Description
~0~933f~
This invention relates to a method for enveloping foamed polystyrene pellets suitable for producing li~htened manu-factured articles of cement.
As well known, in the production of cement manu-factured articles, when desiring to provide a lightened product, such as a product also exhibiting very good properties of heat and sound insulation, besides other known products, resort is also had to incorporating into the manufactured article pellets of foamed polystyrene which have been previously enveloped or coated with a layer of synthetic resins.
One of the known methods for previously enveloping such pellets contemplates that the pellets should be introduced into a tank fitted with stirrer, along with amounts of expensive - epoxy resins and cement or lime. Thus, at the tank outlet a wet product is obtained, in which the resin coating the pellet body is not polymerized, thus giving then rise in the course of storage or further transportation to building up of pellet and masses which are detrimental to the cement manufacturedarticle when such pellets are incorporated into the manufactured article.
Instead of epoxy resins, use was already made for a . .

gluing agent or adhesive of the type as used in farming for causing anticryptogamics or fungicides to adhere to the leaves. However, these and other gluing products are at least partially water soluble due to polymerization lack of the resins, so that when the enveloped or coated polystyrene pellets are contacted with water during the manufactured article production, the envelope or coating would tend to become separated, bringing (as a washing) the pellets back to the initial state thereof, thus providing a product of poor quality.
. Upon designing and planning, it was found that cement or lime in the enveloping layer would chemically react in the presence of water and various chemicals used, so that cement or lime in the enveloping layer would "decay" and therefore also tend to cause the cement or lime arranged about the pellets "to decay" when introduced into the manufac-tured article, whereby the strength of the finished manufactur-ed article would be highly adversely affected.
Finally, it should be noted that all of the heretofore enveloping processes known suffer from the disadvantage of being discontinuous, that is a fixed predetermined amount of polystyrene pellets, resins and cement or lime by time introduced into the processing tank, and for availability of the enveloped pellets it is necessary to wait that the . ;~

1049~36 whole loaded volume or mass be processed and unloaded. This is a disadvantage when such a preparation is carried out directly at the use site, since the systems downstream of the processing station operate at a much higher and continuous rate and hence, in order to incorporatethe pellets into a manufactured article, a shutdown for the systems and workers would become necessary for quite extended periods of time with attendant antieconomical dead times. As a further disadvantage, the lack should be mentioned of a proper and fast drying with polymerization in order to allow for a later use of the enveloped product.
It is the object of the present invention to provide a method, which can be readily, continuously, simply and economically carried into effect, at the same time enabling to overcome the attendant disadvantages of the prior art.
Therefore, according to the invention, there is provided a method for enveloping foamed polystyrene pellets suitable for producing lightened manufactured articles of cement. The method substantially comprises the continuous steps of introducing a stream of foamed polystyrene pellets into a 20 mixing unit; feeding the pellets to a first station of the unit;
continuously introducing at the first station a proportioned amount of water and water dispersibIe synthetic resins; feeding the so wetted pellets to a second station of the unit; continuously introducing at the second station an inert filler in a proportioned amount feeding all of the material to a third station of the unit; presenting an o~stacle to the progression of material in the unit to cause momentary accumulation of the material at a drying and polymerization zone; applying heat to the accumulated material at the zone to enhance drying and polymerization of the material, and thereafter deIiYering the material to an outlet of the unit.

This and further objects, features, details and advantages of the method, according to the present invention will become more apparent from the following short detailed description, given by way of not limiting example, reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which:
Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic full view of the unit for carrying out the enveloping method according to the invention;
Fig. 2 is an end view showing the mi*ing unit (double-shaft mixer) of Fig. l;
Fig. 3 is a view showing a detail of the inert filler introducing unit of Fig. l; and Fig. 4 is a view showing a modified em~odiment of Fig. 1, where the mixing unit comprises a first vertically arranged length or section~
Referring to the drawings and particularly to - Figs. 1, 2 and 3, references numeral 1 designates a tank for foamed polystyrene pellets intended to be enveloped, and reference numerals 2 and 2' designate tanks for water and synthetic resin mixing, such tanks being provided as two units just for imparting continuity to the process even when one of the tanks is empty.
Thus, to this end, should the tank 2 be already empty and while providing for refilling the same, the selection tap 5 would be also automatically turned on ', ' ' , ' ;
' . ' " " ' ~
, " `' .' ', "' . ,, . ,' ~ ' '~ ;

