However, this method has low cooling efficiency and cannot completely cover the clinker at the top of the layer, resulting in uneven cooling and the "red river" phenomenon. The "red river" phenomenon refers to the phenomenon where localized high-temperature clinker remains uncooled when the clinker is unevenly distributed, reducing the grindability of the cement.

[0049] Example
[0050] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 9 A high-efficiency heat exchange grate cooler includes a grate plate 2 for moving clinker;
[0051] A grate bed 1 is located at the bottom of a grate plate 2 and is used to support the grate plate 2.
[0052] Several hydraulic transmission devices 3 are installed at the bottom of the grate bed 1 to control the movement of the grate plate 2;
[0053] Several grate support devices 4 are arranged between two adjacent hydraulic transmission devices 3 to support the grate 1;
[0054] The upper outer shell 5 is located on top of the grate plate 2 and is used to guide the flow of hot air;
[0055] Cooling fan unit 6 is located on one side of the grate bed 1; it is used to provide cooling air to cool the clinker.
[0056] Several protective plates 7 are set on both sides of the bottom of the grate bed 1 to cover the hydraulic transmission device 3 and the grate bed support device 4 at the bottom of the grate bed 1.
[0057] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the grate 1 includes a support plate 101, a ventilation hole 102 is provided on the support plate 101, baffles 103 are fixed on both sides of the support plate 101, and a clinker guide slope 104 is provided at the rear end of the support plate 101 to allow the clinker to move more evenly onto the grate 2 through the inclined surface.
[0058] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 10 As shown, the top of the grate 2 is equipped with three cooling enhancement devices 8 to enhance the cooling efficiency of the clinker.
[0059] Furthermore, such as 3, Figure 5 and Figure 10 As shown, the three cooling enhancement devices 8 include three nozzle plates 801. Each of the three nozzle plates 801 has a first air inlet 802 on the same side. Each of the three nozzle plates 801 has multiple second ventilation holes 803. Several first hydraulic rods 806 are provided at the lower ends of both sides of the three nozzle plates 801. The two ends of the several first hydraulic rods 806 are fixedly connected to the nozzle plates 801 and both sides respectively, and are used to retract the extension end of the first hydraulic rods 806 to drive the nozzles 801 to press against the clinker.
[0060] Furthermore, such as 3, Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 10 As shown, multiple cooling pipes 804 extend longitudinally from the No. 1 air inlet 802 into the nozzle plate 801. Multiple nozzles 805 are fixedly installed through the nozzle plate 801. After the nozzle plate presses against the clinker, the nozzles 805 insert into the clinker layer and spray cooling air to cool the clinker evenly.
[0061] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7As shown, a base plate 105 is provided below the support plate 101. The base plate 105 is fixedly connected to the baffle 103. A second cavity 106 is formed between the base plate 105, the baffle 103, and the support plate 101. Three second air inlets 107 are provided on the baffle 103 on the same side as the first air inlet 802. Cooling air enters the cavity 106 from the second air inlets 107 and is then blown out from the first ventilation hole 102.
[0062] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the hydraulic transmission device 3 includes a second hydraulic rod 301 fixedly connected to the base plate 105. The telescopic end of the second hydraulic rod 301 is fixedly connected to a fixed column 302. Movable grooves 303 are provided on both the base plate 105 and the support plate 101. The top end of the fixed column 302 passes through the movable grooves 303 on the base plate 105 and the support plate 101 and is fixedly connected to the grate plate 2. The second hydraulic rod 301 telescopically drives the fixed column 302 to move back and forth, thereby moving the grate plate 2 back and forth and driving the clinker to move.
[0063] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the grate support device 4 includes a support column 401. A third hydraulic rod 402 is fixedly connected to the top of the support column 401. A pad 403 is fixedly connected to the top of the telescopic end of the third hydraulic rod 402. The pad 403 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base plate 105 and is used to support the grate 1 through the third hydraulic rod 402.
[0064] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the cooling fan unit 6 includes a cooler 602. A duct 601 is connected to one side of the cooler 602. One end of the duct 601 is connected to two cold air outlets 603. The two cold air outlets 603 are respectively connected to the first air inlet 802 and the second air inlet 107, so that the cooler 602 generates cooling air which is blown into the duct 601 and blown into the first air inlet 802 and the second air inlet 107 through the two cold air outlets 603, and then into the cooling pipe 804 and the cavity 106.
[0065] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, an air outlet 501 is provided on one side of the upper outer shell 5. An exhaust fan is fixedly connected inside the air outlet 501, which is used to draw out hot air through the air outlet 501 and discharge it.
[0066] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the front end of the grate 1 is equipped with a clinker crusher 9, which is used to receive the clinker moving from the grate 2 and crush and transport it away.
[0067] The usage process of the high-efficiency heat exchange grate cooler provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0068] Clinker is poured into clinker guide slope 104, where it rolls onto grate plate 2. The grate plate 2 moves back and forth via the extension and retraction of hydraulic rod 301. As the grate plate 2 moves forward, it pulls the clinker forward as well. Cooling air unit 6 continuously generates cooling air, which is then diverted through duct 601 and two cold air outlets 603, entering cooling pipe 804 and cavity 106 respectively. Cooling air from inside cooling pipe 804 is ejected from 805, and cooling air from inside cavity 106 is ejected upwards from ventilation hole 102, cooling the clinker. As grate plate 2 moves backward, clinker continues to roll down from clinker guide slope 104. The clinker blocks the clinker from rolling down, preventing it from moving backward. As the clinker moves forward, the second hydraulic rod 301 retracts, causing the nozzle plate 801 to press down, so that the nozzle 805 is inserted into the clinker layer, spraying out cooling air to further cool the clinker. The hot air generated by the cooling is drawn into the air outlet through the exhaust fan in the air outlet 501, driving the airflow. The air outlets 501 located at the rear and middle are connected to the boiler, and the hot air is used to reheat the boiler. The air outlet at the front is connected to the thermal power generation equipment for power generation. The cooled clinker continues to be carried out by the back and forth movement of the grate plate 2 and fed into the clinker crusher 9 for crushing, and then carried out by the transmission belt at the bottom of the clinker crusher 9.
