Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a spherical cyclone. More specifically, the present invention relates to a spherical cyclone that includes an ozonizer.

(Prior Art and Problems to be Solved by the Invention) A cyclone is generally known as a device that separates solid and/or liquid fine particles dispersed in a fluid into a clear fluid and fine particles.

As shown in FIG. 4, a normal cyclone has a main body 101 and a main body 101 for separating fluid and particles.
An introduction tube 10 into which a fluid containing particles is introduced.
2, a main body 102, a discharge pipe 103 for leading out the clarified fluid inside the main body 101, and a discharge pipe 104 for discharging the fine particles separated within the main body to the outside of the main body 101.

The main body 101 consists of a cylindrical upper part 101a and a conical lower part 101b, and includes an introduction pipe 102.
The fluid introduced further descends while swirling along the inner wall of the upper part 101a, and during this time, the fine particles move toward the wall of the upper part 101a of the main body due to the centripetal force.
separated. The separated fine particles descend from the upper part 101a to the lower part 101b along the wall surface,
It passes through the discharge gap 104 and is discharged from the main body 101 to the outside. The fluid that has been clarified by separating fine particles gradually reduces its swirl diameter in the lower part 101b, generates an upward flow at the center while increasing the flow velocity, and is led out from the main body 101 through the outlet pipe 103.

In response, the inventor of the present invention made the cyclone body spherical, eliminating the use of the cylindrical and conical portions, thereby eliminating the need for a normal cyclone, which would increase the size of the device due to its vertically elongated shape. Upper 10
We have overcome the disadvantages of 1a having a cylindrical shape, resulting in a large pressure loss and the need for a blower with a large air volume, and have devised a compact spherical cyclone that functions with a blower with a small pressure loss and small air volume.

However, in order to use this spherical cyclone to separate particulates and at the same time remove odor and sterilize, it is necessary to bring the processing fluid into contact with ozone gas in advance. The ozone gas was brought into contact with ozone gas generated by an ozonizer in advance in an inlet pipe, and then introduced into the cyclone body and separated. For this reason, the ozonizer and cyclone were installed separately, and an ozone gas introduction part was provided in the middle of the introduction pipe, making the equipment complicated and large.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The inventor of the present invention has earnestly studied the possibility of reducing the size of the equipment and reducing the equipment cost by integrating the ozonizer with the cyclone body and converting multiple equipment into a single unit. As a result, we completed the following idea.

That is, the cyclone body or interior is made of glass,
By constructing the ozonizer from electrically insulating materials such as enamel or plastic, the ozonizer can be installed inside the cyclone body, and dry oxygen or clean air introduced through an inlet separate from the treatment fluid inlet pipe can be used as an ozonizer. The ozone gas generated was then efficiently brought into contact with the treatment fluid introduced into the cyclone body.

(Example) An example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. FIG. 1 of the drawings is a front sectional view showing an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a plan view showing an embodiment of the present invention. Further, FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram of a case where a spray nozzle is provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in Figures 1 and 2 of the drawings, the spherical cyclone A includes a spherical main body 1 that separates fluid and particles, and an introduction pipe 2 that introduces the processing fluid into the main body.
, an outlet pipe 3 for guiding the clarified fluid in the main body 1 to the outside of the main body, a discharge pipe 4 for discharging particulates separated from the fluid in the main body to the outside of the main body, and an ozone generation device devised in the present application. An ozonizer 5 and a diffusion means 6 for efficiently mixing and contacting the generated ozone with the introduced fluid are installed above the fluid introduction pipe around the fluid outlet pipe in the upper part of the cyclone body 1, and the ozonizer 5 and the diffusion means 6 for efficiently mixing and contacting the generated ozone with the introduced fluid are installed above the fluid introduction pipe around the fluid outlet pipe in the upper part of the cyclone body 1. A clean air inlet 7 is provided above the central portion of the ozonizer.

