Definitions
- the present invention relates to improvements in jet mills in which the granular or pulverulent material is introduced continuously or not in an enclosure around which are arranged several nozzles supplied with pressurized fluid ensuring substantially horizontal centripetal jets within the material. to cause crushing zones by impacts between the grains (attrition) and cause the finest particles to rise, which are then continuously extracted from above, while the larger particles, because they are insufficiently crushed, fall laterally. in the material to be ground. The large particles entrained with the fines are reintroduced into the grinding chamber after classification in the separator.

Thus, upon resumption of blowing, the material is strongly accelerated; in this way, the blowing takes place every period in an area of high concentration of materials and its efficiency is improved.
- the distribution of the nozzles and the pulses given to their supply are determined by the material, the initial fineness, the final fineness and the production to be carried out. In any case, it was found that production was improved with a reduction in consumption of energy.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne des perfectionnements aux broyeurs à jets dans lesquels la matière granuleuse ou pulvérulente est introduite de façon continue ou non dans une enceinte autour de laquelle sont disposées plusieurs buses alimentées en fluide sous pression assurant des jets centripètes sensiblement horizontaux au sein de la matière pour provoquer des zones de broyage par des chocs entre les grains (attrition) et faire monter les particules les plus fines qui sont ensuite extraites en permanence par le haut, tandis que les particules plus grosses, parce qu'insuffisamment broyées, retombent latéra-. lement dans la matière à broyer. Les grosses particules entraînées avec les fines sont réintroduites dans l'enceinte de broyage après classement dans le séparateur.The present invention relates to improvements in jet mills in which the granular or pulverulent material is introduced continuously or not in an enclosure around which are arranged several nozzles supplied with pressurized fluid ensuring substantially horizontal centripetal jets within the material. to cause crushing zones by impacts between the grains (attrition) and cause the finest particles to rise, which are then continuously extracted from above, while the larger particles, because they are insufficiently crushed, fall laterally. in the material to be ground. The large particles entrained with the fines are reintroduced into the grinding chamber after classification in the separator.
Il s'agit de réaliser le broyage de matières granuleuses ou pulvérulentes par soumission des particules à des impacts entre les particules elles-mêmes (attrition) La vitesse des particules est engendrée par un gaz ou une vapeur à haute pression expulsé à travers de buses.-Le gaz ou la vapeur peut être inerte vis-à-vis du matériau à broyer.This involves grinding granular or powdery materials by subjecting the particles to impacts between the particles themselves (attrition). The speed of the particles is generated by a high pressure gas or vapor expelled through nozzles. -Gas or vapor can be inert towards the material to be ground.
L'état de la technique en la matière est clairement établi par le brevet américain 1.948.609 du 18 janvier 1932.The state of the art in the matter is clearly established by the American patent 1,948,609 of January 18, 1932.
Dans ce brevet, la matière à broyer est introduite latéralement dans une enceinte autour de laquelle sont disposées des buses qui provoquent des jets horizontaux qui se relèvent vers le haut au sein de la matière. Il est prévu une version où les buses sont disposées annulairement de façon à concentrer leur effet dans le centre de l'enceinte.In this patent, the material to be ground is introduced laterally into an enclosure around which are arranged nozzles which cause horizontal jets. which rise upward within matter. A version is provided where the nozzles are arranged annularly so as to concentrate their effect in the center of the enclosure.
Le brevet français ALPINE 2.104.091 reprend l'essentiel du brevet américain 1.948.609 cité antérieurement.The French patent ALPINE 2,104,091 reproduces the essentials of the American patent 1,948,609 cited previously.
Dans ce broyeur et dans tous les broyeurs de ce type, le gaz ou la vapeur sont injectés de façon continue et la vitesse du jet est généralement supersonique. Ce soufflage continu a l'inconvénient de créer des zones de faible concentration en matériau puisque ce matériau ne peut pas se réintroduire avec un débit convenable dans le jet, notamment dans la zone initiale où la vitesse est la plus grande. Par ailleurs, les particules sont animées en permanence d'un mouvement avec des vitesses relativement grandes et, par conséquent, les accélérations qu'elles subissent sont modérées quand elles tombent dans les zones de jets où il règne des vitesses plus grandes.In this grinder and in all grinders of this type, the gas or the vapor are injected continuously and the speed of the jet is generally supersonic. This continuous blowing has the disadvantage of creating zones of low material concentration since this material cannot be reintroduced with a suitable flow rate in the jet, in particular in the initial zone where the speed is the greatest. In addition, the particles are permanently animated with a movement with relatively high speeds and, consequently, the accelerations which they undergo are moderate when they fall in the zones of jets where there reign higher speeds.
