Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coal quality detection devices, and in particular to coal quality detection equipment and a detection method. Background Art

[0002] For thermal power units that burn pulverized coal, the quality of the pulverized coal blown into the furnace has a great impact on the economy and safety of combustion. Due to the current limitations of the industry's technological development level, current coal quality testing usually involves sampling from the main coal feeding belt. After sample preparation and burning in the laboratory, the coal quality parameters are calculated based on the burning values ​​and fed back to the boiler operators and coal blending personnel.

[0003] Since this coal quality detection method has serious lag and poor sampling representativeness, the coal quality test values ​​have little guiding significance for on-site operation adjustment personnel. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device that can directly sample and detect on the air-powder pipeline for coal powder input. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The sampling tubes installed take samples directly from the air-powder duct, avoiding the lag of traditional methods and providing real-time feedback on coal quality data, providing immediate guidance for boiler operation and coal blending, and significantly improving combustion economy and safety. Multiple sampling tubes can be connected to multiple air-powder ducts at the same time, ensuring comprehensive coverage of coal powder samples and enhancing the representativeness and accuracy of the test results. The various devices are integrated into a single cabinet, with the container automatically transferred by a robotic arm and the coal powder accurately transported by a vibrating feeder. The weighing device and the burn detection device are linked for detection, reducing manual intervention, improving detection efficiency, and reducing errors. The vibrating feeding design based on electromagnets and permanent magnets achieves controllable alternating magnetic fields through a frequency converter, which also makes the vibration frequency controllable, preventing coal powder from clogging the feed pipe and ensuring continuous and uniform feeding. The modular design of each device in the entire equipment facilitates equipment maintenance and expansion, and adapts to the coal quality testing needs of air-powder ducts of different sizes.

[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the vibrating feeder further includes an excitation frame, which is connected to the cabinet via a coil spring, and the torsion spring is used to drive one end of the permanent magnet to abut against the excitation frame.

[0015] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a storage table is further included. The storage table is arranged in the cabinet and is used to store containers. The robotic arm is used to grab the containers from the storage table and transfer them to the weighing device.

[0016] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a cleaning device is also included, which includes a supporting platform, a lifting cylinder, a cover body, a cleaning brush and a dust suction pipe. The supporting platform and the lifting cylinder are both arranged in a cabinet. The supporting platform is used to place a container after burning coal powder. The cover body is connected to the lifting cylinder. The lifting cylinder is used to drive the cover body to lift and lower to cover or detach from the container opening on the supporting platform. The cleaning brush is rotatably connected to the lower end of the cover body. The cleaning brush is configured to extend into the container on the supporting platform. One end of the dust suction pipe is connected to the cleaning brush, and the other end of the dust suction pipe is connected to the air powder duct. The inner cavity of the cleaning brush is provided with a turbine blade. The dust suction pipe can drive the cleaning brush to rotate through the turbine blade to clean the container on the supporting platform during vacuuming.

