A second guide groove 231 is provided in the cathode rod 23, and the second guide groove 231 passes through the end of the cathode rod 23 near the air outlet 12.
[0033] A cooling component 3, comprising a cooling box 31 storing an insulating cooling medium, and a water pump 33 for pumping the insulating cooling medium in the cooling box 31 into the first guide groove 211 through a water inlet pipe 32; and also comprising a T-tube 34 arranged in the sleeve 21, wherein the T-tube 34 is located at one end of the cathode rod 23 away from the air outlet 12 and a gap is left between the T-tube 34 and the cathode rod 23 for the cathode rod 23 to reciprocate in the sleeve 21, the vertical end of the T-tube 34 is connected to the inlet of the first guide groove 211, and the lateral end of the T-tube 34 is dynamically sealed with a first connecting tube 35, the interior of the first connecting tube 35 is hollow, and one end of the corresponding cathode rod 23 is open to communicate with the inlet of the second guide groove 231, and the other end of the cathode rod 23 is closed, and a liquid inlet connected to the T-tube 34 is opened at the position of the cathode rod 23 corresponding to the T-tube 34;

[0035] In a specific implementation, when preparing for ignition, the driving power unit 22 drives the cathode rod 23 close to the anode ring 24 and energizes each electrode. At this time, the end of the cathode rod 23 close to the air outlet 12 undergoes an ionization process with the anode ring 24 and generates plasma. The cathode rod 23 is then moved toward the power unit 22 to move the cathode rod 23 away from the anode ring 24. At this time, an arc is generated between the end of the cathode rod 23 close to the air outlet 12 and the anode ring 24.

[0036] In the utility model, when the anode ring 24 and the cathode rod 23 are working, the insulating cooling medium exchanges heat with the anode ring 24 and the cathode rod 23 through the cooperation between the first guide groove 211, the second guide groove 231 and the cooling component 3, thereby achieving cooling, avoiding long-term overheating of the electrode, extending the life of the electrode, and ensuring the power-on efficiency.
[0037] Preferably, the power unit 22 can adopt a motor in the prior art.
[0038] Preferably, the insulating cooling medium may be insulating oil.
[0039] It should be noted that the plasma generator 2 is common knowledge to those skilled in the art, so its structure will not be described in detail here.
[0040] In one embodiment, a switch valve 4 is provided on the water inlet pipe 32, and a control component 5 is provided on the sleeve 21. The control component 5 is used to control the on and off state of the switch valve 4. When the cathode rod 23 reciprocates in the sleeve 21, it can drive the first connecting pipe 35 to move and trigger the control component 5, thereby changing the on and off state of the switch valve 4.
[0041] With this design, when the cathode rod 23 is not working, the control component 5 drives the switch valve 4 to close, and the water inlet pipe 32 is disconnected. When the cathode rod 23 is working, the control component 5 drives the switch valve 4 to open, and the water inlet pipe 32 is connected.
[0042] In one embodiment, the switch valve 4 includes a valve body 41, the interior of the valve body 41 is hollow, and interfaces connected to the water inlet pipe 32 are arranged on both sides; the dynamic seal in the valve body 41 is matched with a valve plate 42, and the valve plate 42 is provided with a through hole 43 for connecting with the interfaces on both sides of the valve body 41. The control component 5 is used to control the valve plate 42 to reciprocate in the valve body 41, so that the through hole 43 is connected with the interfaces on both sides of the valve body 41 and the interfaces on both sides of the valve body 41 are blocked.
[0043] With such a design, when the cathode rod 23 is not working, the switch valve 4 is closed, and the valve plate 42 blocks the water inlet pipe 32, thereby preventing the insulating cooling medium from flowing out of the water inlet pipe 32; when the cathode rod 23 is working, the switch valve 4 is opened, and the valve plate 42 moves in the valve body 41 until the through hole 43 and the water inlet pipe 32 are on the same axis. At this time, the water inlet pipe 32 is open, and the insulating cooling medium flows out of the water inlet pipe 32.
[0044] In one embodiment, a contact sensor 44 is disposed on the valve body 41 , and when the through hole 43 is connected to interfaces on both sides of the valve body 41 , the valve plate 42 contacts the contact sensor 44 ;
[0045] The system also includes a control processor, which is connected to the contact sensor 44 and the water pump 33 by signals.
