Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "a plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically and clearly defined. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model and should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0023] As Figure 1 , 2 shown, corresponding to an automatic soot blowing device for a calciner according to an embodiment of the present utility model, which is characterized in that it includes an automatic driving module 1, a special-shaped telescopic module 2, a blowing pipe gun module 3, a calciner 4, a high-temperature flue gas collection module 5 and a control module 7 connected in sequence.

[0024] The automatic driving module 1 includes a driving device 11 and a track 12, the special-shaped telescopic module 2 includes a telescopic device 21 and a roller device 22, the driving device 11 is movably fixed on the track 12 and can move horizontally along with the track 12, the telescopic device 21 is fixedly connected to the driving device 11, and the driving device 11 moves horizontally to drive the telescopic device 21 to move horizontally.

[0025] Specifically, the driving device 11 is a frame welded by I-beams. Wheels 112 and a stepper motor 111 are arranged on the frame. The wheels 112 are driven by the stepper motor 111 to move the driving device 11 on the track 12. A steam pipe 110 for conveying steam is arranged on the frame. The driving device 11 drives the steam pipe 110 to move under the drive of the stepper motor 111.

[0026] The injection pipe gun module 3 includes an injection pipe gun 31, a solenoid valve 32 and an exhaust hole 33 arranged on the injection pipe gun 31. An injection channel 41 is arranged on the calciner 4. A roller device 22 is arranged outside the combustion furnace 4 at a position corresponding to the injection channel 41. A flue 42 and a flue 43 are arranged inside the combustion furnace 4. A thermocouple sensor 6 is arranged in the flue 42. The injection pipe gun 31 can directly extend into the flue 42 inside the combustion furnace 4 through the injection channel 41. The injection pipe gun 31 is fixedly connected to the telescopic device 21 and communicated with the steam pipe 110 on the driving device 11. The solenoid valve 32 is arranged at one end of the injection pipe gun 31 close to the telescopic device 21, and the exhaust hole 33 is arranged at one end of the injection pipe gun 31 close to the injection channel 41 of the calciner 4.

[0027] Specifically, the telescopic device 21 is an electric push rod driven by a motor. The electric push rod is fixedly connected to the injection pipe gun 31. The injection pipe gun 31 longitudinally moves downward to the injection channel 41 under the action of the electric push rod. The injection pipe gun 31 rolls through the injection channel 41 and extends into the flue under the rolling of the roller device 22. The solenoid valve 32 of the injection pipe gun 31 is opened under the control of the control module 7. Steam enters the flue 42 inside through the exhaust hole 33 of the injection pipe gun 31 to clean the dust and ash adhering to the flue wall. A negative pressure system is arranged inside the flue 43. Under the action of the negative pressure system, the cleaned ash will flow to the flue 43 along with the flue gas flow 44.

[0028] As Figure 3 shown, the roller device 22 includes rollers 221 and a roller frame 222. A round hole 2221 is opened in the middle of the roller frame. There is a gap 223 left in the middle after the three rollers are assembled. The size of the round hole 2221 is larger than the size of the injection pipe gun 31. The size of the gap 223 fits the size of the injection pipe gun 31 to achieve a clearance fit, so that the injection pipe gun 31 can roll into the injection channel 41 of the calciner 4 through the gap 223 to purge the ash on the flue wall.

[0029] The high-temperature flue gas collection module 4 includes a dust collection system 51, a waste heat boiler 52, and a gas storage tank 53. The dust collection system 51 is arranged at the position of the flue 43 and communicated with the flue 43. The dust collection system 51, the waste heat boiler 52, and the gas storage tank 53 are sequentially connected through pipelines. The flue gas after being calcined by the calciner 4 enters the waste heat boiler 52 after being filtered by the dust collection system 51. The waste heat boiler 52 recovers and utilizes the waste heat of the flue gas to generate steam. The steam generated by the waste heat boiler 52 is transported to the gas storage tank 53 through a pipeline and stored in the gas storage tank 53. The gas storage tank 53 is communicated with the steam pipeline 110 on the driving device 11 through a pipeline. Specifically, the steam blown by the blowing pipe gun 31 is provided by the gas storage tank 53. The high-temperature dust generated by the cleaning of the blowing pipe gun 31 is collected by the dust collection system 51 along the flue gas flow direction 44 under the action of the negative pressure system of the flue 43, solving the problems of unorganized emission and on-site dust.

[0030] During operation, the thermocouple sensor 6 arranged in the flue 42 senses that the temperature of the flue 42 reaches the purging temperature, and feeds back a signal to the control module 7. The control module 7 transmits the received signal to the driving device 11. The driving device 11 drives the telescopic device 21 to move horizontally on the track 21. After moving to the position of the blowing channel 41 under the drive of the stepping motor 111, the telescopic device 21 expands and contracts to drive the blowing pipe gun 31 to move longitudinally towards the blowing channel 41. The blowing pipe gun 31 extends into the interior of the flue 42 through the blowing channel 41 under the rolling of the roller device 22. The solenoid valve 32 of the blowing pipe gun 31 is opened under the control of the control module 7. Steam cleans the petroleum coke dust and ash adhering to the flue wall inside the flue 42 through the exhaust holes 33 of the blowing pipe gun 31. The high-temperature dust generated by the cleaning falls under the action of gravity and is collected by the dust collection system 51. Specifically, the flue gas after being calcined by the calciner 4 enters the waste heat boiler 52 through the dust collection system 51. The waste heat boiler 52 recovers and utilizes the waste heat of the flue gas to generate steam. The generated steam is transported to the gas storage tank 53 for storage by the waste heat boiler 52 through a pipeline. When the automatic soot blowing device of the calciner starts to work, the steam flows from the gas storage tank 53 to the steam pipeline 110 on the driving device 11, and then flows from the steam pipeline 110 to the blowing pipe gun 32, and sprays out towards the dust on the flue wall when the solenoid valve 32 of the blowing pipe gun 31 is opened.

[0031] The above embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the patent of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several deformations and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present utility model should be subject to the appended claims.
