The present invention relates to an apparatus for dispersing and flattening transportation coals in a coal dryer using reheat steam and, more particularly, to an apparatus that reduces loads of piles of coals that are input from a fixed quantity coal supplier via a pulverizer to a multi-stage dryer and are transferred, and uniformly disperses and flattens the piles of the coals, thereby improving drying efficiency, in the multi-stage dryer that dries coals using reheat steam.
In general, in a thermal power plant that generates power by using coal as fuel, coals of approximately 180 ton/hr per 500 MW are combusted, and each pulverizer supplies coals of approximately 37 ton to a boiler. In a thermal power plant of 500 MW which uses coal, approximately six coal storage silos each having a capacity of approximately 500 ton are installed. Five of them are for normally supplying coals and the other one is operated as a coal storage silo that preliminarily stores coal that may be used for a predetermined period of time.
In addition, in the thermal power plant that generates power by using coal as fuel, the standard thermal power design criterion for coal is designed to use a low moisture bituminous coal of 6,080 Kcal/Kg and 10% or less. In some thermal power plants, imported coals are used. Among the imported coal, some sub-bituminous coals has an average moisture water content of 17% or more, so that combustion efficiency of the boiler is reduced. When the standard thermal power combustion limit is 5,400 Kcal/Kg and a caloric value of the coals is low, a reduction in a power generation amount and an increase in a fuel consumption amount are predicted due to a reduction in the combustion efficiency. In addition, when sub-bituminous coals which are high-moisture low caloric coals are used, a moisture content thereof is higher than a design reference, so that a transfer system that carries the coals may not be smoothly operated, efficiency when the coals are pulverized by the pulverizer may be reduced, combustion efficiency may be reduced due to partial incomplete combustion, and windage of distribution of heat generated in the boiler an abnormal operation may occur. However, in the thermal power plant, to reduce fuel costs, a usage ratio of sub-bituminous coals has been gradually increased to approximately 41-60%.
Further, because the global economic recovery is expected and safety issues of a nuclear power plant are faced due to destruction of a nuclear power plant resulting from a Japanese huge earthquake, preference of the thermal power plant becomes high, and thus, it is predicted that demands and prices of the coals are consistently increased. An environment of the world coal market is changed from a customer-centered environment to a supplier-centered environment, and thus, stable supply and demand of coals is different. Further, it is predicted that a production volume of high caloric coals is maintained at a current level, and thus, unbalance of the supply and demand of the coals is predicted.
Although a ratio of low caloric coals among the total deposits of the world's coals is approximately 47%, the low caloric coals have low caloric values and high moisture contents, and thus, the high-moisture low caloric coals have difficulty in complete combustion, for example, a combustion failure during combustion. Accordingly, the low caloric coals are ignored in the market. Globally, until recent years, there has been a high tendency of relying on stable petroleum prices and low production unit prices of the nuclear power plant. However, in recent years, a lot of constructions of the thermal power plants that use coals are planed due to a sharp rise in petroleum prices and a sense of insecurity to the nuclear power generation.
As the conventional technology of drying coals (thermal drying), a rotary drying scheme of drying internal coal particles using high temperature gas while a cylindrical shell into which coals are input is rotated, a flash pneumatic drying scheme of drying coals by raising high-temperature drying gas from below to top while coals are supplied from top to below, and a fluid-bed drying scheme of drying coals by upward raising high-temperature drying gas with fine particles are mainly used.
Moisture of the coals is classified into surface moisture that is attached to pores between coal particles and bound moisture that is coupled to pores inside the coals. Most of the surface moisture is moisture that is sprayed during a washing process in a producing area, transportation and storing, and an amount of the surface moisture is determined based on a surface area and absorptivity. Further, as particles becomes smaller, the surface area becomes larger and capillary tubes between the particles are formed, so that moisture is contained in the coals, and thus, a moisture content is increased. The bound moisture is formed at a creation time of the coals, and bound moistures of brown coal, soft coal (bituminous coal and sub-bituminous coal) and anthracite coal are smaller in the sequence of the brown coal, the soft coal (bituminous coal and sub-bituminous coal) and the anthracite coal. When a large amount of moisture is included in coals, caloric values are reduced and transportation costs are increased, so that it is required to control moisture during processes of mixing, pulverizing and separating coals.
