Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of inspection doors, and in particular relates to an ash hopper inspection door for a dust collector. Background Art
[0002] Currently, pulverized coal, the primary fuel for clinker production in cement plants, is processed through a pulverized coal preparation system. Because pulverized coal is flammable and explosive, all equipment in this system presents a risk of explosion, including dust collection equipment. In new dry-process cement production lines, exhaust gas from the coal mill cannot be entirely discharged into the kiln; instead, dust collection and ventilation are necessary. Currently, bag filters for coal mills are widely used. In this case, the exhaust gas and dust from the coal mill are inevitably flammable and explosive.
[0003] Coal mill exhaust gas temperatures typically range from 60°C to 80°C, with a dew point of 40°C to 50°C. Dust-laden gas enters the bag filter directly, where dust concentrations typically reach 500-800g / Nm³, representing a high dust concentration. The operating negative pressure of some dust collectors can reach as high as 8,000-14,000 Pa. Freshly pulverized coal has a density of approximately 0.5t / m³, making it relatively light. The dust is fine, typically less than 0.1mm (40% to 80% of the weight of dust is less than 10μm), making it prone to spontaneous combustion and explosion. The large surface area of the dust makes it highly explosive.
[0004] For combustion and explosion to occur, three conditions must be present simultaneously: combustible materials, sufficient oxygen, and an ignition source. Dust collector design must fully consider flame and explosion prevention. Because bag filters operate under negative pressure, they place higher demands on the sealing performance of the housing and various doors to prevent air leakage from entering the dust collector, which could increase oxygen levels and lead to spontaneous combustion and explosion. Dust collector insulation requires not only an insulation layer for the housing, but also for manholes, inspection doors, and explosion-proof doors. This prevents high-temperature, humid gases from meeting the cold exterior of the housing, causing condensation on the hot and cold contact surfaces of the wall panels, resulting in coal dust sticking together and accumulating on the wall panels. Furthermore, the dust collector must be free of dust accumulation spots, dead corners, or surfaces where dust can accumulate.
[0005] In current technology, in order to ensure the insulation effect near the ash hopper inspection door and prevent condensation on the inner wall, and to ensure full coverage of the insulation layer, sufficient height space must be reserved. A height space of 150mm is reserved for the ash hopper inspection door frame to ensure that the door frame is fully covered by the insulation layer.
[0006] The doorframe of the ash hopper access door is relatively high. The taller the doorframe, the greater the likelihood and volume of dust accumulation within the straight section of the doorframe, posing a greater risk to the equipment. If the doorframe height is reduced, the insulation thickness will not be sufficient, and the wall panels will be susceptible to condensation and dust accumulation. While increasing the thickness of the insulation layer inside the access door can reduce dust accumulation, this increase is limited, and the ability to open the access door must also be considered. This still leaves a significant amount of dust accumulation space, creating the potential for dust accumulation. To allow for swinging clearance for the access door, a portion of the current doorframe extends beyond the hopper panel insulation, preventing full insulation coverage. Utility Model Content

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the ash hopper includes an ash hopper shell 1 , an insulation layer 11 , and a flange 12 . The insulation layer 11 is provided on the outer wall of the ash hopper shell 1 , and the flange is provided at the lower part of the ash hopper shell 1 .
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the door frame assembly includes a door frame 3 , and the door frame 3 is arranged on an inspection hole opened in the ash hopper shell 1 .
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the inspection door assembly includes insulating rock wool 41, an outer door cover 42, an inner door cover 43, and a sealing ring 44. The two ends of the inner door cover 43 are connected to the two ends of the outer door cover 42, and the insulating rock wool 41 is arranged between the outer door cover 42 and the inner door cover 43. A groove is provided at the edge of the outer door cover 42, and the sealing ring 44 is arranged in the groove.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking assembly includes a hinge 51 and a ring nut 52 . One end of the hinge 51 is connected to the door frame 3 , and the other end of the hinge 51 is connected to the outer door cover 42 . The inspection door assembly is locked by the ring nut 52 .
[0030] In the above solution, the inspection door assembly is opened by rotating the hinge 51, and is locked by four sets of evenly arranged ring nuts 52 when the inspection door assembly is closed.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the limiting assembly includes a limiting round steel 6 , and the limiting round steel 6 includes two, which are respectively welded on the inner wall of the door frame 3 and located at two symmetrical positions in the diameter direction of the door frame 3 .
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the dust cover assembly includes a dust cover plate 71, a reinforcement plate 72, and an elastic pressure plate 73, and the dust cover plate 71, the reinforcement plate 72, and the elastic pressure plate 73 are sequentially connected through a rotating assembly.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when using the present invention, first adhere a sealing gasket 2 around the hopper's access hole, weld a retaining round steel bar 6 inside the door frame 3, then spot-weld the dust cover 71 and reinforcement plate 72 together using bolts 81. Finally, install the elastic pressure plate 73. When assembling the nut 82, ensure a certain gap between the nut 82 and the elastic pressure plate 73. The nut 82 only serves as a limiter, allowing the elastic pressure plate 73 to rotate freely. After adjusting the position of the nut 82, weld it to the bolt 81 to prevent loosening. When installing the dust cover 71, first rotate the elastic pressure plate 73 to the left or right to offset the position of the limit round steel 6. Then, the dust cover 71 can be installed at the position of the ash hopper inspection hole. After pressing the sealing gasket 2, rotate the elastic pressure plate 73 to the vicinity of the position of the limit round steel 6. Press down the two ends of the elastic pressure plate 73 with appropriate force to make it lower than the position of the limit round steel 6. Then rotate it a little bit. Using the change of the elastic deformation of the elastic pressure plate 73, the ends of the elastic pressure plate 73 are clamped on the limit round steel 6. The elastic force generated by the deformation of the elastic pressure plate 73 is used to tightly compress and fix the dust cover 71 on the ash hopper inspection hole. The pressing force of the elastic pressure plate 73 can also be adjusted according to its own shape change. When opening, first press down the two ends of the elastic pressure plate 73, then manually rotate the elastic pressure plate 73 to leave the limit position of the limit round steel 6. The dust cover 71 can be opened. The elastic pressure plate 73 also acts as a handle, which is convenient for manual disassembly and assembly of the dust cover 71.
[0037] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
