Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Heizkessel für die Verbrennung von festem Brennstoff, insbesondere für Biomasse, der eine Brennkammer, einen darin angeordneten Boden, eine Brennstoffzuführeinrichtung sowie einen Aschebehälter aufweist.The invention relates to a boiler for the combustion of solid fuel, in particular for biomass, which has a combustion chamber, a bottom arranged therein, a fuel supply device and an ash container.

Aus der DE 198 28 767 A1 ist ein derartiger Heizkessel für die Verbrennung von festem Brennstoff zu entnehmen. Bei der Verbrennung von Biomasse fällt regelmäßig Asche an, welche automatisch aus der Brennkammer entfernt werden muss, um die Verbrennung von frischem Brenngut nicht zu beeinträchtigen. Herkömmlicherweise ist - wie auch in der DE 198 28 767 A1 beschrieben - hierzu der Boden in der Brennkammer mit einem Ascherost versehen, durch den die Asche zunächst in einen Ascheraum fällt. Aus diesem wird die Asche automatisch über eine Transportschnecke in den Aschebehälter gefördert, der von Zeit zu Zeit zu entleeren ist. Bei einem Ascherost besteht bei der Verwendung von inhomogenen, mit Fremdpartikeln versehenen Brenngut die Gefahr, dass derartige Fremdpartikel, beispielsweise Nägel oder Steine, sich verklemmen und unter Umständen zu einer Blockade der Transportschnecke führen und somit den automatischen Ascheaustrag aus dem Ascheraum in den Aschebehälter blockieren. Weiterhin ist von Nachteil, dass noch nicht vollständig verbranntes Brenngut, welches kleiner als die Durchgangsöffnung des Ascherosts ist, in den Ascheraum fällt, so dass nicht vollständig verbranntes Brenngut in den Aschebehälter ausgetragen wird.From the DE 198 28 767 A1 Such a boiler for the combustion of solid fuel can be seen. The incineration of biomass regularly produces ash, which must be automatically removed from the combustion chamber so as not to impair the combustion of fresh fuel. Conventionally - as well as in the DE 198 28 767 A1 described - this provided the bottom in the combustion chamber with an ashtray through which the ash first falls into an ashes. From this, the ashes are conveyed automatically via a transport screw into the ash container, which is to be emptied from time to time. In the case of an ashtray, the use of inhomogeneous, foreign-material-containing firing material entails the risk that such foreign particles, for example nails or stones, become jammed and possibly lead to blockage of the transport screw and thus block the automatic ash discharge from the ash compartment into the ash container. Furthermore, it is disadvantageous that not yet completely burned firing material, which is smaller than the passage opening of the ashtray, falls into the ash space, so that not completely burned firing material is discharged into the ash container.

Aus der WO 92/16791 ist ein weiterer Heizkessel für die Verbrennung von festem Brennstoff bekannt. Dieser Heizkessel weist eine Brennkammer, einen darin angeordneten Boden, eine Brennstoffzuführeinrichtung und einen Aschebehälter auf. Ferner ist eine Ascheaustragungseinrichtung vorgesehen mit mehreren über dem Boden verschieblich angeordneten Austragselementen. Der Boden ist glatt und frei von Durchfallöffnungen für die Asche. Es ist ferner ein hin- und herbeweglicher Ausleger vorgesehen, welcher die Austragselemente auf dem Boden hin- und herbewegt.From the WO 92/16791 Another boiler is known for burning solid fuel. This boiler has a combustion chamber, a bottom disposed therein, a fuel supply device and an ash container. Furthermore, an ash discharge device is provided with a plurality of discharge elements arranged displaceably above the ground. The floor is smooth and free of diarrhea openings for the ashes. There is also provided a reciprocating boom which reciprocates the discharge elements on the ground.

