Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of the structure of the branch flue of a glass furnace, in particular to the structure of the branch flue of a forehearth of a glass furnace. Background Art
[0002] The 2mm series of photovoltaic glass has higher quality requirements for the original sheet. The quality of the original sheet is controlled by processes such as the furnace, the tin bath, and annealing. Especially in the melting stage of the furnace, the stability of the temperature in the furnace determines the clarification degree and the distribution of the material area after the raw materials are melted. Especially for the relatively thin 2mm photovoltaic glass, good combustion conditions in the furnace can significantly reduce the generation of glass nodules. The branch flue is an important structure for the exhaust of flue gas in the combustion system of a glass furnace. The combustion exhaust gas generated by each forehearth flows into the branch flue through its respective bottom flue for aggregation, and then the aggregated flue gas is subjected to waste heat utilization or purification treatment and evacuation.
[0003] At present, the phenomenon of flue gas backflow into the bottom flue often occurs when the branch flue is in use, seriously affecting the exhaust of flue gas in the bottom flue. When the flue gas cannot be discharged smoothly, it is bound to affect the combustion conditions in the furnace, resulting in incomplete combustion and ultimately reducing the production quality of the glass. After long-term observation, it is found that when multiple bottom flues exhaust gas into the branch flue, the total amount of flue gas in the branch flue gradually increases, that is, the pressure increases, causing the flue gas in the branch flue to form a backflow in the bottom flue along the flowing path, or hindering the outflow of the flue gas in the bottom flue, resulting in an imbalance in the pressure of the combustion system of the glass furnace and affecting glass production. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a structure of the branch flue of a forehearth of a glass furnace to solve the problem that the flue gas in the branch flue backflows into the bottom flue or hinders the outflow of the flue gas in the bottom flue, affecting glass production.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] A structure of the branch flue of a forehearth of a glass furnace, the smoke outlet at the lower part of the regenerator grate of the glass furnace is communicated with the smoke inlet of the branch flue structure. The branch flue structure includes a bottom flue, a branch flue, and a air assisting device. The smoke inlets of a plurality of the bottom flues are communicated with the smoke outlet at the lower part of the regenerator grate and correspond to the positions of each forehearth one by one. The branch flue has a plurality of constriction parts, and the smoke inlets of the plurality of the bottom flues are communicated with the constriction parts one by one. The air assisting device is communicated with the air inlet end of the branch flue.
[0007] A further technical solution is that a plurality of one-way valves are arranged on the branch flue, and the one-way valves are located between two adjacent constriction parts.
[0008] A further technical solution is as follows: The one-way valve includes a guide rod, a conical piston, and a limiting member. The guide rod is coaxially installed in the branch flue. The conical piston is slidably installed on the guide rod. The conical surface of the conical piston is arranged opposite to the direction of flue gas flow. The limiting member is installed on the larger side surface of the conical piston, and an air passage is formed between the limiting member and the inner wall of the branch flue.
[0009] A further technical solution is as follows: A spring is installed on the guide rod to press against the larger side surface of the conical piston.
[0010] A further technical solution is as follows: The limiting member is a rod.
[0011] A further technical solution is as follows: The limiting member is a filter ring.
[0012] A further technical solution is as follows: The air assisting device is a blower.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, at least one of the following beneficial effects can be achieved by the present utility model:
[0014] The present utility model provides a structure of a side flue of a port of a glass furnace. When the air assisting device supplies air to the branch flue to accelerate the flow of flue gas, at the constriction, the air flow forms a Venturi effect, and the flue gas in the bottom flue is drawn into the branch flue, promoting the discharge of the flue gas. This branch flue structure can prevent the backflow of flue gas into the bottom flue, ensure the smooth outflow of the flue gas in the bottom flue into the branch flue, and ensure the pressure stability of the combustion system of the glass furnace, thus guaranteeing the production quality of the glass.

[0025] Example 1:
[0026] As shown in this embodiment Figure 1 As shown, a structure of a branch flue of a glass furnace, the smoke outlet at the lower part 1 of the checkerwork of the regenerator of the glass furnace is communicated with the smoke inlet of the branch flue structure 2. The branch flue structure 2 includes a bottom flue 3, a branch flue 4 and an air assisting device 5. The smoke inlets of a plurality of bottom flues 3 are communicated with the smoke outlet at the lower part 1 of the checkerwork and correspond to the positions of each port one by one. A plurality of necking parts are provided on the branch flue 4, and the smoke inlets of the plurality of bottom flues 3 are communicated with the necking parts one by one. The air assisting device 5 is communicated with the air inlet end of the branch flue 4.
[0027] During smoke exhaust, first turn on the air assisting device 5 to supply air to form an air flow. When the air flow passes through the necking part of the branch flue 4, a Venturi effect is formed. When the flue gas at the lower part 1 of the checkerwork enters the bottom flue 3, the flue gas in the bottom flue 3 can be drawn into the branch flue 4 by means of the Venturi effect, promoting the discharge of the flue gas. This branch flue structure can overcome the backflow of the flue gas into the bottom flue, ensure the smooth outflow of the flue gas in the bottom flue into the branch flue, and ensure the pressure stability of the combustion system of the glass furnace, thus guaranteeing the quality of the glass products.
[0028] Preferably, a plurality of check valves 6 are provided on the branch flue 4, and the check valves 6 are located between two adjacent necking parts.
[0029] The check valve 6 can prevent the backflow of the flue gas into the bottom flue 3 and the air assisting device 5 when the Venturi effect fails, ensuring the smooth discharge of the flue gas and the safety of the equipment.
[0030] Embodiment Two:
[0031] On the basis of the above embodiment, as shown in this embodiment Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the check valve 6 includes a guide rod 7, a conical piston 8 and a limiting member 9. The guide rod 7 is coaxially installed in the branch flue 4. The conical piston 8 is slidably installed on the guide rod 7. The conical surface of the conical piston 8 is arranged opposite to the direction of the flue gas flow. The limiting member 9 is installed on the larger side surface of the conical piston 8, and an air passing channel is formed between the limiting member 9 and the inner wall of the branch flue 4.
[0032] After the flue gas enters the branch flue 4, it pushes the conical piston 8 to move on the guide rod 7. The limiting member 9 abuts against the inner wall of the branch flue 4 to form an air passing channel, and the flue gas is discharged through the air passing channel. When the flue gas backflows, the conical piston 8 moves in the reverse direction, and the conical surface of the conical piston 8 abuts against the inner wall of the branch flue 4 to form a seal, preventing the backflow of the flue gas.
[0033] Preferably, a spring 10 that abuts against the larger side surface of the conical piston 8 is installed on the guide rod 7.
[0034] The spring 10 is used to improve the reset effect of the conical piston 8.
[0035] AsFigure 2 The limiting member 9 is a rod.
[0036] The rod is tightly pressed against the inner wall of the auxiliary flue 4 to form an air passage.
[0037] Such as Figure 3 The limiting member 9 is a filter ring.
[0038] The filter ring can perform a filtering function.
[0039] Preferably, the air assisting device 5 is a blower.
