fields. In such applications, air pressurization systems containing compressed air devices such as compressors, as well as vacuum systems containing vacuum-producing devices such as vacuum pumps, are used together. Although various devices and industrial applications where both pressurization and vacuum systems are used together exist in the state of the art, these applications generally consist of assemblies containing compressors and vacuum pumps separately. In these systems, the pressure requirement is met by compressors, while vacuum needs are met by using various vacuum pumps. To prevent energy losses in both compressor systems and vacuum systems operated by vacuum pumps, various improvements have been made by utilizing the physical parameters, such as heat and pressure, of the residual gases generated during the operation of the mentioned systems.

[0007] In the state of the art, it is known that small-scale devices capable of meeting both vacuuming and compressed air requirements exist in practice. Although these devices perform both air suction and vacuum pump functions, their major disadvantage is that they operate at low pressure values. Here, low pressure values refer to output air pressure values below 3.5 Bar. Systems that provide vacuuming and compressed air output with pressures exceeding 3.5 Bar have also been encountered. However, the major disadvantage of such systems is that compressed air is produced using a device such as a compressor while vacuuming operations are simultaneously performed using various vacuum devices and equipment such as vacuum pumps. One reason why the systems that produce compressor pressure at pressures exceeding 3.5 Bar and simultaneously generates vacuum are not encountered is that pressure-producing pumps in existing assemblies (e.g. vane pumps) frequently fail at producing compressor-pressurized air at high pressures, making the system unsustainable.

[0008] In the state of the art, a Chinese patent with No: CN212250378U has been encountered. Said patent discloses a system that produces pressurized gas and vacuum simultaneously, particularly for the medical sector. In the invention that is disclosed in the said patent, it is seen that an integrated machine includes a box body, a gas supply unit, a constant pressure unit, and a vacuum unit. In said invention, the gas supply unit is connected to the constant pressure unit. The gas supply unit provides gas input to the constant pressure unit, which pressurizes or processes the gas it receives. In the mentioned invention, a gas filter unit can be installed in the gas supply unit to filter the necessary input and output it to the gas supply unit to obtain high-purity gas. Those skilled in the art can use the gas filter unit depending on specific conditions. In the invention, the gas supply unit includes a gas input, a compressor, a first buffer tank, a pressure sensor, and similar components. Again, in the invention, the constant pressure unit comprises a solenoid valve, a support pump, a second buffer tank, a pressure sensor, a solenoid valve, a gas output, and similar components. In said invention, the air supply unit is equipped with a first buffer tank, which is connected to the compressor for use. In said invention of the patent, the vacuum unit comprises a vacuum input, a vacuum buffer tank, a pressure sensor, a solenoid valve, a vacuum pump, a vacuum output, and similar components. The vacuum unit is equipped with a vacuum buffer tank on the side close to the vacuum input and a vacuum pump on the end near the vacuum output. While the vacuum principle disclosed in said invention is similar to the previously said constant pressure unit, there is only difference in that the vacuum buffer tank has low air pressure and the vacuum output provides vacuum externally. The system disclosed in this patent includes a gas supply unit, a constant pressure unit connected to the gas supply unit, where the gas supply unit includes a gas input, compressor, tank, and pressure sensor, while the constant pressure unit includes a tank, pressure sensor, solenoid valve, and gas output. Additionally, the system comprises a vacuum unit connected to the gas supply unit and the constant pressure unit. Fundamentally, it is observed that the system disclosed in said patent involves only combining a pressure production center and a vacuum production center within the same housing, referred to as a "box body" in the patent, that is the pressure production and vacuum production are separately combined within a housing.

[0009] Another patent in the state of the art, that is produced with a similar concept, is international patent with No: W02020084639. In said patent, it is seen that lower- pressure or vacuum modules are integrated into a pressure production system (compressor). That is, there is a compressor / vacuum configuration that includes one or more pressure or vacuum production systems, a pressure tank, a filter, a dryer, valves, a controller, and similar components. The key point here is that pressure- producing compressor or vacuum systems are combined in series or parallel, enabling the production of compressed air or vacuum according to requirements.