[0039] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that descriptions involving orientations, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0040] In the description of the present invention, if there is a description of first and second, it is only for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0041] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, and connecting should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The present invention discloses a coal quality detection device, which is applied to an air-powder duct 800 with a sampling extension tube 810, and includes a cabinet 900 and a sampling tube 100, a cyclone separator 200, a vibrating feeder 300, a weighing device 400, a burning detection device 500, and a robotic arm 600. It should be noted that the sampling extension tube 810 is a pipe provided on the air-powder duct 800, and the so-called air-powder duct 800 refers to the pipe that feeds fuel to the boiler of a power plant. That is, after the coal is ground into powder and then separated, the coal powder and air (that is, wind) are mixed at the outlet of the pulverizer and then sent to the boiler for combustion. The pipe where the coal powder and air are mixed and circulated is the air-powder duct 800. Sampling and real-time detection from this pipe can more accurately reflect the coal quality. This is mainly used for online detection of coal quality. It should be noted that a flattening scraper 910 is also installed inside the cabinet 900. When the container 160 is loaded into the burning detection device 500, the flattening scraper 910 rotates to flatten the coal powder inside the container 160, ensuring uniform burning of the coal powder inside the container 160 and ensuring detection accuracy and quality. It is understood that the flattening scraper 910 is rotatably installed inside the cabinet 900. Specifically, the cabinet 900 is equipped with an electric cylinder for lifting, the motor is installed on the lifting module of the electric cylinder, and the flattening scraper 910 is connected to the rotating shaft of the motor. Each sampling tube 100 is connected to an air-powder duct 800, and the recovery duct is connected to the corresponding air-powder duct 800 through a branch, and the branch is equipped with a valve. Only a portion of the air-powder duct 800 is shown.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 Multiple sampling tubes 100 are provided, each detachably connected to a sampling extension tube 810. Each sampling tube 100 is configured to sample a single air-dust duct 800. A cyclone separator 200 is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with each sampling tube 100, with the other end of the sampling tube 100 connected to the inlet of the corresponding cyclone separator 200. It will be appreciated that multiple sampling tubes 100 enable sampling of multiple air-dust ducts 800, enabling coal quality sampling and testing of multiple air-dust ducts 800 using a single device, saving equipment space and costs. A negative pressure fan can be added to the pipeline between the sampling tube 100 and the cyclone separator 200 to absorb the coal dust. It will be appreciated that the cyclone separator 200 is conventional equipment.

[0044] Reference Figure 2The vibrating feeder 300 includes an electromagnet 310, a permanent magnet 320, a frequency converter 330 and a feeding pipe 340. The electromagnet 310 and the frequency converter 330 are connected to the AC circuit. The permanent magnet 320 is hinged to the cabinet 900 through a torsion spring 350. The torsion spring 350 is used to drive one end of the permanent magnet 320 to abut against the feeding pipe 340. The electromagnet 310 is used to generate an alternating magnetic field to attract or repel the permanent magnet 320, so that the permanent magnet 320 vibrates. The permanent magnet 320 can transmit the exciting force to the feeding pipe 340. The powder outlet of the multiple cyclone separation drums 200 They are all connected in parallel to the feed pipe 340 through valve 150. It should be noted that the AC circuit provides alternating current to the electromagnet 310, and the electromagnet 310 generates an alternating magnetic field under the action of the alternating current, while the magnetic field direction of the permanent magnet 320 remains unchanged. When the electromagnet 310 generates an alternating magnetic field, the permanent magnet 320 can be attracted and repelled at a certain frequency, thereby achieving vibration. The frequency converter 330 can control the frequency of the alternating magnetic field by changing the frequency, thereby controlling the frequency of the vibration. A variable resistor for controlling the current can also be connected to the AC circuit. Of course, an ordinary exciter can also be directly used and set below the feed pipe 340 to achieve the transportation of coal powder by vibrating the feed pipe 340. It is understandable that a rectifier can also be connected to the electrical circuit of the electromagnet 310, and the rectifier can be used to convert the current into a pulse current, thereby achieving the alternation between the magnetic and non-magnetic states of the electromagnet 310.

[0045] It should be noted that one end of the permanent magnet 320 abuts the feeding tube 340. When the alternating current causes the electromagnet 310 to generate an alternating magnetic field, the electromagnet 310 attracts or repels the permanent magnet 320. Because one end of the permanent magnet 320 abuts the feeding tube 340, during the repeated swinging of the permanent magnet 320, it can periodically push the feeding tube 340, thereby causing the feeding tube 340 to vibrate in a predetermined direction. The vibration frame 380 arranged below the feeding tube 340 is connected to the cabinet 900 through a coil spring. The presence of the coil spring can drive the contact wheel 381 on the vibration frame 380 to maintain abutment with the permanent magnet 320. This can reduce the impact of the permanent magnet 320 on the contact wheel 381 during the swinging process, providing a stable excitation force. Of course, the impact of the permanent magnet 320 on the contact wheel 381 during the swinging process can essentially provide an excitation force, and can also transport the material in the feeding tube 340.

