Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grate cooler technology, specifically to a camera mounting structure for a grate cooler. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production fields such as cement and building materials, grate coolers are key cooling equipment that undertake the cooling of high-temperature clinker. Their operating status directly affects production efficiency and product quality. In order to achieve real-time monitoring of the internal working conditions of the grate cooler and ensure stable operation of the equipment, cameras are usually installed on the grate cooler.
[0003] However, existing camera installation structures often lack targeted high-temperature protection designs. Cameras are directly or indirectly exposed to the high-temperature environment emitted by the grate cooler. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can cause the performance of internal electronic components to degrade, and the lens to fog up or deform. This not only affects the clarity and stability of the monitored image, but also significantly shortens the lifespan of the camera, increases the frequency of equipment replacement and maintenance costs, and has an adverse impact on the continuity and economy of industrial production. Utility Model Content
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a camera mounting structure for a grate cooler, comprising a middle cylinder, a front tube, a rear cylinder, and a camera body. The front tube is fixedly connected to the front end of the middle cylinder, and the rear cylinder is threadedly connected to the rear end of the middle cylinder. The camera body is disposed inside the rear cylinder. A heat-insulating glass is installed at the front end of the middle cylinder. A locking plate for fixing the camera body is provided on the rear cylinder. An air inlet is provided at the bottom of the middle cylinder that can be connected to an external air intake device, and an air outlet is provided at the top that is staggered with the air inlet.
[0005] Furthermore, the bottom of the middle cylinder is fixed with a lower conical tube that houses the air intake mask inside.
[0006] Furthermore, an upper conical tube is provided in the air outlet of the middle cylinder, a plug ball is placed inside the upper conical tube to block the bottom hole, and a cross plate is fixed above the plug ball.
[0007] Furthermore, a mounting block is threaded into the air outlet of the middle cylinder, and a hole is opened on the mounting block. The upper conical tube is fixed on the mounting block and covers the hole.
[0008] Furthermore, a heat insulation sleeve is fitted on the outer side of the front tube.
[0009] Furthermore, the inner side of the rear cylinder is provided with a mounting groove, and a rubber ring is fixed to the side of the mounting groove. A top block that abuts against the camera body is fixed to the inward side of the locking plate.
[0010] Furthermore, multiple handles are fixed to the outer side of the rear cylinder.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The camera mounting structure of this grate cooler effectively blocks high-temperature radiation and heat conduction from the grate cooler through the heat-insulating glass in the middle cylinder and the heat-insulating sleeve of the front tube. At the same time, the air inlet and outlet of the middle cylinder, together with the external air intake device, form a cooling airflow channel to continuously remove internal heat and avoid the impact of high temperature on the camera body. The ball plug in the upper cone tube blocks the air outlet when not in the air intake state, which can prevent external dust from entering. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Please see Figure 1-2 The camera mounting structure of a grate cooler in this embodiment includes a middle cylinder 1, an integrally formed front tube 2 fixed at the front end of the middle cylinder 1, and a rear cylinder 3 threadedly connected at the rear end. A camera body 4 is installed in the rear cylinder 3. The heat insulation glass 9 installed at the front end of the inner side of the middle cylinder 1 can block high temperature without affecting the monitoring field of the camera body 4. The heat insulation sleeve 8 sleeved on the outer side of the front tube 2 further enhances the heat insulation effect.
[0018] Among them, a pair of handles 6 are fixed on the outside of the rear cylinder 3 to facilitate the operator to rotate and load and unload the rear cylinder 3. The rear end of the rear cylinder 3 has a mounting groove. The camera body 4 is placed in the mounting groove inside the rear cylinder 3. A rubber ring 7 is placed on the side of the mounting groove to achieve sealing and shock absorption. A top block 15 is fixed on the inward side of the locking plate 5. The top block 15 abuts against the camera body 4 and is stably fixed with the rubber ring.
[0019] In addition, the bottom and top of the middle cylinder 1 are staggered with air inlets and outlets, and the bottom is also fixed with a lower conical pipe 10 that covers the air inlet. The lower conical pipe 10 is connected to an external air inlet device, and the lower conical pipe 10 facilitates the insertion of an external air inlet pipe. The top is fixed with an upper conical pipe 11 that covers the air outlet. During operation, the external cooling airflow enters the middle cylinder through the lower conical pipe, carries away the internal heat, and is discharged from the upper conical pipe, thus achieving a heat dissipation function.
[0020] To further explain, a plug ball 13 is placed inside the upper conical tube 11 to block the bottom opening, and a cross plate 12 is fixed on the inner side above the plug ball 13. When air enters the lower conical tube, the gas will push the plug ball upward. The cross plate acts as a limit to prevent the plug ball from being pushed out. When the air intake stops, the plug ball falls back under the action of gravity, sealing the bottom hole of the upper conical tube and preventing dust from entering.
[0021] In further explanation, a mounting block 14 is threadedly connected to the air outlet of the middle cylinder 1. The mounting block 14 has a hole that communicates with the middle cylinder 1. The upper conical tube 11 is fixed to the mounting block 14 and covers the hole inside. Because the mounting block is threadedly connected to the air outlet, the upper conical tube can be easily disassembled and replaced.
