Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biomass combustion device optimization technology, specifically, a biomass fuel feeding device and combustion system. Background Technology

[0002] Compared with coal, biomass pellets have advantages in combustion efficiency, operating costs, environmental friendliness, combustion characteristics, and policy support, so more and more customers are choosing biomass pellets as fuel.

[0003] Currently available biomass combustion systems are characterized by complex structures, large sizes, high costs, and a tendency to burn out the furnace. Furthermore, the feeding speed of existing biomass combustion systems' feeders cannot match the feeding speed of the loader. Specifically, because feeders typically use pipes to allow biomass fuel to flow into the combustion chamber, the current feeders, with a fixed pipe diameter at the feed inlet, have a very low full-load feeding capacity. When rapid feeding is required, i.e., when the loader's feeding speed is high enough, the low upper limit of the feeding speed easily causes blockage at the feed inlet. As the loader's feeding speed increases, material blockage can also easily damage the loader. Utility Model Content

[0004] One of the objectives of this invention is to provide a biomass fuel feeding device to solve the problem that the feeding speed of existing feeding devices is difficult to match with the feeding speed when feeding a large amount of fuel.

[0005] The second objective of this utility model is to provide a biomass fuel combustion system that can not only adapt to slow feeding, but also prevent blockage due to untimely feeding during rapid feeding.

[0006] To achieve one of the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical means:

[0007] A biomass fuel feeding device includes an inclined lifting device. The top of the lifting device serves as a discharge end and is connected to a vertically downward first material pipe. The bottom end of the first material pipe is connected to a downwardly inclined second material pipe, the bottom end of which serves as a discharge outlet. A blower is installed on the side wall of the first material pipe, and the blower's air outlet is horizontally positioned. The blower is located at the corner where the first material pipe and the second material pipe meet, and the blower's air outlet is connected to the material channel formed by the connection between the first material pipe and the second material pipe.

[0008] Preferably, the material lifting device is a auger feeder.

[0009] Furthermore, the blower's air inlet is connected to the material channel via an air inlet pipe, the air inlet pipe extends into the material channel and into the second material pipe, and the air outlet of the air inlet pipe is positioned facing the bottom end of the second material pipe.

[0010] Furthermore, the air inlet pipe includes a horizontal pipe extending into the first material pipe and an inclined pipe disposed inside the second material pipe and coaxially disposed with the second material pipe. The horizontal pipe and the inclined pipe are connected and disposed in communication. The gap between the inner wall of the second material pipe and the outer wall of the inclined pipe serves as a gap for material to pass through.

[0011] Furthermore, a support rod is installed around the outer wall of the inclined tube along its axis, and the other end of the support rod is connected to the inner wall of the second material tube. There are three support rods, and adjacent support rods are equidistant from each other.

[0012] Furthermore, the side wall of the first material pipe is connected to a ventilation pipe, which is inclined upwards, and a cover is detachably installed at the opening of the ventilation pipe.

[0013] The feeding device involved in this utility model has the following beneficial effects during use:

[0014] Biomass material is lifted to a high position by a feeding device and falls from the discharge end into the first feed pipe under gravity. It then enters the combustion chamber through a downward-sloping second feed pipe. The vertically positioned first feed pipe allows the material to fall quickly, while the inclined second feed pipe slows it down, reducing its movement speed and causing some material to accumulate in the second feed pipe. This allows the material to enter the combustion chamber in a concentrated state, increasing the amount of material fed per unit time while maintaining a constant material velocity. Furthermore, a blower directs air into the material channel. The blower is positioned at the junction of the first and second feed pipes, allowing a large amount of air to enter the combustion chamber through the inclined second feed pipe. This not only prevents the second feed pipe from becoming blocked due to material accumulation but also quickly disperses the material falling from the second feed pipe, preventing excessive material buildup that could negatively impact combustion efficiency. Furthermore, by using a blower, when a large amount of airflow enters the combustion chamber through the second feed pipe, and rapid feeding is required (i.e., when the feeding speed of the lifting device increases), the blower quickly blows the material out of the second feed pipe, preventing material accumulation. At the same time, the outward airflow in the second feed pipe can also generate negative pressure, allowing the material in the first feed pipe to enter the second feed pipe more quickly and be added to the combustion chamber. This effectively avoids blockages caused by delayed material discharge from the first and second feed pipes due to the increased feeding speed of the lifting device.

[0015] Furthermore, in order to achieve the second objective mentioned above, this application employs the following technical means:

[0016] A biomass fuel combustion system includes the aforementioned biomass fuel feeding device. The first feed pipe includes a positioning pipe connected to the feeding device. The bottom end of the positioning pipe is detachably connected to a connecting pipe. The blower is installed on the side wall of the connecting pipe. The second feed pipe includes a passing pipe fixedly connected to the connecting pipe. The bottom end of the passing pipe is coaxially detachably connected to a discharge pipe extending into the burner.

[0017] Furthermore, the air outlet of the air inlet pipe is located inside the material passage pipe.

[0018] The biomass fuel combustion system disclosed in this application has the following beneficial effects during use:

[0019] By placing the air inlet pipe inside the second feed pipe, the airflow blown in by the blower is prevented from flowing upwards into the first feed pipe, thus avoiding any obstruction of material flow in the first feed pipe due to the blower. Furthermore, when the blower increases its force, it can better generate negative pressure, allowing material in the first feed pipe to be drawn into the second feed pipe, and then quickly enter the burner under the action of the blower. Moreover, by disassembling the connecting pipes and positioning pipes, as well as the connecting feed pipes and discharge pipes, the section containing the blower can be easily replaced and maintained. Only the entire unit needs to be replaced for quick maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1As shown, a biomass fuel feeding device includes an inclined lifting device 1. The top of the lifting device 1 serves as a discharge end and is connected to a vertically downward first material pipe 2. The bottom end of the first material pipe 2 is connected to a downwardly inclined second material pipe 3, and the bottom end of the second material pipe 3 serves as a discharge port. A blower 4 is installed on the side wall of the first material pipe 2. The blower 4 has a horizontally positioned air outlet and is located at the corner where the first material pipe 2 and the second material pipe 3 meet. The air outlet of the blower 4 is connected to a material channel 5 formed by the connection between the first material pipe 2 and the second material pipe 3.

