AI Technical Summary
Baghouse dust collectors have short service life, and desulfurization and denitrification equipment has high operating costs and poor stability. Existing technologies cannot effectively remove solid impurities such as large particles, tar particles, droplets, and high-temperature sparks from the gas in advance, which affects the stable operation of the equipment.
A labyrinth-type collector is designed to reduce the velocity of flue gas by expanding the flue gas flow cross-section, and then increase the velocity by narrowing the cross-section through the labyrinth channel. This intercepts impurities such as solid particles, tar particles, and high-temperature sparks, achieving efficient collection of impurities and dropping them into the lower ash hopper to protect downstream equipment.
It effectively removes impurities from flue gas, extends equipment lifespan, improves system efficiency, achieves stable equipment operation, and enhances the operating efficiency and environmental benefits of the waste gas treatment system.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of environmental protection equipment technology, specifically relating to a labyrinth trap. Background Technology
[0002] With increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements from national and local environmental authorities, especially the implementation of ultra-low emission policies (hourly average emission concentrations of particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides not exceeding 10, 35, and 50 mg / m³, respectively), factories in various sectors are equipping their coal gas, flue gas, and exhaust gas systems with dust removal, desulfurization, and denitrification equipment. Dust removal often utilizes baghouse dust collectors, but the operation of these bags is subject to certain temperature requirements, and their lifespan is frequently affected by abrasion from large dust particles, tar and droplet clogging, and high-temperature sparks burning the bags. Furthermore, desulfurization and denitrification equipment also often suffers from high operating costs and poor stability due to these factors.
[0003] Therefore, developing a device suitable for capturing and removing solid and solid-like impurities from gases is crucial for ensuring the safe and stable operation of subsequent bag filters, desulfurization and denitrification equipment.
[0004] Chinese patent application CN113289420A discloses an air filtration device with a dust removal function. This patent uses a dust removal mechanism to remove impurities from exhaust gas, reducing the probability of stones contacting the dust filter bag and effectively preventing scratches. It also includes an auxiliary mechanism to shake off dust adhering to the surface of the dust filter bag, preventing it from affecting the bag's air permeability and thus avoiding any impact on the air purification efficiency. While this patent removes impurities from the exhaust gas, it primarily protects the dust filter bag by using the dust removal and auxiliary mechanisms to prevent contact with stones and maintains its air permeability through vibration. Essentially, this patent still relies on the dust removal effect of the dust filter bag and does not pre-treat large particulate solid impurities in the exhaust gas to protect the stable operation of subsequent equipment. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To overcome the problems of short service life of baghouse dust collectors and high operating costs and poor stability of desulfurization and denitrification equipment, this utility model pre-treats the gas before it enters the baghouse dust collector or desulfurization and denitrification equipment. This removes solid impurities and solid-like impurities such as large particles, tar particles, droplets, and high-temperature sparks from the gas, ensuring the safe and stable operation of subsequent equipment.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a labyrinth trap, including a trap body, a gas inlet and a gas outlet, with the gas inlet and gas outlet respectively located on both sides of the trap body; the trap body includes a shell, a ash hopper and internal components; the ash hopper is located at the lower part of the shell; the internal components are located in the cavity inside the shell and welded to the inner wall of the shell.
[0007] Furthermore, an ash discharge valve is provided at the outlet of the ash hopper.
[0008] Furthermore, the lower interior wall panel of the housing has an inclination angle of 60° to 65°.
[0009] Furthermore, both the gas inlet and the gas outlet have circular cross-sections.
[0010] Furthermore, the internal cavity of the shell is cylindrical.
[0011] Furthermore, the number of internal components is at least seven, arranged alternately inside the housing.
[0012] Furthermore, the internal components include a steel profile and a composite body. The steel profile is cylindrical, and the cross-section of the composite body is rectangular. The height of the steel profile is the same as the length of the cross-section of the composite body. The two are welded together, and their cross-sections are shaped like a "9".
