Detailed Implementation

[0019] 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.

[0020] like Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic dust collection system for cement kiln tail, including a rotary kiln 1 and a sealing cover 3. A kiln tail seal 2 is provided at the tail of the rotary kiln 1. A slot 4 is provided on the side of the sealing cover 3 near the kiln tail seal 2. The diameter of the slot 4 is larger than the diameter of the kiln tail seal 2. The purpose of this design is to reserve space for the kiln tail seal 2 to move up and down, so as to avoid wear during movement.

[0021] A cleaning brush 13 is provided in the middle of the kiln tail seal 2. The cleaning brush 13 can clean the inner wall of the sealing cover 3. The cleaning brush 13 rotates with the kiln tail seal 2. During the rotation, the cleaning brush 13 can clean the inner wall of the sealing cover 3 and sweep away the kiln ash.

[0022] A sealing plate 7 is provided on the outer side of the kiln tail seal 2, and a hidden groove 5 is opened inward in the middle of the groove 4. The sealing plate 7 is located in the groove 4 and extends into the hidden groove 5.

[0023] The bottom of the sealing cover 3 is equipped with an ash collection hopper 8. The inner wall of the ash collection hopper 8 is provided with a cooling chamber 81. Since the temperature of the kiln ash is two to three hundred degrees, it needs to be cooled to prevent burns to the connecting hose 9. The cooling chamber 81 is provided with a cold water inlet 82 and a hot water outlet 83. The bottom of the ash collection hopper 8 is provided with a connecting hose 9. The connecting hose 9 is a transitional connector, and it is more suitable to use soft material than hard pipe here.

[0024] The inner wall of the ash collection hopper 8 is equipped with a level gauge 21, the outlet of the ash collection hopper 8 is equipped with an airlock valve 22, and the inlet of the dust suction pipe 10 is equipped with an air volume regulating valve 6 that is interlocked with the airlock valve 22.

[0025] One end of the connecting hose 9 is connected to a suction pipe 10, which is connected to the preheater exhaust main pipe 12 (the arrow in the figure indicates the direction of flue gas inlet). An air inlet pipe 15 is installed at the outlet of the preheater exhaust main pipe 12, and a high-temperature fan 11 is installed on the air inlet pipe 15. The outlet of the air inlet pipe 15 is connected to the bypass branch pipe 17 and the raw material mill 16 respectively. The bypass branch pipe 17 is connected to the bag dust collector 18. The raw material mill 16 is connected to the cyclone separator 20 through the exhaust pipe 19, and the cyclone separator 20 is connected to the bag dust collector 18 through the circulating fan 14.

[0026] Turn on the high-temperature fan 11 to extract the exhaust gas from the main exhaust gas pipe 12 of the preheater. The exhaust gas is divided into two paths and enters the bag dust collector 18. One path is sent directly into the bag dust collector 18 through the bypass branch pipe 17, and the other path is first sent into the raw material mill 16. Then, the exhaust gas discharged from the raw material mill 16 enters the cyclone 20 through the exhaust gas pipe 19 to achieve gas-solid separation. The exhaust gas is then extracted by the circulating fan 14 and sent into the bag dust collector 18.

[0027] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0028] During use, the kiln ash leaking from the kiln tail is mainly collected through the sealing cover 3. In order to prevent the kiln ash from escaping from the contact point (groove 4) between the sealing cover 3 and the kiln tail seal 2, we provide a sealing plate 7 on the outside of the kiln tail seal 2. The sealing plate 7 can be inserted into the dark groove 5, and a gap is reserved between the kiln tail seal 2 and the groove 4. This gap is used as a buffer space when the kiln tail seal 2 moves up and down, so as to prevent the kiln tail seal 2 from colliding with the sealing cover 3 when it moves. The sealing plate 7 can always cover the entire groove 4 throughout the process to prevent the kiln ash from escaping.

[0029] The escaped kiln ash falls into the sealing cover 3 and enters the ash collection hopper 8 at the bottom. Cold water is introduced into the cooling chamber 81 through the cold water inlet 82 to cool the kiln ash. The warm water after absorbing heat is discharged through the hot water outlet 83.

[0030] The ash collection hopper 8 is equipped with a level gauge 21. When the ash level reaches the set height, the level gauge 21 triggers the airlock valve 22 and the air volume regulating valve 6 to open completely. The negative pressure in the pipeline is used to automatically extract the ash from the ash collection hopper. After the ash collection is completed, the valve automatically closes.

[0031] The kiln ash flows through the connecting hose 9 and the dust suction pipe 10, then merges into the preheater exhaust gas main pipe 12, and finally enters the dust collector for absorption.

[0032] In summary, this automatic dust collection and cleaning system for cement kiln tails, by setting up a sealing cover, can collect kiln ash leaking from the kiln tail seal. Furthermore, the tight fit between the larger diameter slot and the sealing plate can overcome the ash leakage problem caused by the vertical movement of the rotary kiln, ensuring that kiln ash does not leak into the environment. In addition, by setting up a cooling chamber in the ash collection hopper, the high-temperature kiln ash can be cooled and then connected to the main exhaust gas pipeline, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic dust collection.