[0030] In this way, the biomass material is lifted to a high position by the lifting device 1, and then falls from the unloading end into the first feed pipe 2 under gravity. It then enters the combustion chamber through the downward-sloping second feed pipe 3. The vertically arranged first feed pipe 2 allows the material to fall quickly, while the inclined second feed pipe 3 slows down the material, reducing its movement speed and causing some material to accumulate in the second feed pipe 3. This allows the material to enter the combustion chamber in an accumulated state, thus increasing the amount of material fed per unit time while maintaining a constant material velocity. Furthermore, a blower 4 blows air into the material channel 5. The air blown in by the blower 4 is positioned at the junction of the first and second feed pipes 2 and 3, allowing a large amount of air to enter the combustion chamber through the inclined second feed pipe 3. This not only prevents the second feed pipe 3 from becoming blocked due to material accumulation, but also quickly disperses the material falling from the second feed pipe 3, preventing the material from becoming difficult to disperse due to excessive feeding and affecting combustion efficiency. Furthermore, by using the blower 4, when a large amount of airflow enters the combustion chamber through the second material pipe 3, and when rapid feeding is required (i.e., when the feeding speed of the lifting device 1 increases), the blower 4 quickly blows the material out of the second material pipe 3, preventing material accumulation. At the same time, the outward airflow in the second material pipe 3 can also generate negative pressure, allowing the material in the first material pipe 2 to enter the second material pipe 3 more quickly and be added to the combustion chamber. This effectively prevents blockage caused by the increased feeding speed of the lifting device 1, which could result in untimely discharge from the first and second material pipes 2 and 3.

[0031] Specifically, the material lifting device 1 is a auger feeder.

[0032] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the airflow blown into the blower 4 does not flow into the first material pipe 2, thereby avoiding affecting the material feeding of the first material pipe 2, the blower port of the blower 4 is connected to the material channel 5 through the air inlet pipe 6. The air inlet pipe 6 extends into the material channel 5 and into the second material pipe 3, and the air outlet of the air inlet pipe 6 is set towards the bottom end of the second material pipe 3.

[0033] Specifically, for the air inlet pipe 6, the air inlet pipe 6 includes a horizontal pipe extending into the first material pipe 2 and an inclined pipe disposed inside the second material pipe 3 and coaxially disposed with the second material pipe 3. The horizontal pipe and the inclined pipe are connected and disposed in communication. The gap between the inner wall of the second material pipe 3 and the outer wall of the inclined pipe serves as a gap for material to pass through.

[0034] The outer wall of the inclined tube is equipped with a support rod 7 around its axis. The other end of the support rod 7 is connected to the inner wall of the second material tube 3. There are three support rods 7, and adjacent support rods 7 are equidistant from each other.

[0035] In this way, the stability of the inclined tube is increased by setting the support rod 7, so as to avoid the inclined tube shaking during the operation of the blower 4, which would affect the movement of materials in the second feed pipe 3.

[0036] Furthermore, in order to prevent some material from remaining on the side of the support rod 7 facing the first material pipe 2 after feeding is stopped, a ventilation pipe 8 is connected to the side wall of the first material pipe 2. The ventilation pipe 8 is inclined upward, and a cover 9 is detached and installed at the pipe opening of the ventilation pipe 8.

[0037] After feeding is complete, the baffle 9 is opened, and the blower 4 is turned on again. The air inlet pipe 6 continuously blows air, drawing air from outside the ventilation pipe 8 into the first material pipe 2. The drawn-in air is then discharged through the second material pipe 3. This airflow generated by the suction blows away any remaining material on the support rod 7 towards the first material pipe 2. This prevents material residue, and the upward tilt design effectively prevents material from entering the ventilation pipe 8 as it falls through the first material pipe 2, thus avoiding blockage of the ventilation pipe 8.

[0038] Furthermore, in another embodiment, please combine with Figure 2 As shown, a biomass fuel combustion system includes the aforementioned biomass fuel feeding device. The first feed pipe 2 includes a positioning pipe 21 that communicates with the feeding device 1. The bottom end of the positioning pipe 21 is detachably connected to a connecting pipe 22. The blower 4 is installed on the side wall of the connecting pipe 22. The second feed pipe 3 includes a passing pipe 31 that is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 22. The bottom end of the passing pipe 31 is coaxially detachably connected to a discharge pipe 32 that extends into the burner 10.

[0039] In this way, by placing the air inlet pipe 6 inside the second feed pipe 3, it is ensured that the airflow blown in by the blower 4 will not flow upwards into the first feed pipe 2, thus preventing the material from falling into the first feed pipe 2 due to the placement of the blower 4. Furthermore, when the blower 4 increases its airflow, it can better generate negative pressure, allowing the material in the first feed pipe 2 to be drawn into the second feed pipe 3, and then quickly enter the burner 10 under the action of the blower 4. Moreover, by disassembling the connecting pipe 22 and the positioning pipe 21, as well as the connecting material pipe 31 and the unloading pipe 32, the part containing the blower 4 can be easily replaced and maintained. Only the entire unit needs to be replaced, allowing for quick maintenance.

[0040] Furthermore, the air outlet of the air inlet pipe 6 is located inside the material passage pipe 31.

[0041] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
