Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of material conveying, in particular to a pneumatic conveying device for solid materials. Background Art
[0002] In the actual production and living process, such as in the dry denitration technology, solid conveying problems are often encountered. The solids include powders, granules, etc. The common conveying methods mainly include mechanical conveying and pneumatic conveying. When the conveying gas passes through the feeding area, due to the relatively high air pressure at the outlet of the fan, a positive pressure blockage will be formed at the position of the blanking port, resulting in poor blanking and affecting the blanking effect; when there is less material in the silo, reverse air flow will occur, which not only causes poor feeding but also causes dust in the silo, affecting the working environment. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] To solve the problems of the prior art, the utility model provides a pneumatic conveying device for solid materials, which ensures smooth, uniform and continuous blanking and prevents dust caused by reverse air flow.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0017] Figure 1 is the front view of the solid material pneumatic conveying device of the utility model;
[0018] Figure 2 is the top view of the solid material pneumatic conveying device of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0019] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages to be solved by the utility model clearer, the following will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0020] An embodiment of the utility model provides a solid material pneumatic conveying device, as Figure 1-2 shown, which includes a material bin 1. A blanking port 2 is arranged at the bottom of the material bin 1. An air lock 3 is arranged at the bottom end of the blanking port 2. The bottom end of the air lock 3 is communicated with a blowing pipe 4. One end of the blowing pipe 4 is used to be connected to a boiler, and the other end is used to be connected to a material blowing fan 5, for example, connected to the material blowing fan 5 through a connecting pipe 22.
[0021] The rotary feeder is usually used in the pneumatic output system. For the pressure output system or the negative pressure output system, the rotary feeder can supply materials to the conveying pipe evenly and continuously, so as to ensure that the gas-solid ratio in the pneumatic output pipe is relatively stable, enabling the pneumatic conveying to work properly. At the same time, the rotary feeder can also cut off the air pressure between its upper and lower parts to play a role in air locking.
[0022] In the utility model, a rotary feeder is arranged at the blanking port at the bottom of the silo for blanking, ensuring smooth, even and continuous blanking. At the same time, the air pressure between the upper and lower parts of the rotary feeder is cut off, preventing dust from being raised due to backwind. At the same time, the equipment has a simple structure, a small floor area, is easy to operate, and has strong practicability, achieving good results in actual engineering applications.
[0023] As an improvement of the utility model, the bottom end of the rotary feeder 3 is connected to the blowing pipe 4 through a negative pressure acceleration chamber 6. The negative pressure acceleration chamber 6 is of a barrel-shaped structure, and its lower cross-section is smaller than the upper cross-section, such as an inverted frustum-shaped structure or a prismatic frustum-shaped structure, etc. According to Bernoulli's principle, the greater the flow velocity, the smaller the pressure. Because the lower cross-section of the negative pressure acceleration chamber 6 is smaller than the upper cross-section, the air flow velocity is greater in the lower part and smaller in the upper part, and the air pressure in the lower part is less than that in the upper part, forming a negative pressure state from top to bottom.
[0024] When conveying materials, the materials in the upper silo, after being fed through the rotary feeder 3, fall into the feeding port of the negative pressure acceleration chamber 6. Under the action of negative pressure, they automatically enter the blowing pipe 4 downward. The entire blanking area is in a negative pressure state, and the materials are automatically sucked by negative pressure to ensure smooth blanking and prevent blockage.
[0025] A negative pressure air supplement port 7 is arranged on the side wall of the negative pressure acceleration chamber 6. The negative pressure air supplement port 7 provides more external gas for the blowing pipe to ensure the gas conveying flow rate. The included angle between the air inlet direction of the negative pressure air supplement port 7 and the air flow direction of the negative pressure acceleration chamber 6 is less than 90°, which is convenient for smooth air supplement.
