  • a prior artificial snow producing and releasing apparatus is an apparatus for producing artificial snow by crushing lumps of ice by means of a blast-type crusher such as an ice crusher into finer snow mingled with ice and releasing it.
  • An apparatus shown in FIG. 7, for example, has a structure in which a rotor blade 34 for crushing is provided inside a casing 33 provided on a base 36 and the rotor blade 34 is covered with the casing 33.
  • a supply port serving both as a blast port 30 from which a blast for blowing artificial snow 38 away is supplied and a supply port 31 from which lumps of ice which are raw materials are supplied is provided at one end on the base 36 at the lower end of the casing 33, and a discharge port 32 from which the artificial snow 38 composed of crushed ice is blown away is provided at the other end on the base 36 at the lower end of the casing 33 on the opposite side to the supply port 31.
  • Lumps of ice 37 supplied together with a blast from the blast port 30 on the base on the right side of FIG. 7 are beaten against the base 36 by the rotor blade 34 rotating at high speed in the casing 33 and crushed into snow mingled with ice to make the artificial snow 38, and subsequently the artificial snow 38 is blown away to a skiing slope from the discharge port 32 by the blast and sprinkled over the slope.

  • the lumps of ice supplied from the supply port 41 are rotationally forwarded by a rotor blade 44 for crushing which rotates at high speed by means of a rotating shaft 45, the lumps of ice are beaten and crushed by the rotor blade 44 and sent to the blast port 40 at the lower end of the casing, and further finely smashed against the base 46 by the rotor blade 44 into snow mingled with ice to make artificial snow 48, and discharged from a discharge port 42 on the opposite side at the lower end of the casing 43 and blown away by a blast.
  • Japanese Patent Laid-open No. Shou 62-182567 discloses an apparatus for shaving the tip of a large lump of ice into with a rotary cutter crusher to produce artificial snow composed of snow mingled with ice while moving the lump of ice forward by a conveyor, sending the artificial snow to a rotary snow throwing machine with a built-in impeller at the back, delivering it into a cylinder by the rotation of the centrifugal impeller, and further adding air from an air jet port to the delivered artificial snow within the cylinder to throw the artificial snow from within the cylinder, or instead of providing the air jet port within the cylinder and adding air to throw the artificial snow from within the cylinder, sucking in air from the opposite side to an artificial snow suction port with the impeller as a double suction type centrifuge to throw the artificial snow from within the cylinder.
  • the front face of the large lump of ice is shaved with the rotary cutter crusher to make artificial snow composed of snow mingled with ice while being moved forward by a conveyor.
  • the apparatus is extremely large-sized, and the producing capacity thereof is inferior in efficiency to that of the aforesaid apparatus in which the pieces of ice are beaten by the rotor blade and the base.
  • the obtained artificial snow is supplied to the rotary snow throwing machine by sending the artificial snow flying by only mechanical force of the rotary cutter. Consequently, a large quantity of artificial snow can not be supplied, and therefore supply efficiency is low.
  • a partition is provided in the impeller to separate the artificial snow and air so that the artificial snow and air do not abut on the same portion of the impeller.
  • the artificial snow that is, flaky pieces of ice adhere to a beating portion of the rotating impeller, which causes the impeller to lose its balance and increases the load.

