Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for treating material with a container in which a stirrer rotatable about a central axis is arranged, and with a first deflecting device, which is arranged in the container above the stirrer, around a stream of material conveyed by the stirrer Redirect to the center of the container.
  • the invention is therefore based on the finding that the central region of the stirrer in which the axis is located is of subordinate importance as a result of the low acceleration for the stirrer function and should therefore be designed as a coaxial axle body with an increased diameter.
  • the coaxial axle body designates a body formed by the axle itself, a cylinder arranged around the central axis, or another body adapted to keep this middle portion of material free.
  • the material is treated by the stirrer only in a region spaced from the center of the stirrer, and the central region is inaccessible to the material, and therefore there is no possibility of clumping there.
  • the peripheral speed is so high that a good circulation is achieved there and therefore no clumping is to be feared.
  • the container below the stirrer has a bottom and a distance between the bottom and the deflecting device is at most half the maximum diameter of the container between the bottom and the deflecting device ,
  • the distance between the central axis and the radially outer container inner wall in the region of the stirrer approximately to the distance between the Floor and the deflection corresponds. "Approximately” means here a deviation of maximally 30% and preferably maximally 20% of the larger distance.
  • the floor may be formed as a continuous floor surface, as in a kneader, or as a perforated sheet, as in a conditioner.
  • the stirrer or the arms of the stirrer should extend as far as possible in the radially outer regions of the container so that no dead zones arise. It is therefore proposed that the diameter of the stirrer is at least 70%, preferably at least 80% of the maximum diameter of the container in the region of the stirrer.
  • stirrer has one or more arms which extend radially outward from the central axle body.
  • a particularly simple embodiment provides that the first deflection device has a round plate arranged in the container with a central free passage. This is in a simple embodiment, a horizontal plate with a central free passage, which allows the loading of the container with material.
  • the container may also be shaped so that the first deflection device is formed by a constriction on the container. The container thus has a smaller diameter in the region of the deflection device than below the constriction and preferably also a smaller diameter than above the constriction. This makes it possible to use the area above the constriction as feed and buffer area, while below the constriction the reaction area lies with the stirrer.
  • the first deflection device have a central free passage with a diameter of at least 0.8 m having.
  • the free passage may have a diameter of less than 80% or even less than 60% of the maximum container diameter.
  • the water level should be in or above the diameter restriction. For example, if the diameter constriction formed by a plate, the water surface is in the plane of the plate or something above it. This calms the water surface and less energy is lost through wave formation.
  • the free diameter should allow solid to be fed to the lower area. This solid should fall independently in the lower area, so that a feed screw is superfluous.
  • the deflection device need not be made of a solid material, since in each case one material flow can serve as a deflection device for the other material flow. It is therefore proposed that the first deflection device is formed by a material flow conveyed downwards towards the center of the container by a further stirrer arranged above the first stirrer. [21] It has been found that a conveyor above the stirrer, which conveys material to the stirrer, is not necessary and may even be harmful. Therefore, it is proposed that the container on the central axis has at least above the deflection no conveyor that promotes the stirrer.
  • a supply space is provided, which is formed above the deflection device as part of the container.
  • This feed space can also be another container part, a collar or a cylindrical container part.
  • the device when used as a kneader, it is advantageous if it has a tangential feed line to the container.
  • the feed material already has a speed component which can be used in a tangential feed in the container to relieve the stirrer as a result of the feed.
  • Advantageous embodiments provide that a second concentric deflection device is arranged above the stirrer.
  • This second deflection device may have a cone which is arranged concentrically above the stirrer. This cone is in the shape of a cone or a truncated cone and it makes it easier to steer the material in the device.
  • the second deflection device has a truncated cone tapering towards the stirrer in order to redirect the material flow, which is deflected radially inwards towards the central axis, towards the stirrer.
  • two stirrers which are arranged above one another, two truncated cones are used in a corresponding design, the radially larger circular surfaces abut each other.
  • the second deflection device has a truncated cone widening towards the stirrer in order to divert the material flow to the outside.
  • Particularly good mixing results are achieved with devices that have baffles on the radially outer container inner wall. This is achieved, for example, with a container which has a circumferential wall which has at least one circumferential bend in the radially outermost region with an obtuse angle open to the container inside. Preferably, two creases are provided, which also allow to provide a portion of a vertical container wall between these creases.
  • a filling level above the first deflecting device is preferably set in the container.
  • a material buffer is provided and the material itself acts as a pressure on the area in which the stirrer is arranged.
  • the material acts as a pressure on the area in which the stirrer is arranged.
  • An average speed should be 3 to 10 m / s at the radially outermost end of the stirrer, and in practice about 5 m / s is a good value to combine good mixing with economical energy input.
  • the speed of rotation of the stirrer may also be adjusted to urge the material into the radially outer portions of the container such that in the center of the container, preferably in the region of at least 50% of the axis, all material retracts by the centrifugal force is driven outside.
  • Figure 1 shows a simple embodiment of a device according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of the device according to the invention with a truncated cone widening towards the stirrer
  • FIG. 3 shows a device with feed space
  • Figure 4 shows a device with tangential inlet and the stirrer tapering truncated cone
  • FIG. 1 shows a device with two stirrers arranged one above the other.
  • the device 1 shown in FIG. 1 has a container 2, in which a screen plate 4 is arranged as the bottom 3. Concentric with the cylindrical container 2, a stirrer 6 is provided on a central axis 5 directly above the bottom 3. Above the stirrer 6, a horizontally arranged ring 8 with a circular central free passage 9 is provided as first deflecting device 7.
