Cement production apparatus
Providing a cement production apparatus in which raw material is supplied into a duct with being dispersed uniformly so that heat-exchanging efficiency is improved by even preheating and clogging and the like are prevented, so that stable operation can be carried out. Between cyclones at an upper stage and a cyclone at a lower stage disposed below cyclones at an upper stage, a duct 21 is provided to introduce exhaust gas to the cyclones at the upper stage with distributing after flowing upward from the cyclone at the lower stage; at a lower position than a distribution part 23 of the duct 21 , a material-supplying pipe 22 is connected for supplying cement raw material; at a connected part of the material-supplying pipe 22 to the duct 21 , a material-guiding chute 24 on which the cement raw material is supplied from the material-supplying pipe 22 and which drops it into the duct 21 is provided with protruding into the duct 21 ; and the material-guiding chute 24 is formed to have a flat upper surface and to be expandable by sliding so that insertion depth of a tip end 24 a from an inner-wall surface 21 b of the duct 21 is 0.15 to 0.5 times of an inner diameter of the duct 21.
1. A cement production apparatus comprising:
a plurality of cyclones vertically connected to each other, and in which exhaust gas generated in a cement kiln can flow;
a duct provided between cyclones at an upper stage and a cyclone at a lower stage among said plurality of cyclones, wherein the duct is provided below the cyclones at the upper stage and provides a distribution part among the cyclones at the upper stage, and wherein exhaust gas flowing from the cyclone at the lower stage flows upward in the duct and is distributed to the cyclones at the upper stage;
a material-supplying pipe for supplying cement raw material connected to the duct at a position below the distribution part among the cyclones at the upper stage; and
a material-guiding chute protruding into the duct from a connection part of the material-supplying pipe to the duct, so as to drop the cement raw material being supplied from the material-supplying pipe into the duct, wherein
the material-guiding chute is formed to have a flat upper surface and to be expandable by sliding so that an insertion depth of a tip end of the material-guiding chute from an inner-wall surface of the duct at the connection part is 0.15 times to 0.5 times an inner diameter of the duct.
2. The cement production apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the flat upper surface of the material-guiding chute is inclined at an angle of 60° or larger and 75° or smaller to a pipe-axis direction of the duct.
3. The cement production apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein:
a vertical distance from a horizontal plane including the distribution part of the duct to the tip end of the material-guiding chute is 2.25 times or larger than the inner diameter of the duct; and
a distance from an upper end of the cyclone at the lower stage to the tip end of the material-guiding chute is 1.0 times or larger than the inner diameter of the duct.
4. The cement production apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein a lower surface of the material-guiding chute is formed as a protruded surface which protrudes downward gradually from both side edges toward a center in a width direction.
5. The cement production apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein a lower surface of the material-guiding chute is formed as a protruded surface which protrudes downward gradually from both side edges toward a center in a width direction.
6. The cement production apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:
a vertical distance from a horizontal plane including the distribution part of the duct to the tip end of the material-guiding chute is 2.25 times or larger than the inner diameter of the duct; and
a distance from an upper end of the cyclone at the lower stage to the tip end of the material-guiding chute is 1.0 times or larger than the inner diameter of the duct.
7. The cement production apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein a lower surface of the material-guiding chute is formed as a protruded surface which protrudes downward gradually from both side edges toward a center in a width direction.
8. The cement production apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a lower surface of the material-guiding chute is formed as a protruded surface which protrudes downward gradually from both side edges toward a center in a width direction.
9. The cement production apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the cyclones at the upper stage comprise parallel arranged cyclones whose material outlets are connected at the distribution part.
