Definitions

  • This invention relates to a roller mill for pulverizing, for example, coal to feed pulverized coal to a boiler.
  • FIG. 7 designates an auxiliary classifier cone whose upper portion is made in a cylindrical shape and whose lower portion is made in an inverted truncated conical shape.
  • 14 designates rotating vanes of a rotary classifier disposed inside the auxiliary classifier cone 13, which are rotatably supported by a coal feed pipe 20.
  • 15 designates a plurality of deflector plates, 16 a pulverized-coal eject section, and 18 a mill casing.
  • each rotating vane 14 is identical in phase with respect to the direction of rotation, and the deflector plates 15 are attached to a cylindrical upper portion of the auxiliary classifier cone 13 so that individual openings 17 are formed between them.
  • 21 designates a table disposed directly under the coal feed pipe 20, and 22 a roll.
  • raw coal is caused to fall through the coal feed pipe 20 on the table 21 and pulverized by the roll 22, and fine coal particles and coarse coal particles resulting from pulverization are moved upward between the auxiliary classifier cone 13 and the mill casing 18 by means of hot air supplied from below the mill casing 18.
  • the hot air (upward stream) carrying fine coal particles and coarse coal particles moves across an annular passage formed between an upper portion of the mill casing 18 and the cylindrical upper portion of the auxiliary classifier cone 13, and flows through the openings 17 defined between the deflector plates 15 so that it is changed to a lateral rotative stream toward the rotary classifier.
  • coarse coal particles 6 are sprung back in the directions of the deflector plates 15 (see Figs.
  • fine coal particles 5 separated from coarse coal particles 6 are ejected together with the upward stream through the pulverized-coal eject section 16 out of the roller mill.
  • Coarse coal particles 6 sprung back in the directions of the deflector plates 15 move along the inner surface of the auxiliary classifier cone 13 and fall on the table 21 so that they are re-pulverized by the roll 22.
  • the present invention provides a roller mill comprising a rotary classifier with a plurality of rotating vanes, and an auxiliary classifier cone surrounding the rotary classifier, wherein each rotating vane of the rotary classifier being designed such that its lower portion is trailing with respect to its upper portion in the direction of rotation so as to define a downward-inclined rotating vane, the auxiliary classifier cone being made in an inverted conical shape from its lower edge to its upper edge, the upper edge of the auxiliary classifier cone being attached directly to a mill casing, and a plurality of deflector plates being disposed in mutually spaced relation around an upper portion of the inverted conical body of the auxiliary classifier cone so that an upward stream moving upward on the outside of the auxiliary classifier cone being changed to a lateral rotative stream toward the rotary classifier in the vicinity of the upper portion of the auxiliary classifier cone.
  • raw coal is caused to fall through a coal feed pipe on a table and pulverized by a roll, fine coal particles and coarse coal particles resulting from pulverization are moved upward between the auxiliary classifier cone and the mill casing by means of hot air supplied from below the mill casing, the hot air (upward stream) carrying fine coal particles and coarse coal particles moves across a space of triangular cross section formed between the inverted conical body of the auxiliary classifier cone and the mill casing and flows through blowoff openings defined between the deflector plates so that it is changed to a lateral rotative stream toward the rotary classifier, upon impinging on the downward-inclined rotating vanes of the rotary classifier, coarse coal particles are sprung back toward a lower portion of the auxiliary classifier cone and separated from fine coal particles, and fine coal particles separated from coarse coal particles are ejected together with the upward stream through a pulverized-coal eject pipe out of the roller mill.
  • FIG. 1 designates raw coal
  • 2 a coal feed pipe vertically disposed
  • 11 a rotary classifier
  • 10 rotating vanes of the rotary classifier, which are rotatable about the coal feed pipe 2 clockwise as viewed from above as illustrated by the arrow in Fig. 5.
  • each rotating vane 10 is designed such that its lower portion is trailing with respect to its upper portion in the direction of rotation, defining a downward-inclined rotating vane.
  • auxiliary classifier cone of inverted conical shape in general view which is disposed above the table 3, and 19 a mill casing.
  • the upper edge of the inverted conical body of the auxiliary classifier cone 7 is attached to the mill casing 19 so that a space of triangular cross section is formed between the auxiliary classifier cone 7 and the mill casing 19.