Dans les zones de faible concentration, la fréquence des chocs est relativement faible, ce qui diminue l'intensité et l'efficacité du broyage d'une part et le rendement énergétique d'autre part. La faible accélération diminue les vitesses relatives des chocs ce qui diminue également l'intensité et l'efficacité du broyage.In areas of low concentration, the frequency of shocks is relatively low, which decreases the intensity and efficiency of grinding on the one hand and energy efficiency on the other. The low acceleration decreases the relative shock velocities which also decreases the intensity and efficiency of the grinding.
Le rendement de l'appareil est donc affaibli :
- 1) par la mauvaise utilisation du jet, notamment dans sa zone initiale ;
- 2) par la vitesse élevée des mêmes particules qui ne sont pas accélérées.
- 1) by the improper use of the jet, especially in its initial area;
- 2) by the high speed of the same particles which are not accelerated.
La présente invention est destinée à remédier à ces inconvénients.The present invention is intended to remedy these drawbacks.
Le broyeur de l'invention est caractérisé principalement par le fait que les buses sont réparties à des niveaux différents et sont alimentées par pulsations contrôlées de gaz par au moins un distributeur alimentant les différentes buses de façon alternée.The crusher of the invention is mainly characterized by the fact that the nozzles are distributed at different levels and are supplied by pulses controlled by gas by at least one distributor supplying the different nozzles alternately.
Afin d'éviter la remontée du matériau au moment de l'arrêt du soufflage à l'amont de la buse, ce qui peut entraîner l'obturation et l'usure de la buse, on prévoit un soufflage secondaire continu, à débit réduit. Celui-ci peut se faire par by-pass.In order to prevent the material from rising when the blowing stops upstream of the nozzle, which can lead to plugging and wear of the nozzle, provision is made for a continuous secondary blowing, at a reduced flow rate. This can be done by bypass.
En outre, la fermeture du débit de fluide aux buses peut être obtenu progressivement.In addition, the closure of the fluid flow to the nozzles can be obtained gradually.
Par exemple, elle se fait par un distributeur rotatif avec section de passage se réduisant progressivement. Ceci est obtenu par le modulage de la rotation du distributeur, soit encore par une section de passage appropriée du conduit dans le distributeur tournant. Cette section peut être en goutte d'eau, par exemple, et réduire le débit en fin de fermeture.For example, it is done by a rotary distributor with gradually reducing passage section. This is obtained by modulating the rotation of the distributor, or again by an appropriate passage section of the conduit in the rotary distributor. This section can be in a drop of water, for example, and reduce the flow rate at the end of closing.
Suivant une forme préférée de réalisation, les buses sont réparties en plusieurs séries, chaque série étant alimentée par une même rampe extérieure à l'enceinte et chaque rampe recevant son alimentation séparée, pulséeAccording to a preferred embodiment, the nozzles are distributed in several series, each series being supplied by the same ramp external to the enclosure and each ramp receiving its separate, pulsed supply.
et alternée à partir du distributeur. Avec cette dernière disposition, on peut alimenter simultanément soit les buses d'un même niveau, soit les buses d'une même verticale,and alternated from the distributor. With this latter arrangement, it is possible to simultaneously supply either the nozzles of the same level or the nozzles of the same vertical,
soit suivant une répartition oblique (hélicoïdale) d'une partie des buses.either in an oblique (helical) distribution of part of the nozzles.
Quand les buses sont alimentées individuellement par le distributeur, on peut les alimenter successivement suivant une permutation circulaire. On peut aussi disposer lesdites buses et les alimenter de façon à agir suivant une permutation hélicoïdale.When the nozzles are supplied individually through the distributor, they can be supplied successively in a circular permutation. Said nozzles can also be arranged and supplied so as to act in a helical permutation.