[0046] Reference Figure 1The weighing device 400 is used to support the container 160 and weigh the pulverized coal in the container 160. The feed pipe 340 can discharge the pulverized coal into the container 160 on the weighing device 400. The burning detection device 500 is used to burn the pulverized coal in the container 160 and perform weighing detection. The robotic arm 600 is disposed between the weighing device 400 and the burning detection device 500. The robotic arm 600 is configured to grasp the container 160 on the weighing device 400 and transfer it to the burning detection device 500, or to transfer the container 160 in the burning detection device 500 to the weighing device 400 after the burning detection device 500 burns the pulverized coal. It should be noted that the container 160 is a crucible, and the so-called weighing device 400 is used to weigh the initially collected pulverized coal so that the amount of pulverized coal discharged from the feed pipe 340 is a predetermined amount. The weighing device 400 is a common electronic scale in the field.

[0047] It should be understood that the sampling tube 100 is installed to directly sample the air-powder duct 800, avoiding the lag associated with traditional methods. It provides real-time feedback on coal quality data, providing immediate guidance for boiler operation and coal blending, and significantly improving combustion efficiency and safety. Multiple sampling tubes 100 can be connected to multiple air-powder ducts 800 simultaneously, ensuring comprehensive coverage of pulverized coal samples and enhancing the representativeness and accuracy of test results. All devices are integrated into a cabinet 900. A robotic arm 600 automatically transfers the container 160, a vibrating feeder 300 precisely delivers pulverized coal, and a weighing device 400 and burn detection device 500 perform coordinated testing, reducing manual intervention, improving detection efficiency, and reducing errors. The vibrating feeding design based on the electromagnet 310 and permanent magnet 320 utilizes a frequency converter 330 to achieve controllable alternating magnetic fields and vibration frequency, preventing pulverized coal from clogging the feed pipe 340 and ensuring continuous and uniform feeding. The modular design of each device of the entire equipment facilitates equipment maintenance and expansion, and adapts to the coal quality testing needs of air-powder pipelines of different sizes.

[0048] It should be noted that, referring to Figure 4 A sealing block 820 is slidably connected to the sampling extension tube 810, and the sealing block 820 is connected to the sampling extension tube 810 through an elastic member 830. The elastic member 830 drives the sealing block 820 to seal the sampling extension tube 810. A thread is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the sampling extension tube 810. One end of the sampling tube 100 is rotatably connected to a nut 110. A top block 120 is provided in the sampling tube 100, and a sealing ring 130 is provided in the nut 110. When the nut 110 is threadedly connected to the sampling extension tube 810, the top block 120 can push open the sealing block 820 to connect the air powder duct 800 and the sampling tube 100. The sealing ring 130 is used to seal the connection between the sampling tube 100 and the sampling extension tube 810.

[0049] Reference Figure 2The vibrating feeder 300 further includes a vibration frame 380, which is connected to the cabinet 900 via a coil spring. The torsion spring 350 is used to drive one end of the permanent magnet 320 to abut against the vibration frame 380. The vibration frame 380 is provided with a contact wheel 381, and one end of the permanent magnet 320 abuts against the contact wheel 381. The feed pipe 340 is arranged to be tilted downward. The valve 150 is connected to the feed pipe 340 via a bellows 360. The vibrating feeder 300 further includes a discharge pipe 370, which is connected to the feed pipe 340 and is provided with a solenoid valve 371. The solenoid valve 371 is used to control the amount of coal powder discharged from the discharge pipe 370. The discharge pipe 370 is used to discharge coal powder into the container 160 on the weighing device 400. It can be understood that the vibration frame 380 can achieve vibration in the up and down directions under the action of the coil spring. When the vibration of the permanent magnet 320 is transmitted to the contact wheel 381, the coil spring will also be compressed. That is, the vibration frame 380 can drive the feeding pipe 340 to vibrate in the up and down directions. Of course, the feeding pipe 340 also vibrates along its axial direction, so that the coal powder in the feeding pipe 340 can be vibrated and discharged.

[0050] In some embodiments, the weighing device 400 is electrically connected to the electromagnet 310 through a control module. When the weighing device 400 reaches a predetermined weight, the electromagnet 310 stops working. It should be noted that the so-called control module can be a PLC microcontroller or a computer.

