Description

  The present invention relates to a nanobubble generator that generates nanobubbles (ultrafine bubbles) in a liquid, and more particularly to a ring with a hole that promotes the refinement of bubbles.

  For the generation of nanobubbles, for example, water and air are sent from a pressure pump to a microbubble (fine bubble) nozzle and mixed under pressure, and physical stimulation is separately applied by ultrasonic waves. The method of crushing is known. However, in a nanobubble generating device that employs such a method, each device constituting the device is complicated, and the energy efficiency of nanobubble generation is low. Therefore, there is a problem that the cost-effectiveness related to the generation of nanobubbles is not satisfactory.

  In response to this problem, the nanobubble generating device disclosed in Patent Document 1 is a liquid flow in which an impeller having a plurality of blades on a circular substrate sucks a gas together with a liquid by rotation of a rotary drive shaft and contains the gas in a tubular casing. Is generated. At the same time, this liquid flow is passed through the water outlet to form a straight liquid flow, and the liquid flow is discharged in a direction perpendicular to the rotation surface of the impeller blades, and the straight liquid flow is sheared by the impeller blades. This is to generate fine bubbles.

JP 2009-39600 A

However, the generation of ultrafine bubbles (nanobubbles) by the nanobubble generator disclosed in Patent Document 1 gives the microbubbles a mechanical stimulus that repeatedly shears the fine bubbles (microbubbles) generated in the above process. Is generated. Therefore, the rotation direction of the impeller needs to be rotated in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the impeller of a normal submerged turbofan (or submersible pump) that is generally distributed.
In addition, while shearing the straight liquid flow of the gas-liquid mixture with the impeller blades, it is further scraped to increase the time for staying in the blades, thereby realizing repeated shearing. That is, there is no effect of directly releasing the gas-liquid mixed fluid accumulated in the blades in the circumferential direction. Therefore, the pressure in the vicinity of the rotation center is increased (discharged) outward. As a result, if the pressure in the vicinity of the rotation center increases, the straight liquid flow flowing in from the water flow port also pushes back, and it is necessary to delicately control the opposite pressure, and the efficiency of nanobubble generation cannot be improved. Remain.

  Further, the nanobubble generator disclosed in Patent Document 1 requires at least two impellers of a suction fin and an impeller, and may generate dust from the upper and lower bearings of the rotating shaft to which these are attached. In addition, it is necessary to rotate in the direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the impeller of a submerged pump that is generally in circulation, and it is difficult to divert these in the manufacture of the device. Therefore, there remains a problem that the cost for manufacturing the apparatus cannot be reduced.

A coil (not shown) for rotating the impeller 13 is provided outside the main casing 10.

  As shown in FIG. 1A, the impeller 13 of the nanobubble generating device 1 is disposed in the inner space of the casing formed by the main body casing 10 and the upper cover casing 11 and inside the shear ring 14.

The nanobubble generating device 1 rotates the impeller 13 and takes in the gas-liquid mixed fluid containing microbubbles (fine bubbles) from the suction port of the suction nozzle 12 into the first space S1. After that, bubbles existing in the gas-liquid mixed fluid flowing into the first space are sheared by the rotating impeller 13 and the shearing ring 14 to form nanobubbles (ultrafine bubbles).

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the impeller 13. FIG. 2A is a top view of the impeller 13, and FIG. 2B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA of the impeller 13 shown in FIG.
The impeller 13 includes an annular lid portion 131 provided with an opening 130, a cylindrical rotor case portion 132 in which a rotor (not shown) is provided, and four blades 13a having a cross-sectional arc shape. Is done. The blades 13 a are tightly attached by a lid portion 131 and a rotor case portion 132 that are arranged coaxially. Thereby, the rotational driving force by the coil (not shown) arranged outside the main body casing 10 and the rotor (not shown) arranged inside the rotor case part 132 is transmitted to the blade 13a.

  As shown in FIG. 2 (a), the blade 13a closely attached by the lid portion 131 and the rotor case portion 132 has an opening portion on one side of two sides where a plane and a curved surface intersect. It arrange | positions so that the edge of 130 may be touched. Furthermore, from the position where one side of the blade 13a is in contact with the opening 130 as a starting point, the other side is in contact with the normal line outward from the position rotated 90 [deg.] Counterclockwise on this edge. Placed in. In addition to the number of blades 13a, the arrangement method of the blades 13a, for example, the angle and orientation can be changed according to factors such as the shape and size of the blades and the viscosity of the fluid to be sucked.