La forme de l'enceinte est variée. Elle peut être cylindrique, prismatique, conique, pyramidale, en tonneau ou tout autre forme jugée appropriée. Cependant, dans certaines de ces formes, et suivant la répartion des buses, il peut exister des zones où la matière est insuffisamment agitée. Pour remédier à cela, on prévoit au moins une buse secondaire alimentée de façon continue.The shape of the enclosure is varied. It can be cylindrical, prismatic, conical, pyramidal, barrel-shaped or any other form deemed appropriate. However, in some of these forms, and depending on the distribution of the nozzles, there may be areas where the material is insufficiently agitated. To remedy this, at least one secondary nozzle is supplied continuously.
Quant au distributeur alimentant les différentes buses suivant un programme établi mais que l'on peut faire varier, son fonctionnement est alors piloté à partir d'un dispositif à microprocesseur qui gère ainsi l'alimentation des buses en fonction de différents critères choisis par un opérateur.As for the distributor supplying the different nozzles according to an established program but which can be varied, its operation is then controlled from a microprocessor device which thus manages the supply of the nozzles according to different criteria chosen by an operator .
Le soufflage pulsé permet aux matériaux d'être réintroduits dans les zones à grande vitesse du jet pendant l'arrêt du soufflage. Ainsi, à la reprise du soufflage, le matériau est-il fortement accéléré ; de cette façon, le soufflage s'effectue à chaque période dans une zone de grande concentration de matériaux et son efficacité est améliorée.Pulsed blowing allows materials to be reintroduced into the high speed areas of the jet while the blowing stops. Thus, upon resumption of blowing, the material is strongly accelerated; in this way, the blowing takes place every period in an area of high concentration of materials and its efficiency is improved.
La répartition des buses et les pulsations données à leur alimentation sont déterminées par le matériau, la finesse initiale, la finesse finale et la production à réaliser. De toute façon, on a constaté que la production était améliorée avec une réduction de la consommation d'énergie.The distribution of the nozzles and the pulses given to their supply are determined by the material, the initial fineness, the final fineness and the production to be carried out. In any case, it was found that production was improved with a reduction in consumption of energy.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la description suivante qui en donne quelques exemples non limitatifs de réalisation pratique et qui sont illustrés par les dessins joints.The invention will be better understood with the aid of the following description which gives some nonlimiting examples of practical embodiment and which are illustrated by the accompanying drawings.

On y reconnaît l'enceinte de broyage (1), qui a ici la forme d'un cylindre vertical mais peut avoir toute autre forme prismatique, conique, pyramidale ou autre qui améliore l'attrition et diminue la vitesse du matériau au niveau des parois. Cette enceinte de broyage est entourée de deux rampes, l'une de premier niveau (4) et l'autre de deuxième niveau (5) qui entourent, à la façon d'anneaux, la partie médiane de l'enceinte (1). Les rampes (4) et (5) alimentent des buses, respectivement (2) et (3). Chacune des rampes (4) et (5) est alimentée à son tour par l'intermé- diaire de vannes (6) et (7) qui contrôlent l'alimentation par tout ou rien de chacune des rampes (4) et (5) et par conséquent des buses (2) et (3). L'alimentation des vannes (6) et (7) se fait, suivant les flèches (20), (21) par un gaz sous pression ou de la vapeur sèche.We recognize the grinding chamber (1), which here has the shape of a vertical cylinder but can have any other prismatic, conical, pyramidal or other shape which improves attrition and reduces the speed of the material at the walls . This grinding enclosure is surrounded by two ramps, one of the first level (4) and the other of the second level (5) which surround, like rings, the middle part of the enclosure (1). The ramps (4) and (5) feed nozzles, respectively (2) and (3). Each of the ramps (4) and (5) is fed in turn by the interme- of iaire valves (6) and (7) that control supply all or nothing for each of the ramps (4) and (5 ) and therefore nozzles (2) and (3). The valves (6) and (7) are supplied, according to the arrows (20), (21) by pressurized gas or dry steam.
