Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of kiln pipes, and in particular to a kiln heat energy balance pipe mechanism. Background Art

[0002] In traditional sintering equipment, the kiln usually uses the method of directly inputting external cold air to supply oxygen to the combustion zone. However, this method will cause a large temperature difference between different areas in the kiln (such as lanes A and B), affecting the uniformity of the sintering temperature, and thus causing problems such as asynchronous volatilization of the product glue and unstable sintering quality.

[0003] In this regard, some kilns in the existing technology try to adopt the method of heating the cold air first and then inputting it. Although this can reduce the temperature difference between channels A and B to a certain extent, it consumes a lot of energy, and the heat in the cooling section of the sintering equipment is often wasted. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a kiln thermal energy balance pipeline mechanism, which solves the technical problem that the kiln in the existing technology cannot effectively utilize the heat of the cooling section, resulting in a large temperature difference between channel A and channel B, which will adversely affect the sintering quality of the product.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a kiln heat energy balance pipeline mechanism includes a sintering device, wherein a kiln A channel and a kiln B channel are opened inside the sintering device, an electric heater and a material conveying track are respectively provided inside the kiln A channel and the kiln B channel, a circulating fan is provided on the side of the kiln A channel, an exhaust circular pipe is connected between the circulating fan and the kiln A channel, and an air inlet end of the circulating fan is connected to an air inlet circular pipe. During the sintering process of the product in the kiln A channel and the kiln B channel, the circulating fan will pass through the exhaust circular pipe. Air is input into the interior of channel A in the kiln to ensure the normal progress of the sintering operation. The air intake circular pipe is provided with a heat energy circulation mechanism for transporting heat energy of the cooling section of the sintering equipment. The heat energy circulation mechanism includes a connecting component. One side of the connecting component is provided with a main exhaust pipe connected to the air intake circular pipe, and the other side of the connecting component is provided with a branch air intake pipe. The outer sleeve of the branch air intake pipe is provided with a thermal insulation sleeve, and the outer sleeve of the thermal insulation sleeve is provided with an outer protective sleeve. When the circulating fan is powered on, the hot air inside the branch air intake pipe will be sucked into the interior of channel A in the kiln, thereby promoting combustion.

[0006] Preferably, a number of branch air inlet pipes are arranged at equal intervals, which can not only improve the efficiency of heat transfer and achieve multi-point heat transfer, but also enable cyclic maintenance of the pipeline without stopping and waiting.

[0007] Preferably, the internal rotation of the branch air inlet pipe is connected with an inclined baffle, and the outer side of the branch air inlet pipe is detachably installed with a water receiving box. Initially, the inclined baffle blocks the inside of the branch air inlet pipe. When heat is transported, the inclined baffle will rotate upward under the action of the circulating fan.

[0008] Preferably, the thermal insulation sleeve is made of polyurethane foam, which can effectively reduce heat loss during heat transfer.

[0009] Preferably, the branch air inlet pipe is made of stainless steel, and the outer protective sleeve is made of polyethylene material. The outer protective sleeve can provide a certain degree of protection for the thermal insulation sleeve to prevent the thermal insulation sleeve from being damaged.

[0010] By means of the above technical solution, the present invention provides a kiln heat energy balance piping mechanism, which has at least the following beneficial effects: 1. The present invention provides a circulating fan and a heat circulation mechanism to re-transport the hot air from the cooling section of the sintering equipment to channel A in the kiln, so that the incoming air is in a high-temperature state. Compared with directly inputting external cold air, the temperature difference between channel A and channel B in the kiln is significantly reduced. This not only optimizes the temperature uniformity of the sintering process, but also reduces heat energy loss, improves energy utilization, and thus reduces overall energy consumption.

[0011] 2. The present invention provides a circulating fan and a heat circulation mechanism, inputs preheated air from the side, and combines the synergistic effect of the electric heater and the feed track to ensure uniform temperature distribution during the sintering process, avoiding local overheating or overcooling. This stable thermal environment allows the product glue to volatilize synchronously, thereby reducing sintering defects, improving the density and mechanical properties of the product, and ensuring the quality consistency of the sintered product.

[0012] 3. The present invention provides connecting components and branch air intake pipes, and the branch air intake pipes are arranged in multiple groups with equal spacing to form a multi-point heat absorption and heat transfer network, which not only improves the heat transfer efficiency, but also enables rotation maintenance without downtime, greatly reducing production interruption time. In addition, the design of the inclined baffle and water collection box can automatically collect condensed water to prevent pipe blockage or corrosion, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce maintenance costs.

[0013] 4. The present invention provides an insulation sleeve and an outer protective sleeve. The branch air inlet pipe is made of stainless steel, and the outer protective sleeve is made of polyethylene, which has both high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance. At the same time, the insulation sleeve can effectively reduce heat loss. The overall structure takes into account thermal efficiency, safety and durability. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] Example 1 In the prior art, some kilns try to heat the cold air first and then input it. Although this can reduce the temperature difference between the A and B channels to a certain extent, it consumes a lot of energy and the heat in the cooling section of the sintering equipment 1 is often wasted. In order to solve this technical defect in the prior art, Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment proposes a kiln heat energy balance pipeline mechanism, which can significantly reduce the temperature difference between the kiln A channel 2 and the kiln B channel 3. Specifically, the interior of the sintering equipment 1 is provided with the kiln A channel 2 and the kiln B channel 3. The interiors of the kiln A channel 2 and the kiln B channel 3 are respectively provided with electric heaters 4 and conveying tracks 5. A circulating fan 6 is provided on the side of the kiln A channel 2. An exhaust circular pipe 7 is connected between the circulating fan 6 and the kiln A channel 2. The air inlet end of the circulating fan 6 is connected with an air inlet circular pipe 8. During the sintering process of the product in the kiln A channel 2 and the kiln B channel 3, the circulating fan 6 will input air into the interior of the kiln A channel 2 through the exhaust circular pipe 7, thereby ensuring the normal progress of the sintering operation.

