Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of petroleum catalytic cracking technology, specifically relating to a ceramic nozzle. Background Technology
[0002] Petroleum cracking is a crucial step in processing crude oil into various refined petroleum products. Specifically, it involves cracking large-molecule crude oil into smaller-molecule refined petroleum products. The cracking process is primarily accomplished through heating and catalysis, making catalysts essential components. However, the catalysts currently injected into the cracking unit via nozzles are mostly metal nozzles. These nozzles have poor wear resistance, are easily worn, and have a short lifespan, requiring frequent replacements. This places an additional workload on operators and increases unnecessary maintenance costs. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a ceramic nozzle with better wear resistance and a longer service life. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Reference Figures 1-4 A ceramic nozzle includes a ceramic inner tube 1 and a metal sleeve 2 sleeved outside the ceramic inner tube 1. The diameter of the upper inner hole of the ceramic inner tube 1 is larger than the diameter of the lower inner hole. The upper inner hole and the lower inner hole are connected through a frustum-shaped hole. An upper clamping platform 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the ceramic inner tube 1 inside the metal sleeve 2, and a lower clamping platform 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ceramic inner tube 1 inside the metal sleeve 2. The upper clamping platform 4 and the lower clamping platform 5 are used to limit and fix the ceramic inner tube 1. A limiting insertion hole is opened on the side wall of the metal sleeve 2, and a limiting slot 7 is opened on the outer wall of the ceramic inner tube 1 at the position corresponding to the limiting insertion hole. A metal insert 6 is installed in the limiting insertion hole and the limiting slot 7.
[0022] The metal sleeve 2 has a ceramic inner tube 1 fixed inside. The ceramic inner tube 1 has better wear resistance, resulting in a longer service life and reducing the need for frequent replacement, thus lowering maintenance costs. After the metal insert 6 is inserted into the aligned limiting slot 7 and limiting hole, the metal sleeve 2 and the ceramic inner tube 1 can be limited and fixed.
[0023] In this embodiment, the limiting slot 7 is opened at the lower part of the ceramic inner tube 1, corresponding to the lower end inner hole, so that the limiting slot 7 and the inner hole of the ceramic inner tube 1 are reserved with sufficient side wall thickness.
[0024] In this embodiment, both the upper clamping platform 4 and the lower clamping platform 5 are annular. The diameter of the through hole at the center of the upper clamping platform 4 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the upper inner hole of the ceramic inner tube 1, and the diameter of the through hole at the center of the lower clamping platform 5 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the lower inner hole of the ceramic inner tube 1, thereby ensuring that the upper clamping platform 4 and the lower clamping platform 5 will not obstruct the passage of the catalyst in the ceramic inner tube 1.
[0025] In this embodiment, structural adhesive 3 is filled between the outer wall of the ceramic inner tube 1 and the inner wall of the metal sleeve 2, between the upper end face of the ceramic inner tube 1 and the bottom face of the upper mounting platform 4, and between the lower end face of the ceramic inner tube 1 and the top face of the lower mounting platform 5, so as to further fix the ceramic inner tube 1 and improve the stability of the ceramic inner tube 1.
[0026] In this embodiment, both the upper clamping platform 4 and the lower clamping platform 5 are welded inside the metal sleeve 2. A 45° welding bevel is provided between the outer top end of the upper clamping platform 4 and the inner wall of the metal sleeve 2, and a 45° welding bevel is provided between the outer bottom end of the lower clamping platform 5 and the inner wall of the metal sleeve 2, so as to ensure the strength of the weld.
[0027] In this embodiment, the side of the metal insert 6 closest to the limiting slot 7 is straight, while the side furthest from the limiting slot 7 is an arc-shaped structure that matches the outer wall of the metal sleeve 2, thereby ensuring that the insertion of the metal insert 6 will not affect the shape of the metal sleeve 2.
[0028] In this embodiment, the metal insert 6 is fixed to the limiting insertion hole by welding.
[0029] In this embodiment, a 45° welding bevel is provided between the lower surface of the metal insert 6 and the lower sidewall of the limiting insertion hole, and between the upper surface of the metal insert 6 and the upper sidewall of the limiting insertion hole, thereby ensuring the strength of the weld.
[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
