Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for opening bags in waste mixtures and a method for opening bags in waste mixtures.
  • a device of the type in question is for example from the EP 0 686 562 B1 known.
  • the device disclosed there comprises groups of tearing elements which are movable in such a way that tensile forces can be generated by relative movement between tearing elements of different groups.
  • the tearing forces arise from the fact that change due to the relative movement, the distances of the tearing elements of different groups to each other.
  • the tearing elements are suitable for transferring the tearing forces to sacks present in a waste mixture. This happens because the tearing elements on the bags come to engage and ultimately the material of the bags is torn due to the relative movement. The breaking forces therefore result from the drive power with which the tearing elements are moved.
  • the tearing elements effect and / or assist the conveyance of the waste mixture through the device. This can also lead to the tearing of material of the bags by the mere attack of individual tearing elements on sacks in the waste mixture.
  • the high efficiency of the device or the method of the type in question results significantly from the relative movements of Tear-open elements of individual groups to each other. Only by this relative movement is achieved in terms of energy use satisfactory efficiency in the sack opening by tearing.
  • the tearing of the material of the bags is to be understood as a tearing in the broadest sense, i. that it can also lead to a slitting or slicing of bags, depending on how the exact contact between the tear-open element and the bag designed.
  • all these processes in which the tearing elements act on the material of the sacks and sever them at least in places to open the sacks will be referred to below as tearing operations and the forces transmitted to the sacks by the tearing elements as tearing forces.
  • the tear-open elements are moved in a kind of "stop-and-go operation". This means that a first group of tearing elements initially stands still while a second group of tearing elements moves, creating a relative movement between the tearing elements. After a certain time or after passing through a certain range of motion, the first group of tearing elements would now be set in motion and after a short common movement phase, the movement of the second group is stopped by tearing elements, which in turn a relative movement between the tearing elements of different groups is generated.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide an apparatus and a method of the type in question, which have a lower energy consumption compared to the prior art.
  • the device according to the invention provides a drive control, which is able to adapt the instantaneous power of the drive to the current operating situation.
  • the regulation is preferably carried out as a function of the instantaneous waste stream.
  • the drive power is lowered when comparatively small waste streams are to be processed by the device. Falling in, for example At peak times higher waste streams, the drive power is increased. It has been found that this can be compared to the devices of the prior art, in which the respective moving groups are moved by tearing elements with constant driving power, achieve considerable energy savings.
  • the regulation can act either on the force with which the tearing elements are moved or on the speed of movement of the tearing elements.
  • the control of the drive power can advantageously act on the torque and / or the angular velocity of the rotation of the support elements.
  • control variable for the waste stream supplied to the device for example, the mass flow can be used.
  • another representative variable which is based, for example, on the volume per unit of time to be processed, for the regulation of the drive powers.
  • the device preferably has a pressure device for pressing the waste mixture against the tear-open elements.
  • a pressure device for pressing the waste mixture against the tear-open elements.
  • the pressure device can it advantageously be in the pressure device to an arrangement of individual pressure elements acting individually, for example, by for each pressure element, preferably hydraulically, regulated spring load on the waste stream.
  • This segmentation of the pressure device in individual pressure elements has the advantage that even with a very heterogeneous composition of the waste mixture a secure pressure in the individual pressure elements associated areas of the waste stream is ensured, even if, for example, locally large, non-compressible objects of individual pressure elements of their tear-away Press, since adjacent pressure elements are not affected by this.
  • the device has a pressure control device, which makes it possible to put the pressure device either in a use state or a non-use state.
  • a state of use is to be understood as meaning a state in which the waste stream is acted upon by the pressure device with a force acting in the direction of the tearing elements
  • the state of non-use is to be understood as a state in which the pressure device or pressure elements are at best a rigid barrier form as a limitation of the space available for the waste stream when passing the device.
  • the device according to the invention has a feed device for feeding the waste mixture into the effective region of the tear-open elements.
  • a feed device for feeding the waste mixture into the effective region of the tear-open elements.
  • This can be, for example, a moving floor, which is also regularly referred to as a "walking floor” act.
  • a feed control device is provided which is suitable for controlling the feed rate of the waste batch.