La matière broyée suffisamment finement à l'intérieur de l'enceinte de broyage (1) s'élève à la partie supérieure et aboutit dans un séparateur (8) d'où les particules les plus fines sont envoyées dans un deuxième séparateur (9) de produits finis tandis que les particules les plus grosses sont renvoyées dans le transporteur à vis (14) qui alimente l'enceinte de broyage (1) par la conduite de retour (11) et l'écluse (12). Les gaz ayant véhiculé les produits sont envoyés du séparateur (9) vers le filtre (10) qui les renvoie à l'atmosphère suivant la flèche (22). Les produits broyés sont recueillis en (23) et (24).The ground material finely enough inside the grinding chamber (1) rises to the top and ends up in a separator (8) from which the finest particles are sent into a second separator (9) of finished products while the largest particles are returned to the screw conveyor (14) which supplies the grinding chamber (1) by the return pipe ( 1 1) and the lock (12). The gases having conveyed the products are sent from the separator (9) to the filter (10) which returns them to the atmosphere according to the arrow (22). The ground products are collected in (23) and (24).
Les produits à broyer sont déversés dans la trémie d'alimentation (13) qui est fermée par une écluse (25) et qui débouche dans le transporteur à vis (14) pour alimenter l'enceinte de broyage (1). Le transporteur (14) comporte un dispositif d'étanchéité (15) entre la trémie (13) et l'enceinte de broyage (1). Le dispositif d'étanchéité est avantageusement constitué par une interruption de la vis à l'intérieur du transporteur (14).The products to be ground are poured into the feed hopper (13) which is closed by a lock (25) and which opens into the screw conveyor (14) to feed the grinding chamber (1). The conveyor (14) has a sealing device (15) between the hopper (13) and the grinding chamber (1). The sealing device is advantageously constituted by an interruption of the screw inside the conveyor (14).
Le produit à broyer introduit dans l'enceinte de broyage (1) par le transporteur (14) tombe sur un fond poreux (17) sous lequel se trouve une chambre à air (18) pour fluidiser ledit produit, notamment en vue d'évacuer la matière non broyée accumulée au fond de l'enceinte (1) par la combinaison de l'inclinaison du fond (17) avec insufflation de l'air dans ladite chambre (18). Les produits non broyés sont évacués par l'écluse (19). Cependant, pour éviter toute accumulation de nouveaux produits introduits par le transporteur (14), on prévoit une buse auxiliaire (16) qui souffle du gaz de manière ininterrompue en dégageant la sortie du transporteur (14).The product to be ground introduced into the grinding chamber (1) by the conveyor (14) falls on a porous bottom (17) under which there is an air chamber (18) to fluidize said product, in particular with a view to evacuating the unmilled material accumulated at the bottom of the enclosure (1) by the combination of the inclination of the bottom (17) with blowing air into said chamber (18). Uncrushed products are discharged through the lock (19). However, to avoid any accumulation of new products introduced by the conveyor (14), an auxiliary nozzle (16) is provided which blows gas continuously without releasing the outlet from the conveyor (14).
Une conduite (26) est prévue entre le haut de l'enceinte (1) et le haut de la trémie (13) pour équilibrer les pressions et faciliter l'alimentation.A line (26) is provided between the top of the enclosure (1) and the top of the hopper (13) to balance the pressures and facilitate feeding.
La particularité essentielle du dispositif de l'invention réside dans l'enceinte de broyage (1) où l'on prévoit des buses (2) et (3) réparties à des niveaux différents et où l'alimentation desdites buses (2) et (3), par deux rampes (4) et (5) séparées, est contrôlée par des vannes (6) et (7) dont le fonctionnement dépend d'un dispositif de distribution qui détermine leur ouverture Pulsatoire alternée. Différentes variantes dans l'alimentation des diverses buses et dans leurs répartitions seront expliquées ci-après.The essential characteristic of the device of the invention resides in the grinding chamber (1) where nozzles (2) and (3) are provided distributed at different levels and where the supply of said nozzles (2) and ( 3), by two separate ramps (4) and (5), is controlled by valves (6) and (7) whose operation depends on a distribution device which determines their alternating pulsating opening. Different variants in the food tation of the various nozzles and their distribution will be explained below.
