[0025] In the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, terms such as "mounted," "connected," "connect," and "fixed" should be understood broadly. For example, they may refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; they may refer to direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they may refer to internal communication between two components or interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on specific circumstances.

[0026] The following combination Figure 1-Figure 3 The fire bar assembly 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the fire grate body 1, the combustion plate 5 and the air baffle 51, the fire grate body 1 includes: an air inlet part 2, an air outlet part 3 and a main body 4, the air inlet part 2 is located on the lower side of the main body 4, the air inlet part 2 has an air inlet hole 21, the air outlet part 3 is located on the upper side of the main body 4, the air outlet part 3 has an air outlet channel 31 and an air outlet hole 32, the air outlet channel 31 is connected with the air outlet hole 32, the main body 4 has a gas channel 41, the gas channel 41 connects the air inlet hole 21 and the air outlet channel 31, that is, the fire grate body 1 can be composed of three parts: the air inlet part 2, the air outlet part 3 and the main body 4, and the main body 4 is provided with a gas channel 41 connecting the air inlet hole 21 of the air inlet part 2 and the air outlet channel 31 of the air outlet part 3.

[0028] In a specific embodiment, a nozzle is provided on the outside of the fire grate body 1, and the nozzle is opposite to the air inlet 21 and is connected to the air inlet 21, and the nozzle can spray gas toward the air inlet 21. After the gas enters from the air inlet 21, it circulates through the gas channel 41, and then enters the air outlet channel 31 and is discharged from the air outlet 32, so as to ignite and burn the gas. In this process, when the gas in the gas channel 41 flows to the air outlet channel 31, due to the action of the gas inertia force, most of the gas volatilizes toward the direction of the connection between the gas channel 41 and the air outlet channel 31, and then is discharged from the air outlet 32, resulting in the gas speed discharged from the air outlet 32 ​​away from the connection between the gas channel 41 and the air outlet channel 31 being much smaller than the gas speed discharged from the air outlet 32 ​​close to the connection between the gas channel 41 and the air outlet channel 31. Therefore, when the fire grate assembly 10 is burned, there is a risk of uneven combustion flame of the fire grate assembly 10.

[0029] Further, if Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the combustion plate 5 is suitable for being installed at the gas outlet 32 ​​of the fire bar body 1 so as to burn the gas discharged from the gas outlet 32 ​​.

[0030] In a specific embodiment, the air baffle 51 can be fixed under the combustion plate 5, and there is a certain gap between the air baffle 51 and the air outlet 32, so as to prevent the air baffle 51 from completely blocking the gas, causing abnormal combustion of the fire bar assembly 10.

[0031] Further, if Figure 1 As shown, the air baffle 51 is located between the combustion plate 5 and the fire grate body 1, and the air baffle 51 is arranged at one end of the combustion plate 5 near the intersection of the gas channel 41 and the gas outlet channel 31. Therefore, the air baffle 51 can partially block the speed of the gas discharged from the gas outlet 32 ​​near the connection between the gas channel 41 and the gas outlet channel 31. The blocked gas is forced to change its flow direction under the pressure of the subsequent surging gas, and is discharged from the gas outlet 32 ​​away from the connection between the gas channel 41 and the gas outlet channel 31. This can ensure that the height of the combustion flame of the fire grate assembly 10 is relatively uniform, and is also beneficial to improving the combustion completeness of the gas and reducing the noise during combustion.

[0032] According to the fire grate assembly 10 of the embodiment of the present invention, an air baffle 51 is provided between the fire grate body 1 and the combustion plate 5, and the air baffle 51 is located at one end close to the intersection of the gas channel 41 and the gas outlet channel 31. Therefore, the speed of the gas discharged from the gas outlet 32 ​​near the connection between the gas channel 41 and the gas outlet channel 31 can be partially blocked, so that the blocked gas is discharged from the gas outlet 32 ​​away from the connection between the gas channel 41 and the gas outlet channel 31, thereby improving the problem of different gas discharge speeds at the gas outlet 32 ​​of the fire grate body 1, ensuring that the height of the combustion flame of the fire grate assembly 10 is relatively uniform, and also conducive to improving the combustion completeness of the gas and reducing the noise during combustion.

