Description

Equipment for soaking, mixing and enrichment of organic substrates

Field of technology

The invention relates to a device for soaking, mixing and enriching organic substrates, which solves the problems associated with soaking, mixing and enriching organic substrates such as, for example, nutrient media for fungi, plants and the like.

Prior art

At present, devices for soaking and mixing organic substrates are known on the principle of:

a) Paddle and helical mixers (continuous or discontinuous)

b) Screw conveyors

c) Mixing wagons

d) Belt pile diggers

e) Equipment for immersion of whole packages of organic substrates below the water surface

The main disadvantage of the existing solutions is in cases a), b), c) there is imperfect and insufficient mixing and wetting of the substrates.

In the case of d), mixing and wetting requires several days of repeated piling of the piles through the machine, which makes the operation time consuming.

In case e) the wetting is satisfactory, it is not possible to mix the additions with the substrate at the same time.

The essence of the invention

The above-mentioned drawbacks are largely eliminated by the device for soaking, mixing and enriching organic substrates according to the invention, the essence of which consists in comprising a dipping bath, an insertion drum, a discharge drum and a discharge conveyor, wherein the insertion drum and the discharge drum are provided with mandrels or vanes, the darkness and / or vanes being mounted obliquely against the direction of rotation of the insertion drum and the discharge drum at an angle α 110 to 160 ° to the tangent surface of the discharge drum and at the same time the insertion drum and the discharge drum positioned so as to reach below the surface soaking water in the soaking tub and at the same time the discharge conveyor has a sloping bottom directed obliquely upwards at an angle β of 5 to 60 ° to the horizontal plane.

The invention relates to a device consisting of two or more horizontally arranged drums provided with darkness and / or paddles, a dipping bath and a discharge conveyor. The lower part of the drums reaches below the water level in the soaking tub. With their darkness and / or blades, they catch the organic substrates and any additions, dosed into the bath, floating on the surface and submerge them below the surface and at the same time move them to the discharge conveyor. The darkness and / or the blades are fixed at an angle α 110 to 160 ° to the tangent to the surface of the drum against the direction of rotation. In this case, it discharges the material to the discharge conveyor without returning it to the bath. The discharge conveyor connects to the dipping tub and points obliquely upwards at an angle of 5 to 60 ° to the horizontal plane. The direction of rotation of the discharge conveyor is chosen so that the rakes of the discharge conveyor re-immerse the discharged substrates into the conveyor bath and then move them along the slope of the conveyor to fall out of the machine. During this shift, the excess soaking water is drained off and returned to the soaking bath by gravity.

The main advantage of the device for soaking, mixing and enriching organic substrates according to the invention is seen in the fact that the organic substrates together with any additions are immersed by rotating drums below the surface of the soaking water and full humidity occurs during this process.

- 1 CZ 306488 B6 values all surfaces of dipped substrates. This prevents insufficiently moistened parts of the substrate from passing through the device. The advantage of the device is the short time during which the required wetting occurs. Another advantage is that the device works continuously and can be included in complete lines. Another advantage is that the excess water is substantially removed from the discharge conveyor and returned to the soaking tub. Another advantage is that during the passage of the substrates through the dipping bath, impurities with a higher bulk density than the bulk density of the dipping water are separated at the same time.

For correct function, it is advantageous that the discharge conveyor connected to the dipping tub is watertightly connected to the dipping tub.
