Definitions
- the present invention refers to a device and a system for cooling water in various types of industrial workings.
- the application of cooling circuits in industrial workings needs a system for continuously providing cold water.
- Object of the present invention is solving the above prior-art problems by providing a cooling device and system that can be simply realised, have an efficient cooling action and a reduced cost, since they allow the water cooling through a direct exchange between cooling fluid (for example air) and water.
- cooling fluid for example air
- FIG. 1 is a schematic side sectional view of a preferred embodiment of the device of the invention.
- Figure 2 is a schematic side view of a preferred embodiment of the system of the invention.
- Such device 1 is substantially composed of at least one support body 3 and of at least one return duct 5 for the cooled water 2: such duct 5 is placed inside the support body 3 in order to obtain a cooling chamber 7 in the space between the external support body 3 and the internal duct 5; the cooling chamber 7 is placed inside the support body 3 and is connected on one side to the return duct 5 of the cooled water 2 and on another side to an inlet 8 for the cooling fluid.
- the device 1 of the invention further comprises nebulising means 9 of the hot water 2 adapted to provide nebulised hot water 2 in the cooling chamber 7, in order to allow water 2 to be cooled when it gets in contact with the cooling fluid, that is commonly composed of air pushed inside the cooling chamber 7 by venting means 18 that will be described below.
- the nebulising means 9 are composed of at least one spiral-shaped pipe wound around the return duct 5 for water 2, in order to provide the longest path possible in which water 2 to be cooled must pass.
- the pipe 9 is equipped on its surface with a plurality of small holes adapted to allow nebulised hot water 2 to be ejected into the cooling chamber 7, as can be seend in Fig. 1.
- nebulising means 9 such as for example a common nebuliser for sprinkling (not shown) or the like.
- the support body 3 can be made in a vertical elongated shape, even if, also in this case, many variations are possible, such as for example an horizontal body or a vertically downwards squashed body whose diameter is greater than the one of the body 3 shown. Also the substantially cylindrical shape is obviously a non-limiting example.
- a system 13 for cooling water 2 in industrial workings (therefore connected to machines and systems (not shown) that need cooled water 2), in which such system 13 obviously comprises the device 1 of the invention and further comprises at least one tank 15 for collecting cooled water 2 connected to the cooling device 1.
- the system 13 comprises pumping means 16 (for example a common pump with related cock) for the cold water 2 delivered from the collecting tank 15 to downstream systems that need such water 2.
- Venting means 18 are further provided, connected to the collecting tank 15: such venting means 18 are adapted, on one hand, to create a vacuum into the collecting tank 15 and are adapted, on the other hand, to push the cooling fluid (air) into the cooling device 1 (through its inlet 8 connection with the tank 15) and are further adapted to push cooled water 2 both inside the cooling chamber 7 and outside the cooling device 1, having the necessary force to collect the cooled water 2 from the chamber 7 and to push it into the duct 5 that is also opened to the tank 15.
- Inlet means 11 are further provided for the hot water 2, coming from the working systems upstream, into the cooling device 1, in addition to supplying means 20 of further cold water 2 connected to the collecting tank 15 for filling-in/topping-up water 2 into the tank 15 when a level indicator 22 signals that such operation is necessary.
- command and control means 24 of the system 13 are provided, such as for example in the form of an electric panel.
- the device and system of the present invention can be realised in very different shapes and arrangements or parts.
- the characteristic of the invention is that it allows suitably nebulising and/or fragmenting, with one or more adequate holes or nozzles, the main hot water jet in a vented chamber.
- air and water flows must be as much as possible opposed, to realise an optimum cooling (that can go up to 40 °C of decrease of the water temperature) .
- vortex movements that can be suitable adjusted
- vortex movements that can be suitable adjusted
- the now cold water that contacted the air entered along the direction of arrows A, A' in Fig.
- the device 1 and system 13 of the present invention can obviously be employed in any type of industrial working that requires a temperature lowering of working water (or other liquids) to about 25 °C, such as, for example, but not in a limiting way, industrial applications like oleodynamic units or other oleodynamic circuits, dies, parts in contact with hot dies, shooting heads for machines for rubber or plastics, and the like .
