DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort belong to the protection scope of the present application.
[0019] During the operation of the coal-fired unit, the boiler needs to be regularly overhauled, maintained and cleaned. The manhole door 4 is a passageway for the operator to enter and exit the inside of the boiler, and its sealing performance and opening convenience are crucial. The sealing structure of the existing manhole door of the boiler of the coal-fired unit has poor sealing effect. Since it only relies on external fixation, when the boiler is running, the high-temperature and high-pressure environment can easily cause the manhole door 4, the flange 1 and the external fixation device to loosen. This causes a gap between the manhole door 4 and the flange 1, and further causes leakage. This not only causes energy waste, but also poses a threat to the safety of surrounding equipment and personnel. The sealing structure of the quick-opening manhole door of the boiler of the coal-fired unit and the use method thereof can fix the top end and the bottom end of the manhole door 4, thereby avoiding the high-temperature and high-pressure environment causing the manhole door 4, the flange 1 and the external fixation device to loosen, causing a gap between the manhole door 4 and the flange 1, causing leakage, causing energy waste, and posing a threat to the safety of surrounding equipment and personnel.
[0020] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the present application provides a technical solution: a sealing structure of a quick-opening manhole door of a boiler of a coal-fired unit, comprising a flange 1, the top end of the flange 1 is rotationally connected with a manhole door 4, the bottom end of the manhole door 4 is fixed with a connecting piece 11, a plurality of limiting openings 12 are formed in the connecting piece 11, a first limiting piece is arranged in the flange 1, the first limiting piece comprises a plurality of fixed sleeves 6 fixed on the inner wall of the flange 1, the fixed sleeves 6 correspond to the limiting openings 12 one by one, a heat-sensitive elastic body 7 is fixed in the fixed sleeve 6, a moving block 8 is slidably connected in the fixed sleeve 6, the heat-sensitive elastic body 7 is fixed with the moving block 8, a limiting rod 9 is fixed on one side of the moving block 8, the limiting rod 9 penetrates through the fixed sleeve 6 and is inserted into the limiting opening 12, and a spring 10 is fixed between the moving block 8 and the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 6. The top end of the flange 1 is fixed with a first fixing piece 2, the end of the first fixing piece 2 is rotationally connected with a first rotating rod 3, and the first rotating rod 3 is fixed with the manhole door 4. A plurality of mounting holes 23 are formed in the top end of the flange 1 for fixing the flange 1 on the boiler.
[0021] It should be noted that when the temperature in the boiler rises, the heat-sensitive elastic body 7 expands and drives the moving block 8 to move forward. The movement of the moving block 8 drives the limiting rod 9 to move, so that the limiting rod 9 is inserted into the limiting opening 12 to fix the connecting piece 11 at the bottom end of the manhole door 4.
[0022] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the top end of the flange 1 is provided with a second limiting piece, which comprises a cover rod 17 rotatably connected to the top end of the flange 1, a plurality of moving grooves 20 are formed in the inside of the cover rod 17, a moving plate 21 is slidably connected in the moving grooves 20, a plug 22 is fixed to the bottom end of the moving plate 21, a plurality of connecting blocks 5 corresponding to the plugs 22 are fixed to the outer wall of the manhole door 4, an insertion slot 14 is formed in the top end of the connecting block 5, and the plug 22 penetrates through the cover rod 17 and is inserted into the insertion slot 14. The second limiting piece further comprises a plurality of screw rods 19 screwed to the top end of the cover rod 17, the screw rods 19 correspond to the moving plates 21 one by one, and the bottom end of the screw rod 19 is rotatably connected to the moving plate 21 in the moving groove 20. The top end of the flange 1 is fixed with a second fixing piece 15, the end of the second fixing piece 15 is rotatably connected with a second rotating rod 16, and the second rotating rod 16 is fixed with the cover rod 17. A connecting rod 18 is fixed in the cover rod 17, and the bottom end of the connecting rod 18 is in contact with the top end of the manhole door 4. The cover rod 17 and the connecting rod 18 form a mouth-shaped shape.
