Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for introducing impact forces into a heating surface, comprising a collector and a distributor, for removing deposits on the heating surface with an anvil connected to a collector or distributor, on which the impact forces act in order to oscillate the heating surface ,
  • a steam generator with steam generator heating surfaces each having a collector and distributor, known.
  • deposits of ash on the heating surfaces lead to a deterioration in the heat transfer from the flue gas to the heat transfer medium.
  • the deposits can - as in the EP 0 716 282 A1 - are cleaned by a mechanical impulse, which is transmitted from a striking element on an anvil connected to the heating surface.
  • the anvil must be made of a material that is particularly resistant to mechanical stress and firmly connected to the heating surface.
  • martensitic materials such as X20CrMoV11-1, which have a particularly high hardness, are used thus resistant to plastic deformation by the impact mechanism.
  • the particular problem here is the permanent solid connection between the anvil and the heating surface or the Krempenboden on the heating surface.
  • This usually consists of ferritic materials such as e.g. 16Mo3, which are very bad or not weldable with a martensitic material.
  • an austenitic or ferritic-austenitic intermediate plate of a material is also welded, which is welded to both a ferritic, as well as a martensitic material. It is used, for example, in 10CrMo9-10.
  • a device for the introduction of impact forces in a heating surface, in which on the front side of the collector or the distributor of the heating surface an intermediate ring for non-positive and / or positive fastening of a mounting portion of the anvil is attached.
  • anvil and intermediate ring Due to the non-positive and / or positive connection between anvil and intermediate ring can be on the intermediate plate of a ferritic-austenitic material - and a cohesive connection of this with the anvil - are omitted and thus the complex heat treatment of the welds superfluous.
  • the intermediate ring has a first thread (for example, an internal thread) and the attachment portion of the anvil a second thread (for example, an external thread), which engage in fastening the attachment portion to the intermediate ring.
  • first thread for example, an internal thread
  • second thread for example, an external thread
  • the attachment portion of the anvil may also be press-fitted to the intermediate ring to provide a frictional connection.
  • the length of the attachment portion is smaller than the width of the intermediate ring, whereby a gap remains between the collector / distributor side facing the mounting portion and the anvil-facing side of the collector / distributor after assembly of the anvil.
  • the geometry of the brim bottom substantially corresponds to the geometry of the intermediate ring.
  • the impact is transmitted through the ring in the brim floor. This is mechanically loaded only in the outer area and transfers the force directly into the pipe material of the collector / distributor of the heating surface.
  • the intermediate ring is made of the same ferritic material as the heating surface in order to provide a strong, cohesive connection in the form of a weld during welding, while the anvil itself is made of another, preferably martensitic material with higher hardness than the ferritic material since this is exposed to the loads of the impact mechanism.
  • the header / manifold is substantially in the shape of a cylinder, with the rotational symmetry axis of the intermediate ring being equal to the rotational symmetry axis of the header / manifold to provide directional introduction of the impact forces into the header / manifold tubing.
  • a bore is provided through the intermediate ring and into the attachment portion of the anvil, in which a locking pin is hammered in the mounted state of the anvil to additionally secure the anvil against waste.
  • the head portion of the anvil which absorbs the impact force can be made except in the form of a circle also as a hexagon or generally as a polygon to allow the attachment of a large wrench directly to the anvil.
  • a pressure equalization bore is advantageously provided on the anvil, extending from the bottom of the Anvil extends to one of the tool holders. This hole allows a pressure equalization of the area between the brim floor and intermediate ring to the environment.
  • FIG. 1 - 4 1 shows a device 1 for introducing impact forces into a heating surface 2 according to a first embodiment.
  • the device comprises an anvil 3 and an intermediate ring 4.
  • the anvil is preferably made of a martensitic materials such as X20CrMoV11-1 with particular hardness and has at one end a striking plate 5 for absorbing impact forces - generated by a striking mechanism, not shown - on.