La figure 5 représente une coupe longitudinale de buses (2) qui se composent d'un convergent d'un divergent (28) reliés par un col (29) qui est un orifice étroit. Pour éviter que le col (29) ne se bouche par les matières à l'intérieur de l'enceinte (1) lorsque lesdites buses (2) ne sont pas alimentées normalement, on prévoit une alimentation continue à débit réduit des buses (2) à l'aide d'un by-pass (30) dimensionné convenablement.FIG. 5 represents a longitudinal section of nozzles (2) which consist of a convergent of a divergent (28) connected by a neck (29) which is a narrow orifice. To prevent the neck (29) from becoming blocked by the materials inside the enclosure (1) when said nozzles (2) are not supplied normally, provision is made for a continuous supply at a reduced flow rate of the nozzles (2) using an appropriately sized bypass (30).
Pour obtenir une progressivité de la fermeture de débit de fluide aux buses (2), on utilise un distributeur rotatif (48) (figure 8) dont le canal distributeur (49) a une section en goutte d'eau tel que représenté à la figure 9.To obtain a gradual closure of the fluid flow to the nozzles (2), a rotary distributor (48) (FIG. 8) is used, the distributor channel (49) of which has a drop-shaped section as shown in FIG. 9.
En se reportant à la figure 1, on a représenté une enceinte de'broyage (1) avec des buses (2) et (3) réparties sur deux niveaux différents. Les buses (3) du niveau supérieur sont alimentées séparément par des conduites (31), (32), (33) elles-mêmes alimentées successivement Par une électro-vanne (34) filetée à partir d'un commutateur électronique à fréquence réglable (35) auquel elle est reliée par la ligne (36).Referring to Figure 1, there is shown a grinding enclosure (1) with nozzles (2) and (3) distributed over two different levels. The nozzles (3) of the upper level are supplied separately by conduits (31), (32), (33) themselves successively supplied by a solenoid valve (34) threaded from an electronic switch with adjustable frequency ( 35) to which it is connected by line (36).
De même, les buses (2) sont alimentées suivant des pulsations successives par les conduites (37), (38), (39) à partir d'une électro-vanne (40) dont le fonctionnement est piloté par le commutateur électronique à fréquence réglable (35) auquel elle est reliée par la ligne (41). Le gaz comprimé d'alimentation, généralement de l'air, arrive par le tuyau d'alimentation (42), qui peut être isolé par la vanne (43) et qui alimente les deux électrovannes (34), (40). Le commutateur électronique à fréquence réglable (35) est avantageusement accompagné d'un calcu- réglable (35) est avantageusement accompagné d'un calculateur à microprocesseurs qui permet de régler le temps de soufflage de chaque buse et le moment où ce soufflage aura lieu. Tous ces temps sont réglables si bien que l'on peut gérer ainsi à volonté le fonctionnement de chacune des buses pour créer le maximum de zones de turbulence et les déplacer à volonté afin d'obtenir la plus grande efficacité possible dans le broyage.Likewise, the nozzles (2) are supplied in successive pulses by the conduits (37), (38), (39) from a solenoid valve (40) whose operation is controlled by the electronic frequency switch adjustable (35) to which it is connected by the line (41). The compressed supply gas, generally air, arrives through the supply pipe (42), which can be isolated by the valve (43) and which supplies the two solenoid valves (34), (40). The electronic adjustable frequency switch (35) is advantageously accompanied by an adjustable calculator (35) is advantageously accompanied by a microprocessor computer which makes it possible to adjust the blowing time of each nozzle and the moment when this blowing will take place. All these times are adjustable so that we can manage at will the operation of each of the nozzles to create the maximum number of turbulence zones and move them at will in order to obtain the greatest possible efficiency in grinding.
A la figure 4, on a représenté la même enceinte de broyage (1) avec des buses (3) alimentées par une rampe (5) recevant du gaz comprimé par la conduite (44). On a représenté aussi des buses (201) et (202) qui sont alimentées soit par des rampes similaires à la rampe (5), soit individuellement comme cela a été expliqué ci-dessus et illustré à la figure 1.In Figure 4, there is shown the same grinding chamber (1) with nozzles (3) supplied by a ramp (5) receiving compressed gas through the pipe (44). Also shown are nozzles (201) and (202) which are supplied either by ramps similar to the ramp (5), or individually as has been explained above and illustrated in FIG. 1.
