Definitions
- An invention concerns the construction of an axial extruder, mainly for purpose of extrusion and/or mixing of pastes, where a special construction of the extruder with the deforming element in the zone of transition from the casing to the extruder nozzle is useful for extrusion of materials with problematic rheological characteristics and in cases where the addition of additives (mainly in cases of pure pharmaceutical products) in order for bettering of the products produces undesirable additions, lowers the quality of the product, or makes it more costly, and other typical extrusion procedures cannot be used.
- the invention can be used in various fields of industry, mainly in food industry, in chemical, pharmaceutical industry, but also in field of technology of processing of recycled materials and wastes and in field of processing of plastics. State of the art
- the pastes are substances made of the mixture of the powder material and the liquid. These two components are mixed in such ratio that they create a disperse system which is able, under the outside force effect (for example pressure) to flow through the openings in the baffles of various geometrical shapes.
- the disperse systems in the form of a paste are mainly processed by extrusion; that is, by extruding the pastes through matrices of various profiles, whose shape is the shape of the final product.
- the process of the extrusion itself and the quality of the product is conditioned by the rheological characteristics of the paste. These characteristics, alongside with the geometry of the openings in the nozzle, are the defining parameters determining the size of the extrusion pressure.
- the rheological characteristics of the pastes affect the size of the extrusion pressure greatly.
- the pastes are usually non- Newtonian, multi-phase liquids, whose rheological characteristics depend, firstly, on the volume of the liquid in the paste and also on the shear rate. Shear rate, and the corresponding shear stress in the material is a set of parameters which describes the rheological characteristics of the paste.
- the extrusion pressure's function is not only to extrude the paste with the desirable rheological characteristics through the free cross-section of the nozzle, but the purpose is also - so it is called - to consolidate the paste.
- the principle of consolidation means the pressing of the skeleton, created by the grains of the particular substance (powder) under the influence of the extrusion pressure. There are free spaces or pores between such ordered particles.
- the pressing of the skeleton proceeds until there is a balance between the mechanical solidity, or submissiveness, respectively, of the grainy skeleton and the effecting extrusion pressure.
- the phenomenon itself is much more complicated, though, because there is a liquid in the pores which, alongside the particles, creates a two-part solid-liquid system.
- This undesired phenomenon can be eliminated in multiple ways. Most often, the rheological characteristics of the processed pastes are altered.
- the disadvantage of this approach is that it is difficult to choose appropriate additive or lubricating substance, whose main function is to limit the migration of the liquid, to diminish the inter-particle friction and therefore to positively affect the rheological characteristics of the paste in its transfer through different parts of the extruder.
- the additive is a substance which is, in principle, not desired in the final product from the point of view of the composition of the processed system.
- a piston extruder is known in the prior state of the art, whose basic principle of extrusion is based on the pressing out of the paste by the piston of the cylindrical shape. It allows for unproblematic extrusion only in cases of paste with appropriate rheological characteristics. If the paste is sufficiently prepared in the mixer and the homogenizer, if it has homogenous structure in all its volume, the homogeneity is not disrupted - or it is disrupted only in the limited manner - in the piston extruder.
- the disadvantage of the piston device is that it usually cannot operate continually. If it is necessary to mix the paste during the extrusion - for example due to the addition of the additive - it is not possible for the piston device to operate continually because of the spatial flow. This flow also causes that in the zone of transfer of the paste from the casing to the nozzle the paste is usually pressed by normal stress, whereby the rheological characteristics are mainly affected by the presence of the shear stress, without which there is a danger of halting of the extrusion.
- the basic principle of the screw extruder is based on the extrusion of the paste by one or multiple screws which are placed in the cylindrical casing, on the end of which there is a nozzle or a matrix.
- the advantage of this device is that it can work continually.
- the paste is filled continually through the hopper, whereby the screw delivers the paste towards the nozzle.
