[0030] See also Figure 1 , shows a schematic diagram of a boiler bed material feeding system described in the present application, which is used for a boiler 1, and a manhole 11 is provided on the boiler 1; the boiler bed material feeding system includes a bucket elevator 2 and an air distribution component 3; the air distribution component 3 is arranged inside the boiler 1 and is lower than the manhole 11; the bucket elevator 2 is connected to the interior of the boiler 1 through the manhole 11; the bucket elevator 2 delivers slag into the furnace of the boiler 1 through the manhole 11; the air distribution component 3 blows air on the slag delivered into the boiler 1 to flatten the slag inside the boiler 1 and finally form a bed layer.

[0031] In this embodiment, slag is fed into the furnace of boiler 1 via bucket elevator 2. The slag that enters boiler 1 naturally accumulates within boiler 1. Air distribution assembly 3 blows air onto the accumulated slag, evenly leveling it and forming a bed. During the bed addition process, workers do not need to enter boiler 1 to level the slag, thus avoiding operational inconvenience and potential safety hazards.

[0032] Furthermore, the boiler 1 described in this embodiment may be provided with an induced draft assembly 9, which creates a negative pressure environment within the furnace of the boiler 1, thereby preventing the slag from being blown out of the boiler 1 when the air distribution assembly 3 blows air on the slag. Specifically, the induced draft assembly 9 may be connected to a chimney via an induced draft fan to discharge the slag and ash sucked in during the induced draft process.

[0033] For example, the slag material can be slag with a carbon content of less than 3% and a particle size of 0mm to 5mm. Specifically, the hot bed material from the adjacent furnace can be used as the slag material. During use, the induced draft assembly maintains a negative pressure of 0kPa to -50kPa in the furnace, and the air distribution assembly is used to evenly distribute the slag material within the boiler 1, ultimately forming a bed layer thickness ≥800mm.

[0034] It should be noted that those skilled in the art can select the type of slag and the thickness of the final bed layer according to actual production and use requirements. This embodiment only provides an example.

[0037] In this embodiment, the air distribution assembly 3 includes an air distribution plate 31 and multiple air hoods 32. During use, the air distribution plate 31 is set at the bottom of the boiler 1. After the slag enters the boiler 1 through the manhole 11, it accumulates on the air distribution plate 31. The slag is blown by the fan 4 and the air hood 32, so that the slag is flattened to form a bed layer.

[0038] Optionally, the hood 32 described in the present invention is any one of a mushroom-type hood and a bell-type hood, or can be a combination of a mushroom-type hood and a bell-type hood.

[0039] In this embodiment, the hood 32 can be a mushroom-shaped hood or a bell-shaped hood. The mushroom-shaped hood has better air distribution uniformity, allowing air to form a relatively uniform flow field when passing through the hood, thereby achieving more effective flattening of the slag. The bell-shaped hood is generally designed with a bell-shaped structure, thereby achieving even airflow distribution and providing good stability during the blowing and flattening process of the slag.

[0040] Furthermore, a bed pressure detection device can be provided to detect the bed pressure of the bed layer and realize the detection of the bed leveling result; based on the detection of the bed pressure, the leveling effect of the bed layer is obtained, and based on the leveling effect of the bed layer, the air volume or wind direction of the wind cap 32 is adjusted to obtain the target bed layer.

[0041] Optionally, the multiple hoods 32 described in the present invention are evenly distributed on the air distribution plate 31 .

[0042] In this embodiment, a plurality of wind caps 32 are evenly distributed on the air distribution plate 31, thereby ensuring that the slag is subjected to a balanced wind force during the blowing process.

[0043] Furthermore, multiple hoods 32 can be arranged in an array or in a multi-layer ring arrangement, and those skilled in the art can adjust the type and size of the hoods 32 in the array according to usage requirements, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

During use, the slag is stored and transported through the slag bin 5, and the slag enters the bucket elevator 2 through the first discharge channel 6. After the bucket elevator 2 lifts the slag, it is transported into the manhole 11 through the second discharge channel 7.

[0048] Furthermore, the first and second material discharge channels 6 and 7 can be specifically selected as pipes with a diameter of not less than 200 mm to ensure smooth passage of the slag. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can specifically select the diameter and material of the first and second material discharge channels 6 and 7 according to actual production and use requirements, and this embodiment does not impose any further restrictions.

[0049] Furthermore, the discharge port may be provided on the side wall or the bottom of the slag bin 5 .

[0052] Furthermore, a roof may be provided on the material pit 8 to prevent rain, wind and sand from affecting the slag in the material pit 8 .

[0053] Optionally, a vibrating screen is provided in the material pit 8 described in the present invention, and the vibrating screen is connected to the bucket elevator 2 to allow the slag material to enter the bucket elevator 2.

Specifically, the angles between the first and second feeding channels 6 and 7 and the horizontal plane can be 45°, 50°, or 60°. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can select the angles between the first and second feeding channels 6 and 7 and the horizontal plane according to actual production and use requirements. This embodiment only provides a preferred implementation scheme.

[0057] Optionally, the first discharge channel 6 described in the present invention is provided with a first discharge valve 61 , and the second discharge channel 7 is provided with a second discharge valve 71 .
