Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for the delivery of bulk material, according to the preamble of claim 1, and to a container with such a bulk material delivery system according to claim 14.
  • a system and such a container is in US 2,740,564 disclosed.
  • Offenlegmgssehrift DE 44 09 105 A1 a container known in which free-flowing bulk material can be discharged through a rotary valve from a discharge opening by bulk material flows in defined amounts in the cells of the wheel and is then released by turning the wheel.
  • the storage containers generally have a conical region tapering in the direction of the lock, by means of which the size of the lock and thus, for example, the weight forces on the slides are reduced.
  • a bulk material delivery system for coal as bulk material in which the distance of the discharge tray from the cover plate is at least as large as the largest grain of the bulk material (coal piece). This makes it possible to avoid cutting off a piece of coal trapped during closing in the bulk material delivery system, since such a piece of coal is pushed into a cavity formed by the spacing between the discharge tray and the cover plate.
  • a disadvantage of the solutions mentioned is in particular that due to the conical shape of the memory on the inflow side of the lock a core flow occurs, through which the bulk material located in the middle of the memory flows faster than that on the walls. As a result, a part of the bulk material remains longer in the storage container. This is especially true for temperature critical fillings of a storage container such as e.g. PET granules in a SSP memory of disadvantage, since uneven residence times, e.g. can lead to uneven properties of the bulk material or can adjust an uneven temperature distribution in the bulk material.
  • a disadvantage of the known bulk material delivery systems is further that jamming of bulk material may occur when closing the bulk material delivery system or by relatively complex measures to prevent the jamming of bulk material, a not always satisfactory result is achieved.
  • Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a system for removal and reliable closure of bulk material from an arbitrarily shaped container, through which it is possible to remove the bulk material evenly, a Bulk material removal with core flow to prevent and so to homogenize the residence time of the bulk material in the container.
  • the object is achieved with respect to the system by the inventively designed system for dispensing bulk material from a storage container according to claim 1 and with respect to the container by a container with such a bulk material delivery system.
  • the cover plate has openings which are arranged substantially in the same pattern as the discharge openings of the discharge floor, and is arranged displaceable relative to the discharge floor, whereby the openings of the cover plate and the discharge openings of the discharge floor for discharging bulk material can be brought into coincidence.
  • an indirect closure of the discharge openings is achieved by dumping the bulk material on the cover plate, wherein due to the distance between the discharge tray and the cover plate no jamming or damage to the bulk material must be feared.
  • the center distance and the number of openings in the discharge tray and in the cover plate are the same size.
  • a distance between the discharge tray and the cover plate is chosen so that a foot diameter of the forming heaps of bulk material is smaller than the center distance of the respective openings. This allows a secure closure without complicated devices.
  • the bulk material delivery system extends substantially over the entire bottom surface of the storage space. This prevents the formation of core flows of the bulk material in the storage space.
  • the bulk material delivery system is arranged substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the container, whereby a simple discharge is possible.
  • Fig. 1 shows in a highly schematic sectional view of a container 1, which in the illustrated embodiment has a storage space 2 with a substantially cylindrical cross-section and tapers for dispensing located in the container 1 bulk material 20 in a flow direction conically to a hopper 3, from which by a Removal opening 4 a part of the bulk material 20 can be removed.
  • the container 1 can be fed through a feed opening 5 with the bulk material 20.
  • the bulk material 20 occupies the entire available space including the conical portion of the hopper 3 in the container 1. Accordingly, upon removal of bulk material 20 through the centered removal opening 4, an uneven emptying of the container 1 takes place, as a core flow forms through which centrally stored bulk material 20 is discharged faster than bulk material close to the edge 20. This results in close to bulk material 20 often considerably longer Residence times in the container 1 as for centrally stored bulk 20.
  • the bulk material 20 can be removed from the conical region of the funnel 3 via a suitable bulk material delivery system 6, so that the bulk material 20 present in the container 1 is uniformly discharged over the entire cross section of the container 1 can.
  • the inventively embodied bulk material delivery system 6 will be described below with reference to the Fig. 2 and 3A to 3B explained in detail in its structure and its operation.
  • a discharge tray 7 is provided, which is arranged generally perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the container 1 as a floor in this and the substantially cylindrical storage space 2 of the container 1 terminates in the embodiment.
  • the discharge tray 7 has recesses 8, which are each provided with discharge openings 9.
  • the recesses 8 are introduced into the discharge floor 7, for example, by milling, pressing, punching or similar suitable methods.
