Description

  The present invention relates to a cyclone inner cylinder of a suspension preheater in which a plurality of components are connected in a circumferential direction and a height direction to form a cyclone inner cylinder having a predetermined diameter and a predetermined height.

  As is well known, the cement manufacturing apparatus includes a rotary kiln. Then, a finely pulverized cement mixed raw material made of limestone, clay, silica or the like is put into this rotary kiln and fired at a high temperature of about 1,450 ° C., for example. At this time, the temperature of the exhaust gas discharged from the rotary kiln reaches about 1,000 ° C. Therefore, preheating of the mixed raw material supplied to the rotary kiln with this high-temperature exhaust gas is performed. A cyclone is generally used for this preheating. As is well known, the cyclone includes a substantially cylindrical main body portion and a tapered portion that is narrowed from the main body portion in a tapered shape. A cyclone inner cylinder is provided inside the main body. Therefore, when the mixed raw material and exhaust gas are supplied to the cyclone, the mixture of the raw material and exhaust gas swirls outside the cyclone inner cylinder in the cyclone body, the raw material having a large specific gravity is discharged from below the tapered portion, and the exhaust gas is discharged from the cyclone inner cylinder. It is discharged from above through. During this time, the mixed raw material and the exhaust gas are separated, and heat exchange is performed to preheat the raw material.

  As described above, since the cyclone inner cylinder is provided inside the cyclone main body, the separation of the mixture of the raw material and the exhaust gas is enhanced and the heat exchange rate is improved, but the exhaust gas discharged from the rotary kiln is as described above. It contains components that are hot and corrode metals. Therefore, the cyclone inner cylinder is bent into a cylindrical shape from a rust-free steel plate, and ends are joined by welding to be integrated into a cylindrical shape. Alternatively, they are integrally formed from a heat-resistant alloy by casting.

  Incidentally, as described above, high heat is applied nonuniformly to the cyclone inner cylinder and a thermal stress is generated. However, since the cyclone inner cylinder is an integral structure, distortion, cracking, and the like are generated due to the thermal stress. In addition, there is a part where the temperature is locally abnormally high, and corrosion also occurs from this part. Then, it must be exchanged, but the cyclone inner cylinder used in the cement manufacturing apparatus has a diameter of 2,100-4,100 mm and a height of about 2,000 mm. It becomes a large-scale work using etc. Also, despite being damaged locally, the whole must be replaced, which is uneconomical.

No. 2-7436 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-101977

  Therefore, Patent Document 1 proposes a split assembly type cyclone inner cylinder formed of components divided in a circumferential direction and a height direction. The inner cylinder component is formed with connecting portions at the upper and lower ends, and on both sides are vertically provided with flanges protruding in the portion located inside when assembled, and these flanges are used for bolt insertion. A hole is formed. Since the above-described cyclone inner cylinder is of a split assembly type, the problems with respect to distortion, cracking, and the like due to thermal stress are improved to some extent as compared with the above-described integrated cyclone inner cylinder. Also, because of the split type, it is recognized that one component member is relatively light and can be carried into the cyclone body and assembled relatively easily. Furthermore, it is recognized that the cyclone inner cylinder can be repaired and replaced locally. However, since the components of the cyclone are integrated in the circumferential direction by bolting the flange, the thermal shrinkage in the circumferential direction cannot be absorbed, and problems such as distortion and cracking can be avoided. Absent. In addition, since a large number of bolts are used, there is a drawback that it takes time to assemble and disassemble.

  Therefore, the present applicant has proposed a cyclone inner cylinder that solves the above-described problems according to Patent Document 2. The cyclone inner cylinder is composed of a plurality of components, and is suspended and connected in the circumferential direction and the height direction to form an inner cylinder having a predetermined diameter and a predetermined height.

  The cyclone inner cylinder proposed by the present applicant is formed with a predetermined diameter and a predetermined height by connecting a plurality of components in the circumferential direction and the height direction, so that the stress caused by heat is It can be absorbed even if it occurs in the direction of, and there is an advantage that there is no occurrence of distortion, cracking, etc. in the component, and the upper part of the component located above when assembled is a plurality of second One engaging element is provided, and a lower part located below is provided with a second engaging element that engages with the first engaging element. When connected in the direction, since the lower component is suspended over the upper component, the movement is restricted by the lower component. Therefore, the connection strength in the circumferential direction is increased, the components do not sway during operation, the conventional bolting is not troublesome, and the suspension can be easily assembled and disassembled easily. Has the advantage. Since it has such a number of advantages, there is no particular problem in use, and it is still effectively implemented.

