Title of the invention: SEALING DEVICE FOR AN OXY-FUEL ROTARY CALCINATION KILN Technical field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a sealing device for an oxy-fuel rotary calcination kiln and belongs to the technical field of rotary kilns. Background
[0002] Oxy-fuel calcination technology is one of the technologies that currently achieve significant energy savings in the cement industry. It can reduce the ignition point of the fuel, accelerate the calcination speed of the fuel, promote the complete calcination of the fuel, increase the flame temperature, reduce the smoke after calcination, improve the heat utilization rate, and reduce the emission of nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas. An oxy-fuel calcination rotary kiln is a kiln into which high-concentration oxygen and carbon dioxide are blown, and no air can enter in order to prevent nitrogen from participating in chemical reactions in this kiln, thereby reducing the production of nitrogen oxides. In order to realize the oxy-fuel calcination technology in cement calcination, the sealing aspect of the rotary kiln is a key technology.Due to the high temperature at the seal during the operation of the rotary kiln and the rotation of the cylinder at the seal accompanied by swinging and axial movement, it is very difficult to ensure the sealing and airtight effect.

It can effectively ensure the use of the oxy-fuel rotary calcining kiln and solve the sealing problem of the oxy-fuel rotary calcining kiln.
[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the present disclosure proposes the following technical solution.
[0005] A sealing device for an oxy-fuel rotary calcining kiln is provided, arranged on the outer side of a rotating cylinder. The sealing device comprises a tension device, a rotating cover, a fixed cover and a static friction ring cover; a brush and a sealing flap steel sheet are respectively arranged on the inner side of a sleeve of the fixed cover; the rotating cover is also fixed on the outer side of the rotating cylinder and has a dynamic friction ring a fixed on its upper part and a dynamic friction ring b fixed on its right side; the static friction ring cover is also arranged on the outer side of the rotating cover, and a static friction ring a and a static friction ring b are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the static friction ring cover; the static friction ring a and the dynamic friction ring a are press-fitted and the static friction ring b and the dynamic friction ring b are press-fitted;the tensioning device is installed on the outer side of the static friction ring cover, one end of the tensioning device presses against the fixed cover, and the tensioning device has a certain tension to provide the static friction ring cover with a force causing a tendency to move away from the fixed cover; a seal a and a seal b are also arranged on the outer side of the sleeve of the fixed cover, and a spacer ring is arranged between the seal a and the seal b, and the pressure is adjusted by a seal pressure adjusting device; and outer peripheries of the seal a and the seal b are connected to the right bottom of the static friction ring cover located on the upper side thereof, and slide axially together with the static friction ring cover. ;
[0006] In addition, the static friction ring cover is also connected to a slight positive pressure (overpressure) carbon dioxide source, and the carbon dioxide enters the static friction ring cover through an air inlet.
[0007] Furthermore, a vent hole c and a vent hole b are further provided in the static friction ring cover and the spacer ring is provided with a vent hole a; the vent hole c is located at the top of the static friction ring b on the right side of the static friction ring cover, and the vent hole b is located between the seal a and the seal b at the bottom of the static friction ring cover.

[0025] Referring to Figures 1 to 3, a specific embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a sealing device for an oxy-fuel rotary calcining kiln, the sealing device is arranged on the outer side of a rotating cylinder 5 and comprising a tension device 1, an L-shaped rotating cover 4, an L-shaped fixed cover 14 and a door-shaped static friction ring cover 18.
[0026] As shown in [Fig.2], a brush 8 and a sealing flap steel sheet 6 are arranged at an inner side of a fixed cover sleeve 14. The outer diameter ends of the brush 8 and the sealing flap steel sheet 6 are fixed on the inner side of the fixed cover sleeve 14 and the inner sides of the brush 8 and the sealing flap steel sheet 6 are interference fitted with the outer diameter surface of the rotating cylinder 5. Due to the elasticity of the brush 8 and the sealing flap steel sheet 6, the brush 8 and the sealing flap steel sheet 6 can come into interference fit with the rotating cylinder 5 to prevent dust in a case in which the rotating cylinder 5 swings and moves axially, thereby preventing fly ash in the furnace from entering the areas of the friction ring b and the packing b.
