Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of venting torches, and more particularly to a lifting and ignition device for a venting torch. Background Technology

[0002] The lifting and ignition device of the flare stack is an automated ignition device, mainly used to ignite and maintain the flame on the top of the flare stack or the high-altitude igniter to ensure the safe combustion of combustible waste gas generated during the production process under controlled conditions. This device is widely used in many industries such as oil fields, gas fields, coking, and petrochemicals, aiming to reduce environmental pollution and ensure the safety of the production site.

[0003] The existing lifting and ignition devices for flare torches do not have a windproof structure during use. The ignition position is usually located at a high altitude, where the wind is often strong. Without a windproof cover, it will affect the normal ignition and lead to a decrease in the ignition success rate.

[0004] Therefore, to address the issue that existing flare lifting and ignition devices lack windproof structures and that the ignition position is typically at a high altitude where strong winds can affect normal ignition, a new flare lifting and ignition device can be designed. This device would incorporate a first drive motor, whose output would rotate a gear during operation. The rotating gear would then move a meshing rack up and down, causing the windproof cover to move synchronously. This movement of the windproof cover would cause a positioning slider to slide within a positioning groove, which would restrict the sliding direction of the slider, thus improving the stability of the windproof cover during lifting and lowering. This would allow the windproof cover to be raised during ignition, preventing excessive winds at high altitudes from affecting normal ignition. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the problem that the existing flare torch lifting and ignition device does not have a windproof structure during use, and the ignition position is usually located at a high altitude, where the wind is often strong, which will affect the normal ignition.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a lifting and ignition device for an venting torch, including a base; it also includes a positioning groove, a windproof cover, a positioning slider, a rack, a mounting plate, a first drive motor, and a gear. Multiple fixed tubes are installed on the upper surface of the base. Multiple gas distribution pipes are arranged circumferentially on the upper surface of the top fixed tube. Two symmetrical positioning grooves are opened on the outer side of the top fixed tube. A windproof cover is slidably connected to the outer surface of the top fixed tube. A positioning slider is installed on the inner surface of the windproof cover corresponding to the position of the positioning groove. The positioning slider is slidably connected to the positioning groove. A rack is installed on the right side of the outer surface of the windproof cover. A mounting plate is provided on the side surface of the fixed tube. A first drive motor is installed on the upper surface of the mounting plate. A gear is connected to the output end of the first drive motor, and the gear meshes with the rack.

[0007] Preferably, by setting a first drive motor, its output end will drive the gear to rotate during operation. When the gear rotates, it can drive the rack meshing with it to move up and down, thereby driving the wind shield to move synchronously. When the wind shield moves, it can drive the positioning slider to slide inside the positioning groove. The positioning groove can restrict the sliding direction of the positioning slider, thereby improving the stability of the wind shield during lifting and lowering. In this way, the wind shield can be raised during ignition to avoid the wind force at high altitudes affecting normal ignition. This solves the problem that the existing lifting and ignition device of the flare torch does not have a windproof structure when in use, and the ignition position is usually located at high altitudes where the wind force is often strong, which affects normal ignition.

[0008] Preferably, one end of a plurality of support rods is installed on the upper part of the inner surface of the top fixing tube, and a mounting plate is installed on the other end of the support rods. A second drive motor is provided on the upper surface of the base. The output end of the second drive motor is connected to a screw. The top of the screw is rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting plate. A movable seat is threaded through the outer surface of the screw. An igniter is installed on the upper surface of the movable seat.

[0009] Preferably, two symmetrical limiting rods are installed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate, and the bottom of the limiting rods passes through the movable seat and connects to the upper surface of the second drive motor.

[0010] Preferably, the upper surface of the base is equipped with multiple support legs located on the side of the fixing tube, and the support legs are welded and fixed to the fixing tube.

[0011] Preferably, each pair of fixed tubes is provided with a fixing ring, and the outer surface of the fixing ring is provided with a fixing bolt. The fixing ring is fixed to the fixed tube by the fixing bolt.

[0012] Preferably, the windshield is made of silicate and fiber-reinforced materials.

[0013] Preferably, the outer surface of the fixing tube is coated with anti-rust paint.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. By setting a first drive motor, its output end will drive the gear to rotate during operation. When the gear rotates, it can drive the rack that meshes with it to move up and down, thereby driving the wind shield to move synchronously. When the wind shield moves, it can drive the positioning slider to slide inside the positioning groove. The positioning groove can limit the sliding direction of the positioning slider, thereby improving the stability of the wind shield during lifting and lowering. In this way, the wind shield can be raised during ignition to avoid the wind force at high altitudes affecting normal ignition. This solves the problem that the existing lifting and ignition device of the flare torch does not have a windproof structure when in use, and the ignition position is usually located at high altitudes, where the wind force is often strong, which affects normal ignition.

