[0023] like Figure 1 The natural gas-air mixing device shown comprises: a first gas mixing chamber 1 , a second gas mixing chamber 9 , and a controller. A gas mixing pipe 8 is connected between the first gas mixing chamber 1 and the second gas mixing chamber 9 .
[0024] The first gas mixing chamber 1 is provided with an air intake pipe 3, a natural gas intake pipe 4, a first cylinder 61, and a second cylinder 62, and a gas mixing plate 7 is provided in the first gas mixing chamber 1. The air intake pipe 3 and the natural gas intake pipe 4 are arranged on both sides of the first gas mixing chamber 1, and an air regulating valve 2 is installed on the air intake pipe 3, and a natural gas regulating valve 5 is installed on the natural gas intake pipe 4. Both the air regulating valve 2 and the natural gas regulating valve 5 are gas flow regulating valves, and the ratio of the air input to the natural gas input in the device is adjusted by adjusting the opening of the flow regulating valve.
[0025] There are two mixing plates 7, and the upper and lower side walls of the first mixing chamber 1 are provided with sliding grooves for slidingly cooperating with the mixing plates 7; at the same time, the first cylinder 61 and the second cylinder 62 are also relatively arranged on both sides of the first mixing chamber 1, and one mixing plate 7 is connected to the first cylinder 61 arranged on the left, and the other mixing plate 7 is connected to the second cylinder 62 arranged on the right. Specifically, the output end of the first cylinder 61 and the output end of the second cylinder 62 penetrate the first mixing chamber 1 and are connected to the mixing plates 7, and the mixing plates 7 are pushed to move in the first mixing chamber 1 by the first cylinder 61 and the second cylinder 62. The mixing plates 7 are evenly provided with air holes for gas to pass through, and the gas in the first mixing chamber 1 is stirred by the mixing plates 7 during the movement of the mixing plates 7, so as to further promote gas mixing and prevent gas stratification.
[0026] An air outlet is provided at the bottom of the first mixing chamber 1, and an air inlet is provided on the left side of the second mixing chamber 9. The air outlet on the first mixing chamber 1 is connected to the input end of the mixing pipe 8, and the air inlet of the second mixing chamber 9 is connected to the output end of the mixing pipe 8.
[0027] like Figure 2 The second gas mixing chamber 9 is shown to be provided with a mixed gas outlet pipe 15, which is provided at the top of the second gas mixing chamber 9 for outputting the mixed gas, and the mixed gas outlet pipe 15 is installed with a gas outlet regulating valve 14 for controlling the output gas flow rate.
[0028] The second gas mixing chamber 9 is also sealed with an air guide plate 10, which is a spiral plate tightly connected to the upper wall and the lower wall of the second gas mixing chamber 9, and a spiral gas mixing passage is formed between the outer wall of the air guide plate 10 and the inner wall of the second gas mixing chamber 9. The inlet of the spiral gas mixing passage is connected to the air inlet of the second gas mixing chamber 9, and the outlet of the spiral gas mixing passage is connected to the mixed gas outlet pipe 15. After the mixed gas is input from the air inlet of the second gas mixing chamber 9, it is continuously mixed in the spiral gas mixing passage, and finally output to the mixed gas outlet pipe 15, and then output from the mixed gas outlet pipe 15.
[0029] In order to further enhance the mixing effect, a motor 11 is provided on the second mixing chamber 9, and a rotating shaft 12 is installed at the output end of the motor 11. The rotating shaft 12 extends to the center of the second mixing chamber 9, and the height of the rotating shaft 12 is less than the height of the second mixing chamber 9. A mixing fan 13 is provided at the extending end of the rotating shaft 12. The mixing fan 13 is rotated based on the motor 11 to enhance the gas mixing effect. The mixed gas outlet pipe 15 is arranged directly above the mixing fan 13.
[0030] The device is also provided with a controller, which is used to connect the air regulating valve 2, the natural gas regulating valve 5, the cylinder, the motor 11 and the air outlet regulating valve 14. The controller controls the opening of the air regulating valve 2 and the natural gas regulating valve 5 to adjust the intake flow of natural gas and air, accurately controls the proportion of stable and uniform mixing of gas and air, and delivers corresponding proportions of gas for combustion in different environments; controls the cylinder to adjust the movement speed of the mixing plate 7, controls the motor 11 to adjust the rotation frequency of the mixing fan 13, and controls the opening of the air outlet regulating valve 14 to adjust the flow of the output mixed gas.
[0031] In one embodiment, the controller adjusts the opening of the air regulating valve 2 and the natural gas regulating valve 5 so that the intake ratio of natural gas to air is 1:9.52. The main component of natural gas is methane. When natural gas burns, one methane molecule burns with two oxygen molecules to obtain one carbon dioxide molecule and two water molecules. A unit volume of methane requires twice the volume of oxygen to be fully burned. The content of oxygen in the air is 21%, so a unit volume of methane requires 9.52 times the air to be fully burned.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that, in this article, relationships such as first and second, etc. are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
