Abstract:
1. An arrangement for an adjustment of equipment for a boiler, which equipment is to be introduced into a furnace through an opening in a boiler wall of the boiler, comprising: the equipment being directable in angular positions through rotation by a rotation mechanism arranged outside an outer surface of the boiler wall and outside of the furnace, the rotation mechanism having means for rotating the equipment around a virtual center of rotation located within the outer surface of the boiler wall, and the means for rotating the equipment being located entirely outside the outer surface of the boiler wall, the equipment having a spreader unit with a nozzle located at a forward end of the spreader unit for distributing a liquid fuel in the furnace in the boiler, the nozzle being directable in different angular positions by rotating with the rotation mechanism arranged outside of the furnace, the rotation mechanism having means for rotating the nozzle around the virtual center of rotation in a region of a position from which the liquid fuel is spread next to an opening of the nozzle in the furnace or in an opening of a reactor, the rotation mechanism having a first part, fixedly arranged to a bracket and a second part united with a spreader pipe, one of the first part or the second part constituted by a guide having a form of an arc of a circle extending in a plane that is perpendicular to a line constituting the virtual center of rotation at a distance from the virtual center of rotation, the arc having a center at the virtual center of rotation, the second part being constituted by at least two rails or rollers, the two rails or rollers being arranged in, on or in contact with the guide, displacement means being arranged for displacing the two rails or rollers relative to the guide to rotate the spreader pipe and the nozzle around the virtual center of rotation.
