Abstract

The invention relates to a paste container with a follower plate tightly sealing the open side of the container. A multiblade mixing propeller is fitted to the follower plate in such a way that it can be rotated, a short distance beneath the follower plate, around an axle (5) which juts through the middle of the plate. The paste container includes a removal device with an external drive mechanism with which paste can be removed from the container through an opening in the follower plate. The agitator blades and the removal device have the same drive mechanism. The paste container is used in particular for receiving thixotropic pastes.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Pastenbehälter mit einer die offene Behälterseite dicht abschließenden Folgeplatte, an der ein mehrflügeliger Rührpropeller derart angebracht ist, daß er in geringem Abstand unterhalb der Folgeplatte um eine diese mittig durchragende Achse drehbar ist, und einer Entnahmevorrichtung mit außenliegendem Antrieb, mit der Paste aus dem Behälter durch eine Öffnung in der Folgeplatte entnehmbar ist.The invention relates to a paste container with an open container side tightly closing follower plate on which a multi-bladed stirring propeller is appropriate that it is a short distance below the follower plate by one this centrally projecting axis is rotatable, and with a removal device external drive, with the paste from the container through an opening in the follower plate can be removed.

Die Erfindung betrifft insbesondere Pastenbehälter für strukturviskose oder thixotrope Pasten mit einer Vorrichtung zur Herabsetzung deren Viskosität und zu deren Entnahme.The invention particularly relates to paste containers for pseudoplastic or thixotropic pastes with a device for reducing their viscosity and for their removal.

Pastenförmige Waschmittel gewinnen zunehmend an Bedeutung und werden immer häufiger in Wäschereien eingesetzt. Mit pastenförmigen Waschmitteln können die Vorteile von Pulverwaschmitteln, insbesondere deren hohe Wirkstoffgehalte, gewährleistet werden, ohne die Nachteile von Flüssigwaschmitteln, insbesondere deren Wasser- oder Lösungsmittelgehalte aufzuweisen. Derartige pastenförmige Waschmittel sind häufig strukturviskose oder thixotrope Pasten, insbesondere hochviskose Waschmittelpasten, die hauptsächlich in gewerblichen Wäschereien verwendet werden.Paste-like detergents are becoming increasingly important used more and more in laundries. With pasty detergents can take advantage of powder detergents, especially their high Active substance contents can be guaranteed without the disadvantages of Liquid detergents, especially their water or solvent contents exhibit. Pasty detergents of this type are frequently pseudoplastic or thixotropic pastes, especially highly viscous detergent pastes mainly used in commercial laundries.

Strukturviskose oder thixotrope Pasten haben die Eigenschaft, daß ihre Viskosität bei Einwirkung mechanischer Scherkräfte, beispielsweise beim Rühren, Schütteln oder unter Ultraschalleinwirkung, herabgesetzt wird und sie sich nach Unterbrechung der mechanischen Beanspruchung wieder verfestigen. Das bedeutet, daß zur Erleichterung der Handhabung diese Eigenschaft, daß die Viskosität solcher Stoffe unter dem Einfluß zunehmender Schubspannung oder Schergeschwindigkeit abnimmt, genutzt werden kann. Diese Eigenschaften pastenförmiger Waschmittel, insbesondere hochviskoser Pasten, führen aber auch zu einer besonderen Problemstellung bei deren Verpackung und Handling.Structurally viscous or thixotropic pastes have the property that their Viscosity when exposed to mechanical shear forces, for example when Stirring, shaking or under the influence of ultrasound is reduced and they solidify again after the mechanical stress has been interrupted. This means that to facilitate handling, this property that the Viscosity of such substances under the influence of increasing shear stress or Shear rate decreases, can be used. These properties paste-like detergents, especially high-viscosity pastes, lead also to a special problem in their packaging and handling.