Der Erfindung liegt hiervon ausgehend die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Heizkessel mit verbessertem Antrieb für die Austragungselemente anzugeben.On this basis, the invention is based on the object of specifying a heating boiler with improved drive for the discharge elements.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch einen Heizkessel gemäß Anspruch 1. Danach ist zur Entfernung der Asche aus dem Brennkammerbereich eine Ascheaustragseinrichtung mit zumindest einem Austragselement vorgesehen, welches über den Boden in der Brennkammer verschieblich angeordnet ist. Bei dem Heizkessel wird daher die Asche seitlich über den Brennkammerboden verschoben, auf dem das Brenngut verbrannt wird. Damit ist ein Ascherost nicht notwendig und die mit dem Ascherost verbundenen Nachteile sind überwunden. Ein wesentlicher Vorteil ist daher darin zu sehen, dass die Asche mit Hilfe der Ascheaustragseinrichtung direkt vom Brennkammerboden entfernt wird und unmittelbar dem Aschebehälter zugeführt werden kann. Unter Aschebehälter wird hier jegliches Aufnahmevolumen für die Asche verstanden, welches zur Aufnahme der über das Austragselement zugeführten Asche vorgesehen ist. Der Aschebehälter kann daher im weitesten Sinne auch eine sich an den Boden anschließende weitere Fördereinrichtung sein, beispielsweise ein Fallrohr oder ein Förderband.The object is achieved by a boiler according to claim 1. Thereafter, an ash discharge device is provided with at least one discharge element for removing the ash from the combustion chamber, which is slidably disposed over the bottom in the combustion chamber. In the boiler, therefore, the ash is moved laterally over the bottom of the combustion chamber, on which the fuel is burned. Thus, an ashtray is not necessary and the disadvantages associated with the ashtray have been overcome. A significant advantage is therefore to be seen in the fact that the ash with the aid of the ash discharge device is removed directly from the combustion chamber floor and can be fed directly to the ash container. Under ash container is understood here any receiving volume for the ashes, which is provided for receiving the ash supplied via the discharge element. The ash container can therefore in the broadest sense also be an adjoining the ground further conveyor, such as a downpipe or a conveyor belt.

Der Boden weist eine glatte Oberfläche aufund ist frei von Durchfallöffnungen für Asche. Am Ende des Bodens ist dabei der Aschebehälter unmittelbar angeordnet. Durch die Ausgestaltung des Bodens mit einer glatten Oberfläche ist die Gefahr von Verklemmungen von Fremdkörpern für den Ascheaustrag und damit eine Blockade der Ascheaustragseinrichtung vermieden. Der glatte Boden ermöglicht ein einfaches Schieben der Asche zum Aschebehälter hin.The soil has a smooth surface and is free of ashes for ashes. At the end of the soil while the ash container is arranged directly. The design of the floor with a smooth surface avoids the risk of jamming of foreign bodies for the ash discharge and thus a blockage of the ash discharge device. The smooth bottom allows easy sliding of the ash to the ash container.

Um einen möglichst störungsfreien Betrieb zu ermöglichen, ist zur Verschiebung des zumindest einen Austragselements eine umlaufende Förderkette vorgesehen, an der das zumindest eine Austragselement befestigt ist. Die Förderkette ist hierbei elektromotorisch antreibbar. Durch die Ausgestaltung als Förderkette ist die gesamte Ascheaustragseinrichtung sehr robust und damit ausfallsicher.In order to enable trouble-free operation as far as possible, a circulating conveyor chain is provided for displacing the at least one discharge element, to which the at least one discharge element is attached. The conveyor chain can be driven by an electric motor. Due to the design as a conveyor chain, the entire ash discharge device is very robust and thus failsafe.

Der Boden ist im Querschnitt muldenartig ausgebildet und das Austragselement ist an den muldenartigen Querschnitt angepasst. Durch den muldenartigen Querschnitt sammelt sich die Asche zentral am Tiefpunkt der Mulde an. Durch die angepasste Geometrie des Austragselements, also insbesondere eine an den muldenartigen Querschnitt angepasste Wölbung, wird die sich ansammelnde Asche weitgehend vollständig über den Boden hinweggeschoben.The bottom is formed trough-like in cross-section and the discharge element is adapted to the trough-like cross-section. Due to the trough-like cross-section, the ash collects centrally at the bottom of the trough. Due to the adapted geometry of the discharge element, ie in particular a curvature adapted to the trough-like cross-section, the accumulating ash is pushed largely completely over the ground.