The main body 1 may have a structure that can be divided into two parts near the center for easy repair, remodeling, cleaning, etc., and is composed of an upper part 1a and a lower part 1b.
A ring-shaped flange portion 1c protruding outward is formed at the open end of the upper portion 1a of the lower portion 1b.
A ring-shaped flange portion 1d protruding outward is also formed at the open end portion to be joined to the upper portion 1.
To complete the spherical cyclone by joining and integrating the flange part 1c of the upper part 1a and the lower part 1b.
A ring-shaped sealing material is inserted between the flange portion 1d of the lower portion 1b and fixed with a fixing device such as a bolt or a nut.

The introduction pipe 2 and the introduction port 7 are provided along the tangential direction on the outer peripheral surface of the upper part 1a of the main body 1 so that the fluid flows along the inner wall within the main body, and the outlet pipe 3 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the upper part 1a of the main body 1. It is provided to extend from the top of 1a to a position protruding from the joint flange in the center direction of main body 1. Further, the discharge pipe 4 is provided at the bottom of the lower part 1b of the main body 1, and a valve 8 is provided below the discharge pipe 4.

The ozonization part is provided near the top of the main body 1, above the inlet pipe 2, surrounds the outlet pipe 3, and includes an ozonizer 5 fixed at a position along the inner wall of the top of the cyclone main body, and a dried oxygen Alternatively, it is made up of an inlet 7 for introducing clean air, and a diffusion means 6 equipped with vanes rotatably mounted around the outlet pipe 3 to efficiently disperse and contact the generated ozone gas with the introduced fluid.

This ozonization part is made of an insulating material that can withstand the high voltage supplied to the ozonizer 5 and the high concentration ozone gas generated, and is preferably made of glass, enamel, or plastic, or is coated with It is necessary that the

To explain the operation and effect of this spherical cyclone A, fluid containing fine particles introduced into the main body 1 from the introduction pipe 2 by a blower etc.
The dried oxygen or clean air introduced into the cyclone is ozonized by the ozonizer 5, and then brought into sufficiently uniform contact with the ozone gas dispersed by the diffusion means 6, so that it is formed in a spiral shape along the inner wall of the main body 1. A spiral spiral flow descends from the upper part 1a to the lower part 1b in the main body 1 while swirling around the body 1, and during this time, a centripetal force acts on the ozonated particles, causing them to move from the fluid in the main body 1 toward the wall. It will be separated from the fluid. The separated fine particles move along the wall of the main body 1 along the fluid flow to the bottom, and are discharged from the main body 1 through the discharge pipe 4 and the valve 8. The spiral spiral flow of the introduced fluid becomes larger as it goes from the introduction pipe 2 to the center, and the flow velocity decreases, but after passing the center, the flow velocity increases again and an upward flow occurs at the center. It then enters the entrance of the outlet pipe 3, ascends the outlet pipe 3, and is led out of the main body 1.

The swirling spiral flow described above comes into contact with the swirling ozone gas at the same time as it flows into the main body 1, and the flow velocity changes depending on the shape of the main body 1, and the flow passes through the swirl while minimizing pressure loss. It is possible to achieve the same treatment effect as when using a conventional cyclone, and more effective odor removal and sterilization treatment as well as particulate separation than a normal cyclone or a spherical cyclone treatment using a fluid that does not come in contact with ozone gas.

Next, to explain the case where the spherical cyclone A is provided with a spray nozzle, as shown in FIG. is provided. The liquid sprayed from the spray nozzle 9 comes into contact with the ozonated fluid, especially gas, and collides with and contacts unseparated fine particles dispersed in the gas, increasing the diameter of the fine particles and increasing their weight. This makes separation from gas easier and more thorough.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments,
For example, welding or the like may be used to fix the upper part 1a and lower part 1b of the main body 1.

(Effects of the invention) The invention has the following effects due to the above configuration.

By forming the cyclone body into a spherical shape and attaching an ozonizer to the top to generate ozone gas in advance within the cyclone, equipment can be unified.
It is compact and enables efficient cyclone treatment with low pressure loss.Furthermore, it can perform deodorization and sterilization treatments that cannot be achieved with normal cyclone treatment, making it extremely economical and has a wide range of applications.