  • Impact mechanisms for removing deposits on heating surfaces for steam generators are known to those skilled in the art and are therefore not further discussed here.
  • the striking plate 5 has according to a preferred embodiment, a circular striking surface and has lateral tool holders 5a.
  • the striking plate may also be made as a hexagon or generally as a polygon to allow attaching a large jaw key directly to the anvil.
  • the anvil further has at the opposite end according to the invention with the striking plate 5 integrally formed mounting portion 6 with a first thread (here external thread 6a).
  • the attachment section 6 is preferably cylindrical with a radius smaller than the radius of the striking plate 5.
  • the intermediate ring 4 is preferably made of the same ferritic material as the heating surface 2, whereby a welding of the intermediate ring 4 to the heating surface 2 without heat treatment is possible, and has an outer radius corresponding to the radius of the striking plate 5.
  • the intermediate ring 4 has a second thread (in this case an internal thread 4b on the inside of the intermediate ring 4) which engages with the first thread on the fastening section 6 for fastening the fastening section 6 of the anvil 3 to the intermediate ring 4 serves.
  • the anvil 3 is screwed by means of the internal thread 4b and the external thread 6b in the intermediate ring 4c.
  • the heating surface 2 is a superheater heating surface with reversing collector 7 and another collector / distributor, not shown.
  • the collector 7 is preferably a cylindrical hollow body which is closed at least at one end by a welded-on Krempenteil 8.
  • the heating surface 2 further comprises tubes 10 and 11, which serve for the steam discharge or steam supply to the collector 7, as the arrows in the FIG. 2 demonstrate.
  • the heating surface is preferably made of a ferritic materials such as 16Mo3.
  • the assembly of the device 1 on the heating surface 2 takes place by welding the intermediate ring 4 to the brim bottom 8 (see weld 9 in FIG Fig. 2 ) and the screwing of the attachment portion 6 of the anvil 3 in the intermediate ring 4. As a result, the anvil 3 is positively connected to the intermediate ring 4.
  • a firm tightening of the screw with a tightening torque of 400 Nm to 1500 Nm, preferably with 800 Nm, in addition to form the connection positively.
  • the tightening torque is introduced into the anvil 3 by a tool (not shown) mounted in one of the tool holders 5a and the anvil 3 is rotated relative to the intermediate ring 4 until the desired tightening torque is reached.
  • a bore 4a is introduced into the intermediate ring 4 in the radial direction in the intermediate ring 4, which extends through the thread 4b / 6b into the anvil. Subsequently, a locking pin 12 is taken in the hole and welded to the intermediate ring 4 outside. As a result, the loosening of the screw connection of anvil and intermediate ring additionally prevented by the particularly high loads when hitting the impact mechanism.
  • the anvil 3 can be separated from the intermediate ring 4 at the next revision standstill. This can be done either by loosening the screw under drilling of the locking pin 12, or by cutting the anvil 3 from the intermediate ring 4.
  • a new intermediate ring 4 can be welded either on the old intermediate ring or on the brim floor 8. If it is mounted on the old intermediate ring, so there is no change in the pressure part of the heating surface 2, which is particularly useful in terms of the elimination of otherwise necessary testing activities on Krempenboden 8.
  • FIG. 5 first shows the aforementioned, proposed anvil attachment, in which an austenitic or ferritic-austenitic intermediate plate 13 with an anvil plate 14 and a brim bottom 8 of a collector is welded and the welds are then heat-treated consuming.
  • the intermediate plate has been replaced by the intermediate ring
  • the impact force is now transferred via the intermediate ring 4 in the turf bottom 8 (see Fig. 6 ).
  • the Krempenteil 8 is mechanically loaded only in the outer region and transmits the force via an annular surface (see arrows 15) directly into the tube material of the collector 7 of the heating surface 2.
