Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of boiler design and its auxiliary systems, and specifically to a high-efficiency sealing device for an air preheater. Background Art

[0002] Air preheater, also known as air preheater, is a heating surface where the flue gas in the flue at the tail end of the boiler preheats the air before entering the boiler to a certain temperature through the internal heat sink. It is a device used to improve the heat exchange performance of the boiler and reduce energy consumption. When working, the air preheater absorbs heat from the flue gas, and then transfers the heat to the cold air through a continuously rotating heat transfer element composed of a special shape of metal plates. Thousands of high-efficiency heat transfer elements are tightly placed in the fan-shaped bin. The flue gas and air flow alternately through the heat transfer elements in the bin. The heat transfer elements absorb heat from the hot flue gas, and then this part of the heat transfer elements is flushed by the air flow and releases the stored heat, so that the air temperature is greatly increased. Nowadays, the commonly used sealing systems of air preheaters include radial seals, axial seals, bypass annular seals and static seals. On the premise of ensuring that the adjustment of the sealing gaps of each part meets the requirements of the specification, the fan plate lifting mechanism is installed. The lifting mechanism executes the lifting or lowering command issued by the air leakage control system, lifts or pushes the fan plate to the specified position, compensates for the "mushroom-shaped" thermal deformation of the air preheater rotor, and keeps the sealing gap adjustable at all times.

[0003] The existing high-efficiency sealing devices for air preheaters mostly use contact sealing technology, which achieves contact between the seal and the fan plate in the hot state to compensate for the sealing gap and reduce the air leakage rate. However, the contact seal will seriously wear the fan plate during long-term operation, increase the air leakage rate of the air preheater, and reduce the service life.

[0013] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present invention is that a fixing frame is fixedly installed inside the hot end truss, a guide ring is fixedly installed inside the hot end truss, and a bearing guide hole is penetrated inside the guide ring.

[0014] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present invention is that: the first mounting ring and the second mounting ring are both fixedly connected to the inside of the outer frame guard plate, the first mounting ring is located at the top of the outer frame guard plate, and the second mounting ring is located at the bottom of the outer frame guard plate, a cold end truss is fixedly installed on the bottom of the outer frame guard plate, side sealing plates are fixedly installed on both ends of the cold end truss and the hot end truss, a side seat frame is fixedly installed on the outside of the outer frame guard plate, and a hot end primary air truss is fixedly installed on the top of the outer frame guard plate.

[0015] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following technical advances compared with the prior art:

[0016] 1. The present invention provides an air preheater high-efficiency sealing device.

The spoiler groove is a fixed structure and is not installed on the flue gas side, which reduces the leakage pressure difference and greatly solves the wear of the air preheater fan plate sealing sheet and the overall leakage problem, thereby greatly reducing the leakage rate of the air preheater, improving the boiler combustion efficiency and reducing energy consumption. The reinforcement plate is fixed at the bottom of the anti-gap sheet. The reinforcement plate can reinforce the anti-gap sheet to prevent the deformation of the anti-gap sheet from affecting the guide effect.
