Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of activation furnace technology, specifically to an activation device for uniform steam distribution within an activation furnace. Background Technology

[0002] An activation furnace is a key piece of equipment used for high-temperature activation treatment of materials such as carbon felt and activated carbon. In existing activation furnace technologies, uniform steam distribution has always been a critical factor limiting the activation effect. Traditional activation furnace designs often suffer from uneven steam distribution, mainly due to factors such as a single steam introduction method, insufficient steam diffusion, and an unreasonable internal structure. Uneven steam distribution leads to uneven heating of the felt during activation, with some areas potentially experiencing overheating or undercooling, thus affecting the activation quality and production efficiency. Specifically, this manifests as insufficient specific surface area, low porosity, and poor adsorption performance of the felt, making it difficult to meet market demands for high-quality activated felt.

[0003] However, existing solutions often suffer from problems such as uneven steam distribution, low contact efficiency, and difficult installation and maintenance, making them difficult to widely apply in actual production.

[0004] In view of this, we propose an activation device for uniform steam distribution in the activation furnace. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an activation device for uniform steam distribution in an activation furnace, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] An activation device for uniform steam distribution inside an activation furnace includes an activation furnace body. The activation furnace body has symmetrically arranged support components on its upper and lower sides. Each support component includes a support frame symmetrically arranged on the front and rear inner walls of the activation furnace body. Multiple clamping components are slidably arranged on the support frame. A heating tube and a steam inlet pipe are crosswise arranged on two sets of clamping components corresponding to the front and rear sides. A transmission device is also arranged in the middle of the activation furnace body.

[0008] Preferably, the support frame is provided with a sliding guide rail, and the bottom of the clamping assembly is slidably mounted on the sliding guide rail.

[0009] Preferably, the clamping assembly has a threaded hole in the middle, and the support frame has a plurality of positioning holes evenly distributed on one side. The positioning holes are adapted to the threaded holes, and their centers are on the same horizontal plane.

[0010] Preferably, the clamping assembly has a U-shaped groove at the top, and a movable groove is symmetrically provided at the top of the U-shaped groove. A movable block is movably arranged in the movable groove, and a spring is also provided in the movable groove. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable groove, and the other end is fixedly connected to the movable block. When the spring is in the normal state, the two movable blocks abut against each other.

[0011] Preferably, the end of the moving block away from the spring is inclined, and the inclined surface is arc-shaped.

[0012] Preferably, a baffle is fixedly installed on the side of the U-shaped groove near the inner wall of the activation furnace body, and a retaining plate is vertically installed on the baffle. The heating tube and the steam inlet tube are respectively provided with retaining grooves at both ends.

[0013] Preferably, the distance between the two corresponding baffles is adapted to the length of the heating tube and the steam inlet tube.

[0014] Preferably, the steam inlet pipe is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed holes.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] 1. This activation device for uniform steam distribution within the activation furnace increases the contact area between the steam and the felt by cross-placing the heating tubes and steam inlet pipes at the top and bottom of the furnace, effectively promoting steam diffusion and mixing within the furnace. The cross-placing heating tubes and steam inlet pipes form multiple steam channels, allowing steam to diffuse and mix in multiple directions within the furnace, thereby improving the uniformity of steam distribution.

[0017] 2. The uniform steam distribution activation device in this activation furnace optimizes the synergistic effect of heat energy and steam by combining the uniform distribution hole design on the steam inlet pipe with the cross layout of the heating tubes, reducing energy waste and avoiding local overheating or overcooling. This ensures that the steam can be released into the activation furnace evenly and finely, further improving the uniformity and efficiency of the activation reaction.

[0018] 3. The clamping assembly of the activation device with uniform steam distribution inside the activation furnace, through the design of sliding guide rails and positioning holes, can flexibly adjust the position of the heating tube and steam inlet pipe according to process requirements, enhancing the versatility and practicality of the device. The U-shaped groove, moving block and spring structure of the clamping assembly simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the heating tube and steam inlet pipe, making maintenance easier. At the same time, the design of baffles and clamps ensures that the pipeline does not shift or rotate during operation, improving the stability and safety of the equipment.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution:

[0030] An activation device for uniform steam distribution inside an activation furnace includes an activation furnace body 1. The activation furnace body 1 has symmetrically arranged support components 2 inside. Each support component 2 includes a support frame 21 symmetrically arranged on the front and rear inner walls inside the activation furnace body 1. Multiple clamping components 3 are slidably arranged on the support frame 21. A heating tube 4 and a steam inlet pipe 5 are cross-arranged on two corresponding sets of clamping components 3. A transmission device 6 is also arranged in the middle of the activation furnace body 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, the support assembly 2 is used to fix the positions of the heating element 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5, ensuring that they can be stably placed crosswise. The support assembly 2 is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, such as carbon steel or stainless steel. The heating element 4 is located vertically within the activation furnace body 1 to provide the heat required for activation. The heating element 4 is made of high-temperature resistant, corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel or nickel-based alloys, to ensure stable operation in high-temperature environments. The transmission device 6 uses existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0032] In this embodiment, the support frame 21 is provided with a sliding guide rail 22, and the bottom of the clamping assembly 3 is slidably disposed on the sliding guide rail 22.

