Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pulverized coal combustion technology, specifically to a plasma ignition device. Background Technology

[0002] The plasma ignition device utilizes direct current to ignite an arc under a certain air pressure in the air medium, and obtains a stable power DC air plasma under the control of a strong magnetic field. This plasma forms a local high-temperature zone with a temperature T>4000K and a large temperature gradient in the central combustion tube of a specially designed burner. When pulverized coal particles come into contact with this high-temperature air plasma flow, the pulverized coal particles are rapidly broken up and burned. At the same time, the plasma flow and pulverized coal undergo a thermochemical reaction, releasing a large amount of volatiles from the pulverized coal, which intensifies the combustion of the pulverized coal and ignites it. The pulverized coal ignited in the ignition burner forms a combustion flame that is injected into the furnace, further igniting the pulverized coal injected into the furnace from the other burners, thereby achieving the purpose of igniting and starting the pulverized coal furnace.

[0003] Current plasma ignition devices, when igniting based on a plasma generator, place the ignition tube of the plasma generator inside the pulverized coal duct. After ignition, the ignition tube will obstruct the transport of pulverized coal inside the duct, affecting the normal transport of pulverized coal. At the same time, the ignition tube of the plasma generator is prone to accelerated damage if it is in the duct for a long time. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a plasma ignition device that solves the problem that in current plasma ignition devices, when igniting based on a plasma generator, the ignition tube of the plasma generator is placed inside the pulverized coal duct. After ignition, the ignition tube will obstruct the transport of pulverized coal inside the duct, affecting the normal transport of pulverized coal. At the same time, the ignition tube of the plasma generator is prone to accelerated damage if it is kept inside the duct for a long time.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a plasma ignition device with the following advantages:

[0017] 1. By connecting a side pipe to the end of the air duct, the plasma generator is installed in an insert manner. Through the drive structure composed of a connecting screw, guide rod, micro motor and connecting block, the plasma generator and ignition tube are driven inside the side pipe. During ignition, the tube moves, allowing the ignition tube to penetrate into the combustion chamber for ignition. Based on the reset of the plasma generator, the ignition tube can drive the matching convex ring to engage in the matching groove after ignition. At the same time, the fire-resistant cotton ring at the edge of the matching convex ring can make close contact with the matching groove, thereby sealing the connection position between the ignition tube and the partition plate, keeping the primary air duct and the combustion chamber connected, and facilitating combustion.

[0018] By designing the plasma generator as a movable structure, it can be used deeply during ignition and can be effectively stored after ignition, preventing the ignition tube from affecting the normal transportation of pulverized coal and avoiding accelerated damage to the ignition tube.

[0019] 2. By connecting the ring box, gas supply sleeve, gas collection chamber, and distribution gas trough, when the secondary air duct supplies gas, the airflow and pulverized coal can be concentrated in the gas collection chamber before being evenly discharged by the evenly arranged distribution gas trough. This allows the airflow and pulverized coal to be effectively and evenly distributed before transportation. Combined with the baffle plate, a separate gas supply channel is formed between the ignition extension pipe and the gas supply sleeve. The guide strip keeps the gas and pulverized coal evenly distributed when passing through, so that the airflow and pulverized coal after the initial equalization can be guided and transported in an orderly manner in a separate channel. The pulverized coal and airflow can then be discharged and burned through the jet bend pipe, ensuring uniformity and complete combustion of pulverized coal. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a plasma ignition device, including a primary air duct 1, one end of the primary air duct 1 is connected to a connecting side pipe 2, a plasma generator 3 is installed inside the connecting side pipe 2, the end of the plasma generator 3 is connected to an ignition pipe 4, and a partition plate 5 is fixedly installed on one side inside the connecting side pipe 2, a combustion chamber 6 is provided on one side of the top of the primary air duct 1, and an ignition extension pipe 7 is connected to the discharge end of the primary air duct 1, and a secondary air duct 8 is connected to the top of the ignition extension pipe 7.

[0032] A connecting screw 9 is rotatably connected to the top inner side of the connecting side tube 2, and a guide rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the connecting side tube 2. The connecting screw 9 and the guide rod 10 are arranged parallel to each other, and a micro motor 11 is connected to the end of the connecting screw 9. The connecting screw 9 is connected to the drive shaft of the micro motor 11. The micro motor 11 is fixedly installed on the end cap that can be detachably connected to the end of the connecting side tube 2. The connecting screw 9 is rotatably connected inside the end cap. The micro motor 11 drives the connecting screw 9 to rotate, so that the micro motor 11 is stably installed. The side of the plasma generator 3 is connected to the connecting screw 9 and the guide rod 10 respectively through the connecting block 12. One connecting block 12 on the side of the plasma generator 3 is connected to the connecting screw 9 by a thread, and the other connecting block 12 is slidably connected to the guide rod 10. This allows the plasma generator 3 and the ignition tube 4 to move inside the connecting side tube 2.

