Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fluid injection system for injecting a first fluid into a body of a second fluid.
  • a fluid injection system comprising a tubular member arranged to form part of a fluid line through which, in use, fluid flows under pressure, a venturi contained within the tubular member, means defining first and second volumes arranged to contain first and second fluids respectively, said first and second volumes being separated by a pressure responsive means, the tubular member on a high pressure side of the venturi being in fluid communication by means of a conduit with said means defining said first volume, and a line extending from the tubular member on a low pressure side of the venturi and being in fluid communication with said means defining said second volume, the arrangement being such that, in use a pressure differential is created across the venturi so that the first volume is increased by.fluid passing from the fluid line into the first volume and by movement of the pressure responsive means, the second volume is correspondingly decreased by fluid passing therefrom through the conduit into the fluid flowing through the fluid line, wherein bypass conduit means is provided between the high pressure side of the venturi and the line on the low pressure side of
  • a method of injecting a first fluid with a second fluid which comprises forming a first volume containing the first fluid and a second volume containing the second fluid and separating the volumes by pressure responsive means, passing a stream of fluid through a venturi so as to create a pressure differential in the stream, causing the pressure differential to act on the pressure responsive means to increase the first volume and to decrease correspondingly the second volume and to displace second fluid from the second volume and inject the displaced second fluid via a line into the stream of fluid, wherein the rate of injection of the displaced second fluid into the stream of fluid is modified by an alternate and displacing flow of fluid from the stream set up in the line.
  • FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings there is shown a fluid line 10 through which, in use, a fluid flows under pressure. Coupled within the fluid line 10 is a tubular member 12. Each end of the fluid line 10 is' connected to the adjacent end of the tubular member 12 by any convenient means.
  • the tubular member 12 contains a venturi 14 arranged to cause a pressure drop in fluid flowing through the fluid line 10 in the direction shown by the arrow 16.
  • the tubular member 12 also contains two orifices 18 and 20 on the high and low pressure sides of the venturi 14 respectively.
  • a first conduit 22 extends from the orifice 18 to a pressure tank 24.
  • the pressure tank 24 is of rigid construction.
  • the pressure tank 24 is bucket shaped having a base 26 with an upstanding peripheral wall 28.
  • the conduit 22 enters the pressure tank 24 through its base 26.
  • the pressure tank 24 also contains a bladder or diaphragm or membrane 30 which is of similar shape to the pressure tank 24 and is thus also bucket shaped.
  • the bladder 30 has an upper peripheral flange remote from its base. This flange is clamped between an upper outwardly flared end of the peripheral wall 28 of the pressure tank 24 and a lid 32 by any suitable means such as threaded bolts.
  • the bladder 30 has a resilient wall.
  • the bladder 30 may be formed of neoprene or rubber or any flexible material not degraded by the fluids.
  • a first volume is defined by the pressure tank 24 and the bladder 30 and a second volume is defined by the bladder 30 and the lid 32.
  • a shuttle valve 34 is mounted above the lid 32.
  • the shuttle valve 34 communicates with the interior of the pressure tank 24 through a short pipe 36 which passes through the lid 32. Further, the shuttle valve 34 is in communication with a reservoir 37 through a pipe 38 which passes through the underside of the reservoir 37.
  • the reservoir 37 is provided with a breather 39.
  • a metering line 40 also extends from the shuttle valve 34.
  • the shuttle valve 34 performs such that when no bulk fluid is passing through the fluid line 10 fluid passes under gravity from the reservoir 37 through the pipes 38 and 36 to fill up the bladder 30. This causes the bladder 30 to expand and to move outwardly towards the base 26 and wall 28 of the tank 24. Thus, the second volume is increased and the first volume is correspondingly decreased until the bladder 30 is full.
  • a pressure differential is created across the venturi 14. This closes off the supply from the tank 24 and causes fluid from the fluid line 10 to pass through the orifice 18 and the conduit 22 into the pressure tank 24 and exert pressure on the wall of the bladder 30.
  • the bladder 30 moves inwardly causing the second volume to contract as the first volume is increased. Fluid in the bladder 30 is thus expelled through the line 40.
  • the fluid passing through the line 40 enters the tubular member 12 via the orifice 20 and is , injected into the stream of the fluid line 10.
  • the rate of injection varies approximately according to the rate of flow.
  • the amount of second fluid injected per volume of first fluid remains substantially constant.
