- the metering device 104 uses a metering air flow 1 10.
- a false air flow 1 12 is entrained by a resulting negative pressure in the metering device 104.
- the secondary air flow 1 12 is dependent on the metering air flow 1 10.
- the false air flow 1 12 flows through a sand tank 1 14 with sand 1 16, where at least partially fluidized by the false air flow 1 12 of the sand 1 16 and the amount of sand is entrained.
- the first two-phase flow 1 18 comprises with the false air flow 1 12 an input air flow of the metering device 104.
- the first two-phase flow 1 18 mixes again in the metering device 104 with the metering air flow 1 10 to a second two-phase flow 120.

- the output airflow of the delivery device 106 is a fourth two-phase flow 136 of sand 16 and air.
- the output airflow transports the amount of sand to the scattering site 126.
- the output airflow 122 of the metering device 104 is dependent on the metered air flow 1 10.
- the input airflow 134 of the conveyor 106 is dependent on the conveying air flow 124.

- the drying air flow at least partially replaces the false air flow, which decreases accordingly to obtain balanced pressure ratios.
- the warm drying air stream now heats and / or dries the metering device 104, the decoupling device 108 and consequently also the conveyor 106.
- the drying air flow flows partly from the mixing area into the sand container 14, where it heats and / or dries the sand. As a result, the sand remains free-flowing and a safe operation of the sanding Device 100 is increased. Another part flows through the secondary air flow channel into the environment, wherein the secondary air flow channel is heated and / or dried.
- a part may also flow through the first pipe 204 and further through the equalizing air flow opening 214 and through the second pipe 210 and the sanding hose, which are heated and / or dried by the drying air.
- the heat transfer element 220 has an elastomeric body surrounding the heater wire 218.
- the radiator 216 When not installed, the radiator 216 is narrower than the groove. In this case, the radiator 216 in the relaxed state to a greater height than the groove is deep. Due to the smaller width, as the groove of the radiator 216 can be easily inserted into the groove.
- the elastomer When the housing parts are joined together, the elastomer is squeezed, whereby the height of the heater 216 adapts to the depth of the groove. In this case, the width of the radiator 216 increases, whereby the heat transfer element 220 gets in direct contact with the housing 200. Due to the direct contact, a good heat transfer from the heat transfer element 220 to the housing 200 is made possible.
- the heater 216 When the heater 216 is in operation without providing the drying air flow, the heat energy is primarily transferred to the housing 200, which heats up.
- the heat transfer element 220 has a structure for providing a heat transfer surface to the drying air stream and a contact surface to the housing 200.
- the heat transfer surface and the contact surface are in a predetermined area ratio.
- the heat transfer surface to the drying air stream is in a predetermined area ratio.
- Drying air flow is formed by a helical, along a first side of the radiator 216 extending rib.
- the rib is formed of the elastomer and abuts against a first side surface of the groove and thus seals adjacent turns of the resulting drying air flow channel from each other.
- the drying air flow is spirally guided by the rib along the radiator 216, resulting in a long distance for receiving the heat energy.
- a second side of the radiator 216 has a corrugated surface structure. The surface structure abuts against a second side surface of the groove. Due to the corrugated surface structure, the contact surface with the housing 200 is reduced with respect to a smooth surface.
- the heat transfer surface is much larger than the contact surface to the different heat transfer coefficients from the radiator 216 to the drying air flow and the radiator 216 to the housing 200 to be considered.
- the rib points in the direction of the metering device 104.
- the corrugated surface faces away from the metering device 104.
- the corrugated surface points in the direction of the metering device 104.
- the rib points away from the metering device 104.
- the elastomer is equipped with two fillers.
- the first filler is designed to increase a thermal conductivity of the elastomer.
- the second filler is designed to reduce the thermal conductivity of the elastomer.
- the elastomer is equipped with the first filler, which is designed to increase the thermal conductivity of the elastomer.
- the elastomer is provided with the second filler, which is designed to reduce the thermal conductivity of the elastomer.
- the doser 104 consists of the main elements housing 200, ejector tube 204, scoop 206, false air feeds 208, of which only one is simplified, and an air connection and an integrated heating element 216 within a heating chamber, the associated oblique bores, of which simplified only one is shown, and the connection for the drying air flow.
- the conveyor 106 consists of the main elements housing 200, pressure equalization chamber 212, equalizing airflow openings 214, of which only one is simplified, manifold, ejector tube 210, hose nozzle and an air connection.
- the housing 200 of the doser 106 is connected to the reservoir 1 14 so that together with the hopper of the reservoir 1 14 can be completely emptied through the device 100 and a uniform sand flow is achieved.
- the doser 104 is connected to the conveyor 106 via an interface between the lower end of the ejector tube 204 and the pressure compensation chamber 212.
- the pressure compensation chamber 212 is formed below as a feed hopper so that the sand can not remain in the pressure compensation chamber 212.
- the false airflow opening 208 and the equalizing airflow opening 214 are both protected from external contamination and from water ingress by their downwardly directed air channels and by a fender held by a spacer.
- the Sandleitschlauch is connected via the hose nozzle with the device 100.
- the stock 1 14 in-stock sand is prevented by the shape of the scoop 206 on autonomous emptying.
- the oblique holes for the drying air flow and the secondary air flow prevent the sand from entering the air ducts and the heating chamber.
- a negative pressure is produced by the ejector bores 202 in the upper part of the ejector tube 204 and, as a consequence, an air flow through the ejector tube 204.
- the negative pressure and the air flow suck the sand and lift it over the potential barrier formed by the scoop 206 and the ejector tube 204.
- a false air flow is sucked in through the bore.
- the sand is dosed in the first two-phase flow as a function of the strength of the Dosierluftstroms and regardless of the tightness of the reservoir 1 14 and introduced into the pressure compensation chamber 212.
- the sandblast In the pressure compensation chamber 212, the sandblast easily expands and the sand flows due to its inertia further into the manifold. Since the sand is slowed down only slightly, its kinetic energy can be used for its further promotion within the third two-phase flow. In this case, a compensation air flow is formed so that the pressure compensation chamber 212 has the ambient pressure, and thus avoids a retroactive effect on the amount of sand in the two-phase flows. Sand, which due to the stochastic behavior does not hit the elbow, gets through the feeding funnel also directed into the manifold. Very slight amounts of sand can escape directly into the bore of the equalizing air flow channel and continue unused without the risk of clogging the system.
- a negative pressure and, as a consequence, an air flow through the ejector tube 210 are produced by the ejector bores 202 in the right-hand part of the ejector tube 210.
- the thereby sucked false air is provided by a part of the compensation air flow, which flows through the bore 214.
- the compensation air flow can flow into or out of the pressure compensation chamber 212 as a function of the operating point. The operating point depends on the metering air flow, the conveying air flow, the resistance of the sanding hose and / or the cross-section of the sand.
- the equalizing air flow is a superposition of the air portion of the second two-phase flow with the additionally required or excessively present secondary air flow for the conveyor 106.
- the airflow present in the ejector tube 210 further conveys the sand through the sand hose, which is connected to the ejector tube 210 via the nozzle Wheel and rail.
- a device 100 for dosing and conveying sand 16 for sanding systems in rail vehicles is characterized in that the pneumatic dosing device 104 and the pneumatic conveyor 106 are decoupled by a pressure compensation chamber 212 with a connected equalizing air flow opening 214.
