[0024] The utility model provides a pressure relief device for a fly ash tank truck when pumping fly ash into a silo. The technical solution of the utility model is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings to make it easier to understand and grasp.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] refer to Figure 1, a pressure relief device for fly ash when being pumped into a silo by a fly ash tank truck, comprising:

[0027] Bulk tanker fly ash pumping pipeline 1;

[0028] An expansion pipe 2, the upper end of which is connected to the fly ash pumping pipe 1 of the bulk tank truck. The expansion pipe 2 is used to change the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe so as to adjust the pressure and flow rate of the powder;

[0029] The first end of the arc tube is connected to the lower end of the expansion tube 2 to increase the pipeline resistance to reduce the conveying pressure of the powder and change the discharge direction of the fly ash into the silo;

[0030] The damping plate 4 is a mesh structure and is fixedly mounted on the second end of the arc tube;

[0031] The impact blind plate 5 is provided corresponding to the damping plate 4 and is fixedly connected to the damping plate 4 through multiple groups of support rods.

[0032] In this embodiment, the expansion tube 2 is a gradually expanding and contracting arc-shaped tube.

[0033] The upper end of the expansion pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the fly ash pumping pipeline 1 of the bulk tank truck through a reducer, and the lower end of the expansion pipe 2 is connected to the arc pipe, and the arc pipe is located in the warehouse.

[0034] Specifically, the expansion tube 2 is an arc-shaped structure, and the maximum diameter is Φ600 mm.

[0035] In this embodiment, the expansion pipe 2 adjusts the pressure and flow rate of the powder by changing the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe. This part is a primary pressure relief device.

[0036] In this embodiment, the diameter of the fly ash pumping pipeline 1 of the bulk tank truck is Φ150 mm.

[0037] In this embodiment, the arc tube is two butt-jointed 90° elbows 3 to change the vertical downward unloading to vertical upward unloading; wherein, the first ends of the two 90° elbows 3 are fixedly connected, the second end of one 90° elbow 3 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the expansion tube 2, and the second end of the other 90° elbow 3 is fixedly connected to the damping plate 4 through the expansion tube.

[0038] The 90° elbow 3 is a 90° elbow 3 with a diameter of Φ250 mm and a turning radius of R500 mm.

[0039] In this embodiment, the expansion pipe 2 is connected to two 90° elbows 3 with a diameter of 250 mm and a turning radius of R500 mm. Its function is to reduce the conveying pressure of the powder by increasing the pipeline resistance. At the same time, it changes the discharge direction of the fly ash into the silo from the original vertical downward discharge to vertical upward discharge. This part is a secondary pressure relief device.

[0040] In this embodiment, the diameter of the damping plate 4 is Φ1500 mm, and a number of Φ30 mm sieve holes are evenly arranged on the damping plate 4 .

[0041] The impact blind plate 5 is an arc-shaped plate, the concave cavity of the arc-shaped plate is arranged opposite to the damping plate 4, and is fixedly connected to the damping plate 4 through multiple groups of support rods.

[0042] Specifically, the impact blind plate 5 is an arc-shaped plate with a diameter of Φ1800 mm.

[0043] In this embodiment, the third-stage pressure relief uses a damping plate 4 with a diameter of Φ1500mm. The damping plate 4 adopts a mesh structure with a number of Φ30mm sieve holes evenly arranged on it. The vertically upward pressurized fly ash impacts the damping plate 4. Part of the material hits the blind plate of the damping plate 4 and rebounds, moving upward together with the material passing through the damping plate 4. This further reduces the speed and pressure of the material moving upward.

[0044] The pressure and velocity of the material passing through damping plate 4 are greatly reduced. Finally, it impacts the impact blind plate 5 (diameter 1800mm). It then diffuses around the impact blind plate 5 and discharges into the fly ash storage silo. This section constitutes the fourth-stage pressure relief device. At this point, the discharge area is 10.67 times the original discharge area. The fourth-stage pressure relief device also significantly reduces the impact of the pumped fly ash on the existing material layer in the storage silo, ensuring stable discharge from the silo bottom.

[0045] According to the flow calculation formula of pneumatic conveying:

[0046] Q=π×D 2 / 4×ν×ρ

[0047] Where: D is the pipe diameter; ν is the flow rate of the powder in the pipe; and ρ is the specific gravity of fly ash in air. Inside the expansion pipe 2, the pipe diameter increases and the flow rate decreases.

[0048] The local resistance coefficient ζ of the 90° elbow 3 is 0.294, which is converted into pressure loss h = ζν 2 / (2g)=0.015ν 2 m;

[0049] Where ν is the flow rate of the powder in the pipeline, and g is the weight acceleration. After passing through two 90° elbows 3, its pressure is reduced by 0.03ν 2 m.

[0050] Before entering damping plate 4, the fly ash delivery pipe diameter increases from Φ250mm to Φ1500mm, further reducing the flow rate. At the same time, the aperture ratio of damping plate 4 is calculated as 60%, and 40% of the conveyed material impacts damping plate 4, reducing the flow rate to zero. It then flows out of the gap after mixing with other materials, significantly reducing the overall material velocity. Finally, it impacts the Φ1500mm impact blind plate 5, unloading from all sides of the impact blind plate 5 and evenly dispersing into the fly ash storage bin. The pumping pressure is essentially released, and the fly ash flow rate is greatly reduced, preventing impact on the original material in the bin. At the same time, the entire pressure relief device is fixed at the top of the fly ash bin, at a certain distance from the original material layer, further reducing disturbance to the original material layer and ensuring the stability of the bottom discharge.

[0051] The utility model adopts a four-stage pressure reducing device. The first stage adopts an expansion pipe 2 to adjust the pressure and flow rate of the powder by changing the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipeline; the second stage adopts two 90° elbows 3 of Φ250mm to increase the pipeline resistance and change the conveying direction of the fly ash; the third stage is designed with a Φ1500mm damping plate 4 to increase the resistance and reduce the flow rate; the fourth stage adopts a Φ1800mm impact blind plate to increase the resistance and expand the conveying area.

[0052] The combined design of a four-stage pressure reducing device significantly reduces the pressure in the original fly ash pumping pipeline, significantly mitigating the impact on the fly ash layer within the storage silo and ensuring stable bottom discharge. Actual performance has shown minimal fluctuations in the silo bottom weighing scale, thus ensuring the quality of downstream products. The results are highly significant.

[0053] The above fully describes the technical solution of the present invention. It should be noted that the specific implementation methods of the present invention are not limited to the above description. All technical solutions formed by ordinary technicians in this field using equivalent or equivalent transformations in structure, method or function based on the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