In der deutschen Patentanmeldung P 43 32 850 wird ein Pastenbehälter mit Entnahmevorrichtung beschrieben, der für die Aufnahme und Entnahme von hochviskosen Pasten geeignet ist. Er besteht aus einem nach einer Seite offenen Zylinder und einer an der offenen Seite des Zylinders beweglich angeordneten und dicht schließenden Folgeplatte und weist eine Entnahmevorrichtung zur Entnahme und zum Transport der Paste auf. Hierzu ist auf der Folgeplatte ein Motor mit Getriebe angeordnet, an dessen mittig die Folgeplatte durchragender Achse ein mehrflügeliger Rührpropeller angebracht ist. Dieser befindet sich geringfügig unterhalb der Folgeplatte und kann frei in der Paste drehen. wobei die Viskosität der thixotropen Paste infolge ihrer Scherbeanspruchung herabgesetzt wird. Die dadurch leicht förderfähige Paste wird durch den Rührflügel einer Entnahmevorrichtung zugeführt, die die Paste durch eine Öffnung in der Folgeplatte fördert und einen außenliegenden Antrieb aufweist.In the German patent application P 43 32 850 a paste container is included Removal device described for the intake and removal of highly viscous pastes is suitable. It consists of one side open Cylinder and one movably arranged on the open side of the cylinder and tightly closing follower plate and has a removal device Removal and transport of the paste. For this is on the following plate Motor with gear arranged, on the middle of which the follower plate protrudes A multi-bladed stirring propeller is attached to the axis. It is located slightly below the follower plate and can rotate freely in the paste. in which the viscosity of the thixotropic paste due to its shear stress is reduced. The paste, which is easily conveyed as a result, is replaced by the Agitator blades fed to a removal device that the paste through a Promotes opening in the follower plate and has an external drive.

Diese Vorrichtung hat den Nachteil, daß sie sehr aufwendig ist. Die getrennten Antriebe für Rührflügel und Entnahmevorrichtung sind teuer und bereiten aufgrund ihres Platzbedarfs Schwierigkeiten bei der Anordnung oberhalb des Pastenbehälters.This device has the disadvantage that it is very complex. The separate Drives for impellers and removal devices are expensive and expensive due to their space requirements, difficulties with the arrangement above the Paste container.

Das der Erfindung zugrunde liegende technische Problem besteht darin, den bekannten Pastenbehälter mit Entnahmvorrichtung so weiterzuentwickeln, daß er zu geringeren Herstell- und Betriebskosten führt und eine kompaktere bauliche Ausführung erlaubt. Dieses Problem wird dadurch gelöst, daß bei einem gattungsgemäßen Pastenbehälter Rührflügel und Entnahmevorrichtung denselben Antrieb haben.
Der Pastenbehälter nach der Erfindung hat den Vorteil, daß die Verwendung desselben Antriebs für Rührflügel und Entnahmevorrichtung zu einer deutlichen Verbilligung der Herstell- und Betriebskosten führt und der beschränkte Platz oberhalb des Pastenbehälters durch den Wegfall eines Aggregats besser und übersichtlicher genutzt werden kann. Da nur dann zur Herabsetzung der Viskosität der thixotropen Paste und zu deren Förderung gerührt werden muß, wenn auch Paste entnommen werden soll, eignet sich die Zusammenlegung der Antriebe von Rührflügel und Entnahmevorrichtung in besonderer Weise.The technical problem underlying the invention is to further develop the known paste container with removal device so that it leads to lower manufacturing and operating costs and allows a more compact construction. This problem is solved in that the impeller and removal device have the same drive in a generic paste container.
The paste container according to the invention has the advantage that the use of the same drive for agitator blades and removal device leads to a significant reduction in manufacturing and operating costs and the limited space above the paste container can be used better and more clearly by omitting an assembly. Since the thixotropic paste has to be stirred only to reduce the viscosity and to promote it, if paste is also to be removed, the combination of the drives of the impeller and the removal device is particularly suitable.

