Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electronic glass furnace auxiliary equipment, in particular to a furnace smoke pipe expansion adjustment device. Background Art

[0002] Electronic glass kilns generally require natural gas heating, which produces waste gas after combustion. At the same time, the melting process of glass batch materials at high temperatures will also produce a certain amount of waste gas. The waste gas in the kiln is transported through the flue to the flue gas treatment system for harmless treatment, and ultimately meets the national environmental protection index requirements.

[0003] Currently, metal smoke pipes are commonly used to connect to kilns to assist in transporting kiln exhaust gas to the flue gas treatment system. The advantages of using high-temperature resistant steel smoke pipes are light weight, small size, and convenient space layout. However, since the temperature of kiln flue gas after cooling is about 600°C, the horizontal section of the smoke pipe expands by more than 50 mm. If it extends to one end, the vertical flue will tilt. If it extends to the other end, it will cause misalignment with the kiln outlet pipe, and in severe cases, it will cause leakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a kiln smoke pipe expansion adjustment device to overcome the problems existing in the prior art. The utility model can adjust the expansion of the smoke pipe in the horizontal direction and the docking with the kiln outlet pipe. By utilizing a middle limit device to divide the horizontal section of the smoke pipe into two left and right parts, the fixed end of the horizontal left section of the smoke pipe uses an expansion joint to absorb the expansion, and the free end of the horizontal right section of the smoke pipe uses a staggered structure to compensate for the expansion, thereby realizing hot docking of the smoke pipe and the kiln outlet pipe.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solutions adopted by the present invention are as follows:

[0006] A kiln smoke pipe expansion adjustment device includes a horizontal section smoke pipe with an expansion joint installed on the horizontal section smoke pipe. The horizontal section smoke pipe includes a horizontal left section smoke pipe. The horizontal left section smoke pipe is fixedly connected to a horizontal right section smoke pipe through a middle limiting device. The horizontal left section smoke pipe is connected to a fixed vertical smoke pipe. The horizontal right section smoke pipe is connected to a butt-jointed vertical smoke pipe. The butt-jointed vertical smoke pipe is connected to a kiln outlet pipe.

[0007] Furthermore, the expansion joint is installed at the end of the horizontal left section of the smoke pipe;

[0008] Furthermore, the middle limiting device includes a fixed structural member, and a support frame is installed on the fixed structural member;

[0009] Furthermore, a limiting block is fixed on the support frame;

[0010] Furthermore, the limit block is fixed to the lower part of the horizontal section of the smoke pipe;

[0011] Furthermore, the limit block is fixed to the lower part of the horizontal section of the smoke pipe by welding;

[0012] Furthermore, the butted vertical smoke pipe is connected to the kiln outlet pipe via a peripheral sealing ring;

[0013] Furthermore, the butted vertical smoke pipe and the kiln outlet pipe are staggered structures;

[0014] Furthermore, the butted vertical smoke pipe is eccentrically butted against the kiln outlet pipe;

[0015] Furthermore, the center line of the butted vertical smoke pipe is biased towards the direction of the middle limiting device relative to the center line of the kiln outlet pipe.

[0016] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects:

[0017] The utility model provides a kiln smoke pipe expansion adjustment device. By setting a middle limit device, the horizontal section of the smoke pipe is divided into two parts, the left and the right, so that the entire system can accurately adjust the expansion of the smoke pipe in the horizontal direction during high-temperature operation, effectively solving the docking problem caused by thermal expansion and contraction of the smoke pipe in the traditional system, ensuring the hot docking between the smoke pipe and the kiln outlet pipe is accurate, and reducing problems such as air leakage and vibration caused by poor docking; the horizontal left section of the smoke pipe adopts an expansion joint, which can effectively absorb and alleviate the expansion caused by temperature changes and protect the stability of the system structure, while the horizontal right section of the smoke pipe uses a staggered structure design as a free end. The two devices work together to further compensate for the residual expansion, achieving efficient management and control of the smoke pipe expansion and extending the service life of the equipment. By precisely controlling the expansion of the smoke pipe, the device significantly improves the stability and safety of the entire kiln system, reduces the mechanical stress concentration caused by uneven expansion, avoids safety hazards such as pipe cracking and falling off, and provides a more reliable environment for production operations. The device has a reasonable structural design, and the components are tightly connected and easy to disassemble, making the maintenance and installation of the system easier and faster. When the expansion joint needs to be replaced or other repairs need to be performed, they can be completed quickly, reducing maintenance costs and time costs.

[0018] Furthermore, the expansion joint, as a key expansion compensation element, is placed at the end of the horizontal left section of the smoke pipe. It can directly and effectively absorb the expansion of this section of the smoke pipe due to thermal expansion and contraction in a high-temperature environment, ensuring the stability and safety of the smoke pipe when operating at high temperatures, and preventing pipe deformation or damage caused by excessive expansion; the precise installation position of the expansion joint enables the horizontal left section of the smoke pipe to expand in a predetermined direction and measurement, thereby improving the hot docking accuracy between the docking vertical smoke pipe and the kiln outlet pipe. This high-precision docking reduces adverse factors such as leakage and vibration, and ensures the normal operation of the kiln system.

[0019] Furthermore, the fixed structural member serves as the basis of the entire middle limiting device, providing a stable support platform for the subsequent support frame and limit block; the support frame is installed on the fixed structural member to support and fix the limit block, ensuring that the limit block can accurately act on the horizontal section of the smoke pipe. The support frame is designed with sufficient strength and rigidity to withstand the expansion force and other mechanical stresses of the smoke pipe at high temperature.

[0020] Furthermore, the limit block is fixed on the support frame and is located at the lower part of the horizontal section of the smoke pipe. The limit block controls the horizontal expansion of the smoke pipe through physical restrictions to prevent it from being deformed or displaced due to excessive expansion, which helps to maintain the stability and consistency of the smoke pipe and ensure its accurate docking with the docking vertical smoke pipe and the kiln outlet pipe.

[0021] Furthermore, at high temperatures, the smoke pipe will expand and contract due to heat and cold, generating large thermal stress. The outer sealing ring can absorb and disperse these thermal stresses to a certain extent through its elasticity and toughness, thereby enhancing the stability of the entire connection structure; it can also effectively reduce the leakage of high-temperature flue gas during transmission, which not only improves the thermal efficiency of the system, but also reduces environmental pollution caused by leakage.

[0022] Furthermore, the eccentric docking design enables the docked vertical smoke pipes to expand more naturally in a predetermined direction during thermal expansion and contraction, reducing the stress concentration that may be caused by straight docking, helping to extend the service life of the pipeline and reduce the risk of rupture caused by excessive stress; by deviating the center line of the docked vertical smoke pipes toward the direction of the middle limit device, the horizontal expansion of the smoke pipe can be more accurately controlled to ensure its docking accuracy with the kiln outlet pipe, thereby improving the stability and safety of the entire system.

[0038] Preferably, the smoke pipe is a steel smoke pipe;

[0039] Preferably, the expansion joint 4 is installed at the end of the horizontal left section of the smoke pipe 1-1 to absorb the horizontal expansion of the horizontal left section of the smoke pipe 1-1; when in the heating stage, the horizontal left section of the smoke pipe 1-1 can only expand to the left, compressing the expansion joint 4 to prevent the horizontal section from causing the fixed vertical smoke pipe 2 to be supported;

[0040] Preferably, at 600° C., the expansion amount of the left section of the smoke pipe 1 - 1 at the absorption level is about 30 mm.
