Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Pelletiervorrichtung für loses Material, insbesondere trockenes Abfallmaterial, mit einem hohlzylindrischen Gehäuse, das eine Achse und einen Preßwiderstand erzeugende radiale Öffnungen in der Gehäusewand aufweist, mit einem sich im Gehäuse um die Gehäuseachse drehenden Antriebselement, mit einem sich im Gehäuse um eine zur Gehäuseachse parallele Achse drehenden Auspreßelement, das das Antriebselement umgibt und mit radial zur Achse des Auspreßelementes strahlenförmig abstehenden Preßstempeln versehen ist, mit einem Getriebe, das das Auspreßelement so um die Gehäuseachse kreisend führt, daß die Preßstempel mit Spiel in die Öffnungen in der Gehäusewand eindringen, wobei sie das Material nach außen pressen, und sich aus den Öffnungen wieder zurückziehen, und mit einem Zuführkanal für das zu pelletierende Material ins Gehäuse.The invention relates to a pelletizing device for loose material, in particular dry waste material, with a hollow cylindrical housing that has an axis and has radial openings in the housing wall that produce a pressure resistance, with a drive element rotating in the housing around the housing axis, with one rotating in the housing about an axis parallel to the housing axis Expressing element that surrounds the drive element and with radial to the axis of the Squeezing element is provided with radially protruding ram, with a Gear, which leads the extrusion element so that it rotates around the housing axis so that Press rams with play into the openings in the housing wall, taking them press the material outwards and pull back out of the openings, and with a feed channel for the material to be pelletized into the housing.

Eine derartige Pelletiervorrichtung ist beispielsweise aus der DE-B 1222895 bekannt. Dort ist das Gehäuse, dessen Achse horizontal verläuft, durch eine die Öffnungen aufweisende Wanne und einen die Wanne abdeckenden Deckel gebildet. Das Auspreßelement weist eine zur liegenden Gehäuseachse parallele Drehachse auf, und ist mit einer Vielzahl von konischen Preßstempeln versehen, sodaß das durch einen seitlichen Schacht in die Wanne zugeführte Material nach und nach von den Preßstempeln durch die Gehäuseöffnungen nach außen gedrückt wird. Das zwischen den Öffnungen in der Wanne liegende Material kann dabei praktisch nicht erfaßt werden, sodaß die Gefahr besteht, daß sich zwischen der Wanne und dem Auspreßelement blockierende Materialschichten aufbauen. Zur Sicherstellung des Spiels, mit dem die Preßstempel in die Öffnungen der Wanne eintreten, wird das Antriebselement durch die beidseitigen Exzenterumlaufgetriebe kreisend geführt, die jeweils ein mit dem Auspreßelement verbundenes, außenverzahntes Rad aufweisen, das in einem gehäusefesten innenverzahnten Ring abrollt. Ein derartiges Getriebe weist bei einem geringen Platzbedarf ein sehr hohes Untersetzungsverhältnis auf, das sich nach der Differenz der Zähnezahlen richtet. Such a pelletizing device is known for example from DE-B 1222895. There is the housing, the axis of which runs horizontally, through one of the openings having tub and a cover covering the tub formed. The Press-out element has an axis of rotation parallel to the lying housing axis, and is provided with a variety of conical ram, so that by gradually feed material into the tub from the side Press stamping is pressed out through the housing openings. The between material lying in the openings in the tub can practically not be detected be, so that there is a risk that between the tub and the Build up the press-out element blocking material layers. To ensure the Game with which the ram enters the openings in the tub, it will Drive element guided by the eccentric planetary gear on both sides, the each have an externally toothed wheel connected to the extrusion element, that rolls in a housing-fixed internally toothed ring. Such a transmission has a very high reduction ratio with a small space requirement, the depends on the difference in the number of teeth.

Die US-A 3 490 390 zeigt eine Pelletiervorrichtung, die vertikale Achsen, einen Gehäusering mit horizontalen Bohrungen und eine oder zwei Stempelwalzen aufweist, deren Durchmesser kleiner als der Radius des Gehäuseringes ist. Die Stempel der Walzen greifen ohne Spiel zahnradartig in die konisch aufgeweiteten Düsen ein, wodurch die Übertragung der Drehbewegung zwischen dem Gehäusering und jeder Stempelwalze erzielt wird.US-A 3 490 390 shows a pelletizer, the vertical axes, one Has housing ring with horizontal bores and one or two stamp rollers, whose diameter is smaller than the radius of the housing ring. The stamp of the Rollers engage gear-like in the conically widened nozzles without play, causing the transmission of rotary motion between the case ring and each Stamp roller is achieved.

