Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chimney installation, in particular to an inner sealing support structure of a chimney flange connection. Background Art

[0002] A chimney is a structure that provides ventilation for hot flue gas or smoke from boilers, fireplaces, blast furnaces, etc. Chimneys are usually vertical to ensure smooth flow of gas. Small and medium-sized chimneys usually use composite steel plates bent into a cylindrical shape, and the connecting seams at both ends of the plate are welded to form a pipe section. Traditional chimneys are composed of multiple pipe sections connected together, and adjacent pipe sections need to be sealed to avoid chimney leakage.

[0003] The inner wall of a traditional chimney needs to be coaxially processed with a corrosion-resistant coating to prevent the carbon steel layer of the chimney body from contacting the flue gas and causing corrosion of the chimney. However, due to construction conditions, it is difficult to fully cover the joints of the various pipe sections of the chimney with a corrosion-resistant coating to seal the smoke inside the chimney. In addition, the chimney is prone to shaking when affected by multiple factors such as wind during use, which in turn causes gaps between the pipe sections. The smoke in the chimney will still corrode the carbon steel layer of the pipe sections. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] The present application embodiment discloses a chimney flange connection inner sealing support structure, referring to Figure 1, including a plurality of pipe segments 1 connected coaxially end to end, each pipe segment 1 having a corrosion-resistant layer 2 fixedly disposed on its inner wall, the corrosion-resistant layer 2 being made of corrosion-resistant material, such as stainless steel or titanium alloy, each pipe segment 1 having two ends coaxially welded and fixedly connected with a connecting flange 11, and the connecting flanges 11 at both ends of the pipe segment 1 having holes directly through them. After two root pipe segments 1 are butt-jointed, the holes on the connecting flanges 11 are aligned, and then a flange bolt 12 is passed through the two connecting flanges 11 and then threadedly connected with a flange nut, thereby connecting the two pipe segments 1 into one.

[0020] An anti-corrosion strip assembly is arranged between adjacent pipe sections 1. In the embodiment of the present application, the anti-corrosion strip assembly includes two corner rings 3 with L-shaped cross-sections. The corner rings 3 are rolled into a right-angle steel bar by a special rolling machine, and then the two ends of the angle steel bar are welded and fixed to form the corner rings 3. One end edge of the corner ring 3 is coaxially welded and fixed to the inner wall of the corrosion-resistant layer 2, and one end edge extends to the connecting flange 11 of the pipe section 1. The two corner rings 3 are respectively connected to the two adjacent pipe sections 1, and the corner rings 3 are made of the same material as the corrosion-resistant layer 2. When the two pipe sections 1 are connected as one, the two corner rings 3 between the adjacent connecting flanges 11 are in close contact. By using two corner rings 3 of the same material as the corrosion-resistant layer 2 to block the inner side of the joint of the two pipe sections 1, and sealingly connecting with the corrosion-resistant layer 2 by welding, when the two pipe sections 1 are connected to each other, the two corner rings 3 are squeezed between the two connecting flanges 11 and forced to be in close contact with each other, thereby isolating and sealing the seam between the corrosion-resistant layer 2 on the inner side of the pipe section 1. Moreover, the integrally rolled corner ring 3 has a stable overall structure. When the chimney is in use and shaken, the corner ring 3 and the corrosion-resistant part, as well as the corner ring 3 and the connecting flange 11, have stable structures. Compared with the structure formed by welding a cylinder and a circular ring, it can effectively avoid damage and air leakage at the joints.

[0021] Among them, a flange rib plate can be arranged between the outer wall of the pipe segment 1 and the connecting flange 11 to enhance the structural stability between the connecting flange 11 and the pipe segment 1. The flange rib plate has at least one right angle. The two right-angle sides of the flange rib plate are respectively welded and fixed to the connecting flange 11 and the outer wall of the pipe segment 1. Multiple flange rib plates are evenly spaced along the circumference of the pipe segment 1.

[0022] Furthermore, a fourth sealing ring 4 is provided between the joints of two adjacent pipe sections 1, the fourth sealing ring 4 is located outside the anti-corrosion strip assembly, and the fourth sealing ring 4 elastically contacts the two connecting flanges 11. The fourth sealing ring 4 can ensure that there is no air leakage between the pipe sections 1.

[0023] Example 2

[0024] Reference Figure 2 The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that the structure of the corner ring 3 is different.

[0025] In another embodiment of the present application, a first annular groove 111 is coaxially provided on the connection flange 11 at one end of the pipe segment 1, a first elastic protrusion 31 is provided on the corner ring 3 near the first annular groove 111 and protrudes into the first annular groove 111, and a first sealing ring is filled in the first annular groove 111. A second annular groove 112 is provided on the connection flange 11 at the other end of the pipe segment 1 away from the first annular groove 111, the second annular groove 112 is concentric with and staggered with the first annular groove 111, a second elastic protrusion 32 is provided on the corner ring 3 near the second annular groove 112 and protrudes into the second annular groove 112, and a second sealing ring is filled in the second annular groove 112.

[0026] When two pipe segments 1 are connected and the connecting flange 11 is squeezed by the flange bolts 12, the first elastic protrusion 31 on one corner ring 3 is inserted into the first annular groove 111 on the connecting flange 11 at the end of the pipe segment 1 where it is located, and the second elastic protrusion 32 on the other corner ring 3 is inserted into the second annular groove 112 on the connecting flange 11 at the end of the other pipe segment 1 at the joint. By the cooperation between the first annular groove 111 and the first elastic protrusion 31 and the cooperation between the second annular groove 112 and the second elastic protrusion 32, the relative position of the corner ring 3 after it extends between the two connecting flanges 11 during the installation process can be effectively limited, so as to avoid the corner ring 3 being squeezed into the inside of the pipe segment 1 and causing a gap in the welding seam between the corner ring 3 and the inner wall of the pipe segment 1.

[0027] Furthermore, the first filling part 33 and the second filling part 34 adapted to the first elastic protrusion 31 and the second elastic protrusion 32 are respectively arranged on the corner rings 3 at both ends of the pipe section 1, and a third sealing ring is also filled and arranged between the first filling part 33, the first elastic protrusion 31 and the second filling part 34, and the second elastic protrusion 32. When the two corner rings 3 are attached to each other, the first filling parts 33 of the two corner rings 3 are engaged with the first elastic protrusion 31, the second filling part 34 is engaged with the second elastic protrusion 32, and the third sealing ring is filled between the two, which can limit the positions of the two corner rings 3 while maintaining the sealing of the joint between the two angle iron rings.

[0028] The first sealing ring, the second sealing ring, the third sealing ring and the fourth sealing ring 4 can all be made of high temperature resistant rubber sealing rings, or asbestos ropes impregnated with high temperature resistant sealant, which can effectively ensure the sealing and isolation effect of chimney smoke.

[0029] The parts with the first elastic protrusion 31 and the second elastic protrusion 32 on the two corner rings 3 can be formed by stamping metal rings and sleeved on the outer side of the corner rings 3, and fixed to the corner rings 3 by spot welding or other methods.
