Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a metering device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • metering devices such as, for example, horizontal screw metering systems with one or more metering screws with a fixed or variable speed, furthermore vibratory troughs with a variable drive, horizontal stirring systems, etc.
  • a particularly frequently encountered embodiment has a container which tapers conically at least in the lower part and in which the outlet opening can be closed by means of a flap or a slide. Powdery and granular materials tend to form bridges in the lower, tapered part. When such a bridge collapses, the inflow quantity in the filling container is suddenly increased. In addition, the filling material tends to stick to the walls of the vessel, to the slide or to the flap, which likewise causes an irregular inflow.
  • a major problem is that of poorly flowing pasty products, the gravity of which is insufficient to generate sufficient filling pressure.
  • the invention solves the problem of a metering which is also suitable for poorly flowing and pasty products to create a device in which bridging and sticking of the filling material to the container wall or closing device is prevented and thus a uniform outflow of the filling material is achieved so that the desired filling quantity can be achieved with high precision and at a high filling speed.
  • a metering container 1 which tapers conically in its lower part and is provided with an outlet opening 2 at the bottom.
  • the dosing container 1 is provided with an outlet nozzle 9.
  • a circular web 15 is arranged around it, which encloses the opening of a cover for a filling vessel, not shown in the figure.
  • a gap is left between the outlet nozzle 9 and the web 15 so that the relative movement required for weighing between the vessel and the metering container is possible.
  • the exit quantity of the Filled goods are regulated with a valve 3, 4. This is made up of a valve rod 3 and a valve head 4.
  • the valve head 4 is disc-shaped at its lower end and has a diameter in this section which corresponds to the outlet opening 2 of the metering container 1.
  • valve rod 3 is enclosed by a hollow shaft 5, to which at least one wiper 6 is attached.
  • the outlet of the valve rod 3 from the hollow shaft 5 is sealed by a stuffing box 11.
  • the passage of the hollow shaft 5 through the container ceiling 12 is sealed with a stuffing box 11.
  • the hollow shaft 5 is rotatably mounted in a gear, not shown in FIG. 1.
  • the outer edge of the scraper 6 runs along the lower part of the metering container 1. When the hollow shaft 5 rotates, the scraper is guided along the vessel wall. This prevents the filling material from bridging or sticking to the vessel wall.
  • the scraper 6 In its lower part, the scraper 6 has an edge which is dimensioned such that it runs parallel to its disc-shaped, lower end in each position of the valve head 4. This prevents the filling material from sticking to the disk-shaped part of the valve head 4 when the scraper 6 is actuated.
  • the wipers 6 have an angle W1 to the vertical. With this angling of the wipers 6, a pressure component downward and an additional swirl are caused during the rotary movement, which, among other things, prevent the filling material from sticking to the outlet nozzle 2.
  • wing elements 8 are attached to the hollow shaft 5 by means of a holding rod, which form an angle W2 to the horizontal plane.
  • a downward pressure component is also exerted on the filling material and a swirl is generated in order to prevent the filling material from sticking in the upper region of the container wall.
  • Pressure component and swirl which can be achieved both by the wing elements 8 and by an above-described angle of the scraper (s), also make it possible to meter difficult-flowing or pasty products in which the force of gravity alone would not produce enough filling pressure .
  • the filling material passes through the filling opening 13 into the dosing container 1.
  • a level measuring device 10 attached to the container ceiling 12 monitors the amount of filling material available in the dosing container 1. With the aid of the level measuring device 10, the replenishment of the filling material from a main container, not shown in the figure, is controlled. Thanks to the level monitoring, the amount of material contained in the dosing container 1 is only subject to slight fluctuations, so that the static pressure prevailing within the filling material remains practically constant and the filling material exits at a reproducible speed for each degree of opening of the valve 3, 4.
  • a filling container 16 is located on a weighing device 17 which is provided with a holder 18 which presses the intermediate lid 14 against the filling vessel 16.
  • the dosing container 1 rests on a support 19.
  • the filling material is fed via a pipe 24 to a conveyor 23 which contains a cellular wheel sluice or a vibrating trough.
  • the conveyor 23 is connected to the metering container 1 via a pipe 25. As soon as the level of the filling material in the metering container 1 falls below a certain minimum, the conveying device 23 is switched on and the metering container 1 is refilled via the level measuring device (not shown in this figure).
  • a gear 21 is mounted on the metering container ceiling 12, which is driven by a motor 20 and drives the hollow shaft (not visible in this figure) with the wing elements and the scraper.
  • An actuator 22 is attached to the housing of the transmission 21 and operates on a pneumatic, electrical or hydraulic basis with or without mechanical implementation. The actuator 22 moves the metering valve leading through the hollow shaft in the vertical direction and, depending on the stroke, releases a larger or smaller opening at the outlet opening of the metering container 1.
  • the dosing device is operated as follows:
  • An empty filling container 16 for example a container or a barrel, is placed on the weighing platform 17.
  • the intermediate cover 14 is pressed with the clamping device 18 onto the upper edge of the filling vessel 16.
  • the filling vessel 16 is automatically tared, ie the weighing device 17 is automatically set to zero.
  • Filling material is fed to the dosing container 1 via the conveying device 23, 24, 25.
  • the hollow shaft with the wing elements and the wiper rotates. The product begins to be filled when the metering valve is fully open.
  • the metering valve As soon as a certain part of the intended filling weight has been reached, the metering valve is brought into a fine metering position, ie only a small gap remains between the metering valve and the outlet opening of the metering container 1. The scraper circling around the metering valve ensures that this small gap is not blocked by filling material that sticks together. If a predetermined minimum level of the filling goods in the dosing container 1 is undershot during the filling process, the conveyor 23, 24, 25 is actuated until the predetermined upper level is reached again. As soon as the preselected final filling weight is reached, the dosing valve closes and the filling process is finished.
