Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for transferring powder or granular Particles, in particular carbon particles, containing filter rods from the tobacco processing industry Industry from a sending station to a receiving station a pneumatic conveying the articles in a longitudinal axial sequence Delivery line, with a free particle collecting and discharging delivery line section.
  • the carbon granules (Charcoal) or other granular Filter material included, conveyed by a pneumatic transport device part of the material from the bars is inevitably lost, and it is then in the loose state as stray carbon particles by the conveyor moves, whereby it can contaminate the surface of the filter rods.
  • the invention has for its object to deposit free carbon particles in the Transfer line and thus its sliding contact with the conveyed axially To prevent filter rods.
  • the delivery line section provided in the area of the transmitting station is designed as a line elbow which extends essentially over 90 ° in the delivery direction, the collecting chamber of which is sealed off in the lower area by a cover against the pressure zone of the delivery line section.
  • a further development trapping the carbon particles towards the outlet end of the collecting chamber consists in the fact that the downstream end of the cover - in relation to the conveying direction - is designed as a flag inclined against the curved chamber wall, as a result of which a discharge flow directed against the conveying blowing air is created.
  • An optimal discharge flow is also favored by the fact that the cover as a whole is designed as a spring plate convexly convex against the chamber wall.
  • the collecting chamber - with respect to the direction of delivery - be provided with a discharge lock at the upstream end.
  • the drainage lock can be opened as required by having two manually operated lock valves that control a lock chamber.
  • the drainage lock can have a lock chamber which automatically controls valve actuating cylinders in a time-dependent manner and which ensures that the collecting chamber or lock chamber is emptied at predetermined time intervals.
  • the delivery line section formed by the line bend is designed as a stand unit which can be integrated into the delivery line if necessary.
  • the advantage achieved with the invention is that from an early stage Delivery line section of the delivery line, in which the full transfer pressure is still is effective, a complete removal of carbon particles solely by the high flying force is achieved, with already detached particles also due to the high flow rate the conveying air is not swept away again but from one lower collecting chamber of the collecting chamber while maintaining the delivery pressure be removed.
  • the pneumatic transfer device shown in FIG. 1 essentially consists of a transmitting station 1, a pneumatic conveying line 2 and a receiving station 3, the transmitting and receiving station being, for example, that of the applicant under the designation FILTROMAT "offered facilities can be used.
  • the transmitting station 1 has a conveyor drum 4 which is provided with receiving troughs 6 for filter rods 7.
  • the receiving troughs 6 equipped with suction bores 8 and delimited by webs 9 run parallel to the axis of rotation of a drive shaft 11 of the conveyor drum 4 and are open to the outside, ie on the side facing away from the axis of rotation.
  • the conveyor drum 4 can be driven continuously by motor and interacts with its receiving troughs 6 on the drum circumference side in an upper loading zone B transversely axially with a storage container 12 for removing the filter rods 7 and on the drum end side in a lower discharge zone C longitudinally axially with the stationary pneumatic conveyor line 2 into which the filter rods 7 can be transferred to processing facilities using compressed air.
  • the conveyor drum 4 is assigned a sealing block 13 which can be adjusted or lowered in the region of the delivery zone C and which has a concave counter surface which is adapted to the peripheral surface of the conveyor drum 4.
  • the sealing block 13 is supported exclusively at its two ends with its counter surface sealingly on two concentrically arranged to the conveyor drum 4, stationary support bushings 14 and 16, the outer radius of which corresponds to the radius of the counter surface, but is slightly smaller than the outer radius of the conveyor drum 4. In this way, there is a game 17 and thus a contact-free employment between the drum peripheral surface formed by the webs 9 and the counter surface of the sealing block 13.
  • the drive shaft 11 of the conveyor drum 4 is guided through the support bushings 14, 16 and is mounted outside of the support bushings in a manner not shown in stationary housing walls radially without play.
  • the support bushes 14, 16 themselves are firmly connected via traverse members 18 to a stationary mounting plate, not shown, which also for guiding the sealing block 13 or a supporting body 15 supporting it and for receiving two compressed air pistons 19 for the vertical up and down movement of the sealing block 13 or whose support body 15 is used.