  A space surrounded by the side surface of the blade 13a, the lower bottom surface of the lid portion 131, the upper bottom surface of the rotor case portion 132, and the inner peripheral side wall of the shear ring 14 constitutes a part of the first space S1. For example, the first gas-liquid mixed fluid that flows into the first space S1 and passes through the opening 130 (the arrow dotted line x in FIG. 2B) is urged by the rotational force of the impeller 13, and FIG. b) It flows as indicated by the dotted line y in the arrow. Thereafter, the inner wall of the shear ring 14 is reached.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the shear ring 14. 3A is a top view of the shear ring 14, and FIG. 38B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB of the shear ring 14 shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3A, the shear ring 14 is formed to include an upper collar portion 141, a lower collar portion 142, and a side wall portion 143 that are each formed in an annular shape and arranged in a coaxial core shape. It is a ring. A plurality of hole portions 145 for communicating the first space S1 and the second space S2 are provided in the side wall portion 143 of the shear ring 14. The hole 145 has, for example, a circular shape with a diameter of 5 [mm], and is evenly arranged on the wall surface of the side wall 143. In addition, the shape and size of the hole part 145, a deployment space | interval, etc. can be set arbitrarily.

  As shown in FIG. 3B, the upper collar portion 141 of the shear ring 14 is provided so as to extend a predetermined length from the upper end portion of the side wall portion 143 toward the outer side. Further, as shown in FIG. 3B, the lower collar portion 142 of the shear ring 14 has a portion extending from the lower end portion of the side wall portion 143 by a predetermined length in the outer direction and a predetermined length in the inner direction. Deployed to produce a site that only extends. A concave portion 146 is formed on the upper bottom surface of the portion extending inward of the lower collar portion 142 so as to be connected to a part of the edge shape in accordance with the interval between the hole portions 145 provided in the side wall portion 143. Is done. In addition, this recessed part 146 opposes one of the arch-shaped bottom faces of the blade | wing 13a in the state which provided the predetermined clearance gap (for example, 1.5 [mm]). A portion extending in the inner direction with respect to the side wall portion 143 is referred to as a first flange portion, and a portion extending in the outer direction is referred to as a second flange portion.

  The upper bottom surface of the upper collar 141 is formed in a shape that is in close contact with a predetermined portion of the main casing 10 when the shear ring 14 is mounted in the casing (see FIG. 1A). The lower bottom surface of the lower collar 142 is formed in a shape that is in close contact with a predetermined portion of the upper lid casing 11 (see FIG. 1A). The second collar part of each of the upper collar part 141 and the lower collar part 142 is formed in a shape in close contact with a predetermined part of the inner wall of the main body casing 10 (see FIG. 1A). By arranging the shear ring 14 formed in such a shape in the internal space of the casing, the first space S1 and the second space S2 are formed. Moreover, it can prevent that the shear ring 14 and the impeller 13 rotate together by making it closely contact with the wall surface of the internal space of a casing.

  FIG. 4 is a chart for explaining a gas-liquid mixed fluid containing microbubbles taken into the first space S1. The table shown in FIG. 4 shows the generation of ultra-pure water as micro-bubble water using micro-bubble generators that are generally widely distributed, and the bubbles contained in the unit amount (10 [cc]) according to the number of generations. The measurement result of size and the number is shown. In this measurement, a Lion particle counter is used. Specific configuration of the measuring device is a particle counter (model: KL-22), a syringe sampler (model: KZ-30S), and a printer (model: KP-05L).

The table shown in FIG. 4 shows that microbubble water was generated a total of 5 times under the same conditions, and the bubble size was 0.2 [μm], 0.3 [μm], and 0.5 [μm] for each generation. ], 1.0 [μm], and 2.0 [μm] are the measurement results of the number per 10 [cc]. As shown in FIG. 4, the average value of each time from the first time to the fifth time is 853 when the bubble size is 0.2 [μm], 268 when the bubble size is 0.3 [μm], and 0.5 [μm]. ] Is 27, 1.0 [μm] is 4, and 2.0 [μm] is 331.
It can be seen that the microbubble water generated in this manner includes nanobubbles in addition to microbubbles.

