本考案は圧縮空気中の水分を除去する気液分離器に関す
る。[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a gas-liquid separator for removing moisture from compressed air.
実開昭和50−3915涛公報には、筐体内を入口に連
通ずる第1室と、第1室と出口とに連通ずる第2室に分
け、第2室に渦流管(ポルテックス・チューブ)の渦管
を位置させ、渦流管の噴射流入口を第1室に開口し、渦
流管の熱風出口を大気に連通し、渦流管の冷風出口を第
1室を通る熱交換通路を通して大気に連通し、筐体内の
底部に復水排出弁を配置した気液分離器が示されている
。Publication No. 3915-3915 states that the interior of the housing is divided into a first chamber communicating with the inlet and a second chamber communicating with the first chamber and the outlet, and a vortex tube (portex tube) is installed in the second chamber. positioning the vortex tube, opening the injection inlet of the vortex tube into the first chamber, communicating the hot air outlet of the vortex tube with the atmosphere, and communicating the cold air outlet of the vortex tube with the atmosphere through a heat exchange passage passing through the first chamber; , a gas-liquid separator is shown with a condensate discharge valve located at the bottom within the housing.
この分離器に流入する圧縮空気は、その一部が渦流管の
作用で冷風と熱風に分離し、残余の圧縮空気を第1室を
通る時に冷風で冷却して含有水分を凝結させて分離し、
更に第2室を通る時に熱風で渦流管の渦管を通して加熱
し、乾燥空気が出口から出てくる様にしたものである。A part of the compressed air flowing into this separator is separated into cold air and hot air by the action of the vortex tube, and the remaining compressed air is cooled by cold air as it passes through the first chamber, condensing the moisture contained in it, and separating it. ,
Further, when passing through the second chamber, the hot air is heated through the vortex tube of the vortex tube, so that dry air comes out from the outlet.
ところが、この分離器では次の様な欠点がある。However, this separator has the following drawbacks.
渦流管の熱風出口と冷風出口は大気に連通し、圧縮空気
の一部は常時大気中に放出されているので、空気消費量
が多い。The hot air outlet and cold air outlet of the vortex tube communicate with the atmosphere, and a portion of the compressed air is constantly released into the atmosphere, resulting in a large amount of air consumption.
圧縮空気を使用しない時でも、渦流管を通って空気が流
れ続けるので圧縮空気が浪費されるばかりでなく、冷却
作用が続くので筐体内で凍結が起きる。Even when compressed air is not used, air continues to flow through the vortex tube, which not only wastes the compressed air, but also causes freezing within the housing as the cooling action continues.
本考案の目的は空気消費量が少なく、凍結を起こさない
渦流管を備えた気液分離器を得ることにある。The purpose of the present invention is to provide a gas-liquid separator with a swirl tube that consumes less air and does not cause freezing.
本考案の気液分離器の構成は次の通りである。The configuration of the gas-liquid separator of the present invention is as follows.
気液分離器内を入口に連通ずる第1室と、第1室と出口
とに連通ずる第2室とに分ける。The interior of the gas-liquid separator is divided into a first chamber communicating with the inlet and a second chamber communicating with the first chamber and the outlet.
第2室と出口の間に絞りを設ける。A diaphragm is provided between the second chamber and the outlet.
第2室内に渦流管の渦管を位置させる。A vortex tube of the vortex tube is located in the second chamber.
渦流管の噴射流入口を第1室に開口させる。A jet inlet of the vortex tube is opened into the first chamber.
渦流管の熱風出口を絞りの下流の出口側に連通させる。The hot air outlet of the vortex tube is communicated with the downstream outlet side of the throttle.
渦流管の冷風出口を高熱伝導率の材料で作った通路で第
1室を通って絞りの下流の出口側に連通させる。The cold air outlet of the swirl tube is communicated with the downstream outlet side of the throttle through the first chamber by a passage made of a material with high thermal conductivity.
上記第2室は渦流管の噴射流入口側の端部で第1室に連
通させ、熱風出口側の端部で出口に連通させる。The second chamber communicates with the first chamber at the end on the injection inlet side of the vortex tube, and communicates with the outlet at the end on the hot air outlet side.
更に気液分離器内の底部に復水排出弁を配置する。Additionally, a condensate discharge valve is placed at the bottom of the gas-liquid separator.
本考案の気液分離器は次の様な作用をする。The gas-liquid separator of the present invention operates as follows.
渦流管の熱風出口と冷風出口を絞りの下流の出口側に連
通したので、出口側で圧縮空気が使用され、気液分離器
内を圧縮空気が流れる時にのみ、絞りの下流側は圧力降
下するので渦流管内に空気が流れる。Since the hot air outlet and cold air outlet of the vortex tube are connected to the outlet side downstream of the throttle, compressed air is used on the outlet side, and the pressure drops downstream of the throttle only when the compressed air flows through the gas-liquid separator. Therefore, air flows inside the vortex tube.
従って、渦流管は空気の使用時以外には作動せず、また
作られた熱風と冷風は出口側に流れるので圧縮空気を大
気中へ無駄に放出せず、浪費しない。Therefore, the vortex tube does not operate except when air is used, and the hot air and cold air produced flow to the outlet side, so compressed air is not wasted or released into the atmosphere.
また、圧縮空気を使用しない時に該器内に溜った同じ空
気を冷却し続けることがないから、凍結を起こさない。Furthermore, since the same air accumulated in the container is not continuously cooled when compressed air is not used, freezing does not occur.
