[0003] Coal powder screening requirement: In the existing fuel conveying device for thermal power plants, it is usually necessary to pre-screen the coal powder to remove impurities and particles that do not meet the combustion requirements.

[0004] Large amount of dust in the conveying process: During the fuel conveying process, due to factors such as particle size, humidity, and wind speed of the coal powder, a large amount of dust is easily generated. These dusts not only cause environmental pollution, but also cause damage to the equipment and workers of the thermal power plant.

[0005] For example, dust will adhere to the surface of the equipment, affecting the normal operation of the equipment; at the same time, workers exposed to a dust environment for a long time are also prone to suffer from occupational diseases such as pneumoconiosis.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] The technical solutions of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0044] The novel high-efficiency dust-suppression fuel conveying device provided in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with Figures 1-9 .

[0045] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the novel high-efficiency dust-suppression fuel conveying device provided in the embodiments of the present application comprises a conveying frame 18, a first rotating roller 131, a second rotating roller 132 and a mesh belt 14. The first rotating roller 131 is rotatably installed at the left end of the conveying frame 18, and the second rotating roller 132 is rotatably installed at the right end of the conveying frame 18. The mesh belt 14 is jointly sleeved on the first rotating roller 131 and the second rotating roller 132, and the mesh belt 14 has perforations and can screen fuel during conveying of the fuel. In this way, the separation of particulate powder is completed during the fuel conveying process by the mesh belt 14, and a special screening device is saved.

[0046] Referring to Figure 9As shown in some embodiments of the present application, the device further comprises a sealing cover 1 surrounding the mesh belt 14, and the sealing cover 1 is fixed to the outer side of the conveying frame. The sealing cover 1 is provided with an inlet 2 corresponding to the position of the first rotating roller 131, and a feeding hopper 20 is installed at the inlet 2. The sealing cover 1 is provided with an outlet 6 and a slag outlet corresponding to the position of the second rotating roller 132. In this way, the sealing cover 1 encloses the entire transmission process, reducing dust leakage.

[0047] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 8 As shown in some embodiments of the present application, the device further comprises a slag guide plate 11 arranged at the slag outlet, one end of the slag guide plate 11 being arranged inside the sealing cover 1 below the second rotating roller 132, and the other end of the slag guide plate 11 extending obliquely downward from the slag outlet to the outside of the sealing cover 1. The slag guide plate 11 is used to guide the fuel on the mesh belt 14 out.

[0048] In order to reduce dust, a dustproof curtain 4 is further arranged above the slag guide plate 11 at the slag outlet.

[0049] Referring to Figure 2 As shown in some embodiments of the present application, the device further comprises a plurality of support rollers 15 rotatably arranged on the conveying frame 18 at intervals, and the support rollers 15 are arranged between the first rotating roller 131 and the second rotating roller 132 to support the upper surface of the mesh belt 14. In this way, the support rollers 15 can provide support for the mesh belt 14 to prevent the mesh belt 14 from being deformed by the fuel.

[0050] Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown in some embodiments of the present application, opposite ends of the support roller 15 are respectively formed with gradually increasing sections 16, and the diameter of the gradually increasing section 16 gradually increases in the direction close to the end of the support roller 15. By arranging the gradually increasing section 16, the height of the two sides of the mesh belt 14 can be raised to prevent the material from falling off the two sides of the mesh belt 14.

[0051] Referring to Figure 6 As shown in some embodiments of the present application, in one possible design, the radial cross section of the gradually increasing section 16 is in the form of a cam structure. During the rotation of the support roller 15, the cam structure periodically lifts the mesh belt 14, causing the powder particle mixture to vibrate frequently, thereby promoting the separation of particles and powder.

[0052] Specifically, the outer surface of the support roller 15 is provided with a rubber layer 19 and a resistance increasing pattern, which can increase the friction between the mesh belt 14 and the support roller 15 to prevent the mesh belt 14 from slipping.

[0053] Referring to Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the device further comprises a material blocking plate, which is arranged on the conveying frame 18 and located around the upper belt surface of the mesh belt 14. This prevents the material from falling off the two sides of the mesh belt 14.

