[0028] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-5 A natural gas boiler burner includes a second housing 9 and a first housing 8. Two connection ports are opened on one side of the second housing 9. An air supply assembly is provided on the outer side of the second housing 9. The air supply assembly includes a support plate 2. The support plate 2 is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the second housing 9 by bolts. An air pump 1 is fixed to the upper surface of the support plate 2 by bolts. One end of the air outlet of the air pump 1 is connected and fixed to its adjacent connection port. The air pump 1 delivers external gas to the guide shell 14 connected to the second housing 9.

[0030] Specifically, two guide shells 14 are rotatably connected to one inner wall of the second housing 9. Each guide shell 14 has multiple through holes 15. Natural gas and air are respectively contained within the two guide shells 14, and the air and natural gas are discharged into the cavity of the second housing 9 through connecting ports. A first toothed ring 16 is welded to the outer side of one end of each guide shell 14. A connecting shaft 12 is rotatably connected to one inner wall of the second housing 9. A first gear 17 is keyed to one end of the connecting shaft 12, and the first gear 17 meshes with the first toothed ring 16. A power assembly for driving the connecting shaft 12 to rotate is provided on one outer wall of the second housing 9. The rotation of shaft 12 causes the first gear 17 to drive the first gear ring 16 to rotate, thereby causing the guide shell 14 to rotate and further disperse the gas. The power assembly includes a fixed frame 3, which is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the second housing 9 by bolts. A first motor is fixed to one side of the fixed frame 3 by bolts, and one end of the output shaft of the first motor passes through the second housing 9 and is fixed to the connecting shaft 12. One end of the connecting shaft 12 is fixed to multiple stirring plates 13 by bolts. The rotation of the first motor causes the connecting shaft 12 to drive the stirring plates 13 to rotate, thereby turbulenting the gas in the second housing 9 and further mixing the gas.

[0031] It should be noted that one end of the first housing 8 is connected and fixed to the connecting pipe 4, and the second housing 9 is connected and fixed to the connecting pipe 4. The connecting pipe 4 is provided with a shielding assembly, which includes a cylinder 18. The cylinder 18 is fixed to the top outer wall of the connecting pipe 4 by bolts. A slip ring 26 is slidably connected to the outside of the connecting pipe 4, and one end of the piston rod of the cylinder 18 is fixed to the slip ring 26. Multiple connecting rods 19 are fixed to one side of the slip ring 26 by bolts. One end of each of the multiple connecting rods 19 is fixed to a connecting block 21 by bolts. A groove 20 is opened in the connecting block 21. Multiple through slots are opened on the outside of the connecting pipe 4. A frame 23 is fixed to each of the multiple through slots by bolts. A baffle 24 is slidably connected to the frame 23. Each baffle 24 is in contact with the others. The top of the baffle 24 passes through the frame 23 and is fixed to the slide 22 by bolts. The slide 22 is slidably connected to the corresponding slide groove 20. The cylinder 18 extends to move the slip ring 26 along the connecting pipe 4, thereby causing the connecting rod 19 to drive the connecting block 21 to move. At this time, the top of the slide 22 moves upward along the slide groove 20, thereby causing the baffle 24 to move upward along the frame 23. At this time, the multiple baffles 24 gradually separate, and the interior of the connecting pipe 4 is no longer blocked. The mixed gas enters the first housing 8 through the connecting pipe 4. The inner wall of the connecting pipe 4 is bonded with a sealing ring 25, and the baffle 24 is in contact with the sealing ring 25. The sealing ring 25 makes the connection between the baffle 24 and the connecting pipe 4 tighter.

[0032] In this invention, a rotating tube 7 is rotatably connected to the other end of the first housing 8, and a fixed tube 6 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating tube 7. An igniter 29 is fixed to the first housing 8 by bolts, and the ignition port of the igniter 29 is located inside the first housing 8. The igniter 29 ignites the natural gas, causing it to burn inside the first housing 8. A blower assembly is provided inside the rotating tube 7. The blower assembly includes a support frame 30, which is fixed to the inner wall of the rotating tube 7 by bolts. Multiple fan blades 27 are fixed to one side of the support frame 30 by bolts. A second toothed ring 28 is fixed to the outer wall of one end of the rotating tube 7 by bolts. A mounting plate 31 is bolted to one side of the outer wall of the first housing 8. A second motor is bolted to one side of the mounting plate 31. One end of the output shaft of the second motor passes through the mounting plate 31 and is keyed to a second gear 32. The second gear 32 meshes with the second gear ring 28. The rotation of the second motor causes the second gear 32 to drive the second gear ring 28 to rotate, thereby causing the rotating tube 7 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating tube 7 causes the support frame 30 to drive the fan blade 27 to rotate. The airflow generated by the rotation of the fan blade 27 draws in the surrounding air and accelerates the air circulation in the combustion zone, thereby increasing the oxygen supply and promoting the combustion reaction.

[0033] Furthermore, a natural gas pipeline 11 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connection port on the second housing 9. A solenoid valve 10 is fixed to the natural gas pipeline 11 by bolts. When the solenoid valve 10 is opened, external natural gas enters the guide shell 14 connected to the second housing 9 through the natural gas pipeline 11. A protective shell 5 is detachably connected to the outer circumference of the rotating pipe 7 by bolts, and the second toothed ring 28 is located inside the protective shell 5. The protective shell 5 can protect the second toothed ring 28.

[0034] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When in use, the fixed pipe 6 is connected to the boiler heat exchange system through a pipeline, and the natural gas pipeline 11 is connected to the external natural gas supply equipment.

[0035] Open the solenoid valve 10 to allow external natural gas to enter the second housing 9 through the natural gas pipeline 11 into the guide shell 14 connected to it. At the same time, start the air pump 1. The air pump 1 delivers external gas to the guide shell 14 connected to it in the second housing 9. At this time, the two guide shells 14 contain natural gas and air respectively. The air and natural gas are discharged into the cavity of the second housing 9 through the connection port.

[0036] The first motor is started, and the rotation of the first motor causes the connecting shaft 12 to drive the stirring plate 13 to rotate, which turbulences the gas in the second shell 9 and further mixes the gas. At the same time, the rotation of the connecting shaft 12 causes the first gear 17 to drive the first gear ring 16 to rotate, which in turn causes the guide shell 14 to rotate and further disperse the gas.

[0037] When the cylinder 18 is activated, the cylinder 18 extends, causing the slip ring 26 to move along the connecting pipe 4, thereby causing the connecting rod 19 to drive the connecting block 21 to move. At this time, the top of the slide 22 moves upward along the slide groove 20, which in turn causes the baffle 24 to move upward along the frame 23. At this time, the multiple baffles 24 gradually separate, and the interior of the connecting pipe 4 is no longer blocked. The mixed gas enters the first housing 8 through the connecting pipe 4.

[0038] Ignition 29 ignites the natural gas, causing it to burn in the first housing 8. This starts the second motor, which in turn causes the second gear 32 to drive the second gear ring 28 to rotate, which in turn causes the rotating tube 7 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating tube 7 causes the support frame 30 to drive the fan blades 27 to rotate. The airflow generated by the rotation of the fan blades 27 draws in the surrounding air and accelerates the air circulation in the combustion zone, thereby increasing the oxygen supply and promoting the combustion reaction.

[0039] The high-temperature gas after combustion is output to the boiler heat exchange system through the fixed pipe 6, and the gas flow rate can be controlled by adjusting the opening of the baffle 24.

[0040] All electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power, and the main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer that can control it.

For example, they can refer to fixed connections, mechanical connections, electrical connections, or direct connections.