In addition, a problem occurs in that moisture included in coals cannot be effectively dried even by spraying reheat steam in a state in which input coals are not uniformly dispersed, in an apparatus for drying coals by spraying high-temperature reheat steam below a dryer while the pulverized coals are transferred through a multi-stage dryer, that is, a conveyor having a plurality of through-holes formed therein through which reheat steam passes or a plurality of transfer plates that are coupled to each other. Accordingly, problems occur in that stages or lengths of the dryer for drying coals should be enlarged, a supply amount of the reheat steam for drying should be increased, and thus, costs and times according to drying of coals are increased.
Korean Patent No. 10-0960793 as the prior art related to the present invention discloses that a low grade coal stabilizer includes a wave-type vibration flow plate for uniform mixing with heavy oil ash powders that are input into primarily dried low grade coal to improve drying efficiency. The vibration flow plate, which uniformly mixes the low grade coal and the heavy oil ash powders with each other, has an inherent problem in that because drying steam for drying coals is not uniformly sprayed onto surfaces of the coals, drying efficiency may be reduced.
The present invention is conceived to solve the above-described problems, and an aspect of the present invention is to effectively dry coals by reheat steam that is sprayed to the coals, by reducing loads and, at the same time, uniformly dispersing and flatly transferring the coals while piles of the coals input into a dryer pass through a multi-stage pulverizer, in an apparatus that dries coals by using reheat steam while the coal used as fuel of the thermal power plant is transferred to a dryer.
Further, another aspect of the present invention is to reduce a use amount of fuel by improving combustion efficiency of a boiler of a thermal power plant by increasing a caloric value of coals by maintaining a proper water content due to effective drying of the coals.
Further, yet another aspect of the present invention is to provide a drying technology that may prevent an environment problem resulting from incomplete combustion of coals by adjusting moisture contained in the coals and a technology that may be applied to a thermal power plant.

Thus, the dispersion boss 7 that protrudes from a lower edge of the division boss 3 of the flatter 1 corresponds to a three-dimensional portion that is formed by contacting the first intersection point b1 in which the second intersection line a2 and the third intersection line a3 meet each other, the second intersection point b2 in which the second intersection line a2 and the fourth intersection line a4 meet each other, the third intersection point b3 in which the fourth intersection line a4 and the fifth intersection line a5 meet each other and the fourth intersection point b4 in which the third intersection line a3 and the fifth intersection line a5 meet each other.
Coals C that are input onto surfaces of the first transfer plates 114 and the second transfer plates 144 of the coal dryer are flattened as the coals are divided into left and right sides while passing through the division boss 3 of the transportation coal flattener 1 and the divided coals are uniformly dispersed along the dispersion boss 7 and are then flattened while passing through the flat body 2. In addition, the coals C that are input or fall onto the first transfer plates 114 and the second transfer plates 144 are stacked approximately in an arc shape. Here, the coals C that are stacked in an arc shape have a density that is high on a center thereof and becomes lower as it goes to front, rear, left and right sides. Thus, when the transferred coals C comes into contact with the division boss 3 and the edge 8 of the dispersion boss 7, a center of the coals C is divided into opposite left and right sides so that coal particles are dispersed. Further, the dispersion boss 7 more uniformly disperses the coal particles to make a density of the piles of the coals more uniform. The coals C that are dispersed in this way are flatly arranged on surfaces of the first transfer plates 114 and the second transfer plates 144, which face an upper side, by passing through the transportation coal flattener 1.

The dispersion boss 7 has the edge 8 that protrudes from the front side of the lower edge of the division boss 12 and the blade 9 that protrudes from the edge 8 to opposite side surfaces of the lower edge of the division boss 12. Inclined surfaces having a specific slope, which become wider as they go from the edge 8 to the blade 9 of the dispersion boss 7, are formed. The dispersion boss 7 crosses a central portion of the piles of the coals that are transferred by the transportation device, by the edge 8, to divide the central portion having a high density. The dispersion boss 7 allows coals, which flow down after the piles of the coals divided by an edge 11 and the division boss 12 are dispersed into opposite sides along the division boss 12, to flow down to front sides of the inclined surfaces on opposite sides so as to disperse the piles of the coals at a uniform density and uniformly spread the piles of the coals on a surface of the transportation device.

The dispersion flatteners are classified into the first dispersion flattener 1010 and the second dispersion flattener 1020 and the first dispersion flattener 1010 and the second dispersion flattener 1020 are installed on the first transfer plates 114 at a specific interval.