[0033] The ignition tube 4 has a matching protruding ring 13 at its edge, and the partition plate 5 has a matching groove 14 at its edge. The matching protruding ring 13 is also provided with a fire-resistant cotton ring 15 at its edge. The ignition tube 4 moves the matching protruding ring 13 into the matching groove 14, and the matching protruding ring 13 and the matching groove 14 are matched and connected. The fire-resistant cotton ring 15 is in close contact with the inside of the matching groove 14, thereby sealing the connection between the ignition tube 4 and the partition plate 5, so that the primary air duct 1 and the combustion chamber 6 are kept connected, which facilitates combustion.

[0034] A connecting ring box 16 is connected to the outer side of the ignition extension tube 7 at the location corresponding to the secondary air duct 8. An air supply sleeve 17 is connected to the end of the connecting ring box 16 at the location outside the secondary air duct 8. An air collection chamber 18 is provided inside the connecting ring box 16. A distribution air groove 19 is evenly opened at the end of the connecting ring box 16. An air jet bend 22 is connected to the end of the air supply sleeve 17 at the location corresponding to the distribution air groove 19.

[0035] The inner side of the gas supply sleeve 17 is provided with baffles 20 at equal angles, and the baffles 20 are provided with guide strips 21 evenly. The outlet of the secondary air pipe 8 is connected to the gas collection chamber 18 inside the connecting ring box 16. Two sets of baffles 20 are provided on the inner side of the gas supply sleeve 17 corresponding to a distribution gas groove 19 and a jet bend 22. The two sets of baffles 20 form a separate gas supply chamber between the ignition extension pipe 7 and the gas supply sleeve 17. When the secondary air pipe 8 supplies gas, the airflow and coal dust can be concentrated in the gas collection chamber 18 first, and then evenly discharged by the evenly distributed distribution gas groove 19. This allows the airflow and coal dust to be effectively and evenly distributed before transportation. Combined with the baffles 20 forming a separate gas supply channel between the ignition extension pipe 7 and the gas supply sleeve 17, the guide strips 21 keep the gas and coal dust evenly distributed when passing through, so that the airflow and coal dust after initial equalization can be orderly guided and transported in the separate channel.

[0036] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: In actual application, when the unit is ignited, the plasma burner of layer B is usually used and the plasma burner of layer A is used as a backup. This arrangement has a low utilization rate. Therefore, the plasma burner of layer A and the burner of layer D are interchanged, and the plasma burner of layer D is used for ignition backup. At the same time, the plasma burner of layer D can ensure stable combustion when the upper mill combination is used at low load. Since the original plasma burner of layer A is fixed, the burner part needs to be replaced with a swingable type. The main body utilizes the original electric, water and gas system of layer A.

[0037] By adjusting and modifying the low-load stable combustion, the D-layer burner is replaced with a plasma burner to meet the stable combustion support requirements of the upper coal mill combination under low load, making the selection of low-load coal mill combination more flexible. In the actual ignition application of the ion ignition burner, the plasma generator 3 is first installed in the connecting side pipe 2 at the end of the air duct in an embedded manner. During ignition, the micro motor 11 drives the connecting screw 9 to rotate. Under the guidance of the guide rod 10, the connecting block 12 drives the plasma generator 3 and the ignition tube 4 to move inside the connecting side pipe 2, so that the ignition tube 4 penetrates into the combustion chamber 6 for ignition.

[0038] Coal powder is transported to the combustion chamber 6 via the primary air duct 1. Simultaneously, when the secondary air duct 8 supplies air, the airflow and coal powder are first concentrated in the gas collection chamber 18 and then evenly discharged through the uniformly arranged distribution gas grooves 19. This allows the airflow and coal powder to be effectively and evenly distributed before transportation. Combined with the baffle 20, a separate gas supply channel is formed between the ignition extension pipe 7 and the gas supply sleeve 17. The guide strip 21 keeps the gas and coal powder evenly distributed as they pass through, allowing the airflow and coal powder, after initial equalization, to be orderly guided and transported in the separate channel. The coal powder and airflow can then be discharged and burned through the jet bend pipe 22, ensuring uniformity and sufficient combustion of coal powder.

[0039] After ignition, the plasma generator 3 resets, allowing the ignition tube 4 to engage the mating ring 13 into the mating groove 14. Simultaneously, the refractory cotton ring 15 at the edge of the mating ring 13 makes tight contact with the mating groove 14, thus sealing the connection between the ignition tube 4 and the partition plate 5. This maintains communication between the primary air duct 1 and the combustion chamber 6, facilitating combustion. By designing the plasma generator 3 as a movable structure, it can be used deeply during ignition and effectively stored afterward, preventing the ignition tube 4 from interfering with the normal transport of pulverized coal and avoiding accelerated damage to the ignition tube 4.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model 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 this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
