Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of graphitization furnaces, and in particular to an afterburning chamber. Background Art
[0002] Graphitized powder is a crucial industrial material, primarily used as a recarburizer in steel and iron metallurgy, as cathode carbon blocks and prebaked anodes for nonferrous metal electrolytic cells, and as diamond products. The most widely used graphitization furnace is a vertical graphite resistance furnace, which heats the raw material using upper and lower graphite blocks. The principle is that after the raw material passes through the electric field between the positive and negative electrodes, the resistance of the material generates heat when electricity is applied, subjecting the material to high-temperature treatment.
[0003] The afterburner is typically used to treat combustible gases generated during the graphitization process. During graphitization furnace operation, combustible gases are introduced into the afterburner through an inlet pipe. Inside the afterburner, these gases mix with air and ignite, leading to a combustion reaction. The heat generated by combustion is absorbed by the furnace, maintaining the high temperature of the graphitization furnace. Meanwhile, the exhaust gases are discharged through an exhaust pipe.
[0004] In actual production, in order to improve production efficiency, multiple graphitization furnaces usually work together. Each graphitization furnace is equipped with a reburning chamber. The exhaust pipes of these reburning chambers are connected to a main exhaust pipe. The exhaust gas generated by the combustion of combustible gas in each reburning chamber is collected in the main exhaust pipe and discharged together.
[0005] However, when one of the graphitization furnaces is shut down so that combustible gas is no longer produced in the furnace, the exhaust gas in the main exhaust pipe will flow into the closed graphitization furnace. The main components of these exhaust gases are carbon dioxide and water produced by the combustion of combustible gas. This water enters the graphitization furnace and generates water vapor in the furnace body, causing oxidation of the electrodes in the furnace body and affecting the service life of the electrodes. Utility Model Content
[0006] The embodiment of the present application provides a reburning chamber, comprising a reburning chamber body and a pipe plug, wherein the reburning chamber body has an air inlet pipe and an air outlet pipe;

[0010] The afterburning chamber provided in the embodiments of the present application can be sealed or opened using a pipe plug at the connection between the first branch pipe and the second branch pipe. By sealing this connection, the second branch pipe is blocked from communicating with the first branch pipe, preventing exhaust gas from entering the graphitization furnace through the second branch pipe. This, in turn, prevents carbon dioxide and water in the exhaust gas from entering the graphitization furnace and causing oxidation of the electrodes within the furnace body, effectively extending the service life of the electrodes.

[0042] See also Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a reburning chamber, including a reburning chamber body 10 and a pipe plug 40, the reburning chamber body 10 has an air inlet pipe 20 and an air outlet pipe 30, wherein:
[0043] The air intake duct 20 is used to connect the afterburning chamber body 10 and the combustible gas exhaust channel of the graphitization furnace. The air intake duct 20 includes a first branch pipe 21 and a second branch pipe 22. The lower end of the first branch pipe 21 is connected to the afterburning chamber body 10. One end of the second branch pipe 22 is connected to the side wall of the first branch pipe 21. The other end of the second branch pipe 22 serves as the combustible gas inlet connected to the graphitization furnace.
[0044] The gas outlet pipe 30 is connected to the main exhaust pipe, and is used to discharge the tail gas rich in carbon dioxide and water generated by the combustion of the combustible gas into the main exhaust pipe for subsequent centralized treatment of the tail gas.
[0045] The pipe plug 40 is inserted into the first branch pipe 21 through the opening at the upper end thereof, thereby blocking the opening at the upper end of the first branch pipe 21, preventing the combustible gas and the gas within the reburning chamber body 10 from being discharged through the opening at the upper end of the first branch pipe 21. The pipe plug 40 is inserted downwardly and blocks the connection between the first branch pipe 21 and the second branch pipe 22, thereby blocking the communication between the second branch pipe 22 and the first branch pipe 21.