In
Opposite ends of the body 1031 having the division boss 1032 that protrudes therefrom are fixedly supported by the pair of fixing members 1033 that are fixed to one side of the transportation device. In addition, flatteners 1030 is are installed on the transportation device at a specific interval. Further, the flattener 1030 flattens the piles of the coals, which are transferred by the transportation device, at a specific height, and thus, allows reheat steam sprayed while passing through the transportation device to uniformly come into contact with surfaces of the coal particles.
Pair of transportation coal guide plates 1040 and 1050 are installed toward insides of the first transfer plates 144 at a specific angle such that the piles of the coals that are transferred on surfaces of the first transfer plates 114 are collected on insides, that is, central portion of the surfaces of the first transfer plates 114. The first transportation coal guide plates 1040 are installed between the first dispersion flattener 1010 and the second dispersion flattener 1020, that is, on a rear side of the first dispersion flattener 1010, and the second transportation coal guide plates 1050 are installed between the second dispersion flattener 1020 and the flattener 1030, that is, on a rear side of the second dispersion flattener 1020. The first transportation coal guide plates 1040 and the second transportation coal guide plates 1050 are installed toward the insides of the first transfer plates 114 at a specific angle such that a length of the first transportation coal guide plates 1040 is larger than a length of the second transportation coal guide plate 1050 or an installation angle of the first transportation coal guide plates 1040, which corresponds to a transfer direction of piles of coals, is larger than an installation angle of the second transportation coal guide plates 1050. Upper ends of the first transportation coal guide plates 1040 and the second transportation coal guide plates 1050 are fixedly supported by support members 1041 and 1051 fixed to the first guide rails 115, respectively.
Further, it is also preferred that a pair of transportation coal guide plates are installed in front of the first dispersion flattener 1010 so that flow of the transferred piles of the coals is collected to inner sides of the surfaces of the first transfer plates 114.
Further, in
The dispersion boss 1060 has the edge 1061 that protrudes from the front side of the lower edge of the division boss 1012 and the blade 1062 that protrudes from the edge 1061 to opposite side surfaces of the lower edge of the division boss 1012. Inclined surfaces having a specific slope, which become wider as they go from the edge 1061 to the blade 1062 of the dispersion boss 1060, are formed. The dispersion boss 1060 crosses a central portion of the piles of the coals that are transferred by the transportation device, by the edge 1061, to divide the central portion having a high density. The dispersion boss 1060 allows coals, which flow down after the piles of the coals divided by the edge 1011 and the division boss 1012 are dispersed into opposite sides along the division boss 1012, to flow down to front sides of the inclined surfaces on opposite sides so as to disperse the piles of the coals at a uniform density and uniformly spread the piles of the coals on a surface of the transportation device.

In addition, the sorter 2010 performs sorting that horizontally disperses the density of piles of coals that are transferred on the surfaces of the first transfer plates 114, which face an upper side, and uniformly equalizes the density. One or more sorters 2010 may be installed at a specific interval.
In
Further, a flattening member 2016 having elasticity is coupled to a longitudinal cross-section of the lowering plate 2012 of the sorter 2010. The flattening member 2016 may be formed of a material having elasticity such as synthetic resin and rubber to flatten irregularly transferred coals.
In
When a bottom surface of the rising plate 2011 or a bottom surface of the lowering plate 2012 of the sorter 2010 is installed almost adjacent to the surfaces of the first transfer plates 114, the piles of the coals C that transferred by the first transfer plates 114 are not united by passing through the sorter 2010 and are thus transferred in a state in which loads or a density of the piles of the coals C are dispersed and equalized. Thus, the sorter 2010 uniformly mixes the transferred piles of the coals C, thereby maximizing drying efficiency.

The sorter 3010 has the same structure as that of
Thus, in
In
Further, the first flattener 3030 further disperses and flattens the piles of the coals C that have passed through the first sorter 3010. Here, the flattener 3030 disperses and flattens the piles of the coals C at a position of a bottom surface that is further lower than the first sorter 3010. Thus, the piles of the coals C that have passed through the first flattener 3030 are transferred while being uniformly dispersed and distributed on the surfaces of the first transfer plates 114 with few change in the density thereof at approximately the same thickness.
