Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an assembly device for the end cover of a waste heat boiler header, belonging to the technical field of waste heat boiler header end cover assembly devices. Background Technology
[0002] A header is a pipe fitting used in boilers to mix the working fluid and ensure uniform heating. Typically, the furnace walls of industrial boilers are constructed from rows of pipes. However, boilers are large and complex, making it impossible to guarantee that all pipes absorb the same amount of heat; the heat absorption varies significantly between different sections. Installing a header allows the working fluid from each pipe to converge within the header and then distribute it to the next level of pipes. This reduces thermal deviation and optimizes the heat absorption and flow of the working fluid, boiler cooling, and boiler thermal efficiency. The header also connects different sections, ensuring smooth flow of the working fluid. To ensure the header is sealed, the pre-welding alignment directly determines whether the coaxiality of the end cover and the boiler body meets the standards, ultimately determining the quality of the weld. Application number 201620718065.4 discloses a header end cover assembly and positioning device, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 1 As shown, the assembly positioning device includes a connecting body that can be inserted into the header cylinder. The connecting body consists of a frame 3 and a positioning block connected to the frame. The positioning block has a V-shaped groove whose wall can contact the outer wall of the header cylinder. A locking device is connected to the frame to lock the connecting body onto the header cylinder. It can be seen that the above patent uses the positioning block to achieve coaxiality between the end cap and the header cylinder when they are joined. The disadvantage of this device is that, since the end cap is only placed in the V-shaped groove and not locked, it is difficult to ensure that the end cap remains coaxial with the header cylinder during spot welding. This can easily lead to problems such as uneven joints and misaligned bevels, thus affecting the welding quality of the header and the end cap. Summary of the Invention
