Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ash removal, in particular to a flue ash removal device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the production and operation of thermal power plants, the inner wall of the flue, as the key channel for conveying flue gas, is a long-standing and urgent technical problem. Impurities such as fly ash and unburned carbon particles carried by flue gas will gradually deposit on the inner wall of the flue, forming an ash layer.

[0003] From the perspective of energy efficiency, ash deposition can significantly reduce the heat exchange efficiency of the flue, increasing fuel consumption. According to industry statistics, for every 10mm increase in flue ash thickness, the thermal efficiency may decrease by 2%-5%, directly leading to an increase in the operating cost of the power plant. From the perspective of operational safety, excessive ash deposition can easily cause flue blockage, forcing the unit to shut down unexpectedly. Each shutdown for maintenance not only results in a loss of power generation revenue, but also requires a large amount of manpower and resources for cleaning operations. More seriously, ash deposition may occur under certain conditions, causing impact damage to equipment below the flue, and even causing safety accidents.

[0004] Currently, flue ash removal mainly uses the following methods: Manual knocking for ash removal: relying on manual tools to knock the outer wall or inner wall of the flue, this method is extremely inefficient, with an average daily cleaning area of less than 5㎡ per person, and has high labor intensity and a poor working environment (high temperature and high dust). The ash removal effect is affected by the force and frequency of manual operation, and the ash is not completely removed, leaving dead angles.

[0005] Traditional mechanical vibration for ash removal: using a rigid vibration mechanism (such as a heavy hammer type vibrator) to impact the flue for ash removal. Although this method improves efficiency to some extent, it has obvious defects: first, the rigid impact causes severe wear and tear to the flue, shortening its service life and increasing equipment maintenance costs; second, the ash after vibration is mostly accumulated at the bottom of the flue, lacking an effective ash removal mechanism and easily forming secondary ash deposition; third, the vibration mechanism vibrates violently during operation, affecting the stability of its own structure and the flue, making it difficult to meet the needs of flue ash removal in long-distance and complex conditions. SUMMARY

[0006] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present application is proposed.

[0007] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides the following technical solutions: a flue ash removal device, comprising a support plate, a scattering assembly arranged at one end of the support plate, a buffer assembly arranged on the outer wall of the support plate, and a dust collecting assembly arranged at the other end of the support plate.

[0008] As a preferred scheme of the flue ash removal device, the outer wall of the stirring blade is provided with a plurality of dispersing blades in a circumferential array by bolts, and the dispersing blades are made of rubber material.

[0009] As a preferred scheme of the flue ash removal device, the buffer assembly comprises a fixed plate connected to the outer wall of the support plate by welding, and side plates movably arranged on both sides of the fixed plate.

[0010] As a preferred scheme of the flue ash removal device, the outer wall of each side plate is provided with a wheel body.

[0011] As a preferred scheme of the flue ash removal device, the outer wall of each side plate is provided with a pull rod.

[0012] As a preferred scheme of the flue ash removal device, an elastic member is arranged between the two pull rods.

[0013] As a preferred scheme of the flue ash removal device, a screw rod is arranged in the fixed plate for connecting with the support plate.

[0014] As a preferred scheme of the flue ash removal device, a first threaded groove is arranged in the fixed plate.

[0022] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0023] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application, but the present application can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without departing from the connotation of the present application, therefore the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0024] Secondly, the "one embodiment" or "embodiment" referred to herein means that the specific features, structures or characteristics can be included in at least one implementation of the present application. "In one embodiment" appearing in different places in the specification does not mean the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0025] The support plate 10; and the scattering assembly 20 arranged at one end of the support plate 10, comprising a rotating main shaft 21, a supporting framework 211 arranged on the outer wall of the main shaft 21, and stirring blades 22 arranged outside the supporting framework 211; and the buffer assembly 30 arranged on the outer wall of the support plate 10; and the dust collecting assembly 40 arranged at the other end of the support plate 10, comprising a fixed disc 41 connected with the support plate 10 through bolts and a conical plate 42 detachably connected with the fixed disc 41.

[0026] The outer wall of the stirring blades 22 is provided with dispersing blades 222 in a circumferential array through bolts, and the dispersing blades 222 are made of rubber material. The buffer assembly 30 comprises a fixed plate 31 connected with the outer wall of the support plate 10 through welding, side plates 311 movably arranged on both sides of the fixed plate 31, and wheel bodies 32 arranged on the outer wall of each side plate 311.