The piles of the coals C that have passed through the first flattener 3030 are horizontally separated while passing through a lower portion of a rising plate 3021 of the second sorter 3020. The separated piles of the coals C are raised along the surface of the rising plate 3021. The piles of the coals C that are raised to the surface of the rising plate 3021 are introduced to a lower side of the rising plate 3021 through first through-holes 3023 or climb over the rising plate 3021 to be transferred to the surface of the lowering plate 3022. Further, the piles of the coals C that are lowered to the surface of the lowering plate 3022 are introduced to a lower side of the lowering plate 3022 through the second through-holes 3024 or are input onto piles of coals C that pass by the surface of the lowering plate 3022 and pass through a bottom surface of the lowering plate 3022. Further, a brush 3027 vertically installed on the bottom surface of the second sorter 3020 uniformly disperses surfaces of the piles of the coals C that pass by the rising plate 3021 or pass through the first through-holes 3023, to form a peak and a valley. The piles of the coals C that transferred by the first transfer plates 114 are not united by passing through the second sorter 3020 and are thus transferred in a state in which loads or a density of the piles of the coals C are dispersed and equalized. Thus, the second sorter 3020 uniformly mixes the transferred piles of the coals C, thereby maximizing drying efficiency.
Further, the second flattener 3040 further disperses and flattens the piles of the coals C that have passed through the second sorter 3020. Here, the second flattener 3040 disperses and flattens the piles of the coals C at a position of a bottom surface that is further lower than the second sorter 3020. Thus, the piles of the coals C that have passed through the first flattener 3040 are transferred while being uniformly dispersed and distributed on the surfaces of the first transfer plates 114 with few change in the density thereof approximately at the same thickness.
The piles of the coals C transferred on the surfaces of the first transfer plates 114 are repeatedly mixed up, dispersed and flattened while passing through the first sorter 3010, the first flattener 3030, the second sorter 3020 and the second flattener 3040 so that loads of the piles of the coals C that are transferred while neither being biased to any one side nor having irregular heights are uniformly dispersed so as not to be biased to any one side and are flattened to become gradually lower at a specific height interval. Thus, the reheat steam sprayed while passing through the first transfer plates 114 uniformly comes into contact with surfaces of coal particles, thereby more effectively drying the coals.

The first divider 4070 has a plurality of first division bosses 4072 horizontally spaced apart from each other at a specific interval to protrude from a lower portion of an approximately rectangular body 4071. It is preferred that each first division boss 4072 has a triangular edge formed on a front side thereof to easily divide the piles of the coals. Further, passages through which the coals divided by the first division bosses 4072 pass are formed between the first division bosses 4072. Further, it is preferred that the first division bosses 4072 are installed to be in contact with the surface of the first upper transfer plates 114 or to have fine spacing therebetween. This enables lower ends of the first division bosses 4072 to separate coals stuck to the surface of the first upper transfer plates 114 that transfers the piles of the coals so that the surface of the first upper transfer plates 114 may always be maintained clean and flat. It is preferred that the first divider 4070 may be fixed to a side surface of the first flue gas chamber 124 by a fixing member.
Further, the second divider 4075 is installed on a rear side of the first divider 4070 to be spaced apart therefrom at a specific interval. The second divider 4075 has a plurality of second division bosses 4077 horizontally spaced apart from each other at a specific interval to protrude from a lower portion of an approximately rectangular body 4076. It is preferred that each second division boss 4077 has a triangular edge formed on a front side thereof to easily divide the piles of the coals. Further, passages through which the coals divided by the second division bosses 4077 pass are formed between the first division bosses 4077. It is preferred that the second division bosses 4077 that protrude from the body 4076 are located between the first division bosses 4072 of the first divider 4070, that is, at a location where the passages are formed. This may enable the second division bosses 4077 to divide the piles of the coals that are transferred while being collected in the passages of the first division bosses 4072, the first division bosses 4072. Thus, the piles of the coals that are divided by the first division bosses 4072 of the first divider 4070 and are transferred through the passages between the first division bosses 4072 may be divided by the second division bosses 4077 of the second divider 4075, so that the piles of the coals that are transferred on the surfaces of the first upper transfer plates 114 are repeatedly divided and collected while passing through the first divider 4070 and the second divider 4075. Thus, the piles of the coals are roasted and mixed up so that drying effects of the piles of the coals may be improved. Further, it is preferred that the second division bosses 4077 are installed to be in contact with the surface of the first upper transfer plates 114 or to have fine spacing therebetween. This enables lower ends of the second division bosses 4077 to separate coals stuck to the surfaces of the first upper transfer plates 114 that transfers the piles of the coals so that the surfaces of the first upper transfer plates 114 may always be maintained clean and flat. It is preferred that the second divider 4075 may be fixed to the side surface of the first flue gas chamber 124 by a fixing member.