[0010] As can be seen above, there is a need for a system that produces compressed air at pressures greater than 3.5 Bar while simultaneously performing vacuuming operations without requiring any vacuuming device such as a vacuum pump. Here, the aim is not only the production of compressed air but also devices and systems operating based on the use of compressed air.

[0011] Technical Problems Addressed By The Invention

[0012] The present invention relates to a vacuum and compressed air production system with at least three functions that involve at least two pressure value outputs and at least one vacuum value input, which enables both vacuuming and pressurization operations to be performed simultaneously, solely through using air pressurization equipment / equipments, without requiring an additional vacuuming device such as a vacuum pump, wherein an air output pressure of at least 3.5 Bar (three point five) or higher with at least two pressure values (high pressure and low pressure) is utilized in order to solve the problems that are examined in previous section. The invention aims to provide a vacuum and compressed air production system with three function (at least two pressure value outputs and at least one vacuum value input), which is capable of simultaneously producing compressed air and performing vacuum operations without requiring an additional vacuuming device such as a vacuum pump, as seen in the state of the art.

[0013] The most significant advantage of the invention is that it is a system which is produced so as to utilize in operations requiring an output air pressure of 3.5 Bar or higher and comprises electronic and mechanical equipments that enables to perform the simultaneous or independent vacuuming operations while producing variable pressure (high pressure and low pressure) air, wherein a compressed air generator such as a compressor as the main element is used without requiring a separate vacuum-producing device (i.e., a separate vacuuming system) such as vacuum pumps. With the system according to the present invention, it can be possible to produce high-pressure air, low-pressure air, and vacuum by means of a single air generator. Therefore, there is no longer a need for two separate systems that are a pressure generator and a vacuum generator, as seen in the state of the art.

[0014] Another advantage of the present invention is that it is a system wherein initial setup costs and energy consumption are reduced by eliminating the need for an additional equipment such as vacuum pumps to perform vacuuming operations.

[0015] Yet another advantage of the invention is that the system is configured to optionally position the separator in the pressure line outside of the oil and pressure tank. This arrangement increases system energy efficiency by improving the operational efficiency of oil recycle lines (scavenge lines).

[0016] The invention will be better understood with the help of the following figures.

[0058] Detaied Descriptiom of the Invention

[0059] The present invention aims to provide a three-function vacuum and compressed air production system (with high and low-pressure outputs and a vacuum output) that enables coordinated or independent vacuuming and pressurization operations to be performed solely using air pressurization equipment / equipments such as a compressor, without requiring an additional vacuum device such as a vacuum pump.

[0060] Particularly, the present invention aims to provide a system which is particularly configured so as to be used for operations requiring pressures higher than 3.5 Bar (three point five), by enabling vacuuming and air pressurization to be performed simultaneously or separately without a need for additional vacuuming equipment such as a vacuum pump.

[0061] Although the invention primarily relates to industrial applications wherein air pressurization operations requiring an air output pressure of greater than 3.5 (3 point 5) Bar and vacuum power is used, it is applicable to any field where both vacuuming and air pressurization operations are required. For a more detailed description of the invention, the drawings will be utilized; however, there can be some changes in the dimensions, structural details, or configurations in the drawing constructions, so the used drawings must not be binding matters. It must be noted that the protection includes the whole system.

[0062] To better understand the system that produces vacuum along with high and low pressure, as seen in Figure 1 , although the production system (1 ) is theoretically divided into a vacuum line (3) and a pressure line (2), they are not separate systems. It should not be forgotten that this division is a theoretical division, simply for ease of explanation. Said system is not independent from each other as a whole.

[0063] In Figure 1 , according to the invention, the dual-function vacuum and compressed air production system (1 ) is shown in the form of a conceptual design, so as to indicate the dual pressure line (2), vacuum line (3), and balancing valve (26) separately. Figure 2 shows all components of the dual-function vacuum and compressed air production system (1 ) separately, while Figure 3 illustrates said components with dashed lines, so as to indicate which components are included in the dual pressure line (2) and vacuum line (3). In this context, the first air inlet (28), second air inlet (29), first air outlet (30), second air outlet (31 ), and third air outlet (34) refer to the openings that enable air to enter and exit the system according to the invention. These openings can be not only pipes, but also valves, or any other similar equipment which facilitates air inflow and outflow.

