A limit block 10 is fixedly connected to the other side of the spring 9. A connecting rod 11 is fixedly connected to the side of the limit block 10 that is far apart from each other. The other end of the connecting rod 11 passes through and extends out of the surface of the connecting block 8. The connecting blocks 8 are slidably connected to the surface of the connecting rod 11. A receiving groove 13 is opened on the left and right sides of the front surface of the intake pipe 2. A limit plate 14 is placed inside the receiving groove 13. The limit plate 14 is slidably connected to the inside of the receiving groove 13. A guide groove 15 is opened on the front side of the limit plate 14. The guide groove 15 is at a certain angle. The ends of the connecting rods 11 that are far apart from each other are slidably connected to the inside of the guide groove 15.
[0024] By adopting the above solution, the filter plate 7 can be quickly locked and released by setting the spring 9, the limiting block 10 and the limiting plate 14, which significantly improves the convenience of filter plate 7 replacement and work efficiency.
[0025] refer to Figure 3The top of the limiting plate 14 is fixedly connected to a straight rod 16, which passes through and extends out of the top of the air intake pipe 2. A pressing rod 17 is placed on the top of the straight rod 16, and the left and right sides of the bottom of the pressing rod 17 are fixedly connected to the top of the straight rod 16.
[0026] By adopting the above solution, the movement of the limit plate 14 can be easily controlled manually by setting the pressing rod 17, thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly of the filter plate 7 and improving the convenience and efficiency of equipment maintenance.
[0027] refer to Figure 3 Two stabilizing grooves 18 are provided on the left and right sides of the front surface of the intake pipe 2. The positions of the stabilizing grooves 18 correspond to the positions of the limiting blocks 10. The rear side of the limiting blocks 10 is slidably connected to the inside of the stabilizing grooves 18.
[0028] By adopting the above solution, by setting the stabilizing groove 18, the precise positioning and stability of the limiting block 10 during sliding can be ensured, thereby enhancing the reliability of the filter plate 7 locking and preventing accidental loosening due to vibration or other external forces.
[0029] refer to Figure 4 A mounting bracket 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the intake pipe 2. A compression spring 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting bracket 19. A top block 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the compression spring 20. A top rod 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the top block 21. The top of the top rod 22 passes through and extends out of the top of the mounting bracket 19. A mounting plate 23 is fixedly connected to the right side of the bottom of the mounting bracket 19. A motor 24 is fixedly connected to the right side of the mounting plate 23. A rotating rod 25 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 24.

The cam 26 and the top block 21 cooperate with each other.
[0030] The above solution, by setting cam 26 and top block 21, can periodically strike the bottom of air intake pipe 2, causing dust and particulate matter adhering to the surface of filter plate 7 to fall off, realizing automatic cleaning function, significantly improving filtration efficiency and reducing manual maintenance needs.
[0031] refer to Figure 4 The mounting plate 23 has a groove 27 on its left side, and the top block 21 is slidably connected to the inside of the groove 27 on its right side.
[0032] By adopting the above solution, the top block 21 can be guided to move vertically in a stable manner by setting the slide 27, thus ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the cleaning mechanism.
[0033] refer to Figure 2 The bottom of the air inlet pipe 2 is fixedly connected to a dust collection hopper 28, the position of the dust collection hopper 28 corresponds to the position of the filter plate 7, and the bottom of the dust collection hopper 28 is slidably connected to a dust collection box 29.
[0034] By adopting the above solution, by setting up the dust collection hopper 28 and the dust collection box 29, the dust and particulate matter falling off the filter plate 7 can be effectively collected and centrally processed, keeping the equipment clean.
[0035] The working principle of this utility model:
[0036] When using the equipment, first place it in a suitable working position and ensure that the support leg 4 is stable. Then connect the air inlet pipe 2 and the exhaust pipe 3 to the corresponding system pipes. After the equipment has been used for a period of time, some particles will adhere to the filter plate 7. At this time, use the control panel 5 to start the motor 24. The motor 24 drives the cam 26 to rotate through the rotating rod 25. The cam 26 drives the top block 21 to reciprocate along the slide groove 27, thereby driving the top rod 22 to hit the bottom of the air inlet pipe 2 back and forth, thereby generating vibration and causing the dust and particles adhering to the surface of the filter plate 7 to fall off. Then the dust and particles will fall into the dust collection box 29 through the dust collection hopper 28 for subsequent cleaning of the dust collection box 29. 9. When it is necessary to clean or replace the filter plate 7, simply press down the pressing rod 17 to move the limiting plates 14 on both sides downward along the receiving groove 13. Since the connecting rod 11 is slidably connected to the inside of the guide groove 15, the connecting rod 11 will move away from each other as the limiting plates 14 descend. Then the connecting rod 11 will move the limiting block 10 along the stabilizing groove 18. After the limiting block 10 moves away from the front of the mounting groove 6, the filter plate 7 can be removed for cleaning or replacement. After cleaning, the filter plate 7 is installed into the mounting groove 6. Then release the pressing rod 17. The spring 9 will cause the limiting block 10 to quickly return to its original position, thereby fixing the filter plate 7.
[0037] In summary, this waste heat recovery box for thermal energy engineering, through the coordinated use of the following components—box body 1, air inlet pipe 2, exhaust pipe 3, support legs 4, control panel 5, mounting groove 6, filter plate 7, connecting block 8, spring 9, limit block 10, connecting rod 11, receiving groove 13, limit plate 14, guide groove 15, straight rod 16, pressing rod 17, stabilizing groove 18, mounting frame 19, compression spring 20, top block 21, top rod 22, mounting plate 23, motor 24, rotating rod 25, cam 26, sliding groove 27, ash hopper 28, and ash collection box 29—solves the problem that existing equipment often lacks an automatic cleaning and convenient filter plate replacement mechanism, leading to complex maintenance, low cleaning efficiency, poor operational stability, increased difficulty and time cost of manual periodic filter plate cleaning, and difficulty in ensuring thorough and effective cleaning each time, thus affecting the long-term stable operation of the equipment.