[0033] The clamping assembly 3 is slidably mounted on the sliding guide rail 22, which facilitates the adjustment of the positions of the fixed heating tube 4 and the steam inlet tube 5 as needed.

[0034] Furthermore, the clamping assembly 3 has a threaded hole 31 in the middle, and the support frame 21 has a plurality of positioning holes 211 evenly distributed on one side. The positioning holes 211 are adapted to the threaded hole 31, and their centers are on the same horizontal plane.

[0035] After the position of the clamping component 3 is adjusted, the positioning hole 211 and the threaded hole 31 are fixed by bolts, thereby fixing the position of the heating tube 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5.

[0036] In this embodiment, the clamping assembly 3 has a U-shaped groove 32 at the top, and a movable groove 321 is symmetrically provided at the top of the U-shaped groove 32. A movable block 322 is movably arranged in the movable groove 321, and a spring 323 is also provided in the movable groove 321. One end of the spring 323 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 321, and the other end is fixedly connected to the movable block 322. When the spring 323 is in the normal state, the two movable blocks 322 abut against each other.

[0037] Furthermore, the end of the moving block 322 away from the spring 323 is inclined, and the inclined surface is arc-shaped.

[0038] When installing the heating element 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5, place both ends of them above the moving block 322 and press down. The moving block 322 compresses the spring 323 and moves into the moving groove 321. Then the heating element 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5 enter the bottom of the U-shaped groove 32. At this time, the spring 323 returns to its original position, driving the moving block 322 to move out of the moving groove 321 and return to its original position. The moving block 322 can also fix the heating element 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5, and facilitate the installation and removal of the heating element 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5.

[0039] In this embodiment, a baffle 324 is fixedly installed on the side of the U-shaped groove 32 near the inner wall of the activation furnace body 1, and a clamping plate 325 is vertically installed on the baffle 324. The heating tube 4 and the steam inlet tube 5 are respectively provided with clamping grooves 7 at both ends.

[0040] When installing the heating element 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5, move the slot 7 downwards along the plate 325 to secure them and prevent the heating element 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5 from rotating during use.

[0041] Furthermore, the distance between the two corresponding baffles 324 is adapted to the length of the heating tube 4 and the steam inlet tube 5.

[0042] The above setup facilitates the installation of the heating element 4 and the steam inlet pipe 5.

[0043] In this embodiment, the steam inlet pipe 5 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed holes 51.

[0044] It is worth noting that the size and number of holes 51 are designed according to the dimensions and process requirements of the activation furnace. The steam inlet pipe 5 is made of a corrosion-resistant material with good thermal conductivity, such as copper or stainless steel. To ensure that steam can be released evenly into the activation furnace, the holes 51 on the steam inlet pipe 5 can be processed by drilling, punching, or laser drilling.

[0045] In this embodiment, the steam uniform distribution activation device in the activation furnace generates steam through a steam generator and introduces it into the steam inlet pipe 5. Because the steam inlet pipe 5 has uniformly distributed holes 51, the steam can be released evenly and finely into the activation furnace body 1. Simultaneously, the heating element 4 provides the necessary heat, working together with the steam to promote the activation reaction of the felt. Specifically, after the steam comes into contact with the felt, a water film forms on the surface of the felt. The water in the film evaporates at high temperature, generating a large amount of steam. This steam further penetrates into the interior of the felt, reacting with the active ingredients within it, thereby promoting the activation of the felt.

[0046] Through this structural design, the present invention achieves uniform distribution of steam within the activation furnace body 1, improving the activation efficiency and effect of the felt. Specifically, the cross-placed heating tubes 4 and steam inlet pipes 5 increase the contact area and efficiency between the steam and the felt; the uniform perforation technology allows the steam to be released evenly and finely into the activation furnace, avoiding local overheating or overcooling; the support assembly 2 ensures the stable placement of the heating tubes 4 and steam inlet pipes 5 and facilitates installation and disassembly.

[0047] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