Um einen möglichst kontinuierlichen Ascheaustrag zu gewährleisten, tritt der Boden zweckdienlicherweise seitlich aus der Brennkammer aus und erstreckt sich durchgehend bis zum Aschebehälter hin. Der Boden bildet damit einen sich im Wesentlichen durch den gesamten Kessel erstreckenden Kesselboden, wobei ein Teilstück dieses Kesselbodens zugleich der Boden der Brennkammer ist.To ensure the most continuous ash discharge, the soil expediently emerges laterally from the combustion chamber and extends continuously to the ash container. The bottom thus forms an essentially through the entire boiler extending bottom of the boiler, with a portion of this bottom of the boiler is also the bottom of the combustion chamber.

Vorzugsweise ist hierbei vorgesehen, dass sich die Ascheaustragseinrichtung über den gesamten Boden erstreckt, um zuverlässig die Asche zum Aschebehälter hin zu fördern.Preferably, it is provided in this case that the ash discharge device extends over the entire bottom in order to reliably convey the ash to the ash container.

Vorzugsweise sind mehrere voneinander beabstandete Austragselemente vorgesehen. Durch die in Längsrichtung des Bodens in Abstand zueinander aneinandergereihten Austragselemente sind zwischen zwei aufeinander folgenden Austragselementen Brenngut-Kammern gebildet, die quasi einzelne "Chargen" bilden. Durch die Wahl der Abstände der Austragselemente zueinander kann hierbei die Größe der einzelnen "Chargen" eingestellt werden. Der Abstand zwischen zwei aufeinander folgenden Austragselementen ist dabei größer als die durchschnittliche Brenngut-Größe und insbesondere größer als eventuell zu erwartende Fremdkörper. Das Brenngut fällt also zwischen die Austragselemente auf den Boden.Preferably, a plurality of spaced-apart discharge elements are provided. By in the longitudinal direction of the soil in spaced juxtaposed discharge elements between two successive discharge elements kiln chambers are formed, which form quasi individual "batches". By choosing the distances of the discharge elements to each other in this case the size of the individual "batches" can be adjusted. The distance between two successive Austragselementen is greater than the average kiln size and in particular larger than possibly expected Foreign body. The firing material thus falls between the discharge elements on the ground.

Gemäß einer zweckdienlichen Weiterbildung ist eine Steuerung vorgesehen, über die die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit des Austragselements einstellbar bzw. steuer- oder regulierbar ist. Die Steuerung ist hierbei insbesondere derart ausgebildet, dass das Austragselement kontinuierlich oder diskontinuierlich über den Boden verschoben werden kann. Auch ist ein Vor- und Rücklauf möglich, so dass eventuell auftretende Verklemmungen oder dergleichen durch einen Reverserbetrieb behoben werden können. Auch kann durch gezielten Vor- und Rücklauf eine Homogenisierung oder Vermischung des Brennguts erzielt werden.According to an expedient development, a control is provided, via which the feed rate of the discharge element can be adjusted or controlled or regulated. The control is in this case designed in particular such that the discharge element can be moved continuously or discontinuously over the ground. Also, a flow and return is possible, so that any jamming or the like can be remedied by a reverse operation. Also can be achieved by targeted flow and return a homogenization or mixing of the combustible.

Zweckdienlicherweise ist hierbei vorgesehen, dass über die Steuerung die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit und damit die Verweildauer des Brennguts in der Brennkammer eingestellt wird. Insbesondere wird die Einstellung hierbei Brennstoff oder Brenngut-abhängig vorgenommen. Durch diese Maßnahme lässt sich der Heizkessel daher problemlos mit unterschiedlichsten Biomasse-Brennstoffen effizient betreiben. Vorzugsweise erfolgt die Steuerung der Verweildauer hierbei automatisch. Hierzu ist insbesondere eine Überwachung oder eine Messeinrichtung zur Ermittlung des Verbrennungsgrads vorgesehen. Zweckdienlicherweise wird daher die Vorschubgeschwindigkeit in Abhängigkeit des Verbrennungsgrads reguliert.Conveniently, it is provided that the feed rate and thus the residence time of the combustible material in the combustion chamber is adjusted via the controller. In particular, the setting is made here fuel or Brenngut-dependent. By this measure, the boiler can therefore be operated easily with a variety of biomass fuels efficiently. Preferably, the control of the residence time takes place here automatically. For this purpose, in particular a monitoring or a measuring device for determining the degree of combustion is provided. Conveniently, therefore, the feed rate is regulated depending on the degree of combustion.