  However, the manufacturing cost of the cyclone inner cylinder may be increased, and the inventory management of components may be complicated. More specifically, as described above, the cyclone inner cylinder has various sizes such as a diameter of 2,100 to 4,100 mm and a height of 2,000 mm. Therefore, the size of the component also varies. The mold for casting the components also varies. As a result, the manufacturing cost may increase. In addition, since a plurality of components having different sizes must be manufactured and stored, inventory management becomes complicated. Furthermore, there is a problem that it cannot be diverted because it is different in size when used in a plurality of facilities, and it cannot be diverted between factories. Such a problem or a fault can be said also about the case where the component of a cyclone inner cylinder is bent from a non-rust steel plate.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a cyclone inner cylinder of a suspension preheater that solves the above-described problems. Specifically, an object is to provide a cyclone inner cylinder that can be manufactured at a low cost and can be easily managed. Another object of the present invention is to provide a cyclone inner cylinder that can be used between facilities or between factories. Another object of the present invention is to provide a cyclone inner cylinder capable of releasing thermal stress in addition to the above object.

The cyclone inner cylinder of the suspension preheater is not a precision machine product as is apparent from the above description. Further, the diameter ranges from 2,100 to 4,100 mm, and the sizes vary, but an inner cylinder whose diameter changes in units of several millimeters is not required. On the other hand, since the inner cylinder of the cyclone has a cylindrical shape, its circumference and diameter are related to the circumference ratio π. And the length of the circular arc of the component which comprises the cyclone inner cylinder is also related to the circumference ratio (pi).
The present invention has been made based on these findings, and the object of the present invention is achieved by selecting the length of the arc of the component to be a predetermined multiple of the circumference ratio π. For example, it is achieved by setting the circumference ratio π to 100 times. When it is multiplied by 100, the length of the arc becomes 314 mm. When 30 components are arranged in the circumferential direction, for example, a cyclone inner cylinder having a diameter of 3,000 mm is obtained. A tube is obtained. Thus, by increasing or decreasing the number of components used, cyclone inner cylinders having different diameters in units of 100 mm can be obtained. In addition, for a component whose arc length is selected to be a predetermined multiple of the circumference ratio π, for example, three types of 760 mm, 660 mm, or 560 mm are combined in the height direction. Thereby, a cyclone inner cylinder whose height direction also changes in units of 100 mm is obtained.

  Thus, in order to achieve the above object, the invention according to claim 1 is composed of a plurality of components whose front shape is substantially rectangular and whose planar shape is arcuate, and these components are in the circumferential direction. In the case where a cyclone inner cylinder having a predetermined diameter and a predetermined height is configured connected to the height direction, the arc length of the component is selected to be a predetermined multiple of the circumference ratio π. According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the cyclone inner cylinder of the first aspect, the arc length of the component is selected to be 314 mm, which is 100 times the circumference ratio π, and the height is selected to be 760 mm, 660 mm, or 560 mm. The invention according to claim 3 is the cyclone inner cylinder according to claim 1 or 2, wherein a plurality of suspension portions are provided on the upper portion of the component located above when assembled, and A plurality of locking portions that engage with the suspension portion are provided in the lower portion located at the position, and the suspension portion and the engagement portion are arranged in a circumferential direction by the component and the suspension portion. When hung continuously, the side parts of adjacent components are in a position where they abut against each other with some play, and when hung in the height direction, both of the upper side adjacent components The lower components straddle It is provided in a position as.

  As described above, according to the present invention, since the arc length of the components constituting the cyclone inner cylinder is selected to be a predetermined multiple of the circumferential ratio π, a predetermined number of components are connected in the circumferential direction. Then, a cyclone inner cylinder having a predetermined diameter is obtained. At this time, a cyclone inner cylinder having a desired diameter can be obtained by appropriately increasing or decreasing the number of sheets used. Therefore, according to this invention, the component which comprises the cyclone inner cylinder can be normalized, and the manufacturing cost of a cyclone inner cylinder can be reduced. In addition, inventory management is facilitated, and further, it can be diverted between facilities or factories. According to another invention, the side portion of the component is a butted portion that comes into contact with the adjacent component with some play when assembled. A missing effect is also obtained.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. As shown in FIG. 1 (a), the cyclone 1 according to the present embodiment also has a cylindrical portion 2 having a substantially cylindrical shape in outline as in the conventional cyclone, and this cylindrical portion. 2 and a tapered portion 3 that is successively reduced in diameter from 2 downward. And the discharge pipe 4 is connected to the center part above the cylindrical part 2, and the supply pipe 5 is provided in the surrounding wall of the cylindrical part 2 in the tangential direction. A cyclone inner cylinder 10 is provided at a predetermined interval inside the cylindrical portion 2 of the cyclone 1 thus configured. The cyclone inner cylinder 10 is composed of a plurality of components 11, 11,... Made of a heat-resistant alloy or made of a non-rust steel sheet. And, it is suspended from above inside the cylindrical portion 2. Therefore, when high-temperature exhaust gas and cement raw material are supplied in the direction of the arrow from the supply pipe 5, these mixtures rotate in the outer space of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 inside the cylindrical portion 2. In this process, the raw material having a large specific gravity descends along the inner wall of the tapered portion 3 and is discharged from the underflow pipe 6 to, for example, a rotary kiln. On the other hand, the exhaust gas having a small specific gravity is supplied from the cyclone inner cylinder 10 through the discharge pipe 4 to, for example, the next cyclone. In this way, the raw material is preheated. Such cyclones are provided in a plurality of stages.