  • the vertical and guided adjustment of the sealing block 13 ensures that an end ventilation gap 21 is exactly maintained in the area of the discharge zone C between the conveyor drum 4 and the adjacent counter surface of the support bush 14.
  • the conveyor drum 4 has a control flange 22 with a control support 23 assigned to each receiving trough 6.
  • the carrying body 15 is penetrated by a shot air bore 24 which extends in the transverse direction communicates within a sealing ring 26 between the support body 15 and sealing block 13 with a transverse bore 27 which can be connected to the control slots 23 of the conveying drum 4.
  • the two compressed air pistons 17 are provided at the end with a pressure plunger 28 which penetrates the support body 15 and which engages with its end face in the center of the sealing block 13 and forms a drag connection 29 within the support body 15 which has a defined radial play.
  • the support bushing 14 adjacent to the discharge zone C is penetrated by an axially parallel transfer bore 32, which is aligned with the delivery line 2, above its sealing surface 31 contacting the sealing block 13.
  • a guide ramp 34 for the filter rods 7 rising in the weft direction (arrow 33) relative to the sealing surface 31 is in the adjacent support and sealing surface of the Sealing block 13 inserted.
  • the conveying drum 4 is assigned a conveying line section 36 integrated into the conveying line 2 in the form of a line elbow 37, which extends essentially over 90 ° in the conveying direction, as shown in FIG.
  • the delivery line 2 has on the underside a correspondingly curved central guide web 39 for the filter rods 7, which on both sides leaves open a connection to a collecting chamber 41 for straying carbon particles which extends below the delivery line 2.
  • the collecting chamber 41 is sealed off in the lower curvature section of the line elbow 37 by a cover 43 designed as a spring plate 42 against the pressure zone of the delivery line 2.
  • the free downstream end of the spring plate 42 which is convexly bulged convexly against the chamber wall, is designed as a flag 44 inclined against the curved chamber wall.
  • the collecting chamber 41 is equipped with a drain lock 46, which according to FIG. 2 is provided with two manually operated lock valves 48 and 49 that control a lock chamber 47.
  • the lock chamber 47 according to FIG. 5 can be controlled automatically and in a time-dependent manner by two valve actuation cylinders 50, 51.
  • the guidance system works as follows: For commissioning, the sealing block 13 is moved from its position (not shown, for example, for cleaning reasons) to the operating positions shown in FIG. 1, in which the freedom of movement of the pressure plungers 28 relative to the support body 15 or the play in the towing connection in the direction of adjustment is so dimensioned that that under practically floating and sealing contact of the sealing block 13 on the support bushings 14, 16, the sealing ring 26 bears under prestress between the supporting body 15 and the sealing block 13, the tensioning beams 18 absorbing the pressure and bending forces exerted on the support bushings 14 and 16 and that Tighten the system.
  • the conveyor drum 4 which is driven by the drive shaft 1 at a constant speed, takes over 6 filter rods 7 in the loading trough B into its receiving troughs from the supply of filter rods located in the storage container 12 above the conveyor drum 4.
  • the filter rods 7 are transferred in the receiving troughs 6 from the conveyor drum 4 from the loading zone B into the delivery zone C, in which the filter rods are to be moved axially directly from the receiving troughs 6 into the pneumatic conveyor line 2 during the rotation of the conveyor drum 4.
  • a receiving trough 6 is aligned with the pneumatic delivery line 2 or with the transfer bore 32 in the support bush 14, then compressed air can flow into the receiving trough 6 via the bore 24 in the support body 15, the transverse bore 27 in the sealing block 13 and via an associated control slot 23 move the filter rod 7 located therein axially in the direction of the arrow 33 and transfer it into the delivery line 2 via the guide ramp 34 which acts as a ski jump.
  • coal particles accumulating at the lower end of the collecting chamber 41 are, if necessary, transferred into the lock chamber 47 by opening the lock valve 48 and disposed of from the lock chamber 47 after closing the lock valve 48 and opening the lock valve 49, so that the delivery pressure in the delivery line 2 remains effective .