Zweckdienlicherweise ist hierbei das Austragselement als eine Transportschaufel und insbesondere nach Art einer Pflugschaufel ausgebildet. Die Schaufel erstreckt sich im Wesentlichen quer zur Längserstreckung des Bodens und überdeckt somit zumindest den zentralen Teilbereich des Bodens. Insbesondere durch die Ausgestaltung als Pflugschaufel mit einer zentralen nach vorne in Förderrichtung gerichteten Pflugspitze und seitlich hierzu angeordneten Schaufeln ist ein möglichst verschleißarmer und wartungsfreier Betrieb erzielt.Conveniently, in this case the discharge element is designed as a transporting scoop and in particular in the manner of a plow blade. The blade extends substantially transversely to the longitudinal extent of the soil and thus covers at least the central portion of the soil. In particular, by the design as a plow blade with a central forward in the conveying direction plow tip and laterally arranged therefrom blades as low as possible and maintenance-free operation is achieved.

Vorzugsweise ist der Boden wassergekühlt. Durch die Wasserkühlung wird insgesamt eine ausreichend geringe Temperatur der Asche beispielsweise im Bereich zwischen 80 und 90°C erzielt. Durch diese Kühlung wird verhindert, dass die bei der Verbrennung entstehende Schlacke anbackt oder anklebt und dadurch den Ascheaustrag behindert.Preferably, the soil is water cooled. As a result of the water cooling, a sufficiently low temperature of the ashes, for example in the range between 80 and 90 ° C., is achieved overall. This cooling prevents the slag formed during combustion from caking or sticking, thereby hindering the ash discharge.

Nachfolgend werden im Wesentlichen lediglich die für die Ascheaustragseinrichtung relevanten Teile beschrieben.In the figures, the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals. In the following, essentially only the parts relevant for the ash discharge device will be described.

Der in den Fig. 1 bis 3 dargestellte Heizkessel 2 ist zur Verfeuerung von festem Brennstoff, insbesondere von Biomasse vorgesehen. Der Heizkessel 2 - auch als Holzfeuerungsautomat bezeichnet - ist hierbei zur Verbrennung von verschiedensten Arten von Biomasse ausgebildet, wie beispielsweise Sägespäne, Hobelspäne, Hackgut, Industriehackgut, Holzpellets, Holzbriketts, Strohbriketts, Getreide, Gräser etc. Der Heizkessel 2 ist beispielsweise als zentraler Heizkessel für Ein- oder Mehrfamilienhäuser vorgesehen und weist für diesen Fall beispielsweise eine auf etwa 14 kW begrenzte Heizleistung auf. Grundsätzlich lässt sich mit dem Heizkessel 2 auch ein wesentlich höherer Wärmebedarf befriedigen. Unter Beibehaltung des prinzipiellen Aufbaus des Heizkessels 2 ist dieser beispielsweise für eine Heizleistung bis zu 850 kW ausgelegt.The in the Fig. 1 to 3 illustrated boiler 2 is provided for burning solid fuel, in particular biomass. The boiler 2 - also called wood automatic burner - is hereby designed for the combustion of various types of biomass, such as sawdust, wood shavings, wood chips, industrial wood chips, wood pellets, wood briquettes, straw briquettes, cereals, grasses, etc. The boiler 2, for example, as a central heating boiler One or multi-family homes provided and has for this case, for example, a limited to about 14 kW heating power. Basically, the boiler 2 can satisfy a much higher heat demand. While maintaining the basic structure of the boiler 2, this is designed for example for a heating power up to 850 kW.