  The cyclone inner cylinder 10 is composed of a plurality of components 11, 11,... As described above, and is assembled as follows. That is, a plurality of suspension fittings 20, 20,... Are attached to the uppermost portion of the cylindrical portion 2 of the cyclone 1, and the uppermost components 11, 11,. The upper end is suspended. The upper end of the next stage component 11, 11,... Is suspended from the lower end of the uppermost component 11, 11,. The connecting fitting 30 is attached to the lower end of the. Therefore, the hanging metal fitting 20, the component 11, and the connecting metal fitting 30 will be described in this order.

  2A is a side sectional view of one hanging bracket 20 and FIG. 2B is a plan view thereof. As shown in these drawings, the hanging bracket 20 is a cyclone. The base member 21 is fixed to the component member K with a bolt B, and a locking piece 23 rising substantially perpendicularly from the base member 21 to a predetermined height is formed so that the side surface has a substantially L shape. Yes. The base 21 has a substantially trapezoidal shape in plan view, and a central rib 24 for reinforcement and side ribs 25 and 25 are integrally formed with the locking piece 23 at the center and both sides thereof. On both sides of the central rib 24, bolt insertion holes 22 and 22 having long holes for attachment are formed.

  The locking piece 23 has the same width and the same arc shape as the component 11 of the cyclone inner cylinder 1 described later. Therefore, one component 11 is suspended from one hanging bracket 20. Thereby, the odd-numbered components 11, 11,... Can be arranged. Between the central rib 24 and the side ribs 25, 25 of the locking piece 23 having such a size, there are locking portions 26, 26, and the component 11 is suspended from these locking portions 26, 26. It is done. The interval between the locking portions 26 and 26 is “Lk”.

  3A is a front view of the components of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 partially assembled and viewed from the inside of the cyclone inner cylinder 10. FIG. 3B is a sectional view of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 viewed in the direction of the arrow Rolo. 1 (b) is a part of a plan sectional view when the cyclone inner cylinder is assembled. As shown in these drawings, the component 11 of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 is the In the embodiment, it is composed of one type of component 11 regardless of the position where it is suspended. The component 11 has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front, and has an arc shape in plan view. The length of the circular arc is selected to be a predetermined multiple, for example, 100 times the circumference ratio π. Thereby, the cyclone inner cylinder 10 having a predetermined diameter can be assembled by using a predetermined number of components 11, 11,.

Hereinafter, the single component 11 will be described in more detail. In FIG. 1B, when the diameter of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 is D, the arc length of the component 11 of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 is A, and the number of components 11 to be used is X,
A = D · π / X (1)
By the way, when this circumference ratio exists, the arc length A becomes a length having a decimal point, and the manufacturing cost of the wooden mold or the mold becomes high. Therefore, the arc length A is set to B times the circumference ratio π. Then
A = B · π = D · π / X
D = B · X (2)
For example, if B is 100 where the decimal point disappears, D = 100 · X, and if 30 components 11 are used, for example, the cyclone inner cylinder 10 having a diameter of 3,000 mm (D = 100 · 30 = 3,000). When 31 sheets are used, an inner cylinder having a diameter of 3,100 mm is obtained. Thus, the number of the components used is increased / decreased, and the cyclone inner cylinder 10 changed to the diameter 100mm unit is obtained. As described above, the diameter of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 currently being implemented is about 2,100 to 4,100 mm, and since it is not a precision machine product, the inner cylinder 10 whose diameter changes in units of 100 mm is prepared. By doing so, the intended purpose of the invention is achieved.

  The diameter of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 can be changed in various ways. For example, when the component 11 whose arc length A is 50 times the circumference ratio π is employed, the diameter can be changed in units of 50 mm. On the contrary, if 200 times the component is adopted, the diameter can be changed in units of 200 mm. As described above, the diameter of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 can be changed. However, when the component 11 having 50 times the circumference ratio π is employed, the number of the component 11 used is increased, which is not necessarily preferable in terms of management. On the contrary, if 200 times is adopted, the number of used sheets is reduced, but the circle of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 is distorted. For the above reasons, considering that the diameter of the currently used cyclone inner cylinder is about 2,100 to 4,100 mm, it can be said that about 100 times is desirable.