[0054] Referring to Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the device further comprises a guide hood 7 and a centrifugal fan 8. The guide hood 7 is arranged at the discharge port 6, one end of the guide hood 7 is in communication with the inside of the sealing cover 1, and the other end of the guide hood 7 is in communication with the air inlet 9 of the centrifugal fan 8, and the air outlet 10 of the centrifugal fan 8 is in communication with the combustion chamber through a pipeline. The centrifugal fan 8 extracts the pulverized coal from the discharge port 6 through the guide hood 7 to provide fuel to the combustion chamber.

[0055] Working principle of the novel high-efficiency dust-suppression fuel conveying device of the present application:

[0056] When working, the fuel enters the feed inlet 2 through the feed hopper 20 and falls on the mesh belt 14. The first rotating roller 131 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 12, which drives the mesh belt 14 to move forward. The supporting rollers 15 are distributed on the conveying frame 18 to provide support for the mesh belt 14. The supporting rollers 15 are passively rotated under the drive of the mesh belt 14. During the rotation process, the cam structure at the end of the supporting roller 15 periodically lifts the mesh belt 14 upward, causing the powder and particle mixture to vibrate frequently and promoting the separation of particles and powder. At the same time, the rubber layer 19 and the resistance-increasing pattern on the supporting roller 15 increase the friction between the mesh belt 14 and the supporting roller 15, preventing the mesh belt 14 from slipping.

[0057] During the conveying process, the pulverized coal that meets the combustion requirements falls through the mesh holes of the mesh belt 14 due to gravity and falls into the bottom of the sealing cover 1. The bottom of the sealing cover 1 is designed as a left-high right-low slope 5, which allows impurities and particles to naturally slide to the right. The granular coal particles that do not meet the requirements are smoothly discharged from the slag discharge port 3. The dust curtain 4 prevents dust from overflowing from the slag discharge port 3. The gradually increasing sections 16 at the front and rear ends of the rotating sleeve gradually expand outward in diameter, which can raise the height of the two sides of the mesh belt 14 to prevent the material from falling off the two sides of the mesh belt 14.

[0058] The sealing cover 1 encloses the entire conveying process, reducing dust leakage. The centrifugal fan 8 extracts the pulverized coal from the discharge port 6 through the guide hood 7 to provide fuel to the combustion chamber. Under the action of the centrifugal fan 8, a slight negative pressure is formed inside the sealing cover 1, which can accelerate the movement of qualified pulverized coal to the discharge port 6 and prevent the pulverized coal from spreading outward.

[0059] The mesh belt 14 separates the granular powder during fuel transmission, eliminating the need for a separate screening device, removing impurities and non-compliant particles from the fuel, and improving the purity and combustion efficiency of the fuel. The design of the sealing cover 1 and the dust curtain 4 effectively prevents dust leakage, reduces environmental pollution, and protects the health of the equipment and workers. The device realizes automatic screening and transmission of fuel, reducing the complexity and labor intensity of manual operation.

[0060] In another aspect, the application also provides a new and efficient dust suppression fuel transmission method, which uses the new and efficient dust suppression fuel transmission device as described above. The method comprises:

[0061] The crushed coal powder mixture is sent to the mesh belt 14, and the smaller coal powder particles pass through the mesh belt 14 and fall into the sealing cover 1, then discharged from the discharge port 6 to become fuel;

[0062] The larger coal particles are transported by the mesh belt 14 to the slag discharge port 3 and discharged, and then re-sent to the mesh belt 14 after being crushed again.

[0063] When the coal particles discharged from the slag discharge port 3 are crushed again, they are re-fed into the feed hopper 20 for secondary transmission and screening. The repeated crushing and screening ensure the quality of the fuel, improve the combustion efficiency, reduce pollutant emissions, enhance the flexibility and reliability of the fuel handling system, and improve the fuel utilization rate and combustion efficiency. The power of the centrifugal fan 8 can be adjusted to adjust the fuel supply rate.
