Detailed implementation mode

[0017] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 , the present invention provides a technical solution: An environmental protection emission index monitoring and warning device for a thermal power plant, including a base 1 and a monitoring box 4. A support column 2 is fixedly connected to the base 1, and an adjustment component 3 is installed on the support column 2. The adjustment component 3 is used to lift and lower the monitoring box 4. A dust removal component 7 and a linkage component 5 are arranged on the monitoring box 4. The dust removal component 7 is used to clean the panel of the monitoring box 4, and the linkage component 5 is used to drive the dust removal component 7 to clean the monitoring box 4 during the process of the adjustment component 3 lifting and lowering the monitoring box 4.

[0019] Refer to Figures 1 to 5 , in order to achieve automatic cleaning of the monitoring box 4 during the process of the monitoring box 4 descending from a high place, so that the linkage component 5 cooperates with the dust removal component 7, wherein: The linkage component 5 includes a reciprocating lead screw 51, a transmission gear 52 and a fixed rack 53. Two bearing seats 54 are fixedly connected to the top of the monitoring box 4, and the bearing seats 54 are respectively located at positions close to the ends of the reciprocating lead screw 51. The reciprocating lead screw 51 is rotatably installed on the bearing seats 54. The transmission gear 52 is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating lead screw 51. The fixed rack 53 is vertically fixed on the support column 2 and cooperates with the transmission gear 52. By meshing of the gear and the rack, the linear lifting is converted into a rotational motion, accurately controlling the rotation frequency of the reciprocating lead screw 51, ensuring the synchronization of the dust removal action and the lifting speed, and improving the reliability of the system operation; The dust removal component 7 includes a sliding sleeve 71, a limiting rod 72 and a cleaning plate 73. The sliding sleeve 71 is in threaded cooperation with the reciprocating lead screw 51. The limiting rod 72 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the monitoring box 4 and is arranged parallel to the reciprocating lead screw 51. The cleaning plate 73 is fixedly connected to the sliding sleeve 71 and is slidably connected to the limiting rod 72. The cleaning plate 73 is used to clean the panel of the monitoring box 4, constructing an actuator for mechanical cleaning. The rotational motion is converted into a linear reciprocating motion through a threaded pair, and the limiting rod 72 is used to eliminate the motion deviation, ensuring that the cleaning plate 73 maintains a constant contact pressure with the monitoring panel and improving the dust removal uniformity.

[0020] Refer to Figure 4 , in order to optimize the cleaning contact interface, a rubber pad 74 for cleaning dust is fixedly connected to the surface of the cleaning plate 73 that fits the panel of the monitoring box 4. The rubber pad 74 is designed with both elastic deformation and wear resistance characteristics, avoiding scratches on the panel caused by direct metal contact while ensuring the scraping force, and prolonging the service life of the optical sensor protective cover.

[0021] Refer to Figure 5 , 6 , in order to further improve the cleaning effect of the monitoring box 4, a blowing component 6 is introduced. The blowing component 6 includes a rotating disk 61, a connecting rod 62, a fixed rod 63, a piston plate 64, a piston cylinder 65 and a blowing pipe 66. The rotating disk 61 is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating lead screw 51. The connecting rod 62 is eccentrically hinged to the rotating disk 61. The fixed rod 63 is hinged to the end of the connecting rod 62. The piston plate 64 is fixed to the end of the fixed rod 63. The piston cylinder 65 is fixedly connected to the side of the monitoring box 4 and a one-way valve is arranged at the bottom of the piston cylinder 65. The blowing pipe 66 is fixedly installed on the panel of the monitoring box 4 and is connected to the piston cylinder 65. The blowing pipe 66 is evenly provided with blowing holes for evenly blowing the panel of the monitoring box 4. The piston is driven by the lifting power to generate pulsed air flow, forming a composite cleaning mechanism with mechanical cleaning, effectively removing caked dust, especially suitable for treating stubborn stains in a high-humidity flue gas environment.

