Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the intermittent generation of a pressure wave in silos or other containers, in which a tube for releasing the pressure waves, a storage housing surrounding the tube for the accumulation of compressed air and a flat sealing element are present, which in the charged idle state at the inner end of the Pipe is present, on the side facing away from the tube a pressure chamber, on one side with the internal pressure of the pressure chamber and on the other side outside the tube with the pressure of the accumulator housing and in the event of tripping by venting the pressure chamber to establish a connection between the accumulator housing and the pipe lifts up from the pipe end, the storage housing being fillable via a passage which encloses the pressure chamber.
  • a device of this type in which a valve plate can be moved within a nozzle, which alternately seals the tube for releasing the pressure waves or the outlet of the pressure chamber.
  • There is a separate channel for filling the storage housing which is operated using a separate valve.
  • such a device is known from the French company Ermap, in which, instead of the disk sealingly guided in a pipe socket, a membrane is clamped above the valve-side pipe end, which closes off the pressure chamber.
  • the membrane has a calibrated bore outside the surface of the pipe for releasing the pressure waves. Filling takes place via the pressure chamber using the same opening through which the pressure chamber is also vented.
  • the flat sealing element is a non-clamped valve disc, the edge of which is elastic enough on the one hand to let the compressed air from the pressure chamber into the storage housing during filling, and on the other hand is stiff enough to hold the valve disc at least roughly center it.
  • a piston seal is presented on a device of the same type, which is designed to be air-permeable in one direction, but is sealing in the other direction.
  • This requires the use of simple sealing sleeves, which are inherently due to their U-shaped cross-section and without exception have shaft.
  • the valve disc is designed in coordination with the pressure chamber, in such a way that, when it is filled, it lets the compressed air let into the pressure chamber enter the storage housing without any significant resistance, but on the other hand seals it so well against the pressure chamber that it seals in the case of venting the pressure chamber after a filling process, the inner opening of the tube for releasing the pressure waves is safely released.
  • valve disc an extremely soft material quality can be selected for the outer edge of the valve disc, which may well have some ripple in the untensioned state.
  • the rigidity must be of a certain minimum size so that the valve disc remains somewhat centered in the device, since the valve disc is preferably unguided except through the pressure chamber edge or the inner wall of the storage housing. If a very elastic quality is selected for the valve disc for cost reasons or for reasons of the particularly low masses, it may be expedient to reinforce the valve disc with a support disc which is arranged, for example, on the side of the valve disc facing away from the pipe end or as a core insert in the Valve disc is inserted.
  • the device can be charged for a triggering event in a few seconds because the filling is not hindered by a restriction or the like at any point. Due to the quick fillability, the number of devices required for emptying a silo can often be reduced. A prerequisite is, of course, a correspondingly generous amount of air to quickly fill the device.
  • valve disk only has to be held approximately in its position in order to keep it essentially centered. This simplifies the production even further, because blanks punched out of meter goods can be used as valve disks.
  • a very precise central assignment of the pressure chamber to the pipe is not necessary, since this is not important. Even without a central position, there is the desired sealing at the respective points, so that extremely low demands must be placed on the precision of the device. This makes the manufacture cheaper.
  • valve disc must be stiff enough to withstand the differential pressure between the pressure chamber and the pipe in the charged idle state without any significant deformation. It has already been pointed out that the valve disk can be provided with a reinforcement, which should be light-weight for reasons of low inertia. Below such a support disc, the valve disc then acts as a pure seal, which provides a seal between the support disc and the inner tube end when the device is loaded. In the simplest case, the support disk is attached to the valve disk with a central rivet.
  • the support disc consists, for example, of a circular aluminum plate.
  • valve disk from a thin, flexible metal disk, the sealing then being effected by a temperature-resistant ring made of plastic, cork or even aluminum, which is fastened to the metal plate and points towards the inner end of the tube.
  • FIG. 1 of a device consists of a tubular storage housing 1, which is closed at both ends with a lower cover 2 and an upper cover 3 with the aid of conventional screw connections.
  • a tube 5 is welded into the lower cover 2, while there is an opening 4 in the upper cover 3. It is used to hold a valve or a line, at the end of which there is a valve, with the help of which filling with compressed air or quick ventilation is possible at this point.
  • the tube 5 is used for releasing pressure waves, which in turn are used to loosen free-flowing material in silos or other containers that tend to form bridges, stick or are difficult to free-flow for other reasons.
  • a pressure chamber 7 is formed below the upper cover 3 with the aid of a pressure chamber housing 6 and is closed on its lower side by means of a valve disk 10.
  • the wall 8 of the pressure chamber 7 has a smooth surface without abrupt transitions because it serves as a support surface for the valve disc 10 when pressure waves are emitted.
