Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an annular cooler, in particular to a silting device for a water sealing groove of an annular cooler. Background Art

[0002] Currently, domestic iron and steel plants generally use ring coolers to cool sintered materials. The upper seal of the ring cooler is generally a water seal. A plug-in plate on the upper cover of the ring cooler inserts into a water trough to form a water seal. This seal provides excellent sealing and high waste heat power generation efficiency. During actual operation, powdered particles and dust from the sintered ore fall into the water trough. Over time, a large amount of dust accumulates at the bottom of the trough, forming a sludge. When the sludge reaches or even exceeds the height of the plug-in plate, the trough plug-in plate creates resistance to the ring cooler, which can cause serious production accidents.

[0003] Cleaning the accumulated dirt inside the water tank of the annular cooler relies entirely on manual cleaning, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Manual cleaning of the accumulated dirt will lead to many problems. The first is safety. When the annular cooler is running, workers need to stand on a platform at the same height as the water tank, and the distance from the running annular cooler is too close, which poses a great safety hazard. The second is that if workers become lazy and fail to clean in time, the accumulated dirt will increase, which will bring resistance to the operation of the equipment, and the large resistance will cause shutdown.

[0004] The Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN214470125U discloses a silting device for a water seal tank of an annular cooler. The cleaning and unloading hopper of the invention is composed of a collecting hopper, a connecting pipe and a unloading chute, and its efficiency is low. Summary of the Invention

The base 1 is a welded component of a frame structure, and the drive mechanism is installed on the base 1. In this embodiment, a reduction motor 2 is preferably used. The reducer of the reduction motor 2 is a cycloid reducer. The motor of the reduction motor 2 is a variable frequency motor with adjustable speed. The desilting impeller 3 is installed on the output shaft of the reduction motor 2 ( Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown in FIG), the desilting impeller 3 is composed of a shaft sleeve 4 and blade teeth 5, and the blade teeth 5 are mainly composed of a support rod 6 and a scraping bucket 7 ( Figure 5 The shaft sleeve 4 is mounted on the output shaft of the reduction motor 2 and connected to it via a key. Three support rods 6 are radially welded to the outer circumference of the shaft sleeve 4. The support rods 6 have an H-shaped cross-section and a beveled outer end. A mud scraper 7 is welded to the outer end of the support rods 6. A rib 4-1 is welded between the side of the support rod 6 opposite the direction of rotation and the shaft sleeve 4.

[0031] The bucket openings of the three scraping buckets 7 face the rotation direction of the mud removing impeller 3. The scraping bucket 7 is mainly composed of a bucket top plate 7-1, a bucket bottom plate 7-2, an outer plate 7-3, an inner plate 7-4, a rear bucket plate 7-5 and a baffle 7-7. The rear bucket plate 7-5 is opposite to the bucket opening. The bucket top plate 7-1 is arc-shaped. The outer end of the bucket bottom plate 7-2 of the scraping bucket 7 is inclined toward the center of the circle of the shaft sleeve 4. The plate surface of the bucket bottom plate 7-2 is set tangentially. A discharge port 7-6 is opened between the outer ends of the outer plate 7-3 and the bucket bottom plate 7-2. The outer plate 7-3 and the discharge port 7-6 are both located on the outside of the outer end surface of the shaft sleeve 4. A baffle 7-7 is welded to the inner edge of the bucket opening. The baffle 7-7 prevents the silt from flowing out from the inner edge of the bucket opening after the scraping bucket 7 moves to the top. A circular mud guard plate 8 is welded to the outer end of the shaft sleeve 4. The mud guard plate 8 is located below the bucket bottom plate 7-2.