Eine erfindungsgemäß verbesserte Pelletiervorrichtung ist nun dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die Achsen des Gehäuses und des Auspreßelementes vertikal verlaufen, daß die Öffnungen in der Gehäusewand in zumindest einer horizontalen Ebene gleichmäßig verteilt angeordnet sind, und daß der Zuführkanal oberhalb der Preßstempel in den Raum zwischen dem Gehäuse und dem das Material rundum verteilenden Auspreßelement mündet.An improved pelleting device according to the invention is now possible characterized in that the axes of the housing and the pressing element are vertical run that the openings in the housing wall in at least one horizontal Level are evenly distributed, and that the feed channel above the Press stamp in the space between the housing and the material all around distributing extrusion opens.

Durch die vertikale Anordnung der Gehäuseachse und des Antriebselementes wird das von oben zugeführte Material allseitig horizontal in die in der Gehäusewand rundum verteilten Öffnungen eingedrückt. Dies verbessert die Belastung auf die einzelnen Teile der Vorrichtung.The vertical arrangement of the housing axis and the drive element will Material fed from above horizontally on all sides into the all around in the housing wall distributed openings depressed. This improves the load on the individual parts the device.

Das kreisend geführte Auspreßelement kann in einer weiteren Ausführung mit Rührflügeln vesehen sein, mit denen das zugeführte, lose Material besser auf die einzelnen Öffnungen des Gehäuses verteilt wird, sodaß eine gleichmäßigere Pelletierung erfolgt. The circularly guided squeezing element can be used in a further embodiment Be provided with stirring blades, with which the supplied, loose material better on the individual openings of the housing is distributed, so that a more uniform Pelleting takes place.

Da die Vorrichtung insbesondere loses, trockenes Material pelletiert, können in einer weiteren Ausführung die Preßstempel und die Öffnungen auch in mehreren Radialebenen angeordnet sein.Since the device pelletizes in particular loose, dry material, in one further execution the press ram and the openings also in several radial planes be arranged.

Die Preßstempel sind bevorzugt auswechselbar und/oder in der Länge einstellbar vorgesehen, wobei die Längeneinstellung die Eintauchtiefe in die Öffnungen verändert. In die Öffnungen sind bevorzugt auswechselbare und/oder in der Länge einstellbare Düsen eingesetzt, wobei deren Längeneinstellung den Preßwiderstand verändert. Die Düsen können ebenso wie die Preßstempel insbesondere aus einem in bezug auf das zu pelletierende Material inerten Werkstoff bestehen. Die Materialien können damit den Anforderungen entsprechend ausgewählt und auch gewechselt werden, also insbesondere korrosionsfest, abriebfest usw. sein. So eignet sich für die Preßstempel besonders ein rostfreier Stahl und für die Düsen eine Hartbronze.The press rams are preferably interchangeable and / or adjustable in length provided, the length setting changes the immersion depth in the openings. Interchangeable and / or adjustable in length are preferably in the openings Nozzles used, their length setting changes the pressing resistance. The Nozzles, like the ram, can be made in particular with respect to the material to be pelletized consists of inert material. The materials can use it selected and changed according to the requirements especially corrosion-resistant, abrasion-resistant, etc. So is suitable for the press ram especially a stainless steel and a hard bronze for the nozzles.

Für die Pelletierung ist ein Preßwiderstand notwendig, der natürlich, um Beschädigungen der Vorrichtung zu vermeiden, nicht zu hoch werden darf. Eine bevorzugte Ausführung sieht daher vor, daß im Austrittsbereich jeder Düse ein den Preßwiderstand regelndes Element vorgesehen ist. Wird der Preßwiderstand zu hoch, so gibt das Regelelement nach, wodurch sich der Austrittsquerschnitt vergrößert und der Preßwiderstand wieder verringert wird. Das Regelelement kann in einer insbesondere einstellbaren Grundstellung nach innen vorstehen, und ist insbesondere elastisch beaufschlagt. Um die Einführung des Materials zu erleichtem, kann sich in einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführung der Eintrittsbereich der Düse bis zum Regelelement hin erweitern.For the pelletizing a pressing resistance is necessary, which, of course, in order To avoid damage to the device, must not be too high. A preferred embodiment therefore provides that a in the outlet area of each nozzle Pressure resistance regulating element is provided. If the pressing resistance becomes too high, the control element yields, which increases the outlet cross section and the pressing resistance is reduced again. The control element can be in one project in particular adjustable basic position inwards, and is in particular elastic applied. In order to facilitate the introduction of the material, in a further preferred embodiment of the inlet area of the nozzle up to Extend control element.