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides an embodiment: a lifting and ignition device for an empty torch, including a base 1; it also includes a positioning groove 4, a windproof cover 5, a positioning slider 6, a rack 7, a mounting plate 8, a first drive motor 9, and a gear 10. Multiple fixed pipes 2 are mounted on the upper surface of the base 1. Multiple gas distribution pipes 3 are arranged circumferentially on the upper surface of the top fixed pipe 2. Two symmetrical positioning grooves 4 are opened on the outer side of the top fixed pipe 2. The windproof cover 5 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the top fixed pipe 2. A positioning slider 6 is installed on the inner surface of the windproof cover 5 corresponding to the position of the positioning groove 4. The positioning slider 6 is slidably connected to the positioning groove 4. A rack 7 is installed on the right side of the outer surface of the windproof cover 5. A mounting plate 8 is provided, and a first drive motor 9 is mounted on the upper surface of the mounting plate 8. The output end of the first drive motor 9 is connected to a gear 10, which meshes with a rack 7. By setting the first drive motor 9, its output end will drive the gear 10 to rotate during operation. When the gear 10 rotates, it can drive the rack 7 that it meshes with to move up and down, thereby driving the wind shield 5 to move synchronously. When the wind shield 5 moves, it can drive the positioning slider 6 to slide inside the positioning groove 4. The positioning groove 4 can limit the sliding direction of the positioning slider 6, thereby improving the stability of the wind shield 5 when it is raised and lowered. In this way, the wind shield 5 can be raised during ignition to avoid excessive wind at high altitudes affecting normal ignition.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, one end of a plurality of support rods 11 is installed on the upper part of the inner surface of the top fixed tube 2, and the other end of the support rods 11 is installed with a mounting plate 12. A second drive motor 13 is provided on the upper surface of the base 1. The output end of the second drive motor 13 is connected to a screw 14. The top of the screw 14 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 12. A movable seat 15 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the screw 14. An igniter 16 is installed on the upper surface of the movable seat 15. By setting the second drive motor 13, its output end will drive the screw 14 to rotate during operation. When the screw 14 rotates, it can drive the movable seat 15, which is threadedly engaged with it, to rotate upwards. The downward movement causes the igniter 16 to rise, completing the ignition operation. Two symmetrical limiting rods 17 are installed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 12. The bottom of the limiting rods 17 passes through the moving seat 15 and connects to the upper surface of the second drive motor 13. By setting the limiting rods 17, the position of the moving seat 15 can be restricted, preventing the screw 14 from rotating and causing the moving seat 15 to rotate, thereby ensuring transmission efficiency. Multiple support legs 18 are installed on the upper surface of the base 1 at the side of the fixed tube 2. The support legs 18 are welded and fixed to the fixed tube 2. By setting the support legs 18, the support strength of the fixed tube 2 can be improved, avoiding the problem of tilting.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4In this embodiment, each pair of fixed pipes 2 is provided with a fixing ring 19, and a fixing bolt 20 is provided on the outer surface of the fixing ring 19. The fixing ring 19 is fixed to the fixed pipe 2 by the fixing bolt 20. By setting the fixing ring 19 and the fixing bolt 20, multiple fixed pipes 2 can be connected to form a complete pipe body, thereby improving the overall strength. The windproof cover 5 is made of silicate and fiber reinforced materials. By using silicate and fiber reinforced materials to make the windproof cover 5, the windproof cover 5 can have excellent fireproof and heat insulation performance, while being lightweight and easy to lift and lower. The outer surface of the fixed pipe 2 is sprayed with anti-rust paint. By spraying anti-rust paint on the outer surface of the fixed pipe 2, the anti-rust and corrosion resistance of the fixed pipe 2 can be improved, thereby increasing its service life.

[0025] During operation, the second drive motor 13 drives the screw 14 to rotate at its output. The screw 14, when rotating, moves the threaded movable seat 15 up and down, thereby raising the igniter 16 to complete the ignition. A limit rod 17 restricts the position of the movable seat 15, preventing the screw 14 from rotating and ensuring transmission efficiency. Support legs 18 enhance the support strength of the fixed tube 2, preventing tilting. A fixing ring 19 and fixing bolts 20 connect multiple fixed tubes 2 into a single, integrated tube, increasing overall strength. The windproof cover 5, made of silicate and fiber-reinforced materials, possesses excellent fire resistance and heat insulation properties while being lightweight and easy to raise and lower. Applying anti-rust paint to the outer surface of the fixed tube 2 improves its rust and corrosion resistance, extending its service life.

[0026] Through the above steps, by setting the first drive motor 9, its output end will drive the gear 10 to rotate during operation. When the gear 10 rotates, it can drive the rack 7 meshing with it to move up and down, thereby driving the wind shield 5 to move synchronously. When the wind shield 5 moves, it can drive the positioning slider 6 to slide inside the positioning groove 4. The positioning groove 4 can restrict the sliding direction of the positioning slider 6, thereby improving the stability of the wind shield 5 during lifting and lowering. In this way, the wind shield 5 can be raised during ignition to avoid the wind force at high altitudes affecting normal ignition. This solves the problem that the existing lifting and ignition device of the venting torch does not have a windproof structure when in use, and the ignition position is usually located at high altitudes, where the wind force is often strong, which affects normal ignition.
