Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of granulation technology, and in particular to a fly ash granulator. Background Technology

[0002] A fly ash granulator is a device used to process fly ash into granular materials. Its core purpose is to improve the physical properties of fly ash through physical or chemical methods, facilitating subsequent resource utilization or safe disposal. One of the core components of a fly ash granulator is the extrusion screw, whose design directly affects granulation efficiency, particle uniformity, and equipment stability.

[0003] However, when the fly ash granulator compresses fine powder into granules, the end of the extrusion screw is subjected to increased load during the compression of the fine powder, which can easily cause vibration. This may have a negative impact on the stability of the fly ash granulator and the quality of the granules. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of the embodiments of this utility model and to briefly introduce some preferred embodiments. Some simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of this section, the abstract and the title of this utility model. Such simplifications or omissions shall not be used to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution;

[0007] The fly ash granulator uses an extrusion screw, including a drive shaft that drives the extrusion screw.

[0008] It also includes an intermediate shaft connected to the drive shaft, and a spiral structure is provided on the outside of the intermediate shaft;

[0009] One end of the intermediate shaft that connects to the drive shaft is designated as the connecting end, and the other end is designated as the extending end. The axial distance of the spiral structure gradually decreases from the connecting end to the extending end.

[0013] The above design, firstly, by setting a channel through the intermediate shaft, can significantly reduce the weight of the extrusion screw, thereby reducing the burden on the fly ash granulator supporting the extrusion screw and improving the operational stability of the fly ash granulator; secondly, by setting a stabilizing shaft, which is fixed to the discharge pressure plate of the fly ash granulator by bearings, and using an end cover to support the extended end of the intermediate shaft, and connecting the intermediate shaft and the stabilizing shaft to the drive shaft, the two ends of the intermediate shaft can be supported, improving the operational stability of the intermediate shaft, reducing vibration, ensuring the long-term operational stability of the fly ash granulator, and improving the quality of the granules.

[0014] Preferably, the end cap includes a metal outer ring structure and a metal-based composite rubber inner liner structure, with the inner liner structure embedded in the center of the outer ring structure.
