Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste heat recovery from rotary kiln calcination, specifically to a waste heat recovery device for rotary kiln calcination of shale ceramsite. Background Technology
[0002] Shale ceramsite is a spherical or elliptical porous lightweight aggregate made primarily of shale, which is crushed and expanded by high-temperature calcination. It has a small particle size and a honeycomb-like pore structure inside. Currently, rotary kilns are used in the pelletizing process of shale ceramsite.
[0003] When a rotary kiln is used for pelletizing, waste gas is generated. Existing waste gas is directly discharged into the air after purification, which wastes the heat it carries. Current technology uses water as a medium for heat exchange to reuse the heat carried by the waste gas. However, after long-term operation, scale will form on the walls of the heat exchange tubes. This scale will affect the heat exchange efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on the above description, this utility model provides a waste heat recovery device for shale ceramsite rotary kiln calcination, in order to solve the problem of scale buildup on the heat exchange tube walls inside existing recovery devices.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a waste heat recovery device for calcination of shale ceramsite rotary kiln, comprising connecting a rotary kiln with a heat exchange device via a pipeline.
[0006] The heat exchange device includes a tank, inside which heat exchange tubes are installed, and on the surface of the heat exchange tubes are cleaning components. The cleaning components include a motor, a threaded rod, a threaded cylinder, and a cleaning plate. One end of the threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, the threaded cylinder is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod, and the cleaning plate is fixedly installed on the surface of the threaded cylinder.
[0007] A discharge assembly is installed on one side of the tank. The discharge assembly includes a discharge cylinder, a discharge tube, and a filter element. One end of the discharge cylinder is installed on the side wall of the tank, one end of the discharge tube is installed on the bottom of the discharge cylinder, and the filter element is installed inside the discharge cylinder.
[0008] Furthermore, the heat exchange device also includes a heat exchange section, an air inlet chamber, and an exhaust chamber disposed inside the tank body. The heat exchange section is located between the air inlet chamber and the exhaust chamber. An air inlet pipe is provided at one end of the air inlet chamber, and an exhaust pipe is provided at one end of the exhaust chamber.
[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.
[0010] Furthermore, the heat exchange section includes a heat exchange tube, a first baffle, and a second baffle. The first baffle and the second baffle are located at both ends of the heat exchange tube, and the heat exchange tube passes through both the first baffle and the second baffle.
[0011] Furthermore, the side of the first baffle closest to the second baffle is designed to be inclined, and the inclination direction is towards one side of the discharge cylinder.
[0012] Furthermore, the cleaning plate is movably sleeved on the surface of the heat exchange tube, and the end of the threaded rod away from the motor is movably connected to one side of the second baffle through a bearing.
[0013] Furthermore, the filter element includes a connecting rod, a filter plate, and a cover plate, with one end of the connecting rod connected to the filter plate and the other end connected to the cover plate.
[0014] Furthermore, the inner wall of the cover plate is provided with a threaded groove, and the cover plate is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the discharge cylinder at the end away from the tank body.
[0015] Furthermore, a water inlet pipe is installed on one side of the tank, and the water inlet pipe and the discharge cylinder are distributed on both sides of the side wall of the tank, while the water inlet pipe and the discharge cylinder are located at both ends of the tank.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0017] 1. This utility model sets a cleaning component on the heat exchange tube and uses a motor in the cleaning component to drive the cleaning plate to move, so that the cleaning plate scrapes the side wall of the heat exchange tube to remove scale on the outer wall of the heat exchange tube. At the same time, the side wall of the cleaning plate contacts the inner wall of the tank, thereby achieving the effect of cleaning the inner wall of the tank.
[0018] 2. By installing a discharge cylinder and a discharge pipe on one side of the tank, water flows through the discharge cylinder and discharges to the outside of the tank. A filter is installed inside the discharge cylinder to filter the water flow and prevent scale from being discharged directly with the water flow. The threaded connection between the cover plate and the discharge cylinder, combined with the vertical design between the discharge cylinder and the discharge pipe, makes it easy to pull out the filter plate by twisting the cover plate, which can quickly disassemble the filter plate and make it easy to clean the scale on the filter plate.

The side wall of the cleaning plate 34 is in contact with the inner wall of the tank 21. When the cleaning plate 34 moves, it also scrapes and cleans the inner wall of the tank 21.
[0032] A discharge assembly 4 is installed on one side of the tank body 21. The discharge assembly 4 includes a discharge cylinder 41, a discharge cylinder 42, and a filter element 43. One end of the discharge cylinder 41 is installed on the side wall of the tank body 21, and one end of the discharge cylinder 42 is installed on the bottom of the discharge cylinder 41. Water inside the tank body 21 is discharged from the discharge cylinder 41 and flows away along the discharge cylinder 42 to remove the heat from the exhaust gas. The filter element 43 is installed inside the discharge cylinder 41. The filter element 43 filters the water after heat exchange to prevent scale from being directly discharged and used with the water flow.
[0033] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3The heat exchange device 2 in this embodiment also includes a heat exchange section 22, an air inlet chamber 23 and an exhaust chamber 24 disposed inside the tank body 21. The heat exchange section 22 is located between the air inlet chamber 23 and the exhaust chamber 24. An air inlet pipe 5 is provided at one end of the air inlet chamber 23 and an exhaust pipe 6 is provided at one end of the exhaust chamber 24.
[0034] The exhaust gas enters through the intake pipe 5, flows through the intake chamber 23 into the heat exchange pipe 221, then flows through the heat exchange pipe 221 into the exhaust chamber 24, and finally flows from the exhaust chamber 24 into the exhaust pipe 6 for discharge.
[0035] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the heat exchange section 22 includes a heat exchange tube 221, a first baffle 222 and a second baffle 223. The first baffle 222 and the second baffle 223 are located at both ends of the heat exchange tube 221, and the heat exchange tube 221 passes through the first baffle 222 and the second baffle 223.
[0036] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the side of the first baffle 222 near the second baffle 223 is designed to be inclined, and the inclined direction is towards one side of the discharge cylinder 41. The inclined design makes it convenient for water to flow into the discharge cylinder 41 automatically.
[0037] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the cleaning plate 34 is movably sleeved on the surface of the heat exchange tube 221, and the end of the threaded rod 32 away from the motor 31 is movably connected to the side of the second baffle 223 through a bearing.
[0038] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The filter element 43 in this embodiment includes a connecting rod 431, a filter plate 432 and a cover plate 433. One end of the connecting rod 431 is connected to the filter plate 432 and the other end is connected to the cover plate 433.

The valves are used to control the water inlet and outlet of the water inlet pipe 7 and the storage cylinder. When necessary, the valves on both are closed to ensure that the water can have more time to contact and exchange heat with the heat exchange tube 221.