Diese Antriebskombination ist in einer Ausführungsform besonders günstig, bei dem die Entnahmevorrichtung eine sich um eine senkrecht zur Folgeplatte angeordnete Rotationsachse eines Förderelementes aufweist. Dies ist besonders vorteilhaft durch den Einsatz einer Schnecken- oder Schraubenpumpe zu lösen, die die vom Rührpropeller zugeführte Paste nach außen fördert.In one embodiment, this drive combination is particularly inexpensive which the removal device is a perpendicular to the follower plate arranged arranged axis of rotation of a conveyor element. This is particularly advantageous through the use of a screw or Screw pump to loosen the paste supplied by the stirring propeller promotes outside.

Bei außermittiger Anordnung der Entnahmevorrichtung kann der Abstand zur Rotationsachse des Rührflügels in einfacher Weise durch ineinandergreifende Zahnräder oder einen Riementrieb überbrückt werden. Ist die Entnahmevorrichtung mittig auf der Folgeplatte angeordnet, kann die Rührflügelwelle oder -nabe in besonders vorteilhafter Weise durch die Verlängerung der Förderelementwelle auf der Schraubendrehachse gebildet werden.With an eccentric arrangement of the removal device, the distance to Rotation axis of the impeller in a simple way by interlocking Gears or a belt drive can be bridged. Is the Removal device arranged centrally on the follower plate, the Agitator blade shaft or hub in a particularly advantageous manner by the Extension of the conveyor element shaft is formed on the screw axis of rotation become.

Wird in einer besonderen Ausführungsform, bei der die geförderte Paste einem Injektor zugeführt wird, die Zuführleitung durch ein Absperrelement, beispielsweise durch einen Kugelhahn verschließbar gestaltet, kann in besonders vorteilhafter Weise der Förderstrom kurzzeitig unterbrochen werden, bis sich eine annähern konstante Fördermenge eingestellt hat. Diese und weitere Vorteile werden verdeutlicht bei der Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels, das in beigefügter Zeichnung dargestellt ist. In a special embodiment, in which the conveyed paste is one Injector is fed, the feed line through a shut-off element, For example, designed to be closable by a ball valve particularly advantageously, the flow of flow is briefly interrupted, until an approximately constant delivery rate is reached. These and others Advantages are clarified in the description of an exemplary embodiment, which is shown in the attached drawing.

In der Zeichnung ist ein zylinderförmiger Pastenbehälter 1 dargestellt, der durch eine Folgeplatte 2 dicht abgeschlossen wird, wobei die Folgeplatte 2 gegenüber der Innenwand des Pastenbehälters 1 eine Dichtung 3 vorsieht. Ein Rührflügel 4 sitzt auf einer Rührflügelachse 5, die durch die verlängerte Schraubendrehachse 5 gebildet wird.In the drawing, a cylindrical paste container 1 is shown through a follower plate 2 is sealed, the follower plate 2 opposite the inner wall of the paste container 1 provides a seal 3. An impeller 4 sits on an impeller axis 5, which is extended by the screw axis of rotation 5 is formed.

Das Förderelement 6 weist einen zentralen Förderkanal 7 auf, in dem sich ein Schneckenförderelement 5 dreht. Der gemeinsame Antrieb von Rührflügel 4 und Förderschnecke 5 ist der Motor 8, der über eine Halterung an einer Führung 11 gleitend befestigt und geführt ist. Hierdurch kann die Kombination von Entnahmevorrichtung 6 und Rührflügel 4 einschließlich des gemeinsamem Antriebs 8 vertikal bewegt werden, wenn die Folgeplatte 2 dem bei Entnahme absinkenden Pegel der thixotropen Paste 12 folgt. Die Belüftungsschraube 10 muß geöffnet werden, wenn die Folgeplatte 2 nach Entleerung des Pastenbehälters 1 herausgenommen werden soll.The conveyor element 6 has a central conveyor channel 7, in which a Screw conveyor element 5 rotates. The common drive of impeller 4 and The screw conveyor 5 is the motor 8, which is attached to a guide 11 via a holder is slidably attached and guided. This allows the combination of Removal device 6 and impeller 4 including the common Drive 8 are moved vertically when the follower plate 2 is removed falling level of thixotropic paste 12 follows. The ventilation screw 10 must be opened when the follower plate 2 after emptying the Paste container 1 is to be removed.