  • the exemplary embodiments shown in the figures of the drawing are available at predetermined locations on funnels or on the inner wall of storage containers or silos in single or multiple numbers and can emit a violent pressure jet in the form of a pressure wave, which has a dissolving effect on free-flowing bulk material.
  • Compressed air is admitted into the pressure chamber 7 via the valve already mentioned, which presses the slightly elastic valve disk 10 at the contact point with the pressure chamber housing 6 to release a passage gap.
  • the storage housing 1 fills with compressed air, the valve disk 10 being pressed onto the inner end of the tube 5 in a sealing manner with increasing force due to the lack of counterpressure within the tube 5.
  • valve disk 10 After filling, the valve disk 10 returns to the starting position shown, in which its edge rests more or less loosely on the pressure chamber housing 6. At this contact point, there may even be residual gaps or small openings; the only thing that matters is that there are no openings that are too large in the contact zone.
  • the area of the annular gap "s" should be chosen so that it corresponds approximately to the cross-sectional area of the tube 5. As a result, there is virtually no traffic jam at this point, which is conducive to rapid emptying of the storage housing 1 through the pipe 5.
  • the light weight of the valve disc 10 ensures a particularly sudden release of the inner end of the tube 5 when triggered, which leads to excellent results.
  • the pressure wave leaving the device is very strong, on the other hand, the range is considerable.
  • the storage housing 1, the tube 5 and the valve disk 10 are circular and are arranged concentrically to one another.
  • Rectangular or square shapes are also possible if appropriate installation conditions or the like call for these shapes.
  • the valve disk 10 is subjected to practically no stresses, if one disregards the pressure on the end of the tube in the loaded idle state and the slight deflection during the emptying of the storage housing 1.
  • Cheapest materials and simplest designs can therefore be preferred so that result in favorable manufacturing costs.
  • the valve disk 10 is provided on its side facing the pressure chamber 7 with a support disk 11 which is fastened with the aid of a clip 20.
  • a bulbous disk 21 can be provided to prevent the valve disk 10 from sliding off the clip 20.
  • the valve disk 10 is centered together with the support disk 11 by the storage housing 1, which is produced as a welded construction including a tube and flanges.
  • the pressure chamber 7 is delimited by a pressure chamber housing 6, which consists of an internally conical ring with a bevel 15. Otherwise, the function is as described above, but the valve disc 10 forms a unit with the support disc 11, which is lifted from the inner end of the tube 5 when triggered.
  • the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 3 differs from the ones described above primarily in that the pressure chamber housing 6 is designed as a simple ring.
  • the support disk 11 strikes the cover 3 of the storage housing 1, which does not further bother.
  • the elastic valve disk 10 rests against the inside of the chamber housing 6, which is designed as a ring, and returns to the state shown in FIG. 5 when it is filled.
  • valve disk 10 and the support disk 11 are shown for clarification, connected by a clip 20 with a bulbous disk 21, in order to be able to recognize details more precisely.
  • the support plate 11 is completely enclosed, that is covered by the elastic material of the valve plate 10 also on the side facing the pressure chamber.
  • this exemplary embodiment is particularly suitable for pressure chambers 7 which are completely flat in themselves. The impact in the event of a trigger is well dampened.
  • the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 6 differs from the exemplary embodiments described above in that the valve disk 10 is held on the side facing away from the pressure chamber 7 with the aid of a support ring 22.
  • the support ring 22 is welded to the storage housing 1 and bears openings 23 at intervals which let the air in the storage housing 1 pass when it is filled. If necessary. the valve disk 10 bulges slightly under pressure when filling between the tube 5 and the inside of the ring 22, so that the outer edge of the valve disk 10 is pulled slightly inwards. This opens the openings 23.
  • valve disc 10 After filling, the valve disc 10, which can be made of a very elastic quality, again assumes the position shown in FIG. 6. The same applies after completion, during which the valve disk 10 is lifted off the tube 5. During this lifting too, the outer edge of the valve disk 10 is pulled slightly inward, but it remains in the region of the support ring 23, so that its position is ensured. In addition, a modification of the attachment of the support disk 11 to the valve disk 10 can be seen in FIG. 6, which primarily indicates that all possible attachments can be considered at this point.
  • the devices presented are generally only used when necessary because they have a relatively high air consumption and compressed air is relatively expensive.
  • Another advantage of the device is that the valve disc 10 closes the tube 5 in the idle state, so that dusts located in the corresponding silo container cannot penetrate the device. A deposit within the tube 5 is harmless and does not last long; At the latest when the next pressure wave is released, these deposits are blown out.