[0027] The outer wall of each side plate 311 is screwed with a pull rod 312, and an elastic member 33 is sleeved between the two pull rods 312. A screw rod 412 is arranged in the fixed disc 41 for connecting with the support plate 10. A first screw groove 411 is arranged in the fixed disc 41, a second screw groove 421 matched with the first screw groove 411 is arranged on the outer wall of the conical plate 42, and a push-pull rod 43 is mounted on the outer wall of the conical plate 42 through bolts.

[0028] The support plate 10 for bearing various functional assemblies is made of a rigid material with suitable strength. The plate body can be provided with a corresponding reinforcing rib structure according to the assembly scene to improve its bearing capacity and anti-deformation performance, thereby providing a stable assembly reference for the scattering assembly 20, the buffer assembly 30 and the dust collecting assembly 40, and ensuring the overall stability during the collaborative operation of the assemblies. The scattering assembly 20 arranged at one end of the support plate 10 has a main shaft 21 that can stably rotate. The main shaft 21 is used to transmit rotary power to drive the subsequent components to work. The supporting framework 211 mounted on the outer wall of the main shaft 21 is tightly fixed to the outer wall of the main shaft 21 and can rotate synchronously with the main shaft 21. The structure of the supporting framework 211 is matched with the inner profile of the stirring blades 22 to realize precise positioning and assembly of the stirring blades 22. The stirring blades 22 fixed outside the supporting framework 211 are mainly used for scattering the materials flowing through to ensure uniform dispersion of the materials. The buffer assembly 30 arranged on the outer wall of the support plate 10 is used to relieve the vibration generated during the operation of the scattering assembly 20, so as to avoid the transmission of vibration to the overall structure and cause the loosening of components. The dust collecting assembly 40 arranged at the other end of the support plate 10 is used to collect the dust materials generated during the scattering operation and reduce the pollution caused by dust leakage. The fixed disc 41 of the dust collecting assembly 40 is tightly connected with the support plate 10 through bolts. The connection part can be provided with a sealing washer to improve the sealing performance. The conical plate 42 is detachably connected with the fixed disc 41, which is convenient for cleaning and maintenance of the interior of the dust collecting assembly 40.

[0029] The outer wall of the stirring blade 22 is detachably bolted with a circumferentially arrayed dispersing blade 222. This circumferential array arrangement allows the dispersing blades 222 to disperse the material from all directions, avoiding any dead zones. The dispersing blades 222 are made of rubber, which has good elasticity and wear resistance. This material can buffer the impact force of the material through elastic deformation, preventing damage to the material being processed, and also reduces wear on the dispersing blades 222, extending their service life. Furthermore, the bolted connection allows for easy disassembly and replacement of the dispersing blades 222 after wear, reducing maintenance costs. In the buffer assembly 30, the fixed plate 31 is firmly connected to the outer wall of the support plate 10 by welding, with no obvious gaps at the weld, ensuring the assembly stability of the buffer assembly 30. The side plates 311 are movably mounted on both sides of the fixed plate 31. The wheels 32 mounted on their outer walls convert the sliding friction between the side plates 311 and the external structure into rolling friction, reducing frictional loss during relative movement and improving the smoothness of the buffering process.

[0030] Each side plate 311 has a tie rod 312 screwed onto its outer wall. The elastic element 33 sleeved between the two tie rods 312 is always in a pre-tight state. When the buffer assembly 30 is subjected to vibration force, the elastic element 33 can absorb vibration energy through its own elastic deformation, thereby weakening the impact of vibration on the support plate 10 and the overall structure. In addition, the tie rod 312 can limit the elastic element 33 to prevent the elastic element 33 from shifting when it deforms. The screw 412 inside the fixed plate 41 is used to form a secondary reinforcement connection with the support plate 10, further improving the tightness of the connection between the fixed plate 41 and the support plate 10, and preventing the connection from loosening due to vibration during operation; the first threaded groove 411 inside the fixed plate 41 is adapted to the second threaded groove 421 on the outer wall of the conical plate 42, and the two are detachably fixed through thread engagement, making assembly and disassembly operations convenient; the push-pull rod 43 installed on the outer wall of the conical plate 42 by bolts is easy for the staff to hold and operate, and helps the conical plate 42 and the fixed plate 41 to quickly connect and separate, improving the maintenance efficiency of the dust collection assembly 40.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the methods and devices described in detail above are merely embodiments, and those skilled in the art can modify these embodiments in different ways as long as they do not depart from the scope of the present invention.