[0033] Furthermore, if Figure 1 As shown, the air baffle 51 is facing the intersection of the gas channel 41 and the gas outlet channel 31, so that the air baffle 51 can better block the position where the gas discharge speed is the largest, thereby further improving the speed consistency of the gas discharged from the exhaust hole, and ensuring the high uniformity of the combustion flame height of the fire grate assembly 10.

[0034] Furthermore, the air baffle plate 51 is provided with a plurality of air outlets, and the plurality of air outlets are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the air baffle plate 51, which can prevent the air baffle plate 51 from blocking too much gas near the connection between the air outlet hole 32 and the gas channel 41 and the air outlet channel 31, thereby causing the gas discharge speed near the connection between the air outlet hole 32 and the gas channel 41 and the air outlet channel 31 to be too low, thereby causing the height of the combustion flame of the fire bar assembly 10 to be uneven. Therefore, by providing the air baffle plate 51 with a plurality of air outlets arranged at intervals along the length direction of the air baffle plate 51, it can be ensured that an appropriate portion of the gas can be discharged from the air outlet hole 32 near the connection between the gas channel 41 and the air outlet channel 31, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the height of the combustion flame of the fire bar assembly 10.

[0035] Furthermore, if Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the air outlet 32 ​​can be a long strip air outlet 32, the air outlet channel 31 is located at the lower end of the air outlet portion 3, and the air baffle 51 is a long strip air baffle 51. The length of the air baffle 51 is smaller than the length of the air outlet channel 31, thereby ensuring that the air baffle 51 can block part of the gas.

[0036] Furthermore, the length of the air baffle 51 is not less than 1 / 3 of the air outlet 32, and the length of the air baffle 51 is not greater than 1 / 2 of the air outlet 32. That is, the length of the air baffle 51 is between 1 / 3 and 1 / 2 of the length of the air outlet 32, ensuring that the air baffle 51 can appropriately block the gas discharge speed of the air outlet 32 ​​near the connection between the gas channel 41 and the air outlet channel 31, ensuring that the speed of gas discharge from the air outlet 32 ​​is uniform, thereby ensuring that the height of the combustion flame of the fire bar assembly 10 is uniform.

[0037] exist Figure 1-Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, the gas channel 41 may include: a first channel 42, an intermediate channel and a second channel 43 connected in sequence, the first channel 42 is connected to the gas outlet channel 31, the second channel 43 is connected to the air inlet 21, and the intermediate channel is located between the first channel 42 and the second channel 43. The first channel 42 is a straight section, the intermediate channel is a curved section, and the second channel 43 is a diffusion section. The air baffle 51 is facing the curved section. Therefore, after the gas flows out of the second channel 43, it flows to the third channel 44. Under the action of inertia, most of the gas still flows in the direction of the curve of the second channel 43. Therefore, the air baffle 51 is facing the curved section to block the position where the gas velocity is higher, so that more gas can be diffused from the third channel 44 to the gas outlet channel 31, thereby making the gas discharge speed at the gas outlet 32 ​​consistent, thereby ensuring the uniform height of the combustion flame of the fire bar assembly 10.

[0038] It should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance or implicitly specify the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0039] According to another embodiment of the present invention, the burner 6 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, it includes a fire bar rack 61 and the above-mentioned fire bar assembly 10 . There are multiple fire bar assemblies 10 , and the multiple fire bar assemblies 10 are arranged in the fire bar rack 61 .

[0040] Furthermore, if Figure 3 As shown, a main air inlet 62 is provided on one side of the fire row rack 61, and the air inlet holes 21 of multiple fire row assemblies 10 are connected to the main air inlet 62 through an air inlet pipe, thereby ensuring that the gas can be diverted from the main air inlet 62 to the air inlet 21 of each fire row assembly 10, and the nozzle located at the air inlet 21 can pressurize the gas, thereby ensuring that the air intake pressure of the fire row assembly 10 is sufficient.

[0041] Furthermore, an ignition device 63 is provided on the fire bar rack 61. The ignition device 63 is located above the fire bar assembly 10. The ignition device 63 can ignite the gas discharged by the fire bar assembly 10 to ensure that the gas can burn on the combustion plate 5 of the fire bar assembly 10.

[0042] In the description of this specification, the reference terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example" or "some examples" mean that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, the schematic expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples. In addition, those skilled in the art can combine and combine different embodiments or examples described in this specification.
