[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 A specific embodiment of the system for preventing dust accumulation in the air duct shown in the figure comprises: at least one positioner 4, at least one spoiler 5, a power structure 6 and a control module 7. The air duct is a secondary hot air duct matched with a boiler. Figure 2 As shown, the control module 7 can be arranged on the sealing cover 17 at the front of the detection box 1.

The power structure 6 is suitable for driving the positioner 4 to rotate, and then driving the spoiler 5 to swing, so as to change the direction of the flue gas flowing through the detection box 1 in the air duct, and then lift the accumulated ash in the air duct to form fly ash, which is carried away by the flue gas. The control module 7 is connected to the power structure 6 by signal, and the control module 7 is suitable for controlling the swing angle of the spoiler 5 through the power structure 6.

For example, the swing angle can be adjusted to a swing angle of 30° or more. Specifically, the concentration sensor 8 can be a particle sensor or a laser dust sensor, etc.

[0037] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the system for preventing dust accumulation in the air duct described in the present application also includes: a wind speed sensor 9, which is arranged in the detection box 1, and the wind speed sensor 9 is signal-connected to the control module 7, and the wind speed sensor 9 is suitable for obtaining the flue gas flow rate in the detection box 1 in real time; the control module 7 is suitable for swinging the spoiler 5 in real time to an angle parallel to the flue gas flow direction when the flue gas flow rate is lower than the set wind speed threshold.

[0038] Since the air duct is at high temperature, dust may melt or adhere. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the system for preventing dust accumulation in the air duct described in the present application also includes: a temperature sensor 10, which is arranged in the detection box 1, and the temperature sensor 10 is signal-connected to the control module 7, and the temperature sensor 10 is suitable for obtaining the temperature in the detection box 1 in real time; the control module 7 is suitable for reducing the swing angle of the spoiler 5 in real time to reduce the flow area when the temperature in the detection box 1 is higher than the set temperature threshold.

[0039] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the system for preventing dust accumulation in the air duct described in the present application further includes: a pressure sensor 11, which is arranged in the detection box 1, and the pressure sensor 11 is connected to the control module 7 by signal, and the pressure sensor 11 is suitable for obtaining the gas pressure in the detection box 1 in real time; the control module 7 is suitable for increasing the swing frequency of the spoiler 5 in real time when the gas pressure in the detection box 1 is higher than the set pressure threshold. The gas pressure can be the gas pressure difference before and after the spoiler 5 in the detection box 1.

[0040] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the system for preventing dust accumulation in the air duct described in the present application also includes: a dust thickness measuring sensor, which is arranged in the air duct, and the dust thickness measuring sensor is connected to the control module 7 by signal, and the dust thickness measuring sensor is suitable for obtaining the dust thickness in the air duct in real time; the control module 7 is suitable for starting the spoiler 5 in real time to swing it when the dust thickness in the air duct is higher than the set thickness threshold.

[0041] The concentration sensor 8, wind speed sensor 9, temperature sensor 10, pressure sensor 11 and dust thickness measurement sensor are collectively referred to as sensors. The sensors are made of synthetic materials and metal alloys that are resistant to environmental changes. Specifically, a high-temperature resistant shell can be used, that is, the shell is designed to have the characteristics of high temperature resistance and high humidity resistance, and can work normally during boiler operation. The sensor can use sensitive elements, usually ceramics or special alloy materials, to ensure long-term stable performance and accurate measurement performance. The sensor adopts a sealed design to ensure the safety of the electronic components inside the sensor and avoid degradation of working performance due to temperature and pressure changes. Figure 2 As shown, the control module 7 is also provided with a housing, and can cooperate with a manual touch panel, that is, the swing of the spoiler 5 can also be controlled by the control module 7 through the manual touch panel. The housing of the control module 7 can be made of heat-resistant plastic. The housing made of heat-resistant plastic can resist the potential heat in the working environment of the boiler and protect the electronic components in the control module 7. Specifically, the power structure 6 is an electric motor. The electric motor adopts an aluminum alloy housing, which has the advantages of being light, rust-proof and corrosion-resistant, and is suitable for the working environment inside the boiler. The electric motor is provided with an additional protective coating to increase the heat resistance and corrosion resistance. The spoiler 5 is made of high-temperature resistant, high-pressure resistant and corrosion-resistant stainless steel, and the stainless steel has certain strength and toughness. The high-temperature resistance means that the spoiler 5 can withstand the high-temperature gas generated during the operation of the boiler, and the temperature resistance can usually reach 800°C or higher. The high-pressure resistance means that the spoiler 5 adapts to the high-pressure environment inside the boiler, which can effectively prevent the spoiler 5 from deforming or damaging the material when the pressure changes. The corrosion resistance means that the stainless steel used to make the spoiler 5 contains specially designed alloy elements such as chromium and nickel, which enables the spoiler 5 to resist corrosion from high-temperature water vapor, acidic gases and ash, and is particularly suitable for long-term operation at high temperatures. The acidic gases include: SO 2and HCl, etc. The stainless steel used to make the spoiler 5 has good strength and toughness, can withstand the impact of flue gas flow and mechanical wear, and prevent cracks or fatigue damage. The positioner 4 can be made of lightweight, high-strength, corrosion-resistant and low-friction engineering plastics or composite materials. Lightweight and high-strength means that the engineering plastics or composite materials can provide sufficient strength while reducing the overall weight, making it easy to install and maintain. Corrosion resistance means that the engineering plastics or composite materials can resist the humid and corrosive environment during boiler operation, ensuring long-term stable operation. The low friction coefficient can reduce the friction when the positioner 4 rotates, thereby improving the reaction speed and flexibility.

[0042] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, if fly ash is still accumulated in the air duct after several rounds of swinging of the spoiler 5, a larger range of cleaning measures can be considered, for example, the cleaning frequency can be further increased or manual intervention cleaning can be performed.

[0043] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the inlet 2 and the outlet 3 of the detection box 1 are respectively provided with a first flange structure 12 and a second flange structure 13; the detection box 1 is sealed and connected to the part of the air duct suitable for disconnection through the first flange structure 12 and the second flange structure 13.

[0044] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, the system for preventing dust accumulation in the air duct described in the present application also includes: a guide plate 14, which is curved and wavy along the direction of the smoke flow, and the guide plate 14 is arranged on the side wall of the detection box 1 through a positioning plate 15.

[0045] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, the system for preventing dust accumulation in the air duct described in the present application further includes: a vibration structure 16. The vibration structure 16 is arranged on the positioning plate 15, and the vibration structure 16 is suitable for generating vibration and transmitting the vibration to the guide plate 14 through the positioning plate 15 to reduce the dust deposited on the guide plate 14. The vibration structure 16 can be started periodically. Specifically, the vibration structure 16 is an electromagnetic vibrator or a vibration motor.

[0046] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope defined by the appended claims.