- the screw rotates and its shape causes the paste to rotate around the screw's axis at speed different from the speed of the screw's rotation due to the friction of the paste on both the casing's and screw's surface. This friction causes the mixing of the paste and its compression in the screw. It is therefore possible to use the screw for homogenization of the additives added to the extruder during the extrusion, too.
- the ratio of the normal and shear stresses in the paste corresponds to the geometry of the screw.
- the screw extruder with the dome-shaped nozzle operates on the principle of extrusion of the paste by the screw with specially modified end of the screw in the shape of the spatula through the matrix in the nozzle, which is shaped for example in the shape of the hemisphere.
- the screw is modified in such a way that there are spatulas placed at its end, which - during the movement - copy the inner surface of the matrix. This solution allows one to produce significant shear stress just by the inner surface of the matrix.
- the principle of the functioning of the radial screw extruder is in the transfer of the paste to the head by means of the screw, or pair of the screws.
- the spatulas are located at the end of the screw, inclined against the surface of the matrix. In this way, the tapering wedge gap is created between the surface of the matrix and front of the spatula.
- the screw creates a necessary extrusion pressure, it secures the performance of the device, and the sloped spatulas ensure the shear stressing of the paste, which positively affects its rheological characteristics.
- the abovementioned deficiencies are remedied by the construction of the axial extruder according to claims 1 to 17.
- the essence of the invention lies in the fact that the head of the extruder is rotary placed in the construction of the device, which allows it to rotate independently on the rotation of the screw during the operation. This is not a rotary placement which serves only the purpose of exact setting of the head's position, or which is purposeful only during the mounting of the device to the system.
- the head of the extruder has an axis of the placement basically parallel to the axis of the screw. Such arrangement dramatically changes the kinematic relations between the surfaces which effect upon the extruded material.
- the rotary head can rotate both in and against the direction of the rotation of the screw, or it can remain in static position for some time. This allows for vast amount of possible settings of the mutual kinematics of the screw and the opposing head. Hitherto known constructions of the extruders did not allow one to change the relative speed of the inner surfaces of the head as opposed to the concurrently operating surfaces of the end of the screw without the amount of the material transferred to the extrusion zone being affected. This invention solves this deficiency and it offers new possibilities of adaptation to different rheological characteristics of the materials.
- Rotating conical head of the extruder alongside the conical end of the screw creates a tapering space between cones, where the paste is under strong influence of the shear stresses due to the tapering space between cones, but also because of the different circumferential shear rate resulting from the different rotation frequency of the screw with the conical end and the rotating conical head.
- the conical end of the screw as well as the inner surface of the rotating conical head can be equipped by the system of grooves. In case of the conical end of the screw, this can be for example a system of alternately arranged axial transversal grooves and/or short grooves.
- the inner surface of the rotating head can also have a system of alternately arranged axial transversal grooves and/or short grooves and/or long grooves. The grooves prevent the creation of the liquid film between the paste, the surface of the cone and the surface of the head.
- the screw is located in the casing with the hopper.
- the screw is rotary placed in the bearing housing or similar arrangement. It is preferable when the screw is driven by a motor which can regulate the rotation frequency, for example by means of frequency alternator.
- the motor is connected by the coupler with the first torque and screw's rotation frequency sensor.
- the first torque and screw's rotation frequency sensor is connected with the screw by the safety coupling which protects the device in case of a crash.
- the screw is on the other end positioned in the casing of the screw and it is slidably supported in the cross.
- the screw is ended conically, with its end containing grooves in axial direction.
- At the end of the casing of the screw there is a bearing housing of the head with the bearing inside it. Conical head can be placed in the bearing. In the preferable arrangement, the head can be equipped by internal grooves in the axial direction.
- a nozzle is attached to the head's output.
- the nozzle can be rotary placed in the head, so that it can be rotary anchored to the frame. Such arrangement would be preferable if we want to rule out the rotation of the material exiting the nozzle, for example due to the further processing following just after the output from the nozzle.
