Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a thermocouple for monitoring the temperature of the outer side (quenching chamber side) of the plate surface of the refractory bricks at the bottom of a gasifier, in particular to a thermocouple for measuring the temperature of a gasifier brick support plate. Background Art

[0002] The gasifier is an indispensable equipment for fertilizer production. The normal and safe operation of the gasifier is related to the safety and benefits of the fertilizer plant. When the gasifier is operating normally, the temperature inside the furnace exceeds 1200℃, the pressure is greater than 5Mpa, and the process medium is synthesis gas (including H2, CO, CO2, H2S, solid particles, etc.). The gasifier is equipped with a brick support plate, which is located between the combustion chamber and the quenching chamber of the gasifier, and directly above it is the cone bottom brick of the gasifier. The temperature of the combustion chamber exceeds 1200℃, and the temperature of the quenching chamber is 200-500℃, with a large temperature difference between the upper and lower parts. When the cone bottom bricks of the gasifier become thinner or fall off, the temperature of the brick support plate will rise, so it is particularly important to monitor the temperature of the brick support plate, which can be used to determine whether the cone bottom bricks are normal during production operation. During the installation process, the measuring end of the thermocouple needs to be placed close to the surface of the brick support plate for temperature measurement. At present, the existing brick support plate thermocouples are often inserted too deep or too short after installation, and cannot achieve a tight fit. The thermocouple can only be removed and the position of the sensor and the bending of the measuring end can be readjusted. This repeated disassembly and bending process may cause damage to the thermocouple sensor and failure, affecting the subsequent use of the thermocouple. Often, new thermocouples can only be replaced or the thermocouples with loose fits are forced to continue to be used, resulting in the thermal response speed and temperature measurement accuracy of the subsequent temperature measurement points cannot be fast and unified, and cannot meet the design and process requirements. Therefore, how to achieve a close fit between the thermocouple and the surface of the brick support plate determines the accuracy and rapid response performance of the sensor. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a thermocouple for measuring the temperature of a gasification furnace supporting brick plate in view of the deficiencies of the prior art.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the measures taken by the utility model are:

[0005] A temperature measuring thermocouple for the brick supporting plate of a gasifier, comprising a sheathed thermocouple, a sensor patch, a high-pressure sealing assembly, a secondary sealing assembly, a flange assembly, a guide tube, a copper gasket and a junction box. The high-pressure sealing assembly consists of a screw base, a graphite packing, a first pressing block and a pressing screw. The flange assembly consists of a flange base, a reinforcing pipe and a flange. The secondary sealing assembly consists of an extension pipe, a sealing screw, a packing, a second pressing block and a fastening nut. The guide tube is welded to the surface of the brick supporting plate. After the sheathed thermocouple is welded to the sensor patch, it passes through the flange assembly and the high-pressure sealing assembly in reverse order and is connected into one body. The sheathed thermocouple and the sensor patch pass through the flange hole of the flange assembly and into the guide tube. The angle of the sensor patch fits the surface of the brick supporting plate. The sheathed thermocouple is close to the surface of the brick supporting plate. The high-pressure sealing assembly is locked. The copper gasket is arranged between the flange base of the flange assembly and the extension pipe of the secondary sealing assembly. The cold-end lead of the sheathed thermocouple passes through the secondary sealing assembly and is connected to the terminal in the junction box. The packing in the secondary sealing assembly presses the cold-end lead to achieve secondary sealing;

[0006] The head end of the said guide tube is cut into an inclined plane shape, and the inclination of the inclined plane shape is consistent with the inclination of the inclined plane on the brick supporting plate. A chamfer is provided at the opening of the guide tube to facilitate the installation of the sensor and the sensor patch;

[0007] A hole is opened in the middle of the said sensor patch and is fixed by spot welding at an angle with the sheathed thermocouple. A space is reserved at the head for filling brazing filler, so that the temperature measuring end of the sheathed thermocouple and the sensor patch are melted into one body, and then polished to remove excess welding slag;

[0008] The flange base, the reinforcing pipe and the flange of the said flange assembly are integrally connected by a welding connection form;

[0009] The temperature measuring point of the said sheathed thermocouple is a structure of grounded and exposed junction type;

[0010] The sheathed thermocouple and the sensor patch are connected by a brazing welding structure. After the sheathed thermocouple and the sensor patch are fitted, they are fixed by spot welding. A space is reserved in the inner hole of the sensor patch for filling silver-copper brazing filler, so that the welding joint of the sheathed thermocouple and the silver-copper brazing filler are integrated;

[0011] The graduation number of the said sheathed thermocouple is type K, N, S or R;

[0012] The sealing structure of the said high-pressure sealing assembly is: in the cavity on the screw base, the graphite packing is deformed by extrusion through the first pressing block and the pressing screw to form a seal on the outside of the sheathed thermocouple. The screw base and the pressing screw are connected by threads. The graphite packing is pressed into the cavity on the screw base. The first pressing block is squeezed between the graphite packing and the pressing screw. The sheathed thermocouple passes through the high-pressure sealing assembly, and the high-pressure sealing assembly is arranged in the extension pipe;

[0013] The sealing structure of the secondary sealing assembly is as follows: in the cavity of the sealing screw, the filler made of plastic or rubber is deformed by the second pressing block and the fastening nut, forming a sealing structure for the outside of the cold-end lead of the armored thermocouple. The sealing screw and the fastening nut are threadedly connected. The filler and the second pressing block are arranged in the cavity of the sealing screw, and the cold-end lead passes through the secondary sealing assembly.

[0014] The center line of the armored thermocouple extends to the temperature measurement node provided on the sensor patch.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: novel structure. 1. By presetting the guiding tube on the inclined surface of the brick support plate, the temperature measurement position of the thermocouple can be unified and standardized. At the same time, the temperature inside the guiding tube is more stable and not easily affected by external factors. The inclination treatment at the entrance of the guiding tube makes it easier for the thermocouple to penetrate. Through the support of the guiding tube, it can also effectively prevent the armored thermocouple from becoming soft and bent due to being in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment for a long time, resulting in wall attachment failure. 2. The armored thermocouple adopts a temperature measurement point leakage-end structure, and silver-copper brazing filler is filled and encapsulated in the patch. This structure that integrates the temperature measurement point with a metal material with high thermal conductivity can maximize the fast response performance of the thermocouple, and the brazing filler can also well protect the temperature measurement point from the influence of the medium inside the equipment. 3. The measurement end of the armored thermocouple is designed with a patch structure having the same angle as the inner surface of the equipment, increasing the fitting (heat conduction) area and effectively improving the temperature measurement accuracy and response time of the thermocouple. 4. After the armored thermocouple penetrates into the equipment, it first closely adheres to the inclined surface of the brick support plate, and then the armored thermocouple is locked by the high-pressure sealing assembly, having the performance of adjustable insertion depth, avoiding the situation that the measurement end cannot fit the surface of the measured equipment, resulting in a decrease in temperature measurement accuracy and a slow response time. 5. The armored thermocouple can ensure the safety of temperature measurement through the double-layer sealing measures of the high-pressure sealing assembly and the secondary sealing assembly. Moreover, all the sealing assemblies can be disassembled and reassembled, and except for the sealing filler, the rest can be reused, greatly reducing the maintenance cost of the thermocouple.
