Rotary kiln end sealing assembly
The present invention belongs to the field of retorting apparatus used in the field of oil shale processing, in particular the invention relates to the end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln and the improvements of the end sealing ( 16 ); whereas the first and second casing ring ( 2, 3 ) used in the end sealing compose of at least four segment, and onto both sides of the rotating casing ring ( 1 ) a rectangulary cut hollow ( 81, 91 ) for lubricants has been formed; and on the side that is assembled with the rotating casing ring of the first and second casing ring ( 2, 3 ), accordingly, a hollow ( 82, 93 ) has been formed for lubricants, which in the making face the corresponding hollow ( 81, 91 ) of the casing ring, forming lubricant channels ( 8, 9 ) between the casing ring ( 1 ) of the end sealing assembly and the first and second casing ring ( 2, 3 ).
1. An end sealing assembly of a rotary kiln that comprises:
a first flange attached to the outside of the end of a rotating drum of the rotary kiln and to which a rotating casing ring is attached, rotating with the rotating drum;
a second flange attached to the outside end of a fixed input/output unit of the rotary kiln and onto which a first fixed casing ring is attached and a second fixed casing ring is attached with fixing devices;
whereas the fixing devices include a spring, a fixing bolt and a fixed flange onto which the second fixed casing ring is attached,
wherein the first fixed casing ring and the second fixed casing ring are both made out of at least four segments coupled together to arrange respectively the first fixed casing ring and the second fixed casing ring arranged on opposite circumferential sides of the rotating casing ring attached to the rotating drum whereas hollows for lubricant are onto both sides of the rotating casing ring; and correspondingly, a hollow with a trapezoidal cross section for lubricant is formed onto the side of the first fixed casing ring and the second casing ring to be assembled with while composing the rotating casing ring with the first and second casing ring; and such that when forming the end sealing assembly, a first lubricant channel is made out of the hollows between the rotating casing ring and the first fixed casing ring, and a second lubricant channel is made out of the hollows between the rotating casing ring and the second fixed casing ring.
2. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of depth Dk of the hollow formed onto the one side of the first fixed casing ring to thickness T of said first fixed casing ring is between 0.15 to 0.6 and the ratio of depth of the hollow formed onto the one side of the second fixed casing ring to thickness T of said second fixed casing rings is between 0.15 to 0.6.
3. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 1 , wherein for the lubricant, which is added to the end sealing assembly while the rotary kiln is working, a first filling channel with a head from the outside of the first fixed casing ring to the first lubricant channel is formed in the first fixed casing ring and a second filling channel with a head from the outside of the second fixed casing ring to the second lubricant channel is formed in the second casing ring.
4. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 3 , wherein the sensors measuring the quantity and temperature of the added lubricant are placed onto the input end of the first filling channel and the second filling channel.
5. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 1 , wherein the hollows in the rotating casing ring, the first fixed casing ring and the second fixed casing ring have the trapezoidal cross section.
6. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second fixed casing ring are made of cast iron.
7. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 1 , wherein the rotating casing ring is made of steel.
8. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 1 , wherein the rotating casing ring is made out of at least two segments coupled together to arrange the rotating casing ring which is connected to the rotating drum.
9. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 1 , wherein the segments of the first fixed casing ring and second fixed casing ring have identical thickness and the first fixed casing ring and the second fixed casing ring as being respectively formed out of segments have an identical diameter.
10. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 1 , wherein between the rotating casing ring and the second flange, which is attached to the outside of the end of the rotary kiln input/output unit, a sealing is placed, the outer diameter of which is smaller than the inner diameter of the first fixed casing ring.
11. The end sealing assembly of the rotary kiln according to claim 2 , wherein the hollows in the rotating casing ring, the first fixed casing ring and the second fixed casing ring have the trapezoidal cross section.
