Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mineral medicinal material processing technology, and in particular relates to a hot air circulating mineral medicinal material calcination device. Background Technology
[0002] Mineral medicines refer to a category of traditional Chinese medicines that are made from inorganic substances such as minerals, rocks, or fossils collected from nature and processed for medical purposes. Calcination is one of the core processes in the processing of mineral-based traditional Chinese medicines. By treating the medicines at high temperatures, the physicochemical properties of the medicinal materials are changed, thereby optimizing the efficacy, reducing toxicity, or producing new therapeutic effects.
[0003] Currently, most existing calcination devices use single heating or natural convection. After the heating source is centrally supplied, the heat is diffused by natural air flow, which can easily lead to an imbalance in the temperature distribution in the calcination chamber, resulting in uneven calcination of medicinal materials and affecting the calcination quality. Furthermore, the flue gas generated by high-temperature calcination is discharged directly from the calcination device without being recovered, which not only wastes energy but may also cause fluctuations in the calcination environment temperature due to the loss of high-temperature flue gas.
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this application proposes a hot air circulating mineral calcination device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a hot air circulating mineral calcination device that solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model relates to a hot air circulating mineral calcination device, comprising a shell, a calcination chamber, and a heater, and further comprising:
[0008] A hot air circulation mechanism, comprising a fan, wherein the output end of the fan is connected to the air distribution chamber provided in the calcining box through an air supply pipe, and the input end of the fan is connected to the calcining chamber provided in the calcining box through an air exhaust pipe.
[0009] The heat exchanger is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the shell, and the heat exchanger has parallel, non-communicating fresh air passages and exhaust gas passages arranged in parallel.
[0010] The exhaust gas inlet pipe is connected to the air supply pipe at one end and to the exhaust gas passage inside the heat exchanger at the other end. The exhaust gas passage of the heat exchanger is also connected to the exhaust gas outlet pipe.
[0011] The fresh air outlet pipe is connected at one end to the exhaust pipe and at the other end to the fresh air channel inside the heat exchanger. The fresh air channel of the heat exchanger is also connected to the fresh air inlet pipe.
[0012] Furthermore, a uniform air distribution plate is fixedly installed inside the calcination chamber, and the uniform air distribution plate is located between the calcination chamber and the air distribution chamber, and the uniform air distribution plate is provided with ventilation holes.
[0013] Furthermore, one-way adjustable dampers are installed on the exhaust gas inlet pipe and the fresh air outlet pipe respectively.
[0014] Furthermore, the heater is an electric heater, and the heater is embedded in the side wall of the calcining box.
[0015] Furthermore, a fixed frame is fixed inside the calcination box, and the fixed frame has a multi-layer structure, with a material tray in each layer of the fixed frame.
[0016] Furthermore, the tray has through holes for airflow.
[0017] Furthermore, a gap is left between the outer wall of the fixing frame and the side of the calcination chamber.
[0018] Furthermore, an insulation layer is fixed between the outer shell and the calcining box.
[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] This invention uses a fan in a hot air circulation mechanism to draw out high-temperature exhaust gas from the calcination chamber through an exhaust pipe and then send it back through an exhaust pipe, forming a hot air circulation path. This avoids the heat waste caused by the direct emission of high-temperature flue gas in traditional devices and reduces energy consumption.
[0021] This invention uses a heat exchanger to exchange heat between the introduced cold outside air and the discharged high-temperature waste gas. The preheated fresh air is then replenished to the circulation system through the fresh air outlet pipe, realizing the recovery and utilization of the discharged waste heat energy and further reducing energy consumption.

Detailed Implementation
[0030] 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.
[0031] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inner", "around" and other terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model is a hot air circulating mineral calcination device, including a shell 1, a calcination box 3, and a heater 4. It also includes: a hot air circulation mechanism, which includes a fan 5, the output end of which is connected to the air distribution chamber 302 inside the calcination box 3 via an air supply pipe 502, and the input end of which is connected to the calcination chamber 301 inside the calcination box 3 via an exhaust pipe 501; a heat exchanger 6, fixedly connected to the outer wall of the shell 1, with parallel, non-communicating fresh air channels and exhaust gas channels inside the heat exchanger 6; an exhaust gas inlet pipe 7, one end of which is connected to the air supply pipe 502, and the other end of which is connected to the exhaust gas channel inside the heat exchanger 6, the exhaust gas channel of the heat exchanger 6 also being connected to the exhaust gas outlet pipe 8; and a fresh air outlet pipe 10, one end of which is connected to the exhaust pipe 501, and the other end of which is connected to the fresh air channel inside the heat exchanger 6, the fresh air channel of the heat exchanger 6 also being connected to the fresh air inlet pipe 9.