[0046] How it works:
[0047] During normal operation of the graphitization furnace, the pipe plug 40 is inserted into the first branch pipe 21 through the opening at the upper end thereof, thereby sealing the opening. However, the connection between the first branch pipe 21 and the second branch pipe 22 is not blocked, and the second branch pipe 22 and the first branch pipe 21 remain in communication. In this manner, the combustible gas generated during operation of the graphitization furnace passes through the second branch pipe 22 and the first branch pipe 21 and enters the reburning chamber body 10, where it undergoes a combustion reaction. Simultaneously, the combustible gas and the gas within the reburning chamber body 10 are not discharged through the opening at the upper end of the first branch pipe 21.
[0048] When the graphitization furnace needs to be shut down, the pipe plug 40 is lowered along the first branch pipe 21 to block the connection between the first branch pipe 21 and the second branch pipe 22, thereby blocking the connection between the second branch pipe 22 and the first branch pipe 21. The second branch pipe 22 is disconnected from the first branch pipe 21. At this time, the exhaust gas in the main exhaust pipe cannot enter the second branch pipe 22 through the first branch pipe 21, thereby preventing the carbon dioxide and water in the exhaust gas from entering the graphitization furnace through the second branch pipe 22.
[0049] The afterburning chamber provided in the embodiment of the present application can block or open the connection between the first branch pipe 21 and the second branch pipe 22 by using a pipe plug 40. By blocking this connection, the second branch pipe 22 is blocked from communicating with the first branch pipe 21, preventing the exhaust gas from entering the graphitization furnace through the second branch pipe 22. This further prevents carbon dioxide and water in the exhaust gas from entering the graphitization furnace and causing oxidation of the electrodes inside the furnace body, effectively extending the service life of the electrodes.
[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, a through-hole 41 is provided on the side wall of the pipe plug 40 , into which a limiting rod 50 can be inserted. The length of the limiting rod 50 is greater than the radial dimension of the opening at the upper end of the first branch pipe 21 .
[0051] During normal operation of the graphitization furnace, the tube plug 40 must remain within the first branch tube 21 but not block the connection between the first branch tube 21 and the second branch tube 22, ensuring that the second branch tube 22 is in communication with the first branch tube 21. Therefore, a stopper rod 50 is inserted through the stopper hole 41, with both ends of the stopper rod 50 extending from opposite sides of the tube plug 40. This prevents the tube plug 40 from falling, maintaining communication between the second branch tube 22 and the first branch tube 21.
[0052] Specifically, a stopper 51 is provided at one end of the stopper rod 50. The outer diameter of the stopper head 51 is larger than the diameter of the stopper hole 41. A through-hole 52 is provided at the other end of the stopper rod 50. A stopper pin 60 is inserted into the through-hole 52. The stopper head 51 and the stopper pin 60 inserted into the through-hole 52 limit the axial displacement of the stopper rod 50, preventing the stopper rod 50 from slipping out of the stopper hole 41.
[0053] Specifically, the first branch pipe 21 has a tapered section 211, and the inner diameter of the first branch pipe 21 at the tapered section 211 gradually decreases toward the lower end of the first branch pipe 21. The outer wall surface of the pipe plug 40 near the lower end has a tapered surface 42, which can fit the inner wall of the first branch pipe 21 at the tapered section 211.
[0054] In this way, when it is necessary to lower the pipe plug 40 along the first branch pipe 21 to block the connection between the first branch pipe 21 and the second branch pipe 22, thereby blocking the communication between the second branch pipe 22 and the first branch pipe 21, the stopper rod 50 is removed, and the pipe plug 40 is allowed to fall along the first branch pipe 21 until the conical surface 42 of the pipe plug 40 contacts the inner wall of the first branch pipe 21 at the conical section 211. The pipe plug 40 then stops falling, and the pipe plug 40 is maintained in the position of blocking the connection between the first branch pipe 21 and the second branch pipe 22.
[0055] Specifically, a handle 43 is provided at the top of the pipe plug 40, so that it is more convenient to use the handle 43 to lift or put down the pipe plug 40.
