Description

  The present invention relates to a dust collection duct lid closing detection method for detecting the closing of a dust collection duct lid that collects dust generated during coaling by a coke oven coal loading car.

  Drawing 3 is a figure explaining dust collection work of the dust generated when charging coal into a coke oven with a charcoal vehicle. In the drawing, (A) shows the state before the lid opening operation, (B) shows the state during the lid opening operation, (C) shows the state where the lid is fully opened, and (D) shows the state where the lid is closed. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a branch pipe of a ground duct, 2 denotes a lid, 3 denotes a cylinder, 4 denotes a rod, 5 denotes a lid shaft, and 6 denotes a moving duct.

  Dust collection of the generated dust is performed according to the procedure ((A) to (D)) shown in FIG. First, from the state before the lid opening operation of (A), the rod 4 of the cylinder 3 is advanced through the lid 2 of the branch pipe 1 of the ground duct arranged along the coke oven. Then, the rod 4 pushes and rotates the lid shaft 5 (B), and after the lid 2 is fully opened, the moving duct 6 is advanced from the coal-coating car (not shown) and connected to the branch pipe 1 of the ground duct. Dust is collected (C).

  Then, after the charging is completed, when the moving duct 6 is retracted to the retracted position and the rod 4 is retracted, the lid 2 is rotated by its own weight and closes the opening of the branch pipe 1 of the ground duct (D).

  If the lid 2 is not completely closed, the dust collecting ability is lowered, and then the lid 2 and the charcoal vehicle may interfere with each other and damage the lid when the coal cart moves and passes through the position of the lid. is there. In order to prevent such a situation, it is necessary to confirm full closure of the lid every time dust collection is completed.

  The following techniques have been known so far as a dust collection duct lid closing detection method at the time of coke oven charging.

  (1) For example, a technique disclosed in Patent Document 1 that detects a backward limit position of a rod used to close a lid by a limit switch and detects the closure of the lid when the rod is in the backward limit position.

  (2) For example, by installing a spring on the rod that opens and closes the lid disclosed in Patent Document 2, it is detected by a limit switch that the rod is in contact with the lid, and the cylinder moves to operate the rod Technology that detects that the lid is closed by comparing the amount with a preset value.

  (3) As shown in FIG. 5, a public technique for detecting that a lid is closed by irradiating a closed lid with microwaves and detecting a reflected wave from the lid.

  However, the above-described prior art has the following problems.

  (1) In the technology disclosed in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 using a limit switch, the environment around the coal-cooked car of the coke oven is a large amount of dust, and the effect of rainwater and the temperature are high. Defects and poor contact are likely to occur.

  (2) Since the position of the lid of the dust collection duct differs depending on the kiln due to deformation due to heat, the relative position of the charcoal car and each lid changes for each kiln on the charcoal vehicle that is a base different from the lid. Therefore, in the technique and the public technique disclosed in Patent Document 1 using a limit switch and a microwave sensor fixed on the charcoal vehicle, false detection (actually open but detection of close) is likely to occur. Risk of contact with the lid.

  (3) In the technique disclosed in Patent Document 2 in which detection is performed by comparing the cylinder movement amount with a preset value, adjustment of the set value is required every time the kiln position changes due to heat.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and does not use limit switches or microwave sensors that are likely to cause malfunction or contact failure, and misdetection and setting due to different lid positions for each coke kiln. It is an object of the present invention to provide a dust collection duct lid closing detection method that does not require adjustment of values.

  The above problems are solved by the following invention.

  [1] An electrode is disposed at the tip of the open / close rod of the dust collection duct lid, a voltage is applied between the electrode and the ground, and a grounding current is detected. A contact detection step for detecting contact; a cylinder position 1 storage step for storing a moving position of the cylinder for operating the open / close rod at a timing when a grounding current flows when the dust collection duct lid is opened; The cylinder position 2 storing step for storing the cylinder moving position at the timing when the ground current stops flowing during the closing operation, and the cylinder moving position stored in each of the cylinder position 2 storing step and the cylinder position 1 storing step are stored. And a lid closing determination step for determining that the dust collection duct lid is closed during the closing operation. Closed detection method of the dust-collecting duct lid to the butterflies.