[0064] According to invention, the three-function vacuum and compressed air production system (1 ) that produces vacuum along with high and low pressure, generally comprises a dual pressure line (2) and a vacuum line (3) which is connected to each other via an air conduit or pipes through which air flows, and wherein high-pressure air, low-pressure air, and vacuum are produced simultaneously. It must be noted that the pressure line and vacuum line are not independent systems. The dual pressure line (2) and vacuum line (3) interact at specific boundary points where at least one suction regulator (5) forms part of the dual pressure line (2) and at least one air filter (25) forms part of the vacuum line (3). Said suction regulator (5) and air filter (25) are connected to each other via an air conduit through which air flows. There is at least one balancing valve (26) between said elements. Said balancing valve (26) opens toward the first air outlet (30) and then balances the air pressure value in the air pipe in order to prevent the system damage in the case of sudden pressure changes that occur during the operation of the system. Said balancing valve (26) also serves as a boundary line between the dual pressure line (2) and the vacuum line (3). In Figures 1 , 2, and 3, directional arrows indicate the direction of airflow, while the arrows shown around the oil and air tank (7), radiator (10), oil pump (11 ), and air compressor (4) indicate the direction of oil circulation. According to the present invention, in the dual-function vacuum and compressed air production system (1 ), the dual pressure line (2) acts like a compressed air generator and acts also like a vacuum pump and then stimulates the vacuum line by enabling said vacuum line (3) to produce vacuum. Here, by this feature that has a significant advantage over the state of the art, it can be possible that the air required for pressure production is obtained from vacuum production, as explained below, the relevant configuration is made according to this, and both of vacuum and pressure (high and low) are obtained by using a single machine-system.

[0077] - At least one pressure switch (15), which is connected to said pressure and air tank (14) and enables the air pressure in said pressure and air tank (14) to be measured and is connected with the pressure relief valve (12) in the pressure line (2) and the vacuum switch (22) in the vacuum line (3), preferably via signal cables,

[0078] - At least one pressure application unit (27) which enables the accumulated compressed air in said pressure and air tank (14) to be transferred to outside of the system at adjustable outlet pressure ranges in order to use for any purpose,

[0079] - At least one regulator (32), which is positioned for reducing pressure to supply low-pressure air, after said pressure check valve (13),

[0080] - At least one low-pressure tank (33) wherein it is enabled the low-pressure air to be stored from said regulator (32),

[0081] - At least one third air outlet (34) which enables the low-pressure to be transferred to the system as required from the low-pressure valve (32).

[0082] In the system described above, low pressure preferably refers to a range of 0-3.5 Bar, while high pressure refers to pressures exceeding 3.5 Bar. However, these ranges may vary as needed.

[0083] Among the abovementioned elements, the air compressor (4) encompasses all types of compressors used for compressed air production. Said suction regulator (5) is a type of valve that transfers the suction force generated by the air compressor (4) to the vacuum line (3). It is configured to allow air to flow unidirectionally from the vacuum line (3) toward the pressure line (2), preventing reverse airflow. The abovementioned radiator (10) is an equipment that performs the operation of fluid cooling, wherein said fluid passes through the said radiator. The oil pump (11 ) enables the pressurization of oil recirculated from the oil and air tank (7) through pipelines, depending on the mechanical structure of the used air compressor (4) or in the case of a need for additional lubrication for bearings.

[0084] As shown in Figure 3, the vacuum line (3) which is presented separately from the pressure line (2) comprises the minimum equipment necessary to produce vacuum, and to be used functionally as a vacuum producer, such as a vacuum pump.

[0085] In the dual-function vacuum and compressed air production system (1 ) according to the present invention, the vacuum line (3) comprises: - At least one air filter (25) which allows air moving from the vacuum line (3) toward the dual pressure line (2) to be cleansed of particles such as dust that may damage the system.

[0090] - At least one air inlet valve (20) which allows unidirectional entry of air into the vacuum balancing tank (21 ) through the first air inlet (28) and at least one tank filter (19) which is used to filter air.