[0018] Specifically, the air intake pipe 8 is provided with a heat energy circulation mechanism 9 for conveying heat energy of the cooling section of the sintering equipment 1. The heat energy circulation mechanism 9 includes a connecting component 901. One side of the connecting component 901 is provided with a main exhaust pipe 902 connected to the air intake pipe 8. The other side of the connecting component 901 is provided with a branch air intake pipe 903. The branch air intake pipe 903 is made of stainless steel. There are several branch air intake pipes 903 at equal intervals, which can not only improve the efficiency of heat transmission and realize multi-point heat transfer, but also carry out cyclic maintenance of the pipeline without stopping and waiting. The outer sleeve of the branch air intake pipe 903 is provided with a heat preservation sleeve 904. The heat preservation sleeve 904 is made of polyurethane foam, which can effectively reduce the heat in the process of heat transmission. Heat loss, the outer sleeve of the insulation sleeve 904 is provided with an outer protective sleeve 905. When the circulating fan 6 is powered on, the hot air inside the branch air inlet pipe 903 will be sucked into the inside of the A channel 2 in the kiln, thereby promoting combustion. The outer protective sleeve 905 is made of polyethylene material. The outer protective sleeve 905 can provide a certain protection for the insulation sleeve 904 to avoid damage to the insulation sleeve 904. The inner rotation of the branch air inlet pipe 903 is connected with an inclined baffle 906, and the outer side of the branch air inlet pipe 903 is detachably installed with a water receiving box 907. Initially, the inclined baffle 906 blocks the inside of the branch air inlet pipe 903. When heat is transported, the inclined baffle 906 will rotate upward under the action of the circulating fan 6.

[0019] According to the above content, during the sintering process of the product, the circulating fan 6 will automatically transfer the heat generated by the cooling section of the sintering equipment 1 to the interior of the A channel 2 in the conveying kiln through the branch air inlet pipe 903, so that the air entering the A channel 2 in the kiln is in a high-temperature state. Compared with the method of directly conveying external air to the A channel 2 in the kiln in the prior art, it can effectively reduce the temperature difference between the A channel 2 in the kiln and the B channel 3 in the kiln, ensuring that the volatilization of the product glue can proceed synchronously.

[0020] Moreover, if Figure 1 As shown, multiple branch air intake pipes 903 are provided, and multiple heat absorption sites can be set near the cooling end of the sintering equipment 1, which can effectively improve the efficiency of heat transfer, thereby ensuring the normal progress of the sintering process. In addition, multiple branch air intake pipes 903 can be inspected and maintained in turn without stopping and waiting.

[0021] In addition, if Figure 6 As shown, each branch air inlet pipe 903 is provided with an inclined baffle 906. After the circulating fan 6 stops working, the inclined baffle 906 will tilt and block the inside of the branch air inlet pipe 903. Next, the condensed water generated on the inner wall of the branch air inlet pipe 903 will flow downward along the inner wall of the pipe. Then, the condensed water will flow into the inside of the water receiving box 907 under the action of the inclined baffle 906.

[0022] In this embodiment, a circulating fan 6 and a heat circulation mechanism 9 are provided to transport the hot air from the cooling section of the sintering equipment 1 back to the A channel 2 in the kiln, so that the incoming air is in a high-temperature state. Compared with directly inputting external cold air, the temperature difference between the A channel 2 in the kiln and the B channel 3 in the kiln is significantly reduced, which not only optimizes the temperature uniformity of the sintering process, but also reduces heat energy loss, improves energy utilization, and thus reduces overall energy consumption; moreover, in this embodiment, a circulating fan 6 and a heat circulation mechanism 9 are provided to input preheated air from the side, and the synergistic effect of the electric heater 4 and the feed track 5 is combined to ensure uniform temperature distribution during the sintering process, avoid local overheating or overcooling, and this stable thermal environment enables the volatilization of the product glue to proceed synchronously, thereby reducing sintering defects, improving the density and mechanical properties of the product, and ensuring The quality consistency of sintered products; moreover, in this embodiment, by providing a connecting component 901 and a branch air inlet pipe 903, the branch air inlet pipe 903 is arranged in multiple groups with equal spacing to form a multi-point heat absorption and heat transfer network, which not only improves the heat transfer efficiency, but also enables rotation maintenance without downtime, greatly reducing production interruption time. In addition, the design of the inclined baffle 906 and the water collection box 907 can automatically collect condensed water to prevent pipe blockage or corrosion, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce maintenance costs; in addition, in this embodiment, by providing an insulation sleeve 904 and an outer protective sleeve 905, the branch air inlet pipe 903 is made of stainless steel and the outer protective sleeve 905 is made of polyethylene material, which has both high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance. At the same time, the insulation sleeve 904 can effectively reduce heat loss, and the overall structure takes into account thermal efficiency, safety and durability.

The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by a person skilled in the art. The provision of power is also common knowledge in the art.
