Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rotary kiln technology, specifically, it is a support device for protecting the temperature measuring hole of a rotary kiln. Background Technology
[0002] Rotary kilns are important industrial equipment, primarily used for heat treatment and chemical reactions of materials, and are widely used in building materials, metallurgy, chemical industry, and environmental protection. Refractory materials not only protect the kiln body from high temperatures and chemical corrosion, but also reduce heat loss during operation, improving energy efficiency. They also participate in the heat transfer process to a certain extent, ensuring uniform heat distribution within the kiln, which is beneficial for material roasting and reactions. The main function of temperature measuring holes in rotary kilns is to allow temperature measuring devices (such as thermocouples, resistance temperature detectors, or infrared thermometers) to be inserted into the kiln to accurately measure the temperature at different locations within the kiln. The design of the temperature measuring holes must match the temperature measuring devices to ensure accurate and stable insertion and fixation. This is crucial for monitoring the kiln's operating status, ensuring product quality, and preventing equipment failure. During use, temperature measuring holes may be affected by factors such as material erosion and scaling, leading to damage to the measuring devices or inaccurate measurements. In conclusion, refractory materials and temperature measuring devices play a crucial role in rotary kilns, serving as key factors in ensuring their normal operation and efficient production. Therefore, the protective device around the temperature measuring hole must not only be tightly connected to the kiln body but also withstand various stresses during production and be locked to the refractory bricks of its surrounding ring to ensure the accuracy and safety of the temperature measuring device.
[0003] The quality of refractory lining directly affects the operational stability of a rotary kiln and has a significant impact on its service life. During continuous production in a rotary kiln, the refractory materials in the kiln body are prone to damage, segregation, and detachment under a series of physical and chemical reactions and various stresses, especially the refractory bricks in the ring containing the temperature measuring holes. Currently, the refractory lining construction for the ring containing the temperature measuring holes in rotary kilns mainly uses castable refractory, which is greatly affected by the construction environment. Improper handling of construction details can easily lead to cracking and detachment of the castable refractory, resulting in kiln shutdown for maintenance and affecting the normal operation of the rotary kiln. The susceptibility of the temperature measuring holes to damage and the difficulty in securing the refractory bricks in the ring (due to the cumbersome nature of castable refractory construction) can cause the temperature measuring holes to break due to thermal expansion and contraction during production and shutdown, creating gaps between the bricks and leading to refractory brick collapse.
[0004] Therefore, the known methods of setting up temperature measuring holes in rotary kilns have the aforementioned inconveniences and problems. Utility Model Content

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. Example
[0023] The present invention relates to a support device for protecting the temperature measuring hole of a rotary kiln, comprising a fence, two Y-shaped bars, and two crossbars.
[0024] Please see now Figure 1-3 As shown in the figure, the fence is a fence made of four steel plates 2. The fence surrounds the temperature measuring hole 4 in the refractory bricks of the rotary kiln. The bottom of the fence is fixedly welded to the furnace shell 1. The curvature of the welded surface of the steel plate and the furnace shell is consistent with the curvature of the furnace shell. The height of the steel plate is 150mm and the thickness of the steel plate is 12mm.
[0025] The two Y-shaped weight bars 3 are steel bars used as anchors. The two Y-shaped weight bars are set on both sides of the temperature measuring hole inside the enclosure. The straight bar of the Y-shaped weight bar is radially upright with the temperature measuring hole tube, and the straight bar end of the Y-shaped weight bar is welded to the furnace shell. The height of the Y-shaped weight bar is 80% of the thickness of the refractory brick.
[0026] The two horizontal bars 5 are horizontally arranged steel bars, which are positioned on both sides of the temperature measuring hole inside the fence. The two ends of each horizontal bar are welded to the corresponding fence steel plate 2, and the middle portions of each horizontal bar are welded to the opening of the Y-shaped weight bar. The diameter of both the Y-shaped weight bar and the horizontal bars is 8mm.
[0027] The support device protecting the temperature measuring hole of the rotary kiln is also filled with micro-expansion castable or plastic material.
[0028] This utility model has substantial features and significant technological advancements. The support device for protecting the temperature measuring hole of the rotary kiln is pre-welded into the kiln body by laying out lines before the adjacent refractory bricks of the ring containing the temperature measuring hole are laid. The anchors connected to the kiln body and the temperature measuring hole must be on the same line. The arc of the welding surface of the steel plate and the furnace shell is consistent with the arc of the furnace shell to ensure that the angle between the steel plate and the refractory bricks being laid is consistent. Then, the refractory bricks are laid until they are tightly fitted with the steel plate. Finally, the temperature measuring hole is turned to the horizontal plane for the internal casting of the support device (plastic).
[0029] This utility model discloses a support device for protecting the temperature measuring holes of rotary kilns. It overcomes the problems of existing technologies where the temperature measuring holes are easily damaged and the surrounding refractory bricks are difficult to secure (due to the cumbersome casting process). Furthermore, during production and shutdown, thermal expansion and contraction can cause the temperature measuring holes to break, creating gaps between the bricks and leading to refractory brick collapse. The aim is to provide a support device for temperature measuring holes that can securely lock the surrounding refractory bricks, ensuring high safety.
[0030] The above embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions should also fall within the scope of this utility model and should be defined by the claims.