to enable a flow from tank 2', whereas reference numeral 5' designates a pump for spraying the resinated liquid. A tank for the inert filler intended to partake to the enveloping process is shown at 3, The foamed polystyrene pellets, the water-resin mixture and the inert filler are supplied to a mixer 7 at the locations or stations A, B and C, respective-ly. Preferably, the mixer 7 is a tubular body internally including two counter-rotating vane shafts 8 for conveying the material being introduced.
At its area downstream of the material introduction locations, said mixing unit 7 comprises a heated drying length or section 10, as better described in the following.
The oulet end of this unit 7 then terminates with a rise or protrusion 11 serving as momentary obstacle to the pellets which, in order to be moved out, should accumulate and over-come such an obstacle, thus remaining for a longer period in the drying zone, the latter being provided with an over-hanging hood for condensate suction or drawing.
The introduction of the polystyrene pellets at the station A can be either by gravity, or by a conveyor or screw of variable speed for amount metering. This capability has been diagrammatically shown at 4, where a variable speed screw metering device is shown.
The foamed polystyrene pellets thus introduced into the mixing unit 7, upon the rotation of the counter-rotating shafts ~ as suitably driven by a drive unit 7 connected to a control unit also of the variable speed type, are caused by the rotation of the vanes on said shafts 8 to move right-wards, as seen in Fig. 1, and hence will arrive at beneath the station B, where the mixture of water and synthetic resins is introduced by means of said pump 5'.
Water introduction is through a transverse tube - ~ :
1049~36 fitted with nozzles to the direction of the pellet movement, so as to aid in homogenously wetting the same. The distri-bution device, which will be provided with a metering tap, can be of any convenient design, such as a rain-like or even an atomizing type of distributor. On further forward moving, the so wetted pellets pass beneath the station C, where the inert filler is introduced by the metering device 6. As better shown in Fig. 3, this metering device 6 substantially comprises a screw for metering provided with a variable speed geared motor 13, this screw being internally fitted with a tubular or box-likeelement 14, the bottom of which has a transversely arranged hopper opening 12.
The whole of the materials as respectively introduced into said station A, B and C, that is the now enveloped pellets, arrive at a heating zone 10, where the materials is thoroughly dried, so that the outlet product is quite dry.
Drying within zcne 10 can occur by hot air injection, with the jacket of the double-shaft mixer being heated and infrared ray elements (the provision of infrared rays is prevailing for a ready polymerization of the resins), or other like combinations. On moving to the outlet 16, the material will encounter said obstacle 11, and hence before coming out it has to accumulate in order to overcome said obstacle, this enabling to extend the dwell time within the drying zone 10 plus said steam sucking hood.
Referring to Fig. 4, a variant to Fig. 1 will now be described. In this figure, the same or like parts are designated by the same reference numerals, in the case followed by a prime. With respect to the embodiment of Fig.
1, the difference resides in that the first length or section 7 of Fig. 1, here denoted by 7~, comprises a vertical length or section 17 substantially appearing as a tubular tower, within which the polystyrene pellets and water-resin mixture are introduced from the obttom at locations A and B, respec-tively. Through a vane shaft 18 driven by a geared motor 19, these materials move in upward direction through the tower 17 and then form the top to the horizontal length 7' of the mixing u*it. The inert filler introduction is at C, just as described in Fig. 1. The same is true as to the heating and drying zone 10'.
As previously stated, the invention also provides a particular formulation for use with the method herein describ-ed. As above mentioned, the components being used for envop-ing the pellets comprise a mixture of resin in water, as well as an inert filler, in place of cement or lime as used in conventional techniques. Particularly, the invention provides to use, instead of the expensive epoxy resins used in the prior art, such resins of a lower cost as vinyl resins suitably added with a complexing synthetic reactant to aid in resin dispersion in water. A good efficiency was found by using for each apparent cubic meter of foamed polystyrene pellets a mixture of "water" plus "resins" having the follow-lng composltlon :
Water 10 1.
Polyacetovlnyl resin having a high 2 kg degree of polymerization Water retaining agent (methyl cellulose) 20-40 g (that is 0.1-0.2% on the resin amount) Creep inhibitor component (imparting roughness to the polystyrene pellets), weighting and not interferring with the action of the products being used (such as :
Barium bioxide (ventilated) Diatomite (ventilated) ,, 1~149336 Dolomite (ventilatedj and the like 20-40 g (0.1~02% on the resin amount) On tests carried out, it was found that the lightened cement manufactured article comprising pellets as enveloped by the above composition remarkably increases compressive and flexural strength in the manufactured article over that obtainable by the previously known techniques.
Although the method provides very good results with the above formulation, such a method could also be used with those resins as heretofore used, such as epoxy resins, since the material obtained at the end of the method accord-ing to the invention compris es previously dried enveloped pellets, which are therefore free of those disadvantages, such as building up of crumbs, accumulations and the like.
Of course, the invention is not limited to the details herein shown and/or described, but includes all of the variants and equivalent forms as devisable by those skilled in the art on the ground of the present invention~