  • the stirrer 6 has a coaxial axle body 10 from which six bent arms 1 1 extend radially.
  • the axle body 10 has a diameter 12 in the region of the stirrer 6, whose length is at least a quarter of the diameter 13 of the stirrer 6.
  • the stirrer 6 is driven via a gear 14 and a motor 1 5.
  • the arms 1 1 rotate about the central axis 5 to circulate material (not shown) between the blank 8 and the bottom 3.
  • the distance 16 between the bottom 3 and the deflection device 7 is at most half the diameter 17.
  • the diameter 1 7 is the maximum diameter of the container 2 between the bottom 3 and the deflection device 7.
  • FIG. 1 shows a particularly small stirrer.
  • a stirrer as shown, for example, in the device 20 is advantageous.
  • the agitator 21 has a diameter 22 which is almost as large as the maximum diameter 23 of the container 24 between the deflector 25 and the bottom 26 of the container 24th
  • the deflection device 25 is a container wall which points radially inwards from the maximum container diameter 21 and through which a constriction 27 is formed on the container.
  • This container has above the coaxial axle body 28 as a second deflection device 29 a cone 30 which is arranged concentrically above the agitator 21.
  • This cone 30 has the shape of a cone or a truncated cone, whose outer surface widens towards the stirrer.
  • stirrer 21 Below the stirrer 21 is a screen plate 31 and below that the motor 32 drives the stirrer 21.
  • Material that passes tangentially (not shown) or from above into the container 24 is thus deflected radially outward from the conical lateral surface of the cone 30 to the stirrer 21 and migrates upwards on the inner wall of the container 24 in the radially outer region to be redirected by the deflector 25 radially inward again.
  • the device 40 shown in FIG. 3 has a funnel 41 which merges into a cylindrical collar region 42 and then into a feed space 44 defined at the bottom by a blank 43. Below the blank 43, the container 45 widens. There, the peripheral wall in the radially outermost region of the container 45 has a first circumferential bend 46, which leads into a short cylindrical jacket region 47 and thereby forms an open to the container inside obtuse angle 48. This is adjoined by another kink 49, which in turn has an obtuse angle 50 which is open towards the container inner side 51.
  • the material thus passes either via the funnel 41 or via a tangential feed line 52 into the feed space 44 and from there through the free passage 53 to the cone 54.
  • the free passage in the exemplary embodiment has a diameter 55 of about one meter.
  • FIG. 4 also shows a device 60 with a second concentric deflection device 61 above the agitator 62.
  • This second deflection device 61 has a truncated cone 63 tapering towards the agitator 62.
  • This truncated cone 63 leads through the tangential inlet 64 in the container 65 conveyed material, which is stirred by the stirrer 62 and flows in radially outer regions of the container 65 upwards, back down to the stirrer 62. This serves one to the central axis of the container 65 concentric conical peripheral surface 67.
  • the motor 68 drives the agitator 62 via the gear 69, which stirs the material in the container 65, and the material is initially given a flow by the agitator shape, the centrifugal forces and the shape of the inner wall 70 of the container 65 up.
  • the material then passes to an inner container wall 71 above the stirrer 62, which deflects the material toward the central axis 66 as the first deflecting device.
  • the material is then deflected over the conical lateral surface 67 of the truncated cone 63 back down to the stirrer 62 out.
  • the material thus revolves around a central ring axis of a torus and stirrer and container shape and the deflection are designed so that as possible no areas with particularly low speed arise.
  • FIG. 5 shows on the device 80 that the first deflection device does not necessarily have to be a container wall or a container installation, but can also be provided by a second material flow.
  • This device 80 has a container 81 in which a first stirrer 84 in the container 81 is driven by a first motor 82 and a first gear 83.
  • the second motor 85 which drives a stirrer 87 in the container 81 via a second gear 86.
  • the stirrer 87 thus causes a flow of material down, while the stirrer 84 causes a flow of material upwards.
  • the lower material flow forms a deflection device for the upper material flow and the upper material flow forms a deflection device for the lower material flow.
  • the material flow 88 caused by the second stirrer 87 thus forms the first deflection device for the material flow 89 formed by the stirrer 84 toward the center of the vessel 90.
  • a double cone 91 is arranged as a coaxial axle body, which has a lower conical lateral surface 92, which tapers towards the stirrer 84, in order to deflect the flow of material 89 towards the stirrer 84.
  • the double cone 91 has on its upper side a conical lateral surface 93, which tapers toward the stirrer 87 and deflects the material flow 88 towards the stirrer 87.
  • the filling level (not shown) is set in the container 45 above the first deflection device 43.
  • the feed space 44 and also the space above it up to the funnel 41 can be used as storage space for material, and in the case of liquid material or a filling with liquid or water, a hydrostatic pressure arises, which acts on the material in the area of the agitator 57.

Abstract

Dans un dispositif de traitement de matériau dans un récipient, dans lequel est disposé un agitateur tournant sur un axe central, il est prévu un premier dispositif de déviation qui est disposé dans le récipient au-dessus de l'agitateur pour dévier un flux de matière, déplacé par l'agitateur, vers le centre du récipient. Selon l'invention, l'agitateur comporte un corps d'axe coaxial dont le diamètre au niveau de l'agitateur est d'au moins un quart du diamètre de l'agitateur. Il est avantageux que le récipient comporte un fond au-dessous de l'agitateur et qu'une distance entre le fond et le dispositif de déviation soit au plus égale à la moitié du diamètre maximal du récipient entre le fond et le dispositif de déviation. Ce fond peut également être conçu comme une plaque perforée.