In the nanobubble generating device 1 of the present embodiment, a gas-liquid mixed fluid (for example, microbubble water) generated in advance is taken into the first space S1, and the bubbles present in the taken microbubble water are sheared. By shearing the bubbles, the total number of nanobubbles per unit amount is increased. That is, the ratio of nanobubbles in the entire bubbles can be increased. In addition, the nanobubbles inherent in the microbubble water can be made into finer nanobubbles.
Hereinafter, details of the shearing process by the impeller 13 and the shear ring 14 will be described.

FIG. 5 shows how the gas-liquid mixed fluid bubbles taken into the first space S1 are subjected to a shearing process by the impeller 13 and the shear ring 14 until the gas-liquid mixed fluid after bubble shearing flows into the second space S2. It is the figure shown typically. An arrow dotted line shown in FIG. 5 shows an example of a liquid flow path of the gas-liquid mixed fluid that flows in through the opening 130.
As the impeller 13 rotates, the pressure in the first space S1 is relatively higher than the pressure in the second space S2. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, the gas-liquid mixed fluid urged by the rotational force of the impeller 13 in the first space S1 passes through the hole 145 and smoothly flows into the second space S2. Further, the side wall portion 143 of the shear ring 14 prevents passage of the gas-liquid mixed fluid except for the hole portion 145. Therefore, the pressure applied to the gas-liquid mixed fluid that has reached the hole 145 is relatively higher than the pressure applied to the other gas-liquid mixed fluid in the first space S1. Thereby, the flow velocity when the gas-liquid mixed fluid after bubble shearing passes through the hole 145 is increased, and the flow into the second space S2 can be performed more smoothly.
In addition, bubbles existing in the gas-liquid mixed fluid that has reached the hole portion 145 in a state where a relatively high pressure is applied to the blade 13 a moving so as to cut off the fluid along the inner wall of the shear ring 14. It is sheared by the end and the edge of the hole 145. In this way, the bubbles are sheared and refined.
Further, a pressure at the time of shearing is further applied to the bubbles present in the gas-liquid mixed fluid that has reached the hole 145. Therefore, by applying a physical stimulus (for example, shearing) to the bubbles, the crushing of the bubbles can be further promoted.

FIG. 6 is a view for explaining a shearing process by the impeller 13 and the recess 146 of the shear ring 14. An arrow dotted line shown in FIG. 6 shows an example of a liquid flow path of the gas-liquid mixed fluid flowing in through the opening 130.
As described with reference to FIG. 5, the impeller 13 rotates to increase the pressure in the first space S1 relative to the pressure in the second space S2. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, the gas-liquid mixed fluid biased by the rotational force of the impeller 13 in the first space S <b> 1 smoothly flows from the recess 146 through the hole 145 into the second space S <b> 2. Further, the lower collar part 142 which is the first collar part prevents passage of the gas-liquid mixed fluid through the hole part 145 except for the concave part 146. Therefore, the pressure applied to the gas-liquid mixed fluid that has reached the recess 146 is relatively higher than the pressure applied to other gas-liquid mixed fluid in the first space S1. Thereby, the flow velocity when the gas-liquid mixed fluid after bubble shearing passes through the hole 145 is increased, and the flow into the second space S2 can be performed more smoothly.
In addition, bubbles existing in the gas-liquid mixed fluid that has reached the recess 146 in a state where a relatively high pressure is applied so as to cut off the fluid along the upper bottom surface of the lower collar 142 where the recess 146 is formed. Is sheared by the end of the blade 13 a moving to the edge of the concave portion 146. In this way, the bubbles are sheared and refined. In addition, the edge part of the blade | wing 13a in this case is an edge part of the bow-shaped bottom face of the blade | wing 13a facing the recessed part 146. FIG.
Further, a pressure at the time of shearing is further applied to the bubbles present in the gas-liquid mixed fluid that has reached the recess 146. Therefore, by applying a physical stimulus (for example, shearing) to the bubbles, the crushing of the bubbles can be further promoted.

  In this manner, in addition to the shearing of the bubbles by the end of the side surface of the blade 13a and the edge of the hole 145, the shearing of the bubble by the end of the bottom surface of the blade 13a and the edge of the recess 146 is also performed. Therefore, nanobubbles can be generated more efficiently.

