Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of feed processing equipment, and specifically relates to a heating module in a conditioning tower. The present invention also relates to a conditioning tower. The present invention further relates to a material heating method. Background Art

[0002] The conditioning tower is a very important process in the oilseed pressing process. It is mainly used to condition the temperature and humidity of the oilseeds and is a major consumer of steam energy in the entire pressing workshop. The oilseed conditioning tower is a device used to treat oilseeds and improve their physical and chemical properties. It is widely used in the oilseed pretreatment section of large oil mills. It improves and regulates the temperature and moisture of oilseeds and destroys the protein structure through indirect heating from heat sources and hot air drying, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the oil yield.

[0003] After the oilseeds are cleaned and impurities removed, they enter the conditioning tower through the feed hopper. Under the action of gravity, they flow downward layer by layer in the form of plunger flow, passing through a series of heating zones and ventilation zones. The internal moisture migrates to the surface, and the precipitated free moisture is taken away by the hot air, so that the oilseeds reach the appropriate temperature and humidity.

[0004] The traditional conditioning tower is a vertical modular stacking equipment. It is configured with different numbers of modules according to the different oilseed processing capabilities. It is mainly composed of a feeding module, a heating module, a ventilation module, and a discharge module. Each module is a welded structure, which is inconvenient to operate and maintain. The overall welded structure is inconvenient to repair and maintain. When a fault occurs, the entire conditioning tower must be disassembled, and the fault downtime is long, which seriously affects the production of the oilseed pressing plant and is also a major problem that plagues oil and fat plants.

[0005] The heating module adopts a welded tubular heating section, including multiple rows of horizontally regularly arranged heat exchange flat tubes. Both ends of each heat exchange flat tube are welded to the tube sheet. There is an integral closed tube box on the outside of the tube sheet, and the heating medium can be passed into the tube box for heating. At present, in the long-term production process, because the heating tube box, tube sheet and heating flat tube are integrally welded, after the low-pressure steam is passed, the materials of different components are different, the expansion and contraction of the heat exchange flat tube and the heating tube box are inconsistent, and the weld between the heating flat tube and the tube sheet is easy to break, which can easily cause the heating medium to leak into the oilseed material to be heated, and the tempering effect cannot be achieved.

[0006] Each heating module of the quenching and tempering tower is equipped with an expansion joint, and multiple heating modules are stacked and assembled for heating. Although each heating module is equipped with an expansion joint, since the flanges of the staggered and stacked multiple heating modules are fastened with four rows of bolts, the lower heating module needs to bear the weight of the upper module, and the expansion and contraction directions of the two adjacent heating modules are inconsistent, which still prevents the heat exchange flat tubes from expanding and contracting. The welds between the heating flat tubes and the tube sheets are still often broken, and the problem has not been completely solved. Summary of the invention

[0046] The present invention adopts a drawer-type structure to compensate for the expansion and contraction caused by thermal expansion and contraction, effectively avoiding weld cracking.

[0047] In one embodiment, Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, a water inlet pipe 220 is provided on the bottom layer heating assembly; a water outlet pipe 230 is provided on the upper layer heating assembly; a water outlet branch pipe 215 of the upper layer heating assembly is connected to a water inlet branch pipe 216 of the upper layer heating assembly via a connecting pipe 240, so that the upper and lower layer heating assemblies are arranged in series. The connecting pipe 240 is preferably a metal hose. A water inlet pipe is provided at the lower part of one end of each heating mechanism, and a water outlet pipe is provided at the upper part. Metal hoses are used at both ends of the heating module to realize that the water inlet branch pipe and the water outlet branch pipe of the heating assembly are connected end to end in series, so that the heating medium flows back and forth, with multiple bends, to form the best heat exchange effect with the material (such as oilseeds).

[0049] The heating assembly consists of heating flat tubes, heating tube strips, buckles, hot water pipes, and square pipe boxes.

[0050] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, in the heating module, the number of heating zones 130 is 3; in each heating zone 130, the number of heating components 210 is 8. The heating module is divided into three heating zones, each of which is composed of 8 heating components, each of which can freely expand and contract in the horizontal direction, which can compensate for the expansion and contraction caused by thermal expansion and contraction, and effectively avoid weld cracking. The present invention divides the heating module into twenty-four drawer-type heating components, specifically: the heating module is divided into three heating zones, each of which is composed of 8 drawer-type heating components, each of which can freely expand and contract in the horizontal direction, which can compensate for the expansion and contraction caused by thermal expansion and contraction, and effectively avoid weld cracking.

[0051] Example 2 A tempering tower, characterized in that it comprises the heating module according to any one of claims 1 to 9.

[0052] In one embodiment, Figure 1As shown, it includes a tempering section, which includes several layers of heating modules. The upper and lower heating modules are cross-staggered and stacked, and the heating components of the upper and lower heating modules are vertically arranged; the water inlet pipe of the upper heating module is connected to the water outlet pipe of the lower heating module.

[0053] The telescopic directions of two adjacent heating modules are inconsistent, but the heating mechanism is within the heating zone of the supporting frame, and there are no bolts fastening connections between the heating components, so the heating components can be freely telescopic.

[0054] Each heating module is stacked and assembled in a tempering section. When the entire production line enters the maintenance period, the heating components can be easily pulled out for maintenance, and the maintenance time will be within 24 hours.

[0055] The quenching and tempering tower of the present invention is a cross-staggered stacking combination of heating modules, such as Figure 3 As shown, the heating modules 10 are set to be A / B / C / D from bottom to top, and are cross-staggered and stacked together. The heating medium passes through the heating module A water inlet-A water outlet-B water inlet-B water outlet-C water inlet-C water outlet-D water inlet-D water outlet in sequence, and the oil seeds enter from the top in the form of plunger flow, and rely on gravity to pass through the heating modules A / B / C / D in sequence to be indirectly heated to a suitable temperature.

[0056] Example 3 The material heating method is achieved by using the tempering tower of any one of Embodiment 2.

[0057] In one embodiment, the conditioning method includes: The heating medium passes through the heating components from bottom to top in sequence. The heating medium flows back and forth, with multiple bends, forming an S-shaped flow channel between the heating components to ensure the best heat exchange effect; The heating medium passes through the heating modules from bottom to top in sequence; After the material is cleaned and impurities are removed, it enters the tempering tower through the feed hopper. Under the action of gravity, it flows downward layer by layer in the form of a plunger flow, and passes through the S-shaped flow channel of each layer of the heating module of the tempering section in turn. The material particles are mixed and tumbled, and are evenly and indirectly heated. The moisture inside the material migrates to the surface, and the precipitated free moisture is taken away by the hot air, so that the material reaches the appropriate temperature and humidity.

[0058] The heating module of the tempering tower is a cross-staggered combination of drawer-type heating modules. When the oil seeds flow by gravity, the flow route changes from a straight line to a curve, and the oil seed particles are mixed and tumbled, achieving uniform heating of the oil seeds, improving heat exchange efficiency and energy saving effects.

[0059] In one embodiment, the heating medium used by the heating module is hot water, condensed water or low-pressure steam. The heating flat tubes of the heating module can be fed with low-quality heating media such as hot water and condensed water, which can efficiently exchange heat and greatly reduce steam consumption.

[0060] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the conditioning tower can be stacked with 4 to 10 heating modules.

[0061] The drawer-type energy-saving oilseed conditioning tower heating module of the present invention is assembled by stacking each heating module, and is heated by hot water or condensed water, which can save steam and facilitate maintenance and operation.
