[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following is a summary description. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 The present invention will be further described in detail with reference to embodiments. However, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of the present invention.

[0034] This embodiment discloses a biomass mold temperature controller, which uses biomass fuel, has better cost advantages, and also has better heat exchange efficiency.

[0035] refer to Figures 1 to 5 The preferred embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below. Specifically, it includes a combustion chamber 100 and a preheating chamber 200 connected end to end, both having an insulation layer 103 (which can be insulation bricks and / or insulation cotton in practice). The fuel is burned in the combustion chamber 100 and exchanges heat with the medium. The high-temperature flue gas can then enter the preheating chamber 200 to preheat the medium. This path is the flue gas flow path.

[0036] The combustion chamber 100 is equipped with a fuel loading port 104, a grate 106, and a furnace door 105. An auger feed hopper 300 is installed on the fuel loading port 104, allowing for precise and metered fuel delivery to control the fire intensity. During fuel delivery, outside air can enter the combustion chamber 100 through the fuel loading port 104 and / or the furnace door 105 to aid combustion.

[0037] In addition, to facilitate air supply, an air supply component 302 can be installed at the end of the screw conveyor hopper. This not only enables precise quantitative loading of fuel but also provides efficient air supply, resulting in higher combustion efficiency and controllable combustion intensity. The high-temperature flue gas after combustion can ultimately be discharged from the end of the preheating chamber 200 through the flue gas outlet pipe 107.

[0038] Of course, an air preheating structure 400 can also be installed on the flue gas pipe 107, which includes several in-line preheating tubes 401 placed inside the flue gas pipe 107. Fresh outside air exchanges heat with the flue gas pipe 107 in the in-line preheating tubes 401 (which can also be in the form of S-shaped tubes or serpentine tubes, etc.), further improving heat exchange efficiency and making full use of the exhaust gas heat energy. The fresh air in the preheating tubes 401 can be efficiently delivered into the combustion chamber 100 through a pipe with an air supply component. Specifically, the delivery location can be below the grate 106 or towards the middle of the combustion chamber 100, to further improve combustion efficiency and ensure the complete combustion of biomass fuel.

[0039] In this invention, the combustion chamber 100 has a medium heat exchange structure on its inner peripheral wall and inner top wall, forming a cage-like structure to enclose the heat and fully utilize the high temperature generated by combustion. The medium inside is heat transfer oil. The end of the medium heat exchange structure is connected to the oil outlet manifold 102. The preheating chamber 200 has a medium preheating structure whose end is connected in series with the front end of the medium heat exchange structure. The front end of the medium preheating structure is connected to at least one oil inlet manifold 101 equipped with a pump station 109.

[0040] The general path of the heat transfer oil is as follows:

[0041] The heat transfer oil first enters the preheating structure in the preheating chamber 200 through the oil inlet manifold 101 for preheating, then enters the heat exchange structure in series for sufficient heat exchange, and finally exits through the oil outlet manifold 102. Alternatively, the heat transfer oil can pass through the oil-gas separator 108 before entering the chamber to allow for the removal of gas.

[0042] The exhaust gas will first enter the dust collector 5, where gravity dust removal is carried out through multiple bends, and then the exhaust gas will be discharged from the chimney 7 by the induced draft fan 6.

[0043] To further improve heat exchange efficiency, the medium heat exchange structure includes several parallel heat exchange branch pipes 110 (in practice, four parallel heat exchange branch pipes 110 are used). The heat exchange branch pipes 110 are arranged on the inner peripheral wall and the inner top wall of the combustion chamber 100, wherein the inner peripheral wall is arranged in a spiral and the inner top wall is arranged in parallel, which can form a cage structure to fully enclose the heat.

[0044] Furthermore, the adjacent heat exchange branch pipes 110 are fitted together seamlessly and fixedly connected, making it difficult for high-temperature flue gas to convection through gaps and minimizing heat loss. The ends of several heat exchange branch pipes 110 are connected to the oil outlet manifold 102, which mixes the media in different parallel paths evenly before centralized output, maintaining a stable temperature.

[0045] In this embodiment, at least one of the heat exchange branch pipes 110 is arranged in a spiral pattern in the vertical direction within the combustion chamber 100, near the outer flame (of course, it can also be arranged in an S-shape, serpentine shape, or staggered straight pipe arrangement). That is, at least one heat exchange branch pipe 110 is arranged near the outer flame. In practice, four heat exchange branch pipes 110 are arranged spirally, with each pair of heat exchange branch pipes 110 forming a group, and the two groups arranged in a left-right direction (e.g., ...). Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, it can fully absorb the heat of the outer flame.

[0046] In this embodiment, the medium preheating structure also includes several preheating branch pipes 210 connected in parallel. The diameter of these branch pipes can be shorter than the diameter of the heat exchange branch pipes 110. These preheating branch pipes 210 are arranged in at least one of the following configurations: tubular, U-shaped, serpentine, S-shaped, or spiral. They exchange heat with the high-temperature flue gas in the preheating chamber to initially indicate the temperature of the heat transfer oil. When the preheating branch pipes 210 flow into the heat exchange branch pipes 110, the flow can be first collected through a main pipe before entering each heat exchange branch pipe 110. This allows multiple streams of heat transfer oil to be collected first, their temperatures to be balanced, and then diverted again, further improving heat exchange efficiency.

[0047] To better utilize the high-temperature flue gas, the preheating chamber 200 is divided into at least two interconnected chambers by a partition 201. Each chamber forms an S-shaped channel, utilizing multiple deflections to improve the preheating effect of the heat transfer oil. Of course, a cleaning door 202 can be installed at the bottom of the preheating chamber 200 for timely cleaning and maintenance.

[0048] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0049] This invention uses biomass pellets as fuel, which significantly reduces costs and eliminates the need for conventional gas pipelines, saving considerable expenses.

[0050] The heat exchange structure includes several heat exchange branches, which are arranged not only around and at the top of the combustion chamber but also near the outer flame. Their spiral arrangement forms a capillary-like heat exchange structure, significantly improving heat exchange efficiency. Furthermore, the heat exchange medium is preheated by the exhaust gases in the preheating chamber before entering, ensuring stable and efficient heat exchange.

[0051] This invention employs a structure of overall series connection and partial parallel connection to improve the heat exchange efficiency of the medium. In the high-temperature zone of the combustion chamber, multiple parallel connections are used to fully absorb heat. The medium is then mixed and heated evenly through a collection pipe before being centrally output, ensuring that the temperature of the medium is stable and reliable.

[0052] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