Die Fördermenge der Entnahmevorrichtung 6 ist von der Drehzahl, aber auch von anderen Einflußgrößen wie Kanaldurchmesser, Schraubenvolumen und Steigung abhängig. Bei außermittiger Anordnung der Entnahmevorrichtung 6 können über die Auslegung des Getriebes zwischen den Wellen der Entnahmevorrichtung 6 und des Rührflügels 4 die jeweiligen Drehzahlen auf die spezifischen Funktionserfordernisse abgestellt werden. Ist die Welle des Rührflügels 4 durch die Verlängerung der Förderelementwelle gebildet, dreht der Rührflügel 4 mit derselben Drehzahl wie die Entnahmevorrichtung, so daß auf diese Weise unter anderem die Viskosität der thixotropen Paste bestimmt wird. In diesem Fall sollte die Drehzahl des Rührflügels 4 im Hinblick auf die gewünschte Konsistenz der Paste eingestellt werden. Das Fördervolumen wird davon ausgehend durch die Festlegung der anderen Einflußgrößen bestimmt. The delivery rate of the removal device 6 is from the speed, but also of other influencing factors such as channel diameter, screw volume and Slope dependent. When the removal device 6 is arranged off-center can about the design of the transmission between the shafts of the Removal device 6 and the impeller 4, the respective speeds on the specific functional requirements. Is the wave of the Agitator blade 4 formed by the extension of the conveyor shaft, the Impeller 4 at the same speed as the removal device, so that on in this way, among other things, the viscosity of the thixotropic paste is determined. In In this case, the speed of the impeller 4 should be in view of the desired one Paste consistency can be adjusted. The funding volume will depend on it determined by determining the other influencing factors.

An der Öffnung 9 kann eine nicht dargestellte Zuförderung zu einem ebenfalls nicht dargestellten Dosierinjektor angeordnet werden. Die Zuförderleitung zum Injektor kann durch einen Kugelhahn kurzzeitig verschlossen werden. Je nach Länge der Dosierleitungen muß der Injektor nach dem Öffnen des Wasserventils einen gewissen Gegendruck überwinden, bevor er volle Leistungsstärke aufweist. Dies kann dazu führen, daß kurzfristig Wasser in die Pastenleitung gedrückt wird, welches bei extrem kurzen Dosierzeiten, wobei die Pumpe nicht ihren vollen Druck aufbauen kann, zwischen Kugelhahn und Pastenpumpe gelangt. Hier können dann bei längeren Stillstandzeiten der Dosieranlage Aushärtungen mit der hoch alkalischen Paste stattfinden, die zu Verstopfungen des Injektors führen können. Gleichfalls macht der Kugelhahn es möglich, im geschlossenen Zustand die Schlauchleitungen zu spülen, ohne mit der Paste in Berührung zu kommen.At the opening 9 can also be a feed, not shown, to one Dosing injector, not shown, are arranged. The feed line to Injector can be temporarily closed using a ball valve. Depending on The length of the metering lines must be the injector after opening the water valve overcome some back pressure before reaching full power having. This can lead to short-term water in the paste line is pressed, which with extremely short dosing times, the pump not can build up its full pressure between the ball valve and paste pump arrives. In this case, the metering system can be used for longer downtimes Curing takes place with the highly alkaline paste, which leads to constipation of the injector. Likewise, the ball valve makes it possible to closed condition to flush the hose lines without using the paste in To come into contact.
