Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of incineration, in particular to an incinerator decoking robot. Background Art

[0002] When incinerating solid waste, due to the complex composition of the solid waste entering the furnace, when the temperature in the furnace is higher than the melting point of the material, it will volatilize and melt under high temperature and coke on the inner wall of the furnace of the incinerator, and gradually spread and grow into dense and thick coke blocks, covering the four walls of the incinerator in the auxiliary burner area and below, resulting in reduced incineration capacity and efficiency, affecting boiler output, and in serious cases, the furnace must be forced to be shut down for decoking.

[0003] The coking phenomenon in the furnace of the incinerator is difficult to avoid. If it is mild, it needs to be removed online, and if it is severe, the furnace must be shut down for decoking. Online decoking means that the furnace door is opened without stopping the furnace, and the coking is done manually with a long pickaxe at a fixed point; while decoking by stopping the furnace traditionally requires manual entry into the furnace to clean the coke. Manual decoking is time-sensitive, heavy, labor-intensive, and has high temperature radiation heat in the furnace, a harsh working environment, and prominent construction safety issues.

[0004] According to the survey, when the furnace is shut down for decoking, the only few decoking machines use impact drills for decoking. These machines are bulky and require high-altitude wire rope hoisting operations inside the furnace. Moreover, they are suspended in the air during operation, have no fulcrum, and are difficult to counterweight. The decoking effect and efficiency still need to be improved.

[0028] The present utility model provides a technical solution for a coking removal robot for an incinerator:

[0031] As Figure 4As shown, the hammer mechanism 4 mainly includes a base arm 47, a support arm 48, an end arm 49 and a hammer drill 45. The top of the base arm 47 and the bottom of the support arm 48, and the top of the support arm 48 and one end of the end arm 49 are connected and fixed by a transverse bolt structure. A right first hydraulic cylinder 42 is arranged between the base arm 47 and the support arm 48, a right second hydraulic cylinder 43 is arranged between the support arm 48 and the end arm 49, and a right third hydraulic cylinder 44 is arranged between the end arm 49 and the hammer drill 45.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the bucket mechanism 5 mainly includes a fixed arm 56, an intermediate arm 57 and a terminal arm 58. The fixed arm 56 and the intermediate arm 57, as well as the intermediate arm 57 and the terminal arm 58 are connected and fixed by transverse bolts. A left first hydraulic cylinder 51 is installed between the fixed arm 56 and the intermediate arm 57, a left second hydraulic cylinder 52 is installed between the intermediate arm 57 and the terminal arm 58, a bucket 54 is installed at the terminal position of the terminal arm 58, and a left third hydraulic cylinder 53 is arranged between the terminal arm 58 and the bucket 54.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the rotating device 3 mainly includes an assembly frame 34, a protective shell 35, a motor 31, a worm 33 and a rotating structure 32. The protective shell 35 is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the assembly frame 34, the motor 31 is installed on the side of the assembly frame 34, the worm 33 is installed in the inner cavity of the protective shell 35, and the rotating structure 32 is installed on the top of the protective shell 35.

[0034] Among them, Figure 4 As shown, a flange structure 46 for mounting the hammer mechanism 4 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the base arm 47 , and a right four-hydraulic cylinder 41 is arranged between the flange structure 46 and the base arm 47 .

[0035] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, a connection shell 55 for mounting the bucket mechanism 5 is mounted at the bottom of the fixed arm 56 via fasteners.

[0036] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, one end of the worm 33 is butt-jointed with the output shaft of the motor 31 via a coupling, and tooth structures are equidistantly arranged at the bottom of the side of the rotary structure 32 , and the tooth structures are meshed with the worm 33 .

[0037] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, the worm 33 is located at one side of the rotary structure 32 , and the rotary structure 32 is rotatably installed in the protective shell 35 .

[0038] Among them, Figure 1 As shown, the connecting frame 2 is installed at the upper and lower positions of the rotating device 3, and the bucket mechanism 5 and the hammer mechanism 4 are installed at the lower position of the connecting frame 2.

[0039] Among them, as Figure 4 shown, a chain hoist 1 is provided at the top of the connecting frame 2.

[0040] In this embodiment, when using this technical solution to perform decoking operations on the inner wall of the incinerator, a remote controller is used to control the actions of the chain hoist 1 and the slewing device 3. Before decoking, the entire robot structure is lifted into the incinerator by the chain hoist 1. A camera structure for visual recognition is installed on the decoking robot. In this way, when operating the decoking robot, the internal operation situation of the incinerator can be understood and observed in real time.

[0041] According to the images of the visual structure, the decoking robot is guided and operated to move and adjust the angle. At the same time, it can also be judged through the visual mechanism where decoking operations need to be performed.

[0042] When the decoking robot moves to a suitable position, the slewing device 3 is controlled to act through the remote controller. Specifically: The motor 31 drives the worm 33 to rotate through its output shaft. When the worm 33 rotates, it can drive the slewing structure 32 to rotate through the tooth structure. Thus, the connecting frame 2 is driven to rotate by the slewing structure 32. When the connecting frame 2 rotates, the bucket mechanisms 5 and the hammering mechanisms 4 on both sides can be driven to rotate, and then adjusted to a suitable position.

[0043] After that, the hydraulic unit on the bucket mechanism 5 is controlled to act through the remote controller, so that the bucket 54 abuts against the inner wall of the incinerator. Then, the hydraulic mechanism on the hammering mechanism 4 is controlled to act through the remote controller, so that the hammer drill 45 continuously hammers the coking area on the inner wall of the incinerator. The bucket mechanism 5 provides support on the inner wall of the incinerator, providing a reverse supporting force for the hammering mechanism 4, that is, constituting a force attachment point and an auxiliary supporting function, used to offset the reaction force of the hammering mechanism 4, and at the same time also playing an appropriate anti-impact protection for the furnace wall. In this way, the coking in the furnace can be removed and the operation can be carried out smoothly.

[0044] Among them, through the cooperation of the bucket mechanism 5 and the visual mechanism, the relatively loose coking on the inner wall of the incinerator is continuously shoveled and removed through the action of the bucket 54.

[0045] Among them, the hammer drill is used to clean the dense coking areas that are difficult to shovel with the bucket 54, and the bucket 54 is used to clean the relatively loose coking areas that are easy to shovel with the bucket 54. The remote controller controls the input through visual recognition in the furnace and outputs control signals to control the rotation of the slewing device 3 and the extension or contraction of the double arms, as well as the bucket 54 or hammering actions.

[0046] In the description of the present utility model, it should also be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "arranged", "installed", "connected" and "coupled" shall be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection or an integral connection; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model may be understood according to specific circumstances.
