[0025] Reference Figure 1A rotary kiln with a cleaning function includes a support 100, a kiln cylinder 210, and a cleaning pipe 300. At least two cylindrical covers 110 are spaced apart along a straight line on the support 100, for example, there are two cylindrical covers 110. The kiln cylinder 210 is rotatably connected to the support 100. In practical applications, a motor driving the kiln cylinder 210 is mounted on the support 100. The motor is connected to a gear, and a gear ring is mounted on the outer side of the kiln cylinder 210. The gear ring meshes with the gear, and the motor outputs rotational power to the gear. Power is transmitted through the gear and gear ring, thereby driving the kiln cylinder 210 to rotate. Both ends of the kiln cylinder 210 extend into the two cylindrical covers 110 respectively. Mechanical seals can be provided at both ends of the two cylindrical covers 110 and the kiln cylinder 210 to achieve a connection seal at the end of the kiln cylinder 210. A discharge port 111 is provided on the bottom side of the cylindrical cover 110 located at one end of the kiln cylinder 210. A cleaning pipe 300 is connected to the cylindrical covers 110 located at both ends of the kiln cylinder 210. Multiple first spray ports 310 are provided on the outer side of the cleaning pipe 300 along the length direction of the cleaning pipe 300. At least one end of the cleaning pipe 300 protrudes from the cylindrical cover 110 and forms a first joint.
[0026] As described above, the kiln cylinder 210 is rotatably connected to the support 100 and can rotate on the support 100. A cylinder cover 110 is installed on the support 100 at both ends of the kiln cylinder 210 to seal both ends of the kiln cylinder 210 to the upstream and downstream external equipment. When the kiln cylinder 210 needs cleaning after operation, the first connector of the cleaning pipe 300, protruding from the end of the cylinder cover 110, is connected to the external water supply equipment or municipal water pipe to provide cleaning water to the cleaning pipe 300. Multiple first spray nozzles 310 on the outer side spray water onto the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210 to rinse the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210. At this time, the kiln cylinder 210 rotates, and the cleaning water sprayed from the cleaning pipe 300 can rinse the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210 circumferentially. This can reduce manual operation. The water sprayed from the cleaning pipe 300 can simultaneously flush and clean the entire inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, especially the middle part of the kiln cylinder 210, which can effectively improve the efficiency and quality of cleaning the inside of the kiln cylinder 210.
[0027] After cleaning the inside of the kiln cylinder 210, it is necessary to dry the inside of the kiln cylinder 210. In order to improve the drying efficiency of the inside of the kiln cylinder 210, this utility model also includes an air blowing pipe 400. The air blowing pipe 400 is connected to the cylinder cover 110 located at both ends of the kiln cylinder 210. The air blowing pipe 400 extends along the length direction of the kiln cylinder 210. Multiple second injection ports 410 are provided on the outer side of the air blowing pipe 400 along the length direction of the air blowing pipe 400. At least one end of the air blowing pipe 400 protrudes from the kiln cylinder 210 and forms a second connector. An exhaust port 112 is provided on the top side of the cylinder cover 110 located at the other end of the kiln cylinder 210. In practical applications, the air blowing pipe 400 and the exhaust pipe can be arranged alternately in the vertical direction or alternately in the horizontal direction. The second connector at the end of the air blowing pipe 400 is connected to an external high-pressure air source to provide high-pressure air to the air blowing pipe 400. Part of the high-pressure air slides along the length of the air blowing pipe 400, while part of the high-pressure air is ejected outward from multiple second injection ports 410 on its outer side and blown toward the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, thereby accelerating the evaporation of water on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210. The water vapor can be discharged outward from the exhaust port 112 located on the top side of the cylinder cover 110 to maintain the pressure on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210. In this way, the drying efficiency of the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210 is effectively improved by blowing air onto the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210 through the air blowing pipe 400.
[0028] In addition to blowing air to dry the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, the air blowing pipe 400 can also introduce different types of gases, such as nitrogen, oxygen, and reducing gases, during rotary kiln production or experimentation, to achieve functions such as supplying air or cooling the inside of the kiln cylinder 210.
[0029] In addition to allowing air to pass through, the air blowing pipe 400 can also be connected to external water supply equipment or municipal water pipes. It is also used to flush and clean the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210. To further improve the cleaning effect, such as... Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the plurality of first spray nozzles 310 and the plurality of second spray nozzles 410 are staggered along the length of the kiln cylinder 210. When the cleaning pipe 300 and the air blowing pipe 400 are simultaneously connected to cleaning water to clean the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, since the plurality of first spray nozzles 310 and the plurality of second spray nozzles 410 are staggered along the length of the kiln cylinder 210, the positions from the plurality of first spray nozzles 310 to the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210 do not overlap with the positions from the plurality of second spray nozzles 410 to the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, further increasing the coverage of the water flow for direct cleaning of the kiln cylinder 210, thereby improving the cleaning effect on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210.
[0030] To extend the service life of the cleaning pipe 300, both the cleaning pipe 300 and the air blowing pipe 400 can be made of metal pipes that are resistant to high temperatures, acids and alkalis, and corrosion.