[0027] The rotary cover 4 is also fixed on the outer side of the rotary cylinder 5 and has a dynamic friction ring a 3 fixed on an upper part and a dynamic friction ring b 13 fixed on a right side. The dynamic friction ring a 3 and the dynamic friction ring b 13 which are fixed on the rotary cover 4 can rotate, oscillate and move axially together with the rotary cylinder 5.
[0028] The static friction ring cover 18 is also arranged on the outer side of the rotary cover 4, and a static friction ring a 2 and a static friction ring b 12 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the static friction ring cover 18. The static friction ring a 2 and the static friction ring b 12 can slide axially together with the static friction ring cover 18. The static friction ring a 2 is press-fitted with the dynamic friction ring a 3, and the static friction ring b 12 is interference-fitted with the dynamic friction ring b 13. In a case in which the rotating cylinder 5 moves axially, the static friction ring a 2 and the dynamic friction ring a 3 are interference-fitted, and the static friction ring b 12 and the dynamic friction ring b 13 are interference-fitted. In a case in which the rotating cylinder 5 rotates and oscillates, the static friction ring a 2 and the dynamic friction ring a 3 continue to abut and slide relative to each other, and the static friction ring b 12 and the dynamic friction ring b 13 continue to abut and slide relative to each other.The sealing device for the oxy-fuel rotary calcination kiln is further provided with a friction ring lubrication system 22 which is configured to supply the lubricating oil to lubricate sliding surfaces between the aforementioned friction rings.
[0029] The tensioning device 1 is installed on the outer side of the static friction ring cover 18, and one end of the tensioning device 1 presses against the fixed cover 14. The tensioning device 1 has a certain tension to provide the static friction ring cover 18 with a force causing a tendency to move away from the fixed cover 14. This embodiment adopts a hydraulic rod structure.
[0030] A seal a 9 and a seal b 10 are also arranged at an outer side of the fixed cover sleeve 14 and a spacer ring 7 is arranged between the seal a 9 and the seal b 10, and the pressure is adjusted by a seal pressure adjusting device 11 so that the seal a 9 and the seal b 10 are press-fitted with the outer side of the fixed cover sleeve 14 and can slide axially. In this embodiment, a bolt-nut compression structure is adopted to serve as the seal pressure adjusting device 11.The outer peripheries of the seal a 9 and the seal b 10 are connected to the right bottom of the static friction ring cover 18 arranged above and slide axially together with the static friction ring cover 18.
[0031] As shown in [Fig.3], the static friction ring cover 18 is also connected with a slightly overpressure carbon dioxide source, and the carbon dioxide enters the static friction ring cover 18 through an air inlet 20. In a case in which there is a small gap between the static friction ring a 2 and the dynamic friction ring a 3, some carbon dioxide overflows. In a case in which there is a small gap between the static friction ring b 12 and the dynamic friction ring b 13, carbon dioxide enters the rotary furnace.
[0032] A vent hole c 17 and a vent hole b 16 are provided in the static friction ring cover 18, and the spacer ring 7 is provided with a vent hole a 15. The vent hole c 17 is located at the top of the static friction ring b 12 on the right side of the static friction ring cover 18, and the vent hole b 16 is located between the seal a 9 and the seal b 10 at the bottom of the static friction ring cover 18. Carbon dioxide reaches the seal a 9 and the seal b 10 through the vent hole c 17, the vent hole b 16, and the vent hole a 15. In a case in which there is a small gap between the seal b 10 and the outer side of the sleeve of the fixed cover 14, the carbon dioxide enters the rotary kiln.In a case in which there is a small gap between the sealing gasket a 9 and the outer side of the fixed cover sleeve 14, carbon dioxide overflows to ensure that air cannot enter the rotary kiln.
[0033] As shown in [Fig.l], two static friction ring cover supports 19 are fixed on the fixed cover 14 in order to limit the rotation of the static friction ring cover 18 along the axis but allow the axial displacement of the static friction ring cover 18.
[0034] In this embodiment, as shown in [Fig. 3], a dust outlet cover 21 is arranged at the bottom of the static friction ring cover 18, so that it is possible to clean the dust inside the static friction ring cover 18.
[0035] Although the embodiments of the present disclosure have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications, changes, substitutions, and variations of the embodiments may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. The scope of the present disclosure is defined by the appended claims.
