  • FIG. 7c the arrangement of three sheet-metal strips 87 with their convex sides on the respective two end regions is shown pressed against one of the other two sheet-metal strips.
  • FIG. 7d shows a cross-section of a spring strip sheet 89 curved in S-shape.
  • FIG. 7e the arrangement of three metal strips 91 is shown in cross section, wherein the metal strips are stacked with convex on concave side against each other.
  • FIG. 7f an arrangement of four sheet-metal strips 93 is shown in cross-section, with two first sheet-metal strips with the respective convex sides being arranged against one another and the two further sheet-metal strips with the convex sides being arranged on the concave outer sides of the first two sheet-metal strips.
  • Sheet metal strips with these cross sections and these arrangements or with similar cross sections and arrangements can be used as electrodes 75 or as electrode sections 71 in conjunction with rigid intermediate elements 73 according to FIGS. 5a and 5b.
  • the edges of the metal strips are as tapered as possible, so that the electrostatic Koronalent- charge runs as homogeneous and reliable.
  • alignment and curvature are contrasted with a self-resetting high-voltage electrode 67 in the operating position (FIG. 8 a) and upon removal of the electrode during, for example, maintenance (FIG. 8 b). Due to the restoring spring force, the electrode is stretched in the operating position (FIG. 8a). The spring force counteracts electrical forces which could cause the electrode 67 to oscillate. Upon removal of the electrode 67 from the exhaust duct 9 this bends due to the applied muscle power of entrusted with the maintenance, installation or cleaning of the plant a person, whereby the removal of the electrode 67 is facilitated.
  • electrode holder 48 or 49 and electrodes 13 will be described functionally.
  • the exhaust gas rising in the exhaust duct 9 of a chimney with a described filter unit 11 or 12 is field-ionized in the passage in the vicinity of the electrode 13.
  • This dust particles are electrostatically charged and deposited on the counter electrode.
  • the inner surface of the exhaust duct 9 can serve here for example as a counter electrode.
  • the resulting particulate matter debris flow is occasionally removed from the chimney sweep in smaller installations, such as in private wood-burning fireplaces and wood heating systems.
  • the cleaning can be carried out from below or from above. However, the procedure is often country-specific.
  • cleaning brushes and brushes 45 may be pushed up by hand. If the electrode 13 itself is flexible or has its holder 48 or 49 flexibly mounted, the electrode 13 and optionally the flexible electrode holder 48 or 49 are pushed by the brush 45 to the side and / or upwards. The electrode 13 thus does not constitute an obstacle to the prescribed cleaning. The cleaning can be done quickly and safely.
  • the flexible electrode holder 48 or 49 can be easily pushed aside because of their flexibility and optionally the electrode 13 are removed.
  • a flexible electrode 13 (such as electrode 67 or 96 according to Figure 5) has been installed, this step is particularly simple, because the bendable electrode kinks when touched or when deflecting the lot and can be easily pulled out of the narrow opening 25 , If deemed necessary, the isolator 31 with mandrel 17 or 18 can also be removed. The opening 25 of the exhaust passage 9 is thereby freely accessible.
  • Electrode 13 nor electrode holder 48 or 49 thus form an obstacle to the prescribed cleaning.
  • the cleaning can be done quickly and safely. Disassembly and reassembly are quick and easy. Since the items to be moved are relatively small and handy, it ensures good stability of the chimney sweep and thus its safety.
  • the electrode holder 48 or 49 and the electrode 13 due to their flexibility without disassembly only to the side to push and introduce the cleaning brush from the exhaust gas outlet opening 95 or from the electrode inlet opening 25 ago in the exhaust duct 9.
  • the exhaust duct can still be used 9 and electrode 13 are serviced and / or cleaned from the roof.
  • the flexible electrode can be removed from the holder and can be brought out of the exhaust gas channel 9 due to its flexibility through the electrode insertion opening 25.
  • the resetting spring forces are all designed in such a way that the springs give way slightly under the forces that act during cleaning and maintenance, but that under operating conditions the parts of the plant remain firmly fixed relative to the chimney and have no vibrations.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un élément de retenue pour une électrode haute tension électrostatique (13), présentant un isolant haute tension (31), au moins un bras (15, 16, 17, 18), côté électrode de l'isolant (31), muni d'un moyen de maintien (27) destiné à maintenir une électrode haute tension suspendue de préférence verticalement au moyen de maintien (27), et au moins un moyen de montage, côté montage de l'isolant (31), destiné au montage de l'élément de retenue sur un emplacement de montage (40) à l'extérieur d'un canal d'évacuation des gaz (9) d'une cheminée. L'invention est caractérisée en ce que l'élément de retenue est équipé d'au moins un élément de rappel (43, 55, 56, 57, 59) qui forme une liaison articulée entre le ou les moyens de montage et le moyen de maintien (27) et qui, lors du nettoyage du canal d'évacuation des gaz (9) à l'aide d'un appareil de nettoyage, permet une déviation du moyen de maintien et le cas échéant d'une électrode haute tension fixée sur ce dernier par rapport à la position de fonctionnement, ainsi qu'un rappel automatique dans la position de fonctionnement.