  • a higher-level control device may be present, which serves to control the drive control device, the pressure control device and / or the feed control device.
  • the various control devices may be discrete, only by the necessary signal transmission paths connected devices, for example, to order the respective control devices in close proximity to the units to be controlled, such as electric motors of a drive, such as torque motors.
  • the individual controllers can also be individual circuits on a common circuit carrier, such as a circuit board or a chip.
  • the higher-level control system can preferably provide various, optionally retrievable operating modes in which the drive control according to the invention and optionally advantageous supply and / or pressure control devices be controlled according to certain specifications or the drive power of the tearing elements and preferably the pressure device and / or the feeding device are controlled or controlled according to certain predetermined or predetermined control parameters.
  • a special mode of operation for processing recovered paper rich waste can be provided, in which both groups of tearing elements are moved simultaneously, but the movement is controlled such that nevertheless results in a relative movement between the Aufrpionettin different groups, at the same time a pressure device in a use state is offset.
  • a mode of operation for processing commercial waste rich waste which regularly contain a larger amount of large items, such as household waste rich waste, be provided, in which at the same time moving, preferably at variable speed, both groups of tear the pressure device in a Non-use state is offset to allow large objects to pass through the device unhindered.
  • the device 1 has a plurality of tearing elements 2.
  • the tear-open elements 2 are arranged in groups on annular carrier elements 3.
  • the support elements 3 preferably form a roller-shaped rotary body 4, as in the FIG. 2 is shown. This is preferably designed so that adjacent support members 3 can be moved relative to each other with a differential speed. This makes it possible to carry out the method according to the invention, which provides a relative movement between tearing elements 2 of different groups of tearing elements 2. This can advantageously be done by a group of tearing elements 2, which is arranged on a support element 3, relative to a group of tearing elements 2, which is arranged on an adjacent support member 3, moves when the support members 3 are rotated at different speeds. It is also possible that a part of the support elements 3 is stationary, while the remaining support elements 3 are rotated.
  • the exemplary device according to the invention comprises a pressure device 5, as exemplified in the Figures 3 and 5 is shown.
  • the pressure device 5 is designed in each case as an arrangement of a plurality of arc segment-shaped pressure elements 6.
  • the design of the pressure elements 6 can be adapted in an advantageous manner to the composition of the waste mixture to be processed.
  • a pressure element 6 is shown, which has a tearing elements 2 facing the flat area 7.
  • Such a pressure element 6 is particularly suitable for the processing of small sacks, in particular of sacks with a capacity of at most 30 1.
  • FIG. 6 illustrated exemplary pressure device 5 has a plurality of narrow individual pressure elements 6.
  • the pressure elements 6 of the individual pressure devices 5 are individually loaded by a suitable biasing mechanism with an elastic hydraulic force and / or spring force, which presses the pressure elements 6 against the roller-shaped rotary body 4.
  • a suitable biasing mechanism with an elastic hydraulic force and / or spring force, which presses the pressure elements 6 against the roller-shaped rotary body 4.
  • FIG. 7 a device 1 of the type according to the invention is shown, which has a left in the illustration arranged housing portion 8 for receiving the rotary body 4 and the pressure device 5.
  • area 8 consequently takes place the opening of the bags.
  • the larger right part of the illustrated device 1 is occupied by a feed area 9.
  • This is designed container-like and preferably accessible by a schematically illustrated maintenance hatch 10.
  • the upwardly open configuration of the feed region 9 makes it possible to fill it in a simple manner from above.
  • the feed area 9 advantageously has a feed device (Not shown), which is able to promote the amount of waste in the range of action of the cylindrical rotating body 4 and the tearing elements 2.
  • This may preferably be a sliding floor, which is suitably carried out sealed, ie in which the individual mutually movable elements of the sliding floor, which form the support surface for the piled on the moving floor waste mixture, are sealed against each other, that the fine or fine-grained constituents of the waste mixture to be processed can not pass the moving floor.
  • the device is designed so that the waste mixture can leave the device 1 after opening the bags down.
  • the device 1 is set up for this purpose advantageously on a frame 11, which makes it possible, the device 1, in particular to cover the scope of the tearing elements 2, with a device for removing the waste mixture.
