[0016] Figure 2 It is the process flow for the transformation of the expansion joint of the return feeder leg.

[0017] In the figure: 1 is the first cylinder of the ash pipe, 2 is the flange welding end, 3 is the second cylinder of the ash pipe, 4 is the metal reinforcement mesh, 5 is the ash guide pipe, and 6 is the thermal insulation sealing layer. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] A boiler return feeder leg expansion joint comprises an ash-following pipe and an ash-guiding pipe.

[0020] The ash-following pipe is arranged inside the ash-guiding pipe, and heat-insulating materials are arranged between the ash-following pipe and the ash-guiding pipe.

[0021] When the expansion joint of the return feeder leg is used, one end is connected to the boiler slag outlet and the other end is connected to the slag cooler. That is, the ash pipe is connected to the boiler slag outlet and the ash guide pipe is connected to the slag cooler.

[0022] The ash pipe is composed of two parts, the upper part is a first cylinder made of metal material, and a standard spigot-and-socket joint is provided at the upper end of the first cylinder. The ash pipe is connected to the upstream pipe section through the standard spigot-and-socket joint.

[0023] The lower end of the first cylinder has a flange welding end. The lower part is a second cylinder made of high temperature and wear resistant material. The second cylinder has a metal rib mesh as an internal structural member, and the outer layer is paved with cast high temperature and wear resistant material. The upper end of the metal rib mesh of the second cylinder is connected and fixed to the flange welding end of the lower end of the first cylinder by welding.

[0024] The lower end of the second cylinder is a free end, which is inserted into the ash guiding pipe.

[0025] A flange is provided at the lower end of the ash guide pipe, and the flange is connected to the downstream pipe section of the ash guide pipe by welding.

[0026] A heat-insulating sealing layer is filled between the second cylinder and the ash guiding pipe.

[0027] In the specific implementation, when modifying the expansion joint of the existing return feeder leg, the method and steps are as follows:

[0028] 1) When the boiler is shut down and in cold state, cut off the original ash pipe.

[0029] On-site processing to cut off the lower part of the original ash pipe can be done by gas cutting and grinding.

[0030] After processing and cutting, the lower edge of the retained ash pipe is higher than the upper edge of the ash guide pipe, and the height difference between the two is 10-20CM.

[0031] The retained ash pipe serves as the first cylinder.

[0032] 2) Weld the flange end of the ash pipe.

[0033] The flange welding end is a ring structure, its outer diameter is equal to the outer diameter of the ash pipe, and its inner diameter is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the ash pipe. The inner diameter is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the ash pipe by 5-10CM.

[0034] The flange welding end is used as the base surface of the second cylinder, and the flange welding end is used to connect the metal reinforcement mesh at the bottom. When the flange welding end is prefabricated, a number of rooting foundation piles are evenly welded on its lower surface.

[0035] The upper surface of the flange welding end is connected to the lower end of the first cylinder by welding.

[0036] 3) A thermal insulation sealing layer is laid inside the ash guide pipe, using a 3CM thick asbestos cushion layer, which is laid from the upper end of the ash guide pipe downwards, with an extension height of about 100CM.

[0037] 4) Prepare metal mesh and weld it in place.

[0038] The metal rib net is in the shape of a long strip, and its height is equal to the downward extension height of the second cylinder, which is about 50-70CM.

[0039] The length is approximately the circumference of the ash pipe. The upper end of the metal rib net is connected to the rooting foundation pile on the lower surface of the flange welding end of the ash pipe by welding, and after welding and positioning, it is rolled into a cylinder to serve as the internal support structure of the second cylinder.

[0040] 5) Arrange the mold box and pour the heat-resistant profiles.

[0041] A mold box is arranged inside the metal rib net. The mold box is cylindrical. A 10-15CM pouring space is formed between the outer wall of the mold box and the heat-insulating sealing layer of the ash guide pipe, in which the metal rib net is contained. The pouring space is connected to the outside world at the upper edge of the ash guide pipe.

[0042] Fill the pouring space with heat-resistant pouring material from the upper edge of the ash guide pipe. The main base material of the heat-resistant pouring material is special grade bauxite, mullite or corundum, with a volume density of 1.2-1.7g / cm 2 It is a lightweight insulating castable that can withstand temperatures above 1350 degrees.

[0043] After a hardening period, the heat-resistant casting material hardens and adheres to the metal reinforcement mesh to form a second cylinder at the lower part of the ash pipe.

[0044] Remove the mold box. Or use a wooden mold box, that is, there is no need to remove the wooden mold box. During the furnace baking stage, the wooden mold box will be burned out along the high temperature slag discharge in the ash pipe.

[0045] 7) When the boiler starts the thermal engine and switches from a cold state to a hot state, the heat-resistant profile of the second cylinder ensures that it has a long service life, and the asbestos cushion between the second cylinder and the ash guide pipe realizes the thermal insulation and sealing effect.

[0046] In this application, the ash pipe steel plate of the expansion joint of the boiler return feeder leg is cut off, and a heat-resistant steel mesh is welded around the upper metal edge, and no welding is performed on the lower part to ensure free expansion. Insulation seal is filled between the steel mesh and the outer steel plate to ensure the expansion gap. Lightweight insulation castable is poured on the steel mesh to ensure the inner diameter size, which plays a sealing and insulation effect, ensures the normal operation of the return feed system, and the leg compensator with replaced materials is more economical and durable.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only an explanation of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described above or replace some of the technical features with equivalents. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