[0033] This embodiment provides a hot air circulation type mineral drug calcination device. The hot air circulation mechanism is driven by a fan 5 to draw out the high-temperature waste gas in the calcination chamber 301 through the induced draft pipe 501 and then send it into the air distribution chamber 302 through the air supply pipe 502 to form a hot air circulation, reducing heat loss. The waste gas channel and the fresh air channel are separated by a heat-conducting wall. A portion of the high-temperature waste gas in the air supply pipe 502 enters the waste gas channel of the heat exchanger 6. Outside air enters through the fresh air inlet pipe 9 to exchange heat with the hot air in the waste gas channel. The preheated fresh air is sent into the induced draft pipe 501 through the fresh air outlet pipe 10 to participate in the circulation. The waste gas outlet pipe 8 is connected to the waste gas treatment device, and the cooled waste gas is discharged into the waste gas treatment device through the waste gas outlet pipe 8.
[0034] The calcining chamber 3 is equipped with a uniform air distribution plate 13, which is located between the calcining chamber 301 and the air distribution chamber 302. The uniform air distribution plate 13 has ventilation holes. After the gas enters the air distribution chamber 302 through the air supply pipe 502, the ventilation holes of the uniform air distribution plate 13 can make the hot air in the air distribution chamber 302 evenly diffuse to the calcining chamber 301, avoiding local airflow concentration or dead zones.
[0035] One-way adjustable dampers are installed on the exhaust gas inlet pipe 7 and the fresh air outlet pipe 10 respectively. The exhaust gas discharge volume and the fresh air intake volume can be flexibly adjusted through the one-way adjustable dampers to adapt to the heat demand of different calcination stages. The one-way adjustable damper can be an integrated valve with both adjustment and check functions, or it can be a combination component composed of an adjustment damper and a check valve connected in series to control the unidirectional flow of air and adjust its flow rate.
[0036] Among them, heater 4 is an electric heater, and heater 4 is embedded in the side wall of calcination box 3. Heater 4 directly heats calcination chamber 301, and the heating rate is fast.
[0037] The calcination chamber 3 is equipped with a fixed frame 11, which has a multi-layer structure. Each layer of the fixed frame 11 is equipped with a material tray 12, which has through holes for airflow. There is a gap between the outer wall of the fixed frame 11 and the side of the calcination chamber 301. The gap between the outer wall of the fixed frame 11 and the side of the calcination chamber 301 ensures unobstructed airflow. Hot air can pass vertically through the medicinal material layer with through holes in the material tray 12, improving heat exchange efficiency. The multi-layer structure increases the calcination area per unit volume, improving equipment capacity. The diameter of the through holes in the material tray 12 is much smaller than the diameter of the ventilation holes in the air distribution plate 13, and the material tray 12 intercepts medicinal material fragments.
[0038] Among them, a heat insulation layer 2 is fixed between the outer shell 1 and the calcining box 3. The heat insulation layer 2 can be made of heat insulation materials such as rock wool or aluminum silicate fiber to reduce the heat dissipation of the calcining box to the outside and further improve the heat energy utilization rate.
[0039] Preferably, the outer walls of the exhaust gas inlet pipe 7 and the fresh air outlet pipe 10 can be wrapped with thermal insulation cotton to reduce heat loss.
[0040] It is understandable that this utility model uses a hot air circulation mechanism to draw out high-temperature hot air and send it back into the calcination box 3 to form a circulation, thereby reducing direct heat loss. At the same time, it uses high-temperature waste gas to preheat the outside fresh air, thereby realizing the reuse of waste heat and further reducing energy consumption.
[0041] A specific application of the operation process in this embodiment is as follows: The medicinal materials are spread flat on the material tray, the heater 4 is started to raise the temperature in the calcination box 3, the fan 5 is started, and the high-temperature exhaust gas in the calcination chamber 301 is drawn out through the exhaust pipe 501 and returned to the air distribution chamber 302 through the air supply pipe 502 under the action of the fan 5. After the high-temperature gas enters the air supply pipe 502, some of the gas enters the exhaust gas channel in the heat exchanger 6 through the exhaust gas inlet pipe 7. At the same time, when the fan 5 is working, it creates a negative pressure in the fresh air outlet pipe 10, so that the outside fresh air enters the fresh air channel of the heat exchanger 6 through the fresh air inlet pipe 9. The fresh air and the high-temperature exhaust gas exchange heat in the heat exchanger 6. The preheated fresh air enters the exhaust pipe 501 through the fresh air outlet pipe 10, and then enters the air distribution chamber 302 through the air supply pipe 502 with the gas in the exhaust pipe 501.
[0042] The gas in the air distribution chamber 302 is evenly blown into the calcination chamber 301 through the air holes of the air distribution plate 13, and then passes through the through holes of the material tray 12 to fully contact the medicinal materials, thus completing the calcination process.