[0023] It should be noted that by covering the manhole door 4, the sealing gasket 13 is inserted into the flange 1; then the cover rod 17 is rotated above the manhole door 4, the screw rod 19 is rotated to drive the moving plate 21 to move downward, the moving plate 21 moves downward to drive the plug 22 to insert into the insertion slot 14 to realize limiting and fix the manhole door 4, when the boiler needs to be repaired, the screw rod 19 is rotated in the opposite direction to drive the moving plate 21 to move upward, the moving plate 21 moves upward to drive the plug 22 to move out of the insertion slot 14, then the cover rod 17 is rotated away from the manhole door 4, and finally the manhole door 4 is opened to repair the boiler. The boiler is closed and opened conveniently and quickly, and it is not necessary to install the bolts one by one between the manhole door 4 and the flange 1 and to remove them one by one later, which improves the installation and opening efficiency, and the top end and the bottom end of the manhole door 4 are fixed by the first limiting piece and the second limiting piece, which avoids the loosening of the manhole door 4, the flange 1 and the external fixing device caused by high temperature and high pressure environment, so that the gap between the manhole door 4 and the flange 1 is formed, and then leakage is caused, which not only causes energy waste, but also threatens the safety of surrounding equipment and personnel.
[0024] As shown in Figure 2 , the bottom end of the manhole door 4 is fixed with a sealing gasket 13, and the sealing gasket 13 is tightly attached to the inner wall of the flange 1. The connecting piece 11 is located on the inner side of the sealing gasket 13.
[0025] It should be noted that the sealing gasket 13 can fill the small gap between the manhole door 4 and the flange 1, prevent the internal medium (such as gas, liquid, dust, etc.) from leaking, and prevent external impurities (such as air, moisture, dust) from entering, ensuring the stability of the internal environment of the equipment or system.
[0026] As shown in Figures 1-6 A method for using the sealing structure of the manhole door of the fast-opening coal-fired unit boiler, comprising the following steps: S1: First, cover the manhole door 4 so that the sealing gasket 13 is inserted into the flange 1; S2: Then rotate the cover rod 17 above the manhole door 4, rotate the screw rod 19, so that the screw rod 19 drives the moving plate 21 to move downward, the moving plate 21 drives the insertion block 22 to insert into the insertion slot 14 to realize limiting, because the insertion block 22 is inserted into the insertion slot 14, the cover rod 17 is limited and cannot be rotated, thereby fixing the manhole door 4; S3: When the temperature in the boiler rises, the heat-sensitive elastomer 7 expands and drives the moving block 8 to move forward, the moving block 8 moves and drives the limiting rod 9 to move, so that the limiting rod 9 is inserted into the limiting opening 12, and the connecting piece 11 at the bottom end of the manhole door 4 is fixed; S4: When the boiler stops working, the temperature decreases, the heat-sensitive elastomer 7 returns to the original position, and the spring 10 and the heat-sensitive elastomer 7 drive the limiting rod 9 to return to the original position, and no longer limit and fix the connecting piece 11; S5: When the boiler needs to be repaired, rotate the screw rod 19 in the opposite direction, so that the screw rod 19 drives the moving plate 21 to move upward, the moving plate 21 moves upward and drives the insertion block 22 to move out of the insertion slot 14, then rotate the cover rod 17 away from the manhole door 4, and finally open the manhole door 4 to repair the boiler.
[0027] It should be noted that the double fixation disperses the stress generated by temperature changes, reduces the load of external fixation devices, reduces the risk of loosening and fatigue damage, prolongs the service life, and does not need manual adjustment. The internal limiting rod 9 can automatically respond to temperature changes, adapt to complex working conditions such as boiler start-stop and load fluctuation, and reduce maintenance workload.
[0028] Although embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