[0031] In the above embodiments, the cleaning pipe 300 and the air blowing pipe 400 are fixedly set relative to the support 100 during operation. In order to further improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning pipe 300 on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210 and the air blowing pipe 400 on the air disturbance effect on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, in Embodiment 1, a motor is used to drive the cleaning pipe 300 and the air blowing pipe 400 to rotate simultaneously. Specifically, a first motor is set on the outside of the support 100. The first motor can drive the cleaning pipe 300 and the air blowing pipe 400 to rotate. Naturally, the two ends of the cleaning pipe 300 and the two ends of the air blowing pipe 400 are respectively rotatably connected to the two cylinder covers 110. When the cleaning pipe 300 is connected to the cleaning water to clean the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, the rotating cleaning pipe 300 sprays abundant water from different angles onto the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, improving the cleaning effect on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210. Similarly, when high-pressure air is supplied to the air blowing pipe 400, the rotating air blowing pipe 400 can better disturb the airflow on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210 when it blows air, reducing dead air angles, thereby accelerating the evaporation of water vapor at various locations on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, and further improving the air blowing drying effect on the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210.
[0032] In Embodiment 2, two motors are used to drive the cleaning pipe 300 and the air blowing pipe 400 to rotate respectively. Specifically, two second motors are provided on the outside of the bracket 100, and the two second motors drive the cleaning pipe 300 and the air blowing pipe 400 to rotate respectively. Similarly, the rotating cleaning pipe 300 can improve the cleaning effect on the inner wall of the kiln 210, and the rotating air blowing pipe 400 can increase the air disturbance on the inner wall of the kiln 210, thereby accelerating the evaporation of moisture at various locations on the inner wall of the kiln 210.
[0033] In the above embodiment, the first connector and the second connector are formed only at one end of the cleaning pipe 300 or one end of the air blowing pipe 400. At this time, water can only be supplied from one end of the cleaning pipe 300 or air can only be supplied from one end of the air blowing pipe 400. In this case, the pressure at the other end of the cleaning pipe 300 or the other end of the air blowing pipe 400 may be insufficient. In order to better ensure the water pressure and air pressure, in this embodiment, the first connector is formed at both ends of the cleaning pipe 300 and the second connector is formed at both ends of the air blowing pipe 400. When it is necessary to spray water to clean the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, the cleaning water is supplied to the cleaning pipe 300 from the first connector at both ends. This can better ensure the cleaning effect of the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210 from the kiln head to the kiln tail. Similarly, when it is necessary to spray air to clean the inner wall of the kiln cylinder 210, the air is supplied to the air blowing pipe 400 from the second connector at both ends. This can better ensure the air supply to the kiln cylinder 210 at the kiln head and kiln tail, which is conducive to improving the uniformity of air supply, especially when nitrogen, oxygen, reducing gas, etc. are introduced during production and experimentation.
[0034] In the above embodiment, both ends of the air blowing pipe 400 can be directly fixed to the two cylindrical covers 110. However, to facilitate maintenance of the air blowing pipe 400, in this embodiment, the air blowing pipe 400 and the two cylindrical covers 110 are detachably connected. When the second injection port 410 on the air blowing pipe 400 becomes blocked, the air blowing pipe 400 can be easily maintained or replaced, thus improving the overall convenience of maintenance and reducing maintenance costs.
[0035] Similarly, both ends of the cleaning pipe 300 can be directly fixed to the two cylindrical covers 110. To facilitate maintenance of the cleaning pipe 300, in this embodiment, the cleaning pipe 300 and the two cylindrical covers 110 are detachably connected. When the first spray port 310 on the cleaning pipe 300 becomes blocked, the cleaning pipe 300 can be easily maintained or replaced, thus improving the overall convenience of maintenance and reducing maintenance costs.
[0036] To facilitate the discharge of materials and cleaning waste from inside the kiln cylinder 210, in this embodiment, the kiln cylinder 210 is inclined from one end to the other, and the discharge port 111 is located on the bottom side of the cylinder cover 110 near the lower end of the kiln cylinder 210. The materials or cleaning waste inside the kiln cylinder 210 flow towards the lower end of the kiln cylinder 210 under the influence of gravity and are discharged from the discharge port 111. In practical applications, a control valve is installed at the discharge port 111 of the kiln cylinder 210, which controls the opening and closing of the discharge port 111.
[0037] A heating source for internal heating, such as an electric heating element or a natural gas heating element, is installed on the kiln cylinder 210. In order to improve heat utilization, in this embodiment, the outer side of the kiln cylinder 210 is covered with a heat insulation layer 220. The heat insulation layer 220 can reduce the heat loss of the kiln cylinder 210 and improve the heating efficiency inside the kiln cylinder 210.
[0038] Naturally, a feed inlet is provided for feeding materials into the kiln cylinder 210. The feed inlet can be formed on the top side of a cylindrical cover 110 that is relatively high near the kiln cylinder 210. A feeding screw device or a feeding pipe chute can be installed on the top side of the cylindrical cover 110 at the position of the feed inlet.
[0039] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