  • the minimum flow rate in the fluid line 10 is sufficient to generate a driving pressure differential that will displace the second fluid.
  • the tank 24 can be connected in reverse whereby the bladder 30 is in fluid communication with the conduit 22 and the tank 24 is in fluid communication with the conduit 40. In this case, the bladder 30 expands to expell the second fluid from the tank 24.
  • the separator instead of being in the form of a flexible member, could be in the form of a piston or other member that moves displacing the first and second fluids.
  • the rate of injection of the second fluid into the first fluid may be varied by means of a by-pass conduit 50 which interconnects the conduit 22 with the line 40.
  • conduit 50 causes the first, bulk fluid to flow from the conduit 22 into the line 40 as an alternative to the flow of the second fluid. This inhibits or proportionately displaces the flow of the second, additive fluid into the venturi.
  • the by-pass conduit 50 contains an adjustable valve 52.
  • the valve 52 controls the rate of flow of the first, bulk fluid in the conduit 50. As the valve 52 is opened to increase the rate of flow of the first fluid, the rate of flow of the second fluid through the line 40 is decreased and vice versa.
  • the valve 52 may be substituted by a fixed constriction calibrated to a desired rate.
  • the constriction may be a plug partially restricting the by-pass flow. It may also be a multiposition plug for multiple, pre-set rates of flow.
  • the system may be extended further to incorporate adjustment to the venturi or constriction the purpose of which is to modify the pressure differential (for a given flow rate) and thereby change the range over which the second fluid line and by-pass control the rate of closing.
  • the means of adjusting the venturi could be by mechanical adjustment of a flexible surfaced opening, by sphincter action, or by pumping additional volume of the first fluid into the eye of the venturi. This latter has been found to control the venturi constriction.
  • the apparatus of Figure 1 has a wide variety of uses. ' It may, for example, be used for adding aromatic materials in small volumes as a catalyst to hydrocarbon fuels of low quality to increase the thermal output rating.
  • the apparatus of the present invention provides a safe method of handling highly flammable bulk fluids.
  • the apparatus of Figure 1 may also be used for metering liquid additives into bulk fluids in gaseous form such as the adding of lubricating oil to compressed air flowing to energise pneumatic tools that require constant lubrication such as pneumatic hammers on drilling machinery.
  • the apparatus of Figure 2 is envisaged to be a disposable system whereby once all of the second, additive fluid has been expelled from the bladder 30 the entire apparatus will be discarded and replaced by a fresh apparatus in which the bladder 30 is filled with the second additive fluid.
  • the apparatus of Figure 2 may be used in the same applications as that of Figure 1. However, because of its disposable characteristics it is useful in other applications.
  • the apparatus of Figure 2 is particularly envisaged for use with knap sack sprays which are typically used for spraying herbicides or pesticides.
  • the active ingredient to be sprayed would be contained in concentrated form in the bladder 30 and the bulk fluid would be water carried in a portable tank.
  • the bladder 30 could be so designed that the operator need never contact the concentrated active ingredient. Further, the bladder 30 could be incorporated in a cheap disposable assembly including the entire apparatus of Figure 2 which would be discarded when the bladder 30 was empty.
  • Figure 3 there is shown a variation of the apparatus shown in Figure 1, for supplying a solution to a stand pipe outlet at a height of, for example, about 3 or 4 metres.
  • the apparatus shown in Figure 3 comprises a mains supply waterline 60 which feeds through a main on-off valve 62 to a tubular member 64 which contains a venturi in similar manner to the tubular member 12 of Figure 1.
  • the mains supply line 60 then continues on horizontally for a distance and then turns through 90° for a distance of about 3 or 4 metres to terminate in a stand pipe outlet 66.
  • the apparatus of Figure 3 further comprises a reservoir 68 of concentrate which is typically at a height less than that of the standpipe 66.
  • the apparatus of Figure 3 further comprises a dosing tank 70 which is similar to the tank 24 of Figure 1.
  • the dosing tank 70 is arranged to be fed with fresh concentrate via a gravity fed line 72 from the tank 68.
  • the line 72 comprises a shuttle valve 74 similar to the shuttle valve 34 of
  • a line 76 leads from the upper end of the tank 70 via the shuttle valve 74 to the upper end of an isolating valve 78 to be described in detail hereinafter. The line 76 then proceeds to a low pressure side of the tubular member 64.