[0051] Reference Figure 1 , and also includes a storage table 140, which is arranged in the cabinet 900. The storage table 140 is used to store containers 160. The robotic arm 600 is used to grab the containers 160 from the storage table 140 and transfer them to the weighing device 400. It can be understood that the storage table 140 is mainly used as a transfer and temporary storage container 160 when burning coal powder in multiple containers 160, and can also navigate and position the movement of the robotic arm 600.

[0052] Reference Figure 3, also includes a cleaning device 700, the cleaning device 700 includes a supporting platform 710, a lifting cylinder 720, a cover 730, a cleaning brush 740 and a dust suction pipe 750, the supporting platform 710 and the lifting cylinder 720 are both arranged in the cabinet 900, the supporting platform 710 is used to place the container 160 after the pulverized coal is burned, the cover 730 is connected to the lifting cylinder 720, and the lifting cylinder 720 is used to drive the cover 730 to rise and fall to cover or detach the container on the supporting platform 710 160, the cleaning brush 740 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the cover body 730, and the cleaning brush 740 is configured to extend into the container 160 on the support platform 710. One end of the dust suction tube 750 is connected to the cleaning brush 740, and the other end of the dust suction tube 750 is connected to the air powder duct 800. The inner cavity of the cleaning brush 740 is provided with a turbine blade 741. The dust suction tube 750 can drive the cleaning brush 740 to rotate through the turbine blade 741 to clean the container 160 on the support platform 710 when vacuuming.

[0053] A coal quality detection method, using coal quality detection equipment, includes the following steps:

[0054] S1, connect each sampling tube 100 to the sampling extension tube 810 on the corresponding air-powder duct 800;

[0055] S2, start the electromagnet 310 to make the feeding tube 340 vibrate under the alternating magnetic field of the permanent magnet 320 and the electromagnet 310;

[0056] S3, opening the corresponding valve 150, allowing the pulverized coal in the corresponding cyclone separation drum 200 to fall into the feeding pipe 340. Under the vibration of the feeding pipe 340, the pulverized coal is transported to the container 160 on the weighing device 400 and weighed;

[0057] S4, the container 160 on the weighing device 400 is clamped by the robotic arm 600 and placed in the burning detection device 500 for weighing and burning. Based on the loss on ignition, the moisture, volatile matter, fixed carbon, and ash content of the pulverized coal are calculated step by step. Based on this, the calorific value of the pulverized coal is calculated to assess the quality of the coal.

[0058] S5, after the burning is completed, the robot arm 600 clamps and moves the container 160 from the burning detection device 500 to the cleaning device 700 for cleaning, and then the robot arm 600 moves the container 160 to the weighing device 400 to wait for the next coal powder sample to arrive.

[0059] It is understandable that the burning detection device 500 is an existing device, which mainly measures the quality of coal powder by burning. It will not be repeated here. In step S5, the cleaning device 700 mainly drives the cover body 730 and the cleaning brush 740 to descend after detecting that the container 160 is in place. When the cover body 730 covers the container 160, the dust suction pipe 750 starts to suck the dust in the container 160. During the suction process, the cleaning brush 740 will be driven to rotate by the turbine blade 741, and the container 160 can also be cleaned. Of course, a motor can also be set on the cantilever beam connected to the lifting cylinder 720. The main shaft of the motor is connected to the cover body 730. The motor directly drives the cover body 730 to rotate to achieve a circular cleaning of the inner wall of the container 160. Of course, the motor cannot keep rotating in one direction. The motor can rotate alternately in forward and reverse directions to prevent the dust suction pipe 750 from being cut.

[0060] It should be noted that only one valve 150 is opened each time for sampling, in order to sample one air-powder pipe 800. During a round-robin sampling process, the air-powder pipe 800 is not sampled repeatedly, that is, each valve 150 is opened once, and a sample is taken for testing, until all air-powder pipes 800 are sampled and tested. This is one round-robin.

[0061] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0062] Of course, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. Those skilled in the art may make equivalent modifications or substitutions without violating the spirit of the present invention. These equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