  • Figs. 1 and 3 through 6 8 designates a plurality of blowoff openings formed in an upper peripheral portion of the auxiliary classifier cone 7 as to open obliquely downward into the space of triangular cross section.
  • 9 designates a plurality of deflector plates attached to the inner surface of the upper peripheral portion of the auxiliary classifier cone 7 in mutually spaced relation, defining the blowoff openings 8.
  • the combination of blowoff openings 8 and deflector plates 9 acts to change an upward stream moving upward on the outside of the auxiliary classifier cone 7 to a lateral rotative stream toward the rotary classifier 11 in the vicinity of the upper edge of the auxiliary classifier cone 7.
  • 12 designates a pulverized-coal eject pipe provided at the top of the mill casing 19 in confronting relation to the upper end of the rotary classifier 11.
  • the operation of the roller mill shown in Figs. 1 through 6 will be described.
  • the raw coal 1 is caused to fall through the coal feed pipe 2 on the table 3 so that it is pulverized by a roll, and fine coal particles 5 and coarse coal particles 6 resulting from pulverization are moved upward between the auxiliary classifier cone 7 and the mill casing 19 by means of the hot air supplied from below the mill casing 19.
  • the hot air (upward stream) carrying fine coal particles 5 and coarse coal particles 6 moves across the space of triangular cross section formed between the auxiliary classifier cone 7 and the mill casing 19 and flows through the blowoff openings 8 defined between the deflector plates 9, so that the hot air upward stream is changed to the lateral rotative stream toward the rotary classifier 11.
  • coarse coal particles 6 are sprung back toward a lower portion of the auxiliary classifier cone 7 and separated from fine coal particles 5; on the other hand, fine coal particles 5 separated from coarse coal particles 6 are ejected together with the upward stream through the pulverized-coal eject pipe 12 out of the roller mill.
  • Table 1 lists the results of tests performed on a roller mill including the rotary classifier of the present invention and a similar one including the conventional classifier.
  • the present invention provides only a very small residual amount relating to 100 mesh (corresponding to coarse coal particles) and needs only as slow a speed as about 40 rpm for rotation of the classifier.
  • the mill pressure loss is as lower as 20 to 50 mmH2O. That is, the listed results of tests will prove that the rotary classifier of the present invention has a high degree of classification performance.
  • Table 1 roll mill with present classifier roll mill with conventional classifier test run 1-1 1-2 1-3 2-1 2-2 2-3 classifier speed (rpm) 75 100 125 110 140 170 200-mesh pass amount (%) 76 88 99 75 87 99 100-mesh residual amount (%) 2.1 0.1 0.0 3.9 1.2 0.2 mill pressure loss (mmH2O) 310 328 356 332 367 405
  • raw coal is caused to fall through the coal feed pipe on the table and pulverized by the roll, fine coal particles and coarse coal particles resulting from pulverization are moved upward between the auxiliary classifier cone and the mill casing by means of hot air supplied from below the mill casing, the hot air (upward stream) carrying fine coal particles and coarse coal particles moves across the space of triangular cross section formed between the inverted conical body of the auxiliary classifier cone and the mill casing and flows through the blowoff openings defined between the deflector plates so that it is changed to a lateral rotative stream toward the rotary classifier, and upon impinging on the downward-inclined rotating vanes of the rotary classifier, coarse coal particles are sprung back toward a lower portion of the auxiliary classifier cone so that they are separated from fine coal particles; therefore, coarse coal particles are prevented from mixing with fine coal particles, the air stream with fine coal particles carried thereon (which is ejected through the pulverized-coal eject pipe
  • the auxiliary classifier cone is made in an inverted conical shape from its lower edge to its upper edge, the upper edge of the cone is attached directly to the mill casing, and the deflector plates are arranged in mutually spaced relation around the upper portion of the inverted conical body of the auxiliary classifier cone so that the upward stream moving upward on the outside of the auxiliary classifier cone is changed to a lateral rotative stream toward the rotary classifier in the vicinity of the upper end of the auxiliary classifier; therefore, it is not necessary to make an upper portion of the auxiliary classifier cone in a cylindrical shape as in the prior art, this allowing miniaturization of the auxiliary classifier cone and reduction of the manufacturing cost.