Der Heizkessel 2 weist eine Brennkammer 4 auf, der über eine Brennstoffzuführeinrichtung 6 der Brennstoff oder das Brenngut seitlich zuführbar ist. Die Brennstoffzuführeinrichtung 6 ist im Ausführungsbeispiel als eine Förderschnecke ausgebildet. Der Heizkessel 2 weist einen Kesselboden 8 auf, der sich durch den ganzen Heizkessel 2 erstreckt und zugleich den Boden der Brennkammer 4 bildet. Der Boden 8 ist in Längsrichtung des Heizkessels 2 ausgerichtet und verlässt die Brennkammer 4 an einer Seitenwand der Brennkammer 4, die gegenüberliegend zu einer Öffnung angeordnet ist, über die mittels der Brennstoffzuführeinrichtung 6 das Brenngut zugeführt wird. Die Brennkammer 4 erstreckt sich - wie insbesondere anhand der in Fig. 3 schraffiert dargestellten Brennkammerwand 4a zu entnehmen ist - im Ausführungsbeispiel etwa über die Hälfte bis 2/3 des Kesselinnenraums.The boiler 2 has a combustion chamber 4, via a fuel supply 6, the fuel or the fuel is fed laterally. The fuel supply device 6 is formed in the embodiment as a screw conveyor. The boiler 2 has a boiler bottom 8 which extends through the entire boiler 2 and at the same time forms the bottom of the combustion chamber 4. The bottom 8 is aligned in the longitudinal direction of the boiler 2 and leaves the combustion chamber 4 on a side wall of the combustion chamber 4, which is arranged opposite to an opening through which the fuel is supplied by the fuel supply means 6. The combustion chamber 4 extends - as in particular with reference to the in Fig. 3 can be seen hatched illustrated combustion chamber wall 4a - in the embodiment, about half to 2/3 of the boiler interior.

An der der Brennstoffzuführeinrichtung 6 gegenüberliegenden Stirnseite des Heizkessels 2 ist ein Aschebehälter 10 angeordnet. Fig. 1 zeigt die Ansicht auf diese Stirnseite. Aus dieser Darstellung ist zu entnehmen, dass der Kesselinnenraum durch eine Trommel 12 gebildet ist. Über eine stirnseitig angeordnete Tür 14 oder Klappe kann die Trommel 12 inspiziert werden. In Fig. 1 sind weiterhin Wasseranschlüsse 16 für das zu erwärmende Wasser dargestellt. Dieses dient zugleich zur Kühlung des Bodens 8.At the fuel supply 6 opposite end face of the boiler 2, an ash container 10 is arranged. Fig. 1 shows the view on this front side. From this representation it can be seen that the boiler interior is formed by a drum 12. The drum 12 can be inspected via a frontally arranged door 14 or flap. In Fig. 1 Furthermore, water connections 16 for the water to be heated are shown. This also serves to cool the bottom. 8

Der sich über den gesamten Heizkessel 2 erstreckende Boden 8 weist eine glatte Oberfläche auf und hat keinerlei Durchfallöffnungen für die anfallende Asche. Er erstreckt sich durchgehend von der Brennkammer 4 bis zu dem Aschebehälter 10.The over the entire boiler 2 extending bottom 8 has a smooth surface and has no diarrhea openings for the resulting ash. It extends continuously from the combustion chamber 4 to the ash container 10th

Zum Ascheaustrag ist eine Ascheaustragseinrichtung vorgesehen, welche eine mittig über den Boden 8 laufende Förderkette 18 umfasst, an der in vorzugsweise gleichmäßigen Abständen insbesondere nach Art von Pflugschaufeln ausgebildete Transportschaufeln 20 befestigt sind. Die Förderkette 18 ist um zwei Rollen 22 oder Walzen umlaufend einmal oberhalb des Bodens 8 und einmal unterhalb des Bodens 8 geführt. Die eine Rolle 22 dient hierbei als Antriebsrolle, die von einem Elektromotor 24 angetrieben wird.For the ash discharge, an ash discharge device is provided, which comprises a conveyor chain 18 running centrally above the bottom 8, on which transport blades 20, which are formed at preferably uniform intervals, in particular in the manner of plow blades, are fastened. The conveyor chain 18 is guided around two rollers 22 or rollers circumferentially once above the bottom 8 and once below the bottom 8. The one roller 22 serves as a drive roller, which is driven by an electric motor 24.

