Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of boiler expansion detection, in particular to a boiler expansion indicator. Background Art

[0002] The main body of the power station boiler is an all-metal structure. During the operation and shutdown of the boiler, the power station boiler will expand as a whole. The expansion amount should be within a certain range, otherwise there will be a major safety hazard. In order to detect the expansion amount, an expansion indicator is needed. The working principle of the expansion indicator is the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, and the separation of movement and static produces displacement. When the boiler is heated and pressurized, thermal expansion often occurs in the heat-sensitive components. In order to prevent the heated components from generating large thermal stress, their expansion process cannot be blocked, otherwise the heated components may be deformed or damaged; the expansion indicator records the current expansion size of the boiler to judge the current expansion of the boiler. When the expansion is abnormal, timely inspection and measures should be taken to avoid equipment damage.

[0003] At present, most expansion indicators are of contact type, which are mainly divided into two types: two-dimensional and three-dimensional. Generally, a pointer design is adopted, and a three-dimensional one is a component composed of a three-phase pointer and a corresponding direction dial. However, the actual expansion displacement often deviates from the designed amount, so repeated start-stop operation will cause dust or sediment accumulation, resulting in the pointer being stuck, punctured, and the dial panel being worn, thereby reducing the service life of the dial panel. At the same time, long-term wear also leads to errors in the expansion displacement of the actual measuring equipment. Moreover, the expansion indicators currently used mostly judge the expansion amount by manually reading the changes in the pointer on the dial. Because of the errors caused by the dial and the design, plus the errors caused by manual reading, there is a gap between the final judged expansion amount and the actual expansion amount. Moreover, the expansion of the boiler is subject to certain limitations. When the expansion is large, it is easy to cause harm. In the past, it was impossible to timely warn and remind the staff, and there were great safety hazards. For this reason, the present application proposes a boiler expansion indicator to solve this problem.

[0004] Currently, no effective solution has been proposed for the problems in the related technologies. Utility Model Content