- a gear connected to the motor can include second torque sensor.
- the second torque sensor can be combined with the sensor of the frequency and direction of the rotation of the conical head.
- the motor allows a gradual change of the frequency and the direction of the rotation.
- the gear presents just one possibility of connection with the motor.
- Another appropriately effective torque gear can be used, for example a chain, a toothed belt, a threaded gear whose thread acts directly upon the head's rim, and so on.
- Rotation frequency of the rotating conical head can be set independently on the rotations frequency of the screw.
- Measuring and control unit records the rotation frequency of the screw, the torque level necessary for the drive of the conical head, the rotation frequency of the conical head and the extrusion pressure in the head, recorded by the pressure sensor.
- Parameter of distancempfL discloses the mutual position of the conical end of the screw and the conical head, and this distance needs to be experimentally set up according to the dimensions of the nozzle and the paste's character.
- the conical end of the screw and the inner surface of the rotating conical head have different conicity.
- the The feltL" distance (or parameter) can be set by changing the heads with different depth of the conical surface, or by a sliding mechanism which can change the mutual distance of the end of the screw and the head, for example by sliding the screw's casing with the head against the static screw.
- the sliding mechanism can be controlled electromechanically from the central control unit. If need arises, this mechanism can be used to diminish the critical pressure in the head.
- the advantages of the construction of the axial extruder with the rotating head according to this invention are apparent from its effects.
- the important feature is the construction solution of the extruder's head, which brings the additional shear stresses into the paste.
- the origin of these additional shear stresses is different to the shear stresses that are produced by effect of the extrusion pressure as a result of the stress of the particular substance passing through the zone of reduction of the free cross-section.
- the additional shear stresses originate as a result of an additional tensity created by the additional construction element other than the screw or the piston. If the stress in the paste in the zone of the transfer from the casing to the nozzle is analyzed as a planar one, then the plane of the main tensity lies in the axis of the device.
- the plane of the additional stress is perpendicular on this plane.
- the analyzed zone is the zone of transfer from the casing to the nozzle. Their resulting effect is achieved by counting the vectors, which creates a spatial stress as a concurrent effect of the normal and shear stresses operating from the main construction element, for example from the screw, and from the additional construction element, for example the spatulas. If these two elements are driven independently and their rotation frequencies can be regulated independently, a high variability is achieved in terms of how the ratios between the main and the additional tensity can be set. If the construction of the additional deforming element is chosen preferably, this element will in the transfer zone bring mainly shear stresses to the paste.
- the primary function of the deforming element is to regulate the additional stress in the paste, mainly the shear stresses, and by this also to regulate the shear rate, which is thoroughly achieved in this case. Its operation results in such effects on the stresses in the paste at the place of the reduction of the cross-sections between the casing and the nozzle, where these stresses cause the change of the rheological characteristics of the paste, which in the end appears as a change in the extrusion pressure while the device's continual operation is preserved.
- This deformation element thoroughly ensures the change of the flow in the zone of the transfer from the casing to the nozzle in such a way that the shear rate is increased and the sheer stresses are increased as well by bringing the energy from the environment to this zone by means of rotation of the deforming element by the motor.
- the measuring and control unit will be equipped by or connected to the two frequency alternators that can regulate the motor of the screw and the motor of the head.
- the measuring and control unit can also be equipped by the appropriate software with the memory to store the settings of the mutual kinematic relations of the screw and the head, depending on the characteristics of the processed materials.
- the tested setting of the motors for the different materials with different characteristics can be stored in the memory of the measuring and control unit, and it can be used for a similar task in the future.
- the appropriate software can also deduce from the data the approximation to the critical values and it can assess the energetic demands of the different settings of the motors.
- the advantage of the device according to this invention is its relatively simple construction, which allows one to keep the high productivity and at the same time to affect the shear and pressure stresses at the critical place of the extrusion.
