Definitions

  • the invention relates to a checking and filling device for powder extinguishers with a reversing device, a suction blower and a separator, which has a filter for retaining the extinguishing powder sucked in from a powder extinguisher, both the suction side and the pressure side of the suction blower being alternatively connectable to the outlet side of the filter and the direction of flow of the air can be switched over by actuating the reversing device.
  • a checking and filling device for powder extinguishers with a reversing device, a suction blower and a separator, which has a filter for retaining the extinguishing powder sucked in from a powder extinguisher, both the suction side and the pressure side of the suction blower being alternatively connectable to the outlet side of the filter and the direction of flow of the air can be switched over by actuating the reversing device.
  • Such a device belongs to the non-public, internal state of the art.
  • the procedure is generally such that the extinguishing powder contained in the powder extinguisher is first poured into an intermediate container, for example an empty powder extinguisher, from where it is then fed back to him with the aid of a device that is equipped with a Suction device, for example a suction fan and a separator, which is funnel-shaped in its lower region.
  • a Suction device for example a suction fan and a separator, which is funnel-shaped in its lower region.
  • a filter is assigned to the suction device of this device, which is intended to prevent the extinguishing powder sucked in from the intermediate container from reaching the suction device and impairing its functionality.
  • On the side of this filter facing away from the suction device there is very quickly powder deposits, which impair the suction power of the suction device.
  • the invention has for its object to improve a checking and filling device of the type described above with regard to the possibility of cleaning its separator filter.
  • a device according to claim 1.
  • the suction device does not need to be switched off during the cleaning process. Rather, the suction device can continue to run and be used for cleaning, the reversing filter, which is preferably arranged in the separator and independent of the first filter, prevents a pressure cushion preventing the first filter from building up in the separator and thus ensures that the first filter lasts for so long. can be backwashed until it is completely free of powder deposits.
  • the reversing device of the checking and filling device according to the invention can preferably be operated manually, with the advantage that a separate drive is unnecessary and the reversing process can be adapted to the particular circumstances.
  • the reversing device can be arranged on its separator and in particular can be designed as a control slide arranged between its suction fan and separator. Because of its compact design, such a device can be easily transported to the place of use and can also be handled there without any problems.
  • the reversing device is a control slide arranged between the suction fan and the separator, it can have an outlet duct leading from the reversing filter to the outside, preferably equipped with a check valve, through which reversed air can escape into the outside.
  • a rotary slide valve is preferably provided as the control slide valve, which offers the advantage that it can be actuated easily and without problems without obstruction to the device user.
  • the reversing device can also be arranged separately from the separator and connected to it via air lines. If this is the case, the reversing device preferably has a mechanical actuator which extends into the area of the separator, with the advantage that the device user can actuate it at any time, even during the filling process.
  • a flexible shaft can be assigned to this mechanical actuator.
  • the reversing filter is preferably arranged in the separator, so that extinguishing powder adhering to it can fall back into the separator after the reversing process has ended.
  • the filter surface of the reversing filter preferably points downwards.
  • the reversing filter can be designed as a ring filter and, if appropriate, is preferably arranged between the two walls of a double-walled separator, so that the reversed air can escape from the separator evenly all around.
  • an air guiding device can be provided which leads the reversed air below the separator filter or filters to the reversing filter.
  • one (or more) filter candle can be provided as a reversing filter, which has the advantage of being able to be replaced without problems.
  • This filter candle can be surrounded by a casing which is open at the bottom and which extends at least to the lower end of the filter or the filters of the separator and ensures that the reversed air is guided below the separator filter or filters to the reversing filter.
  • An air circuit can be connected to the reversing filter, which leads from the blown side of the device backwards through the separator, through the reversing filter and back to the suction side of the blower, so that the environment is in no way impaired by the reversing process. If such an air circuit can be connected to the reversing filter, the line running from the reversing filter to the reversing device can be closed when changing over to normal operation, thereby ensuring that no false air can flow into the separator during normal operation.
  • the reversing filter itself can be cleaned by air reversal, in particular by delayed pressure reduction on the clean side of the reversing filter.
  • the check valve assigned to the reversing filter can be used when switching to normal operation due to delayed valve closure and / or an empty volume present on the clean side of the reversing filter.
  • a check valve can be assigned to the reversing filter, which is arranged on the clean side of the reversing filter facing away from the filter surface, with the advantage that the reversing filter is easily accessible and exchangeable.
  • the device shown in Fig. 1 consists essentially of a separator 1, a suction attachment 2 and an intermediate piece 3 arranged between the separator 1 and the suction attachment 2, which are each tightly connected to one another.
  • the separator 1 has the shape of a circular cylinder, at the end of which, facing away from the intermediate piece 3 and pointing downward in the drawing, is followed by a frustoconical extension 4.
  • a connecting piece 5 is provided for a hose-shaped feed line.
  • Filter elements 6, in particular in the form of plastic sintered filter cartridges, are arranged in the separator 1 and are attached to a filter plate 7.
