AI Technical Summary
The outer guard plate of the exhaust metal expansion joint of the gas engine bumps and grinds with the corrugated pipe under frequent hot and cold expansion conditions, causing damage and wear through the corrugated pipe, which in turn causes flue gas leakage.
A multi-section outer sheath structure is adopted. The outer sheath is welded to the non-expanding plate of the expansion joint through the support and is connected by bolts. The outer sheath is a variable diameter sleeve to adapt to the hot and cold expansion of the expansion joint. A pad and a circular inner groove are provided between the support and the outer sheath to enhance the support effect.
The local stiffness of the outer sheath is improved, prevents the outer sheath from collapse, adapts to the frequent hot and cold expansion of metal expansion joints, avoids damage to the corrugated pipe, and ensures the sealing of the smoke.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an outer protective structure of a combustion engine exhaust metal expansion joint. Background Art
[0002] The gas turbine exhaust system is the connecting section between the gas turbine and the waste heat boiler; the exhaust system is mainly composed of a metal expansion joint, a transition section, a diffusion section, a non-metallic expansion joint, and a supporting structure. The main function of the exhaust system is to expand and reduce the speed of the high-temperature, high-velocity gas discharged from the gas turbine into the waste heat boiler. In order to reduce the energy loss of the exhaust system, an insulation layer is designed in the exhaust system. In order to absorb the thermal expansion of the gas turbine, the end of the gas turbine is connected to the metal expansion joint, and the outlet of the metal expansion joint is trumpet-shaped and connected to the exhaust diffusion section. In order to avoid heat loss from the metal expansion joint, an outer protective plate is required outside the bellows of the gas turbine exhaust metal expansion joint, and thermal insulation material is applied to the outer protective plate to insulate. The current outer protective plate is in the form of a single annular plate, one end of which is fixed to the non-expansion plate of the expansion joint through a support, and the other end is not fixed but rests on the support. Under the weight of the insulation layer, the inner protective plate collapses and contacts the bellows. Due to the rapid start-stop characteristics of the gas turbine, the metal expansion joint is frequently subjected to long-term hot and cold expansion and contraction conditions. The outer guard plate rubs against the bellows of the metal expansion joint, causing the bellows to be damaged and worn through, ultimately leading to flue gas leakage. Utility Model Content
