Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cement kiln cleaning devices, and in particular to a mechanical gripper, a mechanical arm, and a cement kiln preheater unblocking system. Background Technology

[0002] In the new dry-process cement production line, the flue is a crucial piece of equipment connecting the rotary kiln and the precalciner. Hot flue gas from the rotary kiln enters the precalciner through the flue, while high-temperature raw meal from the lowest-level preheater is fed into the rotary kiln through the flue. The section at the bottom of the flue where it meets the rotary kiln is called the feeding ramp. Because the new dry-process cement production line uses preheating and pre-decomposition technology, the temperature of the preheated and pre-decomposed raw meal generally reaches 850–900℃. When the hot raw meal enters the flue, it encounters the kiln-exit flue gas, which is above 1000℃. Furthermore, the raw materials contain harmful elements such as potassium, sodium, sulfur, and chlorine. These elements accumulate in the rotary kiln and kiln tail system, lowering the melting point of the hot raw meal and making it prone to premature liquid phase formation and crusting. Crust formation easily leads to material accumulation and collapse, affecting system ventilation, reducing combustion efficiency, and in severe cases, causing blockages and disrupting the continuous operation of the production line. The material feeding slope at the kiln tail flue is the most difficult to clean. Once a crust forms, the material tends to accumulate and must be cleaned thoroughly each time, otherwise it is prone to sintering and extremely difficult to clean. In addition, the temperature here is high, which can easily cause safety accidents.

[0003] Currently, the main methods for cleaning the crust on the feed slope of the kiln tail flue are:

[0004] 1. Use an air cannon: Air cannons are more effective at clearing blockages, but less effective at clearing crusts;

[0005] 2. Manual cleaning: Manual cleaning requires tools such as steel bars and sledgehammers, which involves high labor intensity and is highly dangerous.

[0006] 3. Use a high-pressure water gun: When the crusting is severe, it is necessary to stop the material flow and use a high-pressure water gun to clean it. The above-mentioned manual cleaning method and high-pressure water gun cleaning method can thoroughly clean the crusting on the material discharge slope. However, since the material temperature and air temperature here are usually several hundred degrees, and the probability of positive pressure spraying outward after blockage is very high, manually clearing the blockage with a steel bar or high-pressure water gun is a very dangerous task.

[0039] This application is described in detail below. Examples of embodiments of this application are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar components or components having the same or similar functions throughout. Furthermore, detailed descriptions of known technologies that are unnecessary for the features of this application are omitted. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0040] Those skilled in the art will understand that, unless specifically stated otherwise, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” used herein may also include the plural forms. It should be further understood that the term “comprising” as used in the specification of this application means the presence of the stated features, elements, and / or components, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components, and / or groups thereof. The term “and / or” as used herein includes all or any units and all combinations thereof of one or more associated listed items.

[0041] First, let me introduce and explain the terms used in this application:

[0042] A pressure transmitter is a device that converts pressure into pneumatic or electrical signals for control and remote transmission. It transforms the physical pressure parameters of gases, liquids, etc., sensed by pressure sensors into standard electrical signals, which are then supplied to secondary instruments such as indicators, alarms, recorders, and controllers for measurement, indication, and process regulation.

The first motor 32 is fixed to the top of the first support plate 11. The connecting seat 33 is fixed to the top of the second support plate 21. The guide shaft 31 connects the first motor 32 and the connecting seat 33. The connecting seat 33 has a through-hole structure through which the guide shaft 31 passes, thus achieving a fixed connection between the connecting seat 33 and the guide shaft 31. The first motor 32 drives the guide shaft 31 to move along the designed direction, thereby causing the connecting seat 33 to move synchronously, so that the first support plate 11 and the second support plate 21 move relatively away from or closer to each other, thereby allowing the first clamping member 12 and the second clamping member 22 to move relatively closer to each other, thus clamping the water gun 200, or moving relatively away to release the water gun 200.

[0066] Based on the aforementioned embodiments, in this embodiment, the water source is a water tank. The water gun 200 is a high-pressure water gun 200, which has at least a hose section to allow for multi-angle adjustment.