Further, the diversion flattener 4080 is installed on a rear side of the second divider 4075 with a specific interval. The dispersion flattener 4080 disperses and flattens the piles of the coals that are divided and collected by the second division bosses 4077 of the second divider 4075. The dispersion flattener 4080 has a division boss 4082 that protrudes from a center of a front surface of a column-shaped body 4081. The piles of the coals that have passed through the dispersion flattener 4080 are consistently dried by the reheat steam sprayed from lower sides of the first upper transfer plates 114. It is preferred that the dispersion flattener 4080 may be fixed to the side surface of the first flue gas chamber 124 by a fixing member.
Thus, the first divider 4070, the second divider 4075 and the dispersion flattener 4080 are installed as one structure inside each first flue gas chamber 124. Further, the first divider 4070, the second divider 4075 and the dispersion flattener 4080 may be plural. In addition, it is preferred that the first divider 4070, the second divider 4075 and the dispersion flattener 4080 are installed at an inner center or on a rear side of the first flue gas chamber 124.
Further, the first divider 4070, the second divider 4075 and the dispersion flattener 4080 are installed within a plurality of second flue gas chambers 126 that are installed on the first lower transfer plates 114.
Further, the first divider 4070, the second divider 4070 and the dispersion flattener 4080 are installed inside a plurality of third flue gas chambers 154 installed on the second upper transfer plates 144 installed in the second coal dryer 140 and a plurality of fourth flue gas chambers 156 installed on the second lower transfer plates 144,
Therefore, the piles of the coals that are transferred while being stacked on the surfaces of the first upper and lower transfer plates 114 and the second upper and lower transfer plates 144 are divided, collected, dispersed and flattened by the first divider 4070, the second divider 4075 and the dispersion flattener 4080 that are installed in each flue gas chamber while being dried by the reheat steam by passing through the first flue gas chamber 124, the second flue gas chamber 126, and the third flue gas chamber 154 and the fourth flue gas chamber 156, so that drying efficiency is improved.
The second flattener 4040 horizontally divides, disperses and flattens a center of the piles of the coals C that fall onto and are transferred on the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates, which face an upper side. This is to transfer the piles of the coals that are transferred by and fall from the first upper transfer plates 114 after the piles of the coals are uniformly dispersed and flattened on the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 because the piles of the coals are irregularly stacked.
Further, the third flattener 4050 horizontally divides, disperses and flattens a center of the piles of the coals C that fall onto and are transferred on the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144 in the first coal dryer, which face an upper side. This is to transfer the piles of the coals that are input from the first coal dryer after the piles of the coals are uniformly dispersed and flattened on the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144 because the piles of the coals are irregularly stacked.
Further, the fourth flattener 4060 horizontally divides, disperses and flattens a center of the piles of the coals C that fall and are input onto and are transferred on the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144 in the first coal dryer, which face an upper side. This is to transfer the piles of the coals that are transferred by and fall from the second upper transfer plates 144 after the piles of the coals are uniformly dispersed and flattened on the surface of the second lower transfer plates 144 because the piles of the coals are irregularly stacked.
Thus, when coals that are input by the fixed quantity coal supplier 400 at a fixed quantity are input onto and transferred on the surfaces of the first upper transfer plates 114 of the first coal dryer 110, the first flattener 4030 uniformly disperses and flattens piles of the transferred coals.
In
Further, the piles of the coals C that are dried by the sprayed reheat steam while being stacked and transferred on the surfaces of the first upper transfer plates 114 drop onto the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114. The piles of the coals C that are input onto the first lower transfer plates 114 are uniformly dispersed and flattened while passing through the second flattener 4040. When being transferred to the second flue gas chamber 126 while being dispersed and flattened, the piles of the coals C that are stacked on the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 and pass through the second flattener 4040 are dried by reheat steam sprayed by the second steam chamber 123. Here, the piles of the coals C are separated and divided to between the first division bosses 4072 by the first division bosses 4072 by passing through the first divider 4070 installed inside the second flue gas chamber 126, the divided and collected piles of the coals C are separated and divided by the second division bosses 4077 of the second divider 4075 again, and the divided and collected piles of the coals C are dispersed and flattened by passing through the dispersion flattener 4080. Accordingly, the piles of the coals C are divided, collected and mixed up by the first divider 4070, the second divider 4075 and the dispersion flattener 4080 while being loaded on the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114, and thus, the reheat steam sprayed by the second steam chamber 123 uniformly comes into contact with even non-contact portions, so that the coals may be efficiently dried.
