Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of waste heat recovery, specifically a waste heat recovery system for ceramsite sintering. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of ceramsite, rotary kiln sintering is one of the core processes. This process generates a large amount of high-temperature flue gas (300-600℃) and high-temperature sintered ceramsite (500-800℃). These heat sources contain a large amount of waste heat. If they are not recovered and utilized, it will not only cause energy waste, but also increase the production costs of enterprises and the environmental burden.

[0003] Existing waste heat recovery systems for ceramsite sintering typically discharge the generated flue gas directly into a serpentine tube to heat the water added to the outer casing of the tube, thus recovering waste heat. However, these systems lack components to filter dust and impurities from the flue gas. Over time, these impurities tend to adhere to the inner wall of the pipe, causing thickening of the pipe wall and affecting the normal flow of flue gas. Furthermore, the system cannot regulate the amount of flue gas entering the pipe, and excessive flue gas can lead to excessively high flow rates, reducing heat exchange efficiency and resulting in poor performance.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a waste heat recovery system for ceramsite sintering to address the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

A sealing plate 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the filter screens 4. The bottom of the sealing plate 5 is attached to the top of the treatment box 3. A lifting assembly 6 is installed at the center of the front side of the treatment box 3, and the top of the sealing plate 5 is attached to the top of the treatment box 3. A flow regulating component 7 is installed near the rear side. A flue pipe 8 is fixedly installed through the rear side of the treatment box 3 near the upper right part. A waste heat recovery box 9 is set on the left side of the rear side of the treatment box 3. A serpentine pipe 10 is installed inside the cavity of the waste heat recovery box 9. The left and right ends of the serpentine pipe 10 are fixedly extended through to the outside of the waste heat recovery box 9. The left end of the flue pipe 8 and the right end of the serpentine pipe 10 are detachably connected by a flange 20. A water injection pipe is fixedly installed through the middle of the top of the waste heat recovery box 9. A drain pipe is fixedly installed through the left side of the waste heat recovery box 9 near the bottom. Valves are installed on the outside of both the water injection pipe and the drain pipe.

[0032] The lifting assembly 6 includes two flat plates 61 fixedly installed at the center of the front side of the processing box 3. The flat plates 61 are arranged vertically. A threaded rod 62 is provided on the opposite side of the flat plates 61. The upper end of the threaded rod 62 is movably installed on the upper flat plate 61, and the lower end of the threaded rod 62 extends through to the outside of the lower flat plate 61 and is fixedly installed with a driven bevel gear 63. A driving bevel gear 64 meshes with the front side of the driven bevel gear 63. A threaded sleeve 65 is threadedly installed on the outer side of the threaded rod 62 near the lower end. L-shaped fixing rods 66 are fixedly installed at the middle of both sides of the threaded sleeve 65. The upper ends of the L-shaped fixing rods 66 are fixedly installed on the sealing plate 5. This can drive the filter screen 4 to move upward to the outside of the processing box 3, which is convenient for the staff to handle impurities and avoids the impurities from clogging the filter screen 4 after long-term use.

[0033] A transmission rod 641 is fixedly installed through the middle of the active bevel gear 64, and a vertical plate 642 is movably installed at the rear end of the transmission rod 641. The top of the vertical plate 642 is fixedly installed on the processing box 3, and a knob 643 is fixedly installed at the front end of the transmission rod 641 to facilitate the rotation of the active bevel gear 64.

[0034] A sealing groove 31 is provided on the top of the treatment box 3 near the edge, and a sealing frame strip 32 is inserted into the inner cavity of the sealing groove 31.

[0036] In this embodiment: During operation, the flue gas generated by the rotary kiln body 2 enters the treatment box 3 through the flue gas outlet pipe. After being filtered by the double-layer filter screen 4, the flue gas enters the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe 8, and then enters the serpentine pipe 10. The heat in the flue gas can heat the clean water added to the waste heat recovery box 9, realizing the recovery and utilization of waste heat. The serpentine pipe 10 can make full use of the heat in the flue gas and extend the time of the flue gas in the pipe. In addition, after long-term use, the dust and impurities on the filter screen 4 can be cleaned. Turning the knob 643 will drive the transmission rod 641 to rotate. When the transmission rod 641 rotates, it drives the active bevel gear 64 to rotate. When the active bevel gear 64 rotates, it drives the threaded rod 62 to rotate through the driven bevel gear 63. When the threaded rod 62 rotates, it drives the threaded sleeve 65 to move upward. When the threaded sleeve 65 moves upward, it drives the sealing plate 5 to move upward through the L-shaped fixing rod 66. At this time, the filter screen plate 4 will also move upward synchronously with the sealing plate 5, so that the filter screen plate 4 can be removed. The dust and impurities attached to it can be cleaned (which is beneficial for wiping and vacuuming equipment, etc.). After cleaning, the operation is reversed to restore the filter screen plate 4 and the sealing plate 5 to their original positions.

[0038] This embodiment is an improvement upon embodiment 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-2 , Figure 5-7 and Figure 10 The flow regulation component 7 includes a servo motor 71 located on the top of the sealing plate 5 near the rear side and a turntable 72 fixedly installed at the output end of the servo motor 71. A fixed shaft 73 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the turntable 72 near the upper left edge, and a sliding frame 74 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the fixed shaft 73. A movable plate 75 is located on the right side of the sliding frame 74. Movable rods 76 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the movable plate 75 near the left and right sides, and the lower ends of the movable rods 76 slide through and extend into the inner cavity of the processing box 3, and are fixedly installed on an adjustment plate 77. The rear side of the adjustment plate 77 is fitted against the inner wall of the inner cavity of the processing box 3, and the adjustment plate 77 is located at the front end of the exhaust pipe 8. By adjusting the up and down position of the adjustment plate 77, the diameter of the exhaust pipe 8 can be adjusted to avoid the flue gas entering too quickly and affecting the waste heat utilization rate.

[0039] A support base 711 is fixedly installed at the middle of the bottom of the servo motor 71, and the bottom of the support base 711 is fixedly installed on the sealing plate 5, which serves to support the servo motor 71.

[0040] A connecting rod 751 is fixedly installed at the middle of the left side of the movable plate 75, and the left side of the connecting rod 751 is fixedly installed on the sliding frame 74, which can drive the movable plate 75 to move up and down synchronously with the sliding frame 74.

The lower end of the guide rod 742 is fixedly installed on the sealing plate 5, which serves to guide and limit the movement of the sliding frame 74, resulting in high stability.

[0042] In this embodiment: when the flue gas begins to be emitted, the diameter of the flue pipe 8 can be adjusted. The operation of the servo motor 71 will drive the turntable 72 to rotate. When the turntable 72 rotates, it will drive the sliding frame 74 to move up and down back and forth through the fixed shaft 73. When the sliding frame 74 moves up and down, it will drive the moving plate 75 to move up and down back and forth through the connecting rod 751. When the moving plate 75 moves up and down, it will drive the adjusting plate 77 to move downward through the moving rod 76, so that it can slowly move away from the flue pipe 8. This allows the diameter of the flue pipe 8 to be adjusted, preventing the flue gas from entering too quickly and affecting the utilization rate of waste heat.