[0013] Furthermore, the composite is in the form of a louver panel made of fire-resistant fiber fabric or steel mesh welded to flat steel.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. Highly efficient impurity removal: This invention uses a design that first increases the cross-section of the flue gas flow to reduce its speed, and then decreases the cross-section through a labyrinth channel to increase its speed. This design effectively intercepts impurities such as solid particles, tar particles, droplets, and high-temperature sparks in the flue gas during repeated speed changes, and they fall into the lower ash hopper, thus achieving highly efficient impurity removal.
[0016] 2. Protection of downstream equipment: This utility model can effectively remove large-particle impurities from the gas, avoiding damage to downstream waste gas treatment equipment, extending the service life of the equipment, and ensuring the stable operation of the system.
[0017] 3. Improved System Efficiency: This invention reduces the processing burden on subsequent equipment and improves the overall processing efficiency of the waste gas treatment system. Simultaneously, it reduces equipment downtime caused by impurities, thus improving system operating efficiency.
[0018] 4. Significant Environmental Benefits: This invention effectively removes impurities from flue gas, helps reduce air pollutant emissions, and effectively improves air quality, ensuring that flue gas emissions meet environmental protection requirements. Therefore, this invention has significant environmental benefits. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a labyrinth-type trap, which consists of a gas inlet 1, a trap body 2, and a gas outlet 3 from left to right. The trap body 2 includes a shell 201, a ash hopper 202, and a core internal component 203. The internal component 203 adopts a labyrinth structure with multiple rows arranged at intervals, designed as an alternating distribution of 2 to 7 rows.
[0031] External gas or industrial waste gas flows into the collector body 2 through gas inlet 1. Within the collector body 2, as the airflow propels the gas, larger solid particles, tar, droplets, or sparks are effectively captured and intercepted in the internal components 203. These particles then settle into the ash hopper 202 under gravity. After this initial filtration process, the purified gas flows smoothly through gas outlet 3 to the next stage of gas treatment equipment.
[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the core component of the trap is a labyrinthine internal component 203 arranged in multiple rows. The internal component 203 is composed of a composite 203-2 of steel profile 203-1 with steel mesh and refractory fiber fabric fixed on it. The steel profile 203-1 can also be flexibly replaced with angle steel or flat steel according to actual needs.
[0033] Example 2
[0034] like Figure 2As shown, the labyrinth-type dust collector is installed at the flue gas inlet of the bag filter, effectively capturing and removing large particles and potential high-temperature sparks from the flue gas. When external industrial waste gas flows into the main body 2 of the dust collector through the gas inlet 1, the larger solid particles continue to flow into the interior of the bag filter with the airflow. These large solid impurities are precisely captured and effectively intercepted by the internal components 203 of the main body 2. Subsequently, under the action of gravity, these impurities naturally fall into the dust hopper 202 built into the bag filter. Because the dust collector has its own dust hopper 202, there is no need to set up a separate dust hopper for the dust collector, thus simplifying the system structure. After the industrial waste gas has been pretreated, the flue gas with impurities removed enters the bag filter for a more refined dust removal process, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the emitted gas.
[0035] This labyrinth-style filter, combined with a baghouse dust collector, can effectively prevent the wear and burn-out of the filter bags. By capturing large particles and high-temperature sparks, it significantly reduces the wear of the filter bags in the baghouse dust collector and extends the service life of the baghouse dust collector.
[0036] Example 3
[0037] The rest of this embodiment is the same as that of embodiment 1, and the internal component 203 is described in detail.
[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the labyrinth-type internal component 203 can be a composite structure of steel mesh and flat steel welded louvered plate 203-3. The length of the internal component 203 is equal to the length of the trap shell, and the height of the internal component 203 is adjusted according to the gas volume and the shell height.
[0039] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, and not all feasible embodiments of the present invention. Any obvious modifications made by those skilled in the art without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention should be considered to be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
