Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of non-return valves, and more particularly to an assist device for a non-return valve at the outlet of a blower. Background Technology
[0002] The induced draft fan outlet check valve is mainly driven by a central shaft. The cylinder drives the central shaft to rotate, thereby opening and closing the check valve. During the opening and closing process, the check valve not only bears the resistance of the flue system, but also its own weight when installed in a vertical flue position. However, the design is based on horizontal installation. During unit operation, the vertically installed check valve cannot open normally, which requires reducing the unit load (reducing the resistance at the baffle outlet). This increases the risk of unsafe events during load lifting and lowering operations. At the same time, when the fan is connected in parallel, fuel consumption and fuel injection time are increased in order to stabilize combustion. In addition, the space is limited when the actuator is installed on the flue, and there is not enough space to install a high-power pneumatic actuator.
[0003] Without modifications, when a wind turbine fails and is restarted, the flue gas volume in the flue needs to be reduced, the load needs to be reduced to about 10%, fuel oil needs to be used for stable combustion, and the unit load (power generation) needs to be reduced, thus reducing the economic efficiency of operation.

[0026] Example 1
[0027] Reference Figure 1 The first embodiment of the present invention provides an assist device for a non-return valve at the outlet of a fan. This device includes a first opening component 100, which includes a receiving member 101, a first connecting member 102, and a first activating member 103. The first connecting member 102 is disposed on the receiving member 101, and the first activating member 103 is disposed on the first connecting member 102.
[0028] Specifically, the accommodating member 101 includes a first door body 101a and a second door body 101b, both of which are semi-circular structures and are symmetrically arranged.
[0029] Furthermore, the first connector 102 includes a first central shaft 102a and a first connecting rod 102b. There are two first central shafts 102a, which are fixedly connected to one side of the first door body 101a and the second door body 101b, respectively. There are two first connecting rods 102b, which are movably connected to each of the first central shafts 102a.
[0030] Furthermore, the first actuating component 103 includes a first left-side pneumatic actuator 103a and a first right-side pneumatic actuator 103b. The first left-side pneumatic actuator 103a is fixedly connected to one of the first connecting rods 102b, and the first right-side pneumatic actuator 103b is fixedly connected to the other first connecting rod 102b.
[0031] During operation, firstly, the first left-side pneumatic actuator 103a and the first right-side pneumatic actuator 103b are activated. These two actuators are respectively fixed to two first connecting rods 102b. With the activation of the pneumatic actuators, they drive the first connecting rods 102b to move. Since the first connecting rods 102b are movably connected to the first central shaft 102a, the movement of the connecting rods will cause the first central shaft 102a to rotate. The rotation of the first central shaft 102a will cause the first door body 101a and the second door body 101b (two semi-circular door bodies) to rotate around the central shaft. When the two door bodies rotate to a certain angle, they will form a channel, realizing the open state; conversely, when the door bodies rotate back to the initial position, the channel is closed. Once the door bodies reach the required open or closed position, the pneumatic actuators stop working to maintain the current state of the door bodies. This process can be realized through an automated control system, making the operation more convenient and precise.

[0036] During operation, the first support rod 201a and the second support rod 201b, together with the first bearing plate 201c, allow the first left-side fixing block 202a and the first right-side fixing block 202b to be installed and fixed on it. This also allows the first left-side pneumatic actuator 103a and the first right-side pneumatic actuator to be fixed on the first left-side fixing block 202a and the first right-side fixing block 202b, thus assisting the normal operation of the entire device.
[0037] Example 3
[0038] Reference Figure 1 The first embodiment of the present invention provides an assist device for a non-return valve at the outlet of a fan. This device includes a second opening component 300, which includes a second connecting member 301, a second starting member 302, a second supporting member 303, and a second fixing member 304. The second connecting member 301 is disposed on the receiving member 101, the second starting member 302 is disposed on the second connecting member 301, the second supporting member 303 is disposed on the receiving member 101, and the second fixing member 304 is disposed on the second supporting member 303.
[0039] Specifically, the second connecting member 301 includes a second central shaft 301a and a second connecting rod 301b. There are two second central shafts 301a, which are fixedly connected to the other side of the first door body 101a and the second door body 101b respectively. There are two second connecting rods 301b, which are movably connected to the second central shaft 301a respectively.
[0040] Furthermore, the second actuating component 302 includes a second left pneumatic actuator 302a and a second right pneumatic actuator 302b. The second left pneumatic actuator 302a is fixedly connected to one of the second connecting rods 301b, and the second right pneumatic actuator 302b is fixedly connected to the other second connecting rod 301b.
[0041] Furthermore, the second support member 303 includes a third support rod 303a fixedly connected to the first door body 101a and the second door body 101b, wherein a fourth support rod 303b is provided at a symmetrical position to the third support rod 303a, and the fourth support rod 303b is fixedly connected to the other side of the first door body 101a and the second door body 101b. A second support plate 303c is fixedly connected to the third support rod 303a and the fourth support rod 303b. There are two third support rods 303a, fourth support rods 303b and second support plates 303c.
[0042] Furthermore, the second fixing member 304 includes a second left fixing block 304a and a second right fixing block 304b. The second left fixing block 304a is fixedly connected to one of the second bearing plates 303c, and the second right fixing block 304b is fixedly connected to the other second bearing plate 303c. A second left pneumatic actuator 302a is also fixedly connected to one side of the second left fixing block 304a, and a second right pneumatic actuator 302b is fixedly connected to one side of the second right fixing block 304b.
[0043] During operation, the second left pneumatic actuator 302a and the second right pneumatic actuator 302b, which are respectively fixed to the second left fixed block 304a and the second right fixed block 304b, drive their respective connected second connecting rods 301b to move. Since the second connecting rods 301b are movably connected to the second central shaft 301a, the movement of the connecting rods will cause the second central shaft 301a to rotate. The rotation of the second central shaft 301a will cause the first door body 101a and the second door body 101b to rotate around the second central shaft 301a. When the two door bodies rotate to a certain angle, they will form a... The door opens when the door rotates back to its initial position. Conversely, when the door rotates back to its initial position, the door closes. At the same time, the second left fixed block 304a and the second right fixed block 304b move along the third support rod 303a and the fourth support rod 303b, respectively, because they are fixedly connected to the second bearing plate 303c. The second left pneumatic actuator 302a and the second right pneumatic actuator 302b not only drive the linkage to move, but also assist the normal operation of the entire device, ensuring the smooth opening and closing of the door. When the door moves to the desired position (fully open or fully closed), the pneumatic actuator stops working to maintain the current state of the door. After the door is fully open or closed, it ensures that it remains stable in the desired position.
[0044] Because the actuators require support, this design saves space for installing high-power actuators and facilitates maintenance, lifting, and installation. The simultaneous operation of the two actuators ensures even force distribution on the shaft and doubles the torque transmitted to the shaft, which further facilitates the opening of the check valve. This device can start under loads of over 50% without the need for fuel stabilization, greatly improving the unit's operating economy and equipment safety.
