Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gate opening and closing, and in particular to an external gate feedback device. Background Art
[0002] At present, the coal feeder inlet gate uses a hydraulic gate, which is an important component of the power plant boiler coal feeder system. It is located at the coal feeder inlet at the bottom of the coal bunker. Its main function is to control the feed amount of the coal feeder and, when necessary, block the flow of coal to ensure the normal operation of the coal feeder.
[0003] like Figure 4 As shown, the coal feeder inlet gate is mainly composed of a gate frame, a gate, an oil motor, a hydraulic cylinder, a travel switch, etc.
[0004] Door opening principle: Start the oil motor and drive the gate door to move to the right through the hydraulic cylinder. When the stroke block on the gate leaves the closed position stroke switch, the closed position signal disappears. When the stroke block on the gate contacts the open position stroke switch, the oil motor stops.
[0005] Closing principle: Start the oil motor and drive the gate door to move to the left through the hydraulic cylinder. When the stroke block on the gate leaves the open position stroke switch, the open position signal disappears. When the stroke block on the gate contacts the closed position stroke switch, the oil motor stops.
[0006] However, due to the gap between the gate plate and the gate frame, when the coal feeder is running, the coal powder in the coal drop pipe enters the gate frame through the gaps of the gate plate, resulting in the following problems:
[0007] 1. If a certain amount of coal powder enters the gate frame, it will cause the travel switch to get stuck, causing the travel switch to fail to operate.
[0008] 2. If the coal powder contains a lot of water, it will cause the contacts of each travel switch to be abnormally connected, resulting in the gate door being in the open and closed travel states at the same time.
[0009] 3. Because there is no status monitoring means outside the gate, when the gate is open and closed at the same time, it is impossible to accurately judge the opening state of the gate, which affects the safe operation of the coal feeder. Utility Model Content
[0010] The utility model provides an external gate door feedback device, which aims to place a travel switch externally to prevent coal powder from directly contacting the travel switch and affecting the normal operation of the travel switch.

[0021] Beneficial effect: The sealing gasket in the sealing assembly in this scheme can mainly play a sealing role, while the sealing cylinder is used to press the sealing gasket tightly, and the sealing plate is used to connect with the gate frame, thereby limiting and fixing the sealing gasket, ensuring a stable connection between the entire sealing assembly and the gate frame, and playing a stable sealing role.
[0022] Furthermore, the inner wall of the inner hole of the sealing gasket is in contact with the outer side of the travel rod.
[0023] Beneficial effect: Such an arrangement can improve the sealing effect of the sealing gasket.
[0024] Furthermore, the sealing gasket is a rubber gasket.

[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the utility model more clearly understood, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings. The schematic implementation manner of the utility model and its description are only used to explain the utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model.
[0043] Example 1
[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment 1 provides an external gate door feedback device, including a gate frame 1, a gate 2, and a power unit. In this embodiment, the power unit includes an oil motor 4 and a hydraulic cylinder 3. The gate 2 is located in the gate frame 1 and is used to open and close the coal feeder inlet.
[0045] The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 3 is connected to the gate plate 2, and the gate plate 2 is driven to open and close the coal feeder inlet through the telescopic movement of the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 3.
[0046] The oil motor 4 is connected to the hydraulic cylinder 3. In this embodiment, the left end of the gate plate 2 is the head end of the gate plate 2, and the right end of the gate plate 2 is the tail end of the gate plate 2. A travel rod 7 is connected to the tail end of the gate plate 2. A through hole is opened at the tail end of the gate plate 2. One end of the travel rod 7 passes through the through hole of the gate frame 1 and slides with the through hole, so that the hydraulic cylinder 3 can drive the travel rod 7 to move horizontally.
[0047] A travel switch fixing bracket 10 is connected to the outer side of the rear end of the gate frame 1 . In this embodiment, the travel switch fixing bracket 10 is fixed to the outer side of the rear end of the gate frame 1 by welding.
[0048] The travel switch fixing bracket 10 is connected to the in-position travel switch 9 and the open-position travel switch 11. When the end of the travel rod 7 contacts the closed-position travel switch 9, the gate 2 is in a closed state, and when the end of the travel rod 7 contacts the open-position travel switch 11, the gate 2 is in an open state.
[0049] In this embodiment, the travel switch fixing bracket 10 is located on the upper side of the travel rod 7 ( Figure 1 Perspective), and the travel switch fixing bracket 10 and the travel rod 7 are arranged parallel to each other, the closed position travel switch 9 is located on the left part of the travel switch fixing bracket 10, and the open position travel switch 11 is located on the right part of the travel switch fixing bracket 10.
[0050] In this embodiment, the travel rod 7 includes a rod portion 701 and a limit portion 702. One end of the rod portion 701 is welded or detachably connected to the rear end of the gate plate 2. In this embodiment, the rod portion 701 is welded and fixed to the gate plate 2. The other end of the rod portion 701 is vertically connected to the limit portion 702.