  [2] In the dust collection duct lid closing detection method according to [1] above, in the lid closing determination step, the absolute value of the difference between the moving positions of the cylinders stored in each of them is a predetermined set value. The dust collection duct lid closing detection method, wherein the dust collection duct lid is determined to be closed if:

  According to the present invention, the electrode is disposed at the tip of the open / close rod of the dust collection duct lid, and the ground current is detected by applying the voltage between the electrode and the ground, so that the sensor malfunctions or contacts. The defect disappears. In addition, since it was detected that the lid was closed based on the cylinder position every time the lid was opened and closed, there was no false detection due to different lid positions for each coke kiln, and the kiln position changed due to heat, etc. It is not necessary to adjust the set value each time.

It is a figure which shows the example of a process sequence of the closing detection method of the dust collection duct cover which concerns on this invention. It is a figure explaining the mode of contact detection in the present invention. It is a figure explaining the dust collection operation | work of the dust which generate | occur | produces when charging coal into a coke oven with a coal loading vehicle. It is a figure which shows the apparatus structural example in a present Example. It is a figure explaining public technology.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of a processing procedure of a dust collection duct lid closing detection method according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining a state of contact detection in the present invention. FIG. 2 is a view as seen from the Y direction of FIG. 3, and the timings (A) to (D) and the reference numerals in the drawing are the same as those in FIG. 3.

  In the present invention, first, in Step 01 shown in FIG. 1, contact detection between the dust collection duct lid and the open / close rod is performed. In order to detect this contact, an electrode is disposed at the tip of the rod 4 shown in FIG. 2, and a voltage is applied between the electrode and the ground. Before the lid opening operation (A), the tip of the rod 4 and the lid 2 via the lid shaft 5 are not in contact with each other, so that no ground current flows.

  However, when the lid opening operation is started and the tip of the rod 4 provided with the electrode comes into contact with the lid shaft 5 during the lid opening operation (B), a ground current due to the applied voltage flows. The contact detection is performed by capturing the timing when the ground current flows.

And the movement position of the cylinder which operates the rod 4 in the timing which performed the contact detection is memorize | stored. (Cylinder position 1 storage step Step02)
Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 2C, the rod 4 is further advanced, the lid shaft 5 is pushed and opened, the lid 2 is fully opened, and the moving duct 6 is advanced and connected to the branch pipe 1 of the ground duct.

Then, after charging from the charcoal vehicle is completed, the moving duct 6 is retracted to the retracted position, and the rod 4 is retracted. During this operation, as shown in FIG. 2D, the ground current that has flown up to the moment when the tip of the rod 4 and the lid shaft 5 are separated does not flow. The moving position of the cylinder at the timing at which this ground current stops flowing is stored. (Cylinder position 2 storage step Step03)
Here, in the lid closing determination step of Step 04, the lid closing determination is performed based on the cylinder movement position stored in each of the cylinder position 2 storage step and the cylinder position 1 storage step.

Specifically, for example, if the absolute value of the difference between the moving positions of the cylinders stored in each of them is equal to or less than a predetermined set value, it is determined that the lid is in the original position (closed position), and the lid is closed. Display. (Step05)
If the absolute value is larger than a predetermined set value, it is determined that the lid is not in the original position (closed position), and a lid closing failure is displayed. (Step05)

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an apparatus configuration example according to the present embodiment. An electrode is disposed at the tip of the rod, and a voltage is applied to the cylinder through an amplifier with an AC power supply of 200V.

  The amplifier has a relay for earth leakage detection.When the tip of the rod contacts the lid shaft and the ground current flows due to the applied voltage, the earth leakage detection relay is turned on. The relay for detecting leakage is turned off.

  The cylinder has a sensor for position detection (it needs to be electrically insulated from the cylinder body) and sends the cylinder position to the sequencer converter.

  The cylinder position 1 at the timing when the leakage detection relay is turned on and the cylinder position 2 at the timing when the leakage detection relay is turned off are stored.

  If the absolute value of the difference between the cylinder position 1 and the cylinder position 2 is equal to or smaller than a predetermined set value, it is determined that the lid is in the original position (closed position), and the lid closed good indication is displayed. On the other hand, if the absolute value is larger than the predetermined set value, it is determined that the lid is not in the original position (closed position), and the lid closure failure is displayed.

  As described above, in the present invention, since it is detected that the lid is closed based on the cylinder position every time the lid is opened and closed, there is no false detection due to different lid positions for each coke kiln, It is not necessary to adjust the set value every time the kiln position changes.
