Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of downdraft biomass gasifiers, in particular to a grate driving mechanism of a downdraft biomass gasifier. Background Art

[0002] A downdraft biomass gasifier converts biomass into combustible gas. By controlling the air supply to achieve incomplete combustion, it converts low-value solid biomass into high-value gaseous fuel. The gas produced during the gasification process can be used for industrial or residential purposes, or to power internal combustion engines for power generation. Downdraft gasifiers are widely used due to their simple structure, easy operation, and adaptability.

[0003] According to the disclosure (announcement) number: CN201648327U, the disclosure (announcement) date: 2010-11-24, a central suction biomass gasifier is disclosed, including a furnace body, a pressing device, an ash removal device and a wet ash removal device arranged below the furnace body. The inner cavity of the furnace body is composed of a storage chamber, a tar filter chamber and a gasification chamber from top to bottom. A feeding port connected to an external feeding device is provided at the top of the storage chamber, and a gas channel connected to the tar filter chamber is provided between the storage chamber and the inner wall of the furnace body. The pressing device is arranged in the tar filter chamber and is connected to a first drive device outside the furnace body through a first transmission shaft. The ash removal device is arranged in the gasification chamber and is connected to a second drive device outside the furnace body through a second transmission shaft. The gasification chamber is connected to the wet ash removal device through an ash removal tray, and a blast device is provided at the lower part of the furnace body.

[0004] It can be seen from the above-mentioned patents and prior art that when a gasifier is in use, the biological raw materials need to be placed downward on the furnace cover, and then pass through the drying layer, pyrolysis layer, oxidation layer and reduction layer. During the gasification process, the raw materials lose moisture in the drying layer, volatile matter is precipitated in the pyrolysis layer and undergoes pyrolysis reaction, and then an incomplete oxidation reaction occurs with oxygen in the air in the oxidation layer. Finally, the remaining char in the reduction zone reacts with carbon dioxide and water vapor in the gas to generate combustible gases such as carbon monoxide, hydrogen and methane. However, when feeding, if too much material is fed at one time, the biological raw materials will not react thoroughly. If less material is fed, the energy released in the gasifier will be wasted.