  • An object of the present invention is to provide a method of efficiently supplying flaky or platy pieces of ice by primary crushing to a secondary crusher with strong discharge pressure of a forced blast and secondarily crushing the supplied pieces of ice into smaller pieces to produce firm artificial snow suitable for slope skiing and similar to natural snow, and throwing the artificial snow far away by an increase in the discharge pressure of the forced blast in addition to centrifugal force given from a rotor blade, and a compact apparatus for carrying out the method and efficiently producing and throwing a large quantity of artificial snow.
  • the main aspect of the present invention is an apparatus for producing artificial snow from flaky or platy pieces of ice and releasing the artificial snow, comprising a rotating shaft, a rotor blade having a plurality of blades disposed along the direction of rotation of the rotating shaft, means for rotationally driving the rotating shaft, a casing enclosing the rotor blade and having a supply port from which the pieces of ice and a forced blast are supplied toward the rotor blade in the shaft direction of the rotating shaft and a delivery port from which the artificial snow produced from the pieces of ice and the forced blast are sent out nearly in the direction of a tangent of the rotational outer periphery of the rotor blade.
  • FIG. 1 is a view showing the schematic structure of an artificial snow producing and releasing system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • Pieces of ice used for the system are primarily crushed platy or flaky pieces of ice.
  • the platy or flaky pieces of ice are produced by means of a primarily crushed pieces of ice producing apparatus 1. Namely, the platy pieces of ice are prepared by producing large plate-shaped ice with a thickness of 7 mm to 8 mm by means of ice making machinery, followed by primarily crushing the large plate-shaped ice, for example, by dropping it, into platy pieces of ice, preferably with the size of about 100 cm 2 ⁇ 7 mm to 8mm.
  • the flaky pieces of ice are prepared by producing ice on the inner wall of a drum by means of drum-type ice making machinery, followed by shaving the ice by blades into flaky pieces of ice, preferably with the size of about 400 mm 2 ⁇ 1.5 mm, by way of primary crushing.
  • the pieces of ice are, however, not limited to the primarily crushed pieces of ice, that is, not limited to the aforesaid type of pieces of ice, but may be produced in any method if the pieces of ice are about the aforesaid size enough to be carried by a forced blast.
  • the pieces of ice produced by the primarily crushed pieces of ice producing apparatus 1 are brought into a rotary blower 2 from a rotary valve 3 of the rotary blower 2 along an arrow 4 in FIG. 1.
  • the rotary blower 2 supplies the pieces of ice from a supply port 6 of a high speed rotary snow producing and throwing apparatus 5 into a cylindrical rotor blade casing 8 via a pipe 2a by a forced blast with a discharge pressure of 0.12 kgf/cm 2 to 0.40 kgf /cm 2 .

  • FIG. 3 is a view showing a rotor blade with a lid of the rotor blade casing 14 of the high speed rotary snow producing and throwing apparatus 5 in FIG. 2 being taken off
  • FIG. 4 is a cross sectional side view showing only the rotor blade casing of the high speed rotary snow producing and throwing apparatus 5 shown in FIG. 2.
  • a plurality of blades for example, six blades 17 are disposed at even intervals around a conical cover 18 provided at the tip of a rotating shaft 9, thereby composing a rotor blade 16.
  • the primarily crushed flaky or platy pieces of ice are secondarily crushed into smaller pieces to produce artificial snow 13.
  • the obtained artificial snow 13 is delivered from a delivery port 7 into a snow throwing hose 10 by centrifugal force given from the rotor blade together with the forced blast.
  • the rotor blade 16 of the high speed rotary snow producing and throwing apparatus 5 is rotated at high speed by the rotating shaft 9 being driven by a motor 11 provided separately of which the frequency is variable.
  • the rotational speed of the rotor blade 16 is as high as 1800 r.p.m. to 3600 r.p.m.

  • the rotational speed of the rotor blade 16 in the present invention is extremely high, as high as 1800 r.p.m. to 3600 r.p.m. Therefore, the rotor blade 16 functions like a turbine and sends the forced blast supplied from the supply port 6 out into the snow throwing hose 10 at further increased speed.
  • the rotation of the rotor blade 16 at high speed and the supply of the forced blast together from the supply port 6 combine to eliminate even the adhesion of flaky pieces of ice to beating portions of the blades 17 of the rotor blade 16, thereby never causing an excess current in the drive motor of the rotor blade 16.
  • the rotating shaft 9 is rotatably supported by bearings 19 on a base 15 and rotationally driven by the motor 11 disposed above the bearings 19 via a belt 20.