[0046] With such a design, when the switch valve 4 is opened, the through hole 43 is connected with the interfaces on both sides of the valve body 41. At this time, the water inlet pipe 32 is connected, the valve plate 42 is in contact with the contact sensor 44, and the contact sensor 44 sends a start signal to the water pump 33 through the control processor. The water pump 33 pumps the insulating cooling medium into the water inlet pipe 32 and flows into the T-tube 34. When the switch valve 4 is closed, the valve plate 42 is no longer in contact with the contact sensor 44. At this time, the water pump 33 loses the signal and stops, and the valve plate 42 blocks the passage of the water inlet pipe 32, completing the closure of the cooling circuit.
[0047] In one embodiment, the control component 5 includes a valve stem 51 extending into the valve body 41 and connected to the valve plate 42, and also includes a hydraulic chamber 52 arranged in the sleeve 21, one end of the first connecting pipe 35 extends into the hydraulic chamber 52, and the end is provided with a push plate 53 that cooperates with the hydraulic chamber 52 in a dynamic seal;
[0048] The end of the hydraulic chamber 52 away from the first connecting pipe 35 is connected to the push chamber 54, one end of the valve stem 51 extends into the push chamber 54 and cooperates with the push chamber 54 in a dynamic seal. The hydraulic chamber 52 is filled with a pressure transmission medium between the corresponding valve stem 51 and the push plate 53.
[0049] With such a design, when the cathode rod 23 is working, the cathode rod 23 drives the first connecting tube 35 to move toward the power unit 22, and the push plate 53 moves together with the first connecting tube 35 and squeezes the pressure transmission medium in the hydraulic chamber 52, and the pressure transmission medium flows into the push chamber 54 and pushes the valve stem 51 upward, and the valve stem 51 drives the valve plate 42 to move upward until the water inlet pipe 32 is opened. When the cathode rod 23 is no longer working, the cathode rod 23 drives the push plate 53 to move toward the anode ring 24 through the first connecting tube 35, and the push plate 53 no longer squeezes the pressure transmission medium, and the pressure transmission medium flows back into the hydraulic chamber, and the valve stem 51 loses the thrust of the pressure transmission medium and slides downward, and the valve plate 42 moves downward together with the valve stem 51, and the cooling circuit is closed at this time.
[0050] Preferably, the pressure transmission medium can be a high temperature resistant medium such as water or a water-ethylene glycol mixture.
[0051] In one embodiment, the first guide groove 211 and the second guide groove 231 are spirally disposed in the corresponding sleeve 21 and cathode rod 23 .
[0052] With this design, the ends of the anode ring 24 and the cathode rod 23 close to the air outlet 12 are the main heat-generating parts, and the spiral design of the first guide groove 211 and the second guide groove 231 enables the insulating cooling medium to exchange heat with the heat-generating parts of the corresponding electrodes for a longer period of time, thereby improving the cooling efficiency.
[0053] In one embodiment, a combustion-supporting component 6 is provided in the burner outer tube 1, and the combustion-supporting component 6 includes a plurality of combustion tubes 61 distributed between the sleeve 21 and the air outlet 12 of the burner outer tube 1, and each combustion tube 61 is arranged in sequence from the sleeve 21 to the air outlet 12, and each tube diameter is set from small to large, and the combustion tube 61 is used to assist the combustion of coal powder.
[0054] With this design, when the coal powder near the sleeve 21 contacts the electric arc and is ignited, the flame will first ignite the coal powder in the combustion tube 61 closest to one end of the sleeve 21, thereby expanding the radius of the flame tongue with the center of the sleeve 21 as the center. The flame tongue ignites the coal powder in the corresponding combustion tube 61 in sequence along the direction from the sleeve 21 to the air outlet 12 until it is ejected from the burner outer tube 1, making the flame burn more fully and more evenly.
[0055] In one embodiment, a partition plate 13 is disposed in the air inlet 11 of the burner outer tube 1 . The partition plate 13 is “J”-shaped and corresponds to the curvature of the burner outer tube 1 .
[0056] With this design, when the pulverized coal enters the burner outer tube 1 , the partition plate 13 separates the pulverized coal at both ends of the partition plate 13 , reducing the accumulation of pulverized coal in the middle of the burner outer tube 1 and allowing the pulverized coal to be transported more evenly in the burner outer tube 1 .