  Further, although the length direction or the vertical direction is not particularly limited, for example, 760, 660 and 560 mm are prepared in this embodiment. These long and short components 11 are appropriately combined and connected in the vertical direction. Thereby, the cyclone inner cylinder 10 of predetermined height is comprised. For example, when the 760 mm component 11 is connected in two stages and the 560 mm element 11 is connected in one stage, the cyclone inner cylinder 10 having a height direction of 1980 mm is obtained. Similarly, the cyclone inner cylinder 10 having a height of 100 mm is obtained in the height direction. As shown in FIG. 1B, both side portions of the component 11 configured as described above are abutting portions 14 that come into contact with a gap when assembled. The expansion due to heat of the component 11 is absorbed by the abutting portion 14 having a gap.

  The upper part of the component 11 selected for the shape and size as described above is bent outwardly as shown in FIG. 3B, and in FIG. As shown by the dotted line, a pair of hanging parts 12 and 12 are formed. The distance “Lt” between the pair of hanging parts 12, 12 is equal to the distance Lk between the locking parts 26, 26 of the hanging metal fitting. Thereby, the component 11 can be suspended without being disturbed by the central rib 24 and the side ribs 25, 25. The distance Lt between the pair of hanging parts 12 and 12 is, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), when sequentially assembled in the circumferential direction with the hanging part 12 of the adjacent component 11. It is also equal to the distance Lt. Thereby, the lower component 11 can be suspended in a zigzag manner with respect to the upper component 11.

  In the lower part of the component 11, an enlarged-diameter portion 15 is formed that extends radially outward by substantially the same dimension as the thickness of the component 11. And the lower end part of this enlarged diameter part 15 is bent inside by the key shape, and the two latching | locking parts 16 and 16 are provided. The size and interval Lt of these locking portions 16 and 16 are the same as the locking portions 26 and 26 of the locking piece 23 of the hanging metal fitting 20.

  The component 11 attached to the lowermost stage is configured in the same manner, but a connecting fitting 30 is attached to the lower end portion thereof as shown in FIG. The connecting metal fitting 30 is also formed in the same arc shape, and a pair of engaging portions that engage with the locking portions 16 and 16 of the component 11 are formed. The connecting metal fitting 30 is mounted between the adjacent components 11 and 11. Note that reference numeral 27 in the component 11 indicates a thin hole for wear tics.

  Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described. First, the hanging metal fittings 20, 20,... Are attached to the constituent member K above the cylindrical portion 2 of the cyclone 1 with bolts B and B. A state in which a part is attached is shown in FIG. Since the diameter of the cyclone inner cylinder 10 reaches 2,100 to 4,100 mm as described above, a person enters inside and performs the hanging work as follows. That is, in order to configure the upper stage U first, the suspension parts 12 and 12 of the component 11 are suspended by being attached to the locking parts 26 and 26 of the suspension metal fitting 20.

  The next middle stage M is suspended and assembled in the same manner as the upper stage U components 11, 11,. At this time, since the interval Lt between the hanging parts 12 and 12 of the component 11 and the interval Lt between the hanging parts 12 and 12 of the adjacent component 11 and 11 are equal, the adjacent component 11 of the upper stage U The intermediate M component 11 is suspended from the upper U component 11 as described above. When suspended in this manner, the adjacent butting portions 14 of the upper U component 11 come to the center of the middle M component 11 in the vertical direction. As a result, the movement of the constituent elements 11, 11,. In the same manner, suspend the necessary number of steps and assemble. At this time, since the diameter-expanded portion 15 is formed in the constituent elements 11, 11,..., It is clear that the constituent element 11 faces in a substantially vertical direction.

  Finally, as shown in FIG. 3, the lower end portion of the component 11 adjacent to the lowermost stage D is connected by connecting metal fittings 30, 30,. The components 11, 11,... Sway in the radial direction during operation due to the connecting fittings 30, 30,..., And the butting portions 14, 14,. It is clear that the removal can be done in the reverse procedure.

  The present invention can be implemented in various ways. For example, the present invention can be implemented similarly by forming a through hole for engagement on the hanging metal fitting 20 and providing a hook to be inserted into the through hole at the upper end of the component 11. At this time, it is clear that the same through hole as the through hole of the hanging metal fitting 20 is formed in the lower end portion of the component 11. Since the hook and the through hole are relative, it is obvious that the hook can be formed in the same manner even if the hook is formed in the hanging metal fitting and the through hole is formed in the component. Further, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1B, the abutting portion 14 has a side surface substantially perpendicular to the component 11, but the other side surface such as a slope is formed on the substantially right side surface. It is also clear that it can be transformed into a shape.