[0022] Refer to Figure 2, in order to lower the monitoring box 4 from a height of 4 people to a lower place for maintenance, the adjustment component 3 is used to automatically lift and lower the monitoring box 4, reducing labor intensity and being convenient to use. The adjustment component 3 is introduced. The adjustment component 3 includes a servo motor 31, a threaded column 32 and a threaded sleeve 33. The servo motor 31 is fixedly installed in the support column 2, and the output end of the servo motor 31 is fixedly connected to the threaded column 32. The threaded column 32 is rotatably installed in the support column 2. The support column 2 is provided with a radial travel groove 21. The threaded column 32 passes through the travel groove 21. The threaded sleeve 33 is slidably arranged in the travel groove 21 and is threadedly connected to the threaded column 32. The threaded sleeve 33 is fixedly connected to the monitoring box 4, and the monitoring box 4 is driven to lift and lower in the travel groove 21 by the threaded column 32. The precise transmission combination of the servo motor 31 + ball screw is adopted, and the circumferential rotation is restricted by the travel groove 21 to achieve high positioning accuracy and meet the personalized height requirements of maintenance personnel of different body types.

[0023] Refer to Figure 7 , in order to make the monitoring box 4 lift and lower stably and keep the center of gravity of the whole device located in the middle section, the balance component 8 is introduced. The balance component 8 includes a fixed cover 81, a threaded rod 82, a counterweight 83, a driven sprocket 84 and a driving sprocket 85. The fixed cover 81 is fixed on the back of the support column 2. The threaded rod 82 is rotatably installed in the fixed cover 81. The threaded direction of the threaded rod 82 is opposite to that of the threaded column 32. The counterweight 83 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 82. The driven sprocket 84 is fixedly installed on the threaded rod 82. The driving sprocket 85 is fixed on the threaded column 32. The driving sprocket 85 and the driven sprocket 84 are connected by chain drive. The reverse torque is generated by the counterweight 83 with reverse threads to offset the center of gravity shift caused by the lifting and lowering of the monitoring box 4 in real time and prevent the support column 2 from deforming.

[0024] When maintenance is required, during the process of the adjustment component 3 driving the monitoring box 4 to descend, the fixed rack 53 on the support column 2 meshes with the transmission gear 52 to drive the reciprocating lead screw 51 to rotate, so that the sliding sleeve 71 moves along the reciprocating lead screw 51 and drives the cleaning plate 73 to mechanically clean the monitoring panel; at the same time, the rotating disc 61 drives the piston plate 64 to reciprocate in the piston cylinder 65 through the linkage mechanism, and blows the compressed air evenly over the surface of the panel through the air blowing pipe 66 to achieve a double dust removal effect.

[0025] A method for monitoring and warning environmental protection emission indicators of a thermal power plant is also provided, including the following steps: S1. Lift and lower the monitoring box 4 to the maintenance height through the adjustment component 3; S2. During the lifting and lowering process, drive the dust removal component 7 to clean the panel of the monitoring box 4 through the linkage component 5; S3. When the monitoring box 4 reaches the specified height, perform parameter calibration or component replacement operations; S4. After the maintenance is completed, operate the adjustment component 3 in the reverse direction, and trigger the cleaning operation again during the process of lifting the monitoring box 4.

[0026] Among them, the cleaning operation in step S2 includes: Driving the cleaning plate 73 to perform mechanical scraping and dust removal through the rotation of the reciprocating lead screw 51; Synchronously driving the blowing component 6 to generate pulsed air flow to blow the surface of the panel.

[0027] Among them, during the lifting and lowering processes in steps S1 and S4, the position of the counterweight 83 is adjusted in real time through the balance component 8, specifically including: The driving sprocket 85 rotates with the lifting shaft, and drives the reverse threaded rod 82 to rotate through chain drive; The counterweight 83 moves along the reverse thread to generate a reverse torque to offset the overturning torque generated by the lifting and lowering of the monitoring box 4.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
