Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of a part of the device shown inFig. 1 . - An embodiment of the device 1 for preparing asphalt, as shown in
Fig. 1 , comprises arotatable heating chamber 2 having anintake end 3 and adischarge end 4, a first rotation driver 5 for rotating theheating chamber 2, abase material feeder 6 arranged at theintake end 3, and a burner 7 arranged at theintake end 3 for heating the interior of theheating chamber 2. - It should be noted that the base material can be either merely aggregates, a blend of aggregates and recycled asphalt, or even merely recycled asphalt. That is, the amount of recycled asphalt can be from 0% to 100%. However, in order to obtain a homogeneous quality of the produced asphalt at least a fraction of aggregates is preferable.
- The
base material feeder 6 comprises apre-heating chamber 8 having afirst end 9 and asecond end 10, whichsecond end 10 is connected with theheating chamber 2, for delivering base material to theheating chamber 2, a base material bin 11, and a basematerial transfer device 12, arranged to transfer the base material from the base material bin 11 to thepre-heating chamber 8, which receives the base material at itsfirst end 9. Thebase material feeder 6 further comprises agas suction device 13 connected with thepre-heating chamber 8 at itsfirst end 9. - The
pre-heating chamber 8 is arranged to feed thebase material 14 into theheating chamber 8. Thegas suction device 13 is arranged to suck gases from theheating chamber 2 through thepre-heating chamber 8. Preferably, thepre-heating chamber 8 is rotatable, and the device further comprises asecond rotation driver 15 for rotating thepre-heating chamber 8. - The
heating chamber 2 is most schematically shown, to merely illustrate a general structure and function thereof. Theheating chamber 2 is cylindrical and can be any knownheating chamber 2 that is suitable, as will be understood by the person skilled in the art, such as the heating chamber disclosed in above-mentionedWO 98/49398 WO 98/49398 heating chamber 2 at the interior thereof. The heated air is enabled to enter the grooves and heat the base material. - The
rotation drivers 5, 15 can be realized by any suitable devices, such as electrically driven friction rollers. Afriction roller 5, 15 rotates thechamber chamber - The
gas suction device 13 comprises afan 16, and afirst duct 17 extending between thefan 16 and thepre-heating chamber 8. Theduct 17 has afirst mouth 18 at thefan 16, andsecond mouth 19 at thefirst end 9 of the pre-heater 8. At least aportion 20 of thefirst duct 17 is inclined, such that it extends obliquely upwards from thepre-heating chamber 8. Theinclined portion 20 comprises, or is constituted by, asloping wall portion 21, sloping downwards from an end of the basematerial transfer device 12 to thefirst end 9 of thepre-heating chamber 8, wherein thesloping wall portion 21 is arranged to receivebase material 14 from the basematerial transfer device 12. The basematerial transfer device 12 comprises any kind of suitable material conveyor, e.g. a belt conveyor. - Consequently, the
first duct 17 comprises aninlet 26 for receiving the base material from the basematerial transfer device 12. Furthermore, thefirst duct 17 comprises a pivotingdoor 27, which is arranged to pivot about a horizontal axis, and which is pivotally attached to awall portion 28 defining an upper edge of theinlet 26. Thedoor 27 is arranged to close the inlet when no base material is fed through it, and to be pushed away by the base material when fed. Thus, thedoor 27 rests on top of the fed throughbase material 14 and minimizes the leakage of hot gases rearwards out of the inlet. Depending on how the door is made its own weight can be sufficient to generate a closing force on thedoor 27, or a biasing spring can be provided. On the other hand, the closing force must not be too large because then thedoor 27 would prevent the base material from passing theinlet 26. - The
gas suction device 13 comprises asecond duct 22, which is arranged between thefan 16 and the base material bin 11, and which is arranged to conduct gas from thefan 16 into the base material bin 11. - The device for preparing asphalt 1 further comprises a

Themixer 23 is arranged to receive heatedbase material 14 from theheating chamber 2 and mix it with the binder, and to output asphalt 25. - The device for preparing asphalt 1 is operated as follows. The
base material 14 is fed, by means of the basematerial transfer device 12 from the bottom of the base material bin 11 to theinlet 28, where thebase material 14 falls down onto thesloping wall portion 21 and slides through theinlet 28, passed thedoor 27 and further down into thepre-heating chamber 8. The base material then moves forward through the pre-heating chamber while being tumbled by the rotating pre-heatingchamber 8, which is slightly sloping down towards theheating chamber 2. In the heating chamber thebase material 14 is also tumbled while being heated by the burner 7. Theheating chamber 2 is slightly sloping down towards themixer 23, and feeds the heated base material into the mixer at itssecond end 4. In themixer 23 thebase material 14 is mixed with the binder the final asphalt 25 is produced and delivered from themixer 23. There are several different ways of providing the mixing function, e.g. by means of a mixing device arranged within themixer 23, or by rotating thewhole mixer 23. - The hot gases, often containing water vapour, generated by the burner 7 are sucked by means of the
fan 16 out of theheating chamber 2 rearwards through thepre-heating chamber 8, i.e. opposite to the feeding direction of thebase material 14, through thefirst duct 17, through thefan 16, and through thesecond duct 22 into thebase material 14. In thepre-heater 8 the tumblingbase material 14 is subjected to the hot gases and becomes pre-heated. When thebase material 14 is wet, the pre-heating primarily involves drying the base material, but also heating it to a certain extent. As regards the pre-heating of thebase material 14 in the base material bin 11, thesecond duct 22 can be arranged to end a distance down into the inner of the bin 11, or at an upper rim of the bin 11. In the latter case, only the base material at and close to the surface is pre-heated, but on the other hand the flow through thepre-heater 8 is kept on approximately the same level independent of the kind of base material in the bin 11. If the second duct ends deep down in the base material and base material contains fine fractions it may become an obstacle to the hot gases, and thereby decrease the flow through the preheatingchamber 8. - While the invention has been illustrated and described in detail in the drawings and foregoing description, such illustration and description are to be considered illustrative or exemplary and not restrictive; the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments.
- Other variations to the disclosed embodiments can be understood and effected by those skilled in the art in practicing the claimed invention, from a study of the drawings, the disclosure, and the appended claims. In the claims, the word "comprising" does not exclude other elements or steps, and the indefinite article "a" or "an" does not exclude a plurality. The mere fact that certain measures are recited in mutually different dependent claims does not indicate that a combination of these measured cannot be used to advantage. Any reference signs in the claims should not be construed as limiting the scope.