  • a conduit 80 leads from a high pressure side of the tubular member 64 to the lower end of the isolating valve 78 and then to the lower end of the tank 70. Still further, a metering line 82 branches from the line 80 through a control valve 84 and joins with the line 76. The valve 84 performs the same function as the valve 52 of the apparatus of Figure 1.
  • the isolating valve 78 is moved between operating and non-operating positions by means of a diaphragm actuator 86.
  • the diaphragm actuator 86 is connected on one side to the mains line 60 upstream of the valve 62 by means of a line 88 and to the conduit 80 by means of a line 90.
  • the isolating valve 78 also comprises a drain member 92 at atmospheric pressure.
  • the apparatus of Figure 3 operates in similar manner to that of Figure 1 in that water is fed along the mains line 60 and thus mains pressure is applied along the line 80 to the tank 70. This causes concentrate to be expelled from the tank 70 along the line 76 to the low pressure side of the tubular member 64.
  • the rate of flow of concentrate may be varied by opening or closing the control valve 84.
  • the tank 70 can be replenished with concentrate from the reservoir 68 under the influence of gravity through the shuttle valve74. However, if it is decided to cease supplying liquid to the outlet 66 and the valve 62 is closed then -the downstream portion of the line 60 from the valve 62 is filled with water which has a substantial head. Thus, through the line 80 a substantial pressure is still exerted on the tank 70 which prevents replenishment of the concentrate in the tank 70.
  • the valve 78 in Figure 4 includes a valve body 100 comprising a longitudinally extending cylindrically shaped recess 102. There is also a first port 104 arranged to be connected to the line 76 from the tank 70, a second port 106 arranged to be connected to the line 76 leading to the tubular member 64, a third port 108 is arranged to be connected to the line 80 leading to the tank 70 and a fourth port 110 arranged to be connected to the line 80 leading from the tubular member 64.
  • the recess 102 contains a longitudinally slidable valve spool 112 arranged to be operatively connected to the diaphragm actuator 86.
  • the spool 112 has a first intermediate cylindrical projection 114 and a second endmost cylindrical projection 116.
  • the upper end of the recess 102 as seen in Figure 4 is blind and a coil spring is located between the blind end of the recess 102. and the spool 112.
  • the spring 102 urges the spool 112 downwardly to the position shown in Figure 4. In this position the concentrate can flow through the ports 104 and 106 along the line 76. Further, water can flow through the ports 110 and 108 along the line 80 to the tank 70.
  • the projection 116 seals off the ports 104, 106 from the ports 108, 110 whilst the projection 114 seals off the ports 108, 110 from the drain member 92.
  • valve 62 is closed there is a higher pressure from the mains upstream of the valve 62 than there is from the elevated outlet 66.
  • the valve spool 112 blocks the ports 104 and 106 by means of the cylindrical projection 116 and cuts off the port 110 from the port 108 by means of the cylindrical projection 114.
  • the tank 70 is isolated from the pressure in the line 60 and the water in the line 80 between the isolating valve 78 and the tank 70 drains away through the port 108 and the drain member 92. This releases pressure on the bladder in the tank 70 and allows the shuttle in the valve 74 to fall so allowing concentrate to flow along the line 72 under the influence of gravity to refill the bladder.
  • the shuttle valve of Figure 5 includes an upper part 120 and a lower part 122 which are arranged to be threadedly engaged with one another.
  • the upper part 120 comprises an internal duct 124 comprising an intermediate tapered portion 126 provided with an "0" ring seal 128.
  • the lower part 122 comprises a duct 130 with a narrow upper part 132. Further, the lower part 122 includes adjacent its upper end an L-shaped port 134.
  • the valve shown in Figure 5 further comprises a shuttle 136 which comprises a tapered upper portion 138.
  • the tapered upper portion contains an internal "O" ring seal 140.
  • the port 134 is connected to the line 40 in Figure 1 or the line 76 in Figure 3.
  • fluid pressure is applied through the port 132 so that the fluid from the bladder can be fed to the tubular member containing the venturi.
  • This causes the shuttle 136 to rise until the tapered portions 126 and 138 are engaged with one another and a seal is established by the seal 128.
  • the shuttle 136 falls under the influence of gravity until it rests on a shoulder 142 adjacent the port 134. In this position the port 134 is sealed by the sealed off 140 and fresh concentrate can flow under the influence of gravity through the ports 124 and 130 into the bladder.
