Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of boiler steel structure technology, and particularly relates to a boiler steel frame structure with the steam drum externally suspended, which is a boiler steel frame form that is compact in ground space and realizes the support and suspension of the steam drum. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous growth of electricity demand, the number of newly built coal-fired power plants and power plant expansion projects is increasing year by year. Among them, some power plants in the expansion projects have limited site space for new units due to the existence of existing units. Because the steam drum load is large, the traditional boiler steam drum is arranged within the column grid. The beams bearing the steam drum load are simply supported at both ends, and the load is ultimately transferred to the columns through the plate beams, and then to the foundation through the columns. When the ground space is limited, the layout of the boiler steel frame column grid is restricted, and the boiler steam drum cannot be arranged within the boiler column grid in the traditional way. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that when ground space is limited, the boiler steel frame column grid layout is restricted, and the boiler drum cannot be arranged within the boiler column grid in the traditional manner. This invention proposes a boiler steel frame structure with the boiler drum suspended externally.

[0004] The objective of this invention is achieved as follows: a boiler steel frame structure with an externally suspended steam drum, comprising a horizontal truss, a large plate beam, two boiler steel columns, and two steam drum support beams;

[0005] Both steam drum support beams are arranged horizontally. The front of the two steam drum support beams are connected by a horizontal truss, and the rear of the two steam drum support beams are connected by a large plate beam. A boiler steel column is fixed at the lower left and lower right ends of the horizontal truss. The boiler steel column is also connected to the steam drum support beam. Each steam drum support beam is provided with two vertical through holes.

[0006] Furthermore, the two steam drum support beams are parallel and symmetrical.

[0007] Furthermore, the horizontal truss is located between the two steam drum support beams.

[0008] Furthermore, the large plate girder is located at the rear of the two steam drum support beams.

[0009] Furthermore, the two steam drum support beams are symmetrically fixed on the large plate beam.

[0010] Furthermore, the top of the boiler steel column and the steam drum support beam are connected by high-strength bolts.

[0011] Furthermore, a column head plate is provided at the top of the boiler steel column, and the column head plate and the steam drum support beam are connected by high-strength bolts.

[0012] Furthermore, the boiler steel column sidewalls and the steam drum support beams are connected by diagonal bracing.

[0013] Furthermore, the diagonal bracing is a box-shaped structure.

[0014] Furthermore, the length of the drum support beam on the left side of the boiler steel column is less than the length of the drum support beam on the right side of the boiler steel column.

[0015] Beneficial effects:

[0016] This design proposes a novel boiler drum support system. The drum support beam is cantilevered, and the position of the boiler steel column is adjusted so that the beam bearing the drum load acts directly on the top of the boiler steel column. The main load of the drum is directly transferred to the foundation through the top of the steel column. A set of horizontal trusses is arranged to ensure the overall stability of the drum support beam. This design achieves the support of the drum by rationally arranging the boiler steel frame under limited site space. Attached Figure Description