  FIG. 7 is a chart for explaining the result of verifying the difference in the number of nanobubbles generated depending on whether or not the shear ring 14 is attached in the nanobubble generator 1 of the present embodiment. FIG. 7A shows the measurement result of the number of bubbles generated for each bubble size according to the number of rotations of the impeller 13 per unit time when the nanobubble generator 1 is not equipped with the shear ring 14. FIG. 7B shows a measurement result of the number of bubbles generated for each bubble size according to the number of rotations of the impeller 13 per unit time when the shear ring 14 is attached to the nanobubble generator 1. In both cases, the microbubble water already described with reference to FIG. 4 is used, and the bubble size of 1.0 [μm] or less is measured using the above-described particle counter made of Lion.

The table shown in FIG. 7A shows that the bubble sizes are 0.2 [μm], 0.3 [μm], 0..., Depending on the number of rotations per unit time of the impeller 13 when the shear ring 14 is not attached. It is the result of measuring the number per 10 [cc] of 5 [μm] and 1.0 [μm].
When the measurement results shown in the table of FIG. 7A are compared with the measurement results shown in the table of FIG. 4, each of the bubble sizes of 0.2 [μm], 0.3 [μm], and 0.5 [μm] is obtained. It can be seen that the number of measured bubbles has increased.

The table shown in FIG. 7B shows the bubble sizes of 0.2 [μm], 0.3 [μm], and 0.5 [μm] according to the number of rotations per unit time of the impeller 13 when the shear ring 14 is attached. , 1.0 [μm] per 10 [cc].
When the measurement results shown in the table of FIG. 7A are compared with the measurement results shown in the table of FIG. 7B, the bubble size is 0.2 [μm] regardless of the number of rotations of the impeller 13 per unit time. , 0.3 [μm], and 0.5 [μm], it can be seen that the number of measured bubbles increases. By attaching the shear ring 14 to the nanobubble generating device 1, the total number of nanobubbles generated as a whole is increased by 16 [%] on average as compared with the case where the shear ring 14 is not attached.

  8A, 8B, and 9 are graphs of the verification results shown in FIG. 7 for each bubble size. FIG. 8A is a graph showing the difference depending on the presence or absence of the shear ring 14 for a bubble size of 0.2 [μm]. FIG. 8B is a graph showing the difference depending on whether or not the shear ring 14 is attached for a bubble size of 0.3 [μm]. FIG. 9 is a graph showing the difference depending on whether or not the shear ring 14 is attached for a bubble size of 0.5 [μm]. The vertical axis of each graph indicates the number of bubbles per 10 [cc], and the horizontal axis indicates the number of rotations of the impeller 13 per unit time.

  From each graph, shearing is performed regardless of the rotation speed per unit time of the impeller 13 regardless of the bubble size 0.2 [μm], the bubble size 0.3 [μm], and the bubble size 0.5 [μm]. It can be seen that the number of nanobubbles generated is increased when the ring 14 is attached.

  As described above, the nanobubble generating device 1 of the present embodiment takes in the microbubble water generated in advance into the first space S1, and shears the air bubbles contained in the taken microbubble water by the impeller 13 and the shear ring 14. To do. Thereby, the number of nanobubbles contained per unit amount can be increased. Furthermore, the nanobubbles inherent in the microbubble water can be sheared to form finer nanobubbles.

  Further, in the nanobubble generator 1 of the present embodiment, the first space S1 and the second space S2 are formed by the shear ring 14. As a result, the gas-liquid mixed fluid that has flowed into the first space due to the rotation of the impeller 13 is sheared from the air bubbles contained therein and then discharged from the discharge nozzle 15 toward the outside of the casing through the second space S. The liquid flow can be made smooth. Therefore, nanobubbles can be generated efficiently.

  In addition, as a part of the configuration of the nanobubble generating device 1 of the present embodiment, a generally-used overflow pump can be employed. Thereby, reduction of apparatus manufacturing cost can be aimed at.

In addition, the shear ring 14 of this embodiment has a hole 145 and a recess 146. Therefore, in addition to the shearing of the bubbles by the edge of the side surface of the blade 13a and the edge of the hole 145, the shearing of the bubble by the edge of the bottom surface of the blade 13a and the edge of the recess 146 is also performed. As a result, nanobubbles can be generated more efficiently.
In addition, a pressure at the time of shearing is further applied to the bubbles existing in the gas-liquid mixed fluid that has reached the hole 145 and the recess 146. Therefore, by applying physical stimulation (for example, shearing) to the bubbles, crushing of the bubbles is promoted, and more nanobubbles can be efficiently generated.
