  • Patent number: 11486615
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flow balancer for an evaporator, comprising: a permeable assembly comprising at least one gas- and fluid-permeable plate and located above a heat exchange tube bundle of the evaporator; a sealing assembly disposed on a periphery of the permeable assembly and constructed to be nonpermeable to gas and fluid; and a mounting assembly constructed to support the permeable assembly and the sealing assembly. The present invention also relates to an evaporator comprising the flow balancer. The flow balancer of the present invention has the advantages of simple structure and convenient manufacturing and mounting, can balance the pressure distribution above the heat exchange tube bundle, and can achieve a more even distribution of the refrigerant liquid level in the length direction of the heat exchange tube bundle.

  • Patent number: 11262007
    Abstract: A flanged connecting assembly, which comprises: a first flange (210); a second flange (220) with a diameter greater than the diameter of the first flange; and a third flange (230), provided with a first portion (231) and a second portion (232) forming a step; wherein the first portion (231) is fitted to the first flange (210) through a first sealing element (310), and the second portion (232) is fitted to the second flange (220) through a second sealing element (320); and the first flange (210) and the second flange (220) are spaced from each other by a first distance. In this way, a gap formed under the fit of the three flanges can allow a used sealing element to be taken out vie the gap and/or a new sealing element to be assembled in via the gap.

  • Patent number: 10633226
    Abstract: A flange cover mounting and dismounting device, which comprises: a base part, comprising a fastener element with a fastener hole array, and being fastened on a flange cover mounting surface by the fastener hole array; and a jib arm assembly, having a first end being pivotally connected to the fastener element, and a second end being connected to the flange cover. The flange cover mounting and dismounting device can be fixed to the flange cover mounting surface having a corresponding fastener hole array, which is convenient for mounting and dismounting a flange cover. In addition, under most circumstances, the fastener hole array on the flange cover mounting surface is intrinsically owned by the devices, which originally can be applied to connect modules of each device or used for other applications.
