Reactor Bottom Plate Bonding Layer Vibration Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Reactor vibration is intensified due to incomplete adherence of the bottom plate to the base platform, reducing the contact area and increasing elastic deformation, especially in high-voltage reactors with larger capacity, where the base platform's levelness and flatness are compromised by cement contraction and slotted steel welding, leading to increased magnetic force effects.
Innovation Solution
Filling a gap between the bottom plate and the base platform with epoxy resin to increase contact area, reduce vibration, and prevent rust, while using a controlled bonding force to allow for easy lifting during maintenance, with epoxy resin's properties matching or exceeding those of steel and concrete materials for effective damping.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If the bottom plate of the reactor body is welded to the base platform using slotted steel, then the structural strength is improved, but the contact area between the bottom plate and base platform is reduced due to incomplete adherence
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary substance (bonding agent or adhesive layer) between the bottom plate of the reactor body and the base platform to fill gaps and achieve complete surface contact. This mediator enables the bottom plate to conform to the base platform surface, maximizing the contact area while maintaining structural strength through the combined effect of the bonding agent and welding.
2Strength
If the base platform is made of reinforced concrete to ensure structural strength, then the load-bearing capacity is improved, but the levelness and flatness of the surface are compromised due to cement contraction
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-treating the base platform surface (e.g., surface preparation, leveling) before installing the reactor body, and using a bonding agent that can compensate for surface irregularities. This preliminary preparation ensures that even with cement contraction, the final contact surface achieves the required levelness and flatness for complete adherence.
3Strength
If slotted steel is used to reinforce the bottom of the reactor tank, then the structural strength is improved, but the levelness and flatness of the lower surface are compromised due to welding assembly variations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by using a bonding agent specifically at the contact interface between the slotted steel and base platform, where surface irregularities occur. The bonding agent locally compensates for the unevenness caused by welding, allowing the slotted steel to maintain its structural strengthening function while achieving complete contact with the base platform through the adhesive layer.
4Stability of the object's composition
If the reactor tank is designed as a rigid body, then the structural stability is improved, but the vibration is intensified when the bottom plate fails to adhere completely to the base platform
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a bonding agent as an intermediary that not only achieves complete contact between the bottom plate and base platform to eliminate vibration amplification, but also introduces damping properties. The bonding layer acts as a vibration-dampening medium that reduces the transmission of vibrations from the base platform to the rigid reactor tank, thereby reducing harmful vibrations while maintaining structural stability.

AI summary
The invention provides a supporting method for increasing a contact area between a bottom plate of a reactor body and a base platform and a supporting structure thereof. The method comprises a step of filling binding agent into a space between the bottom plate of the reactor body and the base platform, so a bonding layer is formed therebeween. The contact area of the bottom plate of the reactor body and the base platform is increased because an upper surface of the bonding layer is bonded with the bottom plate of the reactor body and a lower surface of the bonding layer is bonded with the base platform, thereby vibration of the bottom plate of the reactor body is reduced.
