Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat energy recovery and utilization, and in particular to a waste heat recovery device for power plants. Background Technology
[0002] Waste heat recovery from power plants is an important measure to improve energy efficiency, reduce energy waste, and mitigate environmental impact. In thermal power generation, only a portion of the heat generated by fuel combustion is used for power generation, while the majority is typically discharged as waste heat through cooling water or chimneys. This underutilized heat is called "waste heat," and effective waste heat recovery can significantly improve the overall energy efficiency of power plants.
[0003] Traditional waste heat recovery devices typically use water-based heat exchangers to absorb waste heat. However, during the emission of high-temperature flue gas, impurities in the flue gas adhere to the surface of the heat exchanger, which affects the efficiency of the heat exchanger after prolonged use. Furthermore, the internal space of the waste heat recovery device is relatively narrow, making the cleaning process of the heat exchanger inconvenient and requiring improvement. Utility Model Content

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: a sealing ring is provided on the inner wall of the mounting hole, and sealing grooves for the sealing ring to be embedded are provided at both ends of the heat exchanger.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured as follows: the heat exchanger includes a frame, an inlet pipe, an outlet pipe, and multiple sets of heat exchange tubes. The frame is rectangular, the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are respectively horizontally arranged on one side of the frame, and the heat exchange tubes are serpentine, connecting the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe.

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a waste heat recovery device for power plants includes a base 1, a recovery box 2, multiple heat exchangers 3, a baffle 4, and a locking mechanism 5.
[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the base 1 is vertically mounted on the ground, and the recovery box 2 is horizontally mounted on the base 1, with an air inlet 21 and an air outlet 22 at each end. Multiple heat exchangers 3 are vertically and spaced apart inside the recovery box 2, and the recovery box 2 has mounting holes 23 through which the heat exchangers 3 pass.
[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the baffle 4 is located at one end of the heat exchanger 3 and is used to abut against the outer wall of the recovery tank 2. The inner wall of the mounting hole 23 is provided with a sealing ring 24, and both ends of the heat exchanger 3 are provided with sealing grooves 25 for the sealing ring 24 to be embedded in, so as to increase the sealing performance during operation.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the locking mechanism 5 is disposed on the outer wall of the recovery tank 2 and is used to fix the heat exchanger 3. The locking mechanism 5 includes a locking block 51, a plug rod 52, and a driving component 54. The locking block 51 is vertically slidably connected to the recovery tank 2 and is distributed above and below the heat exchanger 3. The plug rod 52 is disposed on the locking block 51, and the heat exchanger 3 is provided with a plug hole 53 for the plug rod 52 to be inserted.
[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the drive unit 54 is used to control the relative sliding of a pair of locking blocks 51. The drive unit 54 includes a bidirectional screw 55 and a handwheel 56. The bidirectional screw 55 is vertically rotatably connected to the recycling bin 2 and threadedly connected to a pair of locking blocks 51. The handwheel 56 is disposed on the bidirectional screw 55.
[0030] When it is necessary to clean the heat exchanger 3, the control handwheel 56 drives the bidirectional screw 55 to rotate. The bidirectional screw 55 drives a pair of locking blocks 51 to move away from each other. The locking blocks 51 drive the insertion rod 52 to disengage from the insertion hole 53 on the heat exchanger 3, thereby releasing the lock of the heat exchanger 3. Then, the heat exchanger 3 can be pulled outward to disassemble and clean the heat exchanger 3.
[0031] After cleaning, insert the heat exchanger 3 into the mounting hole 23, and then push the heat exchanger 3 to slide horizontally until the baffle 4 touches the side wall of the recovery box 2. Then, control the handwheel 56 to drive the bidirectional screw 55 to rotate in the opposite direction. The bidirectional screw 55 drives a pair of locking blocks 51 to move closer to each other. The locking blocks 51 drive the insertion rod 52 to insert into the insertion hole 53 on the heat exchanger 3, thereby achieving the locking installation of the heat exchanger 3.
[0032] Therefore, by setting up grouped heat exchangers 3 and enabling individual disassembly of each group of heat exchangers 3, the heat exchangers 3 can be disassembled and cleaned, making the cleaning process of the heat exchangers 3 more convenient, avoiding too many impurities adhering to the surface of the heat exchangers 3, and ensuring the working efficiency of the heat exchangers 3.
[0033] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the heat exchanger 3 includes a frame 31, an inlet pipe 32, an outlet pipe 33, and multiple sets of heat exchange tubes 34. The frame 31 is rectangular, the inlet pipe 32 and the outlet pipe 33 are horizontally arranged on one side of the frame 31, and the heat exchange tubes 34 are serpentine, connecting the inlet pipe 32 and the outlet pipe 33.
[0034] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the frame 31 is provided with a pressure plate 35 for fixing the corner position of the heat exchange tube 34, and the frame 31 is provided with a hook 36. The pressure plate 35 is provided with a locking hole 37 for the hook 36 to pass through. Therefore, during the installation of the heat exchange tube 34, the heat exchange tube 34 can be locked and fixed, increasing the stability of the heat exchange tube 34 during operation and effectively improving the working efficiency of the heat exchanger 3.

After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to these embodiments without contributing any inventive step, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
