Definitions
- the present invention relates to a grate cooler for cooling granular material, such as cement clinker or the like, which cooler is of the kind (hereinafter referred to ' 5 as of the kind described) comprising a grate surface which is made up of a number of, preferably overlapping, rows of grate plates and the longitudinal edges of which are laterally bounded and overlapped by elongate edge guards of angular cross section which are fixed relatively to the 10 side walls in such a way that a gap is provided between each edge guard and the grate plates at the respective edge of the grate surface.
- EP-A-0378821 discloses such a grate cooler in which the gaps between the edge grate plates of the grate surface 15 and the side walls of the cooler are sealed off by means of angular edge guards.
- This known grate cooler further comprises a tension arrangement which forces the grate surface in the direction towards the edge guards, thereby ensuring that the gap width is reduced as much as possible 20 commensurate with varying operating conditions.
- a grate cooler of the kind described which is characterised in that a hollow duct is provided extending along each side wall adjacent to the respective edge guard and is arranged to be connected to an air supply source; and in that each edge guard is formed with through-going passages which open at the gap and are connected to the interior of the duct so that air may be injected into the gaps between the edge guards and the adjacent grate plates.
- each passage extends to a surface of its edge guard facing the duct where the passage is connected via a respective hole in the duct to the interior of the duct.
- At least some of the passages may open at the underside of the overlapping part of the edge guard but at least some of the ducts may equally well open near to the top of a vertical part of the edge guard which bounds the grate surface.
- the hollow ducts may be built into the side walls of the cooler, in a second embodiment they may be mounted on the side walls between the latter and the edge guards, whereas in a third embodiment they may be mounted resting on transverse beams.
- Fig. 1 shows a cross section through a grate cooler
- Fig. 2 shows a sectional view of a first embodiment of the grate cooler according to the invention
- Fig. 3 shows a sectional view of a second embodiment of the grate cooler according to the invention.
- Fig. 4 shows a sectional view of a third embodiment of the grate cooler according to the invention
- Fig. 1 shows a sectional view of a grate cooler 1 which comprises side walls 3 and a grate bottom or grate surface 5 upon which material 7, to be cooled, is conveyed.
- the grate surface 5 is made up of rows of overlapping grate plates 9, each of which comprises through-going slits or holes, not shown, for injection of cooling air into the material 7 on the grate surface 5.
- the cooling air may, as shown on the drawing, be supplied to the grate plates 9 in groups via an underlying system of air supply ducts 11.
- the grate surface 5 is bounded and overlapped at its longitudinal edges by angular edge guards 13 of L-shaped cross section, which, in the shown embodiment, are fixed directly to the side walls 3 of the cooler.
- Grate coolers are typically designed with a number of rows of grate plates which are capable of reciprocating movement in the longitudinal direction of the cooler, hence providing for a material conveyance through the cooler, and, as a consequence hereof, the guards 13 do not fit closely against the grate plates 9 at the edges of the grate surface, but instead forming in conjunction with these plates fine gaps 15.
- a hollow duct 16 extending in the longitudinal direction of the cooler and being connected to an air supply source, not shown, is mounted at each of the side walls 3 of the cooler and at substantially the same level as the guards 13.
- the guards 13 are formed with throughgoing passages 17, each being connected via a hole 19 in the duct 16 to the interior of the duct and hence the air supply source, and terminating at the gap 15, either at the underside of the overlapping part 21 of the guard or adjacent to the top of the vertical part of the guard 13.
- the gaps 15 can be kept clean of material by injecting air through the passages 17.
- the hollow ducts 16 are built into the side walls 3 of the cooler, in Fig. 3 they are mounted on the side walls 3 between the latter and the edge guards 13, and in Fig. 4 they are mounted resting on transverse beams 23 extending between the side walls 3 of the cooler.