Die Transportschaufeln 20 sind dabei derart angeordnet, dass sie auf dem Boden 8 entlang gleiten und dadurch Asche, die sich auf dem Boden 8 befindet, vor sich herschieben.The transport blades 20 are arranged such that they slide along the floor 8 and thereby push ash, which is located on the floor 8, in front of him.

Wie aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich ist, ist der Boden 8 wannenartig gewölbt ausgebildet. Die Asche wird sich daher im mittleren zentralen Bereich ansammeln. Die Transportschaufeln 20 erstrecken sich über einen zentralen Teilbereich des Bodens 8. Weiterhin sind sie zweckdienlicherweise entsprechend der Geometrie des Bodens 8 ausgebildet. D.h. die dem Boden 8 zugewandte Seite der Transportschaufeln 20 weist die gleiche Krümmung wie der Boden 8 auf.How out Fig. 1 can be seen, the bottom 8 is formed like a trough curved. The ash will therefore accumulate in the central central area. The transport blades 20 extend over a central portion of the bottom 8. Furthermore, they are expediently formed according to the geometry of the bottom 8. That is, the bottom 8 facing side of the transport blades 20 has the same curvature as the bottom 8.

Beim Betrieb des Heizkessels 2 wird der Brennkammer 4 über die Brennstoffzuführeinrichtung 6 Brenngut zugeführt, welches direkt auf den Boden 8 fällt. Nach der Zündung des Brennguts über eine Zündeinrichtung 26 verbrennt das Brenngut auf dem Boden 8. Zur Unterstützung einer gezielten Verbrennung wird hier üblicherweise von der Seite Luft in die Brennkammer 4 eingeblasen. Prinzipiell besteht auch die Möglichkeit, durch den Boden über kleine Luftöffnungen Luft unmittelbar in die Glut des Brennguts einzublasen.During operation of the boiler 2, the combustion chamber 4 is fed via the fuel supply means 6 kiln, which falls directly to the bottom 8. After the ignition of the combustible material via an ignition device 26, the combustible material burns on the bottom 8. To support a targeted combustion is here usually blown air from the side into the combustion chamber 4. In principle, it is also possible to inject air directly into the embers of the fuel through the air via small air openings.

Mit Hilfe der Förderkette 18 und den Transportschaufeln 20 wird nunmehr das Brenngut kontinuierlich oder auch diskontinuierlich in Längsrichtung des Bodens 8 in Richtung zum Aschebehälter 10 weitergefördert. Zwischen den aufeinander folgenden Transportschaufeln 20 sind daher quasi Brenngut-Chargen gebildet. Unmittelbar im Bereich der Brennzuführeinrichtung 6 sind die Chargen nahezu unverbrannt, wohingegen die weiter nach vorne orientierten Chargen einen zunehmend höheren Verbrennungsgrad aufweisen. Die Fördergeschwindigkeit, also die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit der Transportkette 18 ist dabei derart eingestellt, dass das Brenngut beim Austritt aus der Brennkammer 4 vollständig verbrannt ist. Zweckdienlicherweise wird hier der Verbrennungsgrad automatisch überwacht. In Abhängigkeit des Verbrennungsgrads wird die Fördergeschwindigkeit der Transportkette 18 und damit die Verweildauer des Brennguts in der Brennkammer 4 geregelt. Alternativ hierzu wird die Fördergeschwindigkeit manuell oder halbautomatisch, beispielsweise in Abhängigkeit einer gewählten Brennstoffart eingestellt.With the help of the conveyor chain 18 and the transport blades 20 now the firing material is conveyed continuously or discontinuously in the longitudinal direction of the bottom 8 in the direction of the ash container 10. Between the successive transport blades 20 quasi firing batches are therefore formed. Immediately in the area of the Brennzuführeinrichtung 6, the batches are almost unburned, whereas the more forward oriented batches have an increasingly higher degree of combustion. The conveying speed, that is to say the rotational speed of the transport chain 18, is set in such a way that the firing material is completely burnt when it leaves the combustion chamber 4. Conveniently, the degree of combustion is automatically monitored here. Depending on the degree of combustion, the conveying speed of the conveyor chain 18 and thus the residence time of the combustible material in the combustion chamber 4 is controlled. Alternatively, the conveying speed is set manually or semi-automatically, for example as a function of a selected type of fuel.

