Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mixer for gaseous media with a Venturi tube, through which a gas flows in the tube axis direction and in the region of which a narrowed cross-section are provided on the tube wall inlet openings for admixed gas and a method using the mixer.
  • Characteristics of the mixer for gaseous media with a Venturi tube through which a gas flows in the tube direction and in the region of reduced cross-section at the pipe wall inlet openings are provided for admixing gas is that the inlet openings have a variable passage cross-section which during operation during of the mixing process by means of control elements are changeable. With the variability of the passage cross-sections for the admixed gas during operation, a constant fine adjustment of the gas admixture is achieved. This is very important for smooth running and efficient use of energy.
  • the passage cross sections of the inlet openings during operation during the mixing process by means of the control elements are continuously changed according to regulation specifications. With continuous adjustment, the mixer can respond sensitively and quickly to compositional changes of the resource (s) during operation.
  • the region of the Venturi tube with a narrowed cross-section, in which the inlet openings are located, is adjustable with respect to the venturi-adjustable control members, by means of which the passage cross sections of the inlet openings are variable during an adjustment.
  • the control members include at least one, the narrowed cross-section comprehensive control sleeve which is provided with fuel flow openings, wherein in a mutual adjustment of the fuel control openings and the inlet openings, the size of the passage cross sections is variable.
  • control sleeve is adjustable by means of a control mechanism.
  • control sleeve is connected to the control mechanism via a thrust strip, which adjusts the control sleeve according to the specifications of the control mechanism, preferably a flexible to spring-stiff push strip, whereby the passage cross sections are variable.
  • the thrust strip preferably has a certain rigidity. It is supported on the outer housing wall. This has the advantage that the friction on the control sleeve remains almost constant and is not dependent on biasing. A thermal expansion in the housing does not lead to an increase in the friction in the control sleeve, but has only an effect on the angle of rotation of the control sleeve.
  • the thrust strip is attached to a roller of the control mechanism on the one hand and on the control sleeve on the other hand, and that the control sleeve on the narrowed cross-section of the Venturi tube according to the adjustment of the control mechanism of the roller on the thrust plate rotatable is.
  • control sleeve is connected to the control mechanism via a rigid push rod, which adjusts the control sleeve according to the specifications of the control mechanism and thus the passage cross sections are variable.
  • control sleeve is provided with a ring gear, via which a pinion operated by the control mechanism drives a toothed belt with which the control sleeve on the narrowed cross section of the Venturi tube is rotatable according to the specifications of the control mechanism and so that the passage cross sections are changeable.

  • a window is provided in the mixer housing, through which the position of the actuators can be observed.
  • a gas displacement body e.g. in the form of a Zeppelins, if necessary exchangeable, is arranged.
  • the interchangeability is used for rapid adaptation of the cross-section of the constricted Venturi tube, with which an adaptation to any operating conditions is achieved.
  • the gas displacement body is preferably hollow on the side in the flow shadow and there has a corresponding outlet opening for the gas.
  • At least two gas supply lines are provided for admixing gas.
  • the (at least) two gas connections enable the supply of different gases.
  • control sleeve must fit as accurately as possible on the Venturi tube; However, it must not become stiff due to soiling or thermal expansion. According to a particular embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the control sleeve consists of a dimensionally stable and self-lubricating material.
  • the dimensionally stable and self-lubricating material of the control sleeve contains stabilizing and lubricating components.
  • the material of the control sleeve is made of plastic, in particular of a plastic lubricated with a solid lubricant.
  • a suitable material is for example Murylat SP® (PETP-SP).
  • the working method used for mixing the gases uses a mixer with a Venturi tube through which a gas flows in the tube direction and in the region of reduced cross-section flows through admixed by inlet openings provided on the tube wall, wherein the passage cross sections of the inlet openings are changed to adapt the composition of a mixed gas to be supplied to a consumer to the needs.
  • the passage cross sections of the inlet openings are continuously changed in the operation for the mixing process as needed to continuously adapt the composition of a mixed gas to be supplied to a consumer needs.
  • Fig. 1 shows a mixer for gaseous media, which are supplied to a consumer, for example, an internal combustion engine.
  • the mixer 1 consists of a housing 2, in which a Venturi tube 3 is located. Through the inlet 4 of the Venturi tube 3 air is sucked into the engine downstream located.

  • a zeppelin-shaped gas displacement body 10 is arranged along the axis of the Venturi tube 3 by means of struts 9.
  • Fig. 2 shows the core region of the mixer 1 and that the Venturi tube 3 with the conically tapered inlet, the narrowed tube portion 7 and the conically widening outlet 12.
  • the inlet openings 8 can be seen.
  • the Venturi tube 3 can be inserted into the mixer housing.
  • the pipe portion 7 is comprised of a control sleeve 14, which in Fig. 3 in side view and in Fig. 4 is shown as a single part.
  • the control sleeve 14 consists of a dimensionally stable and self-lubricating material. It is possible that the dimensionally stable and self-lubricating material of the control sleeve contains stabilizing and lubricating components.
  • the control sleeve may be made of metal, ceramic, plastic or a composite material.
  • the material should meet the requirements of being dimensionally stable and self-lubricating.
  • An example of a suitable material is Murylat SP®.
  • Such a dimensionally stable and self-lubricating material is for example a plastic.
  • the control sleeve 14 is provided with fuel gas control openings 15.
  • the openings 8 and 15 correspond to each other, but they do not have to.
  • the control sleeve 14 has a collar 16 on which a flexible to feather-resistant push strip 17 is attached.
  • the push rod may, for example, have a rigidity on the order of a cable tie.
  • the other end of the push strip 17 is attached to a roller 18.
  • the roller 18 is seated on a shaft 19 of the control mechanism 6. Rotational movements of the shaft 19 are transmitted to the thrust strip 17, whereby also the control sleeve 14 is rotated, adjusted.