  • Für eine Pelletierung von insbesondere trockenem Abfallmaterial, beispielsweise von Karton- bzw. Papierstaub, Holzspänen usw. zu Brennmaterial, ist eine relativ hohe Verdichtung des Abfallmaterials erforderlich. Pellets aus Karton- bzw. Papierstaub sollten eine Dichte von mindestens 1,3 kg/dm3, insbesondere 1,5 kg/dm3 aufweisen, die bei Düsen mit etwa 2 cm Durchmesser mit Preßkräften von 150 bis 200 kN erzielbar ist.A relatively high compression of the waste material is required for pelletizing, in particular, dry waste material, for example cardboard or paper dust, wood chips, etc., into fuel. Pellets from cardboard or paper dust should have a density of at least 1.3 kg / dm 3 , in particular 1.5 kg / dm 3 , which can be achieved with nozzles with a diameter of about 2 cm with pressing forces of 150 to 200 kN.

    Eine erste Ausführung einer Pelletiervorrichtung ist in den Fig. 1 bis 4 gezeigt. Ein hohlzylindrisches, vorrichtungsfestes Gehäuse 1 weist eine vertikale Achse 5 auf, und ist unten durch eine Bodenplatte 2 und oben durch eine Deckplatte 25 (Fig. 2) geschlossen. Ein Antriebselement 4 weist zwei Lagerzapfen 3 auf, die in der Bodenplatte 2 und der Deckplatte 25 zentrisch in der Achse 5 des Gehäuses 1 gelagert sind. Dem oberen Lagerzapfen 3 ist ein nicht gezeigter Antrieb zugeordnet, jedoch kann stattdessen der untere Lagerzapfen 3 die Bodenplatte 2 durchsetzen und dort ein Antrieb vorgesehen sein. Das Antriebselement 4 zwischen den beiden Lagerzapfen 3 ist zylindrisch und weist eine Achse 6 auf, die zur Achse 5 des Gehäuses 1 und der Lagerzapfen 3 parallel verläuft. Auf dem Antriebselement 4 ist ein ebenfalls hohlzylindrisches Auspreßelement 7 drehbar gelagert. Das Auspreßelement 7 trägt einen unteren Kranz von nach außen abstehenden Preßstempeln 9, die in am Auspreßelement 7 fixierten Stempelhülsen 8 in der Länge einstellbar gehalten sind, ein außenverzahntes Rad 22 am oberen Ende, und nach außen abstehende Flügel 17. Das außenverzahnte Rad 22 greift aufgrund der exzentrischen Anordnung des Auspreßelementes 7 nur über einen Teil seines Umfanges in eine gehäusefeste Innenverzahnung 23 ein, sodaß das Auspreßelement 7 bei Drehung der Antriebswelle 4 um die Gehäuseachse 5 sich nicht mitdreht, sondern sich auf der Antriebswelle 4 um seine Achse 6 verdreht und die Gehäuseachse 5 umkreist, wobei das außenverzahnte Rad 22 in der Innenverzahnung 23 abrollt. Das Gehäuse 1 weist auf der Höhe des Preßstempelkranzes radiale Öffnungen 10 auf, in die Düsen 11 eingesetzt sind. In der dargestellten Ausführung ist die Zahl der Öffnungen 10 um eins größer als die Zahl der Preßstempel 8, die bei der Drehung des Auspreßelementes 7 nach und nach in die Öffnungen 10 eintreten und sich wieder aus diesen zurückziehen. Das zu pelletierende Material wird in den Raum 21 zwischen dem Gehäuse 1 und dem Auspreßelement 7 seitlich durch einen insbesondere mit einer Förderschnecke bestückten Zuführkanal 19 oberhalb der Preßstempel 8 eingebracht und durch die kreisende Bewegung des Auspreßelementes, unterstützt durch die abstehenden Flügel 17 rundum auf alle Öffnungen 10 des Gehäuses verteilt. Die Preßstempel 9 erfassen jeweils eine kleine Menge des zu pelletierenden Materials und führen es in die Öffnung 10 ein, wobei hier ausreichend Spiel vorhanden ist, sodaß die Preßstempel 9 die Ränder der Öffnungen nicht berühren. Die Öffnungen 10 erweitern sich dann zusätzlich nach außen, sodaß die Einbringung des Materials nicht behindert wird. Durch die Längeneinstellung der Preßstempel 9 läßt sich ihre Eintauchtiefe in die Öffnungen 10 einstellen. Erst im Austrittsbereich der in die Öffnungen 10 eingeschraubten Düsen 11 verjüngt sich der Durchtrittsquerschnitt und hier wird der erforderliche Preßwiderstand aufgebaut. Die Fig. 2 und 3 zeigen im Detail eine erste Ausführung einer Düse 11 mit einem um eine Achse 13 schwenkbaren Regelelement 12 für den Preßwiderstand, das durch einen Düseneinsatz gebildet ist, dessen Grundstellung mittels eines Handrades 16 einstellbar ist. Das Handrad 16 ist in einem etwa U- oder klammerförmigen Bügel 15 drehbar gelagert, dessen Seitenschenkel die Düse 11 durchsetzen oder umgreifen und sich an der gegenüberliegenden Seite über Federn 14 abstützen. Der insbesondere selbst aus einem elastischen Material bestehende Düseneinsatz ist dabei so um die Achse 13 schwenkbar, daß im Bereich der Achse 13 der Durchtrittsquerschnitt