- An embodiment of the filter element is that the ring disk facing the annular space is provided at its edge adjacent to the first ram edge and the second annular disc on its inner wall of the annular space contacting edge with recesses, wherein it can also be provided that the respective other peripheral edge of the annular discs has an O-ring seal. This gives the possibility of a flow through the sintered metal pipe section.
- the invention provides that the protruding from the chamber end of the second plunger is equipped with a change in length, in particular the abrasion of the first plunger, recognizable making electronic or mechanical device.
- a robust, simple and less susceptible to interference design of such an element may be that the protruding from the chamber plunger end is equipped with a pointer to which a fixed scale is assigned.
- Fig. 1 is a simplified sectional view through an overall view of the device according to the invention, in the
- FIG. 5 is an enlarged view of a filter element surrounding the ram or ram.
- the device shown in Fig. 1 in a simplified sectional view, generally designated 1, is used for applying knock pulses on a partially indicated pipe wall 2 in a pressure vessel 3, as used for example in coal gasification plants.
- the device 1 is essentially constituted by a knock pulse generator 4 or actuator triggering the knocking impulses, whose e.g. pneumatically actuated thrust piston 5 in pulses via a piston rod 6, hereinafter referred to as second plunger 6, to a ram, hereinafter called the first plunger 7 transmits, which penetrates the pressure vessel wall 3 and via e.g. a baffle plate 18 attached to the tube wall which introduces momentum into the tube wall. Since the interior of the pressure vessel 3 both has a high temperature of about 500 ° C and a high pressure of e.g. 50 bar, the passage of the first plunger 7 is guided substantially gas-tight in the pressure vessel, including a jacket tube 8 with a pipe socket 9, which is welded to the pressure vessel 3, is screwed.
- a knock pulse generator 4 or actuator triggering the knocking impulses whose e.g. pneumatically actuated thrust piston 5 in pulses via a piston rod 6, hereinafter referred to as second plunger 6, to a ram, here
- the first plunger 7 On the side facing the tube wall, the first plunger 7 is guided in a guide 10 and protrudes with its end facing away from the tube wall outside of the pressure vessel in the end face of a designated 11 tubular chamber, in which also a piston rod, further as the second plunger. 6 designated, is guided.
- a generally designated 12 filter element is provided which is intended to ensure that no fine dust and thus also the fines transporting gas escapes to the outside.
- a compressed gas line 13 in the block flange 14 of the jacket tube 8 is provided in the annular space 15 between the jacket tube 8 and the first plunger 7 to build up a pressure which is slightly higher than the internal pressure in the pressure vessel 3.
- the block flange 14 serves for fastening the jacket tube
- the surrounding the piston rod and the second plunger 6 tubular chamber 11 is equipped in the example shown in FIG. 1 with two mounting flanges 16 and 17, wherein the mounting flange 16 for fixing the tubular chamber 11 on Block flange 14 is used, while the mounting flange 17 serves to attach the knock pulse generator 4 to the tubular chamber 11.
- the guided in the tubular chamber 11 second plunger 6 has at its the first plunger 7 end facing a guide 6a, which is integrally formed in the example of FIG. 1 with the second plunger 6 as a disc and at its end an O-ring Seal, wherein other designs are shown in the following figures.
- the guide 6a can also be formed by a separate annular disc.
- the plunger 6 is also held in a guide 6 b, with its end 6 c protruding from the tubular chamber 11.
- This second guide 6b is part of a flange formed as an annular ring element 21, wherein in the example of FIG. 1 between the flange 12 and the mounting flange 17, a static seal 19 is provided.
- a compensator 20 is fixed, such that the annulus designated 22 between the tubular chamber 11 and the second plunger by pressure-tight fixation of the compensator to the guides 6a and 6b gas-tight relative to the Environment is completed, in the example of FIG. 1 in conjunction with the seal 19th
- the annular space 22 is acted upon via a gas supply line 23 with a pressurized gas, such that the pressure in the annular space 22nd acts on the guide 6a and thus, since it is freely movable and sealed by a seal 24 in the tubular chamber 11, the second plunger 6 presses on the first plunger 7, such that during wear of the plunger 7 a fixed contact of the first plunger 6 on the second plunger 7 is always guaranteed.
