TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to an air leakage prevention device for a deslagging machine during maintenance and a working method thereof, and relates to the technical field of air leakage prevention devices for passages. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the prior art, as a key auxiliary equipment of a boiler system, the deslagging machine needs to be regularly maintained or repaired for fault to ensure the stable operation of the system. However, during the maintenance of the deslagging machine, due to the direct communication between the deslagging passage and the furnace, cold air from the environment outside the system can easily enter the inside of the furnace through the passage. This phenomenon can cause a sharp drop in the temperature of the furnace and waste of energy. When the maintenance is completed, additional natural gas needs to be consumed to restore the temperature of the furnace to the normal operation temperature, which not only increases the energy consumption cost but also prolongs the time for restarting the system and reduces the overall operation efficiency.
[0003] On the other hand, during the maintenance, the high-temperature flue gas leakage or the high-temperature furnace slag falling on the combustion when the negative pressure fluctuation in the furnace forms positive pressure can scald the maintenance personnel, which directly and seriously threatens the personal safety of the on-site maintenance personnel.
[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, the application provides an air leakage prevention device for a deslagging machine during maintenance and a working method thereof. SUMMARY