La conduite (44) et chaque conduite aboutissant aux buses (201) et (202) aboutissent à des électrovannes (non représentées) similaires aux électrovannes (34), (40) qui sont pilotées par un commutateur similaire au commutateur (35). En agissant sur celui-ci, on peut provoquer des zones de broyage successives, pulsatoires et intermittentes suivant un cycle voulu dans différentes zones de l'enceinte de broyage (1) afin de déterminer le maximum d'accélérations des particules et leur broyage efficace.The pipe (44) and each pipe leading to the nozzles (201) and (202) lead to solenoid valves (not shown) similar to the solenoid valves (34), (40) which are controlled by a switch similar to the switch (35). By acting on it, it is possible to cause successive, pulsating and intermittent grinding zones according to a desired cycle in different zones of the grinding chamber (1) in order to determine the maximum acceleration of the particles and their efficient grinding.
En se reportant à la figure 2, on a représenté une enceinte de broyage (1) avec son transporteur à vis d'alimentation (14) et sur les parois duquel sont réparties des buses (203), (204), (205) et (206) suivant des verticales. Les buses (203) peuvent être alimentées par une même rampe. Il en est de même de chacun des groupements de buses (204), (205) et (206). Chacune de ces rampes sont alors reliées à une électrovanne qui distribue l'air sous forme de pulsations cycliques d'après le pilotage d'un commutateur électronique à fréquence réglable. De la même façon que précédemment, chacune des buses (203) à (206) peut recevoir une alimentation pa.r une conduite distincte qui aboutit aussi à une électrovanne pilotée pour obtenir le maximum de possibilités de réglage dans les pulsations réalisées.Referring to Figure 2, there is shown a grinding chamber (1) with its feed screw conveyor (14) and on the walls of which are distributed nozzles (203), (204), (205) and (206) according to verti wedges. The nozzles (203) can be supplied by the same ramp. It is the same for each of the nozzle groups (204), (205) and (206). Each of these ramps is then connected to a solenoid valve which distributes the air in the form of cyclic pulses according to the control of an electronic switch with adjustable frequency. In the same way as previously, each of the nozzles (203) to (206) can receive a supply by a separate pipe which also leads to a piloted solenoid valve in order to obtain the maximum of adjustment possibilities in the pulsations carried out.
En se reportant à la figure 3, on a représenté des buses (207) réparties de façon hélicoïdale à la périphérie de l'enceinte de broyage (1). Les buses (207) peuver être alimentées par une ou plusieurs rampes hélicoïdales qui reçoivent une alimentation de gaz puisé. De la même façon que précédemment, on peut aussi prévoir une alimen- tation distincte de chacune des buses (207) à l'aide d'une conduite séparée qui aboutit à une électrovanne répartissan des pulsations cycliques de gaz suivant un programme établi par un commutateur électronique à fréquence réglable.Referring to Figure 3, there are shown nozzles (207) distributed helically at the periphery of the grinding chamber (1). The nozzles (207) can be supplied by one or more helical ramps which receive a supply of pulsed gas. Similarly as above, may also be provided a separate SUPPLY TERMINAL t ation of each of the nozzles (207) by means of a separate pipe which leads to a solenoid répartissan cyclic pulsations of gas following a program established by a adjustable frequency electronic switch.
Toutes ces variantes permettent de traiter des poudres différentes avec le maximum d'efficacité. La répartition des buses, leur débit, le diamètre de leur venturi (29), la façon dont elles sont alimentées peuvent ainsi varier à volonté pour s'adapter aux matériaux, à la finesse initiale de celui-ci, à la finesse finale que l'on veut obtenir et à la production désirée.All these variants make it possible to treat different powders with maximum efficiency. The distribution of the nozzles, their flow rate, the diameter of their venturi (29), the way in which they are supplied can thus vary at will to adapt to the materials, to the initial fineness thereof, to the final fineness that the 'we want to obtain and to the desired production.
