Description

A chain-stirred digester Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of slaked lime production equipment, and in particular to a chain-stirring digester. Background Art

[0002] A quicklime digester is a special equipment for digesting quicklime into lime milk or lime powder. It is mainly used in industries such as steelmaking, chemical industry, metallurgy, papermaking, and electric field desulfurization. The industrial production of slaked lime uses a digester to produce slaked lime. The quicklime completes multi-stage digestion (a certain amount of water is mixed with quicklime) in the stirring and conveying trough of the digester to become fluffy lime powder. In the traditional structure of the existing digester, the multi-stage (three-stage, five-stage, seven-stage, etc.) stirring and conveying troughs for digesting quicklime are arranged side by side, and a single-axis propeller is used to convey the digestate in each stage of the stirring and conveying trough. The invention patent with application number 202011421622.3 discloses a quicklime digester, which has the following problems: 1. The rotating shaft is subject to large torque. In order to increase the strength, the shaft diameter and blade thickness are mostly increased. The equipment is heavy and the motor energy consumption is high. 2. Affected by the digestion time and spiral length, the length of each stage is generally less than six meters. Excluding invalid distances such as imports and exports, the available length of each stage is about 5 meters, which cannot be continuously advanced horizontally. It also requires multiple power and support structures. It is produced in a high-bottom end-to-end connection method. The supporting steel structure is large, the raw material inlet height is 5-10 meters, the cost is seriously wasted, and the amount of dust is large and the temperature loss is serious.

The stirring member 4 can be removed from the chain. When the transmission chain 2 is running, the upper and lower stirring members 4 are staggered for stirring. The distance between the stirring members 4 can be changed according to the digestion needs. Compared with the stirring device with non-adjustable blades in the prior art, it has a wider range of applications and can be better cleaned and replaced. The stirring member 4 can also be arranged on the transmission chain 2 in an oblique and symmetrical manner, with gaps left between the symmetrically arranged stirring members 4.

At the same time, trench insulation or shell insulation can be provided on the outside of the digester body 1.

[0050] In some embodiments, the transmission chain 2 may adopt the following structural scheme, wherein the transmission chain 2 is two chains arranged side by side along the length of the digestion cavity 11 .

[0051] The benefit of adopting the above technical solution is that the transmission chains 2 arranged side by side can improve the stability of the stirring member 4 and extend the horizontal propulsion distance.

[0052] In some embodiments, the digester body 1 may adopt the following structural scheme, and the digester body 1 is connected to a dust collector 15.