Further, when the piles of the coals that are completely dried by the first coal dryer 110 are input onto the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144 of the second coal dryer 140 and are transferred, the third flattener 4050 uniformly disperses and flattens the transferred piles of the coals.
When being transferred to the third flue gas chamber 154 while being dispersed and flattened, the piles of the coals C that are loaded on the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144 and pass through the third flattener 4050 are dried by reheat steam sprayed in the third steam chamber 150. Here, the piles of the coals C are separated and divided to between the first division bosses 4072 by the first division bosses 4072 by passing through the first divider 4070 installed inside the third flue gas chamber 154, the divided and collected piles of the coals C are separated and divided by the second division bosses 4077 of the second divider 4075 again, and the divided and collected piles of the coals C are dispersed and flattened by passing through the dispersion flattener 4080. Accordingly, the piles of the coals C are divided, collected and mixed up by the first divider 4070, the second divider 4075 and the dispersion flattener 4080 while being loaded on the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144, and thus, the reheat steam sprayed in the third steam chamber 150 uniformly comes into contact with even non-contact portions, so that the coals may be efficiently dried.
Further, the piles of the coals C that are dried by the sprayed reheat steam while being loaded and transferred on the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144 drop onto the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144. The piles of the coals C that are input onto the second lower transfer plates 144 are dispersed and flattened while passing through the fourth flattener 4060. When being transferred to the fourth flue gas chamber 156 while being dispersed and flattened, the piles of the coals C that are loaded on the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 and pass through the fourth flattener 4060 are dried by reheat steam sprayed by the second steam chamber 153. Here, the piles of the coals C are separated and divided to between the first division bosses 4072 by the first division bosses 4072 by passing through the first divider 4070 installed inside the second flue gas chamber 156, the divided and collected piles of the coals C are separated and divided by the second division bosses 4077 of the second divider 4075 again, and the divided and collected piles of the coals C are dispersed and flattened by passing through the dispersion flattener 4080. Accordingly, the piles of the coals C are divided, collected and mixed up by the first divider 4070, the second divider 4075 and the dispersion flattener 4080 while being loaded on the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144, and thus, the reheat steam sprayed by the fourth steam chamber 153 uniformly comes into contact with even non-contact portions, so that the coals may be efficiently dried.

Further, the first residue remover 5070 is installed to be in contact with the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 that escape from the first driven sprockets 112 through rotation. That is, this is installed between the first driven sprockets 112 and the second flattener 5040. The first residue remover 5070 may rake the entire surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 as the first rakes 5072 rake the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 that escape from the first driven sprockets 112 at a specific horizontal interval and the second rear rakes 5073 rake the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 located between the first rakes 5072. Coal residues raked by the first rakes 5072 and the second rakes 5073 are transferred while being mixed together with the piles of the coals that fall from the first upper transfer plates 114. Therefore, the first residue remover 5070 removes coal residues in the first coal dryer 110, which are stuck to the surfaces of the first upper and lower transfer plates 114 on which the piles of the coals are loaded and transferred, so that drying efficiency of coals is improved.
The second flattener 5040 horizontally divides, disperses and flattens the coal residues that are removed from the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 by the first residue remover 5070 and a center of the piles of the coals C that fall from the first upper transfer plates 114 onto the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114, which face an upper side and are transferred. This is to transfer the coal residues from the first residue remover 5070 and the piles of the coals that are transferred by the first upper transfer plates 114 after the coal residues and the piles of the coals are uniformly dispersed and flattened on the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 because the coal residues and the piles of the coals are irregularly stacked.
Further, the third flattener 5050 horizontally divides, disperses and flattens a center of the piles of the coals C that fall onto and are transferred on the surfaces of the second transfer plates 144 in the first coal dryer, which faces an upper side. This is to transfer the piles of the coals that are transferred from the first coal dryer after the piles of the coals are uniformly dispersed and flattened on the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144 because the piles of the coals are irregularly stacked.
