Abstract
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
In packing elements in the form of a ring, it is known to have the side surface thereof comprise a plurality of openings each being in the shape of an isosceles triangle, and formed by bending the triangular portion of said side surface inwardly along the base of the triangle. Alternate portions are bent upwardly, with the others being bent downwardly. In this invention, the vertices of all of said portions are connected with each other by means of a polygonal disc. The disc has at least one opening, preferably circular in shape.

Description
8SZ~7 This invention relates to a packing element for columns used in mass exchange processes.
The known hitherto employed packing elements for columns have various structures, the following being among tne most rea,uently used:
raschig rings with a smooth or corrugated side surface; pall ~ings with rectangular openings in the side surface and deflected arc-shaped planes parallel to the axis of the ring; perfo rings with round openings in the side surface and the inner partition; and rings have openings in the shape of isosceles triangles formed in the side surface thereof, each opening formed by bending the triangular portion along the base of the triangle in-wardly towards the centre of the ring, alternate ones of said portions being bent upwardly, with the others being bent downwardly, each portion having openings formed by bending smaller portions thereof towards the axis of the ring.
The disadvantages found in practical use of known packing elements include high flow resistances, inequality of distributing the liquid over the cross-section of the column, and preventing a considerable amount of liquid from taking part in the mass exchange process.
; An object of the invention is to eliminate some of the disadvant-ages of the prior art.
The present invention provides a packing element in the form of a ring having a side surface comprising a plurality of openings formed by bending portions of said side surface inwardly, said openings being arranged at a distance of approximately 1/4 of the width of the ring away from its edge, each said opening being in the shape of an isoscles triangle and said portions being bent inwardly along the base of the triangle towards the centre of the ringl thereby forming said openings in said side surface, alternate ones of said portions being bent upwardly, with the others being ~ 1 T

~ SZ87 bent downwardly, the vertices of all of said portions being connected with each other by means of a polygonal disc, said disc having at least one open-ing therein.
In drawings which illustrate an embodiment of the invention:
Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of the packing element; and Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the packing element.
The packing element, of any material, is made in the form of a ring 1. The side surface 2 of the ring 1 is provided with openings 3, which are in the shape of isosceles triangles. Each opening 3 is formed by bend-ing the portion 4 inwardly along the base of the triangle. Alternate port-ions are bent upwardly, with the others being bent downwardly, the vertices of all of said bent portions being connected with each other by means of a polygonal disk 6, provided with at least one opening 7, preferably of cir-; cular shape.
The triangular portions 4 bent towards the axis of the element provide the element with additional rigidity and increase the bending strength thereof and this makes it possible to use thin walls in the pack-ing element, thereby reducing the weight of the column packing.
