Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pulper for comminution and suspension of pulp according to the preamble of claim 1 and as from EP 1 731 663 A1 known.
  • Pulpers of this type are mainly used to suspend air-dry pulp or waste paper.
  • the registered material is intensively mixed with water in large pieces, sheets or pressed bales, for which a mixing and crushing rotor is usually used.
  • a pulper consists essentially of a container for the suspension and the already mentioned rotor. In many cases, it also contains a sieve in the bottom area, through which the suspension can be pumped.
  • Flow installations on the container wall are, for example, in the US2002 / 166910 A1 , of the DE 33 04 958 A1 as well as the EP-A-0 122 991 described.
  • the invention is based on the object to improve the known pulper without significant overhead, possibly in the form of a conversion of an existing pulper, in particular, the collection of the material to be improved.
  • the pulper should be able to dissolve faster and / or more economically.
  • the cut in side view drawn pulper the Fig. 1 is a typical form of the prior art.
  • the pulp S is fed into a container 1 together with water W.
  • a mixture of water and pulp which is already partially crushed.
  • This thus provided with coarse and fine solids suspension is displaced by the rotor 2 arranged centrally in the bottom region of the container 1 in drive.
  • the rotor is driven by a motor, not shown.
  • Essential for this pulper according to the invention is that on the inside of the side wall 5 of the container 1 is a substantially vertical Flow barrier 8 is located. This extends with a maximum radial projection F into the trough, which amounts to at least 6%, preferably at least 15%, of the diameter D1 of the container 1.
  • the flow barrier can be formed as a rectangular angle profile which extends perpendicularly from the bottom 7 of the container 1 to above the suspension mirror 9 forming during operation.
  • the front 4 of this profile is rounded.
  • the suspension is thus pulled down by the rotor 2, so that approximately along the center line 3 of the rotor 2, a downward flow is formed.
  • the suspension is conveyed radially outwardly at the bottom 7 of the container 1 and thereby reaches its side wall 5. Overall, this results in a circulation flow. It is advantageous if the center line 3 of the rotor 2 is vertical and aligned with the container 1. As is known, in this described dissolution process by hydraulic forces and by contact between the rotor 2 and pulp, the crushing and suspension of the pulp causes.
  • Paper pulp pieces which have been sufficiently comminuted can, as shown here, pass through a sieve plate 6 into a chamber 10 (eg an annular channel) and be removed as a pulp suspension P.
  • a pulper can be operated both continuously and discontinuously.
  • the screen plate 6 is not essential.
  • the usual consistency, ie the solids content in The suspension P is usually about 2 to 8%, preferably 4 to 7%. It is often possible by the invention, an advantageous increase in the consistency by about 1% in the resolution.
  • FIG. 2 For further illustration shows the Fig. 2 the pulper of Fig. 1 in top view.
  • the holes of the screen plate 6 are not shown. It can be seen that only a single flow barrier 8 with the dimensions already indicated is present.
  • the in Fig. 3 The inventive pulper shown differs from that of Fig. 1 essentially in that the flow barrier 8 'is provided with a front side 4', which runs obliquely with respect to the vertical at an angle ⁇ , so that at the bottom 7 of the pulper the radial projection is smaller than in the upper region, at which the maximum radial projection F is located. This is above the level 11, with which the pulper is operated as intended.
  • Another possibility is to give the bottom 7 'the shape of two concentric truncated cones 12 and 13 ( Fig. 7 ). In this case, the lower truncated cone 12 is flatter than the overlying truncated cone 13th
  • a flow barrier 8 in the dimensions indicated causes a strong vertical shear component to be generated on its contour which deflects the suspension to the center of the container. This creates a very well-trained intake cone in the center of rotation of the trough, which has a very favorable effect on the collection of registered raw material. In this way, the power consumption of the drive is reduced, often can be set higher fuel density and / or even better resolution can be achieved. This effect can not be compared with that of conventional reinforcing profiles on the inner wall of a pulper whose radial extent amounts to only a few percent of the trough diameter. Their contribution to the dissolving effect of the pulper is small
  • the flow barrier 8 ' is provided with a cover 9' which is inclined relative to the horizontal and which lies above the filling level 11, the inclination leading to the outflow of material.
  • Fig. 5 shows a section through the flow barrier 8 'on the line V in Fig. 3 ,
  • Fig. 8 can also be an inclination of the flow barrier in the circumferential direction, preferably in the direction of rotation of the rotor 2, be advantageous, so that the upper part of the flow barrier in the circumferential direction offset from the lower part (at the bottom of the pulper) is. This inclination can further improve the hydraulic properties.
  • An inventive pulper (of the type, as in Fig. 3
  • the rotor 2 has on its moving wings an outer diameter D2 of 1000 mm. He runs close to a flat annular sieve 6, the openings of which he keeps clear of blockages.
  • the flow barrier 8 is mounted, in the form of a right angle WinKelpröfils which extends from the bottom 7 to about the upper edge of the container 1 and projects into the container.