  • the recesses 8 are conical and taper in a direction of flow of the bulk material 20 funnel-shaped.
  • the discharge floor 7 is in Fig. 2 shown in a highly schematic plan.
  • the depressions 8 are arranged as close as possible to each other and designed so that no raised residual surfaces between the recesses 8 remain. In the present embodiment, this is done by hexagonal configuration of the recesses 8 reaches, wherein adjacent recesses 8 each have a common geometric section line 10 which is bent towards the middle of the line. As a result, only a slight amount of bulk material 20 deposits on the remaining surfaces 10, so that the full-surface discharge of bulk material 20 is not impaired thereby.
  • a polygonal base surface of the recesses 8 is advantageous, which can proceed downwards into a cone. This can be done a honeycomb arrangement of the wells.
  • each of the discharge openings 9 has an opening width d 1 of about 30 mm.
  • a center distance m 1 to the adjacent recesses 8 is about 100 mm.
  • the discharge floor 7 is a Abdeckplatte 11 paired, which is provided with an identical distribution of openings 12 as the discharge floor 7 and is spaced therefrom by a distance h.
  • the openings 12 of the cover plate 11 are not arranged in depressions, but merely introduced by stamping or another suitable method in the cover plate 11 and have an edge distance b to each other.
  • the number of openings 12 is n 2 , the opening width d 2 and a center distance m 2 .
  • n 1 n 2 , m 1 ⁇ m 2 and d 1 ⁇ d 2 .
  • the cover plate 11 is arranged displaceably relative to the discharge tray 7.
  • the mobility is in Fig. 3 A and 3B denoted by s and is designed so that in a closed state of the bulk material delivery system 6 according to Fig. 3A the openings 12 of the cover plate 11 have no overlap with the discharge openings 9 of the discharge tray 7.
  • a distance of the openings 12 of the cover plate 11 is determined by that in an open state according to Fig. 3B each discharge opening 9 of the discharge floor 7, an opening 12 of the cover plate 11 is paired, so that the diameter similarly sized discharge openings 9 and the openings 12 are approximately congruent.
  • the openings 12 of the cover plate 11 and the discharge openings 9 of the discharge tray 7 are in the illustrated embodiment in the closed state of the bulk material delivery system 6 each shifted by an amount s compared to an open state, where s half the center distance (m 1 or m 2 ) of the discharge openings 9 and the openings 12 corresponds, so that in a closed state of the bulk material delivery system 6, the openings 12 of the cover plate 11 are positioned between the recesses 8 of the Austragsbodens 7. Consequently, the cover plate 11 has relative to the discharge 7 by the amount s or be moved m1 / 2 and m 2/2 in order to bring to discharge a defined amount of bulk material 20, the openings 12 with the discharge openings 9 to cover.
  • the discharge of the bulk material 20 from the container 1 thus takes place in the embodiment, first on the discharge openings 9 and the openings 12 of the cover 11 into the hopper 3, from which the discharged amount through the removal opening. 4 finally delivered.
  • a uniform residence time of the bulk material 20 is ensured in the container 1, so that the homogeneity of the bulk material 20, for example, with respect to temperature and as a result of its consistency is not disturbed.
  • the shape of the storage space 2 is not limited to a cylindrical storage space 2, there are also other forms of containers 1 conceivable.
  • the bulk material delivery system 6 can also be used standing alone, so that the bulk material 20 is merely poured onto the correspondingly dimensioned discharge tray 7 as heap.
  • an agitator 18 is provided above the discharge tray 7, as in FIG Fig. 1 shown schematically.
  • Another agitator 19 may be arranged below the cover plate 11 in order to move the bulk material passed through the bulk material dispensing system 6 towards the removal opening 4.
  • the funnel 3 may possibly be saved.
  • a device not shown in the figures for reasons of simplification for controlling the cover plate 11 may be formed in any desired manner, for example in the form of an electric motor or other suitable actuating unit.
  • the inventive system for delivering bulk material is not limited to the described translational movement between the cover plate and the discharge tray. Rather, the cover plate and the discharge floor with respect to each other can also be rotated about an axis of rotation. In such an embodiment, however, it should be noted that the shape and size of the holes must change away with increasing distance from the axis of rotation in order to ensure a uniform discharge of the bulk material.
  • inventive system for the delivery of bulk material is not limited to a flat plate shape of the Austragsbodens.
  • the Austragsboden and the cover plate may for example also have dome shape.
  • the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment. In particular, the invention with appropriate dimensioning of the dimensions for any bulk material 20 is applicable.
