Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cement production equipment, in particular to a grate bed air supply device. Background Art

[0002] In cement clinker production, calcination and cooling are critical steps that directly impact the properties of the final product. During the calcination process, the clinker is subjected to centrifugal force within the kiln, causing particle segregation. Specifically, large particles tend to concentrate in the center of the kiln shell, while fine particles gradually concentrate toward the sides. This segregation is particularly pronounced at high kiln speeds or when the kiln contains a high concentration of fine clinker particles. During the cooling phase, the densely packed fine clinker particles create significant resistance to the cooling air, causing it to pass less or not at all through the fine clinker layer, while more of it passes through the lower-resistance, larger particles layer. This results in ineffective cooling of the fine particles layer, resulting in a high surface temperature and a hot red color, while the larger particles layer cools, turning black. As the grate pushes, the temperature difference between the coarse and fine particles gradually increases, preventing the fine particles from being adequately cooled. Ultimately, a red-hot clinker band forms from the cooler's inlet to the outlet, the so-called "red river" phenomenon.

[0003] Grate cooler is a key equipment for achieving rapid cooling of clinker. Existing grate coolers usually adopt the form of an air chamber, in which the cold air is sent into the air chamber by a fan, and then the cold air is transported to the clinker layer through the grate plate. Although this method can achieve rapid cooling of clinker, it has the following problems: First, due to the uneven distribution of coarse and fine particles of clinker on the grate bed, the distribution of air volume on the grate bed is unreasonable. The resistance on the coarse material side is smaller, so that more cooling air passes through the coarse material side, while the fine material side has insufficient ventilation due to large resistance, resulting in uneven cooling effect; secondly, due to the uneven distribution of air volume, a larger air volume is required to ensure the cooling of the clinker, which increases the pressure of the fan, resulting in high energy consumption of the system and increased production costs; and the uneven distribution of air volume will also cause the local wind speed to be too fast, blowing up the clinker powder, increasing the load of the dust collection system.

[0014] Adopt dry oil film seal to ensure the contact surface fit during operation, reduce friction between connecting parts, prevent gas leakage, and the dry oil is not easy to volatilize, which can maintain lubrication and sealing effects for a long time.

[0015] In a feasible implementation, a plurality of oil inlets are further provided on the connecting plate. The oil inlets are coaxially arranged with the oil tank, and the lower sides of the oil inlets are threadedly connected with oil nozzles.