The rod portion 701 passes through the through hole at the rear end of the gate frame 1, the limit portion 702 is located on the outside of the gate frame 1, and the closed position travel switch 9 is located on the left side of the limit portion 702.
[0051] The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0052] Door opening principle: start the oil motor 4, which provides hydraulic power for the hydraulic cylinder 3. The gate 2 of the gate door is driven to move to the right through the retraction movement of the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 3. The gate 2 drives the travel rod 7 to move. When the limit part 702 of the travel rod 7 leaves the closed position travel switch 9, the closed position signal disappears. When the limit part 702 of the travel rod 7 contacts the open position travel switch 11, the oil motor 4 stops.
[0053] Door closing principle: start the oil motor 4, drive the gate door gate 2 to move to the left through the hydraulic cylinder 3, and the gate 2 drives the travel rod 7 to move. When the limit part 702 of the travel rod 7 leaves the open position travel switch 11, the open position signal disappears. When the limit part 702 of the travel rod 7 contacts the closed position travel switch 9, the oil motor 4 stops.
[0054] In this embodiment, the closed position travel switch 9 and the open position travel switch 11 are located on the outside of the gate frame 1, which can effectively avoid contact with the coal powder leaked in the gate frame 1, effectively isolate the coal powder, and solve the problem of travel switch jamming due to coal powder entering the gate frame 1. Moreover, the actual switching state of the gate door can be intuitively observed outside the gate door based on the position relationship between the limit part 702 of the travel rod 7 and the closed position travel switch 9 and the open position travel switch 11.
[0055] Example 2
[0056] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that: in this embodiment, a sealing assembly 8 is provided at the through hole at the rear end of the gate frame 1, and a recessed block 101 is provided at the rear end of the gate plate 2, so that the recessed block 101 has a concave cavity for accommodating the sealing assembly 8, the recessed block 101 and the gate plate 2 are integrally formed, the through hole at the rear end of the gate plate 2 is located on the recessed block 101 and communicates with the concave cavity of the recessed block 101, the sealing assembly 8 can be inserted into the concave cavity of the recessed block 101 and connected to the rear end of the gate plate 2, and the travel rod 7 passes through the through hole and the sealing assembly 8 in sequence.
[0057] Specifically: In this embodiment, the sealing component 8 is detachably connected to the gate frame 1, and the sealing component 8 includes a sealing plate 801, a sealing cylinder 802 and a sealing gasket 803. The sealing gasket 803 is located in the concave cavity of the concave block 101. In this embodiment, two sealing gaskets 803 are provided, and the sealing cylinder 802 is connected to the sealing plate 801. In this embodiment, the sealing plate 801 is in the shape of a circular plate, and the sealing plate 801 and the sealing cylinder 802 are integrally formed.
[0058] The sealing cylinder 802 is inserted into the concave cavity of the concave block 101 and abuts against the sealing gasket 803. The sealing plate 801 is located outside the concave cavity of the concave block 101 and connected to the gate frame 1.

The sealing plate 801 and the gate frame 1 are detachably connected to each other by inserting bolts 12 into the bolt holes, thereby realizing a detachable connection relationship between the sealing assembly 8 and the gate frame 1, which is convenient for replacement and installation.
[0059] Both the sealing cylinder 802 and the sealing gasket 803 have an inner hole for the travel rod 7 to pass through.

The inner hole diameter of the sealing gasket 803 can be equal to or less than the diameter of the rod portion 701 of the travel rod 7, so that the sealing performance between the sealing gasket 803 and the travel rod 7 is better. At the same time, the rod portion 701 of the travel rod 7 can slide axially in the inner hole of the sealing gasket 803, and the aperture of the through hole and the inner hole of the sealing cylinder 802 is larger than the diameter of the rod portion 701 of the travel rod 7, which can reduce the sliding resistance of the rod portion 701 of the travel rod 7.
[0060] The sealing assembly 8 in this embodiment can further prevent coal powder from flying out of the gate frame 1, and can further prevent coal powder from contacting the travel switch, thereby further preventing coal powder from directly contacting the travel switch and affecting the normal operation of the travel switch.
[0061] Example 3
[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that: in this embodiment, the travel rod 7 is detachably connected to the tail end of the gate plate 2. Specifically, a travel rod fixing block 5 is connected to the tail end of the gate plate 2. In this embodiment, the travel rod fixing block 5 is welded and fixed to the gate plate 2, and the travel rod 7 is detachably connected to the travel rod fixing block 5.