  • the central region 16 of the Krempenteils 8 is not burdened by blows, as to the assembly of the anvil 3 a gap 17 between the Krempenboden 8 facing side of the mounting portion 6 and the anvil 3 facing side of the Krempenteils 8 remains, whereby no bending stresses in the Krempenboden 8 is introduced.
  • the life of the Krempenteils 8 is significantly increased and significantly reduces the risk of damage in this area. From the FIG. 6 it can be seen that the intermediate ring 4 and turf bottom 8 are advantageously chamfered for the welding.
  • a pressure compensation hole 3a is provided in the anvil 3, which extends from the bottom of the mounting portion 6 through this and up to one of the tool holders 5a.
  • the bore 3a serves to equalize the pressure of the gap 17 (ie the area between the rim bottom 8 and the intermediate ring 4) to the environment. It is intended to prevent pressure build-up and associated detachment of the intermediate ring during welding and operation.
  • FIG. 7 A second embodiment of the device 1 according to the invention is shown in FIG FIG. 7 shown.
  • the second embodiment is different from the embodiment of FIG. 1 in that the function of the intermediate ring 3 and of the fastening section 6 are interchanged in the attachment of the anvil to the intermediate ring.
  • the attachment portion 6 of the anvil is configured as a ring with internal thread 6c, and the intermediate ring 4 has an external thread 4c. This allows screwing of the intermediate ring 4 in the anvil 3.
  • the dimensions of the intermediate ring is maintained in the second embodiment over the first embodiment, while the striking plate 5 and mounting portion 6 are dimensioned correspondingly larger.
  • a pressure equalization bore 3a can also be provided from the bottom of the anvil 3.
  • FIG. 8 is a further, third embodiment shown, in which instead of the screw of intermediate ring 4 and mounting portion 6 a purely non-positive connection is provided as a press fit.
  • a purely non-positive connection is provided as a press fit.
  • the thread according to the first embodiment instead of the thread according to the first embodiment - an excess at the radius of the mounting portion 6 forming the disc is provided on the attachment portion 6 and the intermediate ring 4 is manufactured with a defined tolerance. It is also possible to manufacture the intermediate ring 4 with an undersize and the disc with a defined tolerance. In both cases, the pressing force would be the same.
  • To mount the anvil 3 according to the third embodiment either the anvil 3 or the intermediate ring 4 is heated or cooled to cause a temperature difference between the anvil 3 and the intermediate ring (4).
  • a conventional mobile gas burner can be used, with which the intermediate ring 4 is heated to a temperature in the range of 100 ° C - 300 ° C, whereby it expands accordingly.
  • the temperature difference could also be done by cooling the anvil 3 in the unassembled state with dry ice. For this purpose, this could be embedded in dry ice and cooled, for example, to about -75 ° C. While the temperature difference exists (ie, the anvil 3 and the intermediate ring 4 have different temperatures), the fastening portions 6 are then inserted into the intermediate ring 4. Finally, the temperature difference between the anvil 3 and intermediate ring 4 is compensated, whereby anvil and intermediate ring are in press fit. Also in this embodiment, a pressure equalization hole 3a can also be provided through the attachment portion 6 to a tool holder 5a.
  • a press fit for the arrangement according to the second embodiment of FIG. 7 ie, in the arrangement in which the intermediate ring is inserted into the mounting portion
  • the mounting portion 6 with undersize (and the intermediate ring 4 with a defined tolerance) made or intermediate ring 4 is made with an oversize (and the mounting portion with a defined tolerance).
  • the intermediate ring 4 can be cooled in the unassembled state and placed in the anvil, in which case - after temperature compensation - the intermediate ring is welded in press fit with the anvil on the Krempenteil 8.
  • the intermediate ring 4 in a first step to the Krempenboden 8 are welded, heated in a second step, the anvil 3 with a burner (and thus be stretched) and then placed on the Krempenboden 8 welded intermediate ring 4, wherein after balancing the temperature difference, a drop of the anvil by the clamping force of the press fit is prevented.