[0091] - At least one vacuum application unit (18) which enables the external utilization of the vacuum flow at adjustable negative pressure ranges, in order to use the negative pressure (vacuum suction flow) for any purpose, wherein said negative pressure is caused by air-free medium, through the dual pressure line (2) in said vacuum balancing tank (21 ).

[0092] Out of the abovementioned components, the air filter (25) is an apparatus which is used to prevent unwanted particles, such as dust, that could damage the system, from entering the dual pressure line (2) through the airflow. Said vacuum check valve (23) is an apparatus which is configured to allow airflow only in one direction, from the vacuum balancing tank (21 ) to the dual pressure line (2).

[0093] Said vacuum bypass valve (24) is a check valve which is activated when the negative pressure in the vacuum balancing tank (21 ) reaches the desired range, as measured by the vacuum switch (22), and is positioned to allow the environmental air to enter the system through the second air inlet (29) to meet the air requirement of the dual pressure line (2) while preventing reverse airflow.

[0094] Vacuum balancing tank (21 ) consists of an internal air-free volume and an outer surface, preferably made of steel or another material with high resistance to negative pressure.The vacuum balancing tank (21 ) ensures the continuity of the vacuum created by the dual pressure line (2) and allows the adjustment of the negative pressure to desired ranges.

[0095] Said tank filter (19) prevents harmful particles, such as dust, from entering the vacuum line (3).

[0096] Operational Method of the Invention

[0097] The dual-function vacuum and compressed air production system (1 ) according to the invention also includes a method, illustrated in Figure 4 as a flow diagram, and is characterized by comprising the following steps:

[0098] - Step 100: Activation of the pressure line - The system begins operation by activating the pressure line (2).

[0099] - Step 200: Generation of vacuum in the vacuum line - Vacuum is produced in the vacuum line (3) by using the suction force generated by the dual pressure line (2). - Step 300: Production of compressed air in the pressure line - The pressure line (2) produces compressed air at both high and low pressures for system output.

[0100] Detailed Explanation of the Steps

[0101] Step 100: Activation of the Pressure Line

[0102] The pressure line activation step (100) begins with the operation of at least one air compressor (4) in the dual pressure line (2), which is driven by at least one electrical motor (6). The air required for the operation of said air compressor (4) is drawn through at least one suction regulator (5) from the vacuum line (3) into the dual pressure line (2). Since the suction regulator (5) is connected to the vacuum line (3) via an air conduit or a series of air conduits, the air flowing toward the dual pressure line (2) drives the suction regulator (5) in the vacuum line (3).

[0103] Step 200: Generation of Vacuum in the Vacuum Line

[0104] When the air compressor (4) in the dual pressure line (2) operates, it creates a suction force in the direction of pressure line (2), in the vacuum line (3) via the suction regulator (5) connected through an air conduit. This suction force activates all components of the vacuum line (3), then it is allowed the air to be drawn from the vacuum balancing tank (21 ), thereby creating negative pressure in the tank. The air- free negative pressure which is generated by the medium in the vacuum balancing tank (21 ) via the dual pressure line (2) is utilized by the vacuum application unit (18), then the goal of vacuum generation is achieved.

[0105] Step 300: Production of Compressed Air in the Pressure Line

[0106] During the operation of the air compressor (4), the mixture of oil and air produced is sent to the oil and air tank (7). This mixture is separated into oil and air by at least one separator (8). The separator (8) transfers the air to the minimum pressure valve (9), from where it passes through at least one pressure check valve (13) and is compressed into the pressure and air tank (14). The compressed air stored in the pressure and air tank (14) is released to the outside at adjustable output pressure ranges, through at least one pressure application unit (27) for any intended use, such as supplying compressed air for industrial processes, thereby the objective of compressed air production is achieved.

[0107] In the description, the present invention has been described using a specific system for illustrative purposes, without intending to limit its scope. The examples provided are for ease of understanding, and it is evident that modifications or variations can be made by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope defined by the claims, description, and figures. Accordingly, the invention is intended to encompass the full scope defined by the claims, including various modifications or variations that fall within this scope.
