[0019] The utility model relates to a natural gas combustion device for calcining a rotary kiln, comprising a base 101, a rotary kiln body 102, a combustion tube 103, a mixing chamber 104, a stirring shaft 105, a stirring blade 106, a motor 107, an air passage 108, a natural gas passage 109, a filter 110, a first flow meter 111, a first regulating valve 112, a second flow meter 113, a second regulating valve 114, a pressure sensor 115, a controller 116, and a support frame 117. The utility model solves the problem that natural gas and air need to be fully mixed for full combustion, but existing rotary kiln combustion devices cannot fully mix natural gas and air, which easily leads to incomplete combustion and energy waste. It is understood that the above solution can also be used to improve combustion efficiency.

[0020] In this embodiment, the rotary kiln cylinder 102 and the combustion tube 103 are both existing technologies, and the specific structure refers to the existing technology CN207395456U. An energy-saving rotary kiln, through the mixing component, can fully mix natural gas and air, solving the problem that natural gas and air need to be fully mixed for full combustion, but the combustion device of the existing rotary kiln cannot fully mix natural gas and air, which easily leads to incomplete combustion and energy waste.

[0021] The mixing chamber 104 is connected to the combustion tube 103 and is located on the side of the combustion tube 103 away from the rotary kiln cylinder 102. The stirring shaft 105 extends into the mixing chamber 104 and is rotatably connected to the mixing chamber 104. The stirring blade 106 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 105 and is located in the mixing chamber 104. The motor 107 is fixedly connected to the mixing chamber 104, and the output shaft of the motor 107 is fixedly connected to the stirring shaft 105. The air duct 108 is fixedly connected to the mixing chamber 104 and is connected to the mixing chamber 104. The natural gas duct 108 is fixedly connected to the mixing chamber 104 and is connected to the mixing chamber 104. 09 is fixedly connected to the mixing chamber 104 and communicates with the mixing chamber 104. The first monitoring component is installed on the air duct 108, and the second monitoring component is installed on the natural gas duct 109. The mixing chamber 104 is a cylinder with an internal cavity, made of stainless steel, with good corrosion resistance and strength. The stirring shaft 105 extends into the mixing chamber 104 along the length direction of the mixing chamber 104 and is connected to the mixing chamber 104 through a sealed bearing. The shape and number of the stirring blades 106 are designed according to the size and mixing requirements of the mixing chamber 104, and a three-leaf spiral stirring blade is used. The blade 106 can generate a strong stirring force to promote the rapid mixing of natural gas and air. The motor 107 is fixed to the mixing chamber 104 by bolts and is used to drive the stirring shaft 105 to rotate. The stirring shaft 105 and the stirring blade 106 are driven by the motor 107 to rotate, thereby stirring the gas in the mixing chamber 104. The air duct 108 and the natural gas duct 109 are respectively arranged on both sides of the mixing chamber 104, both of which are metal pipes. One end of the air duct 108 is connected to the mixing chamber 104, and the other end is connected to the air source, so as to pass air into the mixing chamber 104. In the mixing chamber 104, one end of the natural gas passage 109 is connected to the mixing chamber 104, and the other end is connected to the natural gas source, so as to pass the natural gas into the mixing chamber 104. The first monitoring component and the second monitoring component are respectively used to monitor and regulate the input amounts of air and natural gas. By setting up the mixing chamber 104, the air and natural gas can be fully mixed, thereby solving the problem that the natural gas and air need to be fully mixed for the natural gas to be fully burned, but the combustion device of the existing rotary kiln cannot fully mix the natural gas and air, which easily leads to incomplete combustion and energy waste.

[0022] Secondly, the filter 110 is fixedly connected to the air duct 108 and is located at one end of the air duct 108 away from the mixing chamber 104; the first flow meter 111 extends into the air duct 108 and is fixedly connected to the air duct 108; the first regulating valve 112 is fixedly installed on the air duct 108, and the filter 110 is used to filter impurities in the air to ensure the cleanliness of the mixed gas. The first flow meter 111 is plug-in type and is inserted into the air duct 108 for installation, and can monitor the air flow in real time. The first regulating valve 112 is used to control the air flow. Through the first flow meter 111 and the first regulating valve 112, the air flow can be monitored and regulated.

[0023] At the same time, the second flow meter 113 extends into the natural gas channel 109 and is fixedly connected to the natural gas channel 109; the second regulating valve 114 is fixedly installed on the natural gas channel 109; the pressure sensor 115 extends into the natural gas channel 109 and is fixedly connected to the natural gas channel 109.

The pressure sensor 115 is of an intrusive type and is installed in the natural gas channel 109 to monitor the pressure of natural gas and ensure the safety and stability of the mixing process. Through the second flow meter 113 and the second regulating valve 114, the natural gas flow can be monitored and regulated.

[0024] In addition, the controller 116 is fixedly mounted on the base 101 and is located on the side of the base 101 close to the mixing chamber 104. The controller 116 adopts a programmable logic controller for controlling various parts of the mixing device. The controller 116 can receive signals from the first flow meter 111, the second flow meter 113 and the pressure sensor 115, and control the actions of the first regulating valve 112 and the second regulating valve 114 actuators according to a preset program, thereby realizing automatic control of the mixing process.

[0025] Finally, the support frame 117 is fixedly connected to the base 101 and the mixing chamber 104 . The support frame 117 is used to provide support for the mixing chamber 104 . The mixing chamber 104 is stably supported by the support frame 117 .

[0026] In this embodiment, air and natural gas enter the mixing chamber 104 through the air passage 108 and the natural gas passage 109 respectively. After the air is filtered by the filter 110, the flow rate is controlled by the first flow meter 111 and the first regulating valve 112, and the air enters the mixing chamber 104. The flow rate and pressure of natural gas are controlled by the second flow meter 113, the second regulating valve 114 and the pressure sensor 115, and the natural gas enters the mixing chamber 104. The motor 107 is actuated to drive the stirring shaft 105 and the stirring blade 106 to rotate, stirring the mixed gas in the mixing chamber 104 to improve the uniformity of the mixing. The mixed gas enters the rotary kiln cylinder 102 through the combustion tube 103 for combustion. The present application provides the mixing chamber 104 so that the air and natural gas can be fully mixed, thereby solving the problem that the natural gas and air need to be fully mixed for full combustion, but the combustion device of the existing rotary kiln cannot fully mix the natural gas and air, which easily leads to incomplete combustion and energy waste.