Zweckdienlicherweise ist weiterhin eine Überwachungseinrichtung vorgesehen, über die die notwendige Förderkraft für den Weitertransport der Transportschaufeln 20 überwacht wird, um eventuelle Verklemmungen oder Verstopfungen rechtzeitig automatisch zu erkennen. Eine derartige Überwachungseinrichtung ist beispielsweise eine Drehmomentüberwachung am Elektromotor 24. Sobald ein vorgegebenes Drehmoment übertroffen wird, wird dies als eine Störung erfasst und die Transportkette 18 wird im Reverserbetrieb gefahren, das heißt sie wird mehrfach vor- und zurückbewegt, bis sich die Verklemmung wieder gelöst hat.Expediently, a monitoring device is furthermore provided, by means of which the necessary conveying force for the further transport of the transporting vanes 20 is monitored, in order to automatically recognize possible jamming or blockages in good time. Such a monitoring device is, for example, a torque monitoring on the electric motor 24. As soon as a predetermined torque is exceeded, this is detected as a fault and the transport chain 18 is driven in reverse operation, that is, it is repeatedly moved back and forth until the jamming has loosened again ,

Der Boden 8 ist insbesondere als kühlbarer Doppelboden ausgebildet, durch den das zu erwärmende Wasser fließt. Durch diese Maßnahme wird gewährleistet, dass die Temperatur am Boden insbesondere auf etwa 80 bis 90° begrenzt ist, so dass sich keine Verbackungen ausbilden, die den Weitertransport behindern könnten. Insbesondere wird dadurch auch die Temperaturbelastung der Transportkette 18 und der Transportschaufeln 20, die in der Brennkammer 4 unmittelbar dem Brenngut ausgesetzt sind, gering gehalten.The bottom 8 is designed in particular as a coolable double bottom through which the water to be heated flows. By this measure it is ensured that the temperature at the bottom is limited in particular to about 80 to 90 °, so that no caking form, which hinder the further transport could. In particular, thereby the temperature load of the transport chain 18 and the transport blades 20, which are exposed directly to the kiln in the combustion chamber 4, kept low.

Ein wesentlicher Vorteil dieses neuartigen Heizkessels 2 ist darin zu sehen, dass auf einen Ascherost, insbesondere auch auf einen Bandkettenrost oder Schubrost verzichtet wird, so dass keine Gefahr einer Verklemmung von Fremdkörpern besteht. Vielmehr wird mit Hilfe der Transportschaufeln 20 die Asche über den mit einer glatten Oberfläche versehenen Boden 8 unmittelbar zum Aschebehälter 10 geschoben. Durch den zusätzlich möglichen Reverserbetrieb ist ein störungsfreier und automatischer Ascheaustrag erzielt. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist darin zu sehen, dass über die Fördergeschwindigkeit, also die Umlaufgeschwindigkeit der Transportkette 18, die Verweildauer des Brennguts problemlos einstellbar ist, so dass eine optimale Verbrennung auch von unterschiedlichen Biomasse-Brenngut problemlos erreicht wird. Der als Brennmulde ausgebildete Boden 8 erlaubt also die Verbrennung von unterschiedlichsten Biomasse-Brennstoffen. Die Ausführung mit der Transportkette 18 und den daran angeordneten, insbesondere angeschweißten Transportschaufeln 20 ist sehr robust und damit wartungsarm.A significant advantage of this novel boiler 2 is the fact that it is dispensed with an ashtray, in particular on a belt chain rust or push grate so that there is no danger of jamming of foreign bodies. Rather, with the help of the transport blades 20, the ash is pushed over the smooth surface with a surface 8 directly to the ash container 10. Due to the additional possible reverse operation, a trouble-free and automatic ash discharge is achieved. Another advantage is the fact that on the conveying speed, ie the rotational speed of the transport chain 18, the residence time of the combustible material is easily adjustable, so that optimal combustion is achieved by different biomass fuel easily. Trained as a combustion bowl bottom 8 thus allows the combustion of different biomass fuels. The embodiment with the transport chain 18 and arranged thereon, in particular welded transport blades 20 is very robust and thus low maintenance.