A second residue remover 5080 includes an approximately rectangular column-shaped body 5081. The body 5081 is fixed to opposite surfaces by fixing members 5084, respectively. A plurality of rakes 5082 protrude from a lower end of the body 5081 at a specific horizontal internal. The first rakes 5082 are in contact with the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144. It is preferred that the first rakes 5082 have elasticity. It is preferred that blades that are in contact with the second lower transfer plates 144 to easily rake coal residues are formed at lower ends of the first rakes 5082, respectively. Further, second rakes 5083 protrude from between the first rakes 5082. Each second rake 5083 is rearward bent at a lower end of the body at a specific angle, that is, approximately at a right angle, and a lower end thereof is in contact with the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144. It is preferred that the second rakes 5083 have elasticity. It is preferred that blades that are in contact with the second lower transfer plates 144 to easily rake coal residues are formed at lower ends of the second rakes 5083, respectively. Further, the second residue remover 5080 is installed to be in contact with the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 that escape from the second driven sprockets 142 through rotation. That is, this is installed between the second driven sprockets 142 and the fourth flattener 5060. The second residue remover 5080 may rake the entire surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 as the first rakes 5082 rake the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 that escape from the second driven sprockets 142 through rotation at a specific horizontal interval and the second rear rakes 5083 rake the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 located between the first rakes 5082. Coal residues raked by the first rakes 5082 and the second rakes 5083 are transferred while being mixed together with the piles of the coals that fall from the second upper transfer plates 144. Therefore, the second residue remover 5080 removes coal residues in the second coal dryer 140, which are stuck to the surfaces of the second upper and lower transfer plates 144 on which the piles of the coals are loaded and transferred, so that drying efficiency of coals is improved.
The fourth flattener 5060 horizontally divides, disperses and flattens the coal residues that are removed from the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 by the second residue remover 5080 and a center of the piles of the coals C that fall from the second upper transfer plates 144 onto the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144, which face an upper side and are transferred. This is to transfer the coal residues from the second residue remover 5080 and the piles of the coals that are transferred by the second upper transfer plates 144 after the coal residues and the piles of the coals are uniformly dispersed and flattened on the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 because the coal residues and the piles of the coals are irregularly stacked.
Thus, in the apparatus for removing coal residues stuck to transfer plates in a coal dryer according to the present invention, when coals that are input by the fixed quantity coal supplier 400 at a fixed quantity are input onto and are transferred on the surfaces of the first upper transfer plates 144 of the first coal dryer 110, the first flattener 5030 uniformly disperses and flattens piles of the transferred coals. Further, after the piles of the coals on the first upper transfer plates 114 are dried by the reheat steam while being transferred, the piles of the coals C loaded on the surfaces of the first upper transfer plates 114 drop onto the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 while sides of the first upper transfer plates 114 are separated from the first guide rails 115 through rotation of the first driven sprockets 112.

Further, when the piles of the coals that are completely dried by the first coal dryer 110 are input from the first coal dryer 110 onto the surfaces of the second upper transfer plates 144 of the second coal dryer 140 and are transferred, the third flattener 5050 uniformly disperses and flattens the transferred piles of the coals. Further, the piles of the coals on the second upper transfer plates 144 are dried by the reheat steam while being transferred. Further, the piles of the coals C loaded on the surfaces of the first upper transfer plates 114 drop onto the surfaces of the first lower transfer plates 114 while sides of the first upper transfer plates 114 are separated from the first guide rails 115 through rotation of the first driven sprockets 112.
The second residue remover 5080 rakes the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 by the plurality of first rakes 5082 and second rakes 5083 after the second upper transfer plates 144 are switched to the second lower transfer plates 144 through the rotation of the second driven sprockets 142. Here, coal residues stuck to the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 are separated and removed. This is to prevent the coal residues from being stuck while the piles of the coals C are loaded and transferred on the surfaces of the second transfer plates 144. That is, this is because the coals are not completely dried and may thus be adhered or stuck to the surfaces of the second transfer plates 144 by moisture contained in the coals.
The coal residues removed by the second residue remover 5080 and the piles of the coals C that drop onto the surfaces of the second lower transfer plates 144 are uniformly dispersed and flattened while passing through the fourth flattener 5060.
