Definitions

  • the invention relates to a discharge aid for poorly flowing bulk goods, which consist of a Containers are to be unloaded, the container being a bottom, a closable by a shut-off valve Outlet opening in the floor, a ceiling, a middle part and a vibrating body includes.
  • Such a discharge aid is known, for example, from DE 196 41 827 C1.
  • the outlet opening of the known discharge aid has an annular flange which is connected to a connecting flange can be coupled such that between the ring flange of the container and the Connection flange a flexible intermediate piece is arranged and the vibrating body over the Connection flange is movable. Movement of the vibrating body causes vibrations in introduced the container, the possible bridging of the bulk material in the container destroy or prevent the bulk goods in order to empty the container constantly Keep flow.
  • the known discharge aids are driven Shaker bodies still no undisturbed discharge of bulk goods from a container guarantee. From the point of time in a cavity inside the container has built up a vacuum above the bulk material, a further outflow of Bulk goods prevented.
  • a ventilation body which essentially from the Auslönöffiiung towards the ceiling of the container to at least extends to the maximum dumping height in the container and over one with the vibrating body in Operationally connected drive can be set in motion to a in bulk Clear passage for ventilation of the cavity above the bulk material in the container.
  • the ventilation body is connected to the vibrating body is.
  • a further development of the invention is characterized by a spring which is connected to the ventilation body and is connected to the vibrating body.
  • the ventilation body has a smooth surface.
  • the ventilation body is elastic.
  • the ventilation body in the middle Container is arranged.
  • a special embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the ventilation body is in the form of a rod, preferably with a substantially round cross section.
  • the outlet opening has an annular flange, which can be coupled with a connecting flange, the ring flange of the container and the Connection flange are arranged movably to each other, and the vibrating body over the connection flange is movable.
  • the connecting flange is part of a first connecting pipe socket in a device for coupling two connecting pipe sockets having containers
  • each of the connection pipe sockets is close to its a movable shut-off valve, in particular the end facing away from the carrying container in the form of a pivoting closing flap, has the shut-off valves from a closed position in an open position by means of one acting only on one of the shut-off valves Swivel drive can be transferred, the driven in the second connection pipe socket Shut-off valve is held, which can be acted upon by the drive, and the second connection pipe socket is floating, so that a vibrating introduced by the drive Movement over the two connection pipe sockets on the vibrating body and the ventilation body is transferable.
  • the invention is therefore based on the surprising finding that a ventilation body through the bulk material up to at least the maximum height of the bulk material in the container an outlet opening in the bottom of the container extends towards the top of the container and can be set in motion together with the vibrating body to move in the bulk material a ventilation passage through the bulk material up to the cavity above the bulk material to knock out in the container.
  • FIG. 1 shows a container for bulk goods with a discharge aid according to the invention in partial cross-section.
  • a container 10 comprises an inlet opening 11 which in its Formed ceiling and can be closed by a lid 12, and an outlet opening 13, formed in its bottom and by means of a flap 14 which represents a shut-off valve is lockable.
  • a mixing body 20 for thorough mixing of the bulk material S and a vibrating body 30 for preventing or destroying bulk material bridges arranged.
  • the vibrating body 30 in the container 10 provided directly and via a spring 31 indirectly connected ventilation rod 32, which from the outlet opening 13 in the direction of the inlet opening 11 to just below the cover 12 extends.
  • the ventilation rod 32 projects above the maximum dumping height A in the container 10 in addition to a cavity H between the maximum dumping height A and the ceiling of the container 10 or the lid 12 protrude into it.
  • the container 10 is mobile and its flap 14 represents a passive closing flap.
  • the mobile Container 10 is over a stationary container, not shown, in particular one Production unit, such as a tablet press, a mixer, a dryer, a reactor or the like, mobile to be docked to the stationary container.
  • the mobile Container 10 is moved such that its outlet opening 13 to an inlet opening the production unit is aligned.
  • the passive flap 14 of the mobile container 10 can then be coupled with an active flap of the production unit.
  • the active and passive closing flap can be found in the disclosure of DE 43 42 962 C1 referenced.
  • the active flap of the production unit is in the closed position forced into an open position via a rotary actuator, the active flap the passive flap 14 of the mobile container 10 as it moves from the one in the figure shown closed position in the open position.
  • all parts to be set in motion namely the active flap with swivel drive and vibrator, arranged on the production unit are so that the mobile container 10 can be moved back and forth without any wiring.