sich beim Ausweichen des Regelelementes 12 im wesentlichen nicht verändert. Zu diesem Zweck ist der von der Achse 13 nach innen liegende Bereich des Düseneinsatzes abgeschrägt bzw. gerundet (Fig. 2). Das untere Lager des Antriebselementes 3 ist durch eine Dichtscheibe 18 abgedeckt. Das untere Lager 20 des Auspreßelementes 7 ist durch eine das Antriebselement 4 umschließende Dichtung 27 gegen eindringendes Material abgedeckt.A first embodiment of a pelletizing device is shown in FIGS. 1 to 4. A hollow cylindrical, device-fixed housing 1 has a vertical axis 5, and is at the bottom by a base plate 2 and at the top by a cover plate 25 (FIG. 2) closed. A drive element 4 has two bearing pins 3, which in the Base plate 2 and the cover plate 25 centrally in the axis 5 of the housing 1 are stored. A drive (not shown) is assigned to the upper journal 3, however, the bottom journal 3 can instead pass through the base plate 2 and a drive can be provided there. The drive element 4 between the two Bearing pin 3 is cylindrical and has an axis 6 which is related to axis 5 of the Housing 1 and the bearing pin 3 runs parallel. On the drive element 4 is a also hollow cylindrical extrusion 7 rotatably mounted. The extrusion element 7 carries a lower ring of outwardly protruding ram 9, which in Squeezing element 7 fixed punch sleeves 8 are held adjustable in length externally toothed wheel 22 at the upper end, and outwardly projecting vanes 17. The externally toothed wheel 22 engages due to the eccentric arrangement of the Squeezing element 7 only over part of its circumference in an internal toothing fixed to the housing 23, so that the extrusion element 7 when the drive shaft 4 rotates the housing axis 5 does not rotate, but on the drive shaft 4 around it Axis 6 rotates and encircles the housing axis 5, the externally toothed wheel 22 rolls in the internal toothing 23. The housing 1 has at the height of the press ram radial openings 10 into which nozzles 11 are inserted. In the illustrated embodiment, the number of openings 10 by one larger than the number of Press die 8, which gradually turns into the rotation of the pressing element 7 Enter openings 10 and withdraw from them again. The one to be pelletized Material is in the space 21 between the housing 1 and the extrusion 7th laterally through a feed channel 19, in particular equipped with a screw conveyor introduced above the ram 8 and by the circular movement of the Expressing element, supported by the projecting wings 17 all around Distributed openings 10 of the housing. The press rams 9 each capture a small one Amount of material to be pelletized and insert it into the opening 10, being here sufficient play is available so that the ram 9 the edges of the openings do not touch. The openings 10 then additionally expand outwards, so that the introduction of the material is not hindered. By adjusting the length of the Press 9 can adjust their immersion depth in the openings 10. Only in The outlet area of the nozzles 11 screwed into the openings 10 tapers Passage cross section and here the required pressing resistance is built up. The 2 and 3 show in detail a first embodiment of a nozzle 11 with one Axis 13 pivotable control element 12 for the pressing resistance, which by a Nozzle insert is formed, the basic position of which is by means of a handwheel 16 is adjustable. The handwheel 16 is in an approximately U-shaped or bracket-shaped bracket 15 rotatably mounted, the side legs of which penetrate or grasp the nozzle 11 and are supported on the opposite side by springs 14. The particular one even nozzle insert made of an elastic material is so about Axis 13 pivotable that the passage cross-section in the area of axis 13 essentially not changed when the control element 12 evades. To this The purpose is the area of the nozzle insert lying inwards from the axis 13 beveled or rounded (Fig. 2). The lower bearing of the drive element 3 is covered by a sealing washer 18. The lower bearing 20 of the pressing element 7 is by a sealing element 27 enclosing the drive element 4 against penetration Material covered.

    In der Ausführung nach Fig. 4 ist im Austrittsbereich der Düse 11 ein Regelelement 31 vorgesehen, das durch eine Hülse aus Kunststoff gebildet ist. Am Austrittsende der Hülse ist ein aufweitbarer Ring 32 vorgesehen dessen Innendurchmesser kleiner als der Durchmesser der Hülse ist.