[0026] At the same time, the negative pressure air supplement port 7 can also be connected to a dust suction pipe, and the dust suction pipe can also be connected to various enlarged suction devices, which are placed near the silo 1 to suck dust from the nearby area and purify and improve the surrounding working environment.
[0027] Some materials will have problems such as damp condensation and caking inside the silo, resulting in unsmooth blanking. To solve this problem, a heater 8, a heat preservation layer and a first temperature sensor 9 are arranged on the silo 1 in the utility model. The silo 1 can be ensured to be within the set range. By setting the upper and lower temperature limits, the start and stop of the heater 8 are automatically controlled. When the temperature reaches the set upper limit, the heater 8 is turned off; when the temperature is lower than the set lower limit, the heater 8 is turned on.
[0028] Furthermore, a vibrator 10 is provided on the outer wall of the silo 1, and the vibrator 10 is arranged on a support 11 located on the outer wall of the silo 1. Through the vibration of the vibrator 10, it is possible to prevent materials from sticking to the inner wall of the silo.
[0029] The silo 1 is provided with a level switch 12. The material quantity in the silo is detected by the level switch. When it is lower than the set quantity, an alarm is given to prompt feeding or the external feeding device is controlled to automatically feed.
[0030] In pneumatic conveying, generally compressed air, a high-pressure centrifugal fan or a Roots blower is used to supply air as the conveying fluid. The power consumption of such conveying equipment is generally high, resulting in an increase in the operating cost of the system. To solve this problem, the blowing fan 5 of the present utility model adopts a high-pressure variable-frequency vortex fan. By providing air source through the high-efficiency and low-energy-consumption high-pressure vortex fan, it has the effect of energy saving, and at the same time can ensure the effect of pneumatic conveying. It is 80% more energy-saving than the commonly used Roots blower. At the same time, the equipment has a smaller volume, occupies less floor area, is lighter in weight, and saves more materials.
[0031] A first pressure transmitter 13 is arranged at the air outlet of the high-pressure variable-frequency vortex fan, and a second temperature sensor 14 is arranged on the outer shell of the high-pressure variable-frequency vortex fan to monitor the operating state of the high-pressure variable-frequency vortex fan at all times. When abnormal conditions such as low pressure and over-temperature occur, audible and visual alarms can be given to ensure the normal operation of the whole set of equipment.
[0032] Similarly, a second pressure transmitter 15 is arranged on the negative-pressure air supply port 7 to monitor the air intake state of the negative-pressure air supply port 7.
[0033] Generally, after the equipment is installed, only through methods such as telephone communication or people going to the site can after-sales service be carried out. It is impossible to observe the operating state of the equipment at any time, impossible to discover problems existing in the operation process of the equipment in advance, impossible to provide better services for users, and only receive feedback from users when problems occur, which often affects the use of users.
[0034] To solve the above problems, the control of various components of the present utility model (such as the blowing fan, the first pressure transmitter, the second pressure transmitter, the first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor, the air lock, the heater, the vibrator and the level switch, etc.) adopts a PLC control system. Through the feedback of system parameters, the operating state of the equipment is monitored; the automatic control operation of the equipment can be realized through the data detected by the interlock online. The control system is connected to remote devices by using 4G Internet of Things technology, and remote monitoring and operation of the system can be realized, which is convenient for subsequent technical support and after-sales service.
[0035] For the convenience of installation, the solid material pneumatic conveying device is arranged in a box body 16. The box body 16 includes a base 17, a bracket 18 and a housing 19. The blowing fan 5 is arranged on the base 17, and the silo 1 and the air lock 3 are arranged on the bracket 18.
[0036] The box body 16 has an openable and closable feeding cover plate 20 at the top of the bin 1, and a handle 21 is arranged on the feeding cover plate 20 to facilitate feeding.
[0037] An electric control system cabinet 23 can also be arranged inside the box body 16 for setting the electric control system of the equipment.
[0038] The above is the preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the principle described in the present utility model, several improvements and modifications can still be made, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
